Chapter 103: Demon Protector
[Does it cost 100 technology points to teleport?] 】
Looking at one of the points of light on the Heavenly Treasure Guide, Zhao Yu thought that he had to try it and nodded.
"Brush!"
In the next second, a white light appeared, enveloping Zhao Yu and disappearing in an instant.
A sensation of dizziness unique to teleportation hit, and I don't know how long it took, Zhao Yu gradually came to his senses.
"Whoosh~!"
A space-time crack suddenly appeared in mid-air, and Zhao Yu's whole person fell out of it.
"it!"
The violent hurricane woke Zhao Yu up suddenly, and he hurriedly adjusted his posture.
"Plop~!" With a bang, Zhao Yu slammed into the ground, forming a crater-like pit.
Fortunately, the teleportation channel was only 100 meters from the ground, and with his physical fitness, he was able to resist the injury.
"This Land ......"
Zhao Yu patted the dust and got up, and found that the soil on the ground was dark red.
I got up and looked around, and the first thing I saw was a huge disc hanging in the sky.
"It's ...... Satellites of this planet? ”
"Is it so close?!"
Soon, Zhao Yu noticed something unusual, and his body seemed to be lighter than before.
I tried to jump, and I actually flew dozens of meters high.
"Gravity seems to be lighter here......"
In mid-air, Zhao Yu looked around, and the nearby was full of dark red land similar to the Gobi Desert, which looked very desolate, and there seemed to be some green in only one direction.
When he first arrived, Zhao Yu didn't know where to go, so he simply jumped while walking and walked towards the green place.
Without using the body method and light skills, jumping dozens of meters high simply with his physical body, this experience is also very good for Zhao Yu, which makes him have a lot of fun.
In just ten minutes, he crossed a distance of tens or hundreds of kilometers and arrived in a primeval forest.
"Run, just get into the restricted area......"
He had barely gone far into the forest when he heard a shout.
Zhao Yu quickly launched the vision scan.
Nearly three hundred meters away from him, three people with bamboo baskets and animal masks on their backs rushed towards him.
Behind the three of them, there was also a fierce beast with a body size of more than three meters.
Brush!
Soon, Zhao Yu figured out the situation of the three people and one beast through the vision scan.
Those three people were just ordinary people and didn't have any abilities, while the beasts that pursued them had first-order strength.
Sou~!
Zhao Yu appeared in the sky above the beast in an instant, and stepped lightly.
"Bang~!"
In an instant, the beast was a headless corpse, and it fell hard.
The loud noise made the three of them can't help but glance back.
When they saw that the pursuing beast was dead, and that there was a strangely dressed man standing above the beast, they all froze on the spot.
"Dead?!"
"That guy did it!"
"Saved!"
The three of them were pleasantly surprised, and they all showed expressions for the rest of their lives.
But they quickly restrained their emotions, hurriedly came to Zhao Yu, knelt down, put their faces on the ground, and said respectfully:
"Thank you, Lord Demon, for saving your life!"
Demon-sama?
Zhao Yu understood that the three of them had misunderstood who he was.
However, he didn't explain anything, and said lightly: "Get up and speak!" ”
The three of them couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in their hearts, and slowly raised their heads with a relieved look on their faces.
But after seeing Zhao Yu's appearance, the three of them were a little puzzled, and seemed to be very puzzled by his outfit.
"What is this place and who are you?!"
Zhao Yu noticed that all three people were wearing animal masks on their faces, two tiger faces and one fox face, two men and one woman, and it was roughly judged that all three of them were in their twenties through vision scanning.
"This is the forbidden forest, and we are the medicine pickers of the forbidden town......
One of the men in the lead of the three replied respectfully, but he was very puzzled in his heart, not understanding how Zhao Yu could not know what place this was.
At the same time, he was also secretly looking at Zhao Yu, observed a circle, and found that the other party's face was white and pure, and the doubts in his heart were even stronger.
Zhao Yu nodded slightly, and said, "I'm from far away, what do you mean by Lord Demon just now?!" ”
"Far away?!"
The three of them were a little dazed and looked at each other.
The tiger-faced man who was still the leader reacted quickly, and hurriedly said: "My lord, Lord Demon Protector refers to a strong person like you who can control the power of demons......"
Looking at the clothes and attitudes of the three of them, obviously they don't know much, and Zhao Yu plans to go to the human gathering place to see it in person.
"Okay, then go to the forbidden border town you talked about......"
"Yes~~!"
The three of them hurriedly expressed their willingness to lead the way, and their faces were all happy.
"With the Devil-sama with us, we can return to the town safely......" The fox-faced woman said with a little joy.
"My lord, if you believe me, let the villain clean up the corpse of this monster for you......"
The tiger-faced man led by Zhao Yu saw that Zhao Yu did not show signs of cleaning up the body, and suddenly had a trace of thought.
When Zhao Yu first arrived, he didn't understand the situation here, and he didn't refuse blankly, he nodded, wanting to see what the other party would do.
Seeing Zhao Yu nodding, the tiger-faced man was ecstatic, and hurriedly asked the fox-faced woman to serve Zhao Yu on the side, and he and another man quickly came to the monster's side and began to move the knife.
The fox-faced woman was sent to Zhao Yu's side, and she was still a little apprehensive, but seeing that the other party had been staring at them and looking at the monster, she relaxed a little.
She thought of what Zhao Yu said before, and couldn't help asking, "My lord, what is the place you just said far, far away?!" ”
Zhao Yu glanced at her and said, "What's the farthest place you know?" ”
"The farthest place ......"
The fox-faced woman scratched her head and said uncertainly, "Qingcheng, or Yucheng?" ”
Zhao Yu nodded and said, "The place I came from is farther away than these two places!" ”
"Ah, sir, you're amazing!" The fox-faced woman couldn't help but admire.
Zhao Yu smiled and asked, "Why is it amazing?!" ”
"I've heard that even the Lord of the Demon Emperor doesn't dare to go back and forth to the various cities alone, so he has to form a caravan to travel together......"
The fox-faced woman explained, "If you come from such a far away place alone, then you are very strong even among the Demon Lords......
said so, but she was very puzzled in her heart, because Zhao Yu in front of her was too white, white like an ordinary person.
After all, the really powerful Demon Lord has obvious characteristics of the monsters on his body, which is too clean like Zhao Yu.
Maybe...... His monster features hidden under his clothes?
The fox-faced woman looked at Zhao Yu's strange armor and guessed that this should be to cover up the characteristics of the monster.
But why should the monster's features be covered up?!
She felt that the newly appeared Demon Lord in front of her was full of mystery.
Zhao Yu chatted with the fox-faced woman for a while, and the two tiger-faced men over there had already dismembered the monster's corpse and tied it with ropes.
"My lord, this monster is too big, we may not be able to take it......"
A tiger-faced man said, pointing to the pieces of meat on the ground that had been tied into three piles.
"It's okay, just pick up some valuable ones!" Zhao Yu nodded and said.
The three of them immediately breathed a sigh of relief, fearing that this adult would be too strong and insist that they bring all the monster corpses, then they would suffer from the old sin.
The group then hit the road and walked in one direction.
Through small talk, Zhao Yu learned that the dark red Gobi was a forbidden area before, and there was no abnormality during the day, but no creature could survive overnight until the next day.
No matter how powerful the Demon Lord is, or a monster, it's no exception.
"We are all medicine pickers in the forbidden border town, and we rarely encounter monsters here, after all, this is close to the forbidden area......
"I don't know what's going on this time, but I actually met a monster, but fortunately, I was lucky enough to meet you, and I escaped......"
"Otherwise, we'll probably have to hide in the restricted area......"
"The forbidden area is too ominous, it's better not to go in or not to go in......"
Several people walked together for a while, and the three of them didn't know why, but they felt that Zhao Yu had a particularly peaceful aura on his body, which made them can't help but want to be closer and closer.
Replaced by the other Demon Lords, they didn't dare to talk so much.
And Zhao Yu also learned about the situation in this world from the small talk with the three of them.
In addition to humans, there are a large number of monsters in this world.
In the past, humans were completely unable to resist monsters, and were forced to almost go extinct.
At that critical juncture, a group of sages stepped forward and used various methods to try to gain the power of the monster in order to fight the monster.
Eventually, a certain sage trapped an ape-like monster and used it as a breeding to successfully give birth to the first demon protector with monster characteristics and far more power than humans.
Although the strength of the demon resistor is still very weak compared to monsters, it is much stronger than ordinary humans.
In the early years, a number of demon warriors joined forces and successfully killed monsters, thus completely opening the era of demon resists.
Zhao Yu was stunned when he heard this, "So, the current people are all hybrids between humans and monsters?!" ”
"Plop~~!"
The three of them were startled, and quickly knelt on the ground, and hurriedly shouted: "My lord, spare my life, we don't mean it......"
Zhao Yu was stunned for a moment, but quickly reacted that the other party had brought him into the identity of the Demon Protector.
After some inquiry, he realized that although the era of demon control had been open for a long time.
But not everyone is a demon protector, they don't know what this world is like, but in the forbidden border town that has grown up and never left, nine out of ten people are ordinary people, and only a few of them are demon protectors.
And these demon warriors, without exception, are all local magnates, intermarrying each other, and rarely let the bloodline pass on.
The reason for this is that combining with non-demon protectors will make the inheritance of offspring weaker and weaker.
"Isn't there any other way to fight those monsters than to resist the demons?"
Zhao Yu frowned.
Judging from the monster he just dealt with, it's just a first-order strength, and he should be able to achieve it by practicing any exercises or something, right?!
Besides, the first-order strength is not very strong, even if ordinary people cooperate with some weapons, they can solve it, right?!
"This ......"
The three of them showed a blank look, and at the same time shook their heads and said: "No, we can survive all thanks to the efforts of the Demon Masters, without the protection of the Demon Lords, our human race would have been extinct long ago......"
"Didn't you try to fight the monsters with the power of the humans themselves?!"
Zhao Yu frowned and said.
According to the other party, the demon protectors of this world are very aggrieved, and they want to design to trap ape-like monsters for breeding.
Since you can design to trap ape-like monsters, it shouldn't be unacceptable to continue to use your brain and design to hunt and kill other monsters, right?
"With the power of humanity itself?!"
The three of them were taken aback, but they didn't expect Zhao Yu to say such a thing.
"Lord Demon Resist, we humans have survived and not been exterminated, it all depends on the Demon Lord ......"
The three of them subconsciously thought that Zhao Yu was the Demon Protector, and naturally felt that Zhao Yu was saying the opposite thing at the moment, and expressed their affirmation and respect for the Demon Protector in fear.
Zhao Yu frowned and said bluntly: "I am not your so-called Demon Master, I am a pure-blooded human race, a pure-blood human race!" ”
"Huh?!"
The three of them looked dazed and a little puzzled.
"Don't make us amused, adults......"
In their opinion, Zhao Yu can kill monsters in seconds with his bare hands, and there is no doubt that he can only be a demon master.
"Forget it, you'll find out later!"
Zhao Yu didn't want to continue to explain to the three of them, and motioned for them to lead the way to the forbidden border town.
This conversation made the relaxed atmosphere between the two sides disperse, and the three of them were conscientious and did not dare to say too much on the rest of the journey.
After advancing for nearly an hour, the group finally arrived at the forbidden border town.
A small city with a five-meter-high wall, there is some farmland outside the city, but there are no people, and all the crops are easy to feed.
The city gate is not large, only a width of one meter and a height of two meters, so this arrangement is obviously to defend against the invasion of monsters.
There were two guards standing at the door, and they began to watch the group of four people from a distance.
After all, there are not many people like them who go out of the city, and basically except for those who go out to farm regularly, there are only herb people.
"Look at the bags they are carrying a lot of things, some of them have ...... this time."
One of the guards said with a smile.
In a position like this, the fat is poor, and the pork can touch the oil and water in and out.
"Wait, that guy doesn't seem to be wearing a mask......"
Another guard had sharp eyes and saw Zhao Yu walking behind the three.
"Is it the Demon-sama?"
"It doesn't seem to be ......"
The forbidden border town is not big, and the number of demon protectors is limited, so naturally everyone knows each demon demon, but Zhao Yu is a strange face.
"Stop, who are you?!"
The two guards immediately stopped in front of Zhao Yu.
"This ...... Adults are from far away......"
The fox-faced woman hurriedly explained: "These monsters we are carrying are the ...... hunted by this adult."
Originally, the guards were still thinking about whether ordinary people violated the law and did not wear masks, but it turned out that the three medicine pickers were carrying pieces of meat that were really monsters on their backs.
"My lord, I'm sorry, we're just doing a routine check~!"
The two guards hurriedly bowed their heads and apologized.
Zhao Yu noticed that the two guards were also wearing masks, but the masks were more hideous, and they looked more powerful than the masks of the three medicine pickers.
"It's okay, let's go to the city!"
Zhao Yu said lightly.
He could see that there were strict rules for ordinary people to wear faces.
At this moment, someone inside the city gate heard the movement and walked out.
"What's going on?!"
It was a man with a hairy face and long, narrow eyes like snake eyes.
Through the vision scanning, Zhao Yu found that this person's face was not an ornament, but a real appearance.
"Captain, this Demon Lord is from a distant place, and this is the monster he hunted......"
One of the guards hurriedly explained the situation.
"Far away?!"
Captain Fluff looked Zhao Yu up and down, and when he saw his clean face, there was a trace of disdain in his eyes.
His expression was slightly arrogant, and he asked condescendingly, "Where did you come from?!" ”
"From Chang'an!" Zhao Yu didn't want to get into trouble, so he replied casually.
"Chang'an?!"
Everyone present had obviously never heard of this place, and even Captain Fluff was a little puzzled.
He frowned and said, "Where is Chang'an, why haven't I heard of it?!" ”
"In the far east!" Zhao Yu said lightly.
Captain Fluff glanced at the piece of meat carried by the three herb pickers again, and confirmed that it was a monster with decent strength.
His expression softened, and then he asked, "Are you the only one?" What about the rest of your team?! ”
"I'm the only one!"
"You're alone?!"
Captain Fluff was obviously a little unconvinced, how could anyone come here alone from a distant place?
He added, "Then what are you here for?!" ”
"There is no purpose, come and travel!"
"No purpose?!"
Captain Fluff frowned, a little unsure if what Zhao Yu said was true.
He turned to look at the three herb pickers and asked, "Are you sure he hunted this monster?!" ”
"Captain, we're sure it's the ...... that the Lord hunted."
The three of them said with sincere fear, and they could see that Captain Fluff had a lot of prestige in their hearts.
Captain Fluffy glanced at Zhao Yu, and seeing that the other party was not angry, he couldn't help but be even more suspicious, and continued: "Tell me the details!" ”
So, the three of them told them about the monsters they encountered and were finally rescued by Zhao Yu.
"You're saying that when you turn around, you'll see that the monster is dead?!"
"Yes!"
Captain Fluff looked at Zhao Yu, squinted his eyes and said, "Boy, you said that you are a demon master, so where is your demonic character?" ”
"When did I say I was a demon master?!" Zhao Yu said lightly.
"Humph!"
Captain Fluff snorted coldly, "Sure enough, it's not a demon master, dare to travel without a mask, what are you two still doing in a daze, take it!" ”
The three herb pickers on the side were stunned, but they didn't expect Zhao Yu to directly say that he was not a demon master, could it be that someone else saved them in the first place?
When the two guards heard this, they were immediately furious, and they were actually frightened by an ordinary person.
"Lao Tzu said how do you look white and pure, it turns out that you are ordinary people, and you dare to play with us without a mask......"
The two guards showed a hideous smile and rushed towards Zhao Yu with their weapons.
"It's disgusting!"
Zhao Yu shook his head, raised his hand and waved, an air cannon shot out, and the two guards flew out.
Then, he raised his hand and pointed at Captain Fluff again.
"Bang~!"
Captain Fluff flew out in response.
In an instant, all three of them lost their combat effectiveness.
Zhao Yu controlled his strength, otherwise with his third-order peak strength, he could easily kill these people.
However, he was new to the city, so there was no need to cause trouble.
"How is that possible?!"
Captain Fluff slumped to the ground, his eyes full of shock.
"What the hell did you do?!"
He barely propped up his head, looked at Zhao Yu with an incredulous face, and asked a soul question.
"As a human being, in the face of monster invasion, I don't think about how to resist, but I turn my back on my human identity and choose to hybridize ......"
Zhao Yu shook his head and said: "Not only that, depending on what you mean, you are also ashamed of pure-blooded humans and proud of hybrid demons, it is really incorrigible!" ”
"Hybrid Demon...... How dare you say such a thing! ”
Although Captain Fluff fell to the ground, he was still shocked by Zhao Yu's words, and said angrily: "I don't believe that you are also an ordinary person, you are definitely also a demon ......"
"Hehe, is it necessary for me to lie to you in this kind of thing?"
Zhao Yu said lightly: "Your so-called powerful monsters, in my opinion, are also weak......
He then shook his head, deciding that it seemed useless to talk to these people.
So, he didn't bother to say much, and walked directly towards the city, intending to see the situation in the city.
Seeing that Zhao Yu was about to enter the city, Captain Fluffy was shocked and angry, lying on the ground and looking at the three medicine pickers and shouting, "You guys go and ring the alarm bell......
"Ah, we?!"
The three of them panicked, how could this kind of thing be allowed to come?
"Go, or your sins will be cured!"
Hearing this, the three of them did not hesitate, quickly entered the city gate, and quickly sounded the alarm bell.
The forbidden border town is not large, and the vision scan can cover almost half of the area, which also makes Zhao Yu quickly gain insight into the situation in the entire town.
The center of the city is undoubtedly home to the noble demon masters, and the rest of the outlying areas are populated by ordinary humans.
And these demon masters, the strongest strength is only the peak of the first order, and there is a difference of 108,000 miles from Zhao Yu.
He's invincible here.
And the fact that this town can gain a foothold here shows that the surrounding monsters are not strong, but only a first-order existence.
Of course, whether the monsters and demon protectors in other places will be more powerful still needs him to see for himself.
