There was a hum, like a subtle buzzing sound wave that vibrated through the magic forest.

This sound is like ringing in the ears, it is a special alchemy product sent out the communication sound, it is extremely difficult to capture, only people with specific instruments can catch it, and it is also a kind of communication sound wave specially researched by the alchemists of the Lost Lands according to the characteristics of the demon insects, which is suitable for use in the magic forest and desert, so as to avoid the tracking of those demon insects.

Hawthorne, who was on his way, suddenly stopped and waved his hand at the man behind him.

"What's wrong?" Agnes leaned in to him and asked in a whisper.

Hawthorn led them to lurk, and after carefully sprinkling the confusion potion around them, he said, "News has come from the main city. With that, he took out the teleportation scroll.

Although the teleportation scroll can be used as a tool for delivering messages, it has limitations, and if it is too far away, or if it is not in the same continental plane, the teleportation scroll will be of no use at all.

After opening the teleportation scroll, Hawthorn found that there were several messages on it, thinking that they had been in the depths of the Demon Forest before, and they were too far away to receive them, and they did not receive them until they were now some distance away from the depths of the Demon Forest.

It's just that when he saw the news from the main city on the teleportation scroll, Hawthorn's face was a little strange.

"What's wrong?" Buck and the others asked while drinking potions to replenish their energy, thinking that the information on it must not be simple to make Hawthorn, a smiling tiger, show such a look.

It's not easy, Hawthorn almost smiled bitterly, looked at Agnes and Buck and the others with some sympathy, and told them the news on the teleportation scroll: "There's news from the main city, let's go pick up the three of them." ”

"Who?"

"Could it be that the main city has sent other people into the Demon Forest?"

"That's right, it's been more than four months, and I don't know what else is going on outside the Demon Forest, so I'm in a hurry for them."

"Is there any other news from the main city?"

More than a dozen people were babbling, if it was normal times, they would definitely not speculate so wildly, it was purely the life in the Demon Forest in the past few months that scared them. With their strength, they can be regarded as the best in the Lost Lands, but of the more than 200 people who have entered the Demon Forest, there are only about a dozen left, how can such a loss rate not make them feel cold? Everyone wants to live, but in the Demon Forest, they are like ants, and they can only keep escaping to save these dozen people.

At this time, everyone's clothes were damaged and stained in different ways, and they were extremely exhausted, and if it weren't for Hawthorn's decision to retreat from the forest, they would have almost broken down mentally. After entering the Demon Forest, they realized how dangerous this place was.

"Hawthorn, tell me, who will the main city let us pick up?" Buck asked.

Hawthorn didn't hide it, and said directly: "Grafad, Alger, and Quintina, and they have issued a first-level secret order to escort them out of the Demon Forest, and they are only allowed to succeed and not fail." ”

As soon as these words came out, the scene fell silent.

Everyone looked at each other, and they were a little stuck for a while.

In their opinion, these three people were already condemned to death, but at this moment, the main city issued a first-level secret order for them to meet these three people and escort them out of the demon forest safely. Once the first-level secret decree has been issued, no one can disobey it, and the result of violating it will be to become a sinner for the entire human race in the Lost Lands.

The environment of the Lost Land is too harsh, the reproduction ability and strength of the demon insects are very strong, human beings are really inferior in this regard, human beings want to survive, they must form a group to deal with the demon insects, and strive for more living space, and because of this, it will cause many unreasonable rules and orders in the Lost Land, but no one questions it.

Agnes and Buck's expressions became very gloomy, and they looked at each other and then at Hawthorn.

Hawthorn put away the teleportation scroll, stood up, and said to the crowd: "Okay, everyone work hard again, we will go back to the depths of the Demon Forest to meet them now." ”

No one spoke, although everyone was extremely reluctant to return, but once the first-level secret order was issued, it could not be disobeyed.

Hawthorn led this group of less than twenty people to return to the depths of the Demon Forest again, fortunately, during this time, they had explored in the Demon Forest for a long time, and they also knew where there were no large demon insect groups, or strong king insects, but they also walked safely for a few days.

A few days later, they heard the sound of the battle, and the effect of the sound was so great that Hawthorn and the others looked at each other and hurried over.

When they arrived at the scene, they saw a scene that they would never forget.

A metal golem that couldn't tell what the prototype was, jumped high and pounced on a huge king worm at a speed that was impossible to catch with the naked eye, and with a wave of its claws, the king worm was cut in two. And the metal puppet shuttled quickly through the magic forest, its movements were dexterous and light, and even the most agile demon worms were slightly defeated, and those king insects that attacked it became dead things under its claws.

After watching a one-sided battle to slaughter the king insects, Hawthorn and the others were a little wooden, until the metal puppet finished killing the king insects on the scene, and then moved their eyes to them.

Obviously it was just a lifeless metal puppet, but when the pair of gem eyes that were eyes looked at it, it still made them feel a kind of strong shock, and they felt cold all over their bodies.

Fortunately, just as the metal golem pounced on them and was about to kill them like those king worms, it suddenly stopped a hundred meters ago, then turned around and jumped a few steps in mid-air, stopping in front of a giant tree.

Everyone's eyes also looked over, and when they saw the three people jumping from the canopy, the expressions of Hawthorn and the others could no longer be described in words.

Seeing these three people, they finally confirmed that these three people were alive and well, and they didn't know what the reason was, but they could also make the central main city pay very attention to them, not only sent the next level of secret orders for them to come over to respond, but also seemed to send troops into the demon forest to respond.

"Why are you here?" Alger's face was full of gloom, especially when he looked at Agnes and Buck, as if he was going to eat them, and he didn't hide the murderous intent in his heart.

Agnes and Buck smiled bitterly in their hearts, knowing that they had been planted this time, and even if Alger didn't break it next, the fate that awaited them after leaving the magic forest was unknown. It's obviously calculated well, but I don't know why it ended up in a passive situation.

Hawthorn suppressed the shock on his face, recounted the teleportation scroll of the main city, and looked at the three of them without blinking, and found that Alger and Quintina's eyes were both looking at the silver-haired young man, and he also had some guesses in his heart. Just seeing that terrible metal puppet obediently squatting beside him, it made people dare not think about anything.

What is certain is that in fact, the only person the main city asked them to pick up this time was this young man named Grafad, and Alger and Quintina were incidental.

When Jian Lu heard Hawthorn's words, he already knew in his heart that this should be Hines's doing, and he was also relieved to learn that he had left the Demon Forest safely. As for why Hines was able to let the central main city issue such an order, he didn't have to guess to know the process, but he knew it, but Jian Lu didn't want to pay attention to it.

Anyway, Hines's three views have now been crooked to the edge of the sky, and it is useless to think about it.

After the two parties responded, Jian Lu put the Golden Source Beast puppet into the lattice space and continued to hurry.

Although there are more Ho Thorn and others, it does not have much effect on Jian Lu, when encountering some king insects on the road, if it is not powerful, it will be solved directly by the worm shell scroll, and if it can't be solved, the Jinyuan beast puppet will be released, and there will be no setbacks, it can be said that it has been smooth sailing along the way.

To drive the Golden Source Beast Golem, you must have a Puppet Heart, but the Puppet Heart is not eternal, it is an energy consumable, and it is gone when it is consumed. Fortunately, he got a lot of puppet hearts in the Beast God Temple this time, and he could use them a few more times, so Jian Lu didn't skimp on using the Golden Source Beast Puppet.

Of course, Jian Lulu's hand, whether it was the powerful Worm Shell Scroll or the Golden Source Beast Puppet, all shocked Hawthorn and his party. The strong will always be awe-inspiring and respectful, even if they found that Jian Lu's strength relied on auxiliary tools, but it also made them dare not have the slightest dissent.

The insect shell scroll that they had never seen before, as well as the puppet beast made of unknown materials, all made Hawthorn and the others full of doubts about Jian Lu's origin, just because Jian Lu never spoke, everyone could only secretly guess in their hearts and did not dare to ask more.

Compared to the time it took, they had the powerful combat power of the Golden Source Beast on the way back, and it only took more than a month to reach the periphery of the Demon Forest.

On the way, they encountered an army from the central main city that had come to meet them.

The leader of the team was a silver fighting warrior, and when he saw Jian Lu, he saluted respectfully and said, "We are waiting for the order of the city lord to welcome Mr. Grafard back to the city." ”

In order to save trouble, Jian Lu's face regained his previous disguise at this time, looking like a first-class person in the Lost Land. Although he didn't know what Hines did after leaving the Demon Forest, he was used to planning ahead, so he naturally wouldn't fall into disguise. And Alger had seen the cruelty of this man, and he would not say much that he wanted to see Agnes's group unlucky.

Compared to the forces behind Agnes, Alger felt that it was more advantageous to cooperate with Jian Lu and Hines, two people from the Legendary Continent, so he was very cooperative now.

Seeing the attitude of the army in the main city, Hawthorn and the others looked at Jian Lu more cautiously.

The next road, escorted by the army, can be said to be as simple as walking in your own back garden

Until they left the Demon Forest safely, Alger and the others felt the unique wind and sand atmosphere of the desert, and they felt like they were separated from the world, but they didn't expect that they would be able to come out of the Demon Forest safely.

Outside the Demon Forest, there are still troops stationed mainly in the central main city, and Hawthorn and the others are sensitive to find that the area of the camp is also wider than before, and there is even a very luxurious house not far away, and the appearance of that kind of building is simply something that should not appear outside the Demon Forest.

They've only been away for a few months, so why do they feel like the world has changed?

While these people were struggling, the city lord Walton came over, and he came with a blonde youth.

Seeing this scene, everyone's eyes were a little frightened.

At this time, their city lord was like an entourage, following the young blonde man, following in unison. This scene was simply a demonic scene for Hawthorn and the others, how could the city lord who had always been high above be left behind? And still a pair of followers who surrender to follow?

People like Hawthorn, who have a keen mind, have noticed the appearance of the people who came, and they are not people from the Lost Land at all, but some of them are like the legendary continent, and they are stunned.

Alger's gaze was also a little surprised, he had guessed that this man was very strong before, but he didn't expect that even the city lord whose strength had reached the quasi-saint level would put on such a respectful posture, how strong was this person?

"Jane!"

Jian Lu stood there, his expression was light, and the color of his pupils was also very light, people who were not familiar with him thought that he was a cold-hearted person, especially at this time, compared to the excitement and joy of the handsome young man with blonde hair, his reaction was really cold, cold as frost.

The eyes of those who had seen Hines's strength and regarded him as an idol's lost land wandered before the two, and they felt a little uncomfortable when they noticed the huge contrast between the two.

No matter what others thought, Hines had already come to Jian Lu for the first time, didn't care about his coldness, hugged him tightly, hugged him tightly, put his face against the other party's neck, took a deep breath of his body, and his heart that had been hanging for two months settled down.

Even if he knew that there was a Golden Source Beast puppet and Jian Lu could leave the Demon Forest safely, he would always worry that something would happen that would make him restless, no matter what he did, he would have this person in his head, as if it had taken root in his flesh and marrow, and he would not be able to remove the traces of this person by stripping off his flesh and blood.

He is his weakness.

But this weakness, not only did he not think about getting rid of it, but he even couldn't wait for him to take root in his heart, humbly longing for him.

Jian Lumu was silent for a while, then reached out and patted him on the back, without saying anything.

In fact, he didn't know what to say.

Until he found out that this person hugged him and didn't let go, in this public, he also hugged him for too long, and finally blackened his face and slapped him away.

When Walton saw this scene, there was a little more indescribable strangeness in his cold and hard expression, and it was a little complicated. Who would have thought that a few months ago, Jian Lu was still a desert hunter disguised as the Lost Continent, standing in the crowd and listening to him, but now he has turned into a figure that even he can't afford to offend, and he must be carefully offered, lest that terrible blonde youth go crazy and destroy the main city.

Glancing at the blonde young man with a sunny and upright smile, Walton's feeling in his heart was really indescribable.

can describe his mood at the moment in one sentence: It's really the entire demon insect race.

No one has a more direct impression of Hines than the Walton City Lord, after all, as the strongest person in the human race, he was the first to be provoked by Hines, and beat him firmly, and used his strength to tell the world, who dares to disobey, fist waiting. Since even the strongest man in the human race has been beaten, then the next thing will be a matter of course.

And before just now, the overall impression of this man was that he was strong, vicious, gloomy, and difficult...... All kinds of negative impressions make people have to act cautiously in front of him, but there is absolutely no such sunny and upright appearance like a knight.

It's a dog.

Hines ignored the mood of the others, he took Jian Lu's hand and said directly: "You're tired these days, go and rest first, and when you're rested, we'll leave." ”

Jian Lu heard the meaning of his words, and his expression moved slightly.

Hines gave him a sunny smile back.

Jian Lu: "......"

Jian Lu was pulled away by him, and the people around him stood there quietly, and no one dared to give a salute, or say anything—except for Huo Thorn and his party, who had just come out of the Demon Forest, and when they found out the strange expressions of everyone, including the city lord, they didn't dare to look at it more.

So Jian Lu was held by a man, walked through the crowd in the camp, and entered the extra luxurious house.

When Jian Lu found out about this matter later, he subconsciously glanced around, and after finding that no one was paying attention to them at all, he finally breathed a sigh of relief, and then withdrew his hand.

Hines looked at him with a smile and didn't bother with him here.

But when he entered the luxurious house, as soon as the door closed, he was wound up like a snake again.

Jian Lu: "...... Let go! ”

"Don't let go! I've been worried about you for two months now! He said sullenly, his voice tinging with a pitiful smack.

Jian Lu stood there straight, letting the man holding him rest his head on his shoulder like a large dog, his golden head rubbing back and forth, and for a while he reacted to Mu Mu.

In other words, in fact, he doesn't know how to react, what to do with this person.

Hines has always been well versed in the principle of inching in and climbing along the pole, as long as he finds that he is a little soft, he will immediately build momentum for himself, mix pitiful, pretend to be innocent, etc., as long as he can get this person, no matter what means, he will not be stingy.

However, he also knew how to stop in moderation, and finally let him go before Jian Lu's endurance reached its peak.

"Jane, you go take a shower first, I'll make you some food, and you can rest well after eating." Hines said mildly, a pair of azure eyes brighter than a clear sky.

Jian Lu glanced at him, then turned around and went into the bathroom.

Seeing this house made Jian Lu feel that he was still in the Olawen Continent, especially the equipment in the bathroom, that feeling was even stronger, and he had to wonder how Hines had squeezed the people of the Central Main City to build this mansion after he left the Demon Forest. However, as a beneficiary, although his feelings are a little complicated, he will not refuse pretentiously.

When you come out of the shower, you can smell the aroma of food in the air, including seafood porridge, toast and roasted monster meat, which are Hines's specialties and are very authentic.

Sure enough, when I came to the long table, I saw the toasted bread placed in the delicately woven basket on the table, the golden roasted and oily monster meat on the round plate, and a pot of delicious seafood porridge.

Hines took out the washed utensils from the kitchen, pulled him into a seat with a smile, and filled him with porridge, while saying: "You said that porridge is a stomach-nourishing thing, so these days I estimate the time you will come out, and boil a pot every day, just waiting for you to eat fresh food when you come out." You are not in good health now, and you often vomit blood, although there are blood tonics, but the damage to your body is still ......"

Jian Lu took the bowl and drank porridge, listened to his nagging in silence, and found that he had a tendency to chatter, and finally couldn't help but say, "Okay, I know, you can eat it too." ”

Hines laughed, this time very softly.

Jian Lu opened his eyes a little wolfly, not daring to look at his face.

Until the rest of the night, Jian Lu wanted to lock the door, but he didn't want Hines to hold on to the door quickly, and then squeezed in.

"There is only one room, and we sleep together." Hines said pleasantly.

Jian Lu took a deep breath, didn't know what to say, turned around and went into the bathroom.

It wasn't until the door was closed that the smile on Hines's face disappeared, his eyebrows were a little more gloomy, and he stared at the bathroom door without blinking, thinking about whether to directly dismantle the door violently, but after such a demolition, would Jian Lu be angry and sweep him out of the house?

Until the bathroom door opened, the look on his face immediately changed to mild with a little sunshine, making people look like a good person, only the color in his eyes still remained, and it did not disappear.

Jian Lu glanced at him, and said in his heart that he had seen through the essence of this bear child, and now it was useless to pretend to be honest and sunny in front of him? Does it make sense to pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger like this?

Until the two of them lay side by side on the bed, Hines's heart went up and down, both happy that he didn't sweep himself out of the house, and worried that he didn't know what he thought in his heart, and even what he thought about the kiss when he parted in the depths of the demon forest, until now, Jian Lu didn't beat him again because of this, which proves that he can go further?

Jian Lu originally thought that he would not be able to sleep, but he didn't expect to lie on the bed and feel the breath of the people around him, and soon the sleepiness came up.

He felt that it must be because he was used to his aura when he was in the Demon Forest, and because he hadn't rested well in the past two months.

Just when he was sleeping in a blur, he felt Hines's restlessness wrapping up, and kicked him directly, "Sleep!" ”

"Jane, I ......"

"Sleep!"

Hines was silent, and he didn't dare to hug him again.

Jian Lu was slightly satisfied in his heart, although this bear child often did things that gave him a headache, he was still quite obedient sometimes.

Jian Lu, who fell asleep with such thoughts, would soon find out that he couldn't be soft-hearted about this person at all by the next day, because he would really get an inch!

When I woke up, I found that my key point was held up and down by a man of the same gender as myself, and that feeling was indescribable, and the whole person was not good.
