Zaunte lurks silently in the waters of the river, which is filled with a lot of negative energy.

As an advanced form of the Black Knight, Styx Yoshino, although Zaande does not have the same excellent physical attack ability as the Black Knight Leader, he has achieved an amazing improvement in stealth, and it is for this reason that he has been able to survive in the dangerous Styx until now.

As a necromantic creature, it doesn't need to breathe, so it doesn't matter if it's submerged in water for a long time, the negative energy in the water and the aquatic algae unique to the abyss can also be used as its food - in fact, only demons and some monsters need to breathe in the entire abyss.

The Abyss is a very chaotic place, and the River Styx seemed to be slightly better under the rule of three powerful adults, but not long ago, after the sudden disappearance of those three adults, even this place began to become chaotic.

Turquoise tentacles silently reached out from behind it towards its neck, as if trying to wring Zunart's neck, which was completely unaware of it, under the armor.

At that moment, Zaonte pulled out the dagger between its ribs, turned around and cut the spherical algae creature with two bloodshot eyeballs in half, and casually tore off a small piece of plant fiber from the other person's body, stuffed it into his mouth and chewed to satisfy his hunger, then dived into the water again and quietly left the area that was about to be occupied by the scavenging monsters hovering in the sky, and found a new place to lurk.

As one of the few necromantic creatures with clear thinking and a passable IQ, Zuante certainly wasn't here in a daze.

The overlord of the nearby waters was a sixteen-legged corpse snail, the body of which had been buried deep under the bed of the River Styx. Sixteen tentacles thicker than a water tank and a bit like an octopus are used to hunt and meet enemies.

In the more than forty years since Zuante migrated to this neighborhood, he has not seen it in its own form. According to Zaiante's friend Barbalian, an Ancestral Demon with barbs and only one eye, the Sixteen-Legged Corpse Conch will only emerge from the riverbed once every hundred years on the day the moon in the sky begins to drip blood, and be baptized with the blood of the Demon Moon.

Of course, even if its body doesn't come out, it just depends on those sixteen brachiopods. It would be enough to deal with all but the three adults. Even the Great Demon wasn't necessarily its opponent, in fact, in the past forty years, Zunte had seen at most a sixteen-legged corpse snail use eight wrists and feet at a time.

Of course, Zunant didn't stay here to wait to see the body of the sixteen-legged corpse snail, after all, according to the calendar of the abyss. The next moon bleed is at least twenty years away.

It is waiting for an opportunity.

Yesterday, a surprisingly powerful being suddenly rushed into the River Styx. This generation of waters has been turned upside down. Directly exploded the twelve wrists and feet of the sixteen-legged corpse demon snail.

The battle between the two powerhouses had been fought for an hour, and now the entire body of water had fallen silent again, and the inferior creatures that had been scared away had regrouped.

Who won the hell? Zuante was curious. And it's more concerned about whether it's lucky enough to get a little out of it. You must know that when he was still a black warrior, it was because he accidentally found the scales of the Dark Dragon King that he successfully advanced to become a Styx Yihao, standing out from the countless black warriors and becoming an existence comparable to a high-ranking demon.

The long life gave Zunant a patience that ordinary people could not reach, and he slowly approached the location of the decisive battle between the two monsters at an undetectable speed, and at the same time did not forget to guard the surroundings, after all, the two veritable monsters were too big yesterday, and now there may be some guys around who have the same idea as him.

Suddenly, huge waves began to rise on the calm water. Before Zuante could run far, a huge figure emerged from the water.

Because there is no light source in the sky, even Zuante, who has dark vision, can't see the other party's appearance clearly for a while, and can only vaguely notice that the other party is like a huge sea snake, with a body more than 100 meters long and slender and full of power, and there are three pairs of wings like dragon wings on the surface of the water, and the head of the monster looks a bit like a lion with a fluffy and dense mane from the silhouette.

Zuante didn't know what the level of the monster was, but even in the face of the great demon, he could calmly slip away, but at this time, he couldn't have the slightest idea of escaping, which has proved that the other party is far superior to the ordinary great demon at least in terms of momentum.

Could it be that he is one of the three pillared demon gods who rule over the River Styx? Such a thought even popped into Zuant's heart.

The next moment, the silhouette of the monster vanished as if it were a real shadow, and only a human-like body poked out of the water.

Not only the body shape, but also the physical appearance of a human male.

"It's worthy of a sixteen-legged corpse demon snail, and it's not easy for me to deal with it." In his right hand, he held a basketball-sized orb that radiated like a pearl in the dark Styx, and with his left hand, he wiped his face haphazardly and wiped away the water of the Styx.

The light of the orb was very conspicuous in the whole abyss, and the man had no intention of hiding it, so he half-floated on the surface of the water and admired it for a while.

The River Styx, which used to be able to fight for your life and death for a thing casually, is surprisingly silent at this time. Even the three-eyed crows in the sky look like magnified ones, greedy and noisy scavengers by nature.

No matter what the creature was, it instinctively felt threatened in the man.

It seems that the most difficult fight between the two giants is that the man who suddenly appeared yesterday won.

At that moment, an eyed demon slipped from the sky, flapping its bat-like wings and hovering in the man's ear, muttering something softly.

"Hmph, what a stupid guy, want to do that kind of little action while I'm not with adults."

The man smiled freely, his face full of disdain and said in the abyssal language.

His body slowly protruded from the water, and as soon as the man reached out, a black hooded cloak appeared in his hand.

After covering his naked body with his cloak, he began to walk towards the shore: "It's fine. Let me take this opportunity to purge Timothy of all those who have different intentions! ”

The Eye Demon that had completed its mission flew in front of Asacher, and was then pinched and exploded by Asashiel with one hand, and the thick blood splattered in all directions, making the bloodthirsty demonic monsters around him ready to move.

Ignoring the inferior demons who looked like ants to him, Asacher shook the plasma in his hand. I saw that those dark red plasma automatically formed a magic array that connected to the other main material plane, and then a purple magic light appeared on the magic array, indicating that the magic array had been opened.

A fresh air completely different from the smell of sulfur in the abyss poured out of the magic circle, and Asacher didn't stay long, and walked briskly inside.

Wait until his terrifying aura disappears along with the magic array. Zaunte and the rest of the creatures around him jumped to the bottom of the River Styx. Prepare to share the magical corpse of the Sixteen-Legged Corpse Conch......

- Morag -

"It's a dance ......of demons," Nero frowned, as a member of the Sanctuary delegation who participated in the Great Magic Festival.

Unlike the other members of the Holy See who had entered the half-plane, he was strolling through the lively streets of Morag.

But the Light he believed in, and gave him strength, had reminded the pious young bishop more than once that there were dark creatures around him.

Just a walk down the street. You've already brushed shoulders with at least three dark creatures...... And judging by the reaction of the Light. It should still be a vampire with a higher level among dark creatures.

Is such an event really okay? Nero touched his right hand, which was wearing a leather glove. There are some doubts about this.

"What the hell is Mr. Edric up to...... Maybe it would be better to inform Her Majesty? Having succeeded Frey as the new head of the Templar Order of the Pure White Church, he muttered to himself with some uncertainty, only remembering that he had seen the unreliable appearance of the Holy Maiden in the Court of Whiteland. He hesitated a little: "Otherwise, it's better to discuss it with Teacher Frey......

Just as he was about to head to the half-plane, a commotion not far away caught his attention.

"How do you do business?"

A stout man dressed like a magic swordsman and mercenary in leather armor and carrying a two-handed sword at his back kicked over the stall of fried noodles in business, and shouted at the Pigs, who were cooks, "Who told you to put garlic in this food!" ”

Behind him, two men dressed similarly to him also echoed, and one of them even threw the carton of fried noodles in his hand on the ground and stepped on it a few times to vent his anger.

Those guys are vampires.

Almost as soon as he saw them, Nero recognized the men as they were.

And only vampires care if the food is amplified garlic......

"The garlic sauce enhances the flavor of the fried noodles and brings out the hidden flavor contained in the ingredients, which is an indispensable part of my fried noodles, so if you don't like it, you can not eat it......

The Pig's face was flushed, but considering that he couldn't beat the three people in front of him, he could only say this in the end.

Anyway, if the other party really starts to beat people, the golems set up around will be activated immediately, and the three troublemakers will be beaten up and sent to a temporary prison.

"Hmph, our brother is allergic to garlic, not to mention vomiting and diarrhea after eating, it will be life-threatening in serious cases, what do you say about this!" The man at the head also seemed to know that if he did it, he would only suffer the loss, so he didn't really do it, but just approached the Pigs with a commanding face and said.

“…… Why don't I give you the money back and give you a few more coupons? The personality of the Pigs was already a little cowardly, and when they saw that things seemed to have room for change, they immediately said with some weakness.

"Do you think we'll care about that kind of thing?"

The vampire man at the head sneered, then his eyes rolled and he pointed to the few Ai coins (Adric's universal token) that rolled out of the stall and said, "Give us those, and this matter will be clear!" ”

"No, no, no." The Pigs immediately shook their heads and refused: "This is given to me by Mr. Edric, only those who win the Big Stomach King competition can get it, I can't give it to you directly." ”

"What, you guy......"

The vampire man's eyes widened, as a radical who hid among the moderate vampires close to humans, he had developed an indelible sense of superiority over the years with humans. Except for the appearance of the Pigs, except for the nose and ears are a little bigger, and they look more honest, they are not much different from humans, and he is immediately furious when he sees that this human dares to disobey his will.

"I advise you to take it easy."

At this time, Nero finally spoke up: "It's up to others to eat the wrong thing, this is Morag, the territory of mankind, not Timothyen's kind of place, and it is not your turn to be powerful." ”

If Sivi was here, he would definitely sigh about this: as soon as he appeared on the stage, he was full of cynicism and hatred. He is worthy of being a knight of the Holy Temple. Sure enough, it's the material for making T.

"What did you say!" The vampire man's rage soared, revealing even his long canine teeth.

"Do you want to fight?" Nero was not only not afraid of the other party's monstrous anger, but had the spare time to help the Pigs tidy up the stalls: "I heard that Morag's management has been quite strict recently. If you want to be caught in jail, go ahead and do it. ”

“…… Hum. You're in luck today! Be careful not to touch me in the future! ”

The vampire man still didn't dare to make a move. just put aside a cruel sentence and left with two doglegs: "Let's go!" ”

Nero glanced at them and continued to tidy up the stalls for the Pigs.

Because of Nero's relationship, the crowd of onlookers also came to help. It didn't take long for the stall to be restored to its original state.

After receiving a box of chow mein and a voucher for a food item as a thank you gift, Nero said goodbye to the Pige stall owner and walked alone.

He walked more and more quickly, and his path became more and more deviant, and when he saw the alley, he delved into the alley, until he came into a narrow cul-de-sac.

He turned to the mouth of the alley and shouted to the alley with an expressionless face: "I know that you are there, come out!" ”

"That's right, you found out so quickly that we were following you."

At the mouth of the alley, the vampire man who was angry with Nero just now and his two doglegs slowly approached him with a cruel smile: "It's just too stupid, I actually plan to use the alley to get rid of us, if you run to the downtown area, we really can't do anything about you." ”

"It's not certain who is stupid."

Nero looked at the three of them with a fearless face (the three ghosts?). Walk.

"Boss, something is wrong...... one of the doglegs seemed to sense that something was wrong.

"Don't be afraid, he's just bluffing!"

The vampire man pulled out his sword with his backhand, and with the vampire's unusual physical ability, he stabbed straight towards Nero at an incredible speed!

Nero, on the other hand, made a foolish move in the eyes of the vampires - instead of drawing his short sword, he subconsciously stretched out his right hand to block the front.

Idiot! My sword will cut your hand in half along with your body! The vampire man licked his lips and shouted excitedly in his heart.

As the number one student of the Holy Silver Sword Ji Frei, would Nero really make such a low-level mistake? The answer, of course, is no.

The opponent's long sword seemed to have slashed into an iron wall, and after making a sharp sound, it was forcibly blocked by Nero's right hand.

And after the leather glove was cut off, Nero's right hand also revealed its original appearance...... The combination of the bright red leather skin and the dark blue crystal-like substance contained the right wrist that was enough to make a person a half-spirit-level divine magic and plague power, unique in the entire world.

Before the vampire man could be surprised, Nero flipped over the blade of his sword and easily snatched the two-handed sword from his opponent's hand.

"This sword ......" he narrowed his eyes and looked at the ornate sword, "the legendary holy sword Rolandur?" However, the magic aura on it is not pure, it is just a fake with no appearance. ”

The vampire man, who had been easily snatched of his weapon, took two steps back in disbelief, wondering if he felt that he had been insulted by Nero, and he yelled hysterically at his two henchmen with red eyes, "What are you still watching? Come along with me! It's just one human, it's just one human!! ”

The two henchmen also woke up from a dream, drew their long swords, and attacked Nero together.

With his excellent sword skills, Nero was even able to hit the vampire man's head with the blade of his sword, but when his eyes made contact with the weapons in the hands of the two henchmen, Nero couldn't help but let out a soft 'huh'.

They also had a copy of the Holy Sword Rolandur.

What the hell is going on these days, even the vampires have started to switch to the Holy Sword?

Seeing that the physical attack could not reach Nero, those vampires immediately opened their minds and wanted to switch to a magic attack, but before that, they were suddenly attacked by Nero's ghost hand, and they were completely unconscious.

After searching the half-plane tickets and a few money bags from the three of them, Nero found nothing else.

It seems that these vampires are still very cautious, and they don't even bring anything that might reveal their identity.

"Something is wrong." Looking at the three identical forgeries of the Holy Sword on the ground, Nero suddenly remembered that the vampires he had encountered before seemed to be carrying long swords...... Although he didn't care at first, it was really strange to think about it now, plus how could the four waves of vampires he encountered this time all use swords? You must know that the vampires of the Dao have always preferred to be a mage to a swordsman, and even if they use a sword, their choice is an elegant stabbing sword or a one-handed sword, when did the two-handed long sword become popular?

Vaguely, Nero felt as if he had stumbled upon a slice of some plot that the vampires were working on.

"Sure enough, it's better to inform Mr. Edric directly." (To be continued......)
