Chapter 304: The Missing Diablo (2)
In the dry highlands settlement, when Mephisto and Barr realized that Diablo had not returned to the Dreadful Demon Palace of Hell, Diablo had been living here for nearly half a month, and as a once powerful demon king of hell, he could live with a group of ordinary humans without incident, which made Diablo himself feel incredible.

During this time, Diablo himself had to admit that life here seemed to be completely different from his days as a demon king, here Diablo assumed the name of Diallo, and integrated into this settlement in the image of a human being, although this settlement is not very large, but the facilities inside are very complete, of course, in addition to the hospital, people here are sick or injured by the healing potions issued by the Huls Federation, and the quota of each settlement is fixed, And after Diablo officially became a member of this settlement, he also received his share from the administrative office in the settlement regularly, but after Diablo recovered from his injury, he handed over his quota to the captain of the guardian team who brought him back.
In addition to surrounding the settlement, the captain of the guardian team also has a mission to teach the children some history of humanity, heaven, and hell in the school of the settlement, but this job was not long taken over by Diablo, Diablo stood in front and looked at the children below with a pair of immature eyes full of curiosity, at this time Diablo suddenly felt a little strange, and at this time Diablo did not stand on either side's perspective when telling history, Instead, from the perspective of fairness and justice, he told that dark history to the children impartially.
"Mr. Diallo," a childish voice asked, "Why do hell and heaven fight in our human world?" β
Diablo turned his head to look, it turned out to be the little girl who brought him medicine on the day he first came, but the little girl's question made Diablo unable to answer, because from the beginning to the end, their hell side, maybe the heaven side, did not think about why they fought in the human world, or even why they invaded the human world, Diablo could only say apologetically at this time: "I'm sorry, I think even the hell demon king, or the angels of Tianyang can't answer this question..."
After Diablo finished speaking, it was already time for the end of class, so he let the children play, but these children were still very interested in pestering Diablo to listen to the previous history, which were very interesting stories for them.
And the civilians of the settlement also saw that Diablo was very knowledgeable, and they were very relieved to let the children listen to Diablo talk about some of the history of the world here, and even some of the history that the transferees did not know.
"The children love you, Mr. Diallo," said the captain of the Guardian, Simon, and smiled as he handed a bottle of wine to Diablo, who was sitting on the edge of the door.
Diablo didn't think of himself as a fear demon king at this time, but Diallo in the settlement, took the fruit wine handed over by Captain Simon, and said, "Thank you, Simon can tell me about how you used to live, even when the Huls Federation didn't appear." β
"At that time," Simon said a word, then took a sip of the wine in his hand, and continued: "Compared to now, the previous life was like a nightmare, at that time, the transferee was the pillar of this human world, no civilian dared to provoke the transferee, and if he provoked, he would be killed in vain, in the Rog Fortress, fortunately, the children of the civilian family can also apply for a free transfer test, if the girl does not have the talent of the transferee, she can also go to the Rogue training camp rebuilt by Lord Kasha, As long as you become Rogge, you can still give your family a little income and let your family live, and if you are more fortunate enough to become a follower of a genius who has changed careers, you can also make your family a servant of a certain family, just like those Rog Ladies of the Necromantic Sword God..."
"Necromantic Sword God?" Diabloc said.
Simon smiled: "It's Lord Chen Chen, the Lord of the Stars, the Lord of the Hall of Stars, and the guardian of the Huls Federation, because although this Lord is a necromancer, no one has ever seen the staff in his hand, and the enemy has always been a long sword called Starlight, so everyone calls this Lord the Necromancer Sword God, and the god-like existence guards the Huls Federation." β
"Oh, that's right, you go on to say what life would be like for girls in other places who had no parents orphaned before they became converts," Diablo asked.
Simon took a sip of wine, shook his head and said: "That's very bad, basically in this case, that kind of child basically can't survive for long, even if he can survive, the situation is very bad, in Rogge Fortress because of the orphanage established by Lord Chen Chen, the situation is much better, in Lugoin, Kurast and Harlogas The situation is very bad, basically a hundred such children survive in a few years and the amount is less than ten, either starved to death, or was caught for stealing, It's even more miserable to become a rival in love after hard work, and in the end I don't know where I'll die..."
Hearing Simon's words, Diablo fell silent, in fact, when Diablo possessed the dark wanderers, he had seen a tragic scene in human society, countless children died quickly because of various dangers, and some were caught by monsters outside and became a delicacy in the monster's mouth, and suddenly Diablo felt that his daughter Leah also had such an experience, and he had a very worrying feeling in his heart.
At this time, Simon continued: "But it's better now, in less than three months, Lord Chen Chen's Star Hall will take in some orphans, and the Huls Federation has also established orphanages in various cities, so these children's lives are gradually guaranteed, and they also have a future." β
Simon's words made Diablo's mood fluctuate, and a feeling of guilt made Diablo feel very strange, as the demon king, Diablo didn't expect that he would have such emotions, but as his only heir, Leah, Diablo had a very bad feeling at this time.
At this time, Diablo was in a state of uneasiness, and a pair of eyes were peering into the place in the shadows of the settlement's buildings, and when the owner of the eyes spied on the human figure Diablo who was sitting and drinking with Simon, his eyes showed a look of horror and disappeared into the darkness in the next moment.
Diablo felt a little strange and looked back at the dark shadow, but at this time there was nothing left, and Diablo didn't see anything but his own illusion...
...................
One day half a month later, the stars collared
"Senior brother..."
Once again, he made a deal with Durrell and returned to the territory when Ray heard Bruce's shouts as soon as he entered the door.
"What's wrong, Bruce," Ray asked, as he put his belongings down.
Bruce walked up to Ray and said nervously to Ray, "Something happened, a settlement on the dry highlands was attacked, and the entire settlement was destroyed. β
"What's going on?" Ray immediately became serious when he heard this, in the situation in front of him, there could be no large-scale monster attack that could destroy the settlement, and there would be a joint patrol patrolling the dry highlands at regular intervals, Ray then asked, "What about our patrol, did they find anything?" β
"The patrol was dealing with another monster attack, there were nine scarabs, but those nine scarabs were very strange, the banshee team and our team sent out took a lot of effort to kill these nine scarabs, and at this time the settlement had been attacked, and when the patrol found out that the anomaly arrived, it had been razed into ruins."
"It seems that things are very tricky, let's go and report this matter to the master," Lei said, and walked towards Chen Chen's residence with Bruce.
At this time, Chen Chen also received the relevant report, but this report came through unofficial channels, and at this time, Andariel, Flavi, Galadia, Miria and Flora were all in the room, and a map of the distribution of dry highland settlements was placed on the table.
"Master, we've received word that a settlement in the Dry Heights has been destroyedβ" Bruce said as he pushed the door in, not seeing anyone in the room.
Chen Chen said: "Bruce, you are still so reckless..."
"Ahh β
"Why do you want to be investigated?" Andariel laughed.
"Hehe..."Bruce said with a smile: "Master, you see that I haven't been out for many days, is this task entrusted to me to lead the team." β
"Don't worry, Bruce," Chen Chen said, casually pointing to the location of the attacked settlement on the map, and said, "It's less than a hundred kilometers from this settlement here, and this place is where I fought with Diablo before."
"Honey, do you mean to say that Diablo attacked there?" Galadia said.
Chen Chen shook his head and said, "I don't think so, because it's not necessary, if it's because of Leah's relationship, Diablo will make Leah hate his father even more..."
"If it weren't for Diablo, there would be the one who could destroy it all so that the inhabitants wouldn't even have time to evacuate," Miria said.
Chen Chen couldn't think of it at this time, Masayir's angel legion didn't move at all at this time, but when he appeared with the arrogant character of an angel, he would definitely be extravagant, and the patrol team would definitely see it, and Aenarius had been pinned down in the demon hill at this time, according to Gavin's report a few days ago, the battle in the demon hill had restarted, and the attack intensity of the fallen angel legion of Aenarius had increased a lot.
"I can't think of it, it seems that I have to go and see it to find out that this is the case," Chen Chen shook his head, stood up and said, "Bruce, gather your team, and we will set off for the dry highlands in a moment." β
"Yes, master," Bruce replied happily, and turned and ran out to gather men.
Lei stepped forward and asked, "Master, what about me." β
"You guys just came back, go and get some rest, don't let this matter affect Leah," Chen Chen said.
Lei nodded and said, "I know, master, then I'll go back." β
"Well, go ahead," Chen Chen said.
Ray saluted Andariel and waited for the ladies before leaving.
Andariel and Galadia followed Chen Chen on this trip, while Flavi and the others stayed in the territory, this time the time was very strange, not everyone could leave, and after half an hour, Chen Chen, Andariel, Galadia, and the Bruce team set off for the scene of the incident in the dry highlands.
A few hours later, Chen Chen and his party came to the destroyed settlement, and as soon as they approached the settlement, Chen Chen, Andariel and Galadia, as well as Bruce, felt a strong fire energy, and the traces caused by this fire energy to the ground were very strange.
"What's going on?" Galadia said as she touched the ground, which had been burned into crystallization by the flames.
Andariel looked at the traces on the ground and said, "This is a defense, which caused the traces of this to appear, but what is he defending, what can make that guy use such a defensive means?" β
Chen Chen looked at the trace, wanted to go to the destroyed settlement, and found that although the ground was swept by some ground beam not far behind, Chen Chen still found in some clues left behind, there should be a lot of people standing in the position he was standing at this time, and there were many children, Chen Chen was very strange at this time, could it be that the defense was protecting these children.
"Your Royal Highness, Your Majesty," a banshee who was on guard here flew over and said to Chen Chen and Andariel.
Chen Chen asked, "Have you found survivors around here?"
"No, Your Highness, but strangely there are no corpses left here, and if someone had taken them away from here, we would have been able to come back and touch them, but we didn't find any corpses when we came, not even any signs of them being destroyed," the banshee reported.
"I have never heard of such a situation," Andariel said.
Chen Chen said: "Then the guy we met this time is very powerful, or the people here are not dead, but hiding somewhere." β
Just as Chen Chen was making a bold guess, a disciple of the Star Hall shouted, "There are people here who are still alive," after hearing the shout, Chen Chen and the others immediately ran over, and at this time, they saw countless faces below looking at the people above, and everyone had a strange look on their faces, which was a mixture of happiness and disbelief...
