November 27th, winter dusk.

When Bright, who had been tired outside for a long day, heard the news and hurried back to the temporary camp, he heard the sound of Jin Ge Tie from a distance, and when he got closer, he found that the transcendents of the joint investigation team were all gathered on the side, helplessly watching a fierce battle in the open field, which was as fast as the wind and red and black.

Bright didn't act rashly, but immediately found You Jian, who was sitting on a chair and eating melon seeds, and asked, "Brother You, what's going on?" ”

"Huh?" You Jian spit out the melon seed shell and said, "Isn't this obvious? Beauty and the Beast. ”

Bright couldn't help but laugh and asked, "So why did Apricot fight with Ursa?" ”

Fighting in the open space of the camp were none other than the two four-turn powerhouses of the Martial Spirit Palace, Sakura Kyoko and Ursa of the Winter Castle, although they seemed to have restrained the power of their attacks and did not splash on the others, the ground where they were fighting was simply three feet high - they were about to make a huge crater!

It just so happened that both of them were strong melee type transcendents, and as soon as they fought, countless sparks erupted from the misalignment of spear blades and fists, and the occasional leaking wind energy ploughed out the cracks in the soil, and the transcendents had to hide far away if they wanted to watch.

You Jian hooked his fingers back, took the iced black tea handed over by Chen Liao with a dark face, and said while drinking: "There is a problem with the logistics of the Martial Spirit Palace. ”

"What's the problem?" Bright was slightly stunned: "Is Russia a picky eater?" ”

"It's not really, it's just that the Wuhun Hall underestimated the Russian man's need for alcohol - the alcohol provided by the Wuhun Hall is too low." You Jian said: "What he needs is the kind of high-count wine that burns his brain when he drinks it." And the alcohol content sent by the Wuhun Hall is not even comparable to medical alcohol, and he can't get drunk at all. ”

The Sakura people have always been fond of sake, shochu and beer, and the soju has the highest degree of soju, but at most it is 45 degrees - compared to Spirytus (the eaux-de-vie of life, commonly known as the drink above 96 degrees) that Ursa drinks all day long, he is simply a younger brother.

It is estimated that Wintercastle did not explain the need for alcohol to the Spirit Hall - who would have thought that they would have to spend two days and two nights in the Missile Mountains.

The supplies that the Wuhun Hall quickly sent over were already quite thorough, as could be seen from the melon seeds in Youjian's hands—but how would they know that someone would drink the water of life when they were on a mission.

"But he didn't drink, why did he fight with Apricot?" Bright continued.

"He didn't drink anything, of course he went to the person in charge of the Martial Spirit Palace. The little sister didn't gain anything today, and she was also on fire, and they started fighting after chatting for a while. You Jian shook his head: "It's winter, why is it still so angry......

Bright nodded slightly, didn't ask again, but asked the watchman for a bottle of water and stood aside to rest. You Jian was a little surprised: "You don't want to stop them?" ”

"Why block? They need to fight. Bright said: "I can't find the Demon King today, as the person in charge of the Wuhun Palace, the pressure on Apricot is the greatest; Ursa was resentful, and he was not able to suppress it with wine, and he could not find the demon king for revenge...... It's not good for them to hold back in their hearts, and now it's better to have a fight. ”

"And they are also very restrained, rarely using strong killing superpowers...... In that case, why should I stop them? Brother You, didn't you see this, that's why you're watching from the side? ”

You Jian snorted: "I just want to watch a play." ”

"Brother You, you are also a cold-hearted person." Bright glanced at the battle in the arena: "They seem to be tired too...... I'll give them a reason for an armistice. ”

As he spoke, Bright flashed into the battlefield, rushed into the gap between the two of them, drew his sword to block Sakura Kyoko's big gun, and held down Ursa's thunder fist with his left hand, stopping the two of them in an instant!

"For God's sake, stop." Bright said, "It would be a pity if the Demon King appeared and you didn't have the strength to fight." ”

The two who wanted to stop immediately got off the donkey down the slope, and Sakura Kyoko scolded: "For the sake of the handsome guy, let go of your bear this time, next time I will taste what it is like to simmer a bear paw!" ”

Ursa glared at her, and suddenly laughed: "A warrior will not fight with a little girl under 1.5 meters." ”

"What a meter five!" Kyoko Sakura jumped up in anger, stood on tiptoe and shouted, "I'm obviously -"

"Alright, alright." Bright comforted them and said, "Both, I know you're in a bad mood because you've made no progress, but after venting, it's time to do your duty as the person in charge. Everybody's watching you. ”

The two fell silent, and at this time Bright clapped his hands and said loudly: "Everyone, the search has been hard tonight, it's time to change shifts, it's time to rest!" ”

The transcendents who were watching saw that there was no drama to watch, and they also went back to the barracks to eat and rest. Bright looked at Ursa and smiled, "I still have a bottle of whiskey over there, I'll send it to you later?" ”

Ursa glanced at him, was silent for a moment, hiccuped, and said, "Would you like to have a few drinks with me, brother?" ”

"I don't have to, I want to be awake while I'm on a mission." "I'm not as good as you are in Ursa," said Bright, "and if I did, I would have gone mad - I had nothing to gain today, and I felt bad." ”

Hearing this, the two of them showed a trace of embarrassment, and at this time, Dai Ze, who was also watching the play on the side, came over and asked, "Mr. Leopot, does the watcher have more accurate information about the Demon King?" ”

Bright smiled bitterly: "Not yet." Captain Zack's side has not yet found the Demon King's followers who caused the source of the trouble, and there is no way to prophesy...... But the Demon King should still be in the mountains. ”

Kyoko Sakura was very frustrated: "But the day has passed, and if she rushes with all her might, she may have made it to Toyama Prefecture......"

"It doesn't matter, she's only one person." "We represent the will of the whole world, and we will surely defeat the evil demon king...... And the surrounding cities are already ready to deploy, right? There's no way she's going to get out. ”

"Of course." Kyoko Sakura immediately said: "All the residents of the surrounding cities know that there are two extremely dangerous Genkoku men and women who are on the run, and the police forces in the and Chubu regions have all been mobilized, and they will definitely be discovered once they appear in the city." ”

"That's good...... What about Cader? Bright asked.

"He asked to search alone and never came back," Dazzle said. ”

"Everyone is working hard to catch the Demon King...... "Bright sighed, suddenly hammered his palm, and said loudly: "Okay, I'm going to search all night tonight!" ”

Akura Kyoko was slightly stunned, and then slammed the big gun: "I'm going to search all night!" ”

The search plan they originally formulated was to spread personnel to search during the day, be on duty at night, and the six transcendents would sit in the camp to support at any time - not that they were unwilling to work overtime, but that the search efficiency was too low at night, the light was too weak, and the drone was almost completely ineffective.

"If you don't sleep well, it may affect your growth." Bbright smiled, and Kyoko Sakura's expression changed slightly, but she still gritted her teeth and made up her mind to search all night.

Ursa suddenly said: "I'll search too, and if you don't have any alcohol, then move around." ”

Seeing this, Dai Ze had no choice but to follow the trend of +1 and join the team of exploding liver searches. After swallowing the melon seeds, you clapped her hands, stood up and said, "Then I will shoulder the most important task - to sit in the camp. ”

"There's Brother Laoyou." Bright looked around and said earnestly, "Good will triumph over evil, good luck to you." Then I'll continue the search. ”

Watching Bright throw the water bottle into the makeshift trash can and rally the watchmen out of the camp with their heads up, Dazzle snorted softly, "Hipocrisia......"

Kyoko Sakura immediately glared at Dai Ze and said, "What did you say?" ”

Dai Ze knew that Sakura Kyoko could actually speak Portuguese, so he was silent for a while. Kyoko Sakura snorted, looked at the direction Bright left, and couldn't help but sigh: "Why isn't he Sakura......"

"He should be Russian, cold and strong wine can make such a warrior." Ursa took a full sip of the newly arrived whiskey, and the anger on his face narrowed slightly, and said, "I like this blonde boy. ”

You Jian, who was going to eat in the dining area, suddenly turned around and asked Chen Liao: "What do you think of that kid from Bright?" ”

"Handsome, kind, hot-blooded, powerful, with a strong personality." Chen Liao said without thinking: "For the Federation, he may be more important than Angel Zack. ”

You Jian shrugged his shoulders and muttered, "It seems that only me and him have not fallen......"

……

On the other hand, after leaving the camp for some distance, Bright said to the watchmen: "I will leave for a while to examine a small matter, and you will patrol according to the established route, and do not reveal my situation." ”

"No problem, Bright!"

"Go ahead, I've heard that Sakura's bubble bath is good......"

“OK。”

Even if Bright didn't give any reason, the watchmen followed his orders without thinking.

After smiling goodbye to them, Bright walked under a hidden tree, looked at the sunset and the snow, and whispered, "Detect Evil, Max." ”

He snorted, covered the blood from his nose with the prepared tissue, shook his head, and whispered, "Sure enough, ......"

Throwing away the tissues, Bright hid his tracks, covered himself in snow through the forest, and moved quickly north.

Blood-stained tissues fall on the leaves of withered yellow grass, giving off an enticing rust scent that attracts long-awaited hunters.

……

……

It's here.

When Ren Suo and Qiao Muyi overcame all obstacles, climbed over several mountains in the dark, and saw the mountain hut with warm lights, both of them were very calm.

didn't encounter any battles, and didn't even see anyone along the way, and took time to eat fried chicken on the way, the two of them were like dating, holding hands and going on an outing, and finally seeing who would be so lucky to be Qiao Muyi's clue, it was up to someone to kill to liven up the atmosphere.

The mountain hut is a gassho hut with an 'A' shaped roof like those in Shirakawa-go, which has been dyed white with snow – the further north you go, the heavier the snow.

Ren Suo couldn't help but say: "It seems that the heavy snow of the missile is coming early this year, and there may be snow scenes to see in early December...... Tsk, we weren't lucky enough. ”

"It's not good enough, it's already good." Qiao Muyi responded with a smile, and then strode towards the hut. At this time, Ren Suo remembered something, grabbed her, strode up as himself, and kicked open the wooden door!

At the moment when the wooden door broke, a bloody shadow burst out from inside, attacking Ren Suo like a sharp arrow!

Qiao Muyi, who had been prepared, slapped him and grabbed the back of the person's neck, and the person instantly collapsed on the ground, unable to move - although Qiao Muyi also used a "finger lock" with armor-piercing and suppression effects, it was so powerful that it was like castrating the other party.

However, Qiao Muyi frowned at this time and squinted at Ren Suo.

"Did you know he was going to pounce? That's why you stopped me and went to open the door yourself? ”

Doesn't it say that love brains can make people demented? Ren Suo muttered secretly, and then said calmly: "Well...... Isn't it common sense not to let your girlfriend get into danger? ”

"It's not." Qiao Muyi said: "It is common sense for the strong to protect the weak. ”

Ren Suo couldn't refute - not to mention that Qiao Muyi's spells were far more powerful than conventional, even if the two of them didn't use spells, if Qiao Muyi was ferocious, she could easily press him on the bed with her physical strength alone, and he couldn't resist.

"Not next time."

Qiao Muyi admonished, and lowered his head to look at tonight's loot.

The strange man who was pinched by the back of her neck kept his head down and looked at the ground, probably because he couldn't understand the Mandarin they spoke, otherwise he would probably be attracted by their dog food conversation.

"Don't play dead." Qiao Muyi changed to Japanese and asked, "I have something to ask you." ”

"Who are you? Why did you break into my house? The strange man kept his head down and looked at the ground, as if he was a little hunchbacked, and his long hair looked greasy unkempt, but there was no fear in his voice, but there was an indescribable calmness and confidence.

"Look at me!" Qiao Muyi said sharply, don't talk about strange men, even Ren Suo was startled - you are so serious and speak so majestic?

Wait, the strength is stronger than me, the speech is more majestic than me, maybe even more money than me......

Ay? So I'm a little white face?

Just as Ren Suo discovered a wonderful truth, the strange man slowly raised his head, revealing a haggard, bearded middle-aged appearance.

Ren Suo and Qiao Muyi almost instantly noticed his eyes full of spirit, and the naked eye could see that the fighting spirit seemed to be burning, which was not covered by his ordinary and sloppy appearance, but became more and more pure and shining.

Ren Suo has seen it once in the game, but seeing this kind of look in reality still gives Ren Suo a big shock - what kind of person can make this kind of ordinary person who has been at the bottom of society for a long time, has no hope in life, and has to get by with such a look?

No greed, no desire, only endless steadfastness and piety!

The long-haired man glanced at Qiao Muyi and narrowed his eyes slightly: "You ......"

"Look at me! You remember me, right? Qiao Muyi asked coldly.

"Yes...... It's you!? The long-haired man's voice suddenly rose high, the joy was beyond words, and even shed tears of joy, if it wasn't for Qiao Muyi's pinching of the back of his neck, maybe he would have knelt down and licked Qiao Muyi's shoes on the spot: "His Royal Highness the Demon King, you actually came here in person!?" ”

Qiao Muyi thought to himself: Sure enough, according to the guidance of the "Detective's Eye", he is the Demon King believer who has a great connection with the source of the disaster on the Gravel Flatland, although I don't know how he was bewitched, but the image of the Demon King that he remembers in his heart is indeed me!

When the people of the watchman prophesied through the living demon king believers, the demon king believers remembered my impressions, and naturally prophesied to me!

And they weren't lying—in their hearts, the Demon King was indeed me.

"Tell me all the tasks I gave you." Qiao Muyi asked.

The long-haired man was so excited that he kept taking deep breaths, tried his best to sit upright, looked at Qiao Muyi with fanatical eyes, and said, "Kill." ”

"What else?"

"Nope." The long-haired man lowered his head slightly at this time and said, "His Royal Highness the Demon King, I have always faithfully carried out your orders, hidden in the tourist scenic spots, and killed a total of one hundred and thirty-nine travelers as a staff member, neither being discovered by the Martial Spirit Palace, nor being merciful!" ”

Qiao Muyi's eyes showed a hint of disgust: "Is the source of the chaos in the mountains and forests over there in Gaoshan City related to you?" ”

The long-haired man said, "That's it, it really scared me." At that time, I went there to hide the corpse, and by the way, I saw if there were any passing passengers, and suddenly the earthquake and landslides began, and then the monster appeared...... I hurriedly ran home.

Later, I heard that the Wuhun Hall and the Watcher had sent someone to subdue the monster, and I didn't dare to go out to work for several days in a row, for fear of attracting the attention of those transcendents......

His Royal Highness the Demon King, those days were really a last resort, and it was definitely not my intention! I stayed up all night for the next few days, and even went to Nantong City to break into a house and kill people, just to fill the rest of those days! I have worked really hard and conscientiously, and I have never failed to live up to everything that His Royal Highness the Demon King has given me! ”

Qiao Muyi's hand grabbing the back of his neck couldn't help but increase his strength, and asked coldly, "Then you say, what did I give you?" ”

The long-haired man said: "The gifts given to me by His Royal Highness the Demon King, which I remember in my heart, are powerful superpowers, and a-"

Suddenly, the long-haired man made a grunt in his throat, and the bones of his body suddenly reversed, and his head exploded, exploding into a bloody flower on the spot.

Qiao Muyi reacted very quickly, and when the long-haired man appeared abnormal, he pounced on Ren Suo, holding Ren Suo and quickly retreating. At this time, Ren Suo whispered: "And! ”

Qiao Muyi continued to perform the "Ghost Walk", skimming the ground like a dragonfly and hiding in the jungle on the other side!

And in the direction of their dodge, at this time, an invisible sword gang swept by, and the ground was lifted into a five-meter-high flying mud!

"Ahh

Under the moonlight, Bright, dressed in a white trench coat, walked out of the woods slowly with a long sword in hand, still maintaining a friendly smile on his face.

He looked at Qiao Muyi, sighed, rolled the blonde hair in his ear with his left hand, and said very regretfully: "You, you are not willing to be a competent demon king, and you are unwilling to die obediently, it is really embarrassing." ”

Qiao Muyi let go of Ren Suo, walked out of the jungle, blocked Ren Suo's figure, and said coldly: "Sure enough, it's you!" ”

At this time, Ren Suo, who was lying in the grass, took a deep breath and forcibly calmed down the chaotic thoughts in his heart.

He let out a long breath and reached for the pocket of his coat.

No.

Ren Suo's face suddenly turned pale, and the fear of death suddenly rose in his heart, but in the next moment, this fear was firmly suppressed by firm determination.

He looked at Qiao Muyi who was standing in front, licked his lips lightly, his face returned to ruddy, his mood calmed down completely, and he reached out and touched his trouser pockets on both sides.
