Chapter 495: Pursuit On November 14 of the Imperial Calendar, five days had passed since the Demon Raider branch had been slaughtered, and it had been two days since the Bright Star had arrived in this area.
In the past two days, the Star of Light first took the brave men to pay tribute to the slaughtered members of the Demon Seeker Army and the local victims, and then the Star of Light quickly visited several influential lords in the surrounding areas to seek support.
However, the lords who had been frightened by the Black Death Flame Thieves did not dare to lend their strength to the Star of Light, except for the convenience of the Star of Light in the local area and the support of materials, the lords were all powerless in terms of manpower.
Although this reply did not cause a rupture in the relationship between the lord and the star of light, it was enough for these young brave men who believed in justice to make them furious.
On the day they arrived, a large number of demon warriors from the surrounding area began to assemble towards the Star of Light by various means of transportation.
The appeal of the brave is extremely powerful, even if the demon army and the nobles are inextricably linked, but the main body of the demon army is still those hot-blooded young people who look forward to the brave individual.
Overnight, the Star of Light gathered nearly 30,000 members of the Demon Raider, and the Star of Light also leased hundreds of Sparrow-type airships through several large chambers of commerce with airship production technology.
Although the carrying capacity of the Sparrow-type airship was far from enough to carry 30,000 demon seekers in the sky to find traces of the Black Death Flame, the Star of Light and the other fifty brave men could use the Sparrow-type airship to quickly reach any place in the nearby area in the sky.
The fifty heroes are all extremely high-ranking powerhouses, and their combat experience is far from being comparable to ordinary people, even if it is thousands of thieves, fifty heroes are enough to kill them all, and this is why the Star of Light brought them here.
Starting early the next morning, a full 130 Sparrow-type airships, carrying the soldiers of the Demon Raiders, were distributed over the nearby territory.
They were like combs, combing through all the suspicious spots on the ground in one direction.
Every time a suspicious hideout is spotted that could be the Black Death Flame, the Demon Seekers traveling on the ground will immediately go to investigate.
In the course of the next day, the Demon Seekers with trucks completely cleaned the two territories, and although they did not find the lair of the Black Death Flame, the demon lair and other thieves in the two areas were swept away by the Demon Seeker.
After the Demon Seeking Army has set up sentry posts in the entry and exit passages of each territory, it is like the Black Death Flame will be discovered by the hidden adventurers if he wants to enter the territory to commit crimes, and at this rate, the Demon Seeking Army will soon only need to send a few thousand people to monitor various areas, and the Black Death Flame will be overwhelmed sooner or later.
Although the lords had confirmed the feasibility of such a plan as the Star of Light after only one day of waiting, and since the Star of Light had no intention of keeping it secret at all, the plan had spread in the surrounding territories almost instantly.
On the morning of the third day, the Bright Star once again cleared a noble territory in the direction of the Black Death Flame's evacuation, and just as he was about to continue his departure after the noon break, the airship that was the outpost suddenly sent back an urgent message.
A hundred kilometers away from where the Demon Warriors are now, a group of thieves suspected of being Black Death Flame had just attacked a village, but this time Black Death Flame did not cause mass killing, but left the village in a hurry after capturing the adult males in the village.
After receiving this news, the first reaction of the Bright Star was that Black Death Flame was preparing to escape, knowing that according to previous records, these inhumane villains would only go to nearby villages to capture ready-made laborers when they needed to carry supplies.
After sensing that Black Death Flame was about to flee, the Bright Star immediately planned to pursue him, but in this era when everyone has a truck, he must use other means to catch up with the other party.
As a result, a total of fifty-seven brave men and five hundred elite demon warriors boarded the Sparrow-type airship, and then a total of sixty airships carried these murderous warriors in a straight line in the direction where the Black Death Flame might exist.
When a black-robed man hiding in the shadows saw the Star of Light separated from the Demon Seeker, he knew that his plan had succeeded, and then, according to his instructions, the thieves of the Black Death Flame were spotted and caught up by the airship in the sky on the road without any disguise.
"It's these damn scoundrels!
Drop the heights, let's go kill them!
Knight Atri immediately clenched the hilt of his sword at his waist after spotting the fleeing Black Death Flame Thieves, and under his command, sixty airships in the sky began to accelerate past the Black Death Flame Thieves' convoy of trucks, and then gradually approached the ground.
When the airship in which the Bright Star was riding was at least a hundred meters above the ground, Atri flew towards the speeding truck, protected by the light spirit spell of his companion female mage Novia.
And the panicked thieves, when they saw someone flying down, immediately raised their rifles and began to shoot fiercely at Atri.
The bullets rained down on Atri like a hornet, but the young knight's armor was nearly invincible against rifle bullets.
The armor on Atri's body before the bullet even touched Atri's body was directly bounced away by a faint light mask, and Atri, who had fallen less than twenty meters away from the truck, jerked out the silver sword at his waist.
"Scum, stop trying to escape!"
With a roar of rage, Atri slashed his sword at the truck at the head of the convoy.
The long sword covered with silver fighting qi slashed through the metal on the roof of the car with a piercing sound, and the agitated fighting spirit completely destroyed the alchemy circuit in the truck in an instant after rushing into the truck, and the thief in charge of driving the truck also died tragically in the cab immediately.
"Ahh Yes!
"The truck lost control of its direction immediately after being vandalized, and the truck full of thieves struck a large tree after serpenting for some distance amid the screams of the thieves.
The smoking truck stopped in the middle of the road, completely blocking the not wide forest road, and when Atri began to slash the dizzy thieves who fell from the truck with his sword, the other brave men of the Demon Seeker Army had also completely blocked the back road of the Black Death Flame thieves.
"Kill these damn demon seekers!"
After a brief panic after being attacked, the thieves saw that the demon army surrounding them was only one-tenth the number of their own.
The Black Death Flame thieves immediately grew emboldened, and as they shouted and cursed, they were raised their weapons and began to take advantage of the height of the truck to fight back at the demon army.
"Don't save ammunition, you must wipe them all out here today!"
At this time, Atri stood at the front line of the battlefield and shouted at his men, and the soldiers of the Demon Crusade were inspired by the brave.
Immediately ripped the grenade from his waist and threw it at the Black Death Flame thugs.
In a series of rumbling explosions, many Black Death Flame thieves were forced to jump from their trucks and flee into the dense forest, and when a truck full of weapons and ammunition was detonated by the siege of the Demon Army, the Black Death Flame thieves had to speed up and flee towards the depths of this dense forest.
"Catch up!
Leave none behind!
Atri followed the thieves into the woods, and the soldiers of the Demon Raiders pursued them without hesitation.
In this way, the Black Death Flame fled desperately in front, and the Demon Seeking Army pursued equally desperately in the back, and the two sides chased and fled for an afternoon.

It's sunset.
As the sun set, a faint mist rose from the leafy forest, and Atri and his companions, who had been chasing the thieves of the Black Death Flame, had already distanced themselves from the other heroes and demon warriors.
If it weren't for the clues left by the Demon Army's running along the way, Atri would have wondered if he had lost it, and after killing a lone thief, he didn't see Black Death Flame for a full twenty minutes, so Atri had to stop to confirm the situation.
"Are we going in the wrong direction?"
After scanning the empty woods, Atri questioned the bard Neam.
"No way, their footprints have not been broken until before, you have to believe in my ability!"
Bard Neam protested loudly to his companion.
"I think it's better for us to go back a little bit and make sure."
Atri turned to walk back, but before he could take a step, the laughter of the Black Death Flame thieves rang out from the empty woods.
"Hahaha!
You damn brave men are going to die here today, and without you meddling guys, ours can get away with this world at will!
A thief with a beard and fierce eyes stepped out from behind a tree and said loudly.
"Scoundrel!
Suffer death!
When Atri saw the thief, he immediately drew his sword and rushed over.
With a bang, the ground where Atri passed suddenly exploded, and the knight was blown out and fell straight back to the same place.
"Fool brave, we have planted countless mines in this area, you and your foolish soldiers are waiting to be blown up alive by the mines!
Hahahaha......
"The smug thief turned to leave, but before he could take three steps, an arrow snapped into his back.
"Damn the brave, you won't end well, there are other good things waiting around here......"
The thief reluctantly turned to the fire-worshipping warrior who shot him with the arrow, and finally under a desperate gaze, the thief slowly fell to the ground without a sound.
