On the 28th day of the Celestial Lunar Month, the members of the Demon Hunting Association, who had been on a month-long mission to capture the reincarnation of the archmage in the city of Roqueshire, had arrived at the border of Wildshire, a neighboring county of Roqueshire.

Less than twenty leagues further on, you can see the border checkpoint guarded by Milnehous, which is also one of the westernmost checkpoints of the Beglie Empire.

In order to ensure the speed, the personnel of the Demon Hunting Association did not take a carriage, but relied on supplies along the road, and changed to five or six horses to gallop all the way to this area.

From receiving the news to coming to the border, it took less than two days.

They didn't talk too much along the way, and everyone was mentally preparing for the next big battle that would be as dangerous as dealing with the reincarnation of the Great Mage.

Once at war with those legendary races, even the gods of the Demon Hunter Society cannot guarantee that they will return alive.

What's more, their current state is not very good, and after a month of continuous search and arrest and two days of long-distance travel, more than half of their combat effectiveness has already been lost.

Therefore, Mao Ruifeng decided to rest for half a day in the territory of Milnehou, and then relied on force to force his way through the Demon Mountains to reach the Kingdom of Harmen.

After all, the Origin Demon Clan is no longer there, although the [Heavenly Demon Tree] in the Demon Mountain Range should still be there, but as long as you bypass the base camp of the Origin Demon Clan, there will be no problem.

Coupled with the information revealed by Mao Ruifeng about the Demon Suppressor who inherited the will of the Immortal Emperor in the Demon Mountain Range, the Feathered Human Clan, it would not take long to cross the Demon Mountain Range.

The soldiers are very fast, and they can't let the Origin Demon Clan further expand their power in the Harmen Kingdom, otherwise it will cause irreparable consequences.

The group of centaurs slowed down as they galloped and finally came to the door of the Marquis of Milne.

Milnehou, who had already received the news from the advance briefer of the Demon Hunting Society, also waited under the door with a team of soldiers, prepared all kinds of food and water.

After seeing the city gate from afar, Junxi followed the principle of the punisher not showing up, and put on the savior armor that consumed a lot of money on his tired body.

The soldiers who were one step later saw their commotion.

How can these soldiers remain silent when they see gods and punishers whom ordinary people may never see in their lifetime?

Of course, it was only these soldiers, this group of soldiers who had been "stationed" on the border for a long time and came to gild.

Even Mao Ruifeng couldn't help but shake his head, feeling in his heart how could such an organizational discipline be able to block the attack of the Origin Demon Clan.

If it weren't for the strong strength of the Begret Empire itself, as well as the protection of the Demon Hunting Association and the Holy Emperor Church, these soldiers would have become the first victims of the Origin Demon Race when they appeared.

The troops led by Junxi quickened their pace slightly, and soon appeared in front of the soldiers at the city gate and Milnehou.

"Presumably this is Lord Punisher and Lord Mao Ruifeng, the vice president of the Demon Hunting Association, right?"

The Marquis of Milne, as an Imperial Marquis, pays homage to the two figures who have gone ahead.

Mao Ruifeng stared at Milnehou, who was the first to salute, his eyes were a little strange, and his intuition told him that this person who seemed to be full of aristocratic atmosphere did not seem to be simple.

But when he had to say what was wrong, he couldn't grasp the point, but he felt that this person's aura was different from that of others.

Maybe it's just the self-confidence and cultivation of the superiors?

Even if you are the vice president of the Demon Hunting Association, to be honest, Mao Ruifeng has no understanding of the etiquette of the national aristocracy at all, including the other vice president, Gong Changhong.

Probably only Zhuo Mingde, the president of the imperial family, who may enter the imperial capital to contact the royal family, knows a little bit about this.

After all, a large proportion of the operating funds of the Demon Hunting Association come from the investment of the royal family, and it is not very good to be polite in front of investors.

"I've seen the Marquis of Milne. ”

Junxi, as a young man, didn't seem to have too many worries like Mao Ruifeng, and after seeing the other party's etiquette, he also got off the horse and went back clumsily.

Mao Ruifeng had no choice but to beckon everyone to come to the ground to respond to Milnehou's respect.

The famous marquis smiled, and personally took a plate of fruit and sent it to Mao Ruifeng: "You have worked hard for the fate of mankind, if the old man can be dozens of years younger, he will definitely go with you to participate in this battle that is destined to go down in history!"

"I am also a good witness to Lord Milne's achievements when he was young, and I was able to join the Demon Hunting Society because I was a child. ”

Mao Ruifeng took the fruit on the plate and said a response that I don't know if it was true or false.

Assume it's true!

Milnehou laughed and ordered the soldier to take the reins and welcome the Demon Hunters into the checkpoint of full alert.

But such a level of alert once again aroused Mao Ruifeng's suspicions.

"What's wrong with President Mao?" Milnehou noticed Mao Ruifeng, whose expression had become strange, and asked, "Are you too tired these days?"

"I thought we were the only ones who lived like a year in these days, but I didn't expect Milnehou's checkpoint to be so heavily guarded. I think this has been going on for at least a week, right?"

It stands to reason that if you want to let the whole pass enter such that all the ammunition is fully prepared, and the gold-plated soldiers have also begun to train in an orderly manner, it will not be possible in a few days.

And even if the Demon Hunting Association got the information about the appearance of the Origin Demon Race, it was only two days ago, and Milnehou should have gotten the information even later.

At the same time, since the Origin Demon Clan deliberately bypassed the Begret Empire, of course, they would also notice their whereabouts here.

It is reasonable to say that Milnehou's level should not be able to know the news of the Origin Demon Race in advance of the Demon Hunter Association, nor should it be uncharacteristically put on alert.

"It's actually been ten days. ”

Miln Hou couldn't hear the meaning of the words of the vice president of the Demon Hunting Association, but he only replied unhurriedly:

"Ten days ago, we captured a monster feather man from the Magic Mountain Range, and we learned from him that there seems to be some abnormal changes in the inside of the Demon Mountain Range. ”

Speaking of this, he pretended to sigh and said: "I really didn't expect that the original Origin Demon Clan would act again after a lapse of six hundred years, and if you want to blame it, the old man can't help but correct that monster on the spot before he gets enough information." ”

"Is it the one who is called the Feather Brake Demon Protector?"

Mao Ruifeng's eyelids jumped after hearing his explanation, and he felt that it was impossible for such a fighting power to be captured by Milnehou's people.

"Is it the demon who can use the [Wind Blade]?"

Milnehou shook his head after thinking for a moment and said, "That monster doesn't use any magic, it should just be an ordinary monster." If Feathersha came in person, we wouldn't be able to hold it. ”

With the marquis's wry smile, Mao Ruifeng's suspicion lowered a little.

Not to mention that the other party answered fluently and explained reasonably.

If the Origin Demon Clan takes action, ordinary monsters either choose to obey or flee.

If it's a monster with a higher level of sanity like a human or a subhuman, it will also have a trace of will, and communication is not a big problem under special circumstances.

"Is there any other information besides this?, such as how is the situation of the Feathered Humans in the Demon Mountain Range now?"

Since they have captured the monsterized feathered people and successfully negotiated, it should not be just that they have obtained such ambiguous information.

The answerer seemed to be taken aback, and said, "I didn't expect that there really was a feather human race in such a terrifying place as the Demon Mountain Range?"

"So you got the information?"

Milnehou nodded, "That's right, we got information from him about the gathering place and other places. And the map is still kept in the old man's tent. ”

"Be sure to show me around. ”

"Absolutely. Milnehou made a gesture of please, and led them in the direction of the luxurious tent.

After seeing this villa, which was out of step with the surrounding environment, the people of the Demon Hunting Association didn't pay much attention to it, and after a short pause, they followed Milnehou inside.

"This is it. ”

Milnehou took out a map with several circles and straight lines scrawled on it, and if you looked closely, you could see that these places could be made a big fuss.

The Marquis said as he laid out the map on the table, "That monster feather man just said that the feather people have taken action on this matter, and there is already a team of feather people who have followed the route marked in this straight line to the west side of the Demon Mountain Range. ”

"Could it be that after that monster feather man, there are no other feather people who come here to pass on information?"

Since those feather people in the Demon Movement Mountain Range had already sensed the movements of the Origin Demon Clan, why didn't they send someone to the east to report to the Begret Empire?

"Unfortunately, no. Maybe I had some accident on the way. In the past few days, we have also sent people into the inner side of the Magic Mountains to inquire about information, and we have found a spot littered with feathers and some metal armor fragments. ”

Milne shook his head helplessly.

"It's unlucky for us, or is everything in the calculations of the Origin Demon Clan. ”

Mao Ruifeng also regretted this incident.

Those feathers and armor fragments were obviously the equipment of the Feathered Infantry, and it seemed that they really encountered a monster or a demon attack on the way, which caused the news here to be delayed for more than a week.

"In short, the old man's suggestion is to follow this straight road, after all, this is the direction chosen by the Feather Clan, and it should be the fastest way to reach the western part of the Demon Mountain Range. ”

He pointed out one of several straight lines with his baton.

"That's right, since it was the route chosen by the Feather Clan, it was a way to avoid monsters to the greatest extent and quickly reach the west at that time. ”

Junxi agreed on the sidelines.

"There's one more thing I'd like to ask the Marquis of Milne. Mao Ruifeng acquiesced to the route and moved on to another question.

"Say, as long as the old man knows, he will tell you everything. Even if you ask the old man to join your team, the old man will not hesitate. ”

"Old hero, you don't need to go on adventures with us, as long as you can hold the level of this Begret Empire, it will be the greatest reward for our efforts. ”

Mao Ruifeng had no doubts about this respected old man at this time: "I would like to ask your lordship, based on your years of combat experience, what is the current level of the Origin Demon Clan's power in the Harmen Kingdom, but what will happen when we arrive?"

"According to you, the Origin Demon Clan has been invading the Harmen Kingdom for nearly ten days. If you choose to attack suddenly, the first level can be solved in a few moments and a half. ”

"If the Origin Demon Clan chooses to slaughter all of them to block the information, the next offensive will be extremely smooth. Even a county-level big city couldn't resist the attack of the Origin Demon Clan unprepared. ”

"If the Demon Emperor is aiming to conquer the West, the first to bear the brunt is the capital of the Harmen Kingdom. That's why I suggest you go to the county town of Oguto first, and maybe you can support the ground. ”

After listening to Milenhou's speech, Mao Ruifeng was deeply convinced, and said with respect: "I have been taught. ”
