127. Chapter 127
In the eyes of the humans of the Olawen Continent, the Demon Realm is a terrifying dark world.
Only when you are in it, you find that the demon world is not as dark as the world thinks, it also has day and night, but the tone of the day in the demon world is obviously very bleak, which is probably related to the environment and climate of the demon world, there is no sunlight at all, and the whole world is gloomy and misty.
The climate of the Demon Realm is very harsh, and the environment of the Demon Realm is also very poor, although the Demon Realm is very large, there are too few places suitable for the survival of the Demon Race. The creatures of the demon world who have lived in this land for a long time have a stronger and stronger ** than humans, and the strong eat the strong here, so it also leads the demons to pay more attention to the bloodline than human society, and all the people of the demon world are divided into three, six, nine and so on, and they can never be surmounted.
Jian Lu has been locked up in this black room for three days, the room is very large, and the furniture should be complete, and even from the velvet quilt spread on the bed, the ornate and delicate curtains, you can see that the owner of this room is extraordinarily wealthy, and there are many human handicrafts. The doors and windows are locked, with untouchable forbidden spells on them, preventing any possibility of escape, and through the locked semi-circular carved window lattices, you can see the world outside the window.
The man who brought him back and locked him up seemed to have forgotten his save, and did not even bring any food or water. He guessed that if the other party didn't really forget him, he was deliberately hanging him, and even used starvation and confinement to control him.
This can be seen from the behavior of the demon clan who forcibly brought him to the demon realm in the first place, and he even took away the space equipment and other things on his body. Of course, that space ring was just a system lattice space that Jian Lu used to cover his body, and the important things were placed in it, so it didn't matter if he took it away.
He habitually stores food in the system space, and the lattice space in the system is integrated into his body, and no one can take it away, which is his biggest reliance at this stage, so even if there is no food, it really doesn't make much difference to him.
In the past three days, Jian Lu didn't do anything drastic, and didn't even try to escape, but stayed in this room quietly, thinking about the reason why the other party captured him from the Olawen Continent, whether it was deliberate, or if he just wanted to catch one at random at that time, and just caught him.
The reason why Jian Lu thought that this was the Demon Realm, except that when he was forcibly captured by that black mist, he was directly brought to the extreme south of the Olawen Continent, and came to this plane through the spatial passage of the two realms in the extreme south. Then, there is the harsh environment and climate of this world, when he looks out of the window more than once, he can see the sky in the distance and black clouds pressing down on the city, sometimes there are heavy rains or hurricanes, there is no grass around, the climate is so bad that it is difficult for people to come back if they go out.
From some descriptions of the Demon Realm, Jian Lu could guess that the climate and environment of the Demon Realm were very harsh, otherwise the Demon Race would not have been obsessed with the resource-rich continent of Olawen Continent, and had never stopped its aggressive ambitions.
As for the black mist that captured him, Jian Lu has also reacted now, it should be the Demon King's share. body, to points. He came to the human realm, so he didn't alarm those saint-level powerhouses on the Olawen Continent. However, even if it is the doppelganger of the Demon King, it is still difficult to match Jian Lu's current strength.
Just when Jian Lu was sitting at the window quietly as a wooden man as he had done for the past three days, the prohibition at the door suddenly loosened, and he looked up and saw a demon with black hair and red eyes striding in, followed by a demon dressed like a housekeeper.
"This is the elf that the king brought back from the Elven Forest?" The demon looked at Jian Lu with interest, and his eyes did not hide the bloodthirsty **, as well as the cold-blooded contempt for other creatures.
"Lord Ovovid, yes!" The butler replied, "But he's not an elf. ”
"Not an elf? And what did the king do when he brought him back? Ovoved asked strangely, his gaze was extremely aggressive, and he looked at the handsome man sitting at the window from head to toe, and couldn't help but show contempt again, because this human man was not only too weak, but even the strength of the third-rate clan demons was too weak.
Nothing but that face!
Such a human man is only worthy of being treated as a male pet plaything, and it is not a pity to throw it away when he is crippled.
"That's what the lord commanded." The butler replied vaguely.
It seems that the adult is a taboo that cannot be said, Ovolid's face changed after hearing this, he glanced at the human man sitting quietly and indifferently in front of the window, pressed the thoughts in his heart, showed a cold look at him, and turned to leave.
Finally sent the people away, and the housekeeper of the Demon Palace also breathed a sigh of relief. Lord Ovovede's Paltrow family is one of the thirteen great families of the demon race, strong, and loyal supporters of the demon king, the right hand of the demon king, and the power under him is given by the demon king. If he handpicked this human being, when the Demon King was not in the Demon Palace, the housekeeper really couldn't stop him, and when the Demon King came back, he wouldn't know how to explain.
The butler glanced at the human magician who had maintained the same posture since they came in, and naturally knew that he had been very well-behaved and peaceful these days, and did not try to escape, as if he had accepted his fate. This kind of resignation made the demon people look down on him a little, but it also confirmed that he was not lethal, so naturally he would not pay too much attention.
After thinking about it, the butler ordered one of his attendants to bring the food, and went out without a word of superfluity.
After the door closed, Jian Lu stood up, soothed his body, and didn't look at the food, but paced around the room, thinking slowly.
From their brief conversation just now, Jian Lu deduced a piece of information, obviously this time the Demon King got him to the Demon Realm for a purpose, if he guessed correctly, this should be what Avela meant.
Thinking back to what happened in the Elven Forest that night, it is not difficult to guess that Evera should be cooperating with the Demon Realm, and the collaborator is the Demon King. As for what deal they have, they can put it aside for now, and don't talk about the meaning of Evela's move, it is certain that they should have no intention of hanging him here, the reason is that the Demon King is not in the Demon Palace at this time, which also makes the people in the Demon Palace have no time to pay attention to him.
So, why isn't the Demon King here?
Jian Lu paused, couldn't help but look at the sky of the Demon Realm outside the window, and already had an answer in his heart.
With Hines's character, after discovering that he is missing, he will definitely be irritable, and even do something terrible, and there will be no number of unlucky people at that time. I'm afraid that now Evira and the Demon King can't return to the Demon Palace, just to deal with his anger.
This is an opportunity!
Jian Lu let his mood settle down and began to think about his next plan.
The opportunity soon came.
Ten days later, there was a sudden violent explosion in the Demon Palace, half of the buildings of the Demon Palace were blown up, and the humans who were locked up in the Demon Palace were nowhere to be found.
This incident also made the entire Demon World a sensation, after all, this was the first time that someone had done anything in the Demon Palace, and even blew up half of the Demon Palace, and sternly provoked the majesty of the Demon King.
A month later, the newly rebuilt Demon Palace welcomed a distinguished guest.
said that he was noble because he was welcomed into the Demon Palace by the Demon King with the highest VIP standard, and no one could beat him. This distinguished guest was a human warrior, he had brilliant golden hair, handsome facial features, long and straight height, wearing a white and gold knight's uniform, like the most upright and loyal paladin in the Temple of Light, incompatible with the environment of this demon world, but no one dared to show a strange look.
This is the first human being to be welcomed into the Demon Palace by the Demon King himself in thousands of years.
Ovovid Paltrow led a group of demons in the Demon King's City to wait for the return of the Demon King, and at the same time saw this human fighting warrior, when he approached, where he passed, this group of usually bloodthirsty and arrogant demons bowed their noble heads deeply, no one dared to look at him, and even was so oppressed by that terrible threat that they almost fell to their knees.
The aura on this human man is even more terrifying than that of the Demon King.
The strong are respected, this word is more respected in the demon world than in other places, and it is more incisive than the Olawen Continent, as long as you have the strength to crush a qiē, you can also make a group of arrogant demons lower their noble heads, like ants to be driven.
"What about people?" The blonde human's voice is gentle with a bit of elegant lowness, a nice baritone, but for some reason, it makes people feel a terrible coldness that penetrates into the bones.
The handsome demon king glanced at him with those cold scarlet eyes, and secretly pressed one hand to the heart of his chest, where there was a terrible brand, and he also saw the horror of this man, and he had to compromise.
The Demon King's gaze looked at the guardian of the Demon Palace, Ovavid Paltrow, and asked coldly, "What about the human?" ”
With an irrepressible look of anger on his face, Oveverid said, "He blew up the Demon Palace and fled." ”
Demon King: "......"
This unexpected answer, not only the demon king was stunned, but even the blonde man was stunned, and then he couldn't help but laugh lowly, and then the more he laughed, the more arrogant he became, and the laughter made the faces of the demons turn blue.
The Demon King closed his eyes, pressed the irritable anger that had been provoked and fooled, and after asking about what had happened in the Demon Palace in the past month, he turned his head to look at the blonde man and said, "Your Excellency, I'm sorry that the person you want is gone, but I can let the entire Demon Realm go looking for him and bring him back unharmed." ”
The blonde man glanced at him coldly, a faint smile on the corner of his lips, but this smile did not reach the bottom of his eyes, and he said, "It's better to be like this, otherwise the Demon King should be someone else." ”
The Demon King's eyes also instantly turned cold, and he held back the anger in his heart and asked people to arrange this.
****
After leaving the Demon Palace, Jian Lu realized for the first time how harsh and terrifying the climate of the Demon Realm was, even a hundred times more terrifying than the environment of the Lost Land. At least the landform of the Lost Lands is still single, deserts, magic forests, barren mountains, except for demon insects, there is no threat. In the Demon Realm, the threat of various magical creatures is still light, but the threat from nature is terrifying.
The climate of the Demon Realm is already harsh, coupled with the diversity of the landforms, the dangers brought are countless, among which the Demon Storm and the Magic Magnetic Rain are the most dangerous.
Wearing a black magic cloak, Jian Lu fled thousands of miles away from the Demon Palace at an extremely fast speed before lurking.
After hiding himself, he began to disguise himself.
First of all, he dyed his hair black with dye, and the hair of the demons is mostly black. He hunted a few horned monsters, took their horns to make them look like ordinary demon horns, fixed them on his head with magic, and then changed his facial features with a transformation potion. On the whole, his facial features are very similar to his appearance in his previous life, but there is a kind of profundity unique to Western men, which makes his soft facial features, which originally belonged to Eastern men, instantly become extremely attractive.
After successfully disguising himself, Jian Lu went to the town where ordinary demons lived, and none of the demon army hairs chasing him could be found.
When it comes to concealment methods, Jian Lu is actually not bad.
During this time, Jian Lu also found that the ordinary demons of the demon race are actually similar to the ordinary people of the human race, except for the different races, in fact, the way of life is the same, and they also exchange their own labor for food and the chance to survive, but the environment of the demon world is too bad, and the things encountered by ordinary demons are more dangerous in order to survive.
After Jian Lu hid for a month, he happened to feel the opportunity to advance, so he had to find a secret place, and it took half a month to break through to become a magician, and then after consolidating his strength, he returned to the town of the demon clan and mixed in as an ordinary demon.
He lived as an ordinary demon for several months, and when he found out that the demon was searching for his army, he decisively forged his identity and ran away with a demon caravan.
This demon caravan has to escort a batch of valuable goods to another city called Niga City, which needs to pass through several dangerous areas, so it hires a lot of powerful demon powerhouses halfway, and because of this, there is no need for strict identification of the hired object, and it is easy for people to get by.
Jian Lu was one of the humans who had infiltrated the caravan.
At this time, the caravan had just departed, and Jian Lu was chatting with a demon warrior he knew in the town, but the other party was talking, and he listened silently. This demon warrior named Shaq is a typical chatter, and can talk alone for a day, as long as someone listens, so they hit it off and become good friends.
"I heard that there is a nobleman who asked the caravan to send this batch of goods to Nica City, during which it has to pass through the Land of Thorn Forest, the Burial Stone Forest, and the Scorched Land, these three regions are very terrible, and I don't know what kind of goods this batch is, it needs to be transported from here to Nica City, it can't be ......" Shaq lowered his voice, "Those nobles are preparing for an attack on the human realm again?" ”
Jian Lu: "......"
Shaq said very hi alone, and after he was done, he started talking nonsense again, and soon he was crooked, and he talked about the bombing of the Demon Palace a few months ago, "I heard that it was a human magician who did it!" I have to say, this human magician is so cool, he even dared to blow up the Demon Palace, and he blew up half of it, this is something that no one can do, I don't know what the reaction of the Demon King and the noble lords of Ovovedid was at that time......"
Obviously, as an ordinary demon warrior, he was not very loyal to the demon king, but instead used this matter as a talking point - this was also the reason why Jian Lu had plans to become friends with him, which was extremely beneficial for hiding his identity.
"Lord Oweverid must be very angry, otherwise he would not have wanted that human mage from the entire Demon Realm, and even repeatedly increased the bounty to find him, according to the usual practice, as long as he is found, Lord Owovid will definitely tear him apart as soon as possible, chew and swallow him bite by bite. I heard that human flesh and blood are very good, especially when eaten raw, it is even more delicious, and Ovoved likes to eat human blood raw...... Oh, by the way, the Demon Palace's wanted bonus for that human magician has changed from 5,000 magic crystals to 50 million, and many more people have been sent to look for him before, if only I could find that human magician, so that I don't have to worry about food and clothing for the rest of my life, and I can go to the city to settle down......"
Jian Lu: "......"
Jian Lu decided, for the time being, let's continue to hide, we must not reveal our identity, lest we be torn apart by that group of angry demons, it is best to quickly find the space passage back to the Olawen Continent, the longer you stay here, the more dangerous it will be.
With Shaq's chatter, the road wasn't boring until they passed through the Thorn Forest.
In the land of the Thorn Forest grew a large black demon plant like steel, called Iron Thorn. They are vine creatures with no leaves, large and small branches, with sharp thorns that coil together, giving the vision a sense of shock and looking very scary.
They want to pass through this iron thorn, the first thing to guard against is not these terrible iron thorns, but a kind of monster with very strong teeth that feeds on thorns, they look a bit like moles, but they are much more agile and fast than moles, they can flexibly shuttle through the thorns, fast as the wind, as long as they are not careful, they will be caught by it and eat a piece of flesh until they bleed to death.
"Be careful, Grafad." Shaq said to his buddy friend, "You're so weak, don't let them catch you." "In the eyes of the strong demon people, Jian Lu is like a malnourished weak demon clan, which makes people wonder how he grew so big.
"Thanks for the reminder."
Jian Lu didn't pay attention to it, the speed of the mole is very fast, but his speed is not too much, with his current strength as a magician, he can quickly cast silent and uncursed magic, and he can hide from other people's eyes.
When they finally managed to make their way through the Iron Thorn Forest, the team lost nearly ten men and thirty were wounded.
The captain of the caravan, Salon, had to order the people to rest for two days, so that those who were wounded could recover from their injuries before setting out, so as not to encounter any accidents when they set off with their injuries and drag down the whole caravan. The climate of the Demon Realm is capricious and dangerous, so whenever you are in the wild, you must be 100% vigilant and ensure that you are in the best condition.
Because in the wild, there is naturally no entertainment, and these demons like to get together to chat, fart, and drink a little wine when they don't have to patrol and be vigilant, just like those ordinary men in humans. Whenever this happened, Jian Lu would sit silently and listen in order to learn more about the Demon Realm.
Today, this group of demons talked about the Olawen Continent.
"I heard that it is a beautiful continent full of food, there is no magic storm, no magic magnetic rain, no terrible bad climate, there is plenty of food, abundant resources, and warm sunshine, even those nobles yearn for it." One demon said that he had described the beauty of the Olawen continent in exaggerated language at great lengths - of course, he had heard others say it.
It may be that this person's description is too beautiful, and the other auditors and demons can't help but show a yearning look.
"If only I could take a look." A demon sighed.
"yes, it's not in vain."
"It's easy to go if you want to, as long as you can find a spatial passage to the human world, you can go."
Jian Lu's eyes flashed slightly, and he couldn't help but look at the demon who was speaking, and found that this was a young demon boy who would show a vampire-like fangs when he laughed.
"How can it be that simple? Of those spatial passages leading to the human realm, one of them is known to be controlled by the nobles, and the other two are located in the territory of the Abyss Demon, and with our strength, we will not be able to reach it in a lifetime. The demon boy pouted and said, very disappreciative of that group of demon nobles.
The group of people continued to talk lively, and when Shaq finally stopped to drink saliva to quench his thirst, he asked, "Shaq, who is that person?" ”
Shaq looked in the direction he was pointing, with a clear expression, "You mean Keener, this kid?" He was the illegitimate son of a nobleman, but unfortunately, his aristocratic mother thought him a disgrace and did not want to recognize him, so he and his cowardly and incompetent commoner father drove him away, so Kina was very unfriendly to the nobles. ”
Jian Lu suddenly wondered, no wonder this demon boy named Kena gave him a different feeling from other ordinary demons, not only his facial features were more handsome, but also his natural strength was higher than the people around him.
The demon clan is inherited by blood, and the demon clan with noble blood is stronger in talent and strength, which makes the hierarchy of nobles and commoners more stringent, and no nobleman will be willing to have children in peace, nobles can play with civilians wantonly, and have many civilian lovers, but they will definitely not consider it as the object of giving birth to offspring, Keener's birth should be an accident.
After learning about Keina's background, Jian Lu looked at him thoughtfully.
