85 Traces of the Devil

"It's not nonsense! How could a demon appear in the Forest of Falling Springs! Uncle Tyre slapped him in the face in annoyance.

As a place blessed by the Holy Light, the Forest of Falling Springs may be infested with fierce beasts, but the monsters contaminated with the breath of the abyss have never appeared, and this kind of words, Tyre, who has lived here for decades, will never believe it.

"I'm not talking nonsense! Darcy won't lie to me! He saw it with his own eyes! Uncle Brune: Surely they have been eaten by the demons! Poole was slapped by Tyre and screamed, but he still said stubbornly.

Tyre didn't say a word, just slapped him.

Agni and Layla glanced at each other, seeing the unease in each other's hearts. Agni stopped Tyre's movements, then pulled Poole over and asked, "Poole, what kind of demon did your friend see?" Can you tell us about it? ”

Poole broke away from Uncle Tyre's beating, turned back to him and grimaced, and then excitedly said to Agni, "I knew your lord would believe me, I don't know what the demon looks like, but I can call Darcy over!" Let him tell the adults himself! ”

At Agni's answer, Poole ran out of the door to find his friend.

Agni looked back at Layla and Amelia, and Layla now looked confused and said, "I don't know what happened to the Feather Spring...... I still can't believe that there are demons in the land of the Holy Light......"

Amelia, on the other hand, was in an even worse situation, sitting on the bench with her head bowed, seemingly shaking.

"Amelia, don't be afraid, it's not a big deal." Agni said, touching her head.

Amelia smiled reluctantly, her face still not very good.

The village was small, and soon Poole returned with his friend Darcy, an ordinary country boy dressed in homespun clothes and hair disheveled like a bird's nest. Seeing the fully armed fire, there was some fear and envy in his eyes, and he stood beside Poole with fear.

"Your name is Darcy, isn't you?" Agni smiled kindly and asked.

Darcy nodded hurriedly.

Agni continued, "Is it true that Poole said you saw the Abyss Demon? ”

"Yes...... Yes! My lord! I'm not lying! I saw it with my own eyes! Darcy rubbed the corner of his clothes nervously.

"Don't be nervous." Agni said, pulling out a silver sora, "Darcy, tell me everything you see and hear, don't let go of the details - and this is yours!" ”

Darcy's eyes lit up as he looked at the gleaming silver coin, and he hurriedly began to tell his story.

The thing is actually very simple, most boys at this age like to build their own secret bases, and Darcy is no exception. His secret base was built on a cliff, and after doing the few things his family had arranged for each day, Darcy would climb the cliff and spend his afternoons alone in his secret base.

It was the same on this day, except that he stayed on the cliff and fell asleep accidentally. When he woke up, there was only the last ray of sunlight left in the sky, and it wasn't long before it was getting dark. If he went home so late, it was estimated that he would inevitably be beaten, and he hurriedly packed his things and prepared to climb down the cliff, but he didn't expect to hear a strange sound from under the cliff.

At first, he thought it was a beast, so he quickly bent down and listened secretly, trying to discern what kind of beast it was. I didn't expect to listen to it for a while, but it was like a language, and there were several different individuals talking to each other in that language.

Darcy quietly poked his head out to see who would appear here, but what appeared in his eyes was not a human, but a group of demons with strange shapes like the legend!

"Some of them have sharp teeth, some have red eyes, some have horns on their heads, and each of them has the legendary black mist on their bodies! Absolutely, absolutely demonic! Darcy seemed to be afraid that the fire would not believe him, and repeatedly emphasized.

"By the way, there's a special demon!" Darcy suddenly clapped his hands as if he thought of something, "That's a tall, skinny, mouthless red demon!" He looks very special, the left corner seems to have been burned by the heat, and it has melted into a ball like wax! ”

"The horn-burned...... Red Devil? Agni said with some confusion.

"That's right! He looked the most special, I remember it very well! And it seems that the status is also the highest! Darcy nodded affirmatively.

Agni asked for a few more details, then handed him the silver sola, and Darcy walked away happily with the coin.

"I don't think he's like a liar, he can describe it in such detail, it's not something that such a big kid can make up." Agni turned back and said to Layla.

"That means ......" Layla was in a very bad mood, the news that the Abyss Demon was desecrating the Hallow Land, and that was really terrible.

"I'm afraid we're really going to have to face the Abyss Demons......," Blaze sighed, "though, according to Darcy, there shouldn't be a lot of them. ”

"If there were a lot of them, I'm afraid that the Featherfall Spring would have been destroyed long ago." Layla said, "There is absolutely no way to have a large number of Abyssal Demons in the Land of Holy Light, and the stronger the power of the Abyss, the greater the repulsion. ”

"So, what now, do you still want to follow me to the Featherfall Spring?" Agni asked. In fact, according to his thoughts, if there is danger, it is better for Layla and Amelia to stay in Asit Village for the time being, and their strength may be difficult to fight against powerful demons.

"Of course, I'm going!" Layla said firmly, "I don't have to run into a demon yet, how can I back down." What's more, as long as I get close to the Fountain of Featherfall, I can use the powerful power of holy light to restrain these demons from the abyss, don't worry about me. ”

Agni nodded, looked at Amelia again, and said, "Amelia, why don't you stay here?" ”

Amelia looked strange, kept her head down, not knowing what she was thinking, and when she heard Agni call her name, she trembled and looked up at Agni. Amelia didn't look very good, her face was a little pale, and her body was still trembling slightly.

"Amelia, what's wrong with you?" Seeing her like this, Agni was a little worried, "Then you can rest at Uncle Tyre's house and wait for us to come back, right?" ”

Amelia's eyes seemed to be out of focus, and she was dazed for a moment before she came back to her senses, and when she understood the meaning of the fire, she shook her head unexpectedly, "No...... Brother Agni, I want to go with you! ”

"But...... Your state ......" Agni was still a little worried.

Amelia smiled reluctantly and shook her head, "It's okay, Brother Agni, it's a big deal anyway, it's reincarnation......"

Despite what she said, Agni also knew that reincarnation was not something that could be pleasant, and that he had experienced so many near-death experiences that each time he would have a strong sense of frustration and despair, which would even affect his restraint. Exposing your phantom limbs to that unknown space is not a good experience in any way.

But since Amelia said so, it wasn't a bad thing to act together.

"Then let's go together, but you have to watch your own safety, and I will protect you." Agni said with relief.

Now that the decision has been made, the three of them will no longer waste time, and they are ready to go now.

The road to the Feather Fall Spring had been blocked by the village elders, and several young men had set up a defensive line and a watchtower outside the village, and they would not let people out at will without the consent of the elders. Therefore, before they can leave, they need to accompany Tyre to the elders to obtain permission.

After seeing the elders, they did not embarrass the fire of the warriors, and after the dissuasion failed, they allowed them to leave the village.

Leaving the village of Asit, the group entered the depths of the Forest of Falling Springs. Having asked where Darcy's secret base was located, they were going to go over there and have a look, maybe they could get more information about the Abyss Demon.

The cliff and the mountain road were not very far, and it didn't take long to reach the destination.

It has been a few days since the incident, and naturally there will be no trace on the road, and people who want to come to the village have also searched in this vicinity, but they have not heard of any findings.

However, there is a genuine priest in the team of Agni, and the priest is an expert in dealing with the abyss demon.

"True Sight"

Layla's eyes were filled with holy light, and her pupils turned white, which looked a little scary, but there was no better spell to probe the abyss. Under this spell, Layla can see the abyssal aura that is difficult to detect with the naked eye.

"Fire, Amelia, here!" After searching for a while, Layla suddenly exclaimed, as if she had discovered something.

Agni and Amelia hurried over.

"Miss Layla, did you find anything?" Agni asked.

Layla nodded with a disdainful look on her face, and then began to cast spells.

"No Hide"

This spell works somewhat similarly to Vision, but only works in a fixed location for a short period of time.

Immediately, Agni found that the surroundings were full of traces from the abyss!

Footprints of different shapes appeared on the ground nearby, emitting a black mist unique to the abyss, and it was obvious that a demon team had indeed passed here! Darcy really wasn't talking nonsense!

"Probably...... There are about ten demons, which is not a lot of them. Agni discerned, then said.

"The strength doesn't look too high, maybe at lv12 to lv14." Layla has the Eye of Truth, and she can see more than Fire.

Agni nodded, feeling a little relieved in his heart, this level of demon, he was enough to suppress.

"Can you see where they're heading?" Agni asked.

Layla looked around for a while, her face was a little solemn, and said, "Their goal is really the Fountain of Featherfall, I don't know what they want to do......"

Agni sighed, sure enough, this trial was not so simple, UU read the book .nt He said, "Let's move on, be careful around us, don't run headlong into the demon group." ”

Layla nodded, and didn't put away her Eye of Truth, preparing to move forward like this, lest she accidentally be ambushed by the demon.

"Amelia? Amelia? What are you looking at? Agni turned around and saw Amelia staring at a footprint in a daze, and couldn't help but exclaim.

There was something special about that footprint, it looked like there were only two toes, and in the black mist, there were some fiery red colors, as if there were flames. Amelia, on the other hand, lost her mind, staring at the strange footprint.

"Yes...... It's him...... It's him ......" Amelia muttered to herself, her eyes shivering and blank.

Agni Fire hurriedly stepped forward to hold her shoulder, and then said, "Who is it?" ”

"It's the demon that killed me and inflicted soul damage on me...... That red faceling! Amelia slowly crouched down weakly, holding her head, as if recalling the terrible scene at that time.

Agni and Rala looked at each other.
