"Demon Slayer."

Jason, who had just returned from outside, looked at the few people who were resting in the camp and said.

Juanlu was lying on the bed when he heard Jason's voice lift the blindfold and open one of his half-squinted eyes to stare at.

"What kind of weird are you talking about?"

"Hey, you're welcome, I'm calling all of you."

Jason walked in, sat on the stool, leaned back in the chair, and looked at the ceiling with his head slightly raised.

Juanlu silently put the blindfold back on, rolled over, and turned his back to Jason.

The others, who had already turned their backs to Jason when he spoke, didn't pay any attention to him.

Seeing that the camp was so quiet, and no one asked what he meant by what he had just said, Jason lowered his head and saw the backs of everyone.

"Don't you want to know what it means?"

Quiet......

There was even a slight snoring from Pololo, who never woke up from Jason's words.

The quality of sleep was quite good.

Faced with such a situation, Jason's forehead couldn't help but jump. But I could only sigh helplessly, and I was about to tell it.

Simon walked in from the outside, still with some tools in his hands.

"You're back."

Jason looked at him and immediately said, "What do you guess I heard someone call us outside?" ”

"What?" Simon asked.

"The people out there call us the Demon Slayer."

"Why?"

Seeing Simon cooperate so much, Jason finally smiled and deliberately raised his voice twice to answer.

"I heard that it was named because we had cleaned up too many demons during this time."

"I thought he was going to fetch us some Demon Slayer or something. Listen to it. ”

Simon shrugged his shoulders and replied casually, skipping him and walking inside.

They had already cleared out the demons in four areas, and there were several areas where the demons had not had time to be cleared.

Mainly because in these areas, there will be fifth-stage demons patrolling from time to time, causing them to dare not be too presumptuous.

The matter of cleaning up demons is relatively low-key.

But they can't stand the large number of them, and they match each other very well.

Coupled with the cooperation of the puppet girls, the speed at which these demons can be cleaned up is too fast.

Especially the small team of the little ghosts, it has completely become a dimensionality reduction blow.

They have already divided into more puppet squads, and have even arranged two squads composed entirely of puppet girls.

Use Alka's mirror teleportation to quickly escape and join the battle. For these smaller puppet girls, neither their progress nor the integrity of their souls will cause much damage to the teleportation mirror.

The Arka only needs to be replenished every day or two.

And the puppet team is dedicated to cleaning up these imps and their level patrol teams.

This results in their high efficiency at killing the demons' underlying monsters.

It's like a bulldozer.

The demon race can become a cancer in the whole world, except because of the tumor mechanism of this abyss.

Or is it because those demon races that are infected by the powerful negative energy gathering place of the abyss are monsters that have both quality and quantity.

And things like demons, especially those cannon fodder at the bottom, don't have any words of death. Of course, you can't expect any discipline from them.

So they have a great advantage when starting a war, plus they also have the advantage of quantity.

It's hard to find an infinite and powerful base power like the Abyss in a normal world.

It is very easy to invade other worlds, and there will always be some weak worlds that are eaten alive.

But because of the ritual and the fact that this area is still partly under the control of the flower fairy, after all. As a result, these demons can now only possess tiny quantities and qualities.

Because the demons that can be teleported by each demon portal are relatively limited, among the portals that have recently appeared at this stage. It's hard to see a large number of imp-level demon units anymore, more of them are ordinary level demons, and some demon centurions whose strength has reached the fourth stage.

And the fact that they were able to clean up so many demons wasn't how long it took them.

In total, it only took them about a month.

Mainly because they spread outward around the fragrant land.

"These demons are getting harder and harder to deal with now, compared to the reckless fools before. Now there is much more order. Alka, who had sat up at some point, said.

Since they cleaned up enough demons.

Even Arka has killed several fourth-stage demons who are obviously able to hold a certain official position in the demon invasion.

Let these demons know that a certain environment is bad, and they begin to change.

The main reason is that the low-level demons at the bottom have been cleaned up a lot, and more ordinary demons have been replaced.

They always act in larger groups, and from time to time you can see multiple mid-level demons acting together.

Although their hunting efficiency has decreased, so has the corresponding efficiency of these demons in wreaking.

Because they had to get together in greater numbers and with more powerful demons.

Especially the area around the circle where the Arka and the others hunted.

Those who are a little farther away naturally don't have much impact, and they are more dealing with the personnel sent by the Church of the Two Gods.

At this moment, Lucilia, who was lying down and sleeping, suddenly sat up and opened her eyes.

"Someone's coming."

Hearing this, everyone immediately maintained a more vigilant state, but it was not obvious on the outside.

"It's the people of the Church of Our Lady, what are they doing here?"

Lucilia, who got the exact news, said a little strangely.

During this period of hunting, they had reached some kind of tacit agreement with the demon hunters organized by church personnel around the front line, and they cleaned up one by one.

Sail straight towards them, obviously something's wrong.

Otherwise, who would come to this kind of ghost place, who doesn't know, this has become their temporary camp.

Soon the boat stopped at the harbor, and the church personnel on it boarded their makeshift camp with some guards and a retinue from the Flower Fairy's side.

"I'm looking for Arka."

The voice was slightly louder, and Arka had already gathered himself and made it to the entrance of the camp.

The church member waved his hand to the attendant behind him and walked into their camp alone, turning his head to look around.

Although this camp is made of woods and reefs, it has to be said that they have been transformed very well by Arka and their own abilities.

It's already a small wilderness hotel.

This member of the Church was none other than the temporary head of the team of the Church of Our Lady who had been here before.

"Arathi, why are you here? Is there something going on? ”

He looked at Allah and asked, and Juan Lu next to him had already brought a few drinks and pushed them in front of everyone.

Arathi should be very busy on the front line now, and it seems that it will not be a trivial matter to come to them in person.

It stands to reason that there are no conditions or needs, and you need to find them.

Arati didn't beat around the bush either, looked at Arka and said, "We have a mission on our side that we want your teammates to participate in. ”

"What task?" Arka asked slightly warily.

He had a bad premonition.

And he has to be responsible for his own crew.

"After this period of research and reconnaissance, we have probably discovered the main reason for the frequent appearance of those demonic portals in the back.

It is a combination circle that covers the entire land of spirits.

The problem was that the area depicting the circle had the power to block the prying eyes of the outside world, so we had to turn our attention to the place that provided power to the entire large circle. ”

Where to power the circle? Cut off its source? It's a good choice indeed. Arka thought.

But if there is any area around this that can power the frequently opened demon circle?

It must be an area full of negative energy.

Arati looked at everyone and continued, "Obviously, you already know that the energy source of the circle is in the border of life and death not far away. And if we want to destroy the energy source, we have to take a certain risk to sneak in.

And we need to make strong members that we trust enough to become teammates. ”

Speaking of which, his needs are self-evident.

He just came to recruit Arka and them temporarily, so that they could follow them to solve this problem.

Once this problem is solved, the rear can finally be in a relatively safe and quiet place.

In this way, it will be easier for the front line to open the gap and complete this war and end it.

"To the border of life and death?" Arka asked with a frown.

Alathi nodded.

Although the source is solved, it is a bit disadvantageous for the alpha at this stage.

Because they have made a lot of money this month by cleaning up demons.

But this is only in the sense that interests are not mixed with any emotion, after all, their main target is the treasure of the Nafis family.

And in this area, they also received a lot of help from the flower fairy and his people.

They also have a very good impression of the people in the area.

Arka is personally inclined to go, because there may be a chance to get their hands on the last Holy Grail treasure by the way.

If you get it, it's basically equivalent to Vasteva's orange treasure at hand.

They collected another [Scepter]-level treasure.

I'm going to get it anyway, so why not take advantage of it now.

Thinking of this, Arka began to ask his teammates for their opinions.

Faced with such a thing.

Xia Daiti didn't think too much about it, and after thinking about the danger after a brief thought, they all agreed.

Then Arka asked, "This energy source can't always be in the depths, it would be too dangerous." ”

The border is shallow and deep, that's a completely different place.

At least they knew that the sixth-stage Master of Life had to face death because he had explored the depths.

Arati shook his head: "Of course not. Otherwise, if these cultists want to set up an energy source so easily, it is wishful thinking. ”

The border between life and death did not reach an agreement with these cultists, but simply wanted to attack.

However, it can also be expected that this time the cultists will not take this opportunity to attack, it will be truly unusual.

Since it is the periphery, then there is no reason for them not to agree.

After some reflection, Arka agreed.

If you have the chance, you can also get the treasure of the border by the way.

"Okay, then we'll meet at the Azure Fortress on the front line in a week." With that, Arati nodded and left.

The Azure Fortress was the first island they landed on, and it became an island fortress due to the war. However, the name of Azure has survived.

"Everyone, get ready, and we'll be gathering at the fortress in a week's time, so that we can play well. Take a break and we'll leave tomorrow. ”

Everyone nodded at Arka's words and did not refuse.

Next.

At dawn, Arka and the others had already packed their things and began to drive towards the front line of the war after riding the Feiyan.

Fortunately, the current front line is not the real border line as before, and it is only about half the size of a map.

Sitting on the Feiyan, Arka looked at the map in his hand. And the map in his hand is the map of the entire land of spirits.

Karuto, whom he marked, stayed at a location on the map, though he hadn't stayed there before.

The scum was teleporting almost everywhere, and Arka had seen him appear in other places several times, and the speed was clearly not right.

As a result, Arka doesn't even know exactly where he is, or where he often goes.

It seems that we can only come back to solve him after this matter is over.

Hurry up and help their side gain the upper hand, so that they can quickly push back on the battlefield to reveal the location of the hidden treasure.

Let them get their hands on the treasures of the House of Nafas.

Otherwise, you can only hold on like this until the flower fairy is resurrected, and the closer you get to the time of the flower fairy's resurrection, the surrounding situation will only become more difficult.

None of the surrounding neighbors wanted to revive the flower fairy.

Otherwise, Zehai will not be called Zehai at that time.

……

They sailed very fast, and it only took about 4 days to see the fortress from afar.

Despite its name, the entire wall is made of vines and black stone blocks wrapped inside.

This makes the city wall as a whole more defensible.

Their arrival caused the flower cannons facing their walls and some mechanical weapons to be aimed at them.

But it didn't take long for the people above to tell the difference, the muzzle of the gun raised, and the vines in front of them moved to reveal a space that led to the interior.

The crowd walked straight in.

The moment she walked in, Julia seemed to see something and was slightly stunned.

The others followed Julia's line of sight.

Not far away, two beautiful women with different hair were standing there, as if sensing Julia's gaze and turning to look at them.

There was the same change in expression as Julia, and the two sides just stood in place.

"You know the two of them?" Alka asked next to him.

If you meet an acquaintance, it's really too much of a coincidence.

If Julia can meet an acquaintance under such circumstances, then it is only possible that these two people came to the boundless sea many years ago.

Julia shook her head.

"No, those two are mermaids, and they are also mermaids who believe in life and receive the blessing of life."

In front of the two life believers, Julia, who is of the same race as them but has turned her back on life, appears.

This situation immediately made everyone think of a bad situation, and they immediately adjusted their position to block Julia behind them.

Seeing this situation, Julia smiled and patted the two people blocking in front of her and said, "It's okay, the believer of life, it's not driven by violence." ”

As soon as she finished speaking, the pair of sisters walked straight over.

A slight hint of arrogance could be detected in them, and they passed Arka and went straight to Julia.

"An abandoned ......" a young girl seemed to say something, and the mermaid next to her covered her mouth with a slap. Signal your friend to shut up.

Julia, who no longer believes in life and no longer follows dogma, looks at the two of them quietly.

"Sister, why did you give up the faith you were born with?"

The two wanted to ask about Julia, after all, merfolk are born believers in life, just like Arka on their home island.

Such a person does not believe that life is a great loss, and must have suffered a great trauma.

Julia didn't say much, but her ring shimmered slightly.

A transparent crystal with a changed shape appeared in the bosom of both hands, and a corpse was stored inside.

This corpse was the bones of the same merfolk they had found in the sea earlier.

Able to see her face through crystals.

Since they haven't been out to sea much, they don't have time to go to the church of the Church of Life.

The corpse had been wrapped in crystals and stored in her pocket ring.

Under the strange expressions of the two mermaid girls, Julia handed the crystal coffin to the two of them.

"Are you from the halls of life around here?"

"Yes, we come from the Temple of Life's Breath on Breeze Isle."

Julia nodded, and said to the crystal coffin, "Take a look, will it feel familiar." ”

The two looked closely, and the expression on their faces changed from panic to sadness.

"Master Meister, didn't you expect her life's journey to stop here?"

"I found her body, and now I return it to you. I hope you will be able to extradite her body and soul to the kingdom of life. ”

The two nodded, took the crystal gently, thanked them and hurriedly left.

Apparently they weren't in the mood to study Julia's problems right now.

Julia then led Arka directly and they walked inside.

"Why are the members of the Seed of Life here? Aren't they merfolk? Jason asked curiously.

According to their knowledge, the people of the Land of the Spirits hate merfolk, or members of the seed of life.

There seems to be a certain hatred between the two.

Although they don't know why.

It's going to be very strange to come here at this time.

"Who knows, maybe the previous statement is just wrong, it's just some rumors."

"Forget it, let's go in first, and we'll know when the time comes."

Now that the members of the Seed of Life have arrived, it is self-evident what to do.

As he spoke, Arka led the group into a tall flower house, which was supposed to be the area where they had gathered.

Soon they were received by two soldiers, who took them to a place of rest.

Wait for everyone to arrive.
