Chapter 496: The Black Lion at the Door

"In other words, you two casually took on a task at the Wizards' Guild, but found out that it was probably a demon fishing? You two are poor little fish?" asked the head teacher calmly while sitting on the big sofa in his house, roasting the fire, drinking tea.

On this side of the Western Continent, there are several demonic attacks on humans every year, and she has personally encountered one of them, so it is not strange to see more.

Nicole took out the gold coin that Mrs. Noah had given herself and handed it to the head teacher.

"I do feel a subtle demonic power on it!" the head teacher said as he carefully examined the gold coin in his hand.

"She's not going to just eat us!" Jessica said with tears in her eyes.

The head teacher touched Jessica's hair and said very calmly: "Don't worry! Generally speaking, demons will not directly attack humans, because a small number of demons who directly eat people are unexpected, and other demons will not get any benefits from humans! You know, most demons want your soul!"

Hearing the head teacher say this, Jessica's face turned even paler.

"These demons will tempt you to sign a contract first, and if you complete the contract, it will be of great benefit to the demon. But if you break the contract, the demon will take advantage of the situation to eat some of your soul! This is what they have always done! It hasn't changed for thousands of years!" The head teacher said, "Take out your power of attorney and I'll take a look!"

Jessica hurriedly took out the power of attorney and put it in the hands of the head teacher.

When the three girls saw it, their faces changed in unison, because the power of attorney was completely different from the original appearance, and this piece of paper had changed from the initial appearance to a demonic contract.

Blood-red paper with black text engraved with various symbols on the edges.

"Don't think about it, you've been decisively attacked!, which of you signed a contract with the demon?" asked the head teacher.

Nicole held up her hand and said, "It's me!"

"Try to get the demon's dog back, or the demon will eat your soul!" said the head teacher helplessly.

Nicole pinched her chin and said, "Sounds interesting!"

The head teacher jumped up angrily and hammered Nicole's head hard: "Is it interesting? Do you know that if you don't find this dog within the specified time, no matter how far you escape to the ends of the earth, the devil can easily find you, chew your soul like a biscuit, and swallow it in your stomach!"

Nicole held her head and read the power of attorney again.

"Find Lady Noah's dog and bring it to Lady Noah's villa!"

Nicole suddenly laughs as she discovers a huge hole in the contract.

"Thank you, teacher, we're going to look for the dog! It's not like we've never seen a demon!" Nicole happily took Jessica out into the street.

The head teacher exhaled helplessly: "This little bastard!"

In the end, she still chose to contact her boss, that is, Kenya!

......

On the other hand, Nicole is very puzzled, stumbling like a headless fly, but finding a dog in the Empire of the Undead Bird, a metropolis of tens of millions of people, is almost as difficult as finding a needle in a haystack!

"Jessica, what can you do?" asked Nicole.

Jessica sighed and took out a fist-sized crystal ball from her bag: "I taught myself divination back then, but I didn't expect it to come in handy at this time!"

Nicole looked at Jessica with a strange face, and Nicole always maintained a skeptical attitude towards divination.

I saw Jessica clear out a small piece of snow, put the crystal ball in the center, and took out a little spice from her backpack, and needed a little blood, but the two little girls were afraid of pain, so they could only use chicken blood instead!

A divination is about to begin.

Just listen to Jessica chanting the incantation and dancing at the same time, thanks to the fact that this is in a small alley, if it is on the street, it will definitely attract a large number of onlookers.

Suddenly, Jessica threw the spices in her hand into the air, and the cold wind fluttered them.

The crystal ball, which was originally transparent, suddenly turned black.

Little Nicole was shocked, there was a play, but she didn't expect Jessica to really know a little bit of divination.

The angle of view inside the crystal ball gradually widens, and finally a large black wolfdog appears, which is very important news, that is, the dog is still alive!

Immediately afterwards, a white light fell from the sky, black, and was soon dyed into a snow-white, and a hand was faintly seen holding the big wolf dog, and then the picture shook violently, and finally disappeared completely.

But little Nicole was very excited, because at the moment when the picture shook violently, she saw a fishing boat, that is, the big black dog must be on the beach, as for the hand......

The performance is so obscure, even Nicole and Jessica don't understand what it is!

"Jessica, you hurry home, you don't have any combat power, if you get hurt, it's not good, I'm going to blame myself for the rest of my life!" Nicole said.

But Jessica is still very hesitant, Nicole is the same age as her, she can't bear to let Nicole go to the beach alone!

"Don't worry!As an alchemist, I know a little bit of fire control, although it's not magic, but I also have a little bit of combat power, not to mention, I still have a lot of potions to help you, and I won't be holding back!" Jessica said firmly.

Nicole happily clasped Jessica's neck: "Good Ji You, for a lifetime!"

Jessica's face turned red: "Don't talk nonsense! Hurry up! This demon may be eyeing us from a corner at this time!"

The two girls, who paid for a carriage, came to the beach.

By this time, large swaths of the sea have frozen over, and the temperature is even colder.

But what puzzled the two little girls was that there was ice all around, and they didn't see the boat at all.

"What's going on? There's not a single boat? Aren't all the clues broken?" Jessica said, wiping the sweat from her forehead.

Don't look at the outside dozens of degrees below zero, but the forehead under the fur hat is covered with sweat!

The two girls walked around the neighborhood and found nothing but a small wooden hut built by a fisherman by the sea!

At this moment, there was a burst of shouting from behind.

The two girls looked back and saw that it was a male adventurer, probably in his thirties!

"Hurry home, those little girls, it's very dangerous here!" cried the adventurer.

Snow elves can be around at any time.

Nicole put on a sad look: "This kind uncle, someone's dog is lost, can you help someone find it?" I'm willing to pay you two silver coins, which I have saved with all my hard work!"

Jessica covered her face, she really wanted to pull out her eyes now, who is this cute little girl? Give me back my roommate who didn't pay for her life!

When the adventurer saw Nicole's cute appearance, he couldn't help but feel compassion, but he was burdened with a very important task......

At this time, five or six adventurers came over one after another, both men and women!

"What are you rubbing?" said a woman, a little impatiently, their adventurer team was tasked with finding out the location of the snow elves, but so far, there were no clues at all, and if they continued like this, they might not even get a commission.

The male adventurer said helplessly: "Little sister, you better hurry up! It's very dangerous here! It's just a dog!"

Jessica was about to say something, when suddenly Nicole grabbed Jessica's sleeve and said, "Boat, we found it!"

Jessica was stunned, the vast sea, where did the ship come from?

Seeing Nicole pointing to the door of the cabin, Jessica was stunned, and saw a wind chime hanging at the door of the cabin, which swayed back and forth under the impact of the cold wind, making a piercing bell.

And the ornament on the wind chime is exactly what a ship looks like.

It's exactly the same as the prophecy you see in the crystal ball!

"Great!" Jessica yelled and rushed to the cabin, but alas, there was nothing but scratches!

"I mean, this stupid dog won't be stewed!" said Nicole impatiently.

Why don't you have a showdown with the demon yourself, and then go over?

Peek-a-boo is not fun at all!

A few adventurers also walked in, after all, the wind outside was too cold, and a few of them couldn't bear it.

One of the slightly fat women looked at the scratches in the room, frowned, gently stroked the wooden board full of scratches, and asked in a low voice: "Little sister, are you sure you lost a dog? Such a big claw, at least a leopard-level beast, and depending on the situation, it has also fought with other things!"

Jessica and Nicole glanced at each other, and both saw the confusion in each other's eyes.

"And the mark in the doorway, apparently something was pulling it from behind! It grabbed the ground with its claws, but it didn't do anything!" said the fat woman.

"You mean there's a beast around here? This is the official fishing ground of the Immortal Empire......" said one adventurer.

The fat woman said in a deep voice: "It doesn't have to be a beast, maybe it's a human ......."

Nicole was annoyed and very unhappy!

"So it's likely that my dog has been taken away?" Nicole said.

The fat woman said: "This is just the best result, maybe it has been cooked and eaten! You know, this ghost weather, what a happy thing it is to eat a fragrant dog meat!"

The woman drooled as she spoke, and as soon as she looked at little Nicole, she saw that little Nicole was drooling with her!

Little Nicole took Jessica: "Let's go, this place is useless!"

Then the two girls were about to leave, but Nicole had just opened the door, and in less than a second, she slammed the door shut, and at the same time pressed her back against the door!

Seeing the other people's eyes on her, Nicole smiled very reluctantly.

"I'm sorry, I seem to be hallucinating, any of you can help me see, there seems to be a lion outside!" said Nicole.

Several adventurers all laughed, this little girl is really interesting, most of them dare not go out, they want to stay here for a while!

At first, the male adventurer came to little Nicole's side, opened the door, and then slammed the door shut in the next second.

I saw him pale and said, "I seem to be hallucinating, I also see a lion, black!"

The others were stunned, and the fat woman looked out through the window and saw a huge black dog lying on the door licking its paws.

It's as if the people in the room are the luncheon meat in the can, knowing that when you open the door, everyone is its lunch.

"Little girl, don't tell me that you lost this dog! You can do it yourself!" said the fat woman, pale.

Nicole found that everyone's eyes were on her face, including Jessica, and could only say with difficulty, "I'll try!"
