In the dark cave, Chen Ming slowly woke up from his coma, his blurred eyes looked around blankly, endless exhaustion devouring his spirit.

"Yo, awake?"

There was a weak teasing voice from the black rabbit beside him, "Is there a feeling of the aftermath of the catastrophe?"

"Don't mention it, this feeling is not the aftermath of the catastrophe. ”

With a helpless wry smile on his pale face, Chen Ming said, "Where are we?"

"Thanks to you, we're stuck in Anseville. ”

With an angry sneer, the black rabbit walked up to him and said, "The conscientious Captain Chenming sent everyone under his command away safely, but he didn't expect that he was in danger. ”

"They're here because of my mission, and I don't want to be burdened with more sin. ”

I wanted to get up hard, but found that I couldn't move at all, and Chen Ming, who was helpless, had to give up the struggle, and looked at the damp cave roof with a pair of blank eyes.

"Who do you think you are?

The black rabbit frowned and scolded, "You're just an ant struggling and crawling at the bottom of hell, even if you have some growth, you're just a bigger ant!"

"I'm sorry. ”

Without the slightest anger and humiliation, Chen Ming said lightly, he knew why the black rabbit was so angry, because he saved the knights who came with him, because he left himself in an extremely dangerous position.

"You're not sorry for me. ”

The black rabbit laughed angrily, "You're sorry, it's only you!"

"Black Rabbit ......"

Chen Ming was stunned, and finally seemed to understand something, and the smile on his face became more and more intense.

"Your smile makes me sick. ”

The Black Rabbit said indifferently, turning and leaving the cave, "Hypocritical human!"

"Thank you for your concern, I will adapt as soon as possible. ”

Looking at the back of the black rabbit leaving, Chen Ming smiled slightly, reached out and stroked the empty mouth on his chest like an abyss, and whispered, "It's better for me to be sad than to hurt my companion, at least it seems that I won't be so lonely anymore......"

......

For three whole days, Chen Ming lay there unable to move, while Black Rabbit would go out every day to hunt some beast corpses as food for the two of them to replenish the lost magic power.

With the powerful barrier set by the black rabbit, those low-level bone demons dare not approach, and the bone dragon has never appeared since it was plotted by the black rabbit and escaped with its severed tail.

"The recovery was pretty fast. ”

After checking Chen Ming's body slightly, the black rabbit breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It is estimated that in two more days, you will be able to move freely." ”

"I'm feeling good now. ”

Clenching his fists, Tatsu Ming smiled, "And I feel like my physique has become a little stronger again." ”

"When your magic ran wild, the Flame of Despair set a portion of the bone dragon's body on fire, and when it was retracted, it also swept some debris into its body. ”

Black Rabbit explained, "Although the human body is inherently weak, it has the only advantage that it can be infinitely enhanced, provided that there is enough fire to incinerate those things without harming itself, and coincidentally, the fire of despair is enough to incinerate the surface of the bone dragon. ”

"Hmmm......"

Chen Ming thought for a moment and said worriedly, "I won't turn into a bone dragon, will I?"

"Unless you have the appetite to swallow the whole bone dragon in one gulp, you have to make sure that you don't get overwhelmed by the majestic magic. ”

The black rabbit pouted, "What do you think?"

"Then I'm relieved. ”

Chen Ming breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked, "What about my team members, do you know their movements?"

"Them?"

For some reason, Chen Ming felt a violent anger brewing in the eyes of the black rabbit, "Those cowards, after leaving here, ran back to the first hell, I really don't know why you want to protect this group of garbage." ”

"Timidity is not something that humans have, and we have no reason to blame anything. ”

Chen Ming didn't have any surprised expression, but said flatly, "Just take it as a good deed every day." ”

"In hell, this kindness is the cheapest. ”

The black rabbit said indifferently, "If you do this again next time, I won't let you do it." ”

"Got it. ”

Chen Ming nodded, leaning against the cave wall tiredly, squinting and resting.

The black rabbit slowly faded away and said nothing.

Three days, while giving Chen Ming and the Black Rabbit enough rest, also let the bone demon of Ansville drill out of the ground again.

Millions of dream demons died in this land, and what they killed was only the tip of the iceberg.

A seriously injured man and a rabbit are slowly recovering from the lost realm that surrounds the bone demon, waiting for the opportunity to break through.

And just like that, another four days passed.

Seven days allowed Chen Ming to completely adapt to the new round of torture, and he regained his mobility.

"Looks like he's recovering well. ”

Compared to Chen Ming, the black rabbit's body was a full circle smaller than before, and forty percent of his flesh and blood were lost, and it was impossible to recover in a short period of time.

Chen Ming smiled, "We should leave here tomorrow." ”

"Hmm. ”

The Black Rabbit nodded and said, "The Bone Dragon was too scared to appear, but the Seventh-Order Bone Demon couldn't stop us from walking through the city and out of here." ”

"It's better to be careful. ”

Chen Ming said cautiously, "We still don't know much about the situation here, if we encounter an eighth-order dream demon like before, it will really be over." ”

"You thought I was Rice's unreliable guy?"

The black rabbit raised his eyebrows, which he couldn't see at all, and said, "During the time you were in a coma, I looked around here inside and out, except for that timid big guy, there was no eighth-order existence anymore. ”

"You can still be trusted. ”

Chen Ming praised without hesitation, "When I go back, I will invite you to dinner, and I will poison it myself." ”

"Don't say nice things about Lao Tzu. ”

Glancing at Chen Ming with disdain, the black rabbit said, "You should know that your current situation is not optimistic, remember not to let the magic power be consumed to the freezing point." ”

"I try. ”

Of course Chen Ming knew what the black rabbit meant, on his chest, the ghost pattern brand had not yet been closed, once his magic power dropped to the freezing point, the desperate magic that had been suppressed would explode again, and in the current state of the black rabbit, he no longer had the ability to launch a second magic.

......

The exit of the cave that was not too deep, and a faint light was scattered not far from Chenming, and he knew that the dawn had come.

"It's time for us to go. ”

Listening to the terrible roar coming from outside, Chen Ming touched the black ball that was sleeping on his shoulder, smiled slightly, and walked out of the hole where the hidden enchantment was set up.

"Click......"

The bone demon who had died once was particularly sensitive to the breath of life, and at the moment when Chen Ming just appeared, countless white bones rushed towards him.

"I've been with rabbits for a long time, and now I feel very kind when I see the bones in human form. ”

Teasing self-deprecatingly, Chen Ming waved his hand, and the blazing flames instantly spread all over the front, turning those low-level bone demons into ashes.

He walked slowly as he slaughtered the bone demon with impunity.

"I once read in the books that when the body of the bone demon dies, the souls imprisoned in the bones will lose their support and return to the River Styx, instead of letting you live like the walking dead, it is better to send you to the River Styx, at least so that you can still have your own consciousness. ”

As his steps faded away, behind Chenming, a path paved with black ash stood out in this world full of bones.

In front of him, an even more terrifying and powerful group of bone demons were moving towards him at a rapid pace.

"Have you reached the Seventh Order Territory?"

Feeling the fluctuations of his magic power, Chen Ming's eyes flashed with a touch of solemnity, even if his strength far exceeded that of ordinary high-level demons, but with such a huge group of bone demons, he was still a little powerless.

"It's impossible to kill them all. ”

Chen Ming thought to himself, "But if it's just a breakthrough, it's not difficult." ”

He pressed one hand on the magic guide book, and in an instant, two huge purple magic arrays blocked in front of him.

"Seventh-Order Magic, Infernal Flame!"

"Seventh-Order Magic, Great Hurricane!"

The fire borrowed the wind, and the two magic spells were intertwined, like a huge fire dragon with its head held high, and in an instant, it scattered the corpses in front of it, and pieces of charred black bones fell to the side, slowly growing and recovering.

And Chen Ming took advantage of the fact that the rest of the bone demons had not yet gathered, and quickly ran towards the city gate.

The place where the Black Rabbit and he healed was in a place deep in Anseville, extremely far away from the city gate, because of the large number of bone demons, coupled with the bone dragon that could come back to his senses at any time, he could not take the air route at all, he was afraid that he would become the target of the public.

Passing through the hinterland of the center without hindrance, a half-collapsed city wall finally appeared in front of Chenming's eyes.

"It's finally here. ”

Slowly breathing a sigh of relief, Chen Ming looked at the front of him with a smile, "This journey has been surprisingly smooth." ”

"Roar!"

In the distance, a long, menacing roar of a bone dragon was heard, as if to tell the creature who had invaded his territory not to let himself see him again.

"Don't worry, I'll come back next time. ”

Chen Ming laughed in a low voice, "I won't kill you, it's just that my subordinates just lack a mount, and you, a guy of the same level, are just right." ”

He didn't resent the bone dragon for injuring him, because for this land, he was the aggressor, and of course, since there was already a first time, then he didn't mind doing it a second time.

He walked towards the broken city wall, and as soon as he came to the gate of the city, Chen Ming stopped again.

"That's ......"

In the distant sky, there were a lot of figures stirring, which made Chen Ming's heart vigilant, because in that group of figures, there was a magic power that made his heart palpitate.

The speed of those figures was very fast, and after a while, they were already in Chen Ming's line of sight, led by a slender young man and a strong middle-aged man covered in armor.

"Captain Tatsunaru!"

The moment he saw Chenming, a look of surprise and joy appeared on the young man's face, and he quickly ran to Chenming's side, trembling his lips and unable to speak.

"Rice?"

Obviously a little surprised, the vice-captain who didn't know why he was back here, Chen Ming asked in surprise, "Didn't you go back to the Demon Palace, why did you come back again?"

"I ......"

Rice's voice was a little choked, and he said hoarsely, "I'll go back...... Move the rescuers ......"

"Forehead ......"

Speechless, Chen Ming was a little moved in his heart, opened his arms and hugged the young man who was already crying, and smiled, "Although it is redundant, thank you." ”

"Captain...... It's great that you're okay......"

Les wept and said, for a long time, but he never slowed down.

"Hmmm......"

Beside the two of them, the middle-aged man covered in armor coughed lightly and said in a deep voice, "Although I am very touched by your reunion, please pay attention to your surroundings." ”

Chen Ming realized that his posture of holding Les was a little ambiguous, and his old face suddenly turned red, and he looked at the back, and hundreds of eyes looked at them strangely.

"Ahem......"

Smiling awkwardly, Chen Ming saluted, "Thank you for coming to the rescue, Deputy Hall Master Gelie." ”

Glee shook his head and said, "You don't have to thank me, I will come here, and I will come here because I received the rescue mission issued by the second team." ”

"Rescue mission?"

Chen Ming was slightly stunned and looked at Les in confusion.

"That's right. ”

Restraining a trace of emotion, Les explained, "After I returned to the Demon Palace with my teammates, we used all our exploits to officially release the rescue mission for you in the Demon Palace, because of the particularity of the bone dragon, we also borrowed a lot of team members who did not come here, which was barely enough to invite the reward of the eighth-order demon, and the deputy hall master praised us very much, so he came in person." ”

Chen Ming was stunned in tears, he reached out and patted Les's shoulder, and said, "I'm very fortunate to have such an excellent subordinate as you, it's just your Gongxun ......."

"Once a task is posted, it cannot be returned, whether it is completed or not. ”

"I'm very touched by you, but I'm sorry, this is the rule of the Knight's Palace, and I must follow it. ”

"In order to be able to stay and continue to follow you, we have kept the minimum baron of the Knights. ”

Rice smiled, "Your brilliance is more attractive than those titles. ”

"Don't worry. ”

Chen Ming said solemnly, "Within three years, all your efforts will be rewarded, and at that time, I will repay you twice!"

Les saluted, "I believe in you. ”

"Alright. ”

Greel clapped his palms and said, "I'm a little embarrassed to get your Gongxun so easily, so in order to express my apologies, I can help you hunt the Bone Dragon, although if I interfere, the reward for your mission will be minimal." ”

"Thank you from the bottom of my heart, Deputy Hall Master Glie. ”

Chen Ming smiled and saluted, then shook his head and said, "But please forgive me for rejecting your kindness, I want to keep that bone dragon for the time being, and when I am strong enough in the future, I will come and solve everything." ”

"It's not big, but it's not ambitious. ”

Gleeha smiled and said, "Since you have such ambitions, then I won't take advantage of others, and it's not too early, so let's just go home, right?"

"Just follow your arrangement. ”

As the light of the magic array flickered, the figures of hundreds of people disappeared into Annsville and returned to the front hall of the Demon Palace.

"Mission accomplished. ”

Gelie took out the token and gently swiped it with his right hand, and a wonderful light flashed from above, revealing a long string of numbers, and the last few digits were constantly tumbling and changing.

"The 200,000 Gongxun of the second detachment of the Knight's Hall is confirmed to have received. ”

After the numbers were frozen, Glee withdrew the token, turned around and said, "Well, let's leave first." ”

With that, he left with his team into the distance.

"I'm sorry to trouble you. ”

Although it was extremely hidden, Chen Ming still saw Rice's flesh pain, and said with a smile, "I won't take a penny from the next mission, I'll leave it all to you." ”

"How can this be?!"

Les hurriedly shook his head, and was about to speak, but was interrupted by Chen Ming, "It's settled, don't say it again." ”

Les opened his mouth, but was glanced back at by Chenming, so he had to lower his head and said weakly, "Thank you, Captain." ”

"Thank you for not needing, I owe you something in the first place. ”

Chen Ming shook his head, turned around and said, "By the way, I have something to find the Lord of the Corvette Hall, do you know where he is now?"

"Corvette had just gone to the Elders' Pavilion when we came out. ”

Rice followed him and said, "He left us a message that if you come back, we will ask you to wait for him in his office." ”

"It seems that I'm not the only one who thinks too much. ”

There was an inexplicable glint in Chen Ming's eyes, "Since that's the case, then I'll wait for him to come back." ”

......

The Knight's Hall is still lit up late at night, and there seems to be no free time to rest here.

The hall master's office is on a separate floor on the highest floor of the knight's hall, and the extremely ornate decoration reveals a trace of luxury.

"The decoration here is good, Lord Corvette. ”

Sitting on the soft and comfortable sofa, Chen Ming glanced around, "I want to move it too." ”

"When I succeeded to the Lord of the Knight Palace, this was the case, if the young master likes it, I can also replace it for you. ”

Perhaps it was because of guilt, Corvette said with a dry smile.

"Forget it, it's very comfortable downstairs. ”

Chen Ming shook his head, looking at Corvette with indifference in his eyes, "However, can you please explain to me what this mission is all about?"

Corvette's eyes flickered, and he seemed to be a little hesitant, but he was stared at by Chenming's aggressive gaze, and finally sighed and said decadently, "This matter is my dereliction of duty as the hall master, and when Lord An Mixiu returns, I will personally ask the Lord to punish me." ”

"An Mixiu went out again?"

Chen Ming's heart suddenly burst into action, and then he suppressed it and said, "You still haven't told me, what's going on?"

"A traitor has appeared in the Knights' Palace, replacing your original mission with a bone dragon crusade in the Ansville Realm, which is still under investigation......"

Corvette said with a gloomy face, "Now, this traitor has been sealed away by me, and I will wait for the Lord to return and judge him." ”
