Su Nan didn’t hesitate any longer. As planned, he prepared to hunt down a demon.

He wanted to attack the demon while it was dormant, but unfortunately, it was perched on top of the cell, out of his reach.

Coming before the metal cell door, he gathered all his strength and landed a harsh punch on it.

The boom echoed deafeningly within the cell. His punch carried the weight of a thousand catties(catty~=1.32 pounds), yet the metal cell door showed no sign of damage!

After the punch, Su Nan immediately heightened his senses towards the changes behind him, raised his fists and prepared to hit the cell again.

As he was about to strike the cell door once more, an intense burst of cold wind attacked him. Its speed was so swift that even someone as prepared as Su Nan barely reacted in time.

“Seeking death!”

He abruptly turned around and threw a punch without ever looking.

Thud! There was a muffled sound of flesh on impact, he felt as though he had hit a sandbag, and the huge force shook his arm with pain.

The shadow flew back. Su Nan clearly saw his fist land squarely on the head of the Bat Demon, stunning it instantly.

What followed was simple. While the Bat Demon was still stunned, Su Nan kept attacking it relentlessly, each punch severely hitting its head.

The Bat Demon struggled, but under Su Nan’s violent assault, it had no chance to fight back and was beaten to the brink of death within a few breaths.

By this time, Su Nan too felt the fatigue of his body. He was finding it hard to keep up with the high-intensity attack.

“It doesn’t die even after this, worthy of being a demon of a two-star task.”

Enduring his fatigue, he not only didn’t stop, but his attacks got even faster. He was adamant not to stop until the Bat Demon was killed.

He had already had a fall in his foreknowledge, letting the Bat Demon find an opportunity to counter-attack. He would not repeat his mistake this time.

At last, a minute later, the massive body of the Bat Demon came to a halt. Su Nan kept attacking until the task completion notice appeared, and only then did he stop.

By this point, the head of the Bat Demon was completely smashed.

It couldn’t understand till death, how a mortal warrior could not only survive its attack but also counter-kill it.

[Daily Task “Hunt and kill a Mortal-level demon” completed, 5 points of demonic power reward granted.]

[Current available demonic power: 5 points]

“Quit Game!”

As soon as he saw the game prompt, Su Nan didn’t think twice and decided to log out immediately.

[On completion of each daily task, one has the opportunity for unrestricted logout.]

[Current environment is dangerous. Unable to logout of game temporarily. You have one opportunity for unrestricted logout, would you like to use it now?]

“Logout!” He didn’t hesitate and immediately used his unrestricted logout opportunity.

Just as he logged out of the game, the corpse of the Bat Demon dried up at an incredible speed. The cell shook slightly, and a terrifying force arrived.

The change in the cell alarmed the guards, who rushed towards Cell No. 19.

…

“I’m dead tired!”

In his bedroom, Su Nan climbed out of the game capsule, gasping for breath.

The process of killing the Bat Demon may seem simple, but in reality, it was full of danger. A slight recklessness could have cost him his life.

But that wasn’t the main point. Su Nan discovered that, using up all his strength to kill the Bat Demon in the game, his body in reality was also severely drained.

It felt as if it was not the game character who had acted, but him.

“This game is definitely not simple!”

If you say that the sense of real death he felt yesterday could be explained by the game being too realistic…

Then his current exhausted state was clearly abnormal.

“Got 5 points of Demon Power, halfway off from awakening the bloodline combat technique.”

“Just need to complete the task of escaping from Cell No.19, then I’ll have enough demon power.”

Su Nan planned to accomplish the other task in one fell swoop.

If the task is left undone today, it will refresh tomorrow. Rather than wasting tomorrow’s task slot, it’s better to do it today.

Moreover, he hadn’t died today, even if something unexpected occurs in the task, he can resurrect a few hours later.

After resting for a full hour…

Su Nan logged in to the game again.

Surprisingly, there was not just him in the cell that should have been empty.

Not far from him, there was another tall man.

When the man saw Su Nan suddenly appearing, he was taken aback.

A player?

The two locked eyes, both recognised the identity of the other, showing surprise.

Su Nan was also surprised to find another player here.

But it was also normal. He had just entered this game yesterday. Excluding this login, he had only logged in twice, each time was not long. Even if there were other players here before, it was normal that he didn’t encounter them.

After the man recovered, his eyes lit up and immediately asked, “Brother, when were you brought here?”

“Brought in?” Su Nan was slightly moved in his heart, but his face remained calm, “I was caught just today. What about you?”

“You were also just brought in?” The man didn’t suspect anything, he just looked disappointed.

He thought he could get some information about this place from Su Nan, but it seems impossible now.

The man sighed, “I was brought here today too.”

As he spoke, he seemed to have thought of something and asked, “By the way, how did you get caught and not killed by that demon?”

Su Nan looked at the previous location of the Bat Demon’s body subconsciously, but the corpse of the Bat Demon had disappeared.

It seemed like something he didn’t know happened here after he logged out of the game.

Su Nan didn’t intend to tell him that the Bat Demon was killed by him, that would undoubtedly expose his strength. He didn’t want people to know about his perfection in Demon Sutra yet.

He feigned ignorance and asked in a puzzled manner, “Demon? What demon? I didn’t encounter any.”

“Didn’t encounter? It seems you’re lucky that the demon had disappeared when you were brought in.” The man didn’t think much about it.

He noticed that the Bat Demon was missing, but he didn’t know when it had disappeared, and he had no idea that the Bat Demon was already dead.

“It was a Bat Demon. Initially, there were two other players brought in with me. They were not lucky, they got killed by the demon, I survived just because I finished a daily task and had one chance for an unrestricted logout.”

“You completed a daily task?” Su Nan was surprised.

“Hehe, luckily I completed a two-star novice task.” The man laughed, a hint of pride in his eyes.

When he mentioned “two-star”, he emphasised it.

Su Nan saw the strange look in his eyes. He knew what the man was thinking and feigned astonishment,”two-star? How did you manage that?”

Seeing Su Nan’s shock, the man felt satisfied. He patted Su Nan’s shoulder and said, “Brother, don’t envy me. I only completed it with the help of others. I’ve only just made minor progress with The Demon Sutra.”

“Amazing! Amazing!” Su Nan exclaimed. This time, he was not entirely pretending.
