Efeld's shouts were heard far away in the morning haze, but no one responded, only startled a few beetles that were lost in the dust.

"If you don't come out again, you're welcome. ”

Efeld shouted again, and as he began to take a step towards a rock not far away, the feeling of his breath made Efeld sure that there was a devil hiding behind the rock.

Efeld's footsteps made a dull sound on the ground, and Solo's little heart, which was hiding behind the rocks, beat with Efeld's footsteps, which grew closer and closer, and finally disappeared, and Solo's heart beat faster and faster, as if it were about to jump out of his slightly open mouth at any moment.

"He didn't see me, he didn't see me!"

The little devil prayed quietly, and although he didn't know who to pray to, he instinctively looked at Hierapolis in the haze, the city of ferrymen.

A gorgeous blue-and-white sword light swept through with lightning, and the rock in front of Solo suddenly split in two, exposing the thin body of the inferior demon in front of Efeld, looking at the inferior demon who seemed to be about to faint, Efeld grinned, revealing a mouth full of sharp fangs, and then the spirit of the little inferior demon immediately couldn't bear the burden and fainted.

"A little coward, oh no, a little bad devil. ”

Looking at the familiar teardrop-shaped body and two-femoral bone fork in front of him, Efeld remembered the Cowardly Four with a little nostalgia, although the real name contract can make the master feel the approximate location and mental state of the slave, but Efeld is not in the same plane with the Cowardly Four now, and this feeling has long been blurred, the only thing that is certain is that the Cowardly Four are still alive.

Sitting down next to the fainting little devil, Efeld pulled out a piece of roasted bloodhound meat from the pouch on his chest and slowly nibbled on it. Wait for the little devil to wake up on his own.

After a moment, Efeld quietly opened one eye as he watched the demon in front of him, and when he saw Efeld staring at him, he immediately closed his eyes again, pretending not to have woken up from a fainting.

"A funny little thing. ”

Efeld held back a laugh and removed Shahram from his back. Gently resting the back of the knife on the neck of the little devil, he watched the body of the little devil stiffen suddenly, and then he said briskly.

"Well, it seems that this bad demon has passed out, anyway, he is hungry, so it is better to kill and eat it. ”

As soon as Efeld's words fell, the little devil who pretended to pass out immediately opened his eyes, but he trembled because of the cold giant blade around his neck, and he trembled and pleaded as he trembled.

"Don't. Don't, I didn't pass out, don't eat me~"

"What's your name?"

Efeld smiled and slapped the little devil on the cheek with his knife, almost loosening his tiny fangs, and then he put Shahram away.

"Then give me a reason not to eat you. ”

Although Efeld put away his weapon, the one that had cut through the huge rock was already deeply engraved in his mind, and he rubbed his cheek with his thin palm and replied with his head bowed.

"Me. My name is Solo, and I can take you to the city ahead. ”

"City?"

Efeld looked up at the urban influences that were beginning to blur in the distance. Slightly surprised that there was such an entire city on the ultimate battlefield of the Abyss and Bato's Hell, it was completely unexpected, and with a little surprise, Efeld asked again to the little demon Solo in front of him.

"Isn't that a mirage?"

"It is the greatest city in the Abyss and Batow's Hell, the City of Ferrymen. Hierapolis. ”

There is an unbelievable devotion in Solo's words, a devil is almost unbelievable that he has devotion to a city, but to be able to survive a bloody battle, the city definitely has a powerful power that Efeld could not imagine.

"Hierapolis, the city of ferrymen?"

Efeld repeated the words of the little demon Solo. Unable to help but take a great interest in the city, he threw the half-eaten barbecue in his hand into the hand of the inferior demon Solo, and said.

"Very well, you take me in, not only will I not eat you, but I will also pay you. This is a deposit, and I will give you two more when I enter the city. ”

Solo looked at the barbecue in the palm of his hand, his heart was a little foggy, one moment he was still on the verge of life and death, the next moment it became a single business, and he could earn enough food, and this food was still roasted delicious meat, the ups and downs of life were too sudden, making him feel like his mind was going to blow up.

However, the aroma of the food in the palm of his hand will not be faked, Solo immediately took a big bite of it, and did not raise his head until he stuffed this fist-sized barbecue into his stomach, where food was very scarce, and the customer in front of him was still a demon, Solo didn't want to reach the destination, the barbecue meat was taken back by the customer and killed people.

"My lord, please come with me. ”

Solo, who had stuffed the roast meat into his stomach, burped, motioned for Efeld to follow him, and ran. The course of his run was uncertain, sometimes he was going to walk over the rocky rocks beside him, and sometimes he was going to pass through the middle of a whole bush with spikes. When Efeld looked at Solo with some confusion, he simply threw a small rock towards the flat ground.

The rock fell to the ground and immediately began to sink slowly, where there was a quicksand trap.

Accurately stepping on the footprints of the little devil, Efeld followed the little devil for nearly an hour, and finally stopped under a rock like a hill, and then he lightly tapped rhythmically on the rock, three long, two short, five long and three short, Efeld silently recorded the rhythm of his tapping in his mind.

After knocking continuously for nearly a minute, a stone door suddenly opened on the surface of this huge rock, and a tall demon walked out from behind the door, looking at the inferior demon and the sword demon in front of him.

"According to the regulations, bad demons are not allowed to enter, and those who enter the city need to pay a mid-level magic core. ”

This is a Ugros Demon who belongs to one of the demon races of the Abyss, and unlike the Tanari Demon who dominates the Abyss, the Ugros Demon is a natural mercenary and warrior. They offer their allegiance to the highest bidder while taking the pain of others as the foundation of their pleasure.

It is worth mentioning that most of the Styx ferrymen are Ugros.

Efeld took out his chest pocket and took out two pieces of barbecue and threw them to the little devil, who took the barbecue and immediately left the scene, disappearing without a trace.

"It seems that I am afraid that I will regret it. ”

A smile tugged at the corner of Efeld's mouth. He then took out a mid-rank core from his pocket and handed it to the demon in front of him, and the warrior guarding the door moved out of the way.

The passage is not deep, but at the end of the passage there is an open portal.

"The portal leads directly to Hierapolis, the city of ferrymen, but you'd better not get into trouble in the city. ”

The warning of the Jugros Demon rang in Efeld's ears, but the moment it drifted into Efeld's ears, he had already stepped on the portal.

As if stepping over a volatile water, Efeld was already in a bustling square.

Huge, unimaginably huge. This was the only impression Efeld had since the first sight of the place. At this time, a huge square unfolded in front of him, obviously. It's on an island, and Efeld can even see the beach on the edge of the square.

"Your Excellency, this is your first time in Hierapolis, do you need a guide? Just a piece of barbecue, and I'll show you the magnificence of Hierapolis. ”

Seeing Efeld emerge from the portal, a slumped demon with a beetle-like armor and a diminutive stature rushed to him. Less than half of Efield's height, this is the lowest level of the Rose Worm in a Jugros demon.

"Good. So let's start with Hierapolis. ”

Efeld took a piece of roast meat from his breast pocket and threw it to the Rose Bug, who immediately devoured it like a starving ghost, and Efeld even saw a few Rose Bugs with jealousy and resentment at the edge of the square, apparently in this city of ferrymen. Low-level demons are also having a hard time.

Hierapolis was founded a long time ago when the Yogros were at their strongest, and it was also the capital of the entire Jugros race, when the entire Crimson Plains were under the rule of the Yogros Demons.

But when demons and demons come to this plane. Everything has changed. Whether it is an evil and chaotic demon or an orderly and evil devil, they all use the Yogros as the object of torture and killing, resulting in the death of a large number of low-level Yogros demons.

However, when the demons and demons meet, the fate of the Yugros demons is even more tragic, they are forced by the demons and demons to kill each other, and the population is drastically reduced, and even extinct for a time.

However, there are some high-ranking Yogros demons who have completely hidden their capital, Hierapolis, and only those who are allowed to enter and exit the city.

Hierapolis, in the language of the Devil of Yogros, means the city of the river. That's right, the city was built on the course of the River Styx. The high-ranking Yogros have the unique gift of being able to build soul ships that can sail on the River Styx with a variety of invokers.

Hierapolis was built by the ancient Yogros demons after accumulating several islands in the River Styx.

"My lord, this is a bar and shopping street frequented by ferrymen. ”

The streets of Hierapolis are wide and tidy, and there are many low-level Ugros who maintain the cleanliness of the city, and in the streets, many tall and strong high-ranking Ugros in insect armor can be seen walking towards the bars and shops that line the streets with their oars. These Styx ferrymen often receive strange things from creatures of all planes and races, and these shops are set up for them to identify and purchase items. At the same time, there are many demons, demons, and even creatures from other outer planes who have a low-level Egros wizard like Efeld.

Efeld memorized many places under the guidance of the guide of the Yugros Demon, and finally found a room in a hotel near the bar.

It has to be said that the civilization level of the Yogros Demon in ancient times was indeed quite high, and this hotel was all built with wide stones up to one meter high, and at the same time, these stones were also carved with abstract stripes, which was quite in line with the aesthetic concept of the Yugros Demon.

"Rent one mid-level magic core a day. Here's the key. ”

The common currency in Hierapolis is the magic core, but an intermediate magic core a day is indeed quite expensive, you must know that an intermediate magic core is enough for a cowardly demon to evolve directly. The innkeeper gave Efeld a stone plaque, and then demonstrated on the cabinet door behind him, only need to touch the stone plaque on the stone door slightly, the stone door will open suddenly, after entering the door, the stone door will automatically close, and if you want to go out, you can touch it again.

"Eighty-one-six. ”

Comparing the numbers on the stone tablet, Efeld easily found his room, and then gently touched the stone door with the stone tablet in his hand, and the door opened.

Efeld looked at the room, it was a rectangular room, with a small square window on the side of the street that could see the street, and it was very simplely furnished, two beds made of hay covered with animal skins, and a large cylindrical stake in the corner of the room, and two small stakes beside it, which looked like tables and stools. Nothing else.

But these things were comfortable enough for a demon who had been hovering between life and death for a long time, and Efeld lay down directly on the bed made of hay and began to think.

The attraction of the metal cube to himself, the words of Terrasqui, and the attraction of the portal to himself all seem to point all the questions in one direction, that is, where did you come from?

Although in Efeld's heart, he knew that he had evolved from a demon larva to a sword demon step by step, but what was the demon larva before?

Taking the metal cube out of the bag, Efeld let the small hexagonal shape levitate in the palm of his hand, and no one could have imagined that this guy would be reduced from a giant that was more than twenty meters long to such a small size.

"Perhaps, those Styx ferrymen know what this thing is, and show it to the bar or shop tomorrow. ”

After looking at the metal cube for a while, Efeld put him in his breast pocket, and then slowly fell asleep holding the pocket. (To be continued......)
