Due to securing the territory around Demon King City, the system has undergone a minor update, and for several days I have been busy getting familiar with the various new features added to the system, as well as adding new unlocked buildings to the city.

The stock of resources, which was originally quite considerable, was cleared in one go, and when he came back to his senses, the soul resources used to build the exclusive building of the undead had been emptied.

So while waiting for the resources to return, the long-idle exploration mission finally got a chance to open again.

The task of staying behind has been assigned to Diana, and Cyno and I will be leaving Demon King City in the next few days to raid the areas of the forest that are not yet under my jurisdiction.

Actually, the original plan was to take Diana with me, but considering Leonida's existence, I had to leave a personal guard to sit in the base camp, even if Leonida was quite harmless on the outside and inside.

However, the members of this exploration team also have a new partner, thanks to the upgrade of the cemetery, and the combat arms under my command are no longer only skeletons, but also have a new corpse eater who makes an elongated vomiting sound from time to time, and looks like a corpse in a Western movie.

The difference between a corpse eater and a normal corpse should be mentioned here.

Walking corpses, miscellaneous fish, no IQ and no special abilities, only rely on instinct to act, the degree is extremely slow, and ordinary people who are generally untrained can easily kill it.

Ghoul Eater, high-level cannon fodder, has low intelligence so he can be commanded, ** tough and powerful, although it is not like skeletons that can still be reorganized after being scattered, but can repair the damage they have suffered by devouring corpses, according to the information provided by Cyno, the combat power of a ghoul is equivalent to a militia team of four people.

Lord Demon, we're going to cross the border line next. Cyno's voice rang in my ears, and I took my thoughts out of my mind.

Perhaps because the surrounding forces have been wiped out by the dark elves, they have not encountered any battles along the way, and the exploration team of ten people has not been reduced so far.

With the skeleton that can be reassembled as the minesweeper, Cyno and I in the center, and the formation behind the corpse eater hall continues to move forward, of course, the reason why the corpse eater is sent to the back is definitely not because it smells too disgusting, and it is too shallow to stand it, which is very important, so it must be specially explained.

You, go too far ahead, go back! I turned my head to glare at some zombie who was walking too fast.

Disgusting! The corpse eater scratched his scalp, looked a little depressed, and retreated back in despair.

Vomiting, evil~~~ The second corpse eater on the side patted the lost corpse eater on the shoulder, seemingly comforting.

Zombie One nodded, as if cheered up by being comforted, and finally the two Zombies clasped their hands, and the friendship of the undead was born.

You guys have bad breath, go back and brush my teeth a few more times!

Vomit...... The corpse eater responded, and covered his mouth with his hand.

Turning my attention away from the corpse eaters, I surveyed my surroundings instead, and as the team progressed, the atmosphere of the forest changed.

How so? If the previous trip was to enjoy the natural phytoncide hike, now the forest feels like the chosen place for the summer test of courage, and it is inexplicable.

Raising his head and looking up, the dense branches and foliage covered most of the sunlight, obviously it was still daylight, and the light was abundant, but the path ahead gave people a depressing feeling that the bottom of their hearts was blocked by something.

Lord Demon, please follow me next. Cyno took a few steps closer to my position, but didn't draw his greatsword, seemingly only a minimal precaution.

I was about to nod my head in thanks, but Cyno came to me with all his body.

I said Cyno, what are you doing now? Resisting the discomfort of being held up by the hard heavy armor, I regret that my strength is simply not enough to push Cyno away.

Protect your safety, Lord Demon. Cyno's answer was meticulous, but contrary to what appeared on the surface, her behavior was clearly bothering me.

You're going to be attacked like this for a while, and you're going to be too late to react, right? Cyno's left hand was wrapped in its entirety, and the armor on her elbow hurt my back, and I felt like I was bleeding even though I hadn't touched the enemy yet.

The current posture is the perfect formation to defend against the enemy, and when you encounter an attack, you can push your subordinates in front of you as your shield with minimal movement. Cyno still said it with a look of care.

That's right, but I just think it's painful for me. It's not that I'm saying that the feeling of being held against the metal all the time really hurts, but fortunately, Cyno's armor doesn't have decorative spikes on it, so I'm glad I wasn't hurt by it.

Cyno frowned and pondered, and after about a few dozen seconds, he reluctantly nodded: "Then as a compromise, please take this alternative shield."

What?

Before I could understand what she meant, Cyno pulled his head off his neck and thrust it into my arms.

If you are in danger, throw it out with all your might. The head I was holding in my arms said.

I'm going to throw you out right now. I wrapped my arm around Cyno's skull, my other hand clenched into a fist, and I aimed the knot of my middle finger at the temple of Cyno's skull.

Ahh......hhh Demon King's ...... Punish...... Ahh......hhh Cyno had a suspicious panting **, and even the body that was walking well in front of him also became an inner figure-eight walk, one hand wrapped around his chest, and the other hand spread out his five fingers and stretched out to the sky for some reason.

Just looking at her face, she is clearly an out-and-out beauty, but the only thing is that she is too regretful in her personality, and because of this, I can't have any physical desire for Cyno, even if she takes the initiative.

Because of Cyno's interruption in the middle of the way, this forest has reduced my depression a lot, and I think the exploration team has almost stepped into the opponent's circle of influence at this time, and all I have to do now is to keep moving forward and wait for the other party to take the initiative to send me to the door.

Glancing at the system's optional quests, I licked my upper lip and prayed that the next show would be as I expected.

This time the enemy is not as easy to communicate with as the dark elves, or it is questionable whether the other party has an IQ or not.

As a member of the arthropods, the eight-legged monster has always appeared as a predator.
