It was not easy to kill an abyss demon that was about to be a high-level demon, and even when Ainsley restrained the movement of that demon with the remaining power of bloodline suppression, that demon was still dangerous.
This demon was not under Ainsley's absolute control anymore.
The counterattack did almost cut down the bloodline thread, and Ainsley had already fixed it, but even so, the damage had been done, and aside from restraining the demon's movement from time to time, there was nothing Ainsley could do.
The 50 special vanguards used almost all their energy just to deal with that one quasi-high-level abyss demon.
The assault lasted for a full ten minutes when usually, the whole vanguard team could kill one mid-level demon together within several minutes or several seconds.
For them to kill that demon in ten minutes, even after joining hands with the rest of the people in the vanguard team, means that the strength of that demon was already ten times the strength of a mid-level demon.
If the demon could successfully advance, even Ainsley herself didn't know whether she could survive or not.
Asmodeus mode was only available for a few hours, and after that, the baby had to gather a lot of energy once more.
Ainsley could not be sure that she would be safe and sound in a few hours once that demon advanced to a high-level demon.
The big threat hung above everyone's head, like a guillotine knife ready to chop off their heads.
During those ten minutes, the people around the vanguards held their breath, praying sincerely so that the demon could be killed.
Finally, after exhausting the energy of 50 special vanguards, that demon died cleanly, leaving only its 'gem' and other solid body parts.
Ainsley immediately asked someone who had related abilities to take away those items from afar so that no demons would accidentally eat the demon 'gem' and gain strange power.
The demon gem should be the demon core, and as time passed by, the miasma inside the core would disappear, turning the core into a valuable treasure for many beings in this world.
To be honest, the abyss demons were really terrifying, but they were also like a mountain of treasure.
Many people back then gathered the body parts of these abyss demons for a living, and these so-called abyss scavengers could even build a long-lasting, powerful family based on the treasures from the abyss demons.
Someone even said that the inheritance stone in legends might e from abyss demons who were about to be high-level demons but failed to advance, and their demon cores were mixed with various special substances in the environment.
That's how Pandora Island could 'produce' inheritance stones.
If this guess was true, then imagine how many quasi-high-level abyss demons who died on that island?
The war back then must have been truly difficult, so much so that the generations nowadays could mine the inheritance stones that might be the core of quasi-high-level abyss demons.
Regardless of whether the inheritance stone was actually a demon core or not, in the end, Ainsley still kept the core of that quasi-high-level demon with everyone's permission, and soon, the group once again plunged into the endless battle.
They had been fighting for several hours already, and now, it was seven o'clock.
Some survivors had already rested inside the castle, eating dinner hastily and then continued to clean up demons.
The students were all exhausted, and they all rested for half an hour before they had to go back to their posts.
The whole castle was lit with some modern lighting tools and traditional ones such as torches. 𝑵𝓞𝒱𝞮𝑙𝑈𝔰𝐛.𝓒𝒐𝓜
Still, those hustle and bustle didn't look warm and beautiful at all.
On the contrary, it looked like the last sliver of hope remaining in the hearts of these survivors, so bleak and pitiful.
The castle was the only one with the light source, and the dark night didn't even have the moon as a natural light source.
The battlefield outside of the castle was so dark that the dark abyss demons could not be seen properly, increasing the danger on the battlefield several times.
The area protected by the barriers still had some scattered light sources, but outside, the whole world seemed to be eaten by the darkness, and those terrifying demons were all hiding in the dark, ready to attack.
Only their blood-coloured eyes would sometimes shine in the dark, sending a chill down everyone's spines.
There was still no news about when the fairy of space would e, but considering that the fairy had to accumulate power to teleport so many demons at once, even if she had been collecting energy since two days ago, she might still need a little more time.
Everyone here had basically tacitly agreed that the fairy probably would not e to their island until tomorrow.
But dawn was still ten or eleven hours from this moment, and the survivors didn't think they could survive for such a long time.
The number of casualties alone had hit fifty whole people, and most of them were contestants who had great strength yet sacrificed in order to protect the vulnerable students.
Those students who were arrogant before had all been beaten by reality and admitted that they were actually just a burden to these contestants.
Maybe, without them, the contestants would be able to live longer.
The mental state of many students worsened, and many even attempted to mit suicide after transferring their abilities to the inheritance stones.
The contestants were also in a bad state, and after some calculation, their rations, medicine and other supplies would only last exactly until dawn tomorrow.
They're running out of time.
