Chapter 267: Quotation (4000 words)
It wasn't long before the Prophet arrived in Nolan that he experienced the 'hospitality' of humanity here.
But their 'hospitality' is also overly welcoming!
It took all the strength of the Prophet to squeeze out the encirclement of more than twenty young girls, and she had just gasped for breath when she noticed that the crowd around her was gathering towards this place, and if she didn't leave quickly, she would be swallowed up by the crowd again.
What's going on?
The Prophet took several steps back with her backpack on her back, and the four apprentices who followed her managed to break free from the human encirclement and run to the Prophet's side.
The Prophet looked incredulously at the crowd running from all directions, and finally looked at his own demonic servants.
She understood... These humans are all here for the sinful demons under her command!
Not only were these humans not afraid of the demon, but the Prophet also heard admiration in the cheers of the human women.
"Guide... Mentor, what do these humans want to do? β
Several of the Prophet's apprentices were already stunned by the swarming of humans, who had never seen so many in their lives.
And these young demons are more or less suffering from a certain 'human phobia' under the rendering of humans by the demon world.
It's the same thing that some humans fear powerful demons.
"I don't know, maybe... Is it a religious believer who believes in demons, and simply believes in the religion of evil karma? β
The Prophet knew that there were still some demonic churches in the human world, and these churches were called 'cultists' by the Holy Religion Country, and if they were placed in the Holy Religion Country... All of these demon worshippers will be guillotined.
But Nolan's 'cultist' had far exceeded the prophet's expectations, and there were already more than thirty humans around the demon of sinful karma at this time, which made the demon named Zerru extremely uneasy.
"Could it be that the third prince established a religion of demons in Nolan?"
The Prophet wondered what the Third Prince had done in Nolan to make these human women so obsessed with this sinful demon...... Palms and ears.
"Zerru keeps smiling, don't attack those humans, and slowly come out." The Prophet said to the demon of sin, who was in a state of extreme nervousness, referred to as fried.
Although the Prophet marveled at the terrible devotion to the devotion of this 'religion' established by the Three Princes, the Prophet did not think that this 'religion' covered the whole of Nolan.
Someone will always recognize her subordinate as a dangerous demon of sin, not some cat who can pinch meat balls smoothly!
His huge body is too conspicuous to stand out in the post square!
The Prophet began to calm the demons of sinful karma and make him try to break out of the encirclement of the humans.
"Tutor... I... I seem to see the emblem of the Holy Religion Country. β
Suddenly, an apprentice whispered to the prophet.
Before entering Nolan, the Prophet had taught these **** young demons a lot of 'untouchable humans', among which the knights wearing the missionary uniforms of the Holy Religion Country and the armor with the emblem of the Holy Religion were all of the 'high danger' level.
Basically, if you see that you can run away, run away, and never linger too much.
The Prophet looked in the direction the apprentice had pointed to the other side of the inn square, and sure enough, three knights with the emblem of the Holy Religion on their shoulder armor were hurrying towards it.
"Trouble." The last thing the Prophet wanted was finally here, and the huge body of the Demon of Sinful Karma had indeed attracted the Holy Cult Army of the Holy Cult Country.
"Everyone, please stay away from that demon! He's very dangerous! β
The three Holy Sect Army knights rushed to the side of the post station, saw the demon of sinful karma surrounded by the crowd, and pulled out the long sword at their waist without thinking about it.
One of the Holy Legion knights was unarmoured, and the Prophet could see the knight's frightened and twisted expression.
And their hands holding their swords were shaking.
This is how human beings should behave when they encounter the demon of sin...... The Prophet wondered why this thought came to him.
The Demon of Sinful Karma is an extremely dangerous monster on the battlefield, and an ordinary Holy Cult Army is absolutely unable to defeat such a dangerous monster, and only a senior Holy Cult Army has the ability to fight against the Demon of Evil Karma.
But all three look like they're all at the level of recruits.
"Ladies, please hurry away from that demon!"
One of the Holy Cult knights shouted again at the crowd that surrounded Zeru, but no one answered him at all.
"Be careful, I feel more than this demon here."
The leader of the Holy Cult glanced around, and then quickly locked his gaze on one of the Prophet's ...... Apprentice.
"Guide... Mentor. β
The apprentice was immediately panicked by the gaze of the Holy Cult Army, and retreated in fear.
The moment the Holy Cult knights drew their swords, the demon sensed that his master was under threat, and he pushed away the humans who surrounded him in a somewhat brutal way, and then stood in front of the prophet.
"Stay away from them! Mankind. β
The Demon of Sinful Karma, Zeru, let out a threatening roar at the three Holy Cultists, and the roar of the Demon of Guilty Karma made the hands of two of the Holy Army recruits tremble with their swords.
It seems that the deterrent effect of the demon of sinful karma on humans is still there.
What the Prophet couldn't understand was that the few human women around her seemed to become even more excited after seeing the posture of this sinful demon standing in front of her?
Are the believers of the 'religion' established by the third prince so devout?
"Go and rule over the Bishop." The chief knight who led the team made a wise decision at this moment, and then he shouted to the onlookers, "Please get out of here quickly!" That's a brutal demon of sin! He has the potential to cause great damage. β
Some of the surrounding onlookers heeded the knight's warning and quickly left the land of right and wrong, but a small number of people still stayed.
"Please get out of here quickly!" The chief knight continued to shout at those who did not want to leave.
He couldn't understand why a dangerous demon of sinful karma would appear in a human city, but once this demon raged, it would definitely cause great casualties.
"Zeru, let's go."
The Prophet wasn't going to wait for the Holy Cult's support to arrive, she was ready to flee.
But just then, a group of white-robed men suddenly appeared around the Klia Station, and they began to evacuate the crowd, and one of them approached the Holy Army knight and asked him what had happened.
No... Support from the Holy Cult?
Before the Prophet could react to what was happening, a carriage slowly drove up to her from outside the Klya Station.
The carriages were slowly opened, and the third prince of the Demon Realm, Qiao Xiu, sat in it.
"Prophet, you're ten minutes ahead of the agreed time, but it's not too late, get in the car."
"Get in the car? Those Holy Cults? The Prophet noticed that the Holy Cult Army was entangled in white-robed figures, who seemed to be Nolan's enforcers.
"They won't cause us trouble, but the karma demon behind you is likely to cause congestion on the streets around Squirrel Street, and now there are many people in Nolan who are coming to see the karma demon behind you." Qiao Xiu said.
After listening to Qiao Xiu's reminder, the prophet didn't hesitate too much and got into the carriage directly, her four apprentices also successfully got into the carriage, while the demon of sinful karma squeezed in with some difficulty, and could only tilt his head in the small space of the carriage.
The carriage began to move slowly towards the destination that Qiao Xiu had said.
The Prophet took advantage of his petite body to get to the window of the carriage and look out at the scenery, just as Josius had said, the Holy Cult Army was constantly explaining to the enforcers the dangers of the 'Evil Karma'.
But the enforcers still didn't let the Holy Cult Army come after the wagon.
As incredible as the Prophet was, the city's enforcers turned out to be... On their side?
The Prophet sat back in the carriage and looked at Qiao Xiu, who was sitting across from him.
I hadn't seen this demon prince for a long time, and his temperament still hadn't changed, and in the eyes of the prophet, it was all the kind of raunchy, revealing a kind of 'lazy and sloppy' temperament.
To put it simply, it is a temperament that is difficult to achieve......
But what the third prince did in Nolan made the prophet put away the contempt he had always had.
"Your Highness Qiao Xiu, you have really managed to make the people of Nolan... Worship demons? β
Before he came, the Prophet had doubts about Nolan's ability to accept demons, but what had happened at the station just now made the Prophet have to believe that Nolan's people have not only accepted demons, but even liked them...... Demon.
"Worship? It's not that point yet, it's only a small change in their perception of us, but it's still a long way from 'full acceptance'. β
Josiu shrugged his shoulders and said that the people of Nolan were not yet the Virgin enough to accept foreign races unconditionally.
"But after my servant Zeru revealed his true identity at that inn, the humans not only did not fear, but also showed admiration."
The Prophet glanced at the demon of sin who was tilting his head in the carriage, and despite the large amount of space inside the carriage, it could not fully accommodate the demon's massive body.
"Uh... Your servant is only slightly special, and those people may have mistaken him for another demon of sinful karma, my squire Zenas, who is in Nolan's words... Well... Very popular, especially for some teenage girls. β
"Popular?"
The Prophet had never heard of humans describing this demon as popular.
"It's a little hard to explain, I'll tell you everything when you get there, and while the inhabitants of Nolan can accept most demons, your minions are still 'extremely dangerous' demons to Nolan's authorities, so he can't stay in the city for long."
Qiao Xiu admits that the appearance of the demon of sinful karma is indeed quite ...... cute, but Qiao Xiu can't ignore their powerful combat ability and ability to travel through time and space.
Now Qiao Xiu is equivalent to transporting a heavily armed cat-shaped weapon to the center of Nolan.
No matter how soft the fur on the claws of this cat-shaped weapon was, and how comfortable the meat ball was to pinch, the seven sages of Nolan would not allow a demon that could pose a threat to thousands of people to appear in the center of the city.
This is mainly due to appearance, for example, a dragon can enter a human city in human form, but if he passes over the city in his original form, then the ruler of the city will not hesitate to choose to resist.
"His Highness Qiao Xiu... You're not Nolan's in power? β
The Prophet also thought that Qiao Xiu had successfully entered Nolan's power class, otherwise his 'Demon Religion' activities would not have gone so smoothly, and the mobilization of so many law enforcers to block the Holy Cult Army just now was something that a person in power could do, no matter how you look at it.
"Nolan's power system is not so simple, I do know a sage, but I don't have any real power in my hands, as for those law enforcers just now, ......" Qiao Xiu saw the reason why the young demon asked a question, "It is not because of any high-level orders that those law enforcers choose to shield you from leaving." β
"What's that?"
"Could it be that those humans are willing to take the initiative to protect us?"
The two apprentices of the Prophet couldn't help but intervene in the conversation, and listening to their naΓ―ve remarks, Qiao Xiu couldn't help but laugh.
"How is it possible, the demon is not a giant panda, I rely on this."
Qiao Xiu's left hand opened and closed instantly, and when he clenched it into a fist again, a shiny object appeared between his fingers, it was a gold coin.
"I gave the bailiff in charge of Squirrel Street a price I couldn't refuse, and I simply bribed the enforcer." Qiao Xiu said.
"I see."
The prophet was disappointed to hear this answer, but he expected it.
Humans are not good creatures, they are indifferent most of the time, let alone caring about other races.
"I've arranged a place for you to live in, but your servant Zeru must return to the Demon Realm, after all, this is a human city." Qiao Xiu said with some regret.
The carriage did not head towards the center of Nolan, but stopped outside the city of Nolan.
No matter how much Beauty and the Demon fans love the Demon of Sin, it can't change the decision of the Nolan Seven Sages that they won't allow a demon with the ability to travel through time to stay in the city.
This will only create an unpredictable threat to the whole of Nolan.
Although Qiao Xiu is changing the human impression of demons, Nolan has not established any alliance with the demon world.
"I understand."
When the carriage stopped, the Prophet opened the door of the carriage and stepped out of the carriage.
"You can have your minions go to the village where Zerus is, and I think the villagers of that village will be happy to take on another demon of sinful karma." Qiao Xiu gave him a new place to go.
"Zeru, you follow the advice of His Highness Qiao Xiu to join your compatriots, and be careful not to clash with anyone on the way!"
"Yes."
At the Prophet's command, the demon left the carriage and headed for the forest, watching his back disappear into the depths of the forest.
