Bill nodded and said calmly, “I understand, but you came at the wrong time. Roman just left in the day. You can only kill me today. What a pity.”
The leader: “...”
What was wrong with this person? Was he not afraid at all? Was he so unafraid of death?!
He was a little lost at this behavior.
On the other side, the others in the camp were much more normal. Their expressions changed drastically, and they were left terrified and in despair.
The Royal Demon Hunter Army was a special force directly under the Empire. In the past few years, they had carried out a large number of dangerous missions such as assassination, reconnaissance, and invasion of the enemy’s rear. They could be said to be infamous, and almost everyone knew about them.
This special unit was only established a few years ago. It was a new organization separated from the Imperial Hunters.
Unlike the Imperial Hunters who refused to participate in the war, the Royal Demon Hunter Army mainly carried out military missions and had an independent command system. The current commander of the Imperial Hunters, Jason, had no command over them.
The previous Chief Hunter, Keriber, had been the first commander of the royal Demon Hunters. He later resigned, and the captain of the royal guards, Irene, became the second commander of the royal Demon Hunters.
However, Irene only had a part-time job in name and rarely interfered in specific decisions. The rumors had long spread that the commander of the Royal Demon Hunter Army was actually Princess Shuni.
Ever since the Empire’s first defeat against the tribes a few years ago, King Becky pushed himself too hard. He was bedridden all year round and could not participate in the country’s decisions.
At this precarious juncture, the Princess Shuni appeared out of nowhere. With the support of her aunt, Irene, she made King Becky agree to let her participate in the Imperial Conference to discuss the country’s affairs as a mouthpiece.
Then, through Irene’s nepotism, Princess Shuni turned herself into a military staff officer and permanent secretary of the royal Demon Hunter Army. She planned a large number of operations and made the Royal Demon Hunter Army a sharp blade. She killed her way to her current reputation, causing the various tribes to be extremely afraid.
Now, Princess Shuni was already an important figure in the royal family of Tarn, holding great power. Although she was young, her status was quite stable with the support of the royal guardian, Irene.
At this moment, the leader of the men in black composed himself and stopped thinking about Bill’s inexplicable calmness.

“The Princess has ordered that our most important mission is to kill Bill! As long as we bring back your head, we can do it even without Roman!”
Bill’s tone was calm, “Sounds like it’s personal.”
“That I don’t care!”
The leader’s expression was fierce as he reached into his pocket, as if he wanted to take something.
However, at this moment, something unexpected happened.
The raging fire in the valley camp suddenly turned into fire snakes that soared into the sky and headed out of the valley, as if they had been sucked away.
This strange scene attracted the attention of everyone present. Everyone’s eyes followed the flames, and their movements subconsciously stopped.
In the next second, the flames suddenly returned and turned into large fireballs. Under everyone’s shocked gazes, they quickly shot towards the men in black from the entrance of the valley.
Rumble—
A series of explosions occurred on the battlefield, and flames splattered everywhere!
One by one, the black-clothed people were covered by the fireballs, and the entire place was filled with figures who had been blasted away.
Some were killed on the spot, torn apart, while others were set on fire. One by one, the burning men screamed as they ran around.
In an instant, 20 to 30 people in black were killed or injured on the spot. The losses were heavy!
“What’s going on?!”
The leader was horrified as he stared at the entrance of the valley.
A group of people slowly walked into the battlefield. The person in front was Roman, who had a cold expression. A large fireball was floating above his head.
The person who had left during the day had actually returned!
Roman looked at the shocked crowd and his tone was filled with anger as he spat,
“If I hadn’t realized that something was wrong halfway and rushed back in time, my territory would have been massacred by you… The royal family actually sent so many Mutant Blood Warriors to attack me. Looks like they’re determined to kill me. I want to see if the royal family will regret having buried all of you here.”
With that, he raised his hand and pointed. The fireball above his head shot out dense fire bullets towards the black-clothed men.
Many of the black-clothed people hurriedly dodged, but many of them reacted too slowly. When they were hit by the fireballs, they instantly burned and rolled on the ground, screaming.
Even the Mutant Blood Warriors could not withstand Roman’s flames.
“What ability is this? It’s too strong! Could it be the effect of the V3 Mutant Blood Potion? Or has Bill developed some new potion in the past few years?!”
The leader of the men in black broke out in cold sweat. He did not understand the existence of sorcery at all and pushed all the blame to Bill.
He originally thought that this operation was 90% certain of success, but he did not expect Roman to have such terrifying strength. The situation suddenly became extremely dangerous.
The leader gritted his teeth and shouted, “Everyone, kill Roman first, or we’ll all die!”
As soon as he finished speaking, all the black-clothed people ignored their opponents and rushed towards Roman.
An intense battle suddenly erupted!
Roman pushed his usage of Merging Thoughts up, continuously scattering thick orange-red flames, burning his enemies to death.
However, more than a hundred black-clothed people rushed forward one after another and quickly closed the distance. They quickly got entangled and fought with Roman’s guards. They ignored the fact that both sides were suffering heavy losses, and only wanted to break through the line of guards. The scene was quite bloody.
Even with Roman attacking from the side, the guards around him could not withstand the advantage of the black-clothed people’s numbers and were forced back.
When Bill saw the reinforcements, he also flew into the sky above Roman. From time to time, he would create a strong gale to stop the Demon Hunters. At this position, the Demon Hunters had no time nor effort to care about him.
