[Transmigration Book] Blackening Paladin
Chapter 97
Jian Lu sat in the guest room of the City Lord's Mansion. Although it was also a stone room, its style was infinitely higher than that of Thor's.
He didn't sleep, but was thinking about things, and slowly recalled the things from the past few days until he met the people in the central city today, which made him finally confirm the guess in his heart. There are eight out of ten things about the city.Nine is related to Hines' awakening.
Hines may be in that magical forest that humans rarely set foot in.
During these days, while he was groping for the differences in the Lost Continent, he also speculated about the situation of Hines.Later, after experiencing the mob riot and siege of the city, as well as various actions in Fork City, and the reaction of the so-called central main city, everything pointed to the center of the Lost Continent—the Demon Forest.
The abnormality of Molin appeared about two months ago. At that time, they just teleported to the Lost Continent through space, and then he and Hines separated, and Hines happened to be in the awakening stage.
The Golden Dragon is the top powerhouse in Olaven Continent, as long as Hynes can successfully awaken, even the dangerous Demon Forest will hardly be able to harm him.If it was because Hines was in the demon forest that caused the king worms to change, it would make sense.
Combining various signs, it proves that Hines should be safe at this time.
This guess made Jian Lu heave a sigh of relief. When they came out of the space transmission channel, he fell into a coma directly due to his severe injuries, and Hines never woke up at all because of the awakening stage, which made him worry that Hines would During the awakening period, it was eaten by the monsters as food.
Now it seems that even an unawakened golden dragon is not easy for little bugs to chew on.
As for why Hines didn't come out of the Demon Forest, if it wasn't that he hadn't fully awakened yet, then there was something trapped in the Demon Forest.In this regard, Jian Lu felt that maybe he should take a trip, and the arrival of the people from the central city today made him understand that this is an opportunity.
Just as Jian Lu was thinking about it, he suddenly covered his mouth with his hands and coughed a few times. The temperature in the desert night gradually dropped, especially in this kind of stone house. If you don't have a strong body, you can't bear the cold.
Jian Lu couldn't help wrapping the animal skin blanket tightly around his body, his face was pale in the dim light.
【Master, are you okay? 】The elemental spirit asked with some concern.
"It's okay, just leave this world." Jian Lu didn't care much, touched the smooth head of the elemental spirit, and said: "Tomorrow we may have to leave with the people in the central city, and if we need to fight at that time, we have to It's up to you to help."
[No problem, just leave it to Lulu. 】The elemental elf patted his small green chest and said.
There was a little smile in Jian Lu's eyes, and he found that the elemental spirit is really a good guy who endures hardships and stands hard work. During the day, he competed with the magician in magic power, and it was also thanks to the help of the elemental spirit that his magic pressure was comparable to that of the magician. The soldiers are not bad, only then can they be deterred.
He is now a high-level magician, and his experience in the Devil's Prison allowed him to break through from an intermediate magician to a high-level magician in one fell swoop.Although it is only a small level, for many people from intermediate to advanced level, not only accumulation, but also comprehension is required.Jian Lu's comprehension is good, and he also has elemental spirits to help accumulate magic power, so the speed of practice is so fast. At his current age, this speed of practice is already called a genius.
Every time a magician cultivates a level, the accumulation of magic power and understanding required are different. It is a very important process to practice from an advanced magician to a mage. .It is because of the help of the elemental spirit that Jian Lu accumulates magic power so quickly, but it is impossible to advance to the rank of magician in a short time.
Therefore, during the daytime, Jian Lu's magic pressure is indeed a little fake, but when it comes to the control of magic power and magic, he feels that he is not inferior to the magician of the Lost Continent. In terms of combat power alone, he can compete with that magician. The reason for this is the systematic education he received in the Temple of Light and Remelas, and the inheritance of magicians in the Lost Continent is really too little.
Meditating until dawn, Jian Lu opened his eyes when the morning light was slightly lit.
There was a knock on the door, and when the people inside agreed, the people who came in opened the door and came in.
It was the steward of the City Lord's Mansion who came in. He came to deliver breakfast to Jian Lu himself, and said by the way, "Your Excellency, City Lord Frian and some adults from the central main city invite you to go."
Jian Lu didn't even look at the breakfast, got up and said, "Let's go."
The steward took a look at the breakfast. It was cooked with the meat of the most fragrant and tender devil insects, without the smell of low-level devil insects. This kind of devil insects grow on a kind of frankincense stone, so their meat naturally contains There is a kind of frankincense, which is the staple food that nobles like, and only people with high status can enjoy it, and those second and third class people can't eat it once in their lives.
Seeing this guest without even looking at him, the manager didn't understand what he meant for a while, so he went out with him silently.
When he came to the hall of the City Lord's Mansion, Jian Lu saw the group of people from the central main city that he saw yesterday. Among them was a tall and first-class person. There was a dark green scar on his face. When the monsters attacked the city, Jian Lu had seen him several times from a distance. He commanded the battle on the city wall, so he was considered a pretty good city lord.
Except for Hawthorne, the group of people from the central main city looked at Jian Lu with some unkind eyes. They still remembered the provocation of this man yesterday. It has been a long time since the people in the central main city have been provoked like this, but they have not called back. Well, if it wasn't for the emergency in the magic forest this time, Hawthorn would not have suppressed them from teaching this arrogant magician a lesson.
Jian Lu ignored the gazes of these people.
His ignoring attitude is more hateful than provocation, and it can easily ignite the anger of others.
When Argel was so angry that he was about to draw his sword, his companion female fighter——Agnes stopped him, and said in a low voice, "We'll talk about it after we enter the Demon Forest."
Alger turned his eyes slightly, understanding what Agnes meant, and stood aside with his sword drawn, looking at Jian Lu with some malicious intent.
"Your Excellency, I'm sorry for inviting you here yesterday." Furian rubbed his hands, feeling somewhat short of breath from Jian Lu's cold appearance.
He heard the words of the witch yesterday, so he didn't go to see the desert hunter who was invited. Now he saw that this desert hunter was not simple. It made him feel a little regretful that he believed too much in the witch's words, so he really didn't go to meet him. man, give him enough respect.
Jian Lu nodded to him, without much expression on his face, and then looked at the wizard Hawthorne.
Hawthorne knew what he meant, so he didn't go around in circles, and went straight to the point, "I have invited you here to tell you something. The great witch divination has something to do with this devil's riot. So they sent us over to look for the first-class people from several cities including Fork City to enter the magic forest to find the reason for the demonic insect riot. We found 16 people including you."
Jian Lu looked at him indifferently.
"Arrangements have been made in the main city. At that time, you will enter the magic forest with the warriors in the main city." Hawthorne said, and added: "This is a mandatory task in the main city, the result of the great witch's divination , if you can complete this mission, you will become first-class residents of the central main city."
These days, Jian Lu learned that in addition to fighters and magicians, there is also a very mysterious race in this world, that is, witches.This is similar to the orc priests, and even made Jian Lu feel that these so-called witches are actually another branch of orc priests. Presumably there should be orc priests here on the battlefield of the lost continent.
In the Lost Continent, the shaman has a superior status. Every time the shaman does divination, everyone is in awe. As long as the shaman divination comes out, humans must complete it unconditionally. If they refuse, they will become the enemy of all humans in the mainland.
Therefore, Jian Lu just raised his eyebrows, nodded and said, "When will we leave?"
Hawthorne was not surprised by his straightforwardness. If he refused, he would have doubted Jian Lu's origin. Only people from the Legendary Continent would take Wu seriously.He also didn't expect that Jian Lu would lurk among the third-class people in Fork City, and only exposed himself after touching the various rules of the Lost Continent.
"If your Excellency has no objections, then let's start now." Hawthorne looked at him, "Arrive at the Demon Forest earlier and solve the problem earlier, so as to reduce casualties and restore the Lost Continent to normal."
Jian Lu grunted, pulled up his hood, and expressed that he had no objection.
Immediately, Hawthorne said goodbye to Frian, and left Falk City in the morning light with the people from the central city and Jian Lu.
After Frian sent them away, he was puzzled and couldn't help but ran to look for the wizard again, asking: "Your Excellency, Your Excellency Hawthorne has left, don't they need to stay for a few more days, and look for a few more people? This time, we are going to enter the Demon Forest, aren't we afraid of finding the wrong person?"
The witch raised his eyelids and glanced at him, as if looking at a fool, "Hawthorne came here with the divination from the great witch, and he should have something from the great witch in his hand, so he can tell the truth from the truth. I think Hathorne was in the street yesterday. Only then did you get instructions from above, and you will be asked to bring that person back to the City Lord's Mansion."
After hearing this, Frian once again had a deep understanding of the mysterious and unpredictable methods of the great witch in the central city, and he couldn't blame the people in the central city for being aggressive and quick.
*****
Three days later, there were 15 more people in their group.
These 15 people are the first-class people in the other five cities adjacent to Fork City. Among them are desert hunters, residents of the city, five magicians, and ten fighters.
The 15 people waited for three days in a sandcastle in the desert. When they saw a group of people from Hawthorne appear, they showed a happy look on their faces, and there was a bit of flattery in their expressions.
Although this group of people are all first-class people, the first-class people in third-rate cities are different from the first-class people who go to the central main city. After knowing that if the mission is successful, they can enter the main city and become first-class residents. The group of people was full of enthusiasm. Even though they knew the danger of the magic forest, some people still joined with a fluke mentality in their hearts.
Seeing the people in the central main city followed by a pale-faced magician, the 15 people's eyes became a little more vigilant, and they knew in their hearts that the people in the main city should have found it from other cities.
"Now that the number of people has arrived, let's go." Hawthorne said, took out something like a gourd flute, and played it.
It was a very mysterious movement. Jian Lu couldn't help but glanced at it, felt the vibrations in the air, and immediately understood that it was a music score for summoning magic insects, and that flute should be an insect flute. Alchemy finished product.
There are no monsters in the Lost Continent, only monsters. It is also a historical inevitability to produce bug trainers and various alchemy products related to bugs.
Jian Lu couldn't help feeling interested in studying the history of this continent.
Amidst the sound of insect flutes, a group of black and dense things appeared in the sky. It was not until they landed in front of him that Jian Lu could clearly see the appearance of these monster insects. They were very big, not like insects, but like monsters .Their appearance is a bit like birds, invertebrates, and their wings are net-shaped wings unique to insects, which can set off a wave of wind and fly freely in the sky.
The monster landed on the ground, and its two red compound eyes stared quietly at the person.
They are a kind of flying demon insects with extremely gentle temperament, easy to be domesticated by humans, and they can be used to travel through the desert.
Hawthorne and the others jumped on the backs of the demonic insects one after another, and when everyone stood still, they blew the insect flute in their hands again, and the demonic insects flew up into the sky again, heading far away. flying away.
Jian Lu stood on the back of the monster worm, and when the monster took off, he added a magic shield to himself. Although the temperature in midair was low and the wind was strong, it didn't affect him at all.His behavior also made several people around him couldn't help but glance at him, thinking that he really didn't know how to live or die, and wasted magic power at such a time.
Jian Lu ignored the eyes of others, and stood on the back of the monster.
After flying for a day, when the sky was about to darken, everyone landed in a sandcastle in the desert to rest.
This kind of sandcastle is specially provided for travelers. No one takes care of it. Everyone who comes here to rest automatically maintains it. It is built with a colloidal liquid of magic insects, which is a must in desert travel. Few places to rest.
The task Jian Lu was assigned was to kill the colloidal monsters needed to maintain the sandcastle. It was not far from here, only about ten miles away.But now the sky is getting late, and it will soon be dark. There will be various nocturnal magic insects appearing on the desert. This time is much more dangerous than other times.
Jian Lu glanced at the person who assigned him the task, then at Hawthorn who was talking to someone not far away, turned and left without saying anything.
Alger came over and patted the person who assigned the task, "Buck, do you think that kid can come back safely?"
Buck shrugged his shoulders, "Who knows? I found out in the past few days that his body seems to be sick, and he vomits blood every day. I don't know what disease he has. His face is as pale as a ghost. I hope God bless him , let him not even be able to subdue a few low-level devil insects."
"If that's the case, it proves that he's not the one who the great witch did the divination." Alger sneered.
The two said a few words, and then they separated to make a tent, but their eyes kept looking at the direction where Jian Lu disappeared. As long as the man hadn't returned after a magic hour, they could collect his body and accept it by the way. his legacy.
Unfortunately, after half a magic hour, Jian Lu, who had hunted ten monster worms, came back. He threw the monster worms to the others and sat aside.
The person who set up the tent opened the abdominal cavity of the ten monster insects that Jian Lu hunted back, took out a transparent pouch the size of a watermelon inside, and poured it on the wall of the sandcastle. , making the sand wall as hard as a stone, resisting the attacks of night monster insects, and it can last for three months.
Seeing it, Jian Lu felt more and more the wonder of the Lost Continent. Sure enough, every world has its own survival mode and law.
There are many people and strength, and the division of labor is clear. Soon, dinner will be ready.
Jian Lu looked at the grilled monster worm in his hand. It tasted a bit like monster meat. If he didn't know the original appearance of the meat, he would have thought it was monster meat.He took a bite, and the meat was very tender, with a peculiar aroma, which should have been added with a kind of Titian seasoning.
At this time, a person came to him and sat on the sand bench with him.
Jian Lu looked up and found that she was a magician girl, about seventeen or eighteen years old. She had a cute round face and a sweet smile. There was a light blue line from the left cheek to the corner of her mouth, which added a little bit to her. flirtatious.
"Hello, my name is Quentina." Seeing the other party looking over, the girl introduced herself a little shyly, "I saw you coughing up blood during the day, are you okay?"
Seeing the kindness in the girl's eyes, Jian Lu calmed down, "It's okay."
Quentina caught his expression and found that this person is not difficult to get along with. She couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and said in a low voice, "Do you have a bad appetite? You should eat more, or your body will not be able to support you and your condition will worsen. However, I heard that there are well-finished healing potions in the main city, you can go and have a look at that time." She paused, and said to herself: "If we can return to the main city from the magic forest safely words of the city."
Jian Lu glanced at her, did not speak, and put away the magic insect meat in his hand.
It seems that because of the opportunity of this conversation, Quentina quickly became familiar with Jian Lu. To be clear, it should be that Quentina herself is familiar with Jian Lu, and she likes to follow Jian Lu when she does things. When ordered to hunt and kill demonic insects, she also accompanied them very loyally.
However, after accompanying Jian Lu several times, Quentina realized that Jian Lu's strength was not as weak as it appeared on the outside, and his strength was higher than all of them, especially when killing the devil insects That kind of sharpness is even worse than those powerful desert hunters.
This man is full of mystery.
Quentina was originally close to Jian Lu, but she couldn't stand those people bullying him, and wanted to help him as much as she could, and it would be worth living for more than ten years.Anyway, with her level of mission in Molin, she definitely can't make it out alive, so she can live the rest of her life as she should, and it's okay to show some love.
But she didn't expect that Jian Lu just looked weak, and his strength was not weak.
Especially after they had been flying for half a month, they encountered a group of high-level demonic insects—giant scythes, and everyone fell into a bitter battle.Quintina was no exception. When she was almost cut in two by a sharp scythe, a pale hand grabbed the front of the scythe and dragged her out.
Quintina was covered in sweat and sand, her magic power was exhausted, and her breath was chaotic. She could only helplessly collapse on the ground, watching the young man standing in front of her wave her hand, and a wall of fire blocked the attack of the scythe.
She was dragged staggeringly by the young man, and fell to the ground several times. She could only watch the young man protect her and escape again and again.
Only 46 people escaped in the end.
Originally their team had 60 people.
As the weakest magician, Quintina was only a junior magician, but she managed to survive. Eight magicians died under the scythe this time, and all of them were intermediate magicians.
Everyone looked at Quintina strangely.
But even though he was in a panic at the time, someone still noticed that Quentina was able to escape successfully because Jian Lu saved him.Compared with the embarrassment of other people, this person was still methodical during his escape, and his clothes were not even wrinkled, which showed his strength and strength, and he could fight Hawthorne.
Those magicians from other cities felt a little regretful. If they knew Jian Lu's strength at first, they would not despise him because of his weak appearance, and would try to curry favor with him earlier than Quentina. Maybe he can take them away next time.
"This group of trash!" Alger gritted his teeth. If it wasn't for the people from this third-rate city, the people in their main city wouldn't have had to die so many people to protect them from fleeing. Damn it!
After entering the Demon Forest, if this group of people are still so useless, they can just die!
"Why are you angry?" Agnes said nonchalantly, "A first-class person in a third-rate city is only at this level. But that man named Gruffard, Hawthorne said it well, he is very strong, so don't go there in the future." provoke him."
Alger snorted.
Quintina sat there in a state of distress, looking at the young man who was roasting the meat of the devil insect, her eyes changed.
Jian Lu handed her a piece of roasted meat.
Some healing potions were added to the meat, and the aroma was tangy.
Quentina took it, said thank you softly, took a bite of the worm, and suddenly her nose felt sore.
Although more than a dozen people were killed or injured, they still did not stop their journey, and they still headed towards the Demon Forest the next day.
As the distance from the magic forest got closer, the desert was no longer lifeless. Jian Lu saw the grass growing on the ground. Although the color was a bit bad, it was really grass.This proved that he was close to the Demon Forest, which made him a little excited.
However, the closer they were to the demon forest, the higher the level of the demon insects, and their lethality became stronger and stronger. They even encountered the insect king. Fortunately, the insect king ignored them and let them escape successfully.However, in the next journey, people from the central main city came to meet him, and Fang arrived safely in front of the Demon Forest without any casualties.
Jian Lu jumped off the back of the flying monster, stood in front of the monster forest, and looked at the vast and boundless forest, feeling a little excited.
It's finally here.
He didn't sleep, but was thinking about things, and slowly recalled the things from the past few days until he met the people in the central city today, which made him finally confirm the guess in his heart. There are eight out of ten things about the city.Nine is related to Hines' awakening.
Hines may be in that magical forest that humans rarely set foot in.

Now it seems that even an unawakened golden dragon is not easy for little bugs to chew on.
As for why Hines didn't come out of the Demon Forest, if it wasn't that he hadn't fully awakened yet, then there was something trapped in the Demon Forest.In this regard, Jian Lu felt that maybe he should take a trip, and the arrival of the people from the central city today made him understand that this is an opportunity.

【Master, are you okay? 】The elemental spirit asked with some concern.
"It's okay, just leave this world." Jian Lu didn't care much, touched the smooth head of the elemental spirit, and said: "Tomorrow we may have to leave with the people in the central city, and if we need to fight at that time, we have to It's up to you to help."

*****
Three days later, there were 15 more people in their group.
These 15 people are the first-class people in the other five cities adjacent to Fork City. Among them are desert hunters, residents of the city, five magicians, and ten fighters.
The 15 people waited for three days in a sandcastle in the desert. When they saw a group of people from Hawthorne appear, they showed a happy look on their faces, and there was a bit of flattery in their expressions.

The monster landed on the ground, and its two red compound eyes stared quietly at the person.
They are a kind of flying demon insects with extremely gentle temperament, easy to be domesticated by humans, and they can be used to travel through the desert.
Hawthorne and the others jumped on the backs of the demonic insects one after another, and when everyone stood still, they blew the insect flute in their hands again, and the demonic insects flew up into the sky again, heading far away. flying away.
Jian Lu stood on the back of the monster worm, and when the monster took off, he added a magic shield to himself. Although the temperature in midair was low and the wind was strong, it didn't affect him at all.His behavior also made several people around him couldn't help but glance at him, thinking that he really didn't know how to live or die, and wasted magic power at such a time.
Jian Lu ignored the eyes of others, and stood on the back of the monster.
After flying for a day, when the sky was about to darken, everyone landed in a sandcastle in the desert to rest.
This kind of sandcastle is specially provided for travelers. No one takes care of it. Everyone who comes here to rest automatically maintains it. It is built with a colloidal liquid of magic insects, which is a must in desert travel. Few places to rest.
The task Jian Lu was assigned was to kill the colloidal monsters needed to maintain the sandcastle. It was not far from here, only about ten miles away.But now the sky is getting late, and it will soon be dark. There will be various nocturnal magic insects appearing on the desert. This time is much more dangerous than other times.
Jian Lu glanced at the person who assigned him the task, then at Hawthorn who was talking to someone not far away, turned and left without saying anything.
Alger came over and patted the person who assigned the task, "Buck, do you think that kid can come back safely?"
Buck shrugged his shoulders, "Who knows? I found out in the past few days that his body seems to be sick, and he vomits blood every day. I don't know what disease he has. His face is as pale as a ghost. I hope God bless him , let him not even be able to subdue a few low-level devil insects."
"If that's the case, it proves that he's not the one who the great witch did the divination." Alger sneered.
The two said a few words, and then they separated to make a tent, but their eyes kept looking at the direction where Jian Lu disappeared. As long as the man hadn't returned after a magic hour, they could collect his body and accept it by the way. his legacy.
Unfortunately, after half a magic hour, Jian Lu, who had hunted ten monster worms, came back. He threw the monster worms to the others and sat aside.
The person who set up the tent opened the abdominal cavity of the ten monster insects that Jian Lu hunted back, took out a transparent pouch the size of a watermelon inside, and poured it on the wall of the sandcastle. , making the sand wall as hard as a stone, resisting the attacks of night monster insects, and it can last for three months.
Seeing it, Jian Lu felt more and more the wonder of the Lost Continent. Sure enough, every world has its own survival mode and law.
There are many people and strength, and the division of labor is clear. Soon, dinner will be ready.
Jian Lu looked at the grilled monster worm in his hand. It tasted a bit like monster meat. If he didn't know the original appearance of the meat, he would have thought it was monster meat.He took a bite, and the meat was very tender, with a peculiar aroma, which should have been added with a kind of Titian seasoning.
At this time, a person came to him and sat on the sand bench with him.
Jian Lu looked up and found that she was a magician girl, about seventeen or eighteen years old. She had a cute round face and a sweet smile. There was a light blue line from the left cheek to the corner of her mouth, which added a little bit to her. flirtatious.
"Hello, my name is Quentina." Seeing the other party looking over, the girl introduced herself a little shyly, "I saw you coughing up blood during the day, are you okay?"
Seeing the kindness in the girl's eyes, Jian Lu calmed down, "It's okay."
Quentina caught his expression and found that this person is not difficult to get along with. She couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and said in a low voice, "Do you have a bad appetite? You should eat more, or your body will not be able to support you and your condition will worsen. However, I heard that there are well-finished healing potions in the main city, you can go and have a look at that time." She paused, and said to herself: "If we can return to the main city from the magic forest safely words of the city."
Jian Lu glanced at her, did not speak, and put away the magic insect meat in his hand.
It seems that because of the opportunity of this conversation, Quentina quickly became familiar with Jian Lu. To be clear, it should be that Quentina herself is familiar with Jian Lu, and she likes to follow Jian Lu when she does things. When ordered to hunt and kill demonic insects, she also accompanied them very loyally.
However, after accompanying Jian Lu several times, Quentina realized that Jian Lu's strength was not as weak as it appeared on the outside, and his strength was higher than all of them, especially when killing the devil insects That kind of sharpness is even worse than those powerful desert hunters.
This man is full of mystery.
Quentina was originally close to Jian Lu, but she couldn't stand those people bullying him, and wanted to help him as much as she could, and it would be worth living for more than ten years.Anyway, with her level of mission in Molin, she definitely can't make it out alive, so she can live the rest of her life as she should, and it's okay to show some love.
But she didn't expect that Jian Lu just looked weak, and his strength was not weak.
Especially after they had been flying for half a month, they encountered a group of high-level demonic insects—giant scythes, and everyone fell into a bitter battle.Quintina was no exception. When she was almost cut in two by a sharp scythe, a pale hand grabbed the front of the scythe and dragged her out.
Quintina was covered in sweat and sand, her magic power was exhausted, and her breath was chaotic. She could only helplessly collapse on the ground, watching the young man standing in front of her wave her hand, and a wall of fire blocked the attack of the scythe.
She was dragged staggeringly by the young man, and fell to the ground several times. She could only watch the young man protect her and escape again and again.
Only 46 people escaped in the end.
Originally their team had 60 people.
As the weakest magician, Quintina was only a junior magician, but she managed to survive. Eight magicians died under the scythe this time, and all of them were intermediate magicians.
Everyone looked at Quintina strangely.
But even though he was in a panic at the time, someone still noticed that Quentina was able to escape successfully because Jian Lu saved him.Compared with the embarrassment of other people, this person was still methodical during his escape, and his clothes were not even wrinkled, which showed his strength and strength, and he could fight Hawthorne.
Those magicians from other cities felt a little regretful. If they knew Jian Lu's strength at first, they would not despise him because of his weak appearance, and would try to curry favor with him earlier than Quentina. Maybe he can take them away next time.
"This group of trash!" Alger gritted his teeth. If it wasn't for the people from this third-rate city, the people in their main city wouldn't have had to die so many people to protect them from fleeing. Damn it!
After entering the Demon Forest, if this group of people are still so useless, they can just die!
"Why are you angry?" Agnes said nonchalantly, "A first-class person in a third-rate city is only at this level. But that man named Gruffard, Hawthorne said it well, he is very strong, so don't go there in the future." provoke him."
Alger snorted.
Quintina sat there in a state of distress, looking at the young man who was roasting the meat of the devil insect, her eyes changed.
Jian Lu handed her a piece of roasted meat.
Some healing potions were added to the meat, and the aroma was tangy.
Quentina took it, said thank you softly, took a bite of the worm, and suddenly her nose felt sore.
Although more than a dozen people were killed or injured, they still did not stop their journey, and they still headed towards the Demon Forest the next day.
As the distance from the magic forest got closer, the desert was no longer lifeless. Jian Lu saw the grass growing on the ground. Although the color was a bit bad, it was really grass.This proved that he was close to the Demon Forest, which made him a little excited.
However, the closer they were to the demon forest, the higher the level of the demon insects, and their lethality became stronger and stronger. They even encountered the insect king. Fortunately, the insect king ignored them and let them escape successfully.However, in the next journey, people from the central main city came to meet him, and Fang arrived safely in front of the Demon Forest without any casualties.
Jian Lu jumped off the back of the flying monster, stood in front of the monster forest, and looked at the vast and boundless forest, feeling a little excited.
It's finally here.
