Instead, I can collect illustrations in this era of demon wars...

"How about that demon god named Beverance?"

The answer to this question doesn't need to be answered by Xi'er, it can be seen from her expression - it's not very good.

"His strength is much stronger than Lord Heulia's. With his protection, the safety of Bi'an Village has improved a lot, but..."

Hillary said in a low voice.

"That Beverance... seems to have some special hobbies."

Chapter 2 Beverance's X Fetish

"Devil God's Lover" is the brand imprinted in the hearts of all demon gods in this world.

Even so, the way each demon expresses the [love] in his heart, as well as the understanding of [love], are different.

One of the pillars of the wind god, the demon god of the gale, the lonely king of the tower, Dekarapian, stands on the tower and looks down on all living beings, thinking that he loves the people deeply, but his actions are nothing more than a tyrant. Towers drop, but that's what it thinks love is.

And the running wolf of the cold wind, the north wind wolf king Andreus, as one of the pillars of the gods, also bears the responsibility of a lover, but it only leaves its love to the homeless and abandoned babies.

...So, if a demon god has some unique hobbies, it's not incomprehensible.

"Ah, Mr. Chen Luo, we are here."

Xier originally wanted to say something, because she was near the village.Still chose to remain silent.

Although the village in front of him still had some smoky atmosphere, it also looked a little desolate. Chen Luo had a rough perception that the people who stayed here were old, weak, sick and disabled.

"Anyway... Mr. Chen Luo, there is still a spare room in my place. I'll go back and talk to grandma, and she will agree."

As Xi'er said, she came to the door and knocked lightly twice.

"Girl, are you back?"

An old woman's voice came from inside the house.

"Well, grandma, I'm back and picked some fruit."

While Xi'er replied, she led Chen Luo into the house.

"Yo, girl, you brought someone back from outside?"

Only then did the old woman see another big man coming in after her.

"Well, grandma, I picked him up at the top of the mountain and fell from the sky. Seeing that he was homeless, I brought him back."

Seele explained to the old woman.

"Fall from the sky, isn't that the same as you?"

"No...that's right..."

Xier said with a wry smile.

"Do you want to live here forever?"

"Well... it should last for a while."

Hill said.

"One more person means one more mouth, but at least he is a man who can work in the fields."

The old woman looked at Chen Luo.

"What's your name, boy?"

"Grandma, hello, my name is Chen Luo."

Chen Luo replied politely.

"Chen Luo... looks pretty solid."

The old woman nodded.

"You and the girl have similar hair colors, like brother and sister. I'll get you something to eat."

She turned back into the kitchen.

"But this girl is also strange. She hasn't grown tall after several years of raising her. She is obviously at the age of growing up."

The old woman complained while taking out some coarse grains from the kitchen.

"Ahaha...Actually, I don't really know why..."

Xier said a little embarrassed.

After experiencing the X-10 experiment, Xier's body has become a pure quantum state existence, and in a sense, she has surpassed human beings, and naturally she can no longer grow up like an ordinary human girl.

"I've been like this since Lord Heulia was here."

"Heulia... girl, you still call her an adult?"

The old woman said angrily.

"If she hadn't abandoned us, how could the village be what it is now?"

"Uh……"

Xier didn't know what to say for a moment.

"Grandma, what happened after this village was taken over by Beverance?"

Chen Luo realized that this was a good opportunity to understand the situation, and asked the old woman.

"...Let me tell the story."

After hesitating for a moment, Xier took the initiative to speak.

"Bifrons, the demon god, has a special hobby, that is, he likes... dead things."

"?"

Chen Luo made a puzzled question mark.

"To be precise, his hobby is to refine dolls from the dead..."

Hill explained.

Following Xi'er's explanation, Chen Luo probably understood what kind of demon god Beverance was.

... To simply use three words to describe it, it is poetry obsession.

Obsessed with love for the dead, he has but one claim to the land he shelters.

Every once in a while, his family members will patrol the territory to collect offerings for Beverance. The offerings are neither food nor human sacrifices, but various poems.

Although this demon god's hobby is very special, but in this era of wars between demon gods and wars, this offering is not difficult to collect.

Therefore, Bi'an Village lived a stable life for the time being.

The real problem does not lie with the demon god himself, but with...his special hobbies and his dependents.

The research on the dead is subtly changing the natural environment in his territory, making it less suitable for living beings. This is one of them.

And his dependents are the real trouble.

"To become a follower of Beverance, there is only one condition - to offer him enough tribute."

Becoming his family member, you can get a gift from the demon god and get a part of the divine power.The more you contribute, the more you get.

As long as there are enough tributes, Beverance doesn't care about anything other than that.

And some people... in order to gain more power, they used their brains.

"His family coerced you to collect tribute?"

Chen Luo asked.

"Well, if they can't, they will use the power bestowed by the demon god to corrupt the land and make it even more uninhabitable."

This is a vicious circle. The people in this village are old, weak, sick and disabled. Except for Xi'er, other people are basically unable to find tributes—unless they become tributes themselves.

The number of a village can be regarded as a big offering, but those people dare not use direct means to create dead people, they can only use this obvious method of boiling frogs in warm water.

"Xie'er used to be able to hunt and kill some wild beasts and monsters nearby to make business, but recently it's hard to find them anymore."

I'm afraid it's because the aura of the living here is decreasing, and the monsters don't want to patronize them anymore.

"So Xi'er, you brought me back because you actually wanted to..."

Pull people into the group and work together.

"Hmm... well, because Xi'er is really difficult to deal with alone, so..."

Hillary said in a low voice.

"If...if Mr. Chen Luo is not willing, Xi'er can send you out, as long as those family members don't see you..."

"It's not that I don't want to, but there may be a simpler and more rude solution once and for all."

Chen Luo pondered.

"A better solution would be..."

Xi'er was about to say something, but there were noisy voices and a certain powerful aura from outside the village.

This made Xier's face change, and she said in a panic.

"It's Beverance's family members who are here, but... how come so fast? They only came a few days ago."

Chapter 3 Negotiation

If there is something good on the top, it will be great on the bottom.

This is a truth that has remained unchanged for thousands of years, and it is the same between the demon god and his dependents.What's more, from Xier's description, it can be heard that this so-called Beverance is the type who can exchange rewards and power as long as he offers sacrifices.

In such a dangerous age as the Demon God War... it is inevitable that some people will try to get more benefits from this Demon God.

"...Is this how Wuwangpo's lifelessness came about later?"

Although it is said in the records of "Jianyun Wenji" that the young people of Wuwangpo were tempted by the whale song of distant sea monsters, followed illusory promises and naive dreams and plunged into the calm water of the Bishui River, causing Wuwangpo The old people of Poe finally died one by one and became a ghost village, but maybe the real fact is not the case.

The demon god related to death and undead resides here, and its aura eventually causes the aura of death to be imprinted on the ground veins here... Maybe there is such a possibility.

The family members who came outside the village seemed to be shouting something outside, Xi'er bit her lip, glanced at Chen Luo, and said softly.

"I...I'll go out to deal with them, Mr. Chen Luo, you hide in grandma's room, don't go out."

Then, she opened the door of the room and walked to the middle of the village.

Chen Luo leaned against the bed for now, watching the scene outside the window.

I saw a dark figure standing there in the center of the desolate village. His whole body was covered in a pitch-black hood and it was difficult to see clearly.Beside him stood two huge monsters—of course, they were not alive.

The aura of those two monsters was pretty good. If Chen Luo were to rate it at the level of the Honkai Beast, it would be about half the level of an ordinary emperor-level Honkai Beast.

Chen Luo could feel a little demon god's aura from this dark family member, probably the ability to control these two dead creatures was the authority he got.

Chen Luo opened the window a little, and although they were far away, the gently blowing wind had already brought the conversation between Xi'er and him.

"...Didn't it be agreed to pay the offering once a month? The last offering was obviously only handed in three or four days ago."

Although a little nervous, Xier still mustered up the courage to ask.

"The last offering, the corpses of fourteen monsters, have indeed been received."

A dark and dry voice came from under the pitch-black hood.

"However, Lord Beverance's collection needs more materials. A mere fourteen monsters... still can't satisfy Lord Beverance's desire for collection."

"...There are not many monsters and beasts wandering around here anymore. If you really want to, give me some more time, and I will go further away..."

Xier said hurriedly.

"Don't be so troublesome, Miss Seele."

The dark family member said leisurely, as if everything was under control.

"There is no need to take the risk of hunting any wild beasts. Isn't there a very suitable tribute in this village?"

"...No one has been in our village for a long time."

Seele is not good at lying, this is a lie that is too easy to see through.
