Chapter 260: Information from the Temple

…… I seem to be violent, otherwise how could I see giants here?

This was what Al thought in his heart, after all, the person who suddenly appeared in front of him was a little too tall, even the tallest village elder in the village was like a child compared to him.

"Are you alright?"

A deep voice came from the "giant" overhead, and Al unconsciously opened his mouth and muttered, "Ah...... The giant spoke......"

Looking at the young man below who was distracted, and it seemed that he should have fallen into a state of brain disconnection because of too much impact, Zheng Shu shook his head helplessly and stopped caring about him, and turned his head to look at the robber next to him who had been in an inexplicable extreme panic since he appeared.

"You know me?" Zheng Shu raised his eyebrows.

The robber's reaction was obviously not normal, although his posture was indeed a little murderous, but it was not enough to make this guy scared to this point.

"Magic ...... The Demon King, the Demon King is here!! After muttering a few indistinct words, the robber finally shouted a word.

The scream was so miserable that it didn't match his image at all, and its strong body was now shaking like a sieve, and the whole person looked like a chicken cub about to die.

And this sentence also made Zheng Shu's face immediately darken, I originally wanted to ask where these guys had seen him, but now I don't need to ask.

Now that you know this black history of yourself, then ......

They all have to die!

Zheng Shu made a move without warning, and he didn't release any special skills, he simply waved his hand forward, relying on the shock wave generated by the blasting air to cause damage.

But on the other side, the leader of the thieves, who was only stronger than ordinary people, had no ability to counteract in the face of Zheng Shu's attack, which was not even a general attack, and the whole person was directly blasted out by the violent shock wave.

By the time he hit the ground, the robber leader's body had become like a tattered rag doll.

"Run, !!"

Maybe he had heard of Zheng Shu's name as the "Demon King" from his own leader, or maybe because the effect of Zheng Shu's attack was too terrifying, the robbers who were still entangled with the villagers immediately screamed and threw down their weapons and fled in all directions.

Even the robbers who were pestering each other with the three hunters found an opportunity to escape, and a few of them were killed on the spot because they were too slow to escape.

Zheng Shu didn't chase after this group of fleeing robbers, but just raised his arm and stretched out his finger to point to the sky.

After slightly estimating the location of all the robbers, Zheng Shu silently mobilized the magic power in his body, and the outstretched finger suddenly emitted a black magic light.

Immediately after, a large mass of magical energy suddenly launched from the tips of his fingers, and after flying into the sky, it quickly turned and shot at the group of robbers who were fleeing.

Puff puff!

A series of sounds of human bodies being pierced, and the mass of magical energy did not explode immediately after hitting the robbers' bodies, but instead shot directly into their bodies like bullets.

And then......

Boom Boom!

The unstable energy exploded inside the human body, and the terrifying power exploded in an instant, and flowers of flesh and blood appeared around the village.

"The effect is good, but it is of little use to the masters, so it can only be used to clear the miscellaneous soldiers." Zheng Shu commented on his move very pertinently.

Although it seems to have a good effect, when facing a slightly stronger enemy, this unstable energy mass can easily be exploded in advance, so it is only effective when facing these ordinary people who don't know any magic at all.

Shaking his arm, Zheng Shu turned his head to look at the villagers.

As expected, these villagers had become trembling after seeing Zheng Shu's brutal methods, and after seeing Zheng Shu look at him, even the three hunters couldn't help but take a step back.

Zheng Shu didn't care, he might have been a little sad when he encountered such an attitude at first, but now he is even a little self-indulgent, otherwise he wouldn't have harvested in such a brutal way.

"Thank you...... Your help. At this time, a small voice came from the side, which made Zheng Shu stunned for a moment.

Turning his head to look, the young man who was rescued by him just now was looking at him cautiously, and even trembled nervously when he saw Zheng Shu's gaze turn around, but he immediately straightened his body and looked directly into Zheng Shu's eyes.

In the blink of an eye, Zheng Shu's originally expressionless face suddenly laughed: "Little brother, are you very courageous?" Yes, yes, I admire you! ”

"Thank you...... Thank. Not expecting Zheng Shu to praise himself, Al subconsciously thanked him and then relaxed, and then noticed Zheng Shu's face.

"Oh, that's interesting." Zheng Shu glanced at Al, who was in a state of obsession because he saw his face, and was a little surprised.

Being able to see his true face shows that the proportion of divine bloodlines in his body is not low, and in the battle just now, he can directly dodge the attacks of enemies whose physique far exceeds his own with his own perception, and his qualifications should be quite good.

Zheng Shu was also a little surprised that such a talent could appear in a small village.

After all, judging by his qualifications, he should not be a genius of the level of the second or third generation of gods, but since he can have such a high level of divine blood, it means that the young man in front of him is very likely to be the illegitimate son of a nobleman.

After all, in ancient Greece in the age of the gods, only the blood of the nobles would flow in the blood of the gods.

And......

"Did you make this thing yourself?" Zheng Shu observed with some curiosity what Al was holding and the weapon he was carrying on his back.

Even from his point of view, the quality of the weapons on this kid's body is unusually high, and if you calculate it carefully, it is probably a treasure-level treasure.

But I don't know why, each weapon has a little flaw on it, so that although these weapons have reached the level of Noble Phantasm in one aspect, they are not so good in the actual use process.

Just like the longsword in his hand, although this longsword can form a protective spell by automatically extracting the user's mana, due to the flaws in its crafting, the longsword itself has almost no attack power.

In other words, this thing is not so much a long sword as a shield in the form of a sword.

The weapons he was carrying behind his back also had all kinds of strange problems, but after all, they were treasure-level equipment, even if they had all kinds of problems, these equipment would be highly sought after by people if they appeared on the market.

Moreover, at the necessary moment, it is completely possible to destroy these weapons with huge magical power, so that the weapon itself can be used as a container for huge magical power, and the magic contained in it can be detonated as explosives, inflicting heavy damage on the opponent.

This is also known as the Fantasy Collapse.

And this trick is a trick for some people in the Moon World.

Zheng Shu's eyes unconsciously aimed at the two potholes next to him, where was the effect caused by the previous two illusion collapses, and their power was no less than that of RPG rockets.

Of course, such extravagance can lead to cardiac arrest for anyone who knows the value of these weapons. At the same time, although the power of the burst is not satisfactory, it is not comparable to the fully released weapons of the same level.

"This ...... Lord Demon, these weapons are indeed made by El. If you need a weapon, we don't skimp on your skills, and that's to thank you for helping the village. Despite Al's age, his skills are among the best in our village. ”

Al didn't answer Zheng Shu's question, and it was the village chief who had just commanded the villagers to fight. He hesitated for a moment in addressing Zheng Shu, and finally chose the title he heard from the robbers.

In the village chief's opinion, the so-called hero regards his name as more important than anything else, and since the other party has worked hard to play the title of "Demon King", although he doesn't quite understand what this means, he naturally has to call it according to the other party's wishes.

So naturally, Zheng Shu's face darkened again.

"Don't call me the Demon King, this is all shouted by those robbers, have you ever seen a kind Demon King like me?" There was even a bit of gnashing of teeth in the voice.

"Okay, this one...... My lord! ”

Although the village chief's expression was still a little awkward when he said this, Zheng Shu was already a lot more relieved, presumably if this continued, his title as a demon king should be reversed soon.

After solving the problem of his own title, Zheng Shu began to think about the information in what the village chief said just now.

Looking up, Zheng Shu noticed the problem in the village: not only the weapons, but also the farm tools they used looked quite exquisite.

Zheng Shu even saw several long knives that had been cut off on the ground, which were the weapons used by the group of thieves, and they had not been able to fight the farming tools of these villagers in the battle just now.

In addition, there is a young man in a village who has a high concentration of divine blood and is suspected to be the illegitimate child of a nobleman, and this young man can actually create a treasure-level weapon.

"Is your village good at blacksmithing?" Zheng Shu suddenly looked at the village chief.

"That's right, this ...... My lord, the entire village of our village worships the god of fire and forging: Lord Hephaestus, so everyone in the village has a certain level of forging ability. Even among the surrounding city-states, our village's forge is the strongest, and every year nobles send people to us to customize new weapons. ”

Speaking of this, the village chief's face looked very proud.

It is precisely because of such excellent forging ability that this village has been able to develop into a huge village.

"All believe in Hephaestus?" Zheng Shu's eyes lit up, "Are there the same beliefs in the surrounding villages?" ”

The village chief's originally proud expression was stunned for a moment, and after thinking for a while, he said with some uncertainty: "As far as I know, although there are people in the surrounding villages who believe in Lord Hephaestus, not everyone in the entire village has the same faith...... In fact, it is rare for an entire village to have one faith, such as ours. ”

"Oh?" The corners of Zheng Shu's mouth curled, and compared to the information given by the sun god Apollo in his mind, he became more and more convinced that his target was nearby.

"I want to ask, are there any active volcanoes near your village?"

"An active volcano?" The village chief touched the back of his head with some distress, "My lord, I haven't heard of an active volcano near the village, after all, if there was such a thing, we wouldn't build the village here." ”

"Huh?" Zheng Shu frowned and confirmed again, "Is it really not?" ”

The village chief looked a little panicked, after all, he still saw Zheng Shu's methods to dispose of that group of robbers just now, if he really provoked the "demon king" in front of him to be angry, his village was likely to become history today.

At this time, the village chief suddenly understood the meaning of "Demon King" without a teacher, and secretly agreed with the suitability of this title and the hero in front of him.

After thinking about it vigorously, the village nodded a little frightened: "My lord...... There is no such thing as an active volcano, and in fact there are very few mountains around our village. ”

Seeing that the other party's expression didn't look like he was lying, Zheng Shu frowned helplessly: "It doesn't make sense, 'All the people believe that Herphaestus can find her temple in the magma next to the village', the message does say so, Apollo shouldn't be idle and boring to lie to me, so ......"

Zheng Shu pondered for a while and raised his head: "Then do you know that in addition to your village, there are other villages where the entire village believes in Hephaestus?" ”

"This ......," the village chief shook his head helplessly again, "at least I haven't heard of such a village among the surrounding city-states, after all, if there really is such a village nearby, we will definitely know about it." ”

"What the hell is this?" Zheng Shu scratched his hair a little irritably.

With his mood swings, the magic power in his body also began to exude a terrifying aura, which frightened the village chief next to him and trembled, and once again expressed his recognition of Zheng Shu's identity as the "Demon King".

"That...... Is it okay with magma? ”

Just when Zheng Shu felt impatient, a cautious voice came from the side, and he turned his head to look at Al, who had not spoken since just now.

Seeing Zheng Shu looking at him, Al thought for a moment and said more accurately: "There are indeed no active volcanoes near the village, but if it is magma, I do know that there will be a place where there will be ...... I don't know if I can help you. ”

"Can there be magma without an active volcano? Good guys, is the terrain of the gods so random? Zheng Shu blinked, looking at the cautious Al and suddenly a little proud, "I'm really a good person with good rewards!" ”
