Chapter 6: The Ill-Intentioned Hunter
As the night deepened, a crescent moon hung high in the middle of the night.
The whole forest was covered in darkness, and the silence could only be heard except for the sound of the wind blowing the leaves and the sparse chirping of insects.
The dilapidated Demon King City also seemed to be frozen, standing abruptly in the middle of the clearing.
Suddenly, a faint flame the size of a fist lit up in the surrounding forest, slowly approaching the quiet Demon King City.
The Witcher, or adventurer, is more appropriate.
The bonfire was lit and tiptoed towards the Demon King City.
"Is the Demon King really there?"
"Some villagers said they saw the Demon King land near here."
"Actually tying people up at the important ceremony to welcome the arrival of the brave, this demon king has gone too far. The king was furious at this and took it very seriously. ”
"After all, those big names value face. Moreover, losing people in front of a group of brave men will definitely make the brave men doubt the ability of the kingdom, and they must give everyone an explanation. So the money given is also a lot. ”
"Hey, hey. That's the Demon King.,It's not an ordinary monster.,It's a very strong existence.。 Although the bounty is high, can we defeat him? Don't get the money, but give up your life. ”
"Stupid, what were you doing when the union president explained?"
"I'm sleeping. As usual. ”
"Cut, no wonder people call you an idiot. The king has already found someone to identify it, and the demon king is strong on the outside. It's just that the image is terrible and there is no strength. If it's really strong, it won't just rob the brave at all, and it will definitely kill everyone on the spot. ”
"I see, that is, the operation ........"
"It's fat. So we're going to kill the Demon King before the regular army arrives. ”
The adventurers whispered and laughed triumphantly.
The moonlight shining on the rugged face showed the hideous expressions of the adventurers, no matter how they looked like a serious business, more like a sinister and cunning robber.
As the adventurers slowly approached the Demon King City, a dark shadow was also secretly observing them.
After getting the firelight and leaving, the black shadow took the opportunity to sneak into the forest and run to the place where the adventurer stopped to observe the Demon King's City.
Sure enough, there was a horse here, and some food was stored.
The dark shadow saw the horses and food, and the corners of his mouth were curled high.
He was about to untie the reins from the trunk when suddenly someone put a knife on his back.
"Little thief, you actually stole something and stole it on the heads of our adventurers. It's not that I didn't keep up with the big army, but I really let you succeed. ”
After the adventurer who stayed behind finished speaking, he blew the bird spoon.
Soon, the adventurers who had just left returned one after another.
"What's wrong?"
"This guy took the opportunity to steal our stuff."
"Huh? There are thieves in such places...... Slaughter it. I'm still going to get down to business. ”
The adventurer was about to take the knife when the thief burst into laughter.
"It's bad luck. I didn't expect there to be a sparse one. But I advise you to put your things down and get out of here. I don't want your lives. ”
Because of the thief's unusually strange smile, the adventurer's knife failed to fall.
And after all, they are adventurers, the kind of people who must be scolded back as soon as they are ridiculed.
Just as he wanted to say a few cruel words, the thief started talking to himself again, and this time muttering, saying some strange things that he didn't understand.
"Potassium, calcium, sodium, magnesium, zinc, iron, tin, lead, hydrocopper, mercury, silver, platinum, π=3.1415926...... bright moonlight in front of the bed, two pairs of shoes on the ground...... E=MC²...... Come out, my dark dragon, and kill all the unreasonable people who invade the territory of the Demon King. ”
The thief raised his hands and made a stirring sound.
Adventurers were horrified by this strange phenomenon.
Everyone vigilantly distanced themselves from the thief and nervously observed their surroundings.
Unfortunately, it didn't happen.
"This guy is a liar, do him."
The adventurers were about to rush forward to kill the thief when a huge shadow suddenly appeared at the end of the forest.
It was a dragon, at least a 20-meter dragon.
And the dragon opened its mouth and let out a terrible howl.
For a moment, the adventurers felt a fear that went deep into their bones.
"Kill them, my family. Let them see the strength of the cadres of the Demon King Army. ”
And the thief shouted at the right time, reminding the adventurers of the situation they were facing.
"But, damn it, how could you meet the cadres of the Demon King Army?"
"Who, who said that the Demon King is not powerful. The cadres of the Demon King Army are so strong. The Demon King is not an opponent at all. ”
"Withdraw, withdraw."
In line with the principle that heroes do not suffer immediate losses, the adventurers turned around and ran. Horses and goods are out of the way.
The thief looked at the fleeing adventurers and let out a three-part evil laugh.
"Get out, get away, I don't want your dog's life."
The dragon let out a deafening roar again, in line with the thief's warning.
Soon, the adventurers disappeared.
The forest has also returned to calm.
Looking left and right, I realized that the adventurers had run away.
Thief, Li Muran hurriedly tied the reins of the horse.
And the dragon also turned into a red evening dress, with the appearance of a girl with Mianyang horns on her head. The corners of his mouth curled slightly, and he slowly walked to Li Muran's side and high-fived Li Muran in celebration.
"My secretary is amazing. Things are going the way you expected. ”
"So-so. It's not that hard. ”
In fact, when Li Muran proposed to move to the Demon King City, Bella asked Li Muran what to do.
Migration is not a trivial matter after all.
Even if there was no furniture in Bella's Demon King City that had to be taken away, it would still be a hassle to make.
Considering the various realities of this world, and considering the current situation that Bella may have been targeted by the human kingdom, it is even more difficult to migrate.
It is necessary to move quickly, and it is necessary to act immediately to avoid long nights and dreams.
And even if you're in a hurry, some preparation is still necessary before you migrate.
If nothing else, the first thing to consider is where to relocate.
If you're moving, you can't talk about it without figuring out where to move first.
"Does Bella have any good ideas?"
"Sorry, I don't know much about that. I've been hiding here.,It's the first time I've gone out to rob people in the imperial capital.,So I'm not good at location or anything.。 ”
"What a useless crumb king."
"Don't, don't say it so directly, no matter what I say, it's also your boss, give me some mercy. And why do you not respect me at all, even though you are my dependent? ”
Bella, who was ignored by Li Muran, pouted in the open space behind the Demon King City and drew circles with branches.
Bella, the demon king, is not reliable, but unfortunately Li Muran has not been in this world for a long time, and he doesn't know much about this world.
Since there is no goal. Then take one step at a time.
Let's first set the goal of crossing the border. The general direction Bella still knows.
Flee to other human nations to catch your breath and then go again?
The matter of the migration target was just confused.
Then you need to prepare water and food to stay on the road.
