Li Xuan, Huang Fu Jue and other members of the demon hunting team sat face-to-face at a round table to discuss the next matters.

Although this team, which has been indiscriminate throughout the operation, was only established based on the interests of the Emperor and the Monster Province, at least it came to Rokeshire City for the purpose of hunting down the reincarnation of the Great Mage.

During the month of the mountain closure and roundup, except for people with rich experience like Li Xuan, ordinary Praetorian Guard soldiers and masters were excluded.

Even Huang Fu Jue was only arranged to ensure the safety of the camp behind the search team.

Nothing else, but to try to put at risk people who don't have to be held accountable for it.

"Now that the Great Mage has been reincarnated and escaped, and the people of the Demon Hunting Association have gone to fight against the Origin Demon Clan, what should we do if we are left alone?"

Huang Fu Jue set his eyes on the captain.

"To be honest, I don't have an idea either. Li Xuan confessed: "In terms of combat effectiveness, chasing and killing the reincarnation of the Great Magician alone is tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg. But as we all know, we are a team with the emperor's mandate, and if we choose to give up now, it will be detrimental to ourselves or Your Majesty. ”

"With Your Majesty's wisdom, you should also know that it is impossible for us to defeat the reincarnation of the Great Magician. ”

Huang Fu Jue hesitated for a long time before admitting this sentence: "I believe that both the Demon Province and His Majesty should know about the Origin Demon Clan, and the only thing we can do is to wait here for His Majesty's will to pass it down." ”

Before setting out, when His Majesty was defeated by the Constant Darkness King, he had taught himself that ordinary people could also rely on proper tactical skills to defeat magic.

Looking at the present, I once again have to admit this unbearable reality.

After all, the reincarnation of the Great Mage is not a magical weapon limited to the user, but the most terrifying enemy in history.

Unless there were a few more magical weapons like the Everdark King, and more people who could use this weapon, Huang Fu Jue didn't think that this team would have a chance to defeat the reincarnation of the Great Mage.

Unfortunately, the hastily established demon hunting team is not equipped with any weapons and equipment that are effective for the reincarnation of the great mage, and so far it has only followed the Demon Hunting Association to do some miscellaneous things.

Let the empty martial arts and enthusiastic Huangfu Jue not be aggrieved.

"That's all there is to it. Li Xuan sighed, didn't stay here too long, and opened the next topic.

"So, although this topic is a little inappropriate for this meeting, after all, you have come here in pursuit of the reincarnation of the Great Mage, so you still need to discuss it a little. ”

A team member from the Monster Province jumped and said, "Is it something I mentioned in the Monster Bureau yesterday?"

"That's right. Li Xuan nodded and said, "Regarding the reincarnation and escape of the Great Magician, I discussed it with the senior management of the Monster Bureau yesterday. If there is agreement here today, we will make this public. ”

At first, this information was hidden in order to stabilize the people's hearts and facilitate the arrest of the Demon Hunting Association.

At the same time, they also have great hopes that they can recover the seriously injured target again in a short time.

Surprisingly, not only did he not capture him as he wished, but instead paid a heavy price such as the sacrifice and disappearance of three divine dependents, and the disappearance of many demon hunters.

With the failure of the operation, the announcement of the reincarnation of the Great Magician was also put on the agenda.

Even if they can still try their best to suppress this information, as long as the Great Magician is reincarnated and makes a move next time, it is destined to be impossible to hide.

At that time, not only will the reputation of the Monster Bureau be damaged, but the wavering of the people's hearts and the pressure of the Holy Emperor Church may take the opportunity to crush the royal family of Berglie.

Such a situation is something that no one here wants to see.

"I know the seriousness of this matter, but if it is announced now, will the Bureau of Monsters assess the possible consequences?"

Huang Fu Jue asked with some concern.

If you want to talk about loyalty to the royal family of Begret, I believe that this Janissary Captain is unmatched by everyone.

"Well, yesterday we made a comprehensive estimate of the possible consequences. At the very least, it's much better than hiding it and then revealing it. ”

Li Xuan explained: "Because of the participation of the Demon Hunting Association this time······ So they share part of this responsibility. ”

The earth-shattering blow of the Punisher has long been sung in the streets and alleys, and now that this information has been released, I believe that most people will immediately think of the Demon Hunting Association where the Punisher belongs.

Although it is a bit immoral to pull them into the whirlpool of public opinion in this way, it is the best solution to alleviate the current tension between the royal family and the church.

"Well, I trust the captain's judgment. ”

After hearing the statements of the others, the leader of the Demon Hunting Team finally put his mind at ease, nodded and said, "Then, this information should be announced like the outside world this afternoon." If you can······ Well, you are wronged to take a break from the limelight in the Monster Bureau for the time being. ”

Everyone else present smiled helplessly.

Presumably, if they were recognized by that time, they would inevitably be scolded in the street.

"And one last thing, which should be something that the whole world will take seriously in the near future. Do you have anything to say about the Origin Demon Race?"

Indeed, this is by far the most important thing.

Compared to the reincarnation of the Great Mage, the danger level of the Origin Demon Race is far greater than the former.

After all, this human who has been reincarnated many times will not do anything to ordinary people, and the real contradiction is only in the Holy Emperor Church and the Demon Hunting Association.

However, the Origin Demon Race is different, they are pure killing machines and will not let go of any alien race.

If such a dangerous race were allowed to gain a foothold in the Western world, the threat to any country in the future would be catastrophic.

Even if the envoy of the Demon Hunting Association did not bring the statement of the Begret royal family a few days ago, it is not difficult to imagine that as the inheritor of the will of the Immortal Emperor, Emperor Begret will definitely be like the reinforcement of the Harmen Kingdom.

Even if the other side is a country in hostile power, the idea that all people must unite in the face of disaster is also advocated by the Emperor of Eternal Life.

"If you want to support the kingdom of Harmen, you have to go through Karokaimen by land, which is a very risky act.

After a little thought, Huang Fuqi's face sank.

Trying to take advantage of a hostile country is like walking on thin ice that could burst at any moment.

What's more, now that the Pope, who had been besieged and suppressed in the city of Iaur, was in the Karokai Gate, it was impossible to say that Begret's army would not be attacked by the opportunity.

"However, if Your Majesty asks for it, my Emperor Fu Jue will also go all out to carry it out. ”

"I don't know if it's possible for the demon hunting team to regroup by then. ”

A team with the strongest combat strength in the entire Begret Empire has made various plans to deal with the events that will happen next.

Just as it was about to end, a team member dressed in the uniform of the Monster Bureau broke into the door in a panic and shouted to Li Xuan:

"It's a big deal! Someone secretly released the news that the Great Magician had reincarnated and escaped, and slandered the Li Bureau that you deliberately concealed it! Now more than 100 people are demonstrating at the gate of the Monster Bureau, saying that they want to see you!"

Before the words fell, Li Xuan hurriedly stood up, said goodbye to the others and left the meeting with that person.

He knew very well in his heart what the purpose of the trickster behind him was, and even who it was could guess.

But in the position of director, he had to respond to this matter.

After the turmoil, can the Monster Bureau in Rock County get back on track?

In front of the monster bureau, there was a lot of noise.

Not to thank the Bureau for protecting the city, quite the opposite······

"Li Xuan died for Lao Tzu!"

"A human traitor who secretly colluded with the reincarnation of the Great Mage!"

"Even if the emperor comes today, he can't protect you!"

Words like these hit the Roqueshire Monster Bureau in waves, and the enraged people even began to attack the fortified gates.

Even if a high-level official like Li Zijie personally came forward to explain the plan to release this information in the afternoon, as well as explain the reason for Li Xuan's absence, it would not help at all.

It was just taken as an excuse and whitewash, which further aroused the anger of the marchers.

And people like Ding Yujian just came forward and said a few casual words, and then hid behind the stone wall and laughed secretly.

That's what you want.

Of course, there are also people who watch the excitement, and the crowd on the third floor and the outer three floors not far away have different mentalities and do not directly participate in this parade against the Monster Bureau.

Among them was a less conspicuous gray-robed teenager.

"What the hell is going on?"

He casually asked the old man with a slightly worried expression.

"Director Li, who is not yet the Monster Bureau, in order to ensure the hearts of the people in the city who have just recovered from the shadows, did not release the news of the reincarnation and escape of the great magician as soon as possible. ”

"There's no need to be so intense, right?"

"Alas, these are just angry young people who have been brainwashed by the church, and there is no room for sand in their eyes when it comes to matters related to the reincarnation of the great magician. Even if the other party is well-intentioned, he has saved us countless times in front of him. ”

The old man's expression was full of regret, thinking that he was sympathetic to the siege of Li Xuan this time.

"Then why didn't they go to the Demon Hunting Society, I heard that the reincarnation of the Great Magician was seized by the Demon Hunting Association after he was captured, right?"

"What they care about is not the reincarnation of the Great Mage and the escape, but the anger at the Monster Bureau's concealment—even if it's obvious that the former is important. And there is news that the origin demon race in the west was born, and the people of the Demon Hunting Association have moved there. ”

"How did you know that the Origin Demon Clan had appeared?"

These days, Yu Dongshui only wanders on the rooftops or in remote corners, and sometimes goes around the outer city, so he is not very sensitive to the changes that occur in the city.

"Originally, I didn't know, but this morning there was news that the Origin Demon Clan had conquered the border pass guarded by the Marquis of Milne, and the whole county entered a wartime state, only to learn that the Origin Demon Clan had launched an offensive against the Harmen Kingdom as early as ten days ago. ”

"Wait! Wait a minute!" the gray-robed boy's tone suddenly became excited, eagerly confirmed, "You mean that the Origin Demon Clan not only launched an attack on the Harmen Kingdom, but also launched an attack on the Beglie Empire at the same time?"

"Yes······ That's right. Otherwise, the whole of Roqueshire would not have entered a state of war. ”

The old man was frightened by the sudden change.

"Where are those brutes now?

After figuring out that the beast refers to the Origin Demon Clan, the old man said, "I heard that it is still attacking outside, and many villages in Verda County have been swept away. ”

Seeing that this young man was about to faint, the old man hurriedly added: "However, I heard that the combat power invested by the Origin Demon Clan here is only a few dozen tigers, and the danger should not be great. What's more, with the Demon Hunting Association and the Monster Bureau supporting it, it will be fine. As long as you stay in this Rockshire town, everyone can rest easy. ”

"No! I'm going back!"

Yu Dongshui was pulled by the old man, "Young man, don't get excited." Going out now is tantamount to death!"

The young man gently brushed away the old man's hand, suppressed his mood and said solemnly, "There are people outside that I must protect. ”

That's right, even if there is no need to meddle in the Origin Demon Clan that has nothing to do with him, this is the reason why he is still in a hurry to go back.

The closest city to the Magic Mountains in Rockshire is Hefredevilt.

Brother Yuan and the others are still there, and Xuan'er is still there, so Yu Dongshui has no reason not to go.

Even to face this unknown danger, even if it is equivalent to giving up the hidden body that is now beneficial to you.

"Is there anyone you want to protect?" the old man nodded, "What a good fellow." If there were more people like you, how could such a farce be staged today. ”

The belief that there is someone in the heart who must be guarded is undoubtedly more worthy of respect than ignorant faith.

Yu Dongshui took one last look at the Monster Bureau and saw Li Xuan talking on the stone wall under the protection of everyone.

The silver hair that was unintentionally exposed made the eyes of the old man in front of him flash with surprise.

Without any further stops, the gray-robed boy blended into the crowd and walked away.

In the end, did you choose to go into battle?
