Devil's Journey

Chapter 56 Invincible in the world
After making up his mind, the team of thousands of people moved quickly. When the crusade army arrived at Julian's lair, the small valley that hadn't been named, it was naturally empty.

However, because Julian left in a hurry, the crude camp built in the valley hadn't been demolished yet, so Leila's team picked it up and repaired it to become a temporary camp for the crusade team. At the same time, they checked the demon lair on the cliff. Unfortunately, Not much to gain.

Julian had already transferred all the valuables, and removed all valuables such as gems and gold and silver patterns on the demon altar, and destroyed the rest at will.

"Those humans stayed in the valley?" What Julian didn't expect was that those humans stayed in his lair directly. Originally, Julian planned to send some cannon fodder to continue to harass them so that these humans would not withdraw, but he didn't want the other party to live directly. I can't go down.

Julian rubbed his hands, and then said to a demonized human subordinate: "Go and inform Ron that the plan has changed, and the brigade should not retreat."

After the subordinate took his orders and left, Julian summoned a few more little devils, tied them up, and flew into the night with them.

bang~
The crossbow strings sounded, and a straight crossbow pierced through the head of a sluggish little devil. After the little devil threw himself to the ground without even groaning, a mature-looking adventurer walked cautiously from behind the tree. When he came out, he looked at the fallen little devil with some surprise on his face.

I have been in the mountain for so long, not to mention demons, even goblins have not seen a few, wild beasts and monsters are seen more than these wilderness monsters, let alone demons, this adventurer did not expect that this early in the morning Not far from the camp, I saw a sneaky little devil. Although the head of the little devil is not very valuable, it is worth a few more silver Tahrir than those goblins.

Except for this adventurer, many adventurers in the team who got up early in the morning and stayed up all night picked up a lot of silly little devils outside the camp, which can be considered a small profit, and the news spread quickly in the camp. The adventurers and mercenaries who were already doing nothing could no longer sit still.

"The demons haven't completely left. From morning to now, four adventure teams have successively hunted down the little demons watching around the camp." Ruen frowned and reported the adventurers' report to Leila, but his expression was worried.

"Then, does this mean that those demons are not willing to escape?" Layla's expression moved, and there was a little more expectation in her eyes.

"It may also be confusing us." Lieutenant Ruen expressed his worries quite directly.

"Huh?" Leila was a little surprised when she heard the words, but said after a short silence: "You mean these little devils are deliberately let us find out?"

"Yes, and it's very possible." Roen participated in the border war between the Talia Kingdom and the Falcon Principality when he was in the army. He is a genuine battlefield veteran, especially with rich experience in specific small-scale battles. Julian's lure the enemy The meaning is too obvious.

"Devils are not stupid goblins. We can't let our arrogance fool our eyes. These little devils should be the bait for fishing. Those devils must have a huge conspiracy to catch us here." At this moment, the servants The head of the corps was not in this rough temporary meeting room, and Ruen didn't hide it in his words.

"Uh, so you mean...retreat?" Leila asked hesitantly, with hesitation on her face.

"I have to retreat. If I hesitate any longer, I might not be able to leave." Lieutenant Luen looked resolute. Although Luen suggested staying behind yesterday, the little devil that appeared strangely today made Luen keenly sense the danger.

Leila frowned and thought for a while before she nodded in disappointment: "Okay, I... I can't put so many people in danger for my own selfishness, I'll let people Go and inform the group leaders."

"Let me go. Some people need me, an old guy, to convince them." Then Ruen picked up his helmet and carried a warhammer to persuade the mercenary group.

However, Leila's team couldn't set out to retreat before dark, and the scattered adventurers couldn't be recruited back in a short time. Even half of the mercenary group went out to search for the demons.

It turned out that the adventurer who came back with the little devil's head in the morning aroused other people's thoughts after receiving the money, so the mercenaries of each regiment couldn't hold back, and about half of them were sent out to hunt the devil. These mercenary groups None of the people came back, so naturally they couldn't leave.

Even until midnight, several people still did not come back.

"Don't wait, those people probably won't be able to come back." Ruen said to Leila, who was looking uneasy, "Go and rest first, we need to evacuate immediately tomorrow morning, I hope the demons' conspiracy at that time It hasn't worked out yet."

Marching at night is even more harmful. Human beings are not creatures that can walk freely in the dark like demons. If they march at night, they are very easy to be attacked by demons in the dark.

In the night, Julian was still working overtime. Several captured humans were thrown by Julian not far in front of the demon troops coming from the north. Several captives let out some blood, and the smell of blood could not only attract beasts, but also demons.

"Master Benji, those humans have explained that a group of human troops who came to fight against demons stopped in a small valley to the south. As for why they suddenly fell into a coma and appeared nearby, they themselves don't know." A demon with a particularly ferocious face humbly reported to Benjihui.

Benji was taken aback when he heard the words, then glanced at the blood foam in the other party's mouth and the minced meat between the teeth, and then said: "So someone wants to lure us to eat those humans? Hehe, let the flying Go first, don't attack rashly, just keep an eye on those humans."

"Okay, Lord Benji." The demon picked his teeth and turned his head to leave, but was stopped by Benji.

"You idiot, do I still have to ask myself? What about my share?" Benji said coldly as he punched the demon in the head who was pretending to be stupid.

"How...how could it be? Master Benji, your share is right outside the door. The best part of the meat has been processed for you. It is medium-rare and served on a silver plate. There are all knives and forks, and there is also a bottle of canned meat." The red wine of resentful souls." It's hard to think that an ugly and terrifying demon can express a flattering expression.

"Hmph, not bad, let's go." Benji finally showed a somewhat satisfied smile. As for who wanted to lure them to kill those humans, Benji couldn't guess for a moment, but that didn't matter.

The army of demons is invincible in the world, so why be afraid of the little ones.

At dawn, the sun has not yet risen, the light is quite dim, the forest is quite cold, and the dewdrops on the leaves have not yet dripped.

The mercenaries were forcibly woken up amidst a lot of complaints, and then hurriedly ate a simple breakfast, packed their bags and prepared to go back. For this armed patrol in the mountains, some mercenaries were happy, and some mercenaries were angry. He was happy that he made a small sum of money without a big battle, and he was angry that he originally wanted to kill monsters to make more money, but now he returned without success, so he was naturally indignant.
