It's been three days since Lilith's trail was lost. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

The Northern Regions are now under absolute martial law.

Through a guard who didn't know the importance of the matter, the news of the appearance of the Great Demon in the city spread. In just three days, it spread throughout the Northern Regions.

For more than fifty years, the people of the Northern Regions have been at peace for too long, and many of them may not have seen the shadow of a true demon since they were born. They simply knew that there was something that could threaten their lives, blocked from the other side of the wall.

Although it is only separated by a wall, it is as far away as the horizon.

It has nothing to do with them at all.

But now, the rumored demon has appeared!

It appeared in the city without warning, and may have passed by quietly even while it was asleep.

So, after a moment of precipitation, a huge panic spread.

All of a sudden, the entire Northern Regions City was in turmoil, and people were panicked. At the same time, some lawbreakers took advantage of the chaos to rise up, either real or false, in the name of the devil and the Black Balance Society, to cause chaos everywhere, stirring the whole pot of boiling water to the ground more and more turbid.

If it weren't for the strong order of the Grand Duke, who united many nobles and gathered the 12 high-ranking people in the entire northern region to directly suppress and implement military management, I am afraid that this city would have been paralyzed.

But even so, the death toll in the city is still skyrocketing, and the great demon who is the culprit seems to have evaporated from the world, and there is no trace of it for a long time.

......

With the notes in his hand, Ian sat in his room, his head on his lean, and couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

Since that day, Seran, who has seen the strength of the Great Demon, has dissuaded the rest of the group. She knew how important it was, and that wasn't something they could meddle in. And the next day, the news of the Great Demon leaked, the academy was under martial law, and the unwilling people had to stay honest.

So, during these three days, Ian began to search for the other party's traces every night, although he could not find any traces, but through the information obtained from Wendy, at least one thing, he was sure.

Lilith must still be alive, and the Pomsedevil is still under her control.

It's a pity that Ian really can't say whether this is good or bad.

For the Northern Regions, a simple Great Demon is not terrifying. If it gets out of control, it will act on instinct and attack nearby humans, inflicting explosive casualties, before it is quickly spotted and slaughtered......

But if it were still in Lilith's control, it would have avoided such a massive number of casualties, but it would undoubtedly be more dangerous in the long run.

Thinking of this, Ian threw the note on the table, put his hands on his forehead, and rubbed his temples vigorously.

He began to worry about something else......

"Hell, how can there be such a coincidence in this world. ”

The Downtown Academy had been closed, and Ian was glad that he could make the most of the daylight and find Lilith's trail as soon as possible. But three days ago, when he went out under the guise of Alvin, that bastard happened to visit his house.

He still remembered the strange smile that greeted his mother when he dragged himself home three nights ago, full of exhaustion.

Since that day, he has been grounded.

Of course, Ian protested against his mother's decision.

But even though he was barely among the existence of the Holy Realm, he had to retreat in the face of his mother's tearful eyes.

Even if he knew that the other party was actually pretending!

"I didn't expect me to have such a day......"

Thinking that his mother would come in from time to time to "round the room", he sighed helplessly, and looked through the window of his room at the tallest castle in the upper city.

He knew that there was a dark-haired girl there who was enjoying the same treatment as himself at the moment......

It's ridiculous to say.

A sword saint, a person who can barely be called a sword saint, but because of his age, he was locked in the house by his parents, and he could only sneak out at night and run out like a thief......

"Lord Most High willing. Boredomed, Ian rolled his eyes and began to pray, "For the sake of my first 'sincere prayer', you may as well send a messenger to save me." ”

That being said, Ian himself knew how casual he was in this prayer. Sometimes, however, things turn out so wonderfully that it is as if a being really heard his voice.

"Ian!"

As soon as his words fell, his mother cried out downstairs, "Alvin has come looking for you!"

Hearing this shout, Ian paused.

"I'll go, isn't it......"

He hurriedly got up and walked downstairs, and as soon as he pushed open the door leading to the front desk of the pharmacy, he saw the "messenger of the Most High Lord".

"Ian, I've heard you're grounded. At the sight of Ian, a playful smile appeared on the "messenger's" face.

The corners of Ian's mouth twitched suddenly, he strode forward, grabbed the other party's back collar casually, and after saying hello to his mother, he dragged him directly upstairs.

"Say, what are you doing with me at this time?" Ian asked as he sat down and crossed his hands without greeting the other party.

Alvin didn't mind seeing this, he straightened out some of his wrinkled clothes, pulled out a chair and sat down: "Actually, it's fine." ”

"Lying. ”

Ian immediately pouted, "When you're fine, you never run to my house." ”

"I said, can't I just come to see you?" Alvin feigned a wry smile.

"No way. Ian didn't think about it, and just blurted it out.

"I'm so sad when you say that. Recently, there have been a lot of troublesome things in the Chamber of Commerce, and I came to you as soon as I dealt with them. ”

"Are you sure, it wasn't your father who was dealing with that?" Ian rolled his eyes at the loss friend's act of smearing gold on his face.

"Okay, okay. Seeing that the other party had discovered the truth so quickly, Alvin nodded helplessly, and then took it a little seriously.

"Ian, where did you go three nights ago?"

"Why are you asking this?" Ian frowned at the question.

"I want information on that big demon!"

Alvin suddenly looked up at Ian with a serious expression.

"Ian, don't tell me you don't. I know you've been secretly tracking this matter, and the news of the Great Demon came out three nights ago, and that day, in my name, you went somewhere?"

"I don't believe it's a coincidence, the reason why this news came out must be related to you. ”

"Why, you'll want to know this. Ian raised an eyebrow, not surprised that his friend had guessed it. It's just that this is a figure who is a wise protector, how could he suddenly be interested in this matter.

Seeing that Ian did not deny it, Alvin suddenly showed a smile, in fact, although he was sure that the other party was related to this matter, he still had some gambling speculation about whether Ian really knew the relevant information.

"Don't worry, I'm not going to trouble the other party. ”

"It's just that, instead of being like a mediocre person who is at a loss about the crisis he may encounter, it is better to investigate in advance so that he can better prevent it. ”

"After all, known dangers are better guarded against than unknown ones. And knowing the characteristics of the other party, the spies under my own command can help a little bit and search some places that the guards can't search. ”

"Your own spies?" Ianton was surprised, although he had always known that his friend was well-informed, he really didn't expect that Alvin actually had his own spies under his hands.

Seeing a flash of surprise in his best friend's eyes, Alvin was slightly stunned, and then showed an extremely hateful smile.

"Ian, have you forgotten?" he straightened out his shirt in great difficulty, and then said as usual, "As the future heir of the Platinum Chamber of Commerce, at least in Downtown, I am a rich man!"
