Chapter 73 Jax: Let’s fight!

The wind of forbidden demons in Demacia is probably blowing.

"A villain who occupies a bridge and refuses to leave is very strong and is suspected to be a magician." Not long ago, this argument would have been a joke - could it be that others are stronger because they use magic?Can't it just be someone else who is talented and trains hard?It is vulgar to look down on others as strong.

But now... the wind has changed, and so has public opinion.

Led by the royal family, the demon seekers exaggerated the terror of magicians, once again raising the long-dormant "fear of magicians."Overnight, the magician once again became a scourge and a target of public criticism.

Even children who have never seen a magician - and don't even know what magic is - are full of fear - and even hatred - of magicians under the intimidation of people's ferocious faces.

Among neighbors, whenever there is any sign of something wrong, someone will usually report it - they will shout loudly that they have discovered a magician, and then invite the magic searcher to their home with great fanfare, only to find that the neighbor is just using magic. The technique holds the string and lifts the spoon.Some boring little tricks and tricks have become "important evidence."

The son was taught a lesson by his father, and he felt resentful in his heart, so he went to report it; there was a sheep missing from his sheepfold, and he suspected that it was a neighbor, so he went to report it; he lost money gambling outside, and he also suspected that the winner had used something "black." Magic”...No matter how ridiculous the statement, it always needs to be reported.

With so many funny chores like this, people don't have to work hard anymore and become suspicious every day - they both suspect others of having black magic and are also afraid that others will falsely accuse themselves of having black magic.

It's an evil thing that wastes people and money.

Only the people of the Demon Search Corps were laughing - the more chaotic it is, the more "clues" or "reports" there are, the greater their power and the higher their income - the more It's the kind of funny frame-up that takes all the benefits without taking any risks.

All in all, this was a disaster for Demacia.

Anything that goes too far will not end well...it's just that the king hasn't realized this problem yet.

But not for long.

Chen Ce, who is familiar with the development of Demacia's "history", is not too panicked - to say the least, he is also a demon hunter himself.

If you can't beat it, join in!

"Let's go, Chen Ce."

In front of the exit of the military camp, Jonathan, the captain of the demon searcher team, waved his hand.

"Let's go to Xiongdu Bridge and take a look... and take a look at the so-called 'outsider who may have used magic'."

Jax sat cross-legged in the middle of the bridge, his polearm resting on his knees.Demacia hadn't changed much since he'd last traveled this way, but that was nothing to be alarmed about.The people fanatically protected their territory and thus became very decent warriors.

Well, at least something decent... he thought to himself.At the same time, he wiped away a few drops of blood on the top of the softly shining lamppost.Drops of blood were brushed over the railing and fell into the river below.

He reached into his cloak and pulled out his third hard-boiled egg of the day.He knocked the egg lightly on the pebbles a few times, then slowly peeled off the shell.

[When eating boiled eggs, pour some vinegar. ] He suddenly remembered this sentence... How many years ago did he hear it?It’s been thousands of years, right?Or a full 1 years?

That was heard... from a young man before that war broke out.What was that young man's name... I don't quite remember.

He said... [Pour some vinegar and it will be easier to peel the shells. 】

Jax lifted the corner of his mask and took a bite of the egg, just as the warriors on the bridge were deciding who to send as his next opponent.

The peaceful scene before him made him feel homesick for a country that no longer existed.He shook off the chill of his memories, knowing that thoughts of Icathia would only serve as a distraction.

His cloak was thick, but the sun couldn't warm the mottled skin beneath it.Not a single bit of his skin was exposed.fair enough.He wasn't even sure what his skin looked like anymore.

A cold wind blew northward across the snow-capped mountains, and distant storms poured rain on unfamiliar fields and dwellings.There are almost no clouds in Ikasia's hometown, let alone rain.Maybe the storm will move all the way south, bringing rain with it and making the cobblestones on the bridge wet.That might make this battle more exciting.

Storms can also put opponents in a more disadvantageous position.Maybe that's not bad either.After all, a warrior who is qualified to fight alongside him against monsters from the other side must have at least some adaptability.

But such companions are not easy to find...

Jax quickly finished the hard-boiled egg in his hand, rubbing his two thick fingers together, and the fine crumbs from his fingertips fell to the bottom of the bridge.

How many days has it been?He has been here for a long time...probably about the same time as the last time he stayed here?Maybe a little longer...

He doesn't remember much.But it should be a full week.

He still couldn't wait for a qualified companion.

Those Demacia warriors have enough courage, but not enough martial arts... They always like to shout and shout forward, and then end their battles in the stupidest way - they are so weak Sometimes I even trip myself under the bridge.

For Demacia?They always like to shout like this.

But is it useful?They liked to shout like this one or two hundred years ago - oh, sorry, that's their ancestor.

But it's not too bad.

Demacia... What are you doing for Demacia?When those damn monsters come over, will the country still have any meaning to exist?Only surviving is true...

Even just one...

Jax yawned.The warm sunshine made him feel sleepy.

So he peeled another hard-boiled egg.

The crowd under the bridge was still shouting.

"That guy has defeated more than a dozen knights!" A person said to others in a show-off manner - of course, not to show off how strong the outsider on the bridge was, but to show off that he had witnessed all the duels.Perhaps it will only make others think that he is idle, but he does not know it.

"More than that, I see there are... more than 20? Or even more." Another person also shouted, with a hint of thinking in his tone.How funny. "He even defeated Wal Vos, the dueling master from Mithral City."

"Who is the duel master in Mithril City? All the duel masters in our capital have been defeated by him!" Someone else participated in the discussion.

"From Xiongdu? You mean the one from Sebastian's family?"

"Yes!"

"Ah...this is really surprising..."

............

......

The discussion under the bridge was not very transmitted to the bridge, but Jax could hear it clearly - his five senses had become very terrifying after thousands of years of experience.

He could hear everyone's voices clearly...even the rhythm of their breathing.He knew what they were saying, but he couldn't quite understand it.

Like...who is Wall Worth?Who is the one who lives in Sebastian's house?

Is there anything I can watch about Duel Master these days?It always feels like they are all the same thing...

Jax shook his head and continued eating his hard-boiled eggs.

So he didn't notice a group of people in uniform walking silently into the crowd - well, he might have noticed it, but he didn't think there was anything special about that group of people - only strong warriors were worthy of him. Take a good look at it.

A group of demon seekers walked into the crowd.

The residents voluntarily gave way, and some small nobles did not dare to cause trouble for the Demon Search Corps at this time - they are now "monopolizing power"!

"Is that that person?" Jonathan, the captain of the demon searcher team, saw the strange man sitting cross-legged on the bridge at a glance. "Short and strong, his whole body is hidden in a coat and cloak, and he is wearing a mask... Is it him?"

"It's him." Another demon seeker nodded, "He has been here for several days... countless knights and duelists have been tricked by him in the past few days."

"I know." Jonathan nodded and took out a silver-white stone from his waist. "Then take this and test whether he uses evil black magic to defeat others - you know, the cunning, cunning, dirty little tricks."

"Oh...ah?" The Demon Searcher was stunned as soon as he took the Forbidden Demon Stone, "How to test it?"

"How to test? Don't you know how to use the forbidden magic stone?"

"I know, but..."

"Then if you just go up and have a fight with him, you'll know everything."

"what……?"

"Put the forbidden magic stone on his face. If he can easily beat you up, it will prove that he is not a black magician."

"...?"

"Go quickly, go quickly." Jonathan pushed his subordinate, "Go early and come back early. I'll treat you to dinner when we close the team later."

"Team, Captain... you can't do this...!" The Demon Searcher looked at the blood on the bridge, and his legs went weak even before the fight started.

The two started pushing and shoving.

Chen Ce stood aside and watched the show silently without saying anything - although he knew that Jax was not a "magician" in the true sense - at least he did not use any magic in the duel here.But it was useless even if he said it.

Because he has no way to prove this - he has no evidence, and others will naturally not believe him.

Beyond that, there’s the possibility of raising suspicion in others – how do you know?Do you know this monster-like outsider?

There is indeed magic in Jax, and it is not convenient to have anything to do with him in his current status.

He is a powerful partner in the fight against the void, and one of the few people who fully understands the existence and terror of the void, but now is really not a good time to go up and meet people.

At least not in public.

It would be better to find him alone later.

With Chen Ce thinking this, he observed the surrounding environment out of boredom.

then……

He happened to catch a glimpse of a somewhat familiar figure.

Although the man was wearing a coat and a hood, he still recognized the figure from behind at a glance.

Use demonic power to explore...it's really her.

Laxana Crownguard.

She always lowered her head, and her beautiful blue eyes looked around warily from time to time, as if she was afraid that someone was going to take her away.

With the intention of enjoying himself by helping to deceive people, Chen Ce squeezed through the crowded crowd and walked towards the girl.

Treasure chest reward...Oh no, Miss Lux, here I come!

Chen Ce squeezed through the crowd little by little. When it was too crowded, he simply used his extraordinary skills to pass over everyone's heads - but he didn't notice that his almost extraordinary movement was secretly watched by someone. .

Snap.The sound of landing suddenly sounded, and Lux, who was nervous, was startled.

She turned around nervously, but fortunately she was relieved to see the person in front of her - of course she knew him.Chen Ce, Galen’s friend.

"Good morning," Chen Ce greeted with a smile, "Hmm?"

But halfway through his greeting, the girl stretched out her hand to cover his mouth in a panic.

He dodged quickly and smiled even more, "What's the matter, Miss Lalala?"

"La la la...oh..." Lux realized that she had been made a joke.

"Good morning, Miss Lalala."

"Good morning, Mr. Chen Chen." The girl rolled her eyes at him.

Then she saw the other person open his arms.

"What are you doing……?"

"Say hello." Chen Ce smiled again, "Isn't that what you said in the lounge of the Demon Search Corps before? When people here want to celebrate, they will give each other a warm hug."

"Eh...? Oh..." Lux recalled what happened before - that time she couldn't control her magic power for some reason and came out in front of the other party... At that time, she could only hug her to avoid being discovered by the other party. Then I made up a random reason for that hug...

Sure enough, a lie requires countless lies to cover it up.

"Well...well...that's what happened..." the girl touched a strand of blond hair on her cheek, "but...is there anything worth celebrating now?"

"Of course there is."

"what?"

"Celebrating that I see you again."

"Eh……?"

"Since we left each other last time, I always thought about meeting you again - this feeling has finally been responded to. Isn't it worth celebrating?"

"Want to see me...?" The slightly ambiguous words made Lux feel a little embarrassed - of course, there was also a hint of pride and joy.

"Well, I've always missed you." Chen Ce smiled and glanced at the other person's chest - even though it was covered tightly, "Then, can you allow me to celebrate?"

"Well...of course." The extroverted Lux ​​hugged her without hesitation.

clang--!The Heart of Steel rang again.

Chen Ce was very satisfied.

Also very satisfied with this warm hug.

Lux is shorter than Sona, only about 1.6 meters three, and her figure is more petite - she is two or three years younger than Sona, and there is still some room for growth.She has a more girlish aura, and although she is not so soft when held, her figure curves are very obvious.

"Okay..." The hug with the opposite sex made Lux feel a little... strange.She seems to have overestimated her ability to bear it.

I don't hate it, but it obviously feels different from hugging a girl...so weird...
