Section 29 Poisonous wolves
The scene was quickly cleaned up, and the armored truck roared again, charging into the desert with the human captives and the remaining demons. Behind the thick smoke and dust, the travelers in the truck stared blankly behind them. They are already in despair, and what awaits them will be a worse end than death.
At the front of the line, on a particularly large truck, the newly installed seats exuded a hideous hideousness, a large seat in the style of a demonic man resembling a throne of steel, with sharp spikes stretching out from the towering backrest. Chen Yan sat on the chair accompanied by Jace. Lazily holding his chin. Below him were three or four scantily clad girls. Curled up at his feet like a Persian cat. Jace stood right behind him, like a frozen statue.
"I don't want to be your master, I'm just your collaborator." After Chen Yan corrected Jace for the fifth time, he said helplessly.
"I'm just trying to remind myself how to get it right." Jace replied. "Cook didn't understand this, so he died, and the travelers didn't understand it either, so they had to be punished. It's just me...... If you want to achieve your ideals, it's best not to forget this at all times. Power needs strength, and when I don't have strength, I have to learn to get used to it. ”
"Heh......" Chen Yan laughed. Reached out and touched the girl's silky hair. "You're an interesting demon. Has anyone told you? ”
"Nope." Jace replied. "Demonic people are all creatures who worship violence, we don't like to think too complicatedly, if violence can get something, what do we have to use our brains for?"
"But you're different from them."
"That's because I lack violence, at least enough violence." Jace looked down. "If I had the strength of yours, then I would have an easy life."
"Aren't you trying to get it?" Chen Yan said with a smile and took the wine glass from the other girl. "That devil's lair, there must be something you want, right?"
"Of course." Jestan said in vain. "Enough power for me to be a leader. But before I can do that, I need to face the current leader. Our patriarch. ”
"How many ethnic groups do you have?" Chen Yan asked.
"Can't count." Jace replied. "My tribe is called Haroka, and it is the smallest of them. The population is about 3,000 people. So I'm afraid I won't be able to provide you with the information you want. If you need more information about the demonic people, I'm afraid you can only do it if you go to a larger group. ”
The demonic people are a large population, their number is no less than that of humans, and they also have a huge civilization system and social structure. Chen Yan had known this from the common sense of the demon hunters. And demonizing people is a very important part of his plan. It can provide the knowledge and documentation he needs.
I...... Will definitely be able to go back.
Chen Yan raised his head and drank the wine.
The convoy traveled through the desert, going through several alternating suns and moons, and finally came to an outpost. It's a very different place from human style. There are no neat masonry buildings, but huge steel creations everywhere. Flames and steam gushed through the machines, and next to them were busy demonic people. At the gate of the outpost, there were many steel horses and spikes, and several burly demonized people patrolled back and forth with machine crossbows.
Seeing the approaching convoy, they had a bad look on their faces that refused to be welcome. However, when he found out that the owner of the convoy was Jace, he immediately let his guard down.
"It's Jace...... Is it back so soon? ”
"I heard you're going after those troublemakers. Looks like a good harvest. However, the attrition is quite serious, and be careful that your patriarch will be angry. ”
Several demonic guards shouted. Jace just laughed and tossed a few bottles of wine. "Get out of here, I'm here to resupply. Don't make a mess of Lao Tzu! ”
"Roar, Jace is talking loudly! See? Brothers, that cowardly Jace dared to yell at us! Oh my God, the demon god is above, could it be that he encountered some monster on this hunt, or was he hit by something that broke his head? ”
A burly guard shouted as if he had discovered a new world, pointing his crossbow at Jace. "Come down, coward, and kneel down for me as you used to be, and lick my boots. I promise not to kill you. ”
"Hahahaha...... Jace is going to learn to bark again......" The guards around him grinned and looked like they were looking hilarious.
Unfortunately, this time they were waiting for not Jace's humility, but a crossbow bolt coming at them.
With a muffled thud, the bolt entered the guard's eye socket with great force, and nailed him to the ground. The tail feathers of the crossbow bolt buzzed, and the cross slot on the arrow sank deep into the guard's face, slicing his head into four pieces.
The guard didn't move, and the rest of the guards were shocked. Qiqi aimed his crossbow at Jace.
"You're crazy!"
"Jace, do you know what you're doing?"
"This is not the place for you to go wild!"
There was a dense roar of machines on Jace's convoy, and more than a dozen crossbow guns stretched out. Only then did the guards realize that something was wrong, and Jace in front of him was probably no longer a target to bully.
"I just taught him how to learn to change." On the truck, Jace pulled out a cigar and put it in his mouth and lit it. The scar on his face trembled slightly, and he was red and shiny. "It seems that he did not pass."
"What about you? Will you pass? ”
"Bastard Jace!" The guards cursed, but obediently lowered their weapons.
Jace's clan is small, but it's famous. At least not something that their outpost can contend with. In the past, they all knew that Jace was isolated, so they dared to bully him, but now that Jace has become the leader of this demonic team, who would dare to trouble him? , not to mention that demonized people are so brave and ruthless, and it is too common for people to die. Jace only had to pay a little compensation and nothing.
Sure enough, Jace ended the affair with only a small bag of nakah (demonic currency), resupplyed, and left.
The convoy rumbled, looking at the moving outpost, Chen Yan said to Jace. "It seems that you didn't have a lot of popularity in the past."
"If you want to grow safely in a wolf den, you must avoid the attention of strong wolves." Jace pointed to his head, a sinister smile.
"But now, I feel like I've had enough."
"If forbearance has given me a chance, then I absolutely ...... Absolute...... Won't lose it. ”
