With the help of the veteran warrior, they were able to purge the city of spies, and Salian felt that he could move on to the next step.

The next night, Salian and Aeknos quietly left the White Jade City, relying on the information obtained from the kidnappers' heads, and successfully found the hiding place of the Garros demons, in the forest below the cliff where the city was located.

With the keen sense of the Terror Knight, he easily detected enemies in this area who did not have strict covert measures, because their mana fluctuations were too similar to those of the kidnappers.

"Unfortunately, I don't have the ability to stealth, and I really want to have a ninja or assassin as my subordinate. "Salian envied his friend Sebastian every time he scouted on his own.

That being said, he had to do what he had to do, and he told Aiknos to hide a little further away from the enemy camp, while he gathered all his breath and touched it closer. According to the method of investigation he learned from the book, when he was in the dark, facing the direction of the fire, he would try to close his eyes so that his eyes would not reflect the light.

The lurking Duke of New Mark saw that the fire was burning in the enemy camp, the ground was littered with weapons piled up, and some black-faced demons were lying drunkenly on the ground with wine bottles, all of them gathered around several tents, and they seemed to be unsuspecting on the whole.

"Even though the main force of White Jade City is not trying to sneak attack here, it shouldn't be so big! The Garros Demon who lives in the swamp really can't make a big deal. ”

Returning to Eknos, Salian immediately ordered the Beast Girl to transform, and he was going to take the other party by surprise. A brutal massacre ensued. The hybrid beast of the White Dragon and Behemoth roared down from the sky and bravely broke into the camp of the Garros Demon, crashing into everything in her path, whether it be bones, tents, or trees, and the freezing breath from her mouth made everything more vulnerable.

"How can there be such a monster here, give it to me, kill it!"

A leader-like demon in ornate armor rushed out of the tent, shouting for his men to attack. However, his voice died out in an instant, and a long sword that shimmered with crimson light shredded the body of the wretched demon. The rest of the demons could only hear the "humming" sound of the arcane power rubbing against the air, and in the darkness, this terrifying beam sword was still harvesting life one after another.

Half an hour later, there were no more living creatures in front of Salian and Eknos. Duke New Mark said with a little regret.

"Oh, I was so excited to kill me just now, I didn't have a chance to live, so I had to look for their corpses. ”

"Actually, when I was studying at the Seven Towers Magic Academy, I heard the history professor say that you Tutonians have the blood of demons, and I didn't believe it at first! Eknos looked at the mangled corpses and said to Salian with trepidation that she was the descendant of the evil White Dragon and the cruel Behemoth!

"Haha, there is such a statement, but it is just some mythical nonsense. ”

Salian, whose purple eyes faded, asked curiously. Because there are a few legends of demons who came from the demon plane to the main material plane through marriage with humans, it is said that the demons have amazing willpower, and their eyes are purple, and the Tutonians have super willpower, and the practice of terrifying secret techniques will make their eyes radiate purple, which will naturally cause people to think, but there is no solid evidence. Time seems to have preceded the conquest of the Tudonians by Trajan, the great emperor of the ancient empire.

"No, after the joint research of the History Department and the Biology Department of the Seven Towers Magic Academy, they found that this is not groundless. Relying on the current advanced genetic engineering, using the comparison of life maps, it is already possible to judge the kinship between the two. The subjects of the experiment include Jia Luonai, and it is now certain that there are indeed demon genes in her paternal lineage. ”

"It's an incredible result, when will I go to test my genes, maybe I'm really a descendant of some demon king!haha!"

"Who knows, I'm not your enemy. ”

Salian didn't stop working while chatting with the Beast Girl who had reverted to human form, turning over several corpses that were still intact, but unfortunately he didn't find anything, and began to look for clues in the tent again, and through careful searching, he finally found a brown briefcase, which contained several parchment documents written in secret scripts that he could not recognize.

"Okay! This should be useful to take home. "Although he himself can't understand it, there are always people among the demons in White Jade City who understand, right?

When Salian and Eknos returned to the City Lord's Mansion, Duke New Mark was surprised to find that the sisters Hekia Muse and Jolia Path had also appeared, and it turned out that they had immediately returned to White Jade City with the portable magic teleportation scroll they had prepared in advance after receiving a special distress message from Miss Tiate. They had learned what had happened from their sister, much to Salian's surprise.

The female general, Hekiamus, said in a haughty tone to the human who actually had bad intentions: "Hehe, you ended up in the palm of my hand!"

Salian replied with a complacent face, "I haven't seen you for many days, dear Miss Hekiamus, you are now more radiant, and not only that your strength has also increased. I don't know if this is your city, so please forgive me. ”

"Although human beings are a hypocritical race, they are indeed skilled in speaking. Hmph, it's not hopeless if you want to get the treasure, as long as you join my clan, the treasure will naturally be yours. ”

"Oh, I'll excuse you. I still have a lot of work to do on the main material plane!"

"Then it's not so easy to leave, at least you have to defeat me!" The beautiful female general held a shuttle dart high, and it seemed that she would not give up.

At this time, Garona, who was standing with them, said.

"Salian, did you get anything out of the city?"

"Well, just now we destroyed the camp of the Garros Demon outside the city, and got some things from it, you may be interested, anyway, now that the enemy is current, we are still in the same camp, right?"

Salian took out the parchment and handed it to Hekia Muse, who was a little puzzled, of course a warrior like her could not read it, and handed it to Jolia Pas, who had been watching the show since the moment before, and she smiled and took the parchment and looked at it carefully.

"Oh, this is the highest-level ciphertext of the Garros Demons, and I had my hands on their codebook by chance, a few years ago. It's amazing how many guys haven't changed the format in a long time!"

"Jolia Path is the wise man of our Ainozm clan, and nothing can trouble her. The return of the two older sisters also made Tiathers a lot more active, she added excitedly on the side.

But even if she mastered all the encodings, it would still take Jolia Path a little time to decipher the advanced codes, and Hekia Muse invited everyone to the main hall to enjoy the traditional welcome dance of the White Jade City, a war dance performed by male Sindaro demons smeared with olive oil, a classical art that had been handed down from Alexander's crusades, and Garona slashed it with relish, but Salian couldn't look directly at the shiny muscular men.

Thankfully, Miss Jolia Path was smart and wise, and it didn't take long for her to crack the cipher of the Garros Demon. And the stakes were so high that she immediately convened a meeting of emergency countermeasures.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the ciphertext on the parchment shows that Salian is only a leading detachment of the Garros Demon that he destroyed at night, and their real purpose is not only our treasure, but also the entire White Jade City! The leader of the Garros Demon plans to take this place when the Kandalak army sets out, and the search for treasures and the kidnapping of Tiatheris are a small part of the plan, and their main force has been assembled and will come soon! Alas, the return of the two of us has actually violated military discipline, and now it is impossible for Kandalak to send reinforcements. ”

The demon's military discipline is strict, and the crisis is imminent. Salian also roughly understood the current situation, and he offered his opinion.

"Then capture the thief and capture the king first, and let's go and kill the leader of the Garros demon! ”

Hearing Salian's proposal, Hekiamus was unimpressed.

"Well, it's a solution, but it's easier said than done, the Black Blood Swamp is a famous dangerous place in the abyss, and without a guide who is familiar with the terrain to lead the way, it is impossible for us to safely cross the outer area and reach the core area. ”

"Sister, this is no longer a problem, our subordinate Dubu demons have recently successfully developed a new war tool, called 'Mobile Armor', which can act in various special and complex road conditions. Should be able to help us get through the swamp. Jolia Path's words turned the tide again.

"Oh, is this thing reliable?"

"Of course, it has been tested many times, and it can move normally in swampy areas with a depth of no more than one meter, not to mention soft roads such as deserts, mud floors, sand and gravel!"

"Great! Then the first problem is solved. The second question is the question of who will be arranged? We need a few people with lofty ideals who are both wise and brave and have great courage. Hekiamus continued.

"Hehe, I'm an intelligent person, and this kind of physical activity is not for me. For some reason, Jolia Pass, who had just made the suggestion, was the first to refuse.

"But you need to manipulate the new tools of action!"

"I can teach one of you, it's not that hard to learn. ”

Seeing this, Salian knew it was time for him to speak.

"Miss Hekia Muse, I think the three of us can try it, you have seen the strength of Miss Garonay and Miss Eknos in the dungeon, and we can learn to operate that new type of transport. ”

"Huhu, I see. As long as you can succeed, your previous deception of us can be written off, and two treasures can also be given to you. But when it's over, I have three more things for you to do. ”

"Yes, I promise you!"

"Don't let me down. ”

In the end, it was decided that Hekiamus would carry out the operation in collaboration with Salian, Garonay, and Eknos.
