The Unemployed Demon Lord

"Merlin Lucifer!!"

After the old Taylor announced the last adventurer for Wrexham to participate in, everyone was stunned. Everyone's expression was stunned, and it was hard to understand why the third person would choose an unknown bastard.

Everyone looked at the elder Taylor and was silent for three seconds, and then there was a voice of astonishment in the crowd.

"what?!!"

"Ahem! Quiet! Quiet..." Old Taylor had a few black lines on his forehead, and he knew that other adventurers would react in this way.

"Why? The president seems to have always liked Mr. Merlin, but this kind of competition is not a child's play. Mr. Merlin is selected to participate..." Da Vinci in the crowd raised his eyebrows, "I don't understand."

"I don't understand either. Logically speaking, wouldn't it be more appropriate to choose me? I've been exercising my martial arts in vain recently." Rossetti felt a little bit disappointed, wondering where he wasn't suitable?I don't even know how a man like Merlin who relies on Alice is better than himself.

Rukia felt that her grandfather was suffering from dementia, so she couldn't help but walked up to her, and asked secretly, "Grandpa? Are you old and your head is not clear? The competition is only held every four years, and the three strongest talents must be sent out. .”

"I know, I'm not confused. Carl, Alice, and Merlin are all the result of my careful consideration. There will be no problem. This is indeed the optimal configuration." Old Taylor explained seriously.

"Grandpa, what are you kidding? In terms of the optimal configuration, Rossetti is more suitable, and she should take part in the competition. Mr. Merlin... What do you think?" Lucia stomped her feet anxiously, not understanding Grandpa's thoughts.

"Lukia, don't do this, I've made a decision and I won't go back on my word." Old Taylor said seriously, showing a bit of the majesty of an elder.

The adventurers in Wrexham below have already exploded, and began to talk about Merlin: "Is the president confused? Choosing Merlin to participate in the competition, isn't it a free gift?"

"That's right! Merlin, like that alcoholic Hobbs, is a black iron adventurer. What ability does he have to play?"

"It's probably chosen randomly by the president. Since you can choose randomly, it's better to choose me. Anyway, you will lose, and I can do it~"

Hobbs put his arms around Merlin's shoulders drunkenly, and said with a smile, "It's amazing, if you have a chance to show your face in public, if you become famous in the future, don't forget to return the wine money to me~"

Merlin pushed Hobbs away, walked out of the crowd generously, came to the old Taylor, and smiled meaningfully at him.

"You will have good eyesight!"

"Choosing me is definitely a wise choice."

No.20 The Subversive 1 of the Seven-Volume Adventurer Tournament Tournament Route Map of the Other Half of the Ruins

Copenhagen in the Kingdom of Denmark, where the adventurer's headquarters is located.

This organization has been established for hundreds of years and has a unique adventure culture.

Adventurers position themselves as a profession that advocates freedom, loves adventure, and is willing to help others.

This feature has continued to this day, constantly spreading the spirit of freedom and adventure.

For hundreds of years, someone suddenly raised his arms and shouted, and established the first adventurer's guild in history in Copenhagen to help people in difficulties earn rewards. This business system has become the foundation of adventurers, attracting Countless like-minded people joined.

This is the rudiment of the adventurer headquarters. At the beginning of its birth, it was to gather all the idle forces, get rid of the control of the country, and become a unique force in the world.

As the team of adventurers grew stronger and expanded to all parts of the world, the headquarters of the adventurers gradually gave up on adventure missions and fully assumed the role of a manager.

The adventurer headquarters is responsible for managing and evaluating adventurer guilds around the world. There is a department of the arbitrator association on the top floor, which is composed of five arbitrator members, and the leader is called the chairman.

Entering the Arbiter Association does not require strong strength, but leadership and management capabilities are required, as well as foresight and foresight to steer the development of the adventurer industry.

In order to prevent the uneven distribution of resources, all adventurers are not allowed to serve as arbitrators. Although the Arbitrators Association is separated from the adventurers, it is closely related to the adventurers.

The adventurer's guild's business status, mission success rate, and member strength levels will all be evaluated by the arbitration committee, and the appropriate level will be finally determined.

At this time, five members of the committee of arbitrators at the Adventurer Headquarters in Copenhagen were discussing the preparations for the adventurer competition held every four years.

As the chairman, Mr. Dawson sat at the head of the five-member meeting, with a deep expression, as if he was stumped by some problem.

Old Mr. Dawson used to be an adventurer, but he was gradually eliminated because of his lack of strength. Then he joined the adventurer headquarters, step by step, he reached the position of the chairman of the Arbitrators Association, and became the manager of the adventurers.

As for the other four arbitrators, tall, short, fat, and thin, unlike Dawson, they were not born as adventurers, but came from other industries, such as bankers, businessmen, sailors, and declining nobles. Administering the adventurers.

Mr. Dawson looked at the other four colleagues, cleared his throat, and said seriously.

"This competition will be held in Budapest, the capital of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. There is a huge Arminius duel field covering an area of ​​26 square meters. Adventurers have already begun to go there one after another."

The other four members nodded one after another. They had no objection to the choice of the venue. In the past, the competitions were held in different places around the world. The last time was in Holy Rome. Even the Pope came to watch the competition. It is understandable that the Hungarian Empire held it.

"This time I invited a lot of guests to watch the competition, including the Elf King Cinda Dill of the United Kingdom, Princess Margaret of the Kingdom of France, and Alfonso of the Kingdom of Spain. The results of the operation since its establishment are affirmed.”

The tall member nodded to the others and said, "Elf king? It's a good thing that the leader of the alien race is willing to participate. It proves that our efforts have been recognized by the non-human race."

The skinny committee member smiled, "Maybe we can set up the adventurer industry in the United Kingdom where foreigners gather."

"The Elf King showed us kindness for the first time. This is a good sign. Maybe we can take this opportunity to have a good talk." Old Mr. Dawson felt a little proud, and felt that under his own management, the adventurer industry was thriving.

As everyone knows, the reason why the Elf King is willing to come to the human kingdom is to meet Merlin and to adopt Chris as his adopted daughter.

"So... are you really going to increase the number of Zijin adventurers this time? Dawson, do you have a candidate in mind?" The fat committee member looked at Dawson, and heard that this time the right person was going to be selected to be promoted to Zijin adventurers. I don't know if the news is true or not?

"I do have this plan. There are five Zijin adventurers in total, and the number is indeed too small." Old Mr. Dawson paused and continued, "Nowadays, there are many powerful adventurers emerging. Injecting fresh blood into it, I really have this stamp."

"Then who is more suitable to choose? I feel that the overall gap is not that big..." the short committee member asked tentatively.

"Then it depends on their performance." Mr. Dawson said meaningfully, "This time our headquarters will prepare a unique prize for the champion."

"Oh? I don't know what it is?" the short member asked.

"Half route map of Asgard, the ruins of the ancient gods." Mr. Dawson said with a little pride.

As soon as these words came out, the other four people were shocked, this rare treasure is extraordinary.

Almost everyone who knows about history knows that the ancient gods were extremely powerful, and they even possessed various famous artifacts!

If you find the ruins of Asgard and the artifact inside, it will be an inestimable wealth!

"Dawson...this is a treasure that money can't buy!" The fat member's eyes widened in shock.

"This is no small matter! The ruins of Asgard..." A place that countless people dream of visiting! "The tall committee member sighed.

"Although this half of the route map is precious, without the other half it is an old and useless piece of paper." Dawson shook his head and said slowly, "But it is enough to use it as a competition prize."

"Where did you get this half of the route map?" The skinny committee member asked curiously.

"30 years ago, Kraken, the North Sea giant monster, suddenly appeared in the Norwegian waters, attracting a large number of powerful people from all over the world to the Kingdom of Norway. Many people know that Kraken guards the ruins of Asgard. At that time, everyone wanted to enter Asgard. Gard’s ruins can be said to have shown their talents but almost no one succeeded, and I was just a little transparent adventurer who followed the treasure hunting team.” Mr. Dawson paused and whispered, “But our president Very smart, using magic, ventured into the deep sea to find Kraken directly..."

"What!? Someone actually dared to dive into the deep sea and have a close encounter with the giant monster of the North Sea!?" The short committee member showed an unbelievable expression.

"That's why our president is also a daring person with high skills, who has the courage to do things that others dare not do." Old Mr. Dawson showed some admiration.

"However, he also paid the price for his recklessness. A week later, the body of our president was washed ashore, holding half of the route map of the ruins of Asgard in his hand."

Everyone sighed, thinking that Dawson's old president was lucky, but it was a pity that he gave his life for half of the route map.

"This half of the map seems precious, but it's not very useful. Who knows where the other partner is? If you don't piece together a complete route map, it's just waste paper..." Old Mr. Dawson said helplessly Say.

Is it really what he thinks it is?

Old Mr. Dawson would never have dreamed of...

The other half of Asgard's route map is in the hands of Merlin.

No.20 The Subversive 2 of the Seven-volume Adventurer Tournament and more

Today, the adventurers in Wrexham also officially set off to Budapest to participate in the adventurer competition.

Elder Taylor, the president, will go with the group and try to help with some chores, so that the three participating players have enough energy to deal with the competition.

Since Alice is going to participate in the Adventurers Tournament, Claudia will not stay in Wrexham, but will continue to follow Alice as a group of relatives and friends.

Although Claudia has been busy training Alice during this time, she has not forgotten her mission, and still has various dissatisfaction with Merlin, and has not forgotten to find a way to expose the man's "hypocrisy" mask.

However, during Alice's hellish practice, Merlin was always by her side, and she was still concerned about her wife's growth. This made Claudia unable to find a good excuse, so she could only choose to endure it.

Claudia didn't believe that Merlin could wear the mask of "hypocrisy" for a long time, and she would definitely show her feet along the way. When the time came, she would break them up and bring Alice and Chris back to Daxue Mountain. Wouldn't it be a matter of course?

As someone who has experienced it, Claudia thinks that Alice has been dazzled by "love" now, as long as she can see the essence of a bad man, she will definitely change her mind and follow her back to Daxue Mountain obediently.

Outside the town of Wrexham, the residents spontaneously came to see the group off, and the leader was the city lord, Earl Austin.

"Mr. Taylor, it's up to you this time. I hope you can reach new heights in the competition. Every person in Wrexham will be proud of you."

"Don't worry, Earl, this is our common honor, and we must live up to expectations." Old Taylor said politely.

"All your expenses along the way can be charged to me. As the lord of Wrexham, I hope I can do my best." Earl Austin said generously.

"You don't need to spend so much money. If you can, the Earl can just bring out the good wine hidden at home." Old Taylor said with a half-smile.

"It's all my family property, you old man has already thought about it?" Earl Austin smiled and pointed at the old Taylor, and said generously, "Yes, if you can enter the top three, I will definitely privately Take out all the good things you have hidden."

The two looked at each other and smiled. They were old acquaintances, so naturally they didn't have too many polite words, but they joked on the spot.

Not far away, Chris, who was held in Alice's arms, stared at her mother with curious eyes.

Sometimes Chris silently caresses Alice's hair, and sometimes silently caresses Alice's face with her small hands, as if she is looking for something?

Alice will take Chris with her on this trip. After all, there is no one to take care of Chris at home, and she is even more worried about leaving this little guy to others to take care of.

Alice noticed Chris's strange behavior, and asked suspiciously, "Chris, what's wrong? Why are you staring at mom all the time today? Could it be... something on my face..."

"No...not..." Chris hesitated to speak.

"Why is that?" Alice thought for a while, and suddenly realized, "Isn't it because my mother hasn't been around for a few days, so I can't recognize my mother?"

"Chris is not a stupid child, so she won't fail to recognize her mother? Mother's body is fragrant, you can tell it by smelling it." Chris said childishly.

"Then...why..." Alice frowned. Don't you think that a child as young as Chris has any troubles?

"Because my mother had a lot of injuries when she came back, I don't know if she's better now, I'm so worried..." Chris poked her two little fingers back and forth in confusion.

Alice was stunned for a moment, agitated by the heart-warming baby girl, and instantly felt a feeling of being in love.

She realized that Chris was still young, and to a child, mom and dad might mean the whole world.

What if there is any problem with Merlin?Chrissy might feel like the sky is falling and restless...

Alice smiled understandingly, touched Chris's little nose, and said dotingly.

"Don't worry, mom has recovered a long time ago. Those were just skin traumas before. It's nothing serious. Now mom is very healthy and can hold you high~"

Chris was lifted high, the hair on her head shook happily, "Yeah~ Mi"

"My little cutie~" Alice hugged Chris tightly, rubbing her cheek against her daughter's little cheek.

Claudia, who was behind her, was not used to it, and subconsciously began to feel sour in her heart. The students were all mothers, and she frequently passively ate mother-daughter flash bombs behind her. It was really uncomfortable.
