Volume 1: Walking on the Brink of Destruction and Deliverance Chapter 115: Assemble
Along the way, he encountered a total of three demons, all of whom were defeated by Jun Xi, the punisher who took the initiative to attack.
Later on the journey, the Demon Hunter Association received a message from the Doomsday Thundercrate Guardians, asking them to go to North Miris first to discuss how to deal with the Origin Demons.
Following the route given by the Demon Suppressor, more than twenty Demon Hunters led by the Vice President of the Demon Hunter Association and the Punisher appeared at the south gate of North Miris.
"Hunting······ Demon Hunting Society!"
After seeing the white crystal armor that was rumored to be miraculous, the soldiers defending the city swept away the sorrow of the past and smiled with joy from the heart.
Saved! Finally saved!
Seeing that the soldier was about to scream, the punisher put his finger to his mouth to prevent too many people from noticing him, signaling the other to be quiet.
The soldier, who knew very well that the punisher should not be seen by others, immediately nodded and reported that the unknown people above had opened the city gates.
Entering North Miris, Jun Xi also dismounted and put away the Salvation Armor for the first time, so as not to attract more attention.
Due to the rush of their journey, they did not carry the badge of the Demon Hunting Society.
And even if you bring the badge of the Demon Hunting Association, the other party may not recognize it, right?
Therefore, as a last resort, Junxi had no choice but to show the appearance of the savior armor in front of the soldiers, so that he could enter the city as soon as possible.
The news of the origin demon race became more and more frequent along the way, and the target of the group of magical races also pointed directly at the border city of the Harmen Kingdom with the Karokaimen Empire and the Manmir Kingdom.
If there is only one demon slayer in this city so far, the sooner the countermeasures are discussed, the better.
"Let's all get off and walk. ”
Vice President Mao Ruifeng, who had been surveying the front for a while, came back and commanded all the demon hunters.
"It was really no problem to walk, after all, we were already in town. But what should these horses do?"
One of the gods replied.
They didn't carry a lot of money, and they had to pay for food in the city.
And if these horses were to be kept in the stables, they could not afford to charge them.
What's more, North Miris is the main city for Asians to trade with non-hostile humans due to its direct overland access to the West through the Twin Alliance.
The Demon Hunting Society, which is somewhat prejudiced against the subhumans, does not have much power here, and even the base is only built in the county town next door.
This is also the overall trend of the Demon Hunting Society around the world.
With the Begret Empire as the center, it radiates to the central and eastern parts of the Karokaimen Empire, the Palanrin Kingdom, and the Harmen Kingdom, and is the place where the power of the Demon Hunting Association is most concentrated.
Such areas often have more than one branch stationed in each county-level city, and even some smaller cities will have their presence.
However, if they reach the extreme west of the kingdom of Harmen, their power will be much reduced.
There is often only one chapter that manages the demon hunting in a few counties, as most of the monsters here are hunted by freelancers and some subhumans as their main source of income.
It just so happened that the Demon Hunter Society didn't have that many resources to train demon hunters who could travel all over the world, so they didn't plan to come and develop the area far from the center.
"If you want to give the horses, give them to the militia over there. There is no such thing as a professional investigative team like ours, and if you want to get enough information, you need more ordinary scouts. ”
Mao Ruifeng pointed to the conscription office not far away, which was the only militia gathering activity carried out by wealthy local businessmen to gather self-defense forces.
Since the government department also urgently needs such a militia organization to actively participate in the defense of the Origin Demon Clan, they have not been arrested for any reason such as rebellion and illegal accumulation of armed forces.
This phenomenon can also be seen in the cities they pass through along the way.
"To be able to have such an awareness can be regarded as a hero. ”
Jun Xi nodded in agreement with Mao Ruifeng's suggestion, beckoned a few demon hunters and led the two dozen horses to the recruitment office.
"Then it's time to inquire about this place. ”
Just now, he heard some citizens happily discussing things like artifacts.
Roughly speaking, an artifact wielder who single-handedly defeated the Origin Demon in the city of Augusto came to North Miris.
And there is also news that a few days ago, two people from Aguto killed people in the Yingchun Pavilion, and I heard that the black forces like the Six Wings bowed their heads to them.
Together, these two pieces of information can be deduced that Andrey, the owner of the Doomsday Thunderbox, arrived in the city not long ago, and then caused something to happen in a place called Yingchun Pavilion.
If you want to find him, you will undoubtedly have to go to the Yingchun Pavilion to inquire about his whereabouts.
Mao Ruifeng took advantage of Junxi's empty order to deliver the horse, walked to the street and stopped a person and asked:
"This big brother, do you know where the Spring Pavilion is?"
Unexpectedly, before the words fell, the new militiaman who looked honest and honest pointed at Andre's nose and scolded:
"We're tired and tired to go to the city wall to guard against that bullshit origin demon, you wastes still have the heart to go to Yingchun Pavilion to play with women!?"
"Even the murderous underworld over there in the Six Wings knows how to send us funds, and you still want to send money to those goblins?!"
scolded Xing, he grabbed Mao Ruifeng's arm and dragged him to the recruiting office, and scolded and scolded: "You damn guys, I'm also out of the way, whether you agree or not, I must get you to the city wall!"
Mao Ruifeng, who was stunned for a while, finally reacted, the so-called beating of Yingchun Pavilion is a brothel!
It's to blame that the Demon Hunter has never had time to touch this kind of thing, so he didn't see something unusual from the name at first.
But you can't just be misunderstood by others and dragged to the city wall, right?
Mao Ruifeng stood still, allowing the other party to drag without moving half a step.
"Big brother, you may have misunderstood, I want to go to the Yingchun Pavilion to investigate someone. ”
"Eh, you bad old man looks weak, I didn't expect you to have so much strength!
The militiaman didn't hear Mao Ruifeng's words, but just changed his posture and tried harder to take the battle-hardened demon hunter away.
Mao Ruifeng didn't want to entangle with him too much, so he stopped with force, causing the other party to lose his balance and almost sit on the ground.
"There's no time for you to waste here. ”
The vice president of the Demon Hunting Association stared solemnly at the frightened militia:
"I'm a demon hunter from the Demon Hunter Association, and I need to go to the Yingchun Pavilion where the person you said the artifact holder had been. This is related to whether or not this Northern Miris can survive the wave of the attack of the Origin Demon Race. So, please tell me now, where the hell is the Spring Pavilion!"
The last roar made the militiaman's legs tremble.
He'd heard of the Demon Hunter Association, and the demon hunters who came out there were all good at hunting monsters, and they were many times better than those freelancers in the city.
I didn't expect to provoke such a character, and the other party seemed to be angry······
"I forgive you for your recklessness. I also apologize for my own mistakes. It's just that this matter is really urgent, if you know the location of the Spring Pavilion, please be sure to tell us. ”
At this time, the other demon hunters standing not far away also looked at this side.
The militia swallowed his saliva, and finally spoke: "It turns out that you are not going to prostitute yourself." ”
Realizing that Mao Ruifeng's expression was getting darker and darker, the militia quickly told him the location.
"Thank you. ”
With this sentence, the vice president of the Demon Hunting Society returned to the others.
At this time, Junxi also got rid of the thousand thanks and met Mao Ruifeng.
"I've found Andrey's trace. ”
"Hey, the vice president really has you! Or did you just come in and find out?"
Junxi patted Mao Ruifeng's shoulder without saying anything, and the latter just opened him with his hand.
"How can you be your vice president without this ability?"
He took the lead and walked to the location of the Spring Pavilion and said, "Now you have a chance to feast your eyes." ”
"Why?" Jun-hee chased after him and asked, "Where are we going?"
"I'll leave that to your Andrea, we're going to visit the brothel where he had an accident the other day. ”
"Oh······"
The Punisher turned to the demon hunter and asked, "Brother, what is a brothel?"
Passing through a meaningless black gate, three people could be seen sitting together discussing something from outside the broken wall.
"Sounds a little tricky. ”
Brewster, who had just lost a large sum of gold coins, was now worried about what Andre had said.
Even if you don't want to admit it, after learning that the Origin Demon Race has also started using human tools, the threat factor will go up a few notches.
Just from the catapult incident in the city of Augusto, you can see how great this potential is.
Most importantly, this battle is not a life-and-death duel on the battlefield, but an offensive and defensive battle of the city.
But just a catapult controlled by the Origin Demon made the Doomsday Thunderbox unable to join the battle in order to protect the city gate from being broken, and how could the Abyss Demon Eye, who was left alone, compete with all the other Origin Demons whose hole cards were unknown?
Although it is said that the militia organized by ordinary people also has some effect, but to put it mildly, in addition to collecting intelligence, it is to rely on crowd tactics to consume the magic endurance and physical strength of the origin demon race.
They didn't expect ordinary people to defeat the demons at all, and ordinary people themselves understood this truth.
The gap in strength is too large, so big that it is almost impossible to make up for it.
"There is also the new member of the Origin Demon Clan, who is extremely lacking in information, and we still have a hard time figuring out what his abilities are. ”
The so-called ability refers to innate magic, and innate magic can only be one.
But having the ability to fly and control weapons at the same time can't be linked to this.
Could it be ······
As soon as the idea came to him, Brewster shook it off and didn't even go deeper.
When he inherited the Abyssal Eye, he wrote down his responsibilities and beliefs as a demon suppressor.
There was absolutely no way that Lord would have betrayed humanity, and it would be disrespectful to speculate on him in this way.
Andre also saw what he was thinking, just smiled and shook his head, and said, "Maybe there are really people who are born with two kinds of natural magic." ”
He said, "After all, the old man read from an ancient book that the master who created magic said that human beings are immeasurable beings. ”
"Maybe. ”
Brewster glanced at Wrightin, who had been silent, and the other was listening to their conversation in confusion and pretending to be serious.
What exactly does magic mean to the average person?
"Hope for the arrival of the Demon Hunting Society, the old man left them a message along the way. ”
Andre let out a long sigh, as if he was unwilling to do anything about his powerlessness.
In fact, he also noticed why the Origin Demon Clan's performance so far was unreasonable.
That is, there was no will to conquer, and there was no manipulation of the marching route, as before.
What is the purpose of such a head-to-west march?
Is it simply to think that the West can get an environment in which to quickly regain strength?
Behind this, is there something hidden?
Maybe you caught the demon clan that suddenly appeared and had unpredictable abilities, so you can know the cause of all this change.
