Mayor Brubby is not the only one who misses the past.
The pattern of accepting commissions, completing them, and getting rewards reminded Lu Li of the old days. Back then, before everything became irreversible, he, Anna, and he ran a small detective agency, looking for commissions to earn shillings. Neighbors
Their respect, children's curiosity, Anna's cooking skills, Oliver's visit.
Lu Li's consciousness seemed to be split into two parts. While maintaining his unchanged rationality and calmness, he carefully examined every word in the contract with Beautiful Lake Town, looking for possible loopholes, while recalling the nostalgic tranquility of the past.
scene.
With the dusky wind and sand blowing on his face, Lu Li calmly and silently followed Sheriff Blue Blood out of the mayor's house and arrived at a sentry-like obsidian tower on the edge of Beautiful Lake Town.
Peng.
Sheriff Blue Blood covered the iron-clad copper door and beat the edge of the door to make it fit tightly with the door frame.
"Bring me the map."
Lu Li placed the three maps on Sheriff Blue Blood's outstretched paw. Sheriff Blue Blood only asked for the old map of Beautiful Lake Town, grabbed an iron rod, dipped it into the lava basin, and then clicked on the map.
The unknown leather emitted green smoke and curled up and was scorched in a circle. As the law enforcer of Beautiful Lake Town, Sheriff Blue Blood quite competently marked the locations of seven hell creatures around the town based on his memory.
"If you want to try your hand at it, the fire ant colonies in the upper reaches of the lava lake are a good target."
Throwing away the iron rod, the blue-blooded Sheriff returned the new transparent map to Lu Li to remind him of the guy who helped the town.
"What are fire ants?"
"...You don't know?" Sheriff Blue Blood paused.
"I just came to hell."
Although Lu Li came once more than 20 years ago.
Realizing that this human soul in front of him, who wanted to eliminate hidden dangers for the town, had been asking himself what a lemure was not long ago and knew nothing about hell, the blue-blooded police chief had to educate him about it for free.
Demons, devils, hellish creatures hold up the outline of hell.
Just like the evil spirits, evil spirits, monsters and ghosts on the earth's surface correspond to their respective meanings, the devils and hell creatures also represent their respective camps: hell creatures are the foundation and generally refer to creatures without intelligence, but it is as if all weirdness can be collectively called weird.
All demons and devils are also collectively referred to as hell creatures. Demons are transformed from souls and hell creatures, remaining in chaos, and usually possess themselves; devils are only transformed from souls, obeying order and becoming more intelligent.
As a demon, the blue-blooded devil naturally has disdain and disgust for devils, even if the mayor it respects has devil blood.
Fire ants are pure hellish creatures that gather in the same colonies as fire demons and use magma.
"Lemurs can bite off their waists, but be careful of the lava they spit out."
Hell creatures are usually not afraid of heat, as long as they are within the tolerance range.
And Lu Li, who is just a soul, should be avoided even more.
"There are still 5 o'clock in the night. The magma is dark and they will become asleep. You can set off at that time."
"night?"
Lala lala
The Blue Blood Sheriff's paws made a scraping sound.
Then Lu Li knew what night was: hell. The transliteration of hell as people in the old days knew it was Euglath.
The hell creature calls himself Son of Euglath.
Because hell is alive.
Hell has no human concepts of day and night, they prefer to be called awake and asleep.
When Uglath wakes up, the volcano erupts, the lava riots, the magma-like blood boils in the body, and endless energy is given to the hell creatures; when Ugrath falls asleep, the volcano becomes peaceful, the lava returns to tranquility, and the hell creatures become sleepy.
Become lazy and lazy.
Eugrath has gone through a long period of wakefulness, and will fall into a deep sleep five hours later.
Lu Li had no way of knowing whether this was the wishful thinking of the hell creatures or whether it was true. Theoretically, hell, as one of the projections of the main world, could not be a living creature, but in strange times, nothing could not happen.
However, Lu Li rejected the Blue Blood Sheriff's proposal. He didn't have much time to waste, even if it was five hours.
The fire ant nest is located in the southwest of the canyon, about ten miles away from Beautiful Lake Town. Realizing that traveling between these nests would take far more time than clearing them themselves, Lu Li asked the blue-blood police chief if there were any mounts in Beautiful Lake Town.
, got an affirmative answer.
jingle jingle jingle
Lu Li followed the blue-blooded Sheriff back to the tavern, and stopped in front of the centipede demon who was looking at him in panic.
"Can it."
Lu Li looked at the flustered and stunned Ampei, who seemed to have shrunk and turned into a ferocious one, and nodded.
"Centisper, you have been recruited by Beautiful Lake Town." The Blue Blood Sheriff's low announcement sounded in the Silent Tavern.
The Centipede Demon's eyes rolled in panic: "Can you refuse?"
"Your life will not be in danger, you are just serving as a mount to take me to my destination."
Before the Blue Blood Sheriff threatened and warned, Lu Li said to the Centipede Demon: "This is to do something for Beautiful Lake Town. After it is completed, you will have the opportunity to become a citizen of the town."
As mid-level demons who live in the wilderness without a fixed location, many of them tend to become urban residents, and the centipede demon happens to be one of them.
"I can guarantee you the validity of its words." Sheriff Blue Blood agreed.
So, Lu Li and the Blue Blood Sheriff left the tavern, followed by the Centipede Demon.
"You play with people's hearts like the devil."
The complaining blue-blooded Sheriff couldn't understand how Lu Li managed to find a mount for himself, find the townspeople of Beautiful Lake Town, and find a new home for the Centipede Demon.
It takes advantage of everyone but benefits everyone.
"It's just that you haven't thought of doing this."
If Meilihu Town opened its doors to absorb residents, there would not be only about fifty residents left like now.
But it will not allow order to be implemented in every corner.
Sheriff Blue Blood stopped at the edge of Beautiful Lake Town, watching Lu Li and Centipede Demon gradually disappear into the wind and sand under the rock wall.
The centipede demon swung its hundreds of jointed limbs, carrying Lu Li and crawling along the canyon.
The scent of the soul on its back cannot be coveted by it because the three intermediate demons that followed and then disappeared also have the devil's mark.
The devil's mark is a threat, but it is also a protection.
Although demons like to insult and ridicule demons for their cunning and cunning, they are superior to high-level demons and equal to demon kings, and no demon is willing to offend them.
The blazing wind blew in the face, and along the way the evil demons fled in panic due to the arrival of the centipede demon, and then wandered back because they smelled Lu Li's presence.
"How do you let the lemures avoid you?"
The centipede demon's answer rang in the wind: "Release the breath."
"Can I do it?"
"You are just food...you are not a demon."
Lu Li knew what he was going to say. Souls are just nourishment for hell creatures. Only a few souls can transform into hell creatures, from sheep to wolves, but most souls will become part of "Uglath" and "Uglath's Sons".
About ten minutes later, the Centipede Demon stopped along the canyon.
A dark red swamp composed of magma appeared in front of Lu Li.
