Chapter 461: A Glorious Sacrifice (I)
Of course, this militia can't tell where the Red Mist Demon has gone. Originally, he was in charge of standing guard outside the grain depot, but when he saw the thick fog behind him, he wondered if he might take advantage of the fog to be lazy and hide for a while -- this is not surprising, and most of the people in the National Salvation Army have this quality, and it is a miracle that they have not collapsed until now.
And this laziness stole a glimmer of life for him, originally this militia was thinking of getting warm in the granary for a while, but the attack and killing of the red fog demon outside also alarmed him, after sneaking to see the situation outside, this guy was also frightened, and panicked to find an empty sack to put himself in, which was also stupid, he was not a one-eyed uncle, and he thought that no one would find out if he got into the empty cardboard box.
But now it doesn't look like I really haven't found it.
Jenn couldn't be too demanding of this kind of person, so he could only retreat and ask where the fog came from. To this question, the militiaman answered unequivocally.
"It's coming down the hillside!"
ββ¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β
There are so many mountains around here, who knows which one you're talking about?
After tossing and turning for a moment, Jenn still asked the others to take the scared half-dead guy out, and then asked him to show the way, which determined the direction. But then...............
"Great, my lord, why don't we retreat first."
Although the people below are not as capable as Jenn, they also looked around in fear after listening to the words of the militia, although these people have basically participated in the battle behind Tagus City, and have killed many undead creatures, but those things have a body, and they know what they are. But according to the militia, these monsters don't even have a body. How to fight this!
"We can't retreat!"
Jenn decisively rejected this suggestion, it's all up to this, the movie is about to enter the most exciting part after the prologue, if this is not over and will not be stoned to death by the audience? So he immediately waved his hand and gave an answer.
"I know what kind of monster it is, though the Red Mist Demon is in a bit of trouble. But the paladins didn't have any problem dealing with them. And it's not easy for us to destroy them, but it's easy to block their attacks. As he spoke, Jenn pondered for a moment while putting on makeup. Tell the people stationed outside to come, and then all of you will hide in the granary. Remember to plug all the holes in the grain depot. I'll use the Templar's amulet to set up an enchantment, and the Red Mist is sensitive to sacred enchantments, and even if they come back, we'll be able to block them. And the grain depot is the center of Khalkhaland, and if we leave, in case something goes wrong with the food here. Then there will be a lot of people starving! β
Speaking of this, Jenn snorted coldly, and then he looked at everyone with "righteousness and strictness".
"Are you willing to watch them starve? Or do you eat white bread in the city of Tagus, so you don't care about the lives of the rest of the people? β
"Of course not, sir!"
Hearing this, the soldiers before also hurriedly shook their heads in fear. Although they did have these careful thoughts in their hearts, they naturally couldn't admit it when they heard Jenn say this.
"It's good to know."
For these people's thoughts. Jenn naturally knew, though he didn't care. But at this time, he always has to act in a full set. The Oscar winner will end up in person, if he can't get the little golden man if he smashes the performance, it will be a lack of professional ethics. Isn't it just a show of acting, who's afraid of whom. So he looked at his subordinates and spoke.
"Don't think it's unfair to you. You know, Fuqat has the important task of providing food to people in many parts of Khalkhaland. If the food is destroyed, or contaminated. Then we have to get food out of the army, and you should understand what that means. β
Hearing Jenn's words, he was still a little unimpressed. The face of the soldier, who thought that it had nothing to do with him, suddenly changed. You must know that after entering Khalkhaland, these meritorious veterans have changed their guns for guns during this time, and the white bread of chicken, duck, fish, meat and meat has not stopped. And if there is a problem with the food reserves here, and the supplies in Tagus City have to be allocated, then it means that they will not be able to eat such good things. How could they agree to such a thing? You have to say no......... Think of the paladins who roam the city of Tagus all day long, and they are not cowardly.
As soon as they thought of this, everyone immediately straightened their attitudes, so that they had white bread to eat every day. And if it's over, they'll probably have to go back to nibbling on brown bread. What's more, Lord James said that these monsters are not impossible to deal with, and he has followed Lord James for so long, and he has not seen him brag about any time, and he said that there is a way......... That should be fine. Thinking of this, those soldiers also acted quickly, fortunately, as an important person in the Free Salvation Army, Jenn had a badge in his hand that could protect against the evil enchantment, and after he ordered everyone to do a good job of defense, he activated this badge in the granary, and then ordered everyone to be loyal to their duties, and until Nadia Paladins arrived to respond, they were not allowed to leave the granary for half a step.
"But......... What about you, my lord? β
After listening to Jenn's instructions, someone hesitated for a moment and asked. Hearing his question, Jenn shook his head.
"I'm going to go and see, there must be something wrong with these red mist demons suddenly appearing. And there was also a group of half-elves before that......... If it's a cultist, it's troublesome, so I'm going to look at the situation and if there's any problem, I'd better prepare early. β
"This ........."
Hearing Jenn's answer, the others were embarrassed, they originally thought that Jenn would stay with them, so that everyone could rest assured. After all, these people have been following Jenn for a long time, and they also understand that Jenn's strength is very strong, and they will be more relieved to have him, but at this moment, hearing Jenn say that he actually wants to go alone to search for those monsters, this suddenly makes people uneasy. I heard the militiaman say that those monsters were hiding in the mist, and ordinary people couldn't do anything about them. If something goes wrong.........
"Your Excellency!"
And at this moment, I saw a soldier come out of it, come to Jenn, and look at him with a determined face. And behind him. Four or five people also came out one after another. I saw that the young man at the head hesitated for a moment before he spoke.
"I'd like to go with you, if you'll allow me."
"Oh?"
Hearing this, Jenn glanced up and down at the entourage in front of him with a little curiosity, if he remembered correctly, these young men should have been the ones who went with him to stop the chasseurs. He has experienced a lot of battles with him, and he can be regarded as Jenn's cronies. The strength of this group of people is not bad, but they are .........
"That's ........."
Under Jenn's gaze, the young man was visibly nervous, but he stammered.
"Well, it's more dangerous outside after all, and it's too risky for you to go alone, so I think it's better for a few more people to go with you to be safe." If something happens, it's good to have a ............... to take care of."
"No problem."
didn't wait for the other party to finish. Jenn smiled. is so willing to support himself in a supporting role, and now he takes the initiative to stand up, if he doesn't make good use of it, then he is too stupid. Thinking of this, Jenn smiled slightly, then he nodded, and then spoke.
"Let's go."
Finding the traces of those Red Mist Demons was not a difficult task for Jenn. As a demon, he was born with a sense of innate with those demons in the lower realm. As long as they are nearby. Then Jenn could feel something, as if now, Jenn could clearly feel that the Red Mist Demons were gathering in a nearby valley -- maybe they were taking a nap when they were full?
Because of this, it didn't take long for Jenn to find the location of the Red Mist Demon with the few young people who volunteered to come out with him.
"Your Excellency. You say that's the Red Mist? β
Lying in the snowdrift, looking at the pure white that looked like a thick fog swirling below the hillside, the young scout couldn't help but ask in surprise. Hearing his question, Jenn nodded.
"That's right, the Red Mist hates the sun. These guys, like mushrooms, prefer dark, damp places. β
Jenn narrowed his eyes as he answered the other party's question.
"Now it looks like these guys are clearly digesting ......... Generally speaking, though, the Red Mist Demon shouldn't be seen in this kind of place, they're not a kind of monster that likes to move, and there have never been similar rumors in the surrounding area........."
As he spoke, Jenn turned his gaze back to the mist below. However, this was just a gesture he made, in fact, he had already guessed that these Red Mist Demons must be pets owned by some people. As for who some people are............ Thinking of this, Jenn couldn't help but glance at the hillside not far away, and a smile flashed in his eyes.
Don't walk away, the answer will be revealed immediately after the advertisement.

At this moment, with a sharp call, I saw that the mist began to spin rapidly, and then they condensed, and flew towards the other side of the hill like dust sucked up by a vacuum cleaner, and then disappeared into the hands of a man in a pitch-black robe. And seeing the other party's triangular pointed ears, Jenn also looked stunned.
Half-elf? It seems that the people mentioned in the intelligence are indeed them.
At this moment, there were about twenty half-elves standing on the hillside, all of them wearing black robes and a white belt around their waists, looking as if they were ascetics or going to mourn. I saw that the black-robed half-elf before was holding a crystal bottle in his hand, and it looked like it should be the thing that imprisoned the Red Mist Demon. I saw the black robe close the crystal bottle, then turn around and bend down respectfully to hand it to the old man behind him, whispered something between the two, and then saw them walking towards the other side of the hill.
"My lord, who are they?"
"Cultists."
To his subordinates' inquiries, Jenn immediately gave an answer. This weird outfit is definitely a cultist, and there is almost no second option. Thinking of this, Jenn also shrugged his shoulders, others may not be able to see it, but he has already sensed that the strength of these cultists is not weak, that old man even has the level of the peak of the master, and the others also have almost the strength of the elite midstream. This kind of strength is enough to become a powerful escort of a midstream lord. And even in a cult, there are not many teams that really have such power.
Look at how they dress......... It should be that the Rambler didn't run.
Looking at the figures of those black-robed half-elves, a gleam flashed in Jenn's eyes.
He had already figured out how to play the next play.
Thinking of this, Jenn did not hesitate and quickly spoke.
"Let's go along and see what these guys are trying to do." (To be continued......)
