Hearing that the disciple of the "Protector Mage" was also a "demon monk", Nick's expression was as uncomfortable as if he had been constipated for twenty days.

Finks looked at him strangely, "Uncle seems to have a little headache with this 'demon monk'?" ”

"It's a bit of a headache." Nick nodded helplessly, "I've heard that this 'Protector Mage' once cut off his head and put it back on. ”

Finks' mouth was wide open, almost enough to fit into her fist, "What kind of weird superpower is this?" ”

Nick grinned, "After all, his demon name seems to be called: Demon Star." ”

"Magic Star...... Oh my God! Finks suddenly realized that things weren't easy.

Lydia once introduced that the highest status among the demons is the Demon King and the Demon Lord, and below the two are the "Dark Seven Sages", and the seven of them lead the "Twenty-Four Generals" respectively.

Among them, the name of the "Twenty-Four Generals" begins with "Black", and the queen of the Wild Sand Empire, and the "Thousand-Faced Demon Queen" Hei Yimeng, who later died in the desert, is one of them.

And the "Dark Seven Sages", who are stronger than them, have names that begin with "Demon". It is said that any one of them has the power to destroy the world.

Finks' face had turned very ugly, "Could it be that he is one of the 'Dark Seven'?" ”

Benson explained, "Although Linton is a disciple of the 'Protector Mage', he doesn't have such a masterful supernatural ability, but his soul recovery technique can indeed almost bring the dead back to life. ”

Nick and Finks looked at each other, "Anything like this?" ”

Benson's gaze fell on the chubby innkeeper, "I wasn't there at the time, but I heard that she had suffered a horrific murder at the inn just a few years ago when she was ordered to hunt down a group of traitors. It was because of this fat man who saved her that the store was not razed to the ground. ”

Finx asked the innkeeper curiously, "Is there such a thing?" ”

The fat boss blinked for a long time, as if searching the situation in his memory, and after a while, he patted his head vigorously: "I remember, it was a rare rainy night." ”

It doesn't rain much in the desert, so he was particularly impressed.

"It was very dark that night, with torrential rain and even lightning and thunder." The fat boss said vividly, as if he had traveled back to that night, "A sharp knock on the door knocked open, and several old people, children, and some young women rushed in to take refuge. ”

The fat boss gestured on his thigh: "I remember that the youngest child was only so tall and had two braids. Those big flickering eyes looked at me in alarm. ”

As long as you are a person with a clear conscience, you will always feel pity when you see such a situation. But the sound of the rain was mixed with the cries of alpacas, and the sky outside was already lit red by torches, and the pursuers shouted slogans, and quickly surrounded the inn.

Thinking of the situation at that time, the fat boss's voice trembled with fear, "There were three hundred ...... at that time No, I saw more than 500 people, wearing dark masks, holding torches and scimitars high in the night. The three generals shouted to cut off the heads of those men......"

Finks nervously asked, "What happened to them?" ”

"Then they died." The boss replied regretfully.

Finks sighed, "What a poor bunch of people......"

"I probably didn't make it clear." The boss hurriedly shook his hand, "I mean, then those three generals died. ”

Finks was stunned.

"Not only did the three generals die, but almost all of the five hundred died." The boss said firmly.

This time, not only Finks was stunned, but even Nick was a little surprised and asked, "How did you die, your soul was taken away by the 'Desert Death'?" ”

The boss said in a matter-of-fact manner: "As soon as the three generals finished speaking, a lightning bolt struck from the sky. Strange to say, just as the lightning struck, it illuminated a dark figure on the roof. ”

Finks vaguely guessed the plot that followed, "You mean to say that a guy with a black cloak appeared on the roof?" ”

The boss nodded like a chicken pecking rice, "Yes, yes, yes!" The pitch-black cloak, the pitch-black hood, and the pitch-black scythe have a crescent moon on it......"

Nick couldn't help but cough twice and glanced at Finks, "He probably didn't mean to laugh." ”

Finks nodded, "I can't think of a second person who is so good at pretending to be a ghost." ”

The boss continued: "...... The person who came was the rumored 'Lord of the Red Pavilion', who was originally the incarnation of the 'Hell Hades'. He was no ordinary man, he could shoot lightning in his eyes and cut through the wind with his fingers. He usually never says a word more, because he only needs to move his lips to take away the souls of others......"

Finks frowned and whispered to Nick, "Uncle, why does this boss speak in such a strange tone?" ”

Nick speculated: "I think he's talking like a bard." ”

After all, it was also an inn, and many bards used to visit here. More or less, they tell stories that people love to hear. And the latest plot is the classic episode of the rumored "Princess of Fire" and "Hell Hades" creating a new world.

The fat boss was still immersed in his performance time, and continued: "The three generals laughed when they saw this strange figure, and they said, 'What kind of fool is it that dares to resist our army?' The archers behind them immediately drew their bows and arrows, aiming at the figure. ”

He picked up a broom and gestured it, "At that moment a thunderclap struck from the sky, and the earth shook as if it were about to crack." With a thunderclap, the scythe of the Hell Hades swung out. With a single sword, thousands of ghosts of hell cried out and pounced on the five hundred pursuers. ”

The fat boss said with an awe-inspiring face: "Although those five hundred people are the elite warriors of the Wild Sand Empire, after all, they are only mortal bodies, how can they fight against the Hades King?" Screams and cries mingled with the sound of wind, rain and thunder, flags were cut down in an instant, flesh and skin were ruthlessly torn apart, and the blood of five hundred people soaked the sand red. Since then, it has been known as the 'Land of Red Sand'. ”

Nick and Finks had given up complaining, but luckily they had taken the fat boss for a storyteller, and they had a lot of fun, and they couldn't help but want to reward him with a few copper coins.

“…… When almost all the 500 men were dead and wounded, the king put away his scythe and spared the rest. The fat boss slapped his thigh and pretended to be mysterious, "Hades slept in hell in his early years, and was awakened by the three tears of the 'Princess of Gunfire', so the scythe can only be swung three times each time, representing the princess's mercy." ”

Finks couldn't help but applaud, "The story is very well told, if I hadn't known and laughed for so many years, I really almost believed it." ”

Nick also laughed, "The boss is right, but I remember that this General Benson mentioned how his commander Zahir was saved by the 'Demon Monk' Linton? ”

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" The fat boss hurriedly bowed and apologized, "I'm a little carried away, I'm really sorry...... after the 'Hades King' killed all the pursuers, he fled with those homeless people overnight. But less than half an hour after they left, another group of men arrived. ”

Finks raised an eyebrow, "Let me guess again, it's the 'Demon Monk' Linton who came back this time?" ”

"This girl is really clever." The fat boss complimented, "The disciples of the Protector Mage led hundreds of people to chase here. Two of the disciples decided to take people in pursuit, and only the disciple named Linton decided to stay behind and search for those who might survive. ”

Nick suddenly interrupted, "According to what you say, the 'Protector Mage' now has three disciples?" ”

"There used to be three, but now there's only one Linton. ”

Nick's mind turned, and he immediately understood: there was no precedent for daring to chase people who didn't laugh.

The fat boss's tone sighed, "Linton led people to search the battlefield in the rain for more than an hour, and finally found only one woman. She had a broken hand and a leg each, a big hole in her stomach, and her intestines flowed out......"

Nick and Finks have already understood that this woman is Benson's current chief, Zahir, who has taken refuge in the demon "protector mage".

The fat boss pointed to the surroundings of the dining room and continued to explain: "...... He wrapped the woman's wound in gauze and asked me to prepare some hot water and porridge and rice. Then, he asked his men to remove the tables and chairs from the dining room, and drew an intricate circle on the ground with soul stone powder......"

He danced as he performed the miraculous scene, "He placed a few sacrifices and a few soul stones in the key position of the circle, and carried the woman to the center. He raised his staff and shouted to the sky: 'In the name of the Demon King, Demon King, and Witch, stand up to the Dying!' Then a miracle happened. ”

"And that woman was cured?" Finks questioned.

The fat boss patted his face, "I saw with my own eyes, the magic circle rotated rapidly, and the wounds on the woman's body healed quickly at a speed visible to the naked eye. Just baking a loaf of bread, she recovered on the spot! ”

Benson coughed, interrupting the fat boss's boasting.

"If you say she's 'recovered,' that's a bit of a lack of rigor." Benson corrected, "The day after she recovered and returned to the barracks, she challenged five masters and won five battles. ”

This sentence may not sound to others, but as a former generalissimo, Nick deeply understands the weight of this sentence.

According to the description of the fat boss, before the battle of "Chisha Hotel", Zahir was a nobody. But after Linton's rescue, she dared to skip the rank to participate in the competitive test of partial generals, and even won five battles and was successfully promoted.

"It doesn't look like it's a 'restoration.'" Nick mused, "I think she might have been given a 'new lease of life' because of this. ”
