The Unemployed Demon Lord

The flickering flames in the hall made Copperfield's shadow appear extremely huge, revealing a sense of oppression.

"Your Majesty!" Zooey quickly knelt down on one knee, feeling uncomfortable with the empty left hand.

"Zoe, Karona's soul fire has been extinguished, do you know what happened?" Copperfield's voice was a little old, and his subordinates' repeated misses made him very tired inside.

Originally, the four heroes of the former Kingdom were all strong men who could stand on their own, but now, for some reason, they fell one after another, as if some unknown powerful force hindered them.

"Carona was killed by an adventurer, not only Karona, but also Malygos, who was killed together." Zoe replied seriously.

Even now recalling the scene where Merlin instantly killed the Frost Dragon and Karona, Zoe felt a little terrified.

However, Zoe still felt that the profound meaning of fusion with her younger brother should have the power to fight.

After all, it is a move known for its attack power. If it is a head-on attack, Merlin will be disabled even if he is not dead. Zoe feels that the defense of a mere human can never be stronger than that of the giant king, right?

Since he can kill the Giant King, Merlin is naturally no problem.

"What!? Malygos is dead too?"

Copperfield's figure shook for a moment, obviously frightened and unbelievable.

Malygos, the holy dragon of frost, is one of the six great holy dragons, whose mighty power can shock a country!

But now he has been killed by someone. Could it be that there is such a hidden legendary powerhouse in Britain! ?

If this is the case, it will be difficult to revive the great cause of the former kingdom.

"Is the person who stole the key so powerful?"

"It's a black iron adventurer." Zooey replied, and seemed to see the adventurer proof on Merlin's neck in a trance, it was black iron.

"Ah?" Copperfield exclaimed in astonishment, thinking he had heard wrong.

A mere black iron adventurer of the lowest level actually killed the Frost Holy Dragon, what's going on! ?

It sounds like a joke, aren't the villagers in Britain descended from Super Saiyans? ?

"Your Majesty, although the other party is a black iron adventurer, his strength is indeed strong. I have seen it with my own eyes, so Malygos and Karona are not opponents at all. I am afraid that only my brother and I can use our full fusion secrets to have a chance of winning." Zoe Said nervously.

"Brother is right." Joey echoed.

"I always thought Karona was a smart person, but in the end, tsk..."

Copperfield's head hurt a little, he didn't expect that he acted so cautiously, but he still attracted the attention of a powerful enemy.

But it doesn't matter, as long as the burning legion of hell is summoned, any strong man will be trampled by iron hooves, and the revival of the former kingdom must be an unstoppable thing.

Copperfield's mood stabilized a bit, and he felt that he hadn't lost yet, as long as he got the fourth key to the Legion of Hell, he could instantly turn the situation around.

"It's fine if this useless thing dies, but where is the fourth key!? Haven't you got it back yet!" "Yes." Zoe said helplessly, wanting to snatch it from Merlin without merit. The risk of death is extremely high.

"Trash! They're all trash! The situation is becoming more and more urgent! We have no more time to waste!" Kapperfield trembled angrily, hitting the ground with his staff frequently.

"Your Majesty, please calm down. Carona did not die in vain. She has left us clues about the key." Zooey said respectfully with her head down.

"What clue?" Copperfield asked suspiciously.

"This woman..." Zooey pointed to Alice, who was unconscious next to her, "They and his wife stole the key, and now this woman is our hostage. Karona has already told her husband to take the key and come to redeem her." , we just have to wait."

"Can that person come?" Copperfield had a doubt in his heart, if he didn't come to redeem him, he would lose everything.

Zooey thought of Merlin's scarlet eyes like a god of death, and couldn't help leaving a drop of cold sweat on his forehead, "If I can come, my arm was cut off by that adventurer, which shows how much he values ​​his wife."

"Really, it seems that our dream has not been shattered, the current passivity is only temporary, and the moment the fourth key falls into our hands will turn the tide of the battle!" Copperfield opened his arms, with his burning ambition, Still did not go out.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Zooey lowered her head.

"Brother is right." Joey agreed stiffly.

Copperfield came in front of Zoe, his face was hidden under the black robe so that he couldn't see clearly, only his withered hands were exposed.

"Zoe, let me fix your arm?"

"No, thank you Your Majesty for your kindness." Zoe refused.

"Why?" Copperfield asked in surprise.

"When the black iron adventurer comes with the key, I will kill him with my own hands! Cut off his arm, sew it on my body, and become my eternal merit!" Zoe said with fierce eyes, full of fighting spirit.

"As expected of the best swordsman in our kingdom, I am very proud of you!" Copperfield's black robe fluttered, and he pointed at the unconscious Alice with a finger like a bone

"Put this woman together with the elves in the dungeon!"

"When her husband brings the key, it will be the end of Great Britain!"

"All enemies who stand in the way of our cause will be burned to ashes by the flames of hell..."

Chapter 2: Monthly Ticket Addition

A dark and dank dungeon.

I don't know how much time has passed

Although the temple is located on top of a volcano, the air in the dungeon is not dry, and intermittent water droplets can be heard, making this narrow dungeon a strange atmosphere.

"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo..."

The choked voice of a girl constantly sobbing echoed in the dungeon in the dark, her voice full of haggardness, crying like a cuckoo in the middle of the night.

Who is crying?

A young girl?

The unconscious Alice, lying on the cold ground, slowly regained consciousness.

Alice's long eyelashes moved, and she opened her eyes tiredly, and her blue pupils gradually recovered.

What caught my eye was the dilapidated ground covered with moss, and the water from the roof kept falling into the stagnant water.

Despite the flickering light of the torches, the dungeon was dimly lit.

Alice felt sore all over, and slowly sat up with her hands supporting her body, her head was also a little unconscious.

Sticky dust stood on her pretty face, and her long silver hair was not as glamorous as it used to be.

Where is this?not my home...

Alice looked at the unfamiliar place, feeling a little uneasy. She rubbed her aching forehead, and some memory fragments flashed in her mind.

Ah, by the way, I was beaten unconscious by a strange woman, who seemed to be a thief from the former kingdom.

He wanted to take me as a hostage and coerce Merlin to hand over the previous mysterious key.

So, I have been caught by them to an unknown place now, right?

What can I do now?How bad I was turned into a hostage!

Alice frowned, and couldn't help becoming anxious inside, feeling that she couldn't just sit and wait for death, she had to find a way to escape by herself.

She looked at the iron cage in front of her, and felt that it was not very strong. If she used high-level grudge, she could leave easily.

Alice grabbed the iron fence with both hands and broke it hard, but the high-level grudge could not be mobilized at all, as if blocked.

She was startled, and hurriedly looked at herself to see if there was anything similar to blocking the magic power, and it turned out that there was an iron ring around her neck, which would not be easily removed.

Alice had worn this kind of thing on the Redbeard pirate ship before, and it would turn people into ordinary people, unable to use the slightest bit of magic power and grudge.

Alice suddenly looked like a deflated ball, her shoulders slumped. It was obviously just an ordinary iron prison, but she had no choice but to wait for someone to rescue her.

Can that fellow Merlin come and save me?

You don't want to care about me at all, or you are occupying my bed at home, yelling happily, right?

Thinking about it, it's really possible. After all, that bastard Merlin is heartless and possessed by lazy cancer. Maybe he really doesn't care about my life...

Alice held her forehead with her hand, feeling that the situation was getting serious. Apart from Merlin, she really didn't know who would come to save her. As for the teacher on the Snowy Mountain, she didn't even know where she went wild.

That key is such a big trouble, it shouldn't be hidden under Merlin's bewitchment.

Sure enough, nothing good will happen when he and Merlin get together!

The remnants of the former kingdom are so obsessed with this key, obviously they have a big secret, maybe there is a real treasure.

If the key can really obtain countless treasures, the big villain Merlin will definitely choose to take his own share.

Then he paid off his debts, swept away the small treasury under his bed, and lived a happy life alone.

Sure enough, demons are untrustworthy guys!

Tears glistened in Alice's eyes, and the more she thought about it, the more frightening she became, her delicate body couldn't help but tremble, like an abandoned kitten, very pitiful in the iron cage.

Originally, the joint debt was the only connection between the two, but now if Merlin had endless treasures, this connection would be gone, and he would definitely not come to save him.

Alice didn't regard Merlin as a good person, but a guy who was only interested in profit. He didn't talk about friendship at all. After all, he was a cold-blooded devil.

However, there is still luck in Alice's heart. If the key is not a treasure, then Merlin will definitely come over to save her, and she is absolutely unwilling to pay the joint debt by herself.

Alice folded her hands together and began to pray (curse) devoutly

My lord, let Merlin be poor for the rest of his life, don't let him turn around...

The damp feeling and sour smell in the dungeon made Alice very uncomfortable, and she couldn't help fanning her nose, but at this moment, there was a slight sobbing sound in the darkness beside her.

"Woooooooo..."

"Um!?"

Alice looked to the side in surprise. In the dark cage, it seemed that not only herself, but also someone else was there?

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu..."

The choking voice was very subtle, and I couldn't hear it clearly unless I listened carefully.

Alice thought it's no wonder that she heard the girl's cry just now, and there were indeed other people in this narrow cell.

When Alice got close enough, with the help of the faint firelight, she could barely see the girl in the corner

She was wearing a relatively gorgeous blue dress, but it was already a little tattered and dirty.

The jewelry she wears also looks expensive, and she is not an ordinary girl at first glance.
