Chapter 9 Finding a Research Institute
Leaving the cabin and coming to land, everyone, including Rocky, couldn't help but let out a burst of surprise and exclamation.
Because the scenery in front of him is so beautiful! It was so beautiful that not only Rocky was surprised, but also the guards behind him.
In fact, this is not only the first time that Rocky has returned to land, but also the first time for many of the guards behind him, so these guards are also full of freshness and curiosity about everything they see, just like Rocky.
The place where the float boat landed was right on the outskirts of the forest, so when everyone looked at it, there was a dense forest in front of them, and behind them was an endless grassland, and everything looked beautiful without the slightest sense of dilapidation.
"Don't be deceived by the illusion you see. ”
Just as everyone sighed at the beautiful scenery in front of them, Lilia spoke on the side, only to see that she immediately said to the guards: "The land has long been occupied by demons, so don't be deceived by everything you see, behind these beautiful scenery there may be hidden demons that can tear you apart, so cheer me up!"
Such a reprimand made the guards all sober up, and everyone hurriedly put away their eyes and subconsciously lowered their heads.
I have to say that Lilia still has a very high status in the hearts of these guards, mainly because of her status as a third-level warrior, and unlike these guards who have never seen the world, Lilia has followed Rocky's father to participate in battles many times, not only has experience in leading soldiers, but has also come to the ground several times, it can be said that her understanding of land is far beyond others.
Therefore, even Rocky took her words seriously, and even he hurriedly withdrew his gaze afterwards.
"Bring El here, and then you lead the guards to wait for me here. ”
Restraining his excitement, Rocky said to Lilia beside him that now was indeed not the time to enjoy the view, and he had to get down to business.
Although the land is not as full of holes as imagined, and even the scenery is pleasant, this does not change anything, the land has been occupied by demons is an ironclad fact, in this case, Rocky does not want to delay time, the more time delayed, the greater the possibility that they will encounter demons.
So he planned to take Al to find the institute immediately.
At his orders, Lilia quickly brought Al with her, but did not give him to Rocky.
"I'll go with you. ”
After bringing Al with her, Lilia tells Rocky that she is going to find the institute together.
"No, I can't. ”
But for her request, Rocky refused without even thinking about it.
"I'm higher than you, and I have experience fighting demons!
Unexpectedly, Rocky refused so simply, and Lilia was a little anxious, because the more straightforward Rocky was, the more it showed that he was resolute in this matter.
As a result, Lilia guessed correctly, Rocky was very resolute in this matter, and shook his head directly: "With you guarding here, I can rest assured." ”
"But ......"
"No, but. ”
Rocky didn't intend to continue arguing, and took Al with his hands tied directly from Lilia, and then slowly flew up, carrying Al towards the forest in the distance.
Seeing him fly away like this, Lilia stomped her foot angrily, and then said to the guards behind her: "Everyone is ready to fight! The floating ship is ready to take off at any time, and as soon as the city lord returns, leave immediately!"
"Yes!"
Under her order, the guards immediately took action, after all, these people also knew the danger of land, and if they slackened, they could be killed by the attack of demons, so no one dared to slack off.
............
............
Lilia didn't talk about it for the time being, but at this time, Rocky had already flown into the forest with El in his hand.
"Captain Al, tell me the exact location of the Institute. ”
"My lord, it's too high, I-I can't be sure......"
Al trembled with fear when he was carried through the air by Rocky, but he wasn't lying, he couldn't find the exact location of the institute in the air.
Rocky reacted to this, and then slowly descended and landed in the forest.
The forest is dense, even a little too dense, with green unknown vegetation everywhere that looks like a tropical rainforest.
"My lord, if you follow this direction, you will find the research institute. ”
Landing on the ground, Al breathed a sigh of relief, he was terrified when he was in the air, it was not him who was wearing the Sky Demon armor, but Rocky, if Rocky let go, he would be thrown to his death.
"Are you sure?"
Rocky, who turned around, frowned, for he suddenly felt a pang of worry as he looked in the direction Al was pointing.
It was a strange feeling, it was clear that it was just a forest in front of him, there were no demons, and there were no other threats, but Rocky still had this feeling, and even ...... He's a little scared?!
"My lord, you—you feel it, don't you?"
Just when Rocky's brows were tightened, Al on the side also hurriedly said: "My lord, I also planned to go and see it after I felt that something was wrong, and then I found the research institute." ”
"Oh?"
This piqued Rocky's interest, and he thought about it for a moment, and then asked, "So, is it this feeling that the demon emanates?"
Al said before that he was attacked by a demon after discovering the research institute, so this heart-wrenching feeling is emanating from a demon?
But Al's next answer surprised Rocky, who shook his head again and again: "My lord, the demon doesn't have this ability, I think it may be emitted by some kind of equipment in the research institute, in order to make the demon dare not approach." ”
"Where could there be such equipment, it's really ......"
Al's words made Rocky laugh, where is there such a magical equipment, the demon is not a mosquito, you can do it with a plate of mosquito coils, Al is obviously a myth of the Lost Institute.
So, after shaking his head, Rocky led Al towards the depths of the forest.
The forest was really dense, not only shrubs, but also a lot of other vegetation, and a lame Al made Rocky very slow.
But fortunately, he didn't encounter demons along the way, so although the journey was long, it was safe.
After walking for an unknown amount of time, Rocky stopped, because a corpse, the corpse of a guard, appeared in front of him.
"Your Excellency...... It's ......."
Looking at the corpse lying on the ground, Al said tremblingly, because this guard who had become a corpse was one of the people who was killed by him!
And if you find these guards, it means that the Lost Institute is already nearby!
