In the center of the Demon Palace, in front of an ancient small building, Chen Ming and Sha Qiluo snuggled up to each other, and the mist emitted by the hot spring did not hide the brilliant starry sky, but added a hazy feeling to this small world.

"Tomorrow, I'm going to set out to hunt the bone dragon. ”

Holding the girl who seemed to be asleep in his arms, Chen Ming said lightly, "There may be no way to come here to accompany you for half a month." ”

"I can not let you go. ”

Shaqiro squinted her eyes and said with her small mouth closed, "I can make you strong and carefree as long as you want." ”

"The Almighty Shakira. ”

Helplessly patting the girl's little head, Chen Ming smiled, "Becoming stronger, I can do this kind of thing myself, as for carefree, this should have been given to you by me, why did you let me give it to me?"

He raised his head and looked at the familiar sky, "You, don't give me too many things, how many things you gain means how many things you lose, I don't want to lose you because I get power." ”

Shaqiro opened her eyes and looked up at the young man's side face, "That's why I didn't force you to do anything, and I'm also selfish if I think like this." ”

"No one is selfless. ”

Chen Ming smiled and said, "Be selfish to get more." ”

"Hmm. ”

......

The dawn of the morning shone in the knight's hall and fell on Tatsumei's cheek through the window.

"I always feel like I'm in love with my dreams......"

Slowly opening his eyes, Chen Ming smiled bitterly and muttered, the small world in the center of the Demon Palace is extremely strange, there is no sense of the flow of time, it may be instantaneous, it may be eternal, he can only feel that Shaqiluo is real, so that world is also real.

Rubbing his sour eyes, he looked out the window and called out softly, "Rice." ”

"Captain, I'm here. ”

The bedroom door opened, and Les walked in, saluting, "The team is still assembled, you can rest a little longer." ”

"No need. ”

Stretching, Chen Ming got up and got out of bed, and said with a smile, "The first time I am on a mission with you, as the captain, of course I can't be late." ”

Compared with before, there was a hint of emotion on Les's face now, and after a battle in the training ground, he was also completely impressed by this young man from the human world.

When Les left the room, Tatsunami began to wash up and dress, although this series of things could be done more quickly with magic, but he didn't like it, in his own words, it was a proof that I was still a human.

Leaving the public area of the Knight's Palace, Chen Ming and Les came to the square in front of the hall one after another.

At this time, there were about two hundred knights in armor standing in the square, and these were the subordinates led by Chen Ming on this trip.

After standing still, Les flipped through the document in his hand and said, "The mission we need to carry out is located in a lost place in the sixth hell, the lost country called Ansville, which was originally a small country founded by the patriarch of a branch of the Dream Demon Clan, and was later destroyed by the Eighth Order Storm Dragon, and the storm dragon was finally lost there because of the Nightmare of the Dream Demon, and he never left until he died. ”

Turning the next page, he continued, "Since our level is not enough to support us through the world barrier, this time, we need to go with the Mist Demon Aster, and he will take us to the Mist Demon's national costume first, and then set off to find Onsville. ”

"Going to a strange land, we also need to familiarize ourselves with the environment, and landing in the Fog Demon Country is also a good choice, so let's do it. ”

Chen Ming said, "Where's Mr. Aster?"

Les replied, "He's already waiting in the teleportation front hall, and as long as we get there, we can open the dimensional teleportation." ”

"So what are you waiting for?"

Chen Ming smiled, took out the token, and after instilling magic power, everyone was shrouded in the magic array, and after the bright light flickered, the entire team disappeared there.

In the front hall of the Demon Palace, an old man in a silver-gray robe stood at the edge of the square in the front hall, overlooking below.

It wasn't until the strong light behind him went out that the old man turned around and saluted to Chen Ming, who was the leader, "Captain Chen Ming, please take care of me when we meet for the first time." ”

"Please take care of it. ”

Chen Ming smiled back and stepped forward, "I'm going to trouble Mr. Asther this time, otherwise, we're afraid we'll have a headache." ”

"Hehe, the captain is polite. ”

Asther chuckled, "I happen to be going back to the Sixth Hell, and I know your hall master well, so you are welcome to do this little thing." ”

"Hmm. ”

Chen Ming nodded and asked, "Then we'll leave now?"

"Good. ”

Asther nodded, his palm flicking slightly, and the magic like a gray mist spread from his body, instantly enveloping Chen Ming and everyone behind him.

The Mist Demon is a disembodied demon formed by the condensation of the earth element and the water element, and is good at psychedelic magic and earth and water element magic, and Aster's magic power level is the eighth order, if he releases psychedelic magic, I am afraid that a small country can be immersed in the environment for ten years......

After coming to hell for so long, although Chen Ming has not seen all the intelligent beings in hell, through books, he has also learned a lot of life characteristics, and the fog demon is also one of them.

"This gray fog is both magic and the essence, and the world is really full of wonders. ”

With a word of praise in his heart, Chen Ming closed his eyes and felt the rhythm of the water vapor.

"Teleportation magic, plane teleportation. ”

Asther's old voice sounded, and the rich purple magic array instantly lit up the thick fog, making this gray fog world a little illusory and beautiful.

However, in an instant, the light of the magic array gradually dimmed, and the surrounding fog gradually dissipated, Chen Ming slowly opened his eyes and scanned the surroundings.

"This is the Fog Demon Realm Buddha. ”

Asther turned and looked at the mountain city that was shrouded in infinite gray mist, revealing only a hill, "Although it is only a small country, our life is free. ”

Chen Ming smiled and nodded, he knew that the gray mist shrouded in the mountains was the clansmen of the Mist Demon Clan, "It's indeed free, but I just don't know, is there a place for us here?"

"Absolutely. ”

Aster nodded and smiled, "Follow me." ”

A group of more than 200 people, led by the old man, walked towards the area shrouded in thick fog.

As soon as he stepped into the thick fog, Chen Ming felt a trace of coldness, and when he looked up, he was slightly shocked.

The city in front of you is arranged in a trapezoidal order from bottom to top, and below the gray buildings, there are many people walking through the streets, and in addition, there are vendors shouting and shouting from the stalls.

"These are the people of our country, and in order to maintain a stable living environment, we usually turn half of our bodies into a thick fog and spread out over the Buddha to block out the sun. ”

While leading them forward, Aster introduced, "Our kingdom is not strong, up and down, and there is only me as an eighth-order demon, and more, there are children with low magical power, fortunately, we have no body, and we have no desire to fight, so there are no people from the hostile camp eyeing us." ”

"With Mr.'s strength, I should be able to find a more suitable place to live. ”

Chen Ming was puzzled, "Why did you choose to live on such a rocky mountain with few resources?"

"Captain Tatsunami is right, the forest is more suitable for us to inhabit than the rocky mountains. ”

Aster smiled, "But my strength is at the bottom of the eighth order, even if I snatch a forest, I don't have the ability to defend it, our fog demon has no body, it is not suitable for too much turmoil, too many migrations will lead to the death of a large number of fellow clans, so instead of fighting for the forest that will be taken away at any time, it is better to survive in a barren place, although weak, but no one bother." ”

Chen Ming was speechless, everyone has their own way of life, the fog demons are in a safe corner, they don't fight or grab, he thinks there's nothing wrong, in fact, he also thought about having such a life, but now he has enough reasons for him to chase, so he will give up this idea.

He won't change the mind of the Mist Demon, and the Mist Demon doesn't need him to change either.

After walking for more than an hour, they came halfway up the mountain, and Aster waved his hand to a wide clearing not far away, and said, "Because there are so many people on your trip, there are not so many rooms here for you to settle in, but that open space can be used to set up tents for you, and I will also order you to go down, and no one will disturb you." ”

Chen Ming bent over and saluted, "Thank you again, sir." ”

Asther smiled and shook her head, then dissipated into a gray mist.

After the old man left, Chen Ming turned to Les and said, "Tell me to go down and set up camp." ”

"Yes. ”

Les bowed, then stepped back.

Military tents were erected in the open field, and the demons who were soldiers were very familiar with this kind of thing, and in just half an hour, all the tents had been set up, and the demon servants who accompanied the army were also preparing their food.

Because of the dense fog, there was no sunlight, so even during the day, Chenming still lit candles in the tent.

At the table, Chen Ming and Rice sat opposite each other, and in front of them was an accurately drawn map.

"According to the map marking, Ansville is five hundred kilometers away from Forg, and because of the fear of the attack of the bone dragon, there are basically no demons to gradually move the city around there. ”

Les looked at the map and pointed to the red marker on it, "With the speed of our march, we can get there in about a day or a night, but the problem is that we don't know the specifics of Annsville, and if we approach rashly, we are afraid that we will be attacked by some danger that may exist there." ”

"Hmmm......"

Chen Ming pondered for a moment and said, "If Yumaya takes the Detection Demon to explore quickly, just appearing on the periphery, the probability of the bone dragon attack will not be too large, plus their number is small, even if they encounter other dangers, with their strength, they can retreat safely." ”

"Maya is a storm dragon, and it only takes two hours to go back and forth with him. ”

Rice agreed, "It's really the safest way to go, and I'll do it now." ”

He was just about to get up, but was stopped by Chen Ming, "Let them rest for the night first, and then talk about it tomorrow." ”

"Why?"

Les was stunned and puzzled, "The situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly, we ......"

"This is not a battlefield. ”

Chen Ming smiled and shook his head, and said, "What we want to attack is a dragon type demonic beast that is higher than ours, although I don't know how you feel, but I have also been in the third hell and the seventh hell, the environment of each layer of hell, the concentration of mana, and some other elements are different, the fighter is important, but adjust the state and adapt to the environment well, in order to fight better, isn't it?"

"This ......"

Les hesitated, but was forced back to his seat by Chen Ming, "Sharpening knives is not a mistake for woodcutters, it's not bad for this day, you have this kung fu to worry about, why don't you drink and chat with me." ”

Les just wanted to refuse, but was glared back by Chen Ming, and in desperation, he had to "compromise" to accompany the young man to drink ale and chat about some unnutritious topics.

The ale wine brewed by the dwarves has its own unique strongness, and Les, who doesn't drink much, fell asleep on the table after being poured two glasses by Chenming.

Chenming, who was drinking alone and tasteless, had to staggered out of the tent and sat on the edge of the open space with a wine jar and looked at the gray sky in a daze.

"Black Rabbit, come out and talk to me?"

Holding the wine jar and taking a sip, Chen Ming called drunkenly.

"What's the matter, little drunkard?"

On his shoulder, a fluffy black ball swayed, "Is it empty and lonely and cold?"

Not paying attention to its teasing, Chen Ming nodded and said, "Have you ever seen the will of hell?"

"Of course I did. ”

The black rabbit said proudly, "Lao Tzu also fought with her." ”

"Oh?"

Chen Ming sighed lightly and said, "Who wins and who loses?"

"Of course we lost. ”

Without feeling the slightest shame, the Black Rabbit said, "That guy is the strongest terrifying existence in hell, at the beginning, Icarus, our comprehensive strength is even stronger than the current An Mixiu, but I haven't even seen what she looks like, Icarus was killed, and I was banished in hell by her." ”

"Believe it or not......"

Maybe it's because he drank too much wine, Chen Ming's tone of voice was a little hazy, "I've seen her ......"

"Have you seen her?"

The black rabbit laughed mockingly, but laughed and smiled, but it restrained its expression, and it muttered expressionlessly, "Of course I believe that the little guy who is stunned doesn't know what fear ...... is."

"Plop ......"

The wine in the jar wet the drunk young man who fell to the ground, and rolled down weakly, and the black rabbit looked at him with a sigh, "Falling in love with her is destined to be doomed, Chen Ming, you shouldn't have met her, from the beginning, this is the wrong ......"

The soft snoring sounded, and the young man did not hear the black rabbit's low murmur, and the corners of his slightly open mouth had a touch of curvature, as if he had had some beautiful dream.

"You know it's like this, but you still ...... like this"

The figure of the black rabbit slowly faded away, and in the silent clearing, there was only a little conversation between the demons, and it sighed helplessly, "Ask for more blessings, young ......"

......

Under the gloomy sky, a cyan dragon crawled on the edge of the clearing, and behind it, four emaciated figures stood.

In front of the dragon's head, Tatsunaru and Les stood.

"While intelligence is important, your lives are even more important. ”

Smiling and stroking the tip of the dragon's nose, Chen Ming said, "If you encounter any danger that you can't resist, remember to withdraw immediately!"

"Captain rest assured. ”

The dragon's mouth closed one by one, "The Storm Dragon is known for its speed, and I am still at the peak of the seventh order, as long as I don't encounter the Bone Dragon, I won't be able to escape!"

"Well, I trust you. ”

Chen Ming nodded and said, "Let's go." ”

After the two of them retreated, the cyan dragon spread its wings and swept towards the distant sky, and behind it, an endless hurricane blew and increased its speed.

"Captain, why don't you let me go with them?"

Seeing Maya leave, Les asked puzzledly, "My exploration magic is the best here, and my magic level is about the same as Maya's, with me here, isn't their safety factor higher?"

"Will not leave the nest. ”

Chen Ming said softly, "Although you are my assistant, you are also one of their commanders, before the situation is confirmed, it is extremely dangerous and stupid for the leader to leave, I don't know how you did it before, but now I am your captain, I must be responsible for everyone!"

He turned around and looked at Les, who was still unwilling, "Courage is an advantage, but it is also a weakness of the unscrupulous, Rice, I know you are worried about them, and I am also worried about them, so don't worry, I won't joke with their lives." ”

Les's eyes changed, and after silence, he bent over and said, "It's the subordinates who are reckless." ”

"It seems that in the past, these demon knights would only go on a rampage, without any strategy and planning......"

Looking at the bloodthirsty demon in the back, and glancing at Les, who bowed his head and admitted his mistake, Chen Ming knew in his heart, waved his hand, and said, "You go down and prepare first, and when they come back, we should set off." ”

Les should have been, turning to leave.

After watching him leave, Tatsunami turned around again and looked in the direction where Maya had left.

While he sends Maya and four Quest Demons to Annsville, he also has another one secretly following, the Black Rabbit.

It's not that Chen Ming doesn't trust Maya and them, it's just that he needs to be cautious and prepared, that unknown place is the place where the eighth-order demonic beasts live, and he always feels that it won't be so simple.

He didn't know the real combat capabilities of this team, so this arrangement for him was just a known key to the unknown shackles, and at a critical time, this key could open the shackles and save something.

Retracting his gaze, Tatsunami left the edge of the clearing and walked towards his tent, the magic of staying active at any time was ready to come out, he was ready for battle.

"How strong is the eighth-order demonic beast, I really want to try it......"
