On the surface, this mission is no different from an ordinary escort mission, but Xilingchen's sixth sense is very accurate, especially after detecting Tumen Xue's level, it doesn't feel right.

Sure enough, shortly after the party leaves the city, Fluttershy discovers the situation.

Several demon ravens were flying in the air, not approaching the group, but following closely around them.

"Brother, there is a situation!" Fluttershy tells Xilingchen about this very quietly.

Demon crows, which are not found in the normal plane, are creatures that only exist in the demon plane, hell, purgatory, abyss and other planes, and the main function of the demon crow is remote monitoring, that is to say, someone controls these crows to monitor the progress of the team.

It was very far from Zhuguang City to Zifeng City, and it would take three days even to ride a horse.

There will definitely be no accident on the first day, because it is so close to the city, even if there are troops from the other world, there will be time to reflect, and if something happens, it will definitely appear on the second day.

Xilingchen quietly told Helena and Qiao Shi Shui Lan the news.

At least she will be careful after knowing it, Xiling Chen's main concern is still Qiao Shi Shuilan, if she really fights, her combat power will definitely be insufficient, the Blood Soul Knife has just been absorbed by her, and it will take a while to grow before she can take charge of herself.

Helena Xilingchen is not worried, she is at the level of a demon king.

There is another artifact and a demigod weapon in her hand, and it is estimated that there are more means than Xilingchen, and it is estimated that she will not be injured if Xilingchen is injured.

Helena controlled the war horse and Xilingchen to advance side by side.

Both of them have relatively high mental power, so they directly prop up a small mobile silent barrier so that the conversation will not be heard by others.

"What's wrong?"

Seeing Helena coming, Xi Lingchen asked suspiciously.

After hearing this, Helena said seriously: "It may be other demon kings in purgatory, because I also heard that other demon kings have acted when I came over." ”

"Is it the enemy?" Xi Lingchen asked.

Helena shook her head and said, "I don't know, I can only see when I meet the troops of Purgatory, it is very likely to be an enemy, because the force I am in, I am the only one who invades this plane, so it can't be my people." ”

"Is it possible from other planes?"

"It's possible that the abyss is as close to here as our purgatory."

Xiling Chen was silent for a few seconds after hearing this, and then said, "I'll call for support, I'm afraid that something stronger will appear." ”

"Then I'll call too." Helena said.

"You don't need it, I'll just let the Void Mecha protect us in the air." Xilingchen said.

"That's right."

On the first day, nothing happened, not even the little monsters appeared.

After all, he was on the main road, and he had just left the city.

As the sky gradually darkened, the team did not choose to stay up all night to advance, but found an open space to prepare for the night.

Xi Lingchen and the others naturally listened to the orders of their employers, so they also stopped to rest.

There were still demon crows nearby, and when Xilingchen saw this, he came to Helena's side and said, "Let me use the little devil horns, I'll go and clean up the crows nearby, and see if Tumen Xue knows about it, which has been a little uncomfortable for the crows to follow." ”

"Hmm."

After hearing this, Helena directly took off the little devil horn.

Originally, Xilingchen was going to carry it on his head, but who knew that Helena grinned and said, "Don't move, I'll help you bring it, otherwise I won't let you use it." ”

"Uh......"

In the end, it was Helena who brought the little devil horn to Xilingchen, and she herself took an ornament instead, and it looked the same.

Xilingchen came over to borrow the little devil horn mainly to solve the demon crow, because this creature can't do anything else, hiding is really powerful, with Xilingchen's own perception, he really doesn't dare to say that he can find it, but if there is an increase in the little devil horn, then there is no problem.

The increase brought by the demigod weapon is not comparable to ordinary equipment, even if Xilingchen can't exert all his abilities, it is several times stronger than fantasy equipment.

With the little devil horn, Xiling Chen sensed it and disappeared directly from the spot.

Xiling Chen's sudden disappearance of spatial fluctuations surprised Tumen Xue not far away, as well as her guards, because they didn't realize that Xiling Chen was a space magician.

With darts in hand, Xilingchen locked onto the two nearest demon crows.

Because the little devil horn increases the perception, Xiling Chen needs to use ordinary darts to kill the demon crow, the level of the demon crow is very low, only a dozen levels, which is why he can keep tracking a few people, the level is too low, and it is not noticeable.

The darts shot in an instant, and almost instantaneously eliminated the two demon crows.

Xilingchen did not stop but moved in the sequel, because there were more than two demon crows nearby, and after bringing the little devil horns, Xilingchen found seven.

Flashes constantly, followed by a dart attack.

In less than a minute, all seven crows were eliminated, and in order to ensure that the nearby crows were all cleaned up, Xilingchen scouted around the camp and finally determined that all of them were solved.

Using his spatial ability to control the corpses of the two demon crows, Xilingchen walked back to the camp.

"There's a demon crow watching us nearby."

After returning to the camp, Xilingchen left the corpse of the demon crow still on the ground.

The mental power quietly monitored Tumen Xue, and sure enough, she had a panicked look after seeing the crow's corpse, there was a problem!

It was certain that Tumenxue knew something, but her guards didn't.

"How can there be a demon crow here? Could it be an invasion from another world? ”

"I don't know, I wasn't sure at first, I thought it was just ordinary birds, after we set up camp here, none of these crows flew away, so I went to check, but I didn't expect it to be a demon crow."

"Let's be careful at night, there may be an otherworldly team around here, which can use demon crows to investigate, it must be a dark attribute plane, everyone be careful." Tumenxue's female guard said.

This guard is very strong, with fifty-one ranks.

Xiling Chen felt the breath of fantasy equipment from her, and there should be more than one.

The matter of the demon crow has passed, and the only thing that can be done at present is to take turns keeping vigil, because the crow cannot tell who the enemy is and where it is.

Returning to Helena's side, Xilingchen was ready to take off the little devil horn.

Seeing this, Helena immediately stopped Xilingchen: "You use it first, and I'll give it to me after the mission, you look good like this." ”

"Hmmm! I love it! ”

Fluttershy said, grabbing the corner of Xilingchen's clothes.

"Really?" Xiling Chen showed a puzzled expression, and he looked at Qiao Shi Shuilan, who was speechless next to him, and asked.

Qiao Shi Shuilan nodded when she saw this.

Rolling his eyes, Xilingchen took out a single sofa from the spatial ring, and then sat comfortably on it, which he brought from the earth, Fluttershy immediately threw herself into Xilingchen's arms, and then found a comfortable position and closed her eyes.

The group is very quiet, as Xilingchen is meditating and Fluttershy is sleeping.

And Helena looked at Xilingchen for a while, and looked at the sky for a while, and she didn't know what she was thinking.

Time passed little by little, and after more than two hours, it was completely dark, and the camp became very quiet, everyone ate and ate, slept and slept, waiting for the next day to move on.

At this time, Tumenxue and her maid came over.

Although Xilingchen was meditating, her spiritual power was covered all around, and she was discovered by Xilingchen after she came over.

Seeing Xiling Chen open his eyes, Tumen Xue immediately stopped and said with a smile: "Brother Chen, I saw that you didn't eat, so I brought you some food." ”

"Thank you, Snow Maiden." Xilingchen said.

So she looks pretty good.

Tumenxue's maid gave the food to Helena and Qiao Shi Shuilan, while she herself handed Xilingchen a bento.

Because Fluttershy was sleeping with Xilingchen's left hand, Xilingchen had to stretch out his right hand and take the bento, a very delicate box, and after opening it, he found that there were several dishes inside, and his mental power sensed the food of Helen and Qiaoshi Shuilan, and found that it was not the same.

"It's so hearty, thank you." In order not to wake up the sleeping Fluttershy, Xilingchen whispered.

"She's yours?"

"She's my sister."

Tumenxue blinked at Fluttershy as she was asleep, and then whispered, "Your sister is so cute." ”

"I think so too." Xi Lingchen said proudly.

Fluttershy is cute and anyone will like it, but no way, it's really cute.

"Where is Brother Chen?" Tumenxue asked curiously.

Xiling Chen naturally wouldn't tell the truth, so he said with a smile: "I came from the third layer of the Star Ring, and I am currently preparing to go to the Royal Academy of Magic of the Purple Phoenix Empire. ”

"What a coincidence, I'm a student of the Zifeng Royal Academy of Magic, I can take you on a tour when I get to the academy, is Brother Chen going to school?"

"No, we're going to be teachers."

Tumen Xue immediately became interested after hearing this, she knew from the guards that Xilingchen was only more than forty levels, originally thought that Xilingchen was going to school, but she didn't expect to go to the academy to be a teacher, the Royal Academy of Magic is not so easy to join, especially to be a teacher inside.

She guessed that Xilingchen was either strong or had something to do with it.

"What is Big Brother Chen going to teach? I'll definitely go and study when the time comes. Tumenxue said seriously.

"I don't know, let's see how it's distributed."

In order not to disturb Fluttershy's sleep, the two talk for a while, and Tumen Snow leaves.

From this conversation, Xiling Chen didn't ask for any useful information, and she couldn't see any connection between her and the demon crow, but it was certain that Tumen Xue knew about the demon crow.

He shook his head at Helena, indicating that he didn't see anything.

Seeing this, Helena had no choice but to continue in a daze, waiting for the next day to come.

Maybe it was because Xiling Chen solved the demon crow that was scouting, and nothing happened at night, it was very calm, and he didn't even continue to send the demon crow to investigate.

In the morning, as soon as the sun rises, the whole camp begins to prepare for departure.

Xilingchen has nothing to prepare here, only Qiaoshi Shuilan's tent needs to be dismantled, and Xilingchen only needs to put the sofa into the space ring.

Fluttershy wakes up from her sleep, and Xilingchen picks her up and takes the couch back.

"Good morning, brother!" Fluttershy said, pulling Xilingchen's left hand.

"Well, good morning!"

Seeing Fluttershy's cute appearance, her mood immediately improves.

Half an hour later, the team set off on time.

In the same formation as before, Xilingchen and several people rode white war horses to follow behind Tumenxue's carriage.

There was nothing wrong in the first few hours, and when it was almost noon, the demon crow appeared again, perhaps because Xilingchen killed all the demon crows yesterday, and this time the demon crow did not approach the team, but observed from a long distance.

But it's a pity that Xilingchen has Helena's demigod little devil horn, so he senses it at once.

The formation was activated, and Xiling Chen looked at Helena and said, "The demon crow has appeared, and I think maybe the battle will start soon." ”

"Would you like to warn them?"

"No, you don't." Xilingchen shook his head.

As it stands, the Demon Raven must have been coming towards the team, otherwise it would not have been possible to follow after leaving the city.

If it's an invasion from the otherworld, then reconnoiter and leave.

But now this situation is no longer reconnaissance, but tracking, determining the location of the squad.

If the enemy is going to attack, then it will start very quickly.

At this time, Xilingchen made a move to solve the demon crow, which would arouse the vigilance of the enemy, and maybe delay the time of the attack until the evening, and the vision at night was not very good, although Xilingchen and Helena were not afraid, but Qiao Shi Shuilan might be in danger, so Xilingchen did not shoot directly.

Hopefully, the enemy will attack during the day, which will be much easier.

Putting on high-tech sunglasses, Xiling Chen immediately connected to the two Void-level mecha in the sky, and sure enough, the Void Mecha found a force from Purgatory, the number was not very large, there were hundreds of people.

There is a Thousand Eyes and several Infernal Knights, and the others are low-level monsters.

Five kilometers away from the team, judging by the advancing route, it is estimated that they will meet in a few dozen minutes.

"It's the forces of Purgatory, about a thousand people." Xilingchen said.

Helena nodded after hearing this, thought for a while and said, "Look at the logo of this purgatory squad for a while, maybe I can recognize it, but it must be an enemy, because my people will not come out." ”

"Well, Fluttershy, you'll be able to control enemies above level 60 in a moment, and if you can't control them, let me know."

Fluttershy understands.

It is convenient to have high-altitude reconnaissance, Xiling Chen decided to go out in the future with a Void Mecha and stand by in the air, or pull Xiaoguang over.

Although Xiaoguang's level is not high, he has a complete range of functions, a pure auxiliary type of mecha.

But that's all for later, and the first question now is how to deal with the purgatory forces that will be met later.
