Chapter 360 Special Commission
"Demon Slayer."
Jason, who had just returned from outside, said as he looked at the people who were resting in the camp.
Juanlu was lying on the bed. When he heard Jason's voice, he took off his blindfold and opened one of his half-closed eyes to stare.
"What weird shit are you talking about again?"
"Hey, you're welcome. I'm calling everyone here."
Jason walked in, sat down on the stool, leaned his whole body against the back of the chair, raised his head slightly and looked at the ceiling and said.
Juanlu silently put the blindfold back on, turned over, and faced away from Jason.
As for the others, they had already turned their backs to Jason when he opened his mouth, and had no intention of paying any attention to him at all.
Seeing that the camp was so quiet and no one asked what he had just said, Jason lowered his head and saw everyone's backs.
"Don't you want to know what it means?"
quiet……
Even the sound of Pororo snoring could be heard. He did not wake up from Jason's words from beginning to end.
The quality of sleep was quite good.
Faced with such a situation, Jason's forehead was throbbing with veins. But he could only sigh helplessly as he was about to tell the story.
Simon came in from outside with some tools in his hands.
"You're back."
Jason looked at him and immediately said, "Guess what I heard people calling us outside?"
"What?" Simon asked.
"People outside call us Demon Slayers."
"Why."
Seeing Simon's cooperation, Jason finally smiled and deliberately raised his voice twice when answering.
"I heard that we got this name because we have cleared out so many demons during this period."
"I see. I thought he was going to give us some demon slayer or something like that. Sounds like it's OK."
Simon shrugged, gave a perfunctory answer, and walked past him inside.
They have already cleared out the demons in four areas, but there are still several areas where the demons have not been cleared out in time.
This is mainly because there will be fifth-stage demons patrolling these areas from time to time, which makes them dare not act too presumptuous.
The demon cleansing business was relatively low-key.
But there are so many of them, and they match each other very well.
With the cooperation of the puppet girl, the speed of clearing out these demons was extremely fast.
Especially for a small team like Xiao Gui, it has completely become a dimensionality reduction attack.
They have already divided into more puppet teams, and have even organized two teams composed entirely of puppet girls.
Use Arca's mirror to quickly escape and join the battle. For these smaller puppet girls, no matter their progress or soul integrity, the teleportation mirror will not cause much damage.
Alka only needs to be replenished every one or two days.
The puppet team is specifically responsible for cleaning out these little ghosts and patrol teams of their level.
This makes them very efficient in killing the demon's lower-level monsters.
It's like a bulldozer.
The reason why the demon race can become a cancer in the entire world is not only because of the cancer mechanism of the abyss.
Or it is because the demon races infected by the abyss, a powerful gathering place of negative energy, are monsters with both quality and quantity.
And there is no such thing as death for demons, especially the cannon fodder at the bottom. Of course, you can't expect them to have any discipline.
This resulted in them having a great advantage when launching wars, coupled with the advantage of quantity.
It is difficult to find a bottom-level combat force like the abyss in a normal world that is endless and powerful enough.
The invasion of other worlds seems very easy, and there will always be some weak worlds that are devoured alive.
However, due to the ritual and the fact that part of this area is still under the control of the flower fairy, these demons can only have a small number and quality.
Because each demon portal can only send out a limited number of demons, it is difficult to see a large number of imp-level demon units in the recently appeared portals. There are more ordinary demons and some demon centurions with strength reaching the fourth stage.
The reason they were able to clear out so many demons was not because of how long it took them.
All in all, it only took them about a month.
Mainly because they spread outward around the Land of Fragrance.
"These demons are becoming more and more difficult to deal with. Compared to those reckless fools before, they are much more orderly now." Alka, who had sat up at some point, said.
Because they have cleared out enough demons.
Alka even killed several fourth-stage demons, which were obviously able to hold certain official positions in the demon invasion.
Let these demons know how bad the environment is and start to change.
The main reason is that a large number of low-level demons at the bottom level were cleared out and replaced by more ordinary demons.
They always move in larger numbers, and from time to time you can see multiple mid-level demons moving together.
Although their hunting efficiency decreased, the efficiency of these demons in causing destruction also decreased accordingly.
Because they had to come together with more numbers and more powerful demons.
Especially the area around the circle where Alka and his companions were hunting.
Those who are a little further away naturally won’t be affected much, and they are more focused on dealing with people sent by the Church of the Two Gods.
At this moment, Lucillia, who was lying down and sleeping, suddenly sat up and opened her eyes.
"Someone is coming."
After hearing this, everyone immediately became more alert, but did not show it obviously on the outside.
"They are from the Church of Our Lady. What are they doing here?"
Lucilia, who got the exact news, said in a somewhat strange tone.
During this period of hunting, they had reached some kind of tacit understanding with the demon hunters organized by the church personnel around the front line, each of them taking care of one side.
It was sailing straight towards them, obviously something was up.
Otherwise, who would come to such a hellhole? Everyone knows that this place has become their temporary camp.
Soon the boat stopped at the port, and the church personnel on it, along with some guards and the Flower Fairy's followers, boarded their temporary camp.
"I'm looking for Alka."
The voice was slightly louder, and Alka had already packed herself up and arrived at the entrance of the camp.
The church member waved to the followers behind him, walked into their camp alone, and turned to look at the surrounding situation.
Although this camp is made up of woods and reefs, it has to be said that Alka and his friends have transformed it very well with their respective abilities.
It can be considered a small wild hotel.
This church member was none other than the temporary leader of the team from Our Lady Church that had come here with them before.
"Why are you here, Arati? Is there something wrong?"
He looked at Ala and asked, while Juanlu beside him had already brought over a few drinks and placed them in front of everyone.
Arati should be very busy on the front line now. It doesn't seem like a small matter for him to come to them in person.
Logically speaking, there are no conditions or requirements, so you should look for them.
Arati didn't beat around the bush and said to Alka and the others, "We have a mission here and would like your teammates to participate."
"What mission?" Alka asked with a little caution.
He had a bad feeling.
And he is also responsible for his crew.
“After a period of research and investigation, we have discovered the main reason why the demon portals in the rear frequently appear.
It is a combined magic circle that covers the entire Land of Spirits.
But the problem is that the area where the magic circle is carved has a power that can block outsiders from prying eyes , so we have to turn our attention to the place that provides power for the entire large magic circle."
The place that powers the magic circle? Cutting off its source? That's a good option indeed, Alka thought.
But if there is any area around here that can provide energy for the frequently activated demon magic circle.
That must be an area filled with negative energy.
Arati looked at everyone and continued, "It is obvious that you have already understood that the energy source of the magic circle is in the boundary between life and death not far away. If we want to destroy the energy source, we have to take a certain risk to sneak in.
We also need strong teammates who we trust enough to become our teammates.”
At this point, his needs are self-evident.
He just wanted to temporarily recruit Alka and the others to help solve this problem.
Once this problem is solved, the rear can finally be in a relatively safe and quiet place.
In this way, it will be easier to open up the gap on the front line and complete the war and end it.
"Going to the border between life and death?" Alka asked responsibly with a frown.
Arati nodded.
Although the source has been resolved, it is somewhat disadvantageous for Alpha and the others at this stage.
Because they made a lot of money this month by clearing out demons.
But this is just thinking from the perspective of interests without any emotion. After all, their main goal is still the treasure of the Nafas family.
Moreover, in this area, they also received a lot of help from the Flower Fairy and her people.
They also had a very good impression of the people in this area.
Personally, Alka is inclined to go, because there might be a chance to get their last Holy Grail treasure.
Once you get it, it's basically like the orange treasure in Vastwa is within reach.
They collected another treasure of the [Scepter] level.
We're going to get it anyway, so why not do it now?
Thinking of this, Alka began to ask his teammates for their opinions.
Faced with such things.
Xia Daiti and the others did not think too much about it. After simply thinking about the dangers, they all agreed.
Then Alka asked, "This energy source can't be deep down, right? That would be too dangerous."
The shallow and deep boundaries are completely different places.
At least they knew that the sixth-stage life masters had to face death because of exploring the depths.
Arati shook his head: "Of course not. Otherwise, it would be wishful thinking for these cultists to set up an energy source so easily."
Life and Death Boundary had not reached any agreement with these cultists, they simply wanted to attack on their own.
However, it is also predictable that it would be truly surprising if the cultists did not take this opportunity to launch an attack.
Since it is outside, there is no reason for them to refuse.
After a brief thought and understanding, Alka agreed.
If you have the chance, you can also get the treasure at the border.
"Okay, then we will meet at the Blue Fortress on the front line in a week." After saying that, Arati nodded, said goodbye and left.
The Azure Fortress was the island where they first landed. Due to the war, it became an island fortress. However, the name Azure was still preserved.
"Everyone, get ready. We will gather at the fortress in a week so that we can perform well. Take a rest. We will set off tomorrow."
Everyone nodded in response to Alka's words, without expressing any rejection.
The next day.
The moment daybreak came, Alka and his companions had packed up their belongings and boarded the Flying Swallow to head towards the front line of the war.
Fortunately, the front line now is not a real border like before, it is only about half of a map.
Sitting on the Flying Swallow, Alka looked at the map in his hand. The map in his hand was exactly the map of the entire Land of Spirits.
The marked Kaluto stopped at a location on the map, but he had not stayed here before.
This scumbag teleports almost everywhere and at any time. Alka has seen him appear in other places several times, and his speed is obviously wrong.
This prevented Alka from even knowing his exact location, or where he often went.
It seems that I can only deal with him after this matter is over.
Helping their side gain the advantage quickly will allow them to quickly push back on the battlefield and reveal the location of the treasure.
Let them get the treasure of the Nafas family.
Otherwise, we can only hold on like this until the flower fairy is resurrected. The closer we get to the time of the flower fairy's resurrection, the more difficult the situation around us will become.
None of the neighbors around wanted the flower fairy to revive.
Otherwise, Zehai will no longer be called Zehai.
…
They sailed very quickly, and it only took about four days before they could see the fortress in the distance.
Although it is called the Azure Fortress, the entire wall is covered with vines and black stones inside.
This makes the city wall more defensive as a whole.
Their arrival caused the flower cannons and some mechanical weapons on the city wall facing them to be aimed at them.
But the people above soon figured it out, raised their guns, and the vines in front of them moved, revealing a space leading to the inside.
Everyone walked in directly.
The moment she walked in, Julia seemed to see something and was slightly stunned.
The others followed Julia's gaze.
There were two beautiful women with different colored hair standing not far away. They seemed to have noticed Julia's gaze and turned to look at them.
Her expression changed in the same way as Julia's, and both of them just stood there.
"Do you know them both?" Alka asked from the side.
If it was an acquaintance, it would really be a coincidence.
The only possibility for Julia to meet acquaintances under such circumstances was that these two people came to the Infinite Sea many years ago.
But Julia shook her head.
"No, those two are mermaids, and they are mermaids who believe in life and receive the blessing of life."
In front of the two believers of life, Julia, who was of the same race as them but had abandoned life, appeared.
This situation made everyone immediately think of a bad situation, and they immediately adjusted their positions to block Julia behind them.
Seeing this, Julia smiled and patted the two people standing in front of her and said, "It's okay, believers in life are not driven by violence."
As soon as she finished speaking, the sisters walked straight over.
A slight hint of arrogance could be detected from them, which passed by Alka and came directly to Julia.
"An abandoned one..." A girl seemed to want to say something, but the mermaid next to her covered her mouth with a slap, signaling her friend to shut up.
Julia, who no longer believed in life and no longer followed dogma, just looked at the two of them quietly.
"Sister, why do you want to give up the faith you were born into?"
The two wanted to ask about Julia's situation. After all, mermaids are born believers in life, just like Alka on the Home Island.
Such people do not believe that life is a huge loss and must have suffered a great trauma.
Julia didn't say much, but her ring flickered slightly.
A transparent crystal with a changed shape appeared in the arms, and a corpse was placed inside.
This corpse is the remains of the mermaid that Alka and his friends found in the sea before.
I can see her face clearly through the crystal.
Since they had not been out to sea much, they had no time to go to the church of Life Church.
The body was thus kept wrapped in crystal and stored in her pocket ring.
Seeing the strange expressions of the two mermaid girls, Julia handed the crystal coffin to them.
"Are you from the Temple of Life around here?"
"Yes, we come from the Breath of Life Hall on Breeze Island."
Julia nodded and said to the crystal coffin, "Take a look at it. Does it look familiar to you?"
The two of them took a closer look and their expressions changed from panic to sadness.
“Master Meister, didn’t you expect her life journey to stop here?”
"I found her body and will now return it to you. I hope you can lead her body and soul to the Kingdom of Life."
The two nodded, gently took the crystal, expressed their thanks, and left quickly.
Apparently they were in no mood to study Julia's problem right now.
Then Julia took Alka and the others directly inside.
"Why are the members of Seed of Life coming here? Aren't they mermaids?" Jason asked curiously.
According to their understanding, people in the Land of Spirits hate mermaids, or members of the Seed of Life.
There seems to be a certain hatred between the two.
Although they don't know why.
It would seem very strange to come here at this time .
"Who knows, maybe the previous statements were just wrong, just some rumors."
"Forget it, let's go in first, and we'll know when the time comes."
Now that the members of the Seed of Life have arrived, it is self-evident what to do.
Alka said as he led everyone into a tall greenhouse, which should be the area where they gathered.
Soon two soldiers received them and took them to a resting place.
Wait for everyone to arrive.
