It's just a standard of measurement, and it's not even fixed, but it's ridiculous that the beings in this world always like to use them as a criterion for judgment. The Lord of the Nine Hells took a step forward and continued softly, as if he already knew what the other party wanted to ask: "The same is true of Yugathira's standards, its simple will does not see anything, and can only be used as a standard according to the sporadic will emanating from its soul, but for you and me, it doesn't mean much, does it?"

"I hope so. Edward reached out to take Elena's hand, and stopped her from continuing to ask, "Then Your Majesty, can you tell me where we are going?"

"Oh, it's not far away, there's a Frontiersman's Guild right ahead. It's about a mile or more. ”

The Lord of the Nine Prisons was as excited as an old traveler: "The signature barbecue eyelash shrimp there is very good, you will like it." That's right, the so-called Travelers' Union. is a traveler's guild built on the Endless Ladder. You know, no matter where the world is, it's full of people who naturally love to move around and explore. Most of these people have the idea of treading the entire multiverse with their feet. So they formed a loose alliance. The headquarters are on the Endless Ladder, but the famous rivers, the astral plane, and here all have their chapters. You can think of them as inns or something. ”

"And then?"

"Then, we'll just wait here. Enjoy what they have to offer, don't worry, I'm a senior VIP member of the union with the privileges of the lowest discounts and the most complete service. ”

"Waiting? Good idea. ”

Edward's eyelids jumped a few times.

Although he was fully prepared for this operation, the Devil's King did make him a little ...... from the beginning of the table just now Incomprehensible. There was no army, no large-scale magical preparations, and even the doppelganger in front of him was a little anxious. Muddle through.

Isn't the message sent out yesterday a little too obvious? Isn't it a bit self-conscious to play this psychological trick with this powerful devil king? The contract signed before entering the portal has been reviewed one by one, and there is nothing unfavorable to him, except that he cannot terminate the operation on his own initiative halfway, and the rest is even a little sloppy - but the more so. The more Edward could not be lax or careless.

The rest of the journey was spent in these shifting thoughts, when he noticed that the Lord of the Nine Hells stopped. The so-called guild is already close at hand.

It's a little different from what I imagined.

In front of you are two steel gates that are 20 feet high. Countless willow nails in irregular positions are like large beetles crawling all over the surface. The rusty brownish-red and black hide it well within a few aerial roots and drooping branches. By the time the three approached, the seemingly heavy door had opened, pouring the terrible noise into the air around them.

The smell and the terrible noise, as well as the flickering glow, made Edward's brow furrow.

It was a familiar feeling, and for a moment he almost thought he was back on another plane.

The magical light filtered through the colorful crystals, turning the light of the entire hall into an exciting, strange block of color, and around twenty or thirty tables filled with dishes and wine glasses, all kinds of strange figures filled the space. A faint inexplicable mist mixed with sweat. Alcohol, perfumes. There is also the strong smell of all kinds of strange liquids, which surrounds the entire hall.

And at the end of the hall, on the bright stage, in the soft music full of ** atmosphere, there are several wonderful figures, almost defenseless, wonderful female bodies swaying and writhing, smooth skin coated with fine balsam, shining under the lamp, very visually tempting. The soft and boneless body constantly twists and turns, revealing a strange wild beauty.

"Isn't that interesting?"

The Devil King stepped into the smoky territory with great interest, and did not forget to give a little enlightening comment to the two astonished people behind him: "Maybe there are not many more interesting places in the entire multiverse than here." ”

Edward's gaze moved slightly, and he took in the slender horns coiled above the heads of the defenseless girls on the stage in front of him, the small black wings spread behind their backs, and the hooves under their feet, and remained silent—for he had also seen more than a dozen pairs of feathered wings emitting a faint white light on the platforms in front of him.

Angels, fallen angels, demons, devils, dwarves, gnomes, and monsters...... Guys of all races that human beings can think of and can't think of are around the tables, shouting and dancing, making the atmosphere of the audience always boiling and frenzied......

Elf, Drow, Fox Beauty, Bunny Girl...... Delicate stunners that humans had never seen before lingered in the shimmering rainbow of luster around them, holding large trays of various liquids, solids and other things, and pretending to open the "groping pig hands" that reached their buttocks, while biting their ears and discussing the price. From time to time, he will make more daring provocative moves, which is simply tempting to commit crimes.

"What the hell is this......"

Elena's half-doubted question drowned out a burst of maniacal laughter around her. The mouth of the guy who made the sound was like a directional trumpet, and he laughed strangely in a strange way, and most of his snake-like body was wrapped around a large pillar of steel, and his two short and thick hands were still holding half of the wine syrup, and from time to time he poured wildly.

"Most of the guys who travel on the World Tree are avid travelers who travel around a world and can't satisfy them anymore, so if you want to get enough out of their pockets in a casual way, you're going to have to have something unique, don't you?"

The King of Demons deftly cut through the gap between the crowd and whispered. But Edward could easily notice the glint in his eyes—all sorts of depraved souls, or perhaps the most attractive thing for a being of the rank of the Devil's King.

"But, but...... This is not the ...... of the Upper Realm How could there be so many demons?"

"Shhh Miss, there's always a lot of mystery in this world that we don't know about, isn't it?"

Astimors led the two to a staircase. And with a string of blinding flashes of magic. A man walked out.

If you look at it just from the outside, this humanoid creature over seven feet tall doesn't seem to be different from a human except for being a little taller, but he obviously wants to make himself a little unique to match his job status, at least thirty-four metal rings, steel nails through his forehead, the arch of his eyebrows. The bridge of the nose, the nostrils, the cheeks, and the lips are connected with seven or eight thin chains. He also held a large, exaggerated nail-headed scepter tightly in his hand.

"Who is it?" he slammed the big iron rod in his hand to the ground, and shouted to the king of the devil in a rough voice: "The second floor is the VIP area!

The Devil King reached out and took out three gems, and the hideousness on the latter's face immediately changed, and he snatched the thumb-sized things: "This...... It's proof. But you know that. The wind has been a bit tight lately, and there are a lot of customers upstairs, so it's not easy to find a location......"

"You're blackmailing, aren't you?"

"Eat with a mouthful, boss......"

So, in the midst of the two humans stunned, the Devil King could only angrily take out three gems before finally being released.

Of course, even if it's 'indignant'. Asmodeurs finally paid the same price - "yes, yes, yes, nerds from above." Whatever it is, it's all put in, but ...... You know. This, ahahaha, thank you for your generosity......" The handyman in a steel nail nodded with a smile and ran away with a smoke.

"Find a place to sit casually. ”

The King of the Devil sighed helplessly, and took the lead in finding a place for himself to rest - although the second floor of the store was just a circle of balconies on the wall of the hall, the furnishings were almost completely different from the first floor, and a layer of magical barriers divided the two environments into two worlds that were incompatible. The soft light, elegant full crystal tables and soft leather benches are enough to satisfy the most discerning and noble crowd, and although the exquisite spar railing can be seen from the bustling venue, the noise and distraction cannot be mixed into the melodious and melodious soothing music here.

Needless to say, a white-winged angel waiter had already brought three cups of drinks as transparent as emerald crystals, but Edward sniffled, and quietly pressed Elena's hand when the big devil picked up a glass - the thick fragrance in that cup could not hide a trace of astringent and bitter smell, Edward since he learned to 'extract poison * products', he would never forget this unique smell that belonged to Silent Tea, and judging from the smell, the ingredients in this cup of wine were enough to knock down an Inferno Dragon Beast.

"How long are we going to wait here?" he asked.

"It depends on how long our friend wants to consume," said the Devil King, taking his glass, "but I think we'll see in three days at most, and if he sees the trap, we'll have to make another plan." ”

"Are you sure he's coming?"

"It's the only gathering point for branches within three hundred miles of the neighborhood. It's also a good place for long-term guards, and if he passes by, I don't think you'll turn a blind eye?"

The Great Devil's smile made the Psychic Warlock frown. At this moment, a soft and beautiful voice suddenly interjected into the conversation.

"This friend has a lot of confidence in himself or a good thing, but if he is too conformist, or failure will be imminent. ”

Cun Zài, who made the sound, sat in a position one place apart, and on the crystal table in front of him, there were more than a dozen metal cards, judging from the precise distance and the way he was stacked in layers, he had been sitting there for a long time, but it seemed that none of the three people on this side noticed that he had been there.

"Ah, sorry, it's my bad habit of picking up on what others are saying. If you may, please don't mind what I say. ”

Noticing that the eyes of the two humans were focused on him, he looked up and smiled—his delicate facial features were perfectly proportioned, his dark skin was slightly red, and his long black hair was tied up in a smooth ponytail at the back of his head, all of which formed a handsome enough to make people feel good. It's just that in a pair of eyes, the pupil color is very light. It was almost as pale as a patient with an eye disease, and there were speckled flames dancing inside. And a small horn on the forehead pierced through the hair, stubbornly exposing its race to everyone.

A Tiefling.

Some have the dual blood of demons and various races. There are no races on either side, there are countless in the multiverse, most of them are unpopular with anyone because of their withdrawn, eccentric, and irascible personalities, but this one is a little different from his siblings at the moment - it's a little hard to tell, I don't know if it's because of that pleasant attitude, or because of the faint burning body smell on him that can almost be mistaken for a unique style of men's perfume.

"Oh. It's a miracle...... This somewhat slender body has an incomparably powerful soul, full of all kinds of fierce emotions that fight against fate...... It's worth paying attention to. ”

Just say 'don't mind'. His pale eyes rolled slightly, and he said something even more mindful: "Surprising, surprising, and this one." Equally gentle and powerful. But two souls who stoop to one place......"

"Good eyesight. ”

Edward's eyes moved slightly, and he whispered in admiration.

"No, no, no, it's not what I see, it's cards. Tieflin smiled slightly, turning the metal in his hand to Edward, one card depicting a man and a woman, while the other was a beautiful spinning wheel, surrounded by three women. It's just that the characters on each card are head-to-toe: "Using their rules for divination, it's a small game." However, it seems to be understandable a lot...... If you don't mind, why don't you try it, draw one of each, and let me check what you think a little bit?"

The Tevling people shuffle slowly and are personable. The trick was subtle, there were not many cards, only about twenty, but he danced nimbly on his lanky pale fingertips, and had already reversed positions countless times in an almost instant—in fact, Edward felt that he was more suitable to go to the casino as a dealer, and that this hand alone was enough to make a lot of money.

Then, he slowly let go, and the metal cards silently lined up in the air in a complex formation, with their backs to the three of them: "If you are interested, you can click on one each." ”

"It's better not to have anything to do with them," the Lord of the Nine Prisons glanced at Elena and said softly, "There is a proverb in the lower realms, if there is anything, go and catch a Tieflin, if he didn't do it, then he must not have time." ”

However, as he said this, he stretched out his finger and stepped back a little weakly.

Then, on that trajectory, a card spun automatically, and the combination of various orbs with an intricate structure on it made the Tieflings whistle in surprise. "It's so lucky, the world ...... Sir, even though you almost have the qiē you want, your wish will still be fulfilled by the luck of the light yì, tsk, and the miracle of zào, or is that what it is?"

There was some fuss in the sound, so Edward couldn't help but purse his lips slightly, and he also pointed at it casually, and hit one of the piles of cards.

The card was flipped over, and the sight on it was a strange one—a man with his hands tied was lying on a rock, his chest and abdomen cracked, his entrails spread out, and a huge eagle pecking at it. 'Oh, the hanging man,' Tiflin said softly, "don't worry, Your Excellency, it's not as terrible as you see, it means risk, it also means dedication, if you want to get what you want, you have to exchange it for some other important deposits, but you might as well remember that if you give, you must get ......" His voice paused, and the giant eagle on the card raised its wings, and the human internal organs were slowly retracted into the abdominal cavity, and the wound was healed, and nothing was missing.

Bending over like a curtain call, Tifflin continued, "Well, this lady, it's your turn. ”

This time, the flipped-up card was a hooked crescent moon hanging diagonally in the sky, and the azure sheen seemed to render the surrounding space as well.

"Deep Blue Moon...... It's a pity. This time, the Tiffling soothsayer really shook his head: "Miss, about your question...... Full of passive deception, like the ethereal moonlight, it looks infinitely beautiful, but you can never touch its reality, and besides, with regard to this card, it represents a goddess of love, but her lover died at the hands of her own arrows, so if you follow my advice, it is better to get out of unrealistic love. ”

Elena frowned, but didn't speak.

"Very interesting stuff. Edward suddenly smiled: "I wonder if you can give us a calculation, whether the next business we are going to carry out will be successful?"

"No problem, but please note that from now on, I'm not giving it away for free. Tieflin smiled similarly: "Moreover, I will charge according to the importance of your divination question, and now your question ...... Not. ”

Dozens of cards rotated in his hand, making a rustling sound, but before he could draw one, a loud bang put his efforts to waste.

The vibration was so strong that even though it came from the first layer, even the soundproof barrier on the second layer didn't have much effect, and the entire guild was moved!

The music stopped abruptly. The dimly lit hall was lit up instantly!

"Inspection, inspection! Everyone is divided into two rows, the left of the man, the right of the woman, and the man who is not male or female squats in the middle!" a loud voice screamed, and then jumped into the center, a sheet full of just wanted (to be continued......
