That night, Bi Qing returned to Fair City and told the king about the situation. After hearing the news, the king looked a little excited, but immediately became worried. He stood up from his seat, touched his chin and said: "More than ten people."
Days of time, if I talk about my distrust of the Demon King, I still feel that ten days is a long time, but now that the county city has been captured, I feel as if it happened in the blink of an eye, and I am in conflict with the county city every year.
It happens frequently, and no one wants a war to cause civilians to suffer, not to mention that it is inevitable that both sides will suffer losses. Now that I heard that the county town was captured and put under the name of our city-state of Fair City, I am very happy,
But I’m also worried!”
Bi Qing looked at the king and asked, "Is your Majesty worried about the 20,000 gold the Demon King wants?"
"That's not the case." The king raised his hand to show that Bi Qing was wrong. "As you said before, the city in the county is my city. Why worry about not being able to get the 20,000 gold? Now I'm worried that the demon king will stay and leave."
, and even want more, we have the same military strength as the county city, in other words, it is impossible to compete with the Demon King!"
From the perspective of an employee, Bi Qing analyzed: "Your Majesty, don't worry for now. Let's go to the county town first and arrange the military power there. Then we'll see if the Demon King has any other requests. Furthermore, in the future,
Judging from his strength and actions, I don’t think he would choose to stay. If it was for the sake of the city-state, why would he let us take over the power? Wouldn’t it be better for him to directly become the king of the county city? He can capture the county city.
I'm afraid that in his eyes, the position of king of the city-state is not what he wants. Your Majesty... Why don't I accompany you to the county town tomorrow? It's better to get this matter over with as early as possible."
"There are so many dreams in the long night," the king sighed, "Biqing... As you wish, we will go to the county town tomorrow."
······
In the night sky, a pot of crescent moon illuminates the scenery under the sky. Among the continuous mountains, three nearly connected mountains stand between the sky and the earth. And where the three nearly connected mountains are, there is a huge natural cave.
Standing on the ground, you can see a lot of red crystals growing in the crypt. At night, under the moonlight, they appear crystal clear and emit some dazzling light.
Not far away from the three high mountains, a group of people and horses were moving, and a voice came from the voice: "Your Highness Princess... We can't get out of the mountains and reach the town tonight. It's better to sleep here overnight and continue tomorrow."
Let’s set off.”
Suddenly there was a voice like a silver bell, and he said displeasedly: "You, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you said you can see the town through the mountains, now? Look where is this? Besides mountains, it's still mountains,
The view is still blocked by these trees. You said, tell me, where is the town? No, I can tell you, I have to find a town tonight. I can't stand sleeping in the wild. Listen to me.
"..." A girl with a playful appearance turned her head as if she was listening to something, and then said to the person she was blaming: "There are sounds from monsters everywhere, how dare you let me sleep here, huh~"
If something happens to me, your lives will be in danger." The girl said, still looking blaming, waving her hands and pointing at the eleven soldiers in military uniforms in front of her.
The eleven military uniforms in front of the girl are wearing military uniforms. If you understand the military uniforms, you will know that these are military uniforms worn only by demons. They are hard armor and have slightly long devil horns protruding from the shoulder armor.
Even the helmet he was wearing had devil horns.
The officer standing at the front said aggrievedly: "Your Highness Princess... I also judged based on my own memory. I am very sure that there are city-states after passing the mountains, but I didn't expect that the landforms of the mountains would be so vast. Please ask me."
Your Highness, please forgive me, we have been traveling for a day, and I am worried that Your Highness will be tired, so I want to sleep here. If Her Highness decides to go to the city-state to rest, then we must protect Her safety."
"Hmph..." The girl who was called the princess raised her hands above her head and spread out her five fingers, with a spirited look on her face. "I am a princess of the demon clan. How can this short distance make me fall down from exhaustion? Besides,
Although our demon clan's night vision is not as good as that of the vampire clan, it is not bad at all. Captain...continue to set off, yo-ho~" The girl stepped forward excitedly and continued walking forward.
The girl's moving route was heading towards the caves under the three high mountains. As she looked around, she noticed the bright light in front of her. "What is that light in front of me?" Curiosity made the girl continue to move forward and follow her words.
Li said happily: "What a beautiful light, where did it come from?" As he spoke, his pace became much faster.
When the captain behind him saw this, he hurriedly shouted: "Your Highness, please wait for us." He waved to his subordinates and chased after him.
The captain, who had just chased for a while, saw the girl in front of him stop, and the red light in front of his eyes was even more dazzling than before. "Wow~~~" The girl sighed: "So beautiful, I am still the first
This is the first time I’ve seen such a beautiful crystal.”
The captain stepped forward, as if he was standing on the edge of a cliff. In front of him was a relatively deep cave. The diameter of the cave was probably a hundred meters wide, and there were some red crystals attached to the rock wall.
, under the illumination of the moonlight, even the crystals in the crypt are emitting flames.
Other soldiers caught up and saw the spectacle before them.
"I changed my mind," the girl said excitedly, "We will stay in this cave for one night today."
The tenth captain was also shocked by the scene in front of him, nodded and said: "I will obey the orders of Her Highness the Princess."
Dust was raised on the rock wall, and a group of people slid down the rock wall and came to the bottom of the cave. The red crystals around them became larger. The crystals grew naturally from the cave, and the moonlight illuminated them.
, to make the crystal clear. When the girl passed the crystal, she found that the transparent crystal was like looking in a mirror, and her whole face was reflected in the crystal. The girl stroked the surface of the crystal with her hands, and the slight coolness made the girl feel very comfortable.
"What are these things?" The captain was also touching the crystal on the side. Suddenly there was a resonance of the crystal in his mind, and his fingers were suddenly submerged in the crystal. A sudden surprise made the captain hurriedly pull his hand away.
At this time, the girl also discovered this phenomenon, and her curiosity prompted her to try it again, and her fingers stuck in the crystal did not feel any pain.
The captain with more experience seemed to understand this principle. He looked at his fingers disappearing into the crystal, then stretched his arm in and moved his arm around. He could still feel the sensation of his arm. "I understand, this kind of
There is probably another independent space in the crystal. When touching it, you can enter the space by resonating with it. Perhaps this space can also be used to store some things."
"It's amazing." The girl also moved her arms. "If I can get some back, my father will be very happy."
"The princess has a good idea." The ten-captain also had the same idea. "How about we get some back. Even if Her Highness the Princess cannot find the slave, the Demon King will not blame Her Highness the Princess for sneaking out."
"That's it." The girl excitedly pulled her arm away from the crystal, ready to do it.
"Ah~~~~~" But at this moment, a shrill scream came from the distance.
"What's the matter?" The captain turned his head and looked. A group of people hurriedly ran to check the situation. After running for a while in the crypt, a huge smooth flat red crystal appeared in front of them, and the person who screamed was
, it was his subordinate, and the screaming subordinate fell to the ground and lost an arm, and blood began to flow to the ground.
"What exactly is going on?" The captain looked at the broken arm of his subordinate. There was no danger around him, but why did his subordinate have a broken arm? The captain quickly ran up to help his subordinate and asked: "What happened?"
What happened? Who cut off your arm..." At this point, the captain's heart trembled violently. No, it was not cut off. His eyes swayed to look at the broken arm of his subordinates, and the mess at the crack.
The incision couldn't have been caused by a sharp weapon. Could there be a monster? The captain looked around in panic.
"Save him quickly," the girl shouted, but at this moment, a heavy footsteps came, and this heavy footsteps came from behind the captain of ten. Everyone looked over in horror, only to
From the huge flat crystal, a thick animal foot stretched out from inside and stepped on the ground.
Seeing that the calf of this foot was one meter high, the captain did not dare to have hope. He immediately looked at his subordinates and shouted, "Take the princess away quickly~"
