People are in the alliance, but the Taiwan server system

"Well, see you later."

Chen Ce silently left the noisy and restless crowd and took Sona's hand to the other side of the town.

The city lord began to organize people to deal with the funeral arrangements for the poor deceased, and the demon hunters also pretended to be wandering around the city with the forbidden magic stone.

To be honest, Chen Ce didn't know what methods those demon hunters wanted to use to frame or trap him, nor did he know exactly when they were going to take action... He only roughly knew that they were going to take advantage of today's demon search operation. Take action.

But it doesn't matter, anyway, when tonight comes, their plans will be disrupted - they certainly didn't expect Nocturne to be found tonight.

At that time, they will be forced to take action in advance.

Then...if they can't help it, just kill them and Nocturne.

"Miss Sona, get ready before night comes."

[Okay...] Sona hugged Zuohua tightly in her arms.

The other hand felt the warmth of the other person's palm.

The sun begins to set toward the west, and the shadows lengthen.

Chen Ce took Sona around the city, pretending, while the demon Ram was constantly searching for traces of the "devil junior".

Finally, before night completely enveloped Forsbarrow, it had a general direction—in the suburbs north of Forsbarrow.

[I roughly found it...I need you to go in that direction now...I can find it accurately...]

"So fast?" Chen Ce was a little surprised.

[It is impatient...its energy is starting to become restless...I feel its anger...]

Hearing this, Chen Ce could probably guess why Nocturne was "angry" - Lissandra gave it a good education in the dream last night, letting it understand what it meant to be a "dream master".

This is coming for revenge.

"Okay, I'll go over now..." Chen Ce took Sona's hand and changed direction, heading towards the suburbs in the north of the city.

But at this moment, those demon hunters who had also been wandering around all day came over.

"Have you discovered anything, Chen Ce?" The leader waved his hand enthusiastically from a few dozen meters away.

"...Not yet." After hesitating for a moment, Chen Ce still didn't tell the truth.

"Oh, that's really a pity... but fortunately, we have some clues here." The demon searcher smiled, "I think we have found traces of it - a lot."

"Oh?" Chen Ce stopped with interest.

Seeing this, the demon searcher explained with a smile on his face: "We found traces of the black magician in several directions in the city - but unfortunately, we can't trace it anymore."

"why?"

"We don't have enough manpower. We're splitting up, but we still can't fully cover the tracks."

"It's a pity."

"Yes... So, Chen Ce, can I trouble you to help us track it?"

"Please tell me." Chen Ce had already guessed something.

But what he didn't expect was the direction of the other person's finger next -

"The northern outskirts of the city," said the demon searcher, "I need you to go there to search for traces of the black magician - there are clues there too. I'm sure."

It happens to be the direction Ram mentioned...

In this way, Chen Ce nodded to express his acceptance, "No problem, then I'll leave the rest to you."

"Ah, of course." The leader of the demon searchers smiled - perhaps this was his only sincere smile in the past few days.

"See you later." Chen Ce gave a military salute and immediately took Sona towards the northern suburbs of the city.

Behind him are the cold gazes of the demon hunters...

…………

……

The air is filled with the scent of pine and wildflowers, a gift from Demacia's northern mountains.Sona enjoyed the beauty of being close to nature. However, the smell of earth suddenly reminded her of the scene in her nightmare, and she couldn't help but feel chills on her back.

The two of them were looking for a path forward in the gradually darkening jungle, and that uncomfortable feeling of envelopment came over again... It was as if the shadows had turned into entities... and turned into the devil's huge mouth and sharp claws. Claws.

Chen Ce began to release the power of the devil to resist this discomfort.

Along the way, Ram also continued to send instructions.

Finally, they stopped in a clearing deep in the forest.

Chen Ce saw something strange...a statue.

It looked like a statue of an angel, but its face had some disgusting mud smeared on it, which had dried into lumps.Its wings were covered with vines, and one hand was artificially cut off.There seemed to be something like blood and tears in its eyes, flowing down into black marks.

This statue standing here is strange and ugly, but Chen Ce feels a little familiar inexplicably...

He stepped forward slowly and saw the face of the angel statue clearly in the faint light.

This is……

Morgana?

[The statue of the masked man. ] Sona on the side also recognized the statue - but of course, her recognition was not the same as Chen Ce. [I haven’t seen it in years... I didn’t expect there to be a statue of the masked man here. 】

"It doesn't look that good." Chen Ce looked at the statue's face and shook his head. "This is malicious slander."

[Hmm... I think so too. ] Sona agreed, [I have seen older and more authentic statues of masked men elsewhere, and they are obviously more beautiful. 】

"How ironic..." Chen Ce couldn't help but sigh.

Compared to the other angel - Kyle, "Fallen Angel" Morgana is the one who cares about mortals, but she has been smeared by mortals to such an extent... Should she be said to be worthy of the power of the person in power?

Only high-ranking nobles who are in charge of the law are more inclined to become followers of Kyle.

Real people should believe in Morgana.

But now...even ordinary people have despised her.

irony, irony...

Chen Ce sighed, retracted his thoughts, and prepared to continue looking for Nocturne under Ram's guidance.

But at this moment, Sona, who was born aphasic but has extremely sensitive hearing, suddenly showed an uneasy look.

[Someone...] She held Chen Ce's hand tightly, [Someone was approaching...]

"Ok?"

Chen Ce put his hand on the hilt of the sword almost as a reflex, and at the same time looked in the direction indicated by Sona.

It's the way you came.

After waiting for a long time, a vague figure gradually came...

No, not one, several.

Those demon hunters.

Nocturne hasn't even come out yet, why are you so anxious to take action?

"You are here, Chen Ce..." the leader of the demon searchers said in a gentle tone.

But Chen Ce was no longer too lazy to pretend to them, "I just arrived here not long ago. Did you follow me not long after I set off?"

Hearing this, the leader of the demon searchers did not speak, but the other demon searcher next to him whispered in a complicated tone:

"This is different from what was planned... It's better not to worry about it yet... It's easier to leave clues this way..."

Their initial plan was to "kill with a borrowed knife" - after finding the black magician, let Chen Ce go to him alone and sell him - if Chen Ce really had something, they could even help the black magician attack Chen Ce when necessary.But now... if we take action directly...?

It would be too unclean to do something... it would be easy to be discovered...

Chen Ce used the power of the devil to get a glimpse of the [secret] and heard a little bit of the conversation.

But before he could take action, the leader of the demon searchers took action first.

A flash of cold light flashed, and his sword blade was stained with blood.

But...it's not Chen Ce's.

But of his teammates.

"...!" The demon seeker whose throat was cut instantly opened his eyes in disbelief. He wanted to question but could not make a sound.

"What are you doing?!" Several other demon seekers also drew their swords in horror.

The leader of the demon searchers was just laughing.

"You are all going to die... you are all going to die..."

A strange black mist emerged from his bloodshot eyes...

Chapter 87 The Redemption of Fallen Angels

The sudden change made Chen Ce a little confused.

Of course he knew that these demon hunters were coming for him, but to attack his companions...?This is really unbelievable...

He noticed the black mist emerging from the other person's eyes... He quickly thought of Nocturne - a demon possessing humans... but something seemed wrong.

Humans "possessed" by Nocturne have no self-awareness at all. They can only yell and attack randomly like a madman exposed to some extreme fear, but they will not retain a certain degree of self-awareness like this.

"It's interesting now..."

Chen Ce clenched the hilt of the sword warily, hesitating whether to use magic power directly.

"What are you doing?!" Those who were more at a loss than Chen Ce were the demon hunters - they had witnessed a "civil strife" with their own eyes.

The crazy demon seeker didn't reply, but picked at the body of his dead companion with his sword.

He cut off the latter's head bit by bit in front of everyone.

The sound of the sharp blade cutting through flesh and blood was already very terrifying, and the sound of sawing off the cervical spine was even more chilling... The crunching sound echoed in the forest until the entire head was cut off by him.

The corpse fell to the dirt floor, and two pillars of blood spurted out from the neck.The head rolled down to Chen Ce's feet.At this time, a curling black smoke rolled out of the corpse, just like the gurgling black mucus in the corpse pit.

Several demon hunters were horrified. A ghostly figure, with teeth and claws and fire in its eyes, shot out from the dead man's head.

"Damn it...it's the black magician! Run!" A man screamed and ran towards the town of Forsbarrow.

Others also ran away one after another, without any intention of "capturing the black magician".

As for helping Chen Ce, there is no need to think about it.

They even shot a few flaming arrows at Chen Ce while escaping.

The flames ignited the dry leaves, and soon spread to the dead trees nearby, then to the grass, bushes...

Within a moment, raging fire blocked the road to the town of Forsbarrow.

Although the process was not smooth and the ending was a bit weird, the final goal was finally accomplished... They now wanted to kill Chen Ce with the help of a black magician.

The dazzling firelight dispelled the darkness to a large extent, but it also stretched the shadows of several people.Chen Ce saw that the shadow projected onto the ground behind him was also deformed and twisted like a monster, with teeth and claws.

[This is not the body of the devil yet...] Ram's voice came at the right time, [But this mortal also has part of its will... You can further find it by killing him...]

"That's what I meant." Chen Ce pulled out the sword from its scabbard.

Sona on the side didn't even react, the magic sword light had already fallen.

The distance of more than ten meters was only a blink of an eye in front of Chen Ce.

The sword-drawing speed of [Steel Cutting Flash] is probably one of the fastest sword skills in the world.

The demon seeker's head was cut off instantly like it was made of paper.

But... no blood was shed.

The section of his broken neck was pitch black, like a bottomless black hole... No blood spilled out, instead it was replaced by that weird black mist.

And his severed head could still speak: "Chen Ce... you will definitely die... you will definitely..."

Until this moment, he seemed to still retain a little bit of personal consciousness - he remembered that he was here to kill Chen Ce.

But of course he doesn't remember that he is not who he is now.

The black mist came, and Chen Ce was about to use the power of the devil to fight violence with violence, but the girl next to him was one step faster than him.
