These True Demons were extremely intelligent. Numbering in the hundreds and thousands, they swarmed the teams attempting to advance, who were quickly defeated.
In just fifteen minutes, the teams that had been standing there were all but wiped out. The sickening stench of blood and viscera, mixed with the churned earth, filled the air and was utterly suffocating.
The True Demons weaved between the corpses, greedily feasting on their spoils. In mere moments, the bodies on the ground dissolved into wisps of black vapor as the demons fed.
Quite a few teams knew to work together. After expending considerable effort to disperse the leading demon and the True Demons behind it, they struck decisively, slaying over a dozen True Demons in one fell swoop.
A True Demon's wings tore apart, and its body crashed heavily to the ground, quickly turning to ash. Streaks of black vapor rapidly dispersed into the air, only to be absorbed by the other True Demons fighting nearby.
