Every day I'm on the verge of death

Chapter 22 Sleeping Beauty 8

They managed to find the princess. A group of people were in a very spacious room, surrounded by the sleeping princess on the bed, feeling a little melancholy.

Seeing the princess sleeping so soundly, they couldn't bear to wake her up... what a ghost!

They couldn't find the so-called prince to kiss and wake up the princess at all, and no so-called prince has appeared until now. Even in the king's opinion, all their players were invited to wake up the princess from the beginning.

"Old wind, why don't you try it?"

Lu Jifeng kicked He Tong: "Why don't you try it."

He Tong shrank back, his first kiss was for his daughter-in-law. Although this princess is beautiful, she is not his daughter-in-law, so she cannot kiss her!

Tang Wuyin glared at Lu Jifeng because of He Tong's words, and Lu Jifeng, who was stared innocently, walked to Tang Wuyin's side and patted his head comfortingly.

"I don't think it's that simple. If we players can wake up the princess with a kiss, it may be too simple for us. The game should not allow such a simple clearance."

Lu Jifeng looked at the battle situation outside the castle, the patrol army that was still attacking seemed to have the intention to retreat, it was almost dawn...

"Also, if the person who can kiss and wake up the princess is among our players, but unfortunately that player dies, then the princess will not be able to wake up, and the mission will be deadlocked, so the possibility of the 'prince' among us is very low."

Finally, Lu Jifeng pointed to the outside of the castle: "There is another problem. It is almost dawn. The witch seems to be coming back. We don't know which room she will go to when she comes back, but the room where the princess is should be the most likely place. "

Standing behind He Tong without saying a word, he suddenly said, "Witches don't hurt people."

"How did you know?"

Lu Jifeng frowned and looked at the balance. The balance, which had always been irrelevant, suddenly opened his mouth to defend the witch. It was not that Lu Jifeng suspected the balance, but that his performance was too abrupt.

"While I was waiting, the witch came to see me. She gave me food. She is a good person." In the perception of balance, as long as he is good to him, he is a good person.

Lu Jifeng subconsciously used what he knew to refute the words of weighing.

"No, if witches don't hurt people, what about the monsters in this castle? The whole castle is under the control of witches. It's impossible for witches not to know the existence of these monsters. Now that they know..."

"Since I know, why didn't I come to save you? Why did I raise these monsters that kill and eat people?"

Seeing the witch who suddenly walked in from the door, Lu Jifeng and Tang Wuyin were on guard quietly.

The witch made a standard meeting salute to them: "Sorry for scaring you, I am the witch Lolisa."

In everyone's perception, the witch who put Sleeping Beauty to sleep is evil, so they subconsciously guard against and distrust her.

"This castle is not controlled by me, and those monsters are not raised by me. I need to maintain the vines that cover the entire castle, so I have no spare power to control the monsters controlled by demons. The room is well protected and her safety is guaranteed."

After finishing speaking, Lolisa walked to the bed, looked at the sleeping princess, then turned around and continued to talk to them: "The chosen warriors, I have been waiting for you for a long time, and I need your help."

"Miss Witch, we are not chosen warriors, but 'princes' invited by the king to awaken the princess for him."

Although Lu Jifeng knew that the king's words could not be trusted, but the witch's words may not be true either.

Lolisa smiled: "It was never the 'prince' who woke up the princess."

"So we were misled by you and the king from the beginning. It was not the prince who woke up the princess but the kiss of true love."

Lu Jifeng's words are not doubts, but affirmations.It's a vicious game. If they avoid the witch directly, they may never receive the real mission.

Lolisa didn't answer Lu Jifeng's words, but started to tell them the reason of the story.

"The king wanted to rule the world, so he offered his favorite princess, Yinsha, to the demon. The summoned demon was very satisfied with Yinsha, and it agreed to help the king rule the world. But Yinsha refused the king. This impertinent request, Silver Sand's refusal, hinders the king's plans to rule the world."

"After learning that Yinsha and I were in love and couldn't separate us, the king was going to sacrifice the princess to the devil forcibly. It was a night a year ago, when I was away, Yinsha was taken away Forcibly offering sacrifices. When I arrived, the ceremony was halfway through. The demon was too powerful. With my ability, even if it was performing a ceremony at that time, I couldn't defeat it. In the end, I had to seal it in Yinsha's body and let it go. The princess is asleep."

After Lolisa finished speaking, she seemed a little tired. She sat by the bed and looked at the princess with a sad face.

"I have been waiting for someone who can help me and Yinsha, so I said that the princess needs to be awakened by the prince's true love kiss, so that the king can find someone to enter the castle."

"And I have been waiting for someone who can get here smoothly, and now I have waited for you. Then, my dear warriors, are you willing to help me and Yinsha?"

Lu Jifeng sneered: "You can clean up the monsters in the castle, but you chose to keep the monsters. This is just to make a selection for us so-called warriors without doing it yourself. Even through the castle covered with vines Access to the castle from the outside is also part of the selection."

After he finished speaking, he looked at the witch without hesitation.

"Because your ultimate goal is to kill demons, and if you can't even defeat these monsters after entering the castle, then even entering the castle can't help you at all. Such a person is useless to you , you don't need those useless warriors."

The surprise flashed across the witch's face, although it was not obvious, it was still caught by Lu Jifeng. The NPCs in this world are too cunning, whether it is the king or the current witch, they are all the same, they didn't tell them anything but wanted them Go work for them.

"We can help you, but I have a request."

Lolisa didn't speak, she seemed to be thinking about it, and after a moment she said, "If you can represent all of you, then I can accommodate your request."

Tang Wuyin and He Tong had no objections, and of course the others had no objections.

"Please tell us completely what your purpose is, or what you want us to do."

"You're right. I really want to kill demons, but the ultimate goal is to prevent the king from ruling the world. This is also Yinsha's wish."

A demon that even witches cannot defeat, the possibility of them killing it is very low. Lu Jifeng glanced at the princess lying on the bed. The sealed demon can also control monsters to attack the castle. One can imagine its ability in its heyday Only stronger.

Generally speaking, there is more than one way to clear the game, whether it is by intelligence or violence, there is a way to clear the level, so there should be a shortcut for this seemingly impossible task.

Or it would be easier for them to follow the king's mission line, such as awakening the princess, releasing the demon, and letting the king rule the world.

No... Letting the king rule the world is not something that can happen overnight. Lu Jifeng frowned and looked at the witch. No matter which task line it is, it seems that it is not easy to complete.

"What do you want us to do? What is the way to kill the demon."

"When the king summons the devil, he will get the name of the devil. Sealing the name of the devil can weaken the strength of the devil by half."

The name of a demon is usually bestowed by a higher level demon, and the grantee will receive part of the magic power from the giver. If the name is withdrawn or sealed, the magic power inherited from the giver will also be withdrawn.

……

They came back from the old castle and sat at the long table again. It was already noon at this time. The chef who thought he would not appear appeared 10 minutes after they sat down. Behind him were still a dozen waiters carrying food.

Lu Jifeng always felt that the one who cared most about them in this castle was not the king but the chef who often forced them to eat strange things.

"Gentlemen and ladies, everyone must have had a good time, so now everyone can enjoy the delicious food."

This time it was a normal dish, and the chef didn't say anything like piglets last time.

During the meal, the chef stayed by the side all the time, and they couldn't get useful information about the name of the demon for the time being. The only thing that was certain was that the king must know the relevant clues.

Among all the npcs they come into contact with at present, only the chef will communicate with them about the princess, so Lu Jifeng chose to ask him: "Mr. Chef, do you know when His Majesty the King is free recently?"

"Oh, my dear sir, His Majesty the King is very worried about you because you did not return after going out yesterday, so I will have dinner with all of you here tonight."

After the chef finished speaking, he didn't say anything else. After the meal, everyone went back to their rooms and waited for the night to come.

……

Sure enough, in the evening, as soon as they sat down at the long table, the king came.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I heard that you went to the old castle in the forest. Have you seen my lovely daughter?"

"Your Majesty, we have met your daughter. She asked us to tell you, give us her name, and we will bring it to her."

After Tang Wuji finished speaking, he glanced at Lu Jifeng. This is what he had discussed with Lu Jifeng during the day. How to make the king believe them and give them the name of the devil? They have made many plans, but this is the only one of them. , It is not necessary for the king to trust them.

They only need to let the king know that the current princess has been replaced by a demon, and that she needs a name to exert her full strength to defeat the witch who sealed her away, that's enough.

In order to rule the world, the king will definitely try his best to get the devil out of the witch's hands, including handing over the name used to control the devil.

The king seemed to be thinking, Tang Wuyin continued.

"Her Royal Highness also said that her power is completely suppressed during the day, and she can only breathe a little at night, but even so, she still can't defeat a witch in her prime."

Lu Jifeng looked at the king who had obviously wavered, and continued with Tang Wuyin's words.

"She has one last sentence for you. She said that she is still working hard for your dream. I hope you will always remember the agreement between you."
