Out of the city is a primitive landscape, there are not many humans in this world, so many places have not been developed, even if it is close to the county seat;

Fresh morning air;

Ser Seta Fanaan Finney was at the front of the line on his tall horses, while the rest of Finney's squadron followed with pennants;

The sun was in the sky, but there was still fog in the forest in the distance, and it was unclear from afar, and one couldn't help but wonder what was hidden inside.

Darkness and the unknown are always the source of fear for the ignorant. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Under the sun, a long shadow was pulled under everyone's feet, which made the whole team seem lonely, and slowly walked forward in the wilderness outside the city.

It's like a black-and-white film about Europe in the 19th century, permeating and lonely.

"Huh~"!

Seta stopped the horses!

It's already some distance from the city, and it's almost noon, and a small stream bends out of a flat field that is a good place to make a fire and cook.

I was ready to eat here before moving on;

The farther away from the city will be, the more dangerous it will be, so feed your belly while it's still safe to prevent possible emergencies in the future!

With this in mind, Seta raised his left hand:

"Stop and rest!"

When Moby heard it, he immediately turned around and shouted:

"Rest in place!"

The whole team stopped, and then sat down according to their squads, and Moby took two steps forward and bowed:

"Your Excellency, do you want lunch?" It was already noon, and it was just the right time for dinner.

"Hmm," Seta nodded, saying:

"If you go any further, you will probably encounter a demon, so let's dine here!"

"Yes, Your Excellency!"

Moby bowed down and returned to say something, when he heard a cheer.

Suddenly everyone moved, making a fire, drawing water, and even some people took off their shoes and socks to catch fish;

These people are all mercenaries, and they may be much more scattered than the regular army, and their combat effectiveness will be weaker, but they are all good at finding food and surviving in the wild.

After Moby arranged things, he returned:

"Your Excellency, it's all arranged"

"Hmm" nodded, and Seta sat down on a rock:

"Moby, you go and call the four of them"

The Scarface mercenary immediately bowed down and said:

"Yes, Your Excellency!"

Not long after, the four squad leaders trotted back with Moby, saluted neatly and said:

"Good afternoon, Your Excellency!"

Seta sat on top of the big rock and pointed around casually in the breeze:

"Sit down too"

"Now let's arrange the mission!"

"Yes, Your Excellency!" Hearing that there was a task arrangement, several squad leaders did not dare to delay, or squatted or stand;

Seta coughed lightly and said:

"Our mission is to investigate the anomaly west of Sunrise City, and the general plan of the march is to keep heading west" There's nothing to say, that's the mission.

It is estimated that the demon is doing something over there, and it can't be a demon lair, right? Thinking of the demon castle he had seen in Maple Leaf County, Seta felt a slight chill in his heart.

Shaking his head, he looked at several squad leaders and said:

"Wait, the first and second squads will act as scouts, and they will go ahead to reconnoitre"

"Beware of demons," he added, after a pause:

"Don't be impulsive when you encounter a demon, come back immediately and tell you!"

"Yes, Your Excellency!"

Nodding slightly, he reminded him that if he had to die by himself, he wouldn't be able to control it, and then turned to look at the remaining three team leaders:

"You three, just follow me!"

"Yes, Your Excellency!"

More than ten minutes have passed since the task was arranged, and the lunch over there has been prepared;

Because of the time constraints, the food was simple, just dry food and fish soup, and of course Sir Seta Feeney, the highest of rank, was given a grilled fish;

The taste of the food is naturally not very good, but since it is in the wild, it is not too much to ask for;

I saw Mobi come and tell me, saying that he was going to take the people first;

They were scouts, so Seta nodded:

"Go ahead!"

Then another half hour passed;

It felt that the time was almost up, and that it would be pointless to wait any longer, so Seta stood up, walked to the side of the horse, and pressed the saddle lightly before turning over;

Turned around and shouted:

"Let's go!"

"Let's go!" Naturally, the leaders of the various squads called and drove away;

The remaining dozen or so mercenaries were arranged in three rows and quickly marched forward!

There are many woods in the wild, some of which can no longer be described as woods, and it might be more appropriate to describe them as forests, with small patches of forest and small rivers that sometimes mean;

It makes up the scenery outside the sunrise city: raw, undeveloped, deserted!

Passing through a small forest again, when the hooves of the horses were about to step into a new stream;

Seta suddenly raised her left hand and stopped!

His mouth narrowed slightly, looking into the distance:

A mercenary, judging by his dress, should be a member of the scout team he sent out;

The mercenary apparently spotted his companion on this side, and immediately ran towards it;

Soon he knelt at the feet of the war horse:

"Your Excellency, you have found a demon ahead!" he wiped the sweat from his forehead:

"There are ten demons in total!"

"Ten demons?" Seta thought as he rode his horse, but there weren't many of them, and then he asked:

"See the Great Demon? How many are there?"

At this time, the three squad leaders also came over, and they looked at the mercenary kneeling on the ground, wanting to hear if they had found anything in front of them;

The young mercenary was a little nervous, swallowed a mouthful of saliva to get better, and exhaled slightly before saying:

"Yes, there's a big demon!"

"He brought 9 little devils to guard there, and it seems to be patrolling!"

"They're on the edge of the grove ahead!"

Patrols? Maybe they're guarding something, but it's a demon's lair...

Seta shook her head, she didn't know until she had seen it in the past!

Sending the mercenary who reported the message away, Seta turned to several squad leaders and said:

"Let's hurry over and see what these demons are guarding!"

"Yes, Your Excellency!"

It's convenient to have someone to show you the way!

On a small hillside, the mercenary who had just reported the news carefully identified the direction, pointed to a small forest below, and turned back and said:

"Your Excellency, the demon is in the woods below!"

"Captain Moby and Captain Kent are all on the edge of the woods, staring at the demons"

Hearing this, Seta squinted slightly, and a trace of golden light flashed:

Suddenly!

In the woods below the mountain, a gray-black aura emerged, confronting the green aura of the trees themselves, and even out of step with the world around them!

The golden light in his eyes faded, and Seta muttered:

"Is this a demon? an invader from another world!"

Aren't demons supposed to be extraterrestrial creatures?!

Having come to his senses from the vision, he turned over and dismounted after a moment's thought, and commanded:

"Everyone lower their voices, don't be noticed by the demons below!"

A dozen people quietly walked down the hillside to the edge of the woods:

"Who!"

"Captain Moby, it's me!'s Your Excellency!" the mercenary who reported the news stepped forward and whispered;

Suddenly, the grass shook and several mercenaries came out, among them was Moby with Scarface, and he saw Seta hurriedly step forward and half-kneel:

"Your Excellency!"

"Get up, is the devil still there?"

"Yes, in the woods!"

"Take me there"
