Although the word "sewer" represents the stench and filthiness, when she heard that it was about destroying the demons that might exist in it, Kai'Sa didn't feel disgusted at all, and was even a little eager to try it.
After inquiring at the banquet, she learned that the desert outside Lu Gaoyin City was also occupied by a group of demons.
Because of this, no one cared about whether there was anyone coming from the monastery.
After Chen Hao defeated Andariel, the first group of adventurers who went to Lu Gaoyin were overjoyed, thinking that they would enjoy happiness by coming to Lu Gaoyin.
As a result, there were demons everywhere along the way, and many adventurers died in the desert.
In the end, only a little more than half of the people managed to reach Lugaoyin.
Before arriving, everyone in the team was well prepared under Chen Hao's warning. They knew that they were not coming to Lu Gaoyin for a vacation, and they might face more powerful demons.
The nearly invincible lawn mowing team outside Rogge City have long been impatient for this.
They don't want to use creatures like the foul-smelling crow to gain meager experience every day, as that won't improve their strength much at all!
Chen Hao blinked and looked at Kasha from beginning to end.
Until the end, the witch blushed and hit Chen Hao with the leaf staff in her hand: "What are you looking at? Is there anything good to see?"
"Why are you, a pretty young girl, so interested in sewers?" Chen Hao said with contempt, "Is that a good place? Are you in such a hurry to go?"
"Chen Hao, you!!!" Kasha stomped her feet angrily, "I'm just worried about the residents in Lu Gaoyin City. Didn't you listen to what His Majesty Jie Hain just said? Many residents have been arrested. Just yesterday.
, the bodies of a father and son were also found at the sewer entrance. These demons are too cruel and abominable, I must destroy them!"
"I didn't expect you to be such a good young man!" Chen Hao blinked, "Okay, since you want to go so much, let's go to the sewer after collecting the information. What do you think?"
"What other information do you need to collect? With your temperament, shouldn't you set off immediately tomorrow morning?" Kaisha asked.
Chen Hao shook his head, looked back at the outline of Lu Gaoyin's palace, came to Kane and said softly: "Old man, there is something wrong with that Jie Hain!"
"Chen Hao, what do you mean?" Seeing Chen Hao's serious look, Kane's face instantly turned serious, "You mean, that Jie Hain is a devil in disguise?"
"No, he is not a demon, he is a real human being." Chen Hao shook his head, "And judging from the attitudes of the guards and maids around him, he doesn't look like someone else is pretending to be one."
"Then what do you mean?" Kane asked doubtfully.
"I mean there's something wrong with this matter." Chen Hao frowned and said, "It's true that there are demons in the sewers. He also has a lot of mercenaries under his command. Why not send his own troops to eliminate them?"
"Didn't His Majesty Jehain say that? He also hired high-level adventurers, but he didn't find any useful clues." Kane explained.
"No, no, no, this is too weird!" Chen Hao still shook his head, "Logically speaking, a king shouldn't be involved in this trivial matter, and he specially treated me to a meal and then assigned me a task. Such a thing, his subordinates can do it casually
A mercenary leader or officer can issue a mission, there is no need for him to come to me in person. This is so weird!"
Lu Gao's people are tough because of their strong folk customs, and these mercenary gunmen dare not take adventurers seriously because they have military and royal backgrounds.
The arrogant Maimaiti from before is the best example.
With such a powerful army, if Jie Hain really wanted to clean up the sewers, he could do it himself.
There is no need to wait here for Chen Hao, the hero who defeated Andariel.
And in Chen Hao's opinion, this task was originally assigned by the hotel proprietress, but you, the king of Lu Gaoyin, did it for you?
If something goes wrong, there must be something fishy!
"Chen Hao, you mean that Jie Hain deliberately led you to the sewer?" Kane reacted instantly.
"Yes, that's what I think." Chen Hao snapped his fingers.
"If this is really the case, there must be danger in the sewers!" Kane also became alert, "Chen Hao, why don't I go talk to His Majesty Jehain and let's gather a group of other adventurers to explore the sewers again!
"
"No, no, no, there's no need to go to that trouble." Chen Hao shook his head, "I'm definitely going to the sewer. What I just said is just to give everyone a head start."
"But I will definitely not just listen to Jehain's side of the story on this matter. At the very least, I want to go to the market and ask first to hear what the local residents think of this matter."
"When the time comes, we'll find a guide who knows the terrain well, and we'll set off immediately."
Kane nodded after hearing this, "That's enough."
...
When he arrived at Lu Gaoyin's market, Chen Hao first opened a room for everyone and paid three months' rent, thus temporarily renting these houses.
After settling down, they divided into three groups. Chen Hao took Daisy and Diana to the market to gather information.
Warev: "I heard that some walking corpses would appear in the desert at night. Unfortunately, I didn't see it with my own eyes."
Aigis: "I heard that this creature in the sewers kills his prey in order to extract the ribs! I guess that makes me less likely to be his next target, don't you think?"
Farah: "I am convinced that the creature you are looking for should be an ancient Horadric mummy. He should have come out of an ancient tomb buried under the desert. What puzzles me is how this creature could be so far away from his resting place.
What? I can tell you secretly that these days I can always feel an entity that cannot sleep, and a soul full of malice within it."
Drognan: "Farah and I talked about the creature that appeared recently. Based on my research, I speculated that it was a fallen Rhodament, the ancient Horadric mummy. It left for some reason
He has his own ancient tomb, and he came here to hunt humans for this reason. I am doing further research now, and if you come back later, I may be able to find out more information about his essence and nature."
Glaze: "While patrolling a few days ago, I found some demon corpses that were washed out of the sewers. They usually had some ribs or heads missing, and their bodies were usually skinned. Just now.
It started with these creatures attacking the town at night... Oh, by the way, that's how Atma lost her husband and son. Now we have trapped him in the sewers. But don't worry, on the surface...
It’s very safe, but there are always some adventurers like you in the city who like to be heroes and secretly go to the sewers to look for demons, but they rarely come back. Oh, I’m sorry, I’m not talking about you.”
Yatma: "Wuwuwu, I know that my husband and children did not die in the hands of the devil, they were killed by people! The person who killed them was the robber Graz! Wuwuwu..."
In front of the bar of the tavern, Chen Hao frowned and looked back at Daisy.
After asking so many famous people in the city, I finally got a different answer from Kuzhu.
