Chapter 874 The old-fashioned unfolding
"Wow——!"
Among the ruins, a boy in rags collapsed. He stared at the servo skull in front of him in horror, picked up the stone at hand, and threw it at it desperately.
For this level of "attack", the Servo Skull didn't pay attention at all. It just shook a little to avoid this completely inaccurate stone attack.
But this made the boy even more angry. His anger even surpassed his fear, driving the boy to be full of strength again.
"You...you actually look down on me, I'm just a mere demon...!"
Roaring angrily, the boy stood up, grabbed a branch, and glared fiercely at the servo skull.
"Come, kill me. Even if you kill me, I will not surrender to monsters like you!"
Although his legs were shaking, the boy still stood up with a fierce glare and stared at the servo skull.
And at this moment, darkness suddenly fell.
"Is this the kid?"
"Huh?"
Hearing the voice coming from behind, the boy was stunned for a moment, and then he turned his head. Then the boy saw that behind him, a terrifying existence as tall as a mountain, wearing dark steel armor, was standing there, as if A giant bear looked down at him. And in the strange skull eye socket, a scarlet light flashed...
"Aaaahhhhhh!!"
At this moment, the courage that the boy had finally mustered up disappeared in an instant. Just being stared at by that red gaze made him feel as if he was about to fall into an abyss of fear and crisis!
"Really, big brother, you'd better leave it to me at this time!"
Just when the boy's mind was about to go blank, a clear and sweet voice suddenly sounded. When he heard this voice, the boy was like a drowning person grabbing the safety rope that was thrown down, and his mind regained consciousness. Then, the boy saw a beautiful and lovely girl who seemed to be shining with light appeared in front of him.
"Hello, can you understand me? Um...can this translator really work?"
As she spoke, the girl stretched out her hand and tapped her wrist, then looked at the boy again.
"Ah, hey? This, what is this...?"
Perhaps he was so surprised that the boy didn't know how to react for a while.
"Ah, you don't have to worry about him. Big brother only looks fierce on the surface, but he is actually a good person..."
Having said this, Zhen Ji Ling paused for a moment.
"So, can you tell us, what's going on here?"
Under Zhen Ji Ling's comfort, the originally panicked boy finally calmed down and told Duan Muhuai and the others what happened here.
Just as Duanmuhuai thought, this place was attacked.
Demonic attack.
To put it simply, it is an old trick used by demon kings and demons to try to destroy humans and rule the world. Because the demons were very powerful and could fly in the sky, humans were no match for them and were beaten back steadily. Of course, many brave men went to the north to try to defeat the Demon King, but unfortunately, almost none of those brave men came back.
"Demons..."
After listening to the description, Duanmu Huai thought about it. According to the boy's description, the demons looked similar to humans, except that they had horns. Well, they sounded very similar to those dragon people of Gu Leiya.
However, there are some differences in description.
Duanmuhuai touched his chin and began to think.
In fact, many similar RPG games and missions have similar backgrounds.
For example, "Since the beginning of heaven and earth, the battle between gods and demons has never stopped..."
Or "Gods, humans, and demons were created in this world, and the three races are constantly fighting each other..."
This is generally the background.
But the boy told a completely different story.
According to him, in the ancient times, one day, monsters called demons suddenly appeared, and then began a long struggle with humans.
What is this? A genetically mutated Godzilla who drank nuclear wastewater?
Moreover, I still don’t know what the demons in this world look like...
So Duanmu Huai made a decision.
"Anyway, let's kill the Demon King first."
"Hey? Are you sure you want to do this? Big brother?"
It has to be said that Zhenji Ling was also surprised when he heard Duanmu Huai's decision.
"Of course, since the demons are trying to eliminate humans, they are naturally the enemies of the Tribunal. In addition, according to my experience, this kind of abnormal enchantment is generally related to the demon king. Maybe after killing the demon king, we will I can contact other people. All in all, it’s good to find a target and then go for it.”
As he spoke, Duanmuhuai stood up and stretched.
"All in all, it's been decided. The Demon King's Castle is in the north, so let's go north. I hope it's not too far."
"Then...what should we do with that child?"
As he spoke, Zhen Ji Ling looked at the boy standing not far away, watching them uneasily.
"Just find a nearby village and leave him there." Duanmuhuai just looked at the other party and then withdrew his gaze.
"Okay, let's go."
There was only one road. On Duanmu Huai's shoulders sat Zhen Ji Ling and Oji Si, while the boy gritted his teeth and followed them, neither far nor near.
Duanmu Huai's speed was not slow. It would be difficult for an average adult to keep up, let alone a child. But even so, he still gritted his teeth and followed Duanmu Huai, as if he didn't give up. Duanmu Huai turned a blind eye to this. He just walked forward and then found a place to rest. Of course, the child was also hiding next to their camp during the rest, watching them carefully.
Although Zhen Ji Ling would give the child water and food, he would not take it immediately. Instead, he would carefully pick up the food and eat it after Zhen Ji Ling returned to Duan Mu Huai.
"Just like a puppy."
"Puppy?"
"Yes, it's like a stray dog on the street, cautiously wary of other people... But you also have to be careful. If you don't plan to adopt, it's better not to get too close, so as not to give it the wrong impression. It would be bad if it wags its tail and clings to you.”
For Duanmu Huai, this is just a small piece of advice.
"According to the child, there should be a village not far ahead. We should be able to reach it before dark. Let's just put him there."
I have to say that Duanmuhuai's luck is very good this time.
Just as he said, they arrived at the small village next to the woods before dark.
Of course, if there is any problem, it is...
"Good guy, it seems I came at the right time."
Looking at the raging fire in front of him, Duanmu Huai clenched his war hammer. In the light of the fire, people's cries, screams, and the roars of wild beasts could be heard.
Under the night, amid the shining firelight, dark, wolf-like monsters with horns were hunting humans in groups. The latter could only scream and run away at this moment, trying to instinctively extend his life for some time.
This is just the most instinctive survival of life.
Several men who looked like guards were holding long swords to protect their families and confront the monsters. They were covered in blood and gasping for breath. Behind them were women and children holding their children tightly.
They are playing with their prey.
The guards knew very well that they were no match for these monsters. If they swarmed them, they and others would have died long ago. But they didn't do that. They just surrounded themselves and others, launching attacks again and again, slowly tormenting them, waiting for their own destruction.
And all this is…………
The guard clenched his sword, gritted his teeth, and looked up. Not far behind those monsters, a man dressed luxuriously and dressed like a nobleman was standing there. He held a dog whistle in his right hand and looked at them with a smile, as if he was enjoying a drama. of the audience.
"Damn demons......"
The guard wanted to rush over and cut his throat immediately, but he couldn't do that because just now, the last person who wanted to cut the demon's throat had been completely devoured by those monsters in front of them. .
"Go on, why don't you scream?"
The demon man looked at the guards in front of him and the people behind them with a smile, and spread his hands.
"Let me hear the screams of mankind again, let me hear your screams when you face death."
"I won't let you succeed, monster!"
"Oh?"
Facing the guard's roar, the demon man chuckled, and then put the dog whistle into his mouth.
"In that case, I'll let you scream."
"————————!"
A sharp whistle sounded, and the next moment those monsters opened their mouths, jumped up, and rushed towards the guards again!
"Go to hell————!"
At this moment, facing the mouth full of stench that was attacking him, the guard no longer hesitated. He raised his sword high and rushed towards the enemy in front of him with a feeling of sharing the same fate!
"Hoo——!"
Just then, a whirlwind broke out.
The whistling and rotating war hammer turned into a strong wind and rushed into the battlefield. The next moment, I saw those monsters being smashed into pulp by the rotating war hammer. Their hard and invulnerable bodies became as fragile as porcelain in front of the shining thunder war hammer. It was all wiped out in a matter of seconds.
"Boom!"
At the same time, a huge black shadow fell from the sky and landed in front of the guards.
"This is the demon clan."
Duanmuhuai stretched out his hand, grabbed the war hammer again, looked at the man with a solemn expression in front of him, and opened his mouth with a ferocious smile.
"What a nostalgic warp stench... I think I know what you are."
As he spoke, Duanmu Huai raised his war hammer.
"Prepare to die."
