I entered the game in advance and found that I was invincible

It's not that demons are completely uninterested in art.There are also many cases where they fought over the collectibles they got from humans.

Since the victim was a famous painter, it is certainly possible.

Hey, what are demons?
Anna Song, who was riding beside him, asked cautiously while riding Jaber Walker.

She also felt that the power of the devil would occasionally emanate from Long Xiangtian.

Intelligent life from the abyss.

In fact, the difference between gods and demons is almost negligible.They just draw different sources of power, but both sides have various surnames.

In most cases, demons seek chaos, while gods seek order.

However, there are still many exceptions to this, so don't make random assumptions.

Wow. It's really complicated.

Just like humans.

Anna Song said to herself.

Is your ability still in the first stage?
Yes, no increase.

Children blessed by the Seven Stars are a unique rank.It is somewhat similar to Shaman, but with more powerful abilities.However, the number of abilities is limited to a maximum of seven.

These nights, she often dreams, and she is Ali in the dream.

How many contracts can you hold in the element?

On a.

She tried to summon Fire Elemental Salamander and Air Elemental Silph at the same time, but failed.

There seems to be some limitation..When Song Anna was thinking hard about her failure, Wu NiDing spoke.

The trail ends here.

They have now reached the edge of the forest.Long Xiangtian got off Jia Bowu and stepped on some bushes.

It must have noticed the ghosts and defeated them with its demonic power.

It's possible that its hiding place is nearby, so it's worth searching the area just in case.

Has he returned to the demon world?
Maybe the surname is not big.

The monsters who are gradually awakening are already competing for their own ranks.Unless it is one of the 72 demon kings, it is difficult to surrender to humans.

Hearing Long Xiangtian's answer, Zheng Shangxun raised his sword.

Since the boss said so, it must be right.

Long Xiangtian was not wrong.They could only be blamed for what happened at the Battle of the Canyon, for they had ignored his warning.

I need to be careful not to repeat the mistakes I made last time.

This is a good time for him to use the Ranger skill Trap Search.Just as Zheng Shangxun lowered his body, a small hole appeared in the middle of the nearby cliff, and a long muzzle protruded out.

boom!
A magic bullet shot out and went straight to Zheng Shangxun's forehead.

This was a very dangerous moment, but luckily he was already falling and could barely avoid it.

Cook!

Zheng Shangxun rolled on the ground, moaning.Seeing what happened, Long Xiangtian and U Nini both attacked the cliff.

Peng!Peng!Peng!Peng

No or wrong punctuation at end of paragraph
Colorful magic exploded in this area, messing up the muzzle of the gun.The situation has been resolved, Long Xiangtian went to see Zheng Shangxun.

Are you OK?

Yes, luckily I dodged it at the last minute.

If he hadn't performed the trap search at the beginning, he would probably have a hole in his head now.

Seeing Zheng Shangxun heaving a sigh of relief, Long Xiangtian also nodded.

His explosive speed is amazing.

Lee Jae-sung is an apprentice knight, so his defense is pretty high, but it also means he's a bit slow to react to flowing situations.

The same goes for Liu Kaiying and Song Anna.Their classes are mainly based on magic, so their physical fitness is very low.

Zheng Shangxun is to make up for the shortcomings of his teammates.Before Long Xiangtian found a capable ranger, he had to perform this role well.

Let's keep searching then.

They all nodded.Since there are some suspicious traps in this area, there must be something lurking nearby.

A group of people opened their eyes while looking for a hiding place.

Wheelick!
In a gust of wind, a black figure appeared in the dense forest.

What are you doing here?
It was a young looking boy with dark green hair and golden eyes.As if that wasn't enough to link him to their suspect, he also has a pair of black wings.

What about Mikalovic?

So you were looking for him too.Are you here at the behest of Lord Huntington?

Yes.

I really didn't expect, aren't you also a demon?
Earl Hunting is a follower of the God of Light.

Maybe he didn't even know that he was hiring a demon, but why would a demon act as a human messenger?Lohengrin could not understand the situation.

Answer my question first.

Mikalovic is safe, he is with me.

According to Loengrin, Mikalovic was gay.This is why he has never married a wife.Of course, he must not reveal this secret to Earl Huntington, because Earl Huntington regards homosexuality as a serious crime and will burn him alive on the stake.

So he wasn't kidnapped?
Although he was reluctant at first, in the end I was able to convince him.Only I can fully understand him.

Considering the count's kindness to him, Mikalovic wanted to complete his own work of art.However, Ruengrin knew very well that other demons had begun to awaken and wanted to protect his safety.

So this is ah.

If you understand the situation, please go back, because of the gunshots, there may be other people who came here.

The magic mechanical trap installed on the cliff was made by Lorengrin with the help of Mikalovic.

When Lueng Green politely asked them to leave, Long Xiangtian had to think about it.

He seems very considerate.

Among the demons, some people are indeed quite virtuous.

Hope he can resolve this peacefully.Even if he was defeated, Long Xiangtian might have the risk of alienating Mikalovic and making him uncooperative.

Do you think he's safe here in the forest?

Much better here than the village that has been frequently raided lately.I've seen a few suspicious people in Huntington's territory.

English notation exists
Suspicious person?Are they also wearing watches like this one?

Long Xiangtian showed him his left wrist, and Luenglin nodded upon hearing that.

Yes, they seem to be planning something.If you're on Earl Huntington's side, then Mikalovic may be in danger.

Loengrin explained the situation patiently, because he regarded Long Xiangtian as a compatriot of the Demon Race.

This was something he had never thought of before.Since he ostensibly belongs to the demon camp, he has always benefited from this misunderstanding.

However, just his words to confirm Mikalovich's safety were not enough to satisfy the earl's request.

I have to find a middle way.

Earl Huntington is looking for Mikalovic out of concern for his safety.If Huntington knew about it, he would understand.

Given the circumstances, there was no point in taking Mikalovic to Huntington.

Moreover, he also knows some key information.

For Long Xiangtian, Mikalovich's safety is not as important as eradicating the rebels.This means that Ruengrin is a better ally than the Earl, at least for now.

I have a way to make this problem go away.

What can you do.There is a handwritten letter from Mikalovic stating that he is eloping with a noble lady and they are in love.For this reason, this work of art had to be postponed.

Of course, in this matter, he had to ask the earl for forgiveness.

Hearing Long Xiangtian's thoughts, Lohengrin nodded happily in agreement.

I take your offer, it seems like a good solution to this whole dilemma.

Now, I have something to ask you for your help.

The positions of all clansmen in the Red Eagle Alliance.With Rungreen's help, he'd be able to find them quickly.

When he started to make some plans for the future, Long Xiangtian opened his eyes and gave a sharp look.

***
No or wrong punctuation at end of paragraph
After hearing Luenglin's latest information, Long Xiangtian didn't delay, and quickly returned to deliver the letter to the earl.

As he expected, Earl Huntington breathed a sigh of relief when he learned that Mikalovich was safe and he no longer cared about his whereabouts.

You did very well.

As soon as the count clapped his hands, a guard came with a bag full of coins.

A total of 100 gold coins is a lot of money for a mercenary.

Remuneration is given according to performance, as promised.Of course, he could choose a different reward.Some land and small estates if he chooses.However, in the upcoming war, coins are still more useful.

However, Long Xiangtian made an unexpected decision.

I want 50 gold, and the unfinished painting.

Mikalovic asked him to bring him the paintings he had been working on.

Earl Huntington stared at Long Xiangtian with stern eyes.

You're smart enough to choose a method that has the best of both worlds.

Handing over the canvas was not difficult for Huntington.After all, Mikalovic had already announced in the letter that he would not be able to work for some time.

While he may return someday to pick up a paintbrush again, until then the unfinished painting is worthless.

After receiving the reward, Long Xiangtian began to investigate the whereabouts of the Red Eagle Alliance.Of course, they haven't really formed an alliance yet, but they are destined to form an alliance because their goals are the same.

Didn't the gods find anything?

This is true, perhaps because there are too many people passing by.

Long Xiangtian's question put Wu Nini in a difficult situation.

The general principle is that spirits do not take part in human affairs.Unless a contract is signed with humans, the spirit will go to its own plane and become one with nature.

They are completely indifferent to what happens in the mortal world, unless there are monsters and other creatures that attract their attention.

I think there must be some nobles supporting the major families behind their backs.

Jung Sang-hoon, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke.

It is possible that a courtier has betrayed the Earl of Huntington.

Maybe so.

Then we should tell the Count.
It wouldn't make a difference if he knew.

Many aristocrats have already turned their backs on the royal family.Unless they have proof, pretending not to know is the safer bet.

If the nobles learn of the fact that their plans have been discovered, they may choose to move the timeline forward.

In any case, they are like mice trapped in a jar.

Loengrin and Aris were secretly monitoring Earl Huntington, so that the rebels would not have a chance to take action.

As the procession stared at the open field, there was the sound of wheels rolling in the distance.

Dugluk, Dugluk

Huh, isn't that...?

English notation exists
Long Xiangtian narrowed his eyes, watching the light brown carriage approaching.It was almost certainly a caravan's wagon, though it had been blended in as much as possible with the haystack above.There is something wrong with the merchant choosing to haul hay as cargo, after all, it is quite expensive to engrave a magic circle on a carriage.

Is he a smuggler?
It is true that some smugglers operate illegally, supplying goods that are considered contraband and originate from the Free Cities.They are at the heart of the so-called black market.

Weapons, contraband, slaves, spellbooks, and more.

They can trade anything as long as it makes them money.

Worth checking out.

Unlike Erica's business group, these smugglers will have no scruples, and they will deal with various criminal organizations.There's a good chance they have some kind of ties to the rebels.

Let's intercept that carriage.

Long Xiangtian jumped on the horse's back and kicked its flank.

babble!
The swift and fierce horse galloped forward swiftly, breathing in its mouth.

Seeing Long Xiangtian approaching extremely fast, the smugglers gave up their actions.

We've been spotted!

Fast, maximum speed!

The groom frantically whipped the horses, but the gap between the two kept narrowing.Finally, Long Xiangtian's fast horse had arrived beside the carriage.

Hurricane!
The vampire dagger flew out and pierced the coachman's rib.

Kuch
As the coachman fell, the carriage lost its command and began to spin out of control.

Seeing that they couldn't escape, the guards turned to look at Long Xiangtian, and then rushed towards him.

You impertinent wheat!

How dare you!
In the eyes of these guards, Long Xiangtian was just a cub with wet ears.

There was a fatal error in judgment.The guys failed to recognize the veteran standing in front of them, and the result was a grisly end.

Uhahak!
Kuhak!
Seeing that their guards were useless, the smugglers widened their eyes in worry.

Who is he?
The man looked more like a mercenary than a knight serving under the Earl of Huntington.

A young man with red hair.

Although they failed to recognize him, the smugglers chose to flee, because they knew that the other party's technology was so high that they could not outwit him.

Yeah!

Of course, this is just their wishful thinking.

After summoning Irene to take over the coachman's position, Long Xiangtian pursued at full speed.It didn't take long before he caught up and waved Grandia, causing several heads to fly.

Please, let me go!

The sole survivor begged desperately for mercy.

Long Xiangtian grabbed his neck and pulled him off the horse.

What's in your wagon.

That one
The man looked embarrassed and did not respond for a long time.He was naturally worried that he would be beaten as a criminal.Yet he had worse things to worry about just now.

If you don't answer now, you will regret it.

When Long Xiangtian showed him his vampire dagger, blood flowed down his face.

Hey! We're transporting slaves! They're all yours if you want them.Please be merciful...

English notation exists
The man bowed his head and fell to his knees.

Long Xiangtian signaled Zheng Shangxun to deal with him, and he went to check the carriage.

Is it some kind of concealment technique? .

English notation exists
He was pretty sure he couldn't hear anything coming from inside.This might still be a trap, so they asked Unini to remove the magic circle first.

It should be fine now.

Although she is a water elf, they always regard her as an adventurer like them.She is now taking the route of a purification mage.This is all because Song Anna signed a contract with her, allowing her to obtain a body.

pay attention.

Leaving everyone behind, Long Xiangtian took the lead to open the door.After seeing the situation inside clearly, his forehead began to wrinkle.

Only children.

To be precise, they are all young girls, so their fate is not difficult to understand.The first stop is a free city, and then some remote places, where they will be sold as slaves.

Some aristocrats with special taste would pay a lot of money for these young women.

Please don't hit me.

I won't ask for any more food.
The tattered children recoiled in terror and begged him for mercy.

Long Xiangtian came to a girl with brown hair who was sitting closest to him.

English notation exists
come here.

The brown-haired girl reached out and took his hand, trembling visibly.With a haggard look, it was obvious that she hadn't had enough.

Long Xiangtian patted her head to reassure her.

where u from?
Province of Erutonia.

The province of Erutonia is located in the southern part of Ionia.There is no doubt that she has been kidnapped and is now heading for the free city of Mediah.

What is the name of your village?
Dumbledore, however, is gone now.Some robbers came and burned it to ruins.

Even if she is released, now that her parents are killed, she has nowhere to go.

While the brown-haired girl was sobbing, Long Xiangtian took out an apple from the bag.

Here, eat this.He thank you.

She was hungry and bit the apple on the spot.

After Long Xiangtian gave each child an apple, he told them again.

You will not be sold into slavery.

really?
You'll just be sent to a merchant group in a free city where you'll be asked to do some chores.

Erica will not treat these orphans badly.At least he never said they wouldn't be treated like slaves.

After closing the carriage door, Long Xiangtian turned to look at the middle-aged man.

Who are you dealing with on the Earl of Huntingdon's side?
Ah, it's Mr. Andrew.

Andrew was a high-ranking subject in the earl's bodyguard, but he seemed to have a knack for smuggling orphans from the Ionian plain.

What about the families?There must be some people walking around with watches like this, who were also your customers?

When Long Xiangtian showed him his adventurer watch, the middle-aged man nodded frantically and replied.

Yeh. Yes, I wanted to sell some materials back then.

The latest developments in Ionia and any military weaknesses.Desiring to learn as much information as possible, the Hualang family took advantage of the many smugglers scattered throughout the kingdom.

These smugglers can easily obtain all kinds of information through their numerous contacts and customers.

Hualang family.

When Long Xiangtian heard what the middle-aged man said, he looked up at the sky.

He has seen this name many times on the sect ranking list.However, because they were so far apart in the past, he hadn't had the chance to face them.

By the time Isaac came to power, their family had disbanded
