Chapter XXVIII
"Absolutely, absolutely, a fairy!"
In Suzaku City, a young man leaned on the dining table with one hand, muttering something unwillingly. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
This person was the young man who had been bewitched by the pink light of the butterfly rain in the inn the day before, and when he woke up again, he found himself lying on the floor of the room, not only with exaggerated and strange movements, but also drooling all over the place, and even stained his own acting name next to his head.
Such a scene made him wake up in a daze, and then remembered the sudden flash of pink light before he lost consciousness.
At that moment, a thought suddenly came to the young man's heart.
He met the legendary fairy!
After repeated meetings, this idea became more and more firm in his heart, and finally he simply jumped up from the ground, shouted all the way downstairs, and told his experience.
Seeing the lively nature made many bored diners turn their attention to him, but after listening to his remarks about fairies, they all showed mocking and even sympathetic eyes, and no one believed his experience.
This made the young people very angry.
"How can such a beautiful pink glow not be a fairy!......? If not, then it's the Beast Demon King!"
He didn't notice that the expression of hatred on his face attracted the attention of a man in gray with a cloak at a nearby table.
"Huh?"
A shadow interrupted the youth's memories.
At some point, the man in gray suddenly stood next to the young man's table.
The cloak was raised slightly, and two blue eyes shot on the young man's face.
"Are you talking about brute beasts true?"
The young man was stunned for a moment, and then reacted to the other party's meaning, so he denied it without thinking: "What kind of brute beast, what I saw, it is definitely a fairy!"
The man in gray looked at the young man and counted his breaths, then stretched out his hand and pointed to the stool next to the table: "Can you sit?"
The young man hesitated for a moment, but did not refuse.
Pulling the chair into his seat, the man in gray lifted his cloak up, and the young man's eyes immediately reflected the blue hair hanging down his forehead.
Luan madness!
"Tell me about the fairy you saw......"
......
Unspecified Inn.
Inside Qiao Ximing's house, Butterfly Rain was attached to the wall like a butterfly, closing his eyes and recuperating, his body curled up into a sphere and undulating slightly.
"It's really, it's a discord......"
Shaking his head, Qiao Ximing looked out the window.
Another day is the first day of the lunar month, that is, the start of the civil and military performances, the day when the four holy cities of the civil and military towers are opened, at that time, the performers of the holy cities will rush in, in these four magical holy towers that seem to be born out of thin air, seeking the opportunity to become stronger.
And Qiao Ximing, he is also looking for some kind of opportunity.
Took out an object from his arms, it was a blank talent post, after the failure of the plan to find Shae Dance, there was an extra one of the two blank posters in his hand, and after a few thoughts, there was no suitable person to use.
"Gai Su was sent to the White Tiger Domain by Demon Nine...... Such a high-profile invasion of the human realm doesn't seem to be the style of Demon Jiu, right?"
The sound that seemed to be muttering penetrated into the ears of Butterfly Yu, who closed its eyes, made its eyebrows frown slightly, opened its eyes and looked at Qiao Ximing coldly, and explained: "The Lord has no interest in your human territory, but he is just forced to do so. ”
"Forced to do something?" Qiao Ximing's eyes narrowed: "Interesting! There must not be many guys who can make Demon Jiu have to do things as a last resort, right?"
Dieyu snorted lightly and did not answer.
"Eight Beasts...... In the past three months, the tide of barbarian beasts seems to have become more and more violent, and even several second-level towns and cities have been destroyed, but in fact, there is no intention of impacting the first-level defense line of the empire...... It's intriguing!"
As if he couldn't stand Qiao Ximing's deliberate tone, Butterfly Yu's delicate body fell from the wall and turned into a human form in the pink light.
"If you want to know anything, just ask!"
Qiao Ximing raised his eyebrows slightly: "Oh, will Demon Nine agree?"
"The Lord said that if you test me, you will definitely find clues, so it is better to tell you directly!"
"Hehe, so casual and uninhibited, it's really like its style. Qiao Ximing shrugged with a smile: "So, please tell me, why did Demon Nine send Gaisuo to the White Tiger Domain?"
"Because the Barbarian Alliance has issued an order, all barbarians above the beast king must complete the task of aggression in the human territory, and capture the second and third level of human towns and cities as much as possible, but must not cross the first-level defense line of human beings. ”
"Why is that you want to invade without crossing the first line of defense?"
Dieyu was expressionless: "Because of the barbarian agreement two hundred years ago!"
"Human-barbarian agreement?"
As if grasping some clue, Qiao Ximing's brows furrowed deeply.
"Two hundred years ago, in the Second Great War of the Barbarians, you humans repelled the attack of the barbarian beasts, and established an imperial defense line with one capital, two mansions and four cities as the core, and successfully occupied a place on the barbarian stars. After having the right to speak, the Great Emperor of your human race found the eight emperors of the Eight Beast Clans and jointly signed a two-hundred-year-long human barbarian agreement, which included the clause that you must not invade the first-level defense line of the Human Empire during the term of the agreement. For the sake of this agreement, this invasion order is limited to the first level of human defense, that is, all of your second- and third-level towns and cities!"
seemed to find this topic very interesting, and Chi You's consciousness actually popped up in Qiao Ximing's body again.
"Boom, the aborigines on this planet are really interesting, so unhesitating to carry out acts of aggression, but abide by a paper agreement is just a small fight, it's really ...... Virtuous!"
The voice that was afraid that the world would not be chaotic, Dieyu naturally couldn't hear it, but Qiao Ximing shook his head secretly.
"Actually, I've always been curious, with the power of the Eight Beasts of the Barbarian Beasts, it stands to reason that it is impossible to be at peace with humans for two hundred years, and it seems that the reason comes from this so-called human-barbarian agreement...... However, a single agreement will keep the brute beast outside the empire's first-level defense line, and there should be something else in it, right?"
Dieyu's eyes flashed slightly, and he shook his head and said: "I don't know the specific content, I only know that this agreement will end in nearly a year." ”
"One year...... The time for civil and military performances is exactly one year......"
Qiao Ximing touched his chin and thought for a long time, and muttered: "The brute beasts are so powerful, but because of the agreement, they can be said to have connived at humans for two hundred years, what are they waiting for?"
Butterfly rain is silent.
"I remember that Demon Nine said that there doesn't seem to be harmony within your Eight Beast Clans, right?"
After hesitating for a moment, Dieyu did not deny it, but nodded.
"But from what you just said, you mentioned the existence of the Barbarian Alliance...... Since there is no harmony, the reason for the establishment of the alliance should be the human race, right? More than 200 years ago, the human race descended on the barbarian star, changing the situation of the eight races on the planet to compete with each other, and it stands to reason that there is nothing unreasonable about unanimity to the outside world, but it is ...... to be so restrained."
Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed through his mind.
"Three hundred years of reincarnation!"
Butterfly rain shook.
Qiao Ximing's eyes lit up: "Demon Jiu once mentioned about the three-hundred-year reincarnation, is the barbarian's behavior related to this? Also, what does the three-hundred-year reincarnation refer to?"
The thin eyebrows tightened, Dieyu's face became a little stiff, and he replied coldly: "The lord said that you can ask questions, but the scope is limited, and there are some things that you can't know now!"
There was a brief silence, and the temperature in the room seemed to drop by a few degrees.
Qiao Ximing smiled suddenly.
"It's okay, then skip the question, you tell me, what is Gesso's mission?"
Butterfly Rain's expression slowed down a little, and replied: "The mission of the alliance is mandatory, and the Lord must contribute his strength in the invasion event, and Gaisso is the force sent by the Lord, both to perfunctory the constraints of the Alliance, and at the same time, to ......"
“...... Save humanity!"
......
White Tiger Domain, the ruins of Venus Town.
The once prosperous town and market have become ruins, and all kinds of hideous and strange beasts can be seen everywhere, turning this place into a hell for mankind.
In the center of the ruins, six huge brute beasts were surrounded together, and the aura on each body was extremely powerful, and they were all beast generals, including the gold and silver bird beast generals, blue flame beast generals and demon clan beast generals who appeared in the strategy battle, and among them, there were demon beasts with more powerful breaths, which were called Demon Venerable Amber by Wei Siran, and Gaisuo who was huge and semi-potential in the land.
In the dark body of the Demon Venerable, his eyes were firmly fixed on this Gaisuo, and his cold voice was like an evil yin wind blowing out of hell.
"Demon Lord, what the hell does it want to do?"
High-spirited!
Gaiso's roar was a little unassuming, and intuitively, it felt that the demon beast in front of it was incomparably powerful, so powerful that it didn't dare to make the slightest move.
At this moment, a flirtatious voice came from the south.
"Demon Venerable, are you okay to do, and you're so bored that you bully my men?"
The black gas turned into shape, and the bewitching smile made the faces of the six beast generals change, because before that, they had not sensed the slightest movement of other creatures!
The one who came was Demon Nine!
Demon Venerable Amber's gaze raised, and the gloomy aura became even stronger: "You still dare to come!"
Demon Nine smiled evilly: "It's funny, why don't I dare to come? It's you, it's better to let my subordinates go." ”
"You're threatening me?"
"Don't you dare, how dare I threaten you? It's just that you arrested it for no reason, it doesn't seem good?"
"It's trying to break humanity's first-tier defense, and it's already violating the protocol!"
A curious gaze suddenly appeared on Demon Jiu's face: "It's really unbelievable, when did you Demon Venerable Amber actually care about the agreement of the human race?"
"You!"
With a smile, Demon Nine interrupted the other party's angry words: "As far as I know, Gaisso hasn't really broken through the human defenses, right? As long as there is no conflict, it shouldn't be considered a violation of the rules of the agreement." ”
Behind the silence is the faint anger of the demon king and demon Venerable Amber.
However, a moment later, a gust of yin wind blew over Gaiso, and it instantly swam out of the encirclement of the six major beast kings and stopped at the feet of Demon Nine.
"I let it go this time, but, Demon Lord, you remember for me, don't play your cleverness anymore, the human and brute agreement is not something you can break!"
Demon Jiu nodded indifferently: "Got it." If it's okay, I'll go first!"
After turning and taking two steps, it turned its head again and smiled evilly.
"By the way, please help me say hello to the Demon Emperor...... My brother!"
