Home of the Brave

First, the invasion of the female knight and the witch, then the runaway of the black-haired youth and the chaos caused by the jealous demon, and the peak duel that shocked the ground. In less than a day, the lair of the demon can be said to have gone through hundreds of years. An unprecedented catastrophe. These chaotic creatures, who have not received the favor of the gods, will probably take a long time to recover from the trauma caused by this catastrophe, right? However, even the dwarves who were sheltered by the **** of fire, Patricia, were also affected by the chaos from the underground.

The chaos first occurred in the Triumphal Square of Iron Rock Fort, where the fire was set up as a sign of "The Return of the Yanmen to the Lock", which was originally a passage for the dwarves to return. However, it was not a dwarf who came out of the opened Yanmen today, but countless naked women. Witnessing this shocking scene, the people on the street fell into chaos on the spot-the adventurer who was drinking and wandering, was shocked and spit out the wine in his mouth, and the dwarf who was sweating and ironing by the fire was hot. The hammer smashed into his own foot...A series of tragedies like this were staged, and the men were almost dumbfounded.

It wasn't until the women's screams pierced the silence of the street that the people who had finally recovered did not move in a panic. The dwarf aunts who rarely show up all walked out of the front desk, drove their husbands into the backstage with strong means, and then rushed over with the cloth that they could find at hand to help cover up the naked women who were at a loss in the square.

Perhaps because of the touch of returning to the world, the women were so excited, coupled with the language barrier, the dwarf aunts couldn't figure out where they came from for a long time. It wasn't until the old dwarves who had returned all the robbed women returned to the ground that the chaos on the scene was reduced. After briefly explaining the cause of the matter, the old dwarf Morton immediately issued an order in the name of the hammersmith, ordering Iron Rock Fort to enter a first-level alert state.

It should be said that the old dwarf did not predict that the scale of the riots would be so great at that time, but this measure undoubtedly allowed Iron Rock Fort to avoid losses to the greatest extent.

Before long, there was a rumbling roar from deep underground, and then the demons rushed out of the ground like crazy, but the dwarves had been waiting for it and hit the demons who came out. However, all misfortunes did not come singly. Just as the dwarves tried their best to prevent the monsters from madly attacking, a violent earthquake suddenly struck. The earthquake caught the dwarves by surprise, and the maze of Iron Rock Fortress was affected to varying degrees.

Fortunately, the dwarves have already strengthened the rock plates of the Iron Rock Fort, and the buildings in the fort are also quite strong, so most of the earthquakes caused only property losses. After the earthquake subsided and the demon was defeated, Tieyan Fort was also seriously damaged. Under the command of the hammersmith, the dwarves carried out rescue and repair operations in the fort overnight, and at the same time couldn't help but feel baffled by this sudden disaster.

Since the old dwarves claimed that they had only accidentally discovered the abnormal movement of the ghosts while digging underground, and the specific reasons are unknown, the dwarves can only complain about God’s malicious tricks while honestly repairing the iron rock fort. damage. Because this kind of thing hasn’t happened before, so the dwarves didn’t complain, but...

If they knew that someone who was the culprit of this situation was soaking in a hot spring comfortably at the moment, what would they think?

※※※

"Is that all right?"

Dai Yang carefully put the stone statue of the female knight into the hot spring water, juxtaposed with the stone statue of the witch next to him, and confirmed to Medusa behind him.

At that time, after Ji Yao handed over the ghost mother to him, he left leisurely. It took Dai Yang a while to understand the cause of the matter. Because Medusa was dying at the time, and the danger of the underground collapse at any time, Dai Yang had to use the old dwarf's "key" to open the door of the return, and put the two girls and the demons that are indispensable to dissolving petrification. First bring it to the workshop for temporary resettlement. At this time, the old dwarf was working outside to clean up the chaos around the Iron Rock Fort. There was no one else in the huge workshop, so there was no need to worry that the appearance of the ghost mother would cause a new panic.

After a short rest, Medusa regained some vitality, and Dai Yang asked about lifting the two girls from petrification. I don't know if it was because of being miserable by the jealous demon, or because of the man's grasp of the life pill, Medusa had completely given up the idea of ​​resistance, and said the way to relieve the petrification with a deadly voice.

A creature that was once petrified by Evil Eye will not die immediately, but its body will continue to be corroded by black magic during the petrification period, manifested by blood clogging and lower body temperature. If the petrochemicals were rushed at this time, even if they were able to regain consciousness, it would be difficult for their body functions to return to their normal state immediately, or it might leave a lifetime of disability. Xia Luwei's two girls were petrified for less than a day. However, for safety reasons, Dai Yang still followed Medusa's advice to immerse them in the hot spring and waited for their body temperature to rise before releasing the petrification.

"How long will it take?" Dai Yang asked.

"...The body temperature should just return to normal." Medusa reluctantly responded to Dai Yang.

"That will take a lot of time, I'll take a break first..." Dai Yang scratched his head, throwing off his coat and jumped into the hot spring pool.

The warm water soothed his heavy body, making him exhale comfortably. In retrospect, from the time when the old dwarf went down to dig a mine, to haunt the demon's lair, the fierce battle with the jealous demon, and the movement of the stone statues of the two girls back to the workshop, they were all intense activities all day, and the body would accumulate like this. The degree of fatigue is not unbelievable... Dai Yang thinking about it this way, his eyelids heavier, couldn't help but yawn, and ended up falling asleep like this.

...Although Dai Yang felt that he was sleeping very deep, he actually only had five or six minutes. Suddenly feeling breathing difficulties, Dai Yang woke up from his dream, feeling that someone was trying to pull himself out of the water. When he opened his eyes, he discovered that he had slipped into the hot spring without knowing it when he was asleep, and the person who saved him from drowning was the demon Medusa.

"Cough...cough!" Dai Yang coughed, and thanked Medusa a little embarrassedly. "No, I'm sorry, but I have to trouble you..."

"Nothing..." Medusa unnaturally avoided Dai Yang's sight.

"Wait, I did fall asleep just now..." Dai Yang suddenly noticed this. "Why don't you take the opportunity to run away? Or... uh, take the opportunity to kill me?"

"Do you want me to do this?" Medusa asked with a frown.

"Of course not, I'm just curious why you don't do that." Dai Yang stretched out in the hot spring pool and asked Medusa by the pool. "Demons are the upper life beings second only to the Dragons. All higher-level demons have extremely high self-esteem. It is impossible for you to be willing to take orders from mortals like this?"

"Are you a mortal..." Medusa looked at someone who was calming the jealousy with a mocking look, and then lowered her head sadly. "I now have no reason to fight, and no power to fight... and I have become your demon. My life belongs to you, and it is impossible for me to harm you."

"Well, that guy also mentioned this word, what does ‘being demon’ mean?" Dai Yang thought of Ji Demon’s words.

"The demon is..." Medusa showed a difficult expression. If there is a hint of malice in Dai Yang's question, the ghost mother with strong self-esteem would probably refuse to answer it? But there was only pure curiosity and worry on the face of the black-haired young man, and Medusa was able to reluctantly press down on the humiliation in his heart and explain it to him.

In the body of the demon is the life crystallization called "Fate Pill", which is the same as the "soul jade" crystallized by the soul. If the life pill is destroyed, the demon will die immediately, if it falls into the hands of others, the demon will be reduced to a slave that the other party can never resist, which is the origin of the "destroyed demon". The servant master who holds the life pill can control the demon's body according to his own will, or inflict pain at will. For the underwhelming demon, resisting the servant master is impossible.

"...My life pill has fallen into your grasp, and my own will is insignificant. Just like Ji Yao said, even if you want to put me on the fire and eat it, I can't make any resistance. "Medusa ended with these words, and the indifferent voice sounded particularly bleak.

"How could I do that?" Dai Yang frowned. "And speaking of it, that thing was still stuffed to me, and now it seems to be in the position of the dantian, what's the matter?"

"... It is a common thing for demons to collect the life pill of the demon. On the one hand, the servant can borrow the power of the demon through the life pill in his body. On the other hand, the death of the servant who possesses the life pill. , Which is equivalent to the death of the demon whose life pill was taken away, so the demon will instinctively protect the life of the servant." At this point, Medusa stared at Dai Yang with indifferent eyes. "So I just didn't help you, I just saved my life."

"You really have something to say..." Dai Yang smiled bitterly. The demon was originally a proud creature, and Medusa's straightforward attitude would not make him hate. "In addition, is there a way to take this thing out? I didn't mean to restrain you, and given the financial situation of my family, I can't afford two monsters."

"Two...Demons?" Medusa tilted her head, and the snake's tail shook as if confused.

"Ah, there is a birdman with wings asleep in my warehouse. I don't know how to deal with the headache..." Speaking of this, Dai Yang suddenly clapped his hands in excitement. "Wait, how about this? As long as you promise to take away the birdman from my family, I will return the life pill to you after the petrification is lifted. Everyone will never owe each other, how?"

"You, do you want to return the life pill to me?" Hearing his words, Medusa's face showed a move for the first time.
