Chapter 41—The Trial of the Templar (4)

After thinking about it for a long time, Mino still couldn't determine whether this was the king's doing.

As Claures said, although King Carmont and Dubert's teacher-student relationship is close, it is not yet to the point where he can recklessly avenge it, otherwise, Mino would have been killed by the killers he sent at this time, and he would not have the opportunity to participate in the current Templar trials.

Moreover, if the current act of demolishing the signs and forming an ambush is really carried out by the king, it is clear that it is to exterminate all the priesthood apprentices who participated in the trial, and the background of these apprentices in their own families is a trivial matter, but the Church of the Most High God who organized this trial cannot afford to offend.

After all, these trialists are the new force of the Supreme God Cult in the future, the seeds of the future, a few killed can be said to be accidents, if the whole army is wiped out, if the Supreme God Sect does not want this situation to continue to happen so that the manpower is broken, it will definitely send people to investigate, if it is found out that it is the ghost of Carmont, then the fun will be great.

You must know that no matter how strong Kaguya is, he is just an epic powerhouse, and there are at least twelve powerhouses of this level in the Church of the Supreme God, not to mention the legendary Pope's Holy Seat that has already ascended to the ninth level of mythology, how far does Carmont have to go to dare to provoke such a strong enemy.

Therefore, it is unlikely that this matter was done by the Carmontese.

But if it wasn't Carmont who made the ghosts, then the strangeness of the demons was too difficult to explain, and it was impossible for the demons to be super evolved as soon as Minoan and them came.

"Forget it, I don't want to think so much, let's fill my stomach first. ”

After thinking about it for a long time, Mino didn't come up with a reason, and his already hungry stomach roared again, touching his shriveled stomach, Mino decided not to think about those troubles for the time being.

With another kick on the poisonous material, Mino cleared out a clearing, found a remote corner, recited a spell, and summoned the little Steyrian beast hiding in the demon pet plane.

The little beast with a gold ring on one side of the two ears jumped out of the void, looked around in confusion, and after discovering the position of his master, he jumped on Mino's shoulder without thinking, and then shook his long ears, and a carrot was thrown out of the storage ring, and the little guy raised his head slightly familiarly, and held it in his mouth.

After teasing the cute little fellow, Mino took off the storage ring on his ear, put it aside, and after signaling his vigilance, he took out the Momo noodles that Sister Lai had made for herself this morning, and ate them happily.

In fact, as early as when the quartermaster was distributing supplies, Mino had sensed that there was something wrong with him, although he didn't think of his intentions at the time, but he could still feel the hidden hostility towards himself.

Drinking water was a life-saving thing in the Templar Trials, and Mino's brain was pumped to give up the supplies he had prepared at the suggestion of such a problematic person, and only carry what he had prepared for a guy who was hostile to him.

So as early as when he put the backpack back in the carriage, Mino put the contents of the backpack into the storage ring, making the illusion that he only carried the bag of poisonous materials just to confuse the enemy, so that the other party would not succeed in the plan and then kill other poisonous people.

Filling his stomach, Mino considered the danger of his current situation, and despite the little one's resistance, put the storage ring back on its ears, and then forcibly returned the little Stadymon to the Demon Pet Plane.

While eating, Mino had already figured out that no matter whether the current dangerous situation was the king's conspiracy or the evolution of the demon's IQ, it was not a problem that he could solve alone, and the only thing he could do at present was to complete this templar trial and kill more demons.

As soon as he thought of it, Minow, who had eaten and drunk enough, picked up his long sword and began his own demon hunting journey.

I don't know if it was because the previous ambush on Minoan and them made the demons scattered, or because the previous ambush had no effect, so that the demons gave up the idea of collective action, and Mino, who set off again, unexpectedly found that the demons had actually returned to their proper state of dispersion.

After walking cautiously two or three ways, Mino found a demon with a pig's head at a fork in the road, judging by its appearance of only second-level strength, it should be a product of failed evolution.

This kind of demon is usually the lowest existence in the same level, and after Mino circled around several times, carefully observed and confirmed that there was no ambush, he quietly touched the back of this pig-headed demon, and jumped out at the moment when he exposed his vest to himself.

The tiger still needs to use all his strength to fight the rabbit, not to mention that Mino is fighting a demon of the same rank as himself and known for his good fighting.

Therefore, in addition to not using those great dynamic and static fighting qi martial arts that required qi accumulation, Mino almost poured the long sword Blue Moon with the maximum amount of fighting energy, regardless of the consumption of the fighting qi in his body, striving to seriously injure or even kill this pig-headed demon.

Listening to a snort, the blue moon stabbed into the back of the pig-headed demon's heart, and the fighting energy poured into the sword suddenly exploded under the urging of Mino, and the demon's heart was broken clean in an instant, even with the demon's powerful vitality, it only supported it until it barely turned its pig's head back, and then it lost its breath.

Looking at the pig-headed demon that fell to the ground, Mino let out a long breath and pulled the blue moon out of the demon's body.

Leaning against the stone wall on the side, Mino shook off the dark demon blood on the blue moon, his heart moved, and he pulled out the magic necklace around his neck, looking at the extra wisp of light on it, and there was a trace of clarity in his heart.

After resting for a while and relieving his tension, Mino got up and went in search of the next demon.

Shot again and again, gradually, Mino no longer felt nervous because the enemy was a demon, after discovering the lone demon, first checked the ambush as usual, and then slowly approached with a reined breath, and when the enemy showed a flaw, he burst into trouble, lightly sent the long sword in his hand into the heart of the enemy, and then continued to look for the next target without looking back.

Of course, not every sneak attack can be successful, once Mino accidentally stepped on a stone, alarmed the demon who wanted to sneak attack, and had no choice but to face it head-on, but after a fight, he easily killed the second-level inferior demon at the cost of flesh wounds.

This made Mino more and more confident, and he became more and more comfortable hunting demons, and in just two days, he killed more than thirty second-level demons and first-level cowardly demons that were multiplied by them, so that the light emitted on the magic necklace was almost impossible to cover up a piece of clothing.

While watching the light on the necklace close his mouth, the speculation in Mino's heart about the previous abnormal situation also shifted a little in the direction of the king's conspiracy.

After all, if the demon really had evolved his IQ as a whole, it would not have been possible to be killed so easily by himself, and the previous collective ambush could only be guided by someone, and the only reason Mino could think of for this was King Carmont's action.

After another meal, Mino pulled out his topographical map and began to think about the direction of the hunt.

Based in the remote place where he first ate, Mino has almost swept away the demons around him these days, and even ventured to the place where the group was ambushed once, and unexpectedly found that there was no bones of the person he thought was dead, and he didn't know if he was eaten by the demons or luckily ran away.

So Mino can only expand his hunting range and develop new areas now, and Minow, who has cultivated his self-confidence by hunting demons these days, said that he has no pressure.

It's not that Mino's boasting, through these days of fighting, Mino's actual combat experience has improved again, and he has also mastered the habits and weaknesses of demons, and demons within the second level can't be a threat alone.

As for the group fight, the collective ambush that day was like a dream, it was a flash in the pan and never appeared again, and Mino didn't even notice the two demons walking together.

Through the simple signs he had made these days, Mino roughly determined the direction, and then headed in the direction he had in mind.

The entire underground labyrinth was lit by exposed fluorite ore on the walls, and although the light was dim, there were few dark places, and Mino walked along the road looking around, looking for a target to shoot.

Not long after stepping out of his hunting range, Mino spotted a target.

It was an elite demon who was eating, eating a large insect native to this underground labyrinth, the size of a puppy, I heard that many seniors who had come to see the trial before accidentally threw away the food or ate it in advance, and it was by eating this big bug that survived.

There is basically no difference in appearance between the elite inferior demon and the normal inferior demon, only the weapon of unknown material in their hands can show that they are different from the ordinary inferior demon.

However, the gap between the two in terms of combat power is quite huge, and ordinary inferior demons are quite low-level of second-level demons, only better than those demons that have failed to evolve.

And the elite inferior demon is a strong demon who is about to be promoted to the third level, its strength has almost touched the ceiling of the second level, and the IQ has also increased slightly, the only time Mino encountered it, because of the failure of the sneak attack, it was at the cost of serious injuries that he barely killed the other party.

Now seeing this elite demon again, Mino is eager to try it, wanting to use it to test his progress over the past few days.

Cautiously touching the back of the elite inferior demon who pounced on the big insect and devoured it, Mino carefully controlled his pace, while paying attention to the movements of the elite inferior demon, he was distracted by the things on the ground in front of him, trying not to make the slightest sound.

Fortunately, the attention of this elite demon was all on the food, and there was no desire to distract him at all, and after a minute, Mino came to his back smoothly.

Trying to restrain his breath, Mino slowly raised the long sword Blue Moon in his hand, aimed at the back of the heart of the elite inferior demon exposed in front of him, and stabbed it down with a sword.
