When the black flame emerged from the fish-man's body, mysterious magical runes appeared all over the man's body, and I felt a little dizzy after just a quick glance, and the red skin and the crooked horns on the top of the head all told me the truth about the implementation.

I thought that there was a hermit living in the mountains of this island, but I didn't expect that there was a demon living in the valley who came out of the flaming hell.

The Fish-Man King looked at the man in despair and begged him, "Oh, no, please......"

A black flame was like a petal flying in the air, falling slowly from his palm to the Fishman King's body, just the moment it touched the Fishman King's body, the flame seemed to fall into the oil pot, and the 'whew' ignited the Fishman King's whole body, and the face of the Fishman King in the flames was distorted, and he was burned to ashes before he could let out a wail.

Then the man turned his gaze to me, and with two purple flames burning in his pupils, he walked towards me.

His toes are obviously different from ours, there are two big toes on each footboard, and the front end of each big toe is separated to form two little toes, and the footprints left on the ground are only the front footboards, without heels, and his legs are more like two thick horse legs, which appear to be full of tension when walking.

I regret a little that I was so reckless, a demon lord could not stop my curiosity, and even ran to the belly of the mountain to fantasize about meeting the hermit in the mountain, but there was no hermit in this mountain, only a demon with a red complexion.

This demon didn't look like the Demon Lord in that he didn't have that much disgust.

It is said that the demon acts moody, but he has not shown it until now.

I sneaked around the Temporal Breaker's Hammer around my waist, thinking that the power of lightning in my body could almost hold up a portal, and that it was worth taking the risk at least when it was critical.

Seeing the demon approaching me, Karantso, Katarina, Ruka the Minotaur, and Justes leaned forward on guard, trying to squeeze in front but I stopped them with my hands.

The demon took the initiative to stop and looked at me seriously, showing some appreciation under his crimson face.

I untied the whistle around my neck and reached out and handed it to him.

It looked a little surprised, shook the black flame off its hand, rubbed it its chest, took the whistle into its hand, and smiled stiffly at me.

Then he said to me, "It must be not easy for you to find this place." ”

Although I knew that he didn't speak Greene Chinese, it was strange that I could understand it, and my intuition told me that I could actually talk to him.

However, hearing this Mr. Demon greeting me still made me a little speechless.

“......”

I didn't know how to answer, so I just nodded.

At this time, I couldn't help but think in my heart: Could it be that the High Demons would be so kind when they spoke?

I could also faintly see some rune marks on his face, as if his body was completely filled with all kinds of runes.

His purple eyes landed behind me with a smile in his eyes and asked me, "These people are your friends?"

I nodded again and turned my head to look at Ying Li, her face a little pale and looking at the demon with a wary expression.

"Are they important to you?" the demon asked me again.

I said, "Yes." ”

When I said this, I made a very strange sound in my throat, like a snoring in my sleep, and the strange sound startled myself.

The smile on the demon's face was even kinder, but then a look of surprise appeared on his face, and he asked me suspiciously, "Hey, where are your horns?"

My horn?

I looked confused, not knowing what he meant.

I wonder if it was a slip of his tongue. Because for demons, horns are the most important component of the body.

Seeing my expression, the demon quickly covered his face with one hand, narrowed the distance between him and me nervously, and then nervously said to me, "Your eyes tell me...... You're confused,...... Oh, maybe I said something I shouldn't have said. ”

He tapped his head in some distress, and then leaned up to my face with a treacherous smile in his eyes, and asked, "Have you never seen your parents?"

Hearing him ask this, I suddenly felt some unexplained excitement in my heart, so I hurriedly asked him, "Do you know me, and do you know my parents?"

Suddenly, I noticed the demon with a hand on my shoulder, and before that, I hadn't seen how he had come.

He put his arm around my shoulders, took me two steps forward involuntarily, and said, "...... I don't know anything, maybe one day you will know, but not now, and never from my mouth, I'm a righteous demon who doesn't talk about anything else behind my back...... e.g., e.g. ...... You know...... There are things I can't say because it's the rule. ”

He bites the word 'rules' hard and repeats it again.

He took me by the shoulders and went to the outside of the magic light shield, and said to me very eagerly:

"Actually...... We have to follow the rules of many things, like entering a certain plane, then you have to follow the laws of that side. ”

I think he seems to treat me like a junior to be taught.

When he squinted, the purple fire kept beating.

He said to me, "There are some things in each plane that are different, some you can see and some you can't, and you are a very good young man. ”

I think he may have been alone in the belly of the mountain for too long, and it was hard to see someone to talk to, so it was like having a stomach full of endless words.

This demon seems to know my origins, and there is a good chance that he knows who my parents are, but for some reason, he can't tell.

I was tempted to ask something about me, but I kept my mouth shut.

He may have made some kind of oath that is why he remained silent about it.

The demon stood side by side with me, smiled lightly, and said, "Aha, I feel happy when I think about it, I'm happy, although I didn't get a complete soul this time, but it's nothing to me, I've been waiting here for so long, and finally someone is willing to take my place." ”

He cut a hole in the magic light mask, and then remembered something and quickly pulled the hole shut, and said to me excitedly: "Nothing, this makes people even more happy." ”

He pointed to the herb garden inside the magic light shield and continued, "I think it's necessary to explain to you before I go, yes! ”

I looked at the grumbling demon with some confusion, at the place where he was pointing with his finger.

Then I heard him swear to me: "I just made a vow that whoever can free me from this place will henceforth be the master of this place, and you should not underestimate this place, this is a wonderful place." ”

I was completely confused, through the magic light shield, I could see the general situation of the magic herbs in this herb garden, and preliminarily judged that these magic herbs were basically in the mature stage, and a demon gave me such a large herb garden...... This is a huge fortune, at least for the Grimm Empire, which is extremely short of magical herbs, such a herb garden can at least cause great turmoil in the magical herb market in the imperial capital.

After thinking about it, this matter doesn't make sense.

"Where are you going when you gave me this herb garden?" I couldn't help but ask him, because he said he was leaving.

"The Outlands are so big, I want to take a look everywhere and hear about the queen of the Winged Terrans...... Forget it, it's useless to tell you this, let's talk about this medicine garden in the valley. The demon said to me, "Have you ever heard of the knot of time?,"

I shook my head again, indicating that I didn't know.

The demon explained to me, "Generally speaking, we are used to calling the place where many rivers of time meet as time knots, but in fact the heart of this valley belongs to time knots, and there are at least eight time rivers here, so the time flow inside the magic light shield is at least eighty times faster than outside, do you know what that means?"

I subconsciously thought that I could transform this place into a domestication base, and if I could raise some wurm or wyvern cubs here, I could train some dragon knights.

But I immediately realized that since there were so many magical herbs grown here, ......

Sure enough, Mr. Demon told me:

"This is a natural herb garden, where some medium-grade magic herbs are planted in a not too picky environment, every day spent on this island, the herb garden in the belly of this mountain is actually equivalent to spending eighty days, the average maturity period of these magic herbs is about twenty years, then you only need to wait for three months, and the magic herbs in the herb garden in the belly of this mountain will enter the maturity period. ”

When he talked about this, he looked a little proud, as if he was introducing his own proud work.

Then he said to me, "I sealed the time knot here with a magic array, and as long as I don't walk into this magic light shield, I can't feel the speed of time. ”

I opened my mouth wide and watched a little speechlessly at the valley floor overgrown with lush magical herbs, wondering why this demon had such a gift to me.

The demon didn't care how complicated my mood was at the moment, and said directly: "In the next period of time, you are the manager of this herb garden, pay attention to come to harvest herbs regularly, don't let the magic herbs in this herb garden grow wildly, in that case, it is very likely that the medicine garden that I have worked so hard to open up will be wasted, as the manager here, you can control the potions you harvested." ”

“...... Oh, and I almost forgot to tell you that it's an hourglass of time that will keep you from the speed of time when you enter this herb garden. ”

The demon reached out and touched the horns of his head, as if a forgetful person had suddenly thought of something, and then he pulled out a bronze-framed crystal hourglass from behind his leather skirt, which contained some glittering golden sand, and when he picked up the hourglass, I felt that his whole being had become a little unreal.

Hearing him say that this hourglass is the 'hourglass of time' as it is recorded in many books on the history of magic, I almost felt like I was about to suffocate.

At the beginning, His Majesty Ogholas of the Grimm Empire wrote the famous "Magic and Time Relativity", and many history books recorded that he was inspired by the 'Time Hourglass' at that time, and later His Majesty's work became an important milestone in the history of magic in the Grimm Empire.

To this day, the first course in the Grimm Empire's primary magic academy is still 'Time Stasis' magic, and many magicians in the Grimm Empire believe that this magic is the foundation of all magic, although I don't agree with this view, but I do not deny the importance of 'time stasis' magic.

And this hourglass that appeared in front of my eyes, called the 'hourglass of time', made me a little dumbfounded.

Seeing my expression, the demon casually shoved the hourglass into my hand and said to me, "Hey, don't think it's so magical, it's not an ancient artifact that can go back in time, it's just an imitation, or not even an artifact imitation, at best it's just a high-level magic item." ”

I looked down at the hourglass in my hand, and the history books never said that the 'hourglass of time' could also 'go back in time'.

The demon took back the steps he had intended to take, and then patiently explained to me:

"Okay, don't look at me like this, it's not as magical as you think, and the principle is very simple, that is, during the time of inverting the hourglass, you can keep the hourglass holder in a state of subdimensional space, so that even when you collect the magic herbs that have entered the mature stage in the herb garden, the time flow rate in the time knot will not affect you. ”

I looked at the hourglass in my hand again and thought to myself: Isn't it amazing enough to be in subdimensional space for a long time?

The demon reached out and scratched his neck, took out a silver key from his body again, threw it on the hourglass copper top cover with a thud, and said to me nonchalantly: "This is the magic key to enter the magic light shield, and the spell is also recorded in it, and it also records some experiences about cultivating these herbs, and before I know it, I have said so much, so be it." ”

Before I could even say thank you, his figure began to sway through the air like a speck of phantom dust, and his voice rang out:

"I can't wait for the rest of my trip......"

I licked my lips, a little confused as to why this demon had entrusted this place to me.

When I turned back to look at Ying Li and the others, the women of Ying Li also looked at me with questions on their faces, and there seemed to be a lot of questions in their eyes.

Before I could say a word, a crack suddenly opened in the air in front of me, and the demon's red head poked out of the crack, and said to me with a somewhat serious expression: "By the way, I almost forgot to remind you that before you become a legendary mage, it's best not to run around, such as a whim, a trip to the outer realms or something!"

“......”

I looked at him speechlessly.

Until now, I didn't know his name.
