Volume 3: The Utopia of the Demonic City Chapter 5 Demon Hunter
Thirty minutes later, coordinate location.
"…Are you sure this is the most lively place around here?"
Looking at the crumbling building in front of him, Li Lin held the map in his hand and asked Sally, who was lying on top of his head, with some disbelief.
It's not that Li Lin didn't trust his most trusted partner, but because the thing in front of him was really a little bit, so unsatisfactory. In other words, the building in front of him looked like an unfinished honeycomb cheese that was shot with a shotgun. Li Lin observed it for a long time and couldn't even find where the main structure was.
If Li Lin had not checked the map many times (kindly provided by some devils who commit fraud and robbery) and the landmark location (kindly provided by the souls of some devils who commit fraud and robbery), he would even have thought that he had gone to the wrong place.
"The Devil's Bar... yeah, it's here, huh?"
Looking at the surrounding ruins and buzzing flies, Sally, who was lying on Li Lin's head, was also a little confused.
It's said to be the most lively devil bar in the whole city, with countless devils having parties and concerts in it every day. I had thought that since I had finally got a mission, I was planning to act weak and do a blood sacrifice or something. But now I see there's not even a living person, so how can I do a blood sacrifice?
After all, he is the referee. He can't just attack the contestants, right?
It's not that he really doesn't want to do it, but if he does, Kuwait University will revoke his teaching assistant title, which will be very troublesome. After all, this is a job transfer task, if he goes too far, he will probably be killed. Li Lin doesn't want to mess up the task because of his momentary pleasure. The most important thing for a player is the task and the main storyline, and everything else is secondary.
"…Huh?"
Just when Li Lin was flipping through the map for the third time, wondering if he had taken the wrong path, a slight exclamation suddenly came from Sally's spirit.
Before he could ask, the messy ruins in front of him rolled up like boiling water, and then made a terrifying roar, and exploded to the left and right. High temperature and extremely lethal metal heat flow splashed directly towards Li Lin.
Li Lin didn't even blink as he watched the beautiful and dangerous scene. An invisible barrier suddenly rose up around him. The power of the Demon of Love silently penetrated into reality, swallowing all the attacks on Li Lin into a layer of nothingness. When the attacks dissipated, except for the area behind Li Lin that spread into a fan-shaped area and remained safe, all other places were wrapped in a layer of dark red flames.
And what flew up with the explosion was not just building debris, but also some other things.
There was a muffled bang, and a heart-pounding tremor came from underground. Then a red body wrapped in countless flames rose up and rushed into the sky.
"oh……"
Li Lin, who was standing in place with a map in his hand, looked up at the devil's mighty and huge body drawing an arc, and then fiercely crashed into the building behind him, creating a pile of debris. He began to understand why this place was full of ruins.
It turns out that this guy was beaten out by someone.
Looking at the ruins covered with smoke and flames with great interest, Li Lin was actually looking forward to seeing who had destroyed this place.
Within a few seconds, the collapsed ruins began to roll again, steaming bubbles of building materials like boiling water, and then with a sharp whistle, all the wreckage was blasted into the sky.
"……woman?"
Looking at the slender figure who kicked open the ruins with unparalleled domineering power, Li Lin raised his eyebrows in surprise.
"What's wrong with the woman?"
Is it strange for outsiders that a woman can do this?
Along with the woman's impatient voice, a strong storm burst out from the spot, sweeping away the surrounding smoke.
A woman with long black hair and a scar on the corner of her eye, holding a cigarette and looking impatient, walked out of the ruins . Her red pupils seemed to be burning with flames, igniting countless flames wherever she could see.
"Don't worry about it, it's just a normal armed demand for wages."
The beautiful and dangerous woman waved her hand, put her hands in her pockets, walked to the demon with white eyes and squatted down. Then, as if by magic, she took out a silver knife out of thin air and cut open the armor on the demon's body.
That temperament , that irritable look on her face, and the hasty yet quick movements. Li Lin looked at her figure and inexplicably felt very familiar.
How should I put it? It's as if poverty is written all over this person.
"I think you're thinking bad things."
"……Who are you?"
Li Lin did not directly answer the woman's sharp question, but asked back:
"I remember this was supposed to be the Devil's Bar. Why are you the only one left here? Where are the others?"
"They are all dead."
The woman said without turning her head:
"I beat them all to death. Their bodies either evaporated or disappeared."
"Um?"
"You want me to watch the store but you don't pay me, and you also want to have sex with me. You said that the competition has started and there are many dangerous people. Fuck me. Are there more dangerous people than those who don't pay? I've seen a lot. I have more than 20 years of experience as a demon hunter, okay?"
“Are there many people who don’t pay?”
"A lot? Don't be ridiculous. I've been running a shop here for ten years, and I've only met fourteen people who paid honestly."
The woman who was squatting on the ground and searching her pockets spat and said angrily.
"The people living in this city are all gangsters, bastards, and bastards. I thought I could make money here, but all I made was from the bodies of the people I killed. Sometimes I even had to pay for repairs. Do you know how hard my life is?"
"Yeah, I guess I know."
This place is indeed one of the most lively places.
At least it used to be.
Looking around at the piles of ruins, the lingering smoke and the faintly wailing souls, Li Lin shrugged.
"So you don't have any missions now? Can you do me a favor? I'll pay you."
"…What can I do for you?"
Let me make it clear in advance that I won’t do anything too weird.
Seeing the hard currency in Li Lin's hand, the facial lines of the woman who was dismembering the body softened, revealing a businesslike expression.
" It's okay, it's a simple thing."
It's really simple.
Wearing a hood, Li Lin showed a calm and peaceful smile like a crescent moon .
"You just need to tell me the locations of all the capable people and banks in this city ... I want the real locations, not those crappy places that just about anyone knows about."
