The Unemployed Demon Lord

As a result, Alice went to Merlin's room to search, but did not find Merlin's figure, but found it on the roof of the church.

Merlin glanced at Alice who was sitting next to her, and saw that her silver hair was blown by the wind in the moonlight, looking extraordinarily charming.

"I said I wanted to be alone for a while, what are you doing here?"

"Stay with you." Alice replied pretending to be careless. "Tsk!" Merlin was speechless with dissatisfaction, and said coldly, "If you are a Madonna mentality attack and want to take care of me, I advise you to put away your thoughts, I am fine now, and you don't need to worry about it.

"If you weren't feeling sick, would you hide here alone?" Alice turned her head to look into Merlin's eyes, as if provocative.

Merlin dodged his eyes, and said pretending to be calm, "I'm not feeling well when I'm alone. What kind of theory is this? Don't mention it, you seem to understand me very well. You, a bad guy, are far worse than me. "

"Although I don't know other people very well, but... I still know very well." Alice continued with confidence, "As a demon, the self-esteem is not generally high, and if you feel uncomfortable, you will become upset and irritable. People are fierce, don’t you like others to pity you? I hope that I will always be strong and invincible. I am so proud and arrogant, just like a pissed off kid...

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Merlin's face darkened, and the veins on his forehead twitched. In fact, it was really embarrassing to be poked by Alice in pain.

Although Merlin looked very serious with a stern face, he was still very shocked in his heart. After spending too much time with Alice, this stinky bitch already knows her own virtues so well! ?

"Ha, angry?" Alice sneered, and continued to hum and add: "I hit the sore point 5, so now I'm starting to get angry from embarrassment, hum~!"

"After all, I didn't want to take care of you. Don't think about it. I also want to come outside to get some fresh air. I just happened to be sitting next to you." Alice said angrily.

Listening to Alice's lame reason, Merlin's forehead ran down black lines, "Actually, it's better for you to stay away from me.

"Why?" Alice turned her head to look at Merlin, wondering why Merlin suddenly said such strange words.

"At the end of the day, I'm a demon and you are a human, so they are different, right?" Merlin said meaningfully.

"What are you talking about now? If we were different in the past, but now you are a demon or a human, it doesn't matter anymore. We...Alice hesitated for a while, blushing, "husband and wife" swallowed it back, Afraid of being complained by Merlin, "We are... companions, we work hard to live together, even if you are a devil, what does it matter?

"What I mean is that we were enemies in the past, and the grievances have not been resolved until now, right? In fact, do you really hate me in your heart?" Merlin asked tentatively, recalling how he bullied Alice back then, the grievances were not so easy to resolve right?

"I'm a forgetful person. It's been a long time, and I've almost forgotten it." Alice hugged her knees and said expressionlessly, "I am no longer a brave man, and you are not a heinous person." Big devil, now we are just adventurers who are busy every day, and I am so narrow-minded about the past, do I seem to be such a narrow-minded person?" "You are too naive, so believe me, if I treat you for some reason What if the sword is facing each other? Merlin asked with great interest, wanting to see how Alice would answer, "Swords facing each other?"impossible. Alice smiled and shook her head, feeling that Merlin's words seemed to be joking.

"Why are you so confident? I will really draw my sword against you." Merlin said with a serious face, thinking that if his life could not be guaranteed, he might not care about Sanqi 21 at all.

"Because I believe in you, I believe that you will not treat me like that." Alice looked at Merlin beside her, and added, "After all, if you don't look at your devil's skin, you are still a kind person."

"I am a kind person? I think there is something wrong with your eyes..."

Merlin complained lightly to Alice, but seeing her trusting him so much made her feel uncomfortable.

It turns out that this guy Alice never thought of the possibility that I would draw a sword against her, did she?

Such a naive idiot, if I wasn't by my side, Ken would have been tortured to death, right?

Although Alice trusts me so much, I am a little bit happy.

But it is really dangerous to stay by her side, like a time bomb, maybe someday there will be problems...

Merlin felt very guilty about Alice's trust in him, and he was not confident that he would not draw a knife on Alice when the curse was getting worse.

"What about you? Will you draw your sword against me in the future? Like when I'm extremely weak?

"Of course I will! I am a dreamer. Sooner or later, I will trample on your face and humiliate you." Alice immediately showed a fighting spirit, and still did not forget her innocence. actual delusion.

The veins on Merlin's forehead twitched, and the roots of his teeth itched in anger, and a sentence popped out of his mouth: "Go on dreaming, stinky girl...

the next day.

Just after dawn, the three of them planned to get on a bullock cart and go to the southern forest of Glenn Plain, and the priest also got up to see them off.

Merlin and Alice didn't have much rest last night, and their nervous state wasn't full, but it was still normal.

Because Alice was worried that Merlin would not feel well, she stayed with him all night last night, and sat on the roof of the church with the wind blowing all night.

However, old Akaron slept very comfortably last night, and he woke up radiantly. Although he was old, he was full of vigor.

"Friends, let's embark on a new journey! I can't wait to unveil the mystery of the altar with you!"

Merlin and Alice remained silent, watching the old Akalon dancing excitedly with expressionless faces. They probably didn't expect to bring the old man with them when they went to such a dangerous place as the altar.

"Why are you listless? Are young people these days so lifeless?" Old Akalon said with a puzzled expression.

"Then... Mister Caron, are you planning to go with us too?" Alice asked hesitantly, thinking that the altar is so dangerous, and Acaron is so old, it doesn't seem like a good thing to go with him.

"Of course, going deep into such a dangerous area, I don't feel at ease if I don't follow you." Old Akalon showed the demeanor of a senior, but in fact he didn't want to be left behind. a feeling of.

Merlin's expression became complicated, thinking that there might be unknown dangers when going to the altar this time, and taking old Acaron with him would inevitably distract him. After all, although this old man is a silver adventurer, he is actually just an ordinary person, more or less There will be suspicions of delay.

"But the altar is very dangerous, right? If you go with us, I'm afraid I won't be able to take care of you." Alice said very tactfully, and didn't explicitly say that Acaron would slow down the progress of the two of them.

"Yeah, you are 102 years old, you should stay in the church and wait for the two of them to come back." The priest saw Alice's potential and helped persuade her.

SF Mu Xiao" says

"Although I am old, I have unparalleled adventure experience. I will definitely use my experience to help them when I go to such a dangerous place as the altar. Besides, my adventurous spirit is still burning. If I shrink back because I am afraid of danger, it will be a stain on my career." Old Akalon was full of fighting spirit, but he gave others a feeling of being half-baked.

"Tsk!" Merlin was speechless impatiently, and he didn't hide his secrets at all, and said directly, "Old Mister Acaron, I know you are a model worker in the adventurer industry, but you are just an ordinary person. If we are in danger, we must protect your safety, so that we will not be able to meet the enemy with all our strength. It is good for me and yourself that you stay. Of course, I am not saying that you are slowing down, but that you have rich experience, which is good for the guild. Precious treasure, Alice and I will not be able to bear the responsibility if something goes wrong.

"Don't worry about the safety of me, a bad old man. For an adventurer, it is an honor to die in an adventure." Old Akalon was particularly stubborn, and changed the subject, "And isn't Your Excellency Merlin also able to go? Are you more than I am still a low-level adventurer, you are not afraid, what am I afraid of a silver adventurer?

"...Merlin's face turned black, and he was so autistic by the old Akaron's words that... he was despised!?

Isn't this old man just a silver adventurer? What is he arrogant?

Chapter 14: Into the Chamber of Secrets

After two days' journey, Merlin and his party arrived at the outskirts of the great forest.

The road has been completely washed away by the flood, and the altar in the center is clearly visible.

"That's the altar that the priest said, right?" Merlin stood up, looking at the towering pillars.

"It shouldn't be wrong, we've arrived." Alice nodded, feeling that everything was fairly calm, and there were no difficult dangers around her.

"The momentum is good now, let's rush to the altar with all our might?" Old Akalon said enthusiastically, completely oblivious to the destination of his bullock cart, and "rushing" was just an illusion.

In the end, Merlin and Alice still couldn't resist the stubborn Acaron, so they took him with them to the altar here.

Although the old Acaron is not very useful, he is a guide, and now it is not very easy to find someone who is familiar with France. "Mr. Acaron, if you encounter any danger, you should quickly hide in my Later, I'll make sure you're okay." Merlin said just in case.

"Your Excellency Merlin, you are a little too young and aggressive. Although I am old and physically unable to do what I want, I am still a more advanced adventurer than you. If I encounter danger, I should protect you.

Old Akalon was driving the bullock cart, and his tone was already dissatisfied. He felt that Merlin was just a black iron, and he didn't have the right to speak in the team, but he actually wanted to protect himself, making himself seem like a drag.

"Ah?" Merlin was stunned, thinking that the person who is qualified to protect him in this world probably hasn't been born yet, right?The old man said in a loud tone, "You seem to have misunderstood, I mean you will be safe hiding behind me, so that we can go all out against the enemy.

"Don't worry, I will definitely not cause you any trouble, but if you are in danger, it is obviously safer to hide behind Your Excellency Alice, right?

Old Akalon didn't really believe in Merlin's strength, and what he said meant to emphasize Alice's right to speak in the team.

It is impossible for an adventurer of the black iron level to be comparable to the Mithril boss.

Old Akalon felt that even if he held back the team, it was Alice who had the qualifications, not Merlin who was a black iron adventurer.

Alice became embarrassed, thinking that it was useless to hide behind her. If she encountered an enemy that was too strong, she had no choice but to ask Merlin to help. It was a good thing that Merlin was willing to protect old Acaron.

"Old man, trust me, I'm really strong." Merlin stepped forward and patted Akaron on the shoulder, and said with a serious face.

Old Akalon didn't speak, but turned his head to look at Merlin, his eyes were full of confusion, as if to say, Your Excellency Merlin, are you kidding me?

I am a dignified Shenyin adventurer, and I need the protection of six black irons?

If things go on like this, I might lose my fortune at the end of the year and become the laughing stock of the industry...

The few people arrived at the altar smoothly. They didn't encounter any attacks on the way and looked very calm.

I thought I would encounter some unknown danger, but it turned out to be much safer than imagined.

However, when several people thought this way, they found more than a dozen unrecognizable corpses hanging on the tree in the center of the altar, and several of them had been completely mutilated. ". Guangmu's novel blood drenched the withered tree trunk, and solidified into a black thing on it, which looked quite strange.

Seeing such a bloody scene and smelling the rotten smell in the air, Alice suddenly had the urge to feel sick and retched subconsciously.

"What's going on here?" Merlin asked without changing his expression. The bloody scene in front of him didn't affect him at all.

"This group of people is probably the expedition team that the priest mentioned earlier. They came here first, but they were in danger. It seems that no one survived... Old Akalon said in a hoarse voice. It has been a long time since he saw such a bloody scene." The scene, which reminded him of the cruelty of the adventurer industry, is always accompanied by danger.

"So... Alice forcefully suppressed her disgusting impulse, and said with a worried face, "There are indeed dangerous things in the altar, we need to be more vigilant. "

"Let's check the surroundings first to see if there is any special place, maybe we can figure out what happened to this group of expeditions?" Old Acaron suggested.

Merlin didn't look around for the special features of the altar like Alice and Acaron, but looked around at everything around him.

In the end, Merlin fixed his eyes on a towering tree in the distance, and sighed in his heart that besides such an ancient giant tree, he also wondered whether there was such a tall tree here before entering the big forest?

Merlin stared at the giant tree, thinking very puzzled, if there was a towering ancient tree here, then he should have seen it before entering the altar, but there didn't seem to be such a tall tree just now, where did it suddenly appear? . However, before Merlin had time to think deeply, a strange voice came from Akaron, "Come quickly! There is a door to a secret room here, and it looks like it has been opened!"

After Merlin and Alice heard the news, they quickly came to Old Acaron's side, and found that there was indeed a hidden stone door, which had obviously been pried open.

In... maybe the inside of the altar? The old Acaron speculated, and then asked, "What should we do next?"Now that we found the way to the core of the altar, it's better to go in and investigate, right?Perhaps the three oldest blood races mentioned by the priest have also been here. "

Alice looked at the stone door of the secret room, a little undecided, and secretly asked Merlin, "What should I do? Do you want to go in and have a look?

Merlin thought about it, and felt that since everyone has come, he must not return empty-handed, and must investigate the mysterious altar: "Go in.

The three entered the secret chamber of the altar together.

Merlin and Alice walked in the front, holding torches and always beware of danger rushing out of the darkness ahead.

In this small environment, old Akalon began to show a timid look, silently hiding behind the two of them, looking at everything around him with evil eyes.

In fact, old Akalon has never experienced any dangerous or extremely difficult missions.

Those 999999 missions were all low-level missions without exception, basically helping neighbors find cats, or running errands to buy things.

C”r Mu Xiaowan

Blindly going deep into the altar was probably the first time in his life that old Akalon was exposed to a mission with a very high risk factor, and it was also the most dangerous place he had ever been to in his life.
