No one wants to be pinned down in a bad situation and then defeated by an enemy they look down on!

In particular, demons who were once human beings and have since abandoned their human life forms and evolved into more powerful beings have essentially looked down on fragile, short-lived humans, and from the bottom of their hearts refused to believe that such small creatures as "humans" could threaten them...... Although the demons were uneasy after knowing that Camelot had obtained the ultimate spell seal, they still had a glimmer of peace of mind, and the weak and fragile humans could not truly shake their existence.

With such an attitude of disdain and contempt for human beings, the speed of action is faster than usual when he is slacking off, from sentry spying to sending more spies and undercover agents than usual. From their outward disdainful attitude, they can see the inner life of these demons...... Panicked.

After a few more days, the spies who had been planted in the human forces before, with all kinds of money, beauty, and life threats, confirmed the authenticity of the news many times, and Enola went out in obscurity some time ago, and when she returned, she did bring back something important.

The high-ranking demon who died in the wasteland territory, the forbidden place that he had been hiding in the past, was all turned over after the death of that high-ranking demon, and it was indeed similar to the news sent back by the spies. It turned out that the high-ranking demon, for so many years, he had been guarding the carrier of the ultimate spell mark in a very low-key manner!

Why was it that as soon as Enola returned, the spies behind enemy lines were able to relay the news? During the long period of hostility and resistance, Camelot did not hesitate to develop the "Curse Seal" and "Spell Energy Weapon" in an attempt to pull in the power of the gap between him and the demon, and in the same way, the demon has never been leisurely.

Shapeshifters, banshees, succubi, a variety of demons that can disguise themselves as humans, are simply natural spy seedlings, and there are also some demons with low combat effectiveness. Wouldn't it be a waste of resources not to throw them behind enemy lines to get the most value?

So after the Engraved Angel brought back the Ultimate Spell Seal, these spies who had been lurking in the human forces for a long time merged with the sentinels who had reunited here later, and continued to confirm the errors one by one, and then brought them back, and then caused waves of vibrations in the demonic hinterland.

The news brought back by the sentinels themselves, and the news brought back by dozens or hundreds of sentinels was almost the same, compared to the information transmitted back by the front line with crystal divination and blood spiritism, the accuracy of the ultimate spell seal was beyond doubt.

This is a large amount of manpower and time-consuming spying methods. There is a danger that undercover agents can be detected by humans, but there is no more effective way to do it. The entrustment information of the soul contract is indeed very fast, and the bounty of 1 soul value can be sent to all the demons with the emblem immediately, but this method of transmission is too insecure. It's child's play.

For example, at the foot of Quenching Volcano Mountain, Jory is sitting on a rock by the lake of fire. He was stunned as he watched the soul contract in his consciousness.

It's like fast-forwarding. Countless pieces of entrustment information are vying to jump out. Before Jory could see the title of a commission that had just popped up, he was squeezed down by four or five commissions in the blink of an eye.

The dazzling speed of flashing means that hundreds or thousands of real-time moving orders are flashed one after another. At such a time, it is impossible to find a serious entrusted task, and the eyes are full of afterimages of brushes being squeezed down.

This behavior is simply like ...... Swipe.

"Be careful! Look at the sword! ”

A sudden shout rang in my ears. Ling Qiaoli, who was staring at the entrusted information, shuddered, and he subconsciously held the rock with both hands, and his whole body backflipped, soaring towards the fiery red lake behind him.

"Whoa—"

Jory who somersaulted on a reflex. After being stunned in the air for a moment, he fell into the lake with a thud.

At the foot of the quenching volcano is a fiery red lake, not a lava lake under the inner quenching volcano, but such a lake has a very frightening temperature. The temperature of the boiling water is 110 degrees Celsius, and the minimum temperature of the flame is about 300 degrees Celsius, but the water of this lake has a high temperature of more than 500 degrees, and the wood and cloth thrown into it ignite instantly.

Falling into the lake with a high temperature of more than 500 degrees, Qiao Li raised his head and broke out of the water, and he floated in the lake and looked at Xu Lihui with a displeased expression. It was Xu Lihui's shout just now, which caused Qiao Li's battle instinct to react.

Jory has lived a fulfilling life during this time......

Enriched to the exhaustion of being tired every day, he fought against Xu Lihui, Huo Nan, and Johnson every day. In line with the soul contract signed with the lava lord, the fire hunters of the quenching volcano cannot attack themselves, Jory has fully practiced the offensive ability of the blood whip for a few days, and never thought that Xu Lihui, a freak, under the absolute constraints of the soul contract, he actually found a loophole, and perfectly avoided the restriction of "do not hurt Jory".

Sword intent - the meaning of the sword is formless and substantial, this is the artistic conception that Xu Lihui claims that only a swordsman who is well versed in the way of the sword can comprehend. Invisibly, the enemy can be infected by the sword intent, and the wave of the hand exudes the swordsman's own state of mind, infecting the enemy, so as to control the rhythm of the battle.

Regardless of whether Xu Lihui's sword intent was profound or not, after Qiao Li fought with him a few times, he was so disgusted that he was about to vomit. Fighting with Xu Lihui, it was obvious that Qiao Li was attacking him the whole time, but it gave Qiao Li the feeling that he was being bullied. At the most critical time, the blood whip will always be inexplicably "almost", and the five-meter-long blood whip is out of reach at the critical moment, and Jory always feels that something is interfering with his strength.

With this dull rhythm of battle, Jory was about to vomit, and he felt like he was stuck in a quagmire of strength and nowhere to go. On the other hand, Xu Lihui, who was holding a toothpick in one hand and a thin "three-foot Qingfeng" was like a fish in water, and his defense was very unhappy.

But......

If he also knew Xu Lihui's self-proclaimed "sword intent" and learned his weapon artistic conception, how powerful would the blood whip be?

Such a psychological need for "artistic conception" has caused Qiao Li to often go to Xu Lihui for tricks, although he wants to vomit disgusting every time he fights.

However, Xu Lihui, who took the initiative to come to the door today, did not mean to practice tricks with Qiao Li, he walked to the lake with his sword, and looked at Qiao Li who was floating on the water like a bath in the fire lake, and couldn't help but sigh with envy.

"What a boy with a talent like a demon, when he first came, he was still very afraid of the heat, and after only a few days, he bathed leisurely in the fire, alas, ......"

Listening to it makes people feel that it is a false compliment, and when you hear it, it is a message to send people, and when he heard this, Qiao Li frowned, and he asked directly: "Can you not use such perfunctory words to squeeze me, or get to the point, when will you teach me "artistic conception"?" ”

As he spoke, Jory swam to the shore, grabbed the rocks by the lake of fire and climbed up, he reached out and patted the pale red liquid on his clothes, and actually photographed countless scorching sparks.

"It's not that I don't want to teach you, what do you see you've been doing lately?" Xu Lihui hated iron and steel, and stretched out his hand to support his forehead in distress: "You have always been absent-minded these days, and you can't do it when you practice whipping, you ...... What the hell are you thinking? Or are you reading the message that the soul contract pops up and can't let go of the topic of the ultimate spell mark and the high-ranking demon? ”

"I ......"

As soon as he said a word, Jory fell into an eerie silence.

He had been a little absent-minded for a few days......

In the chest, there seems to still be an inexplicable throbbing, and the heart seems to be beating faster out of control. Missing Xu Lihui's gaze, Qiao Li looked to the southeast, and he had an incredible illusion, as if something attracted him in that direction.

The hazy guidance in his mind seemed to want to draw Jory's attention to the southeast, where the ...... Gulenhar.

In the eyes of others, Jory has been in a trance since a few days ago, sometimes his eyes lose focus, and sometimes he loses his mind while walking, and he freezes in place.

In fact, Jory has been starting to suspect something lately.

"Listen to me, brother, it's not a good thing to be obsessed with rumors on the cusp of the wind and waves, at least until you have enough strength, chasing those illusory fame will kill you, but it will make someone else's fame kill."

It's just that Qiao Li didn't listen to Xu Lihui's helpless words, he rubbed his forehead, and looked up at Gulunhar.

He had seriously thought about saving an elf boy who had fought side by side with him, but at that time, it was difficult for him to protect himself, and it was even more difficult to save others.

But now......

Qiao Li didn't listen to Xu Lihui's words at all, and his heart was inexplicably throbbing and guiding, which made him constantly think of the simple-minded young man who couldn't hide his words. On that day, he saw Lear in a cage from the first commission of the soul contract, and it was also on that day that Jory wanted to rescue him.

Unfortunately, at that time, Jory was still hesitant, because even he himself could not see any hope for the future.

Huo Nan, Xu Lihui, Johnson, Haresha, what is the bond between them? Or, as Johnson said, maybe someone will betray me, but until that day comes, they will be my worthy friends.

Through the four of them, Jory saw things he hadn't seen before. Now Jory has understood some important things, the strongest strength is the power of the heart, first of all, to believe in his own ability, willing to get the fruit with his own hands without knowing the hardships of paying blood and sweat, the dangers and obstacles of the road ahead, no longer use the mind to calculate, thinking about how to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, but use their own strength, personally cut all the thorns in the road ahead.

Lear......

Even today, Jory still hasn't forgotten the vow he made in his heart, even if the oath he made at that time seemed silly and naïve. But if even the vows you made to yourself are abandoned by yourself, it will be a dead knot that can never be untied in the strength of the heart.

Exhaling, Jory rubbed his hands and whispered to himself: "I said I would save you, you just wash it and wait for me to take you back to the Republic and be the head of my zoo!" ”

Once, he said that he wanted to take Lear back to his hometown.

Today, he still hasn't forgotten. (To be continued......)
