Demon King: Hero, don't run away!-Chapter 1333: Patting Her Chest
Capítulo 1333: Chapter 1333: Patting Her Chest
Handing the square box to Bai Jin, Bai Jin cautiously injected magic power into the square box, activating the magic array on it.
In an instant, a series of dazzling golden magic arrays spread out, enveloping Yang Yu and Bai Jin.
Before their eyes, a series of scenes appeared simultaneously.
On a vast plain, a person quietly approached and placed a palm-sized square box on the ground. In a flash, magic arrays continually generated from inside the square box, covering the surroundings.
“Zoom—” suddenly, their vision followed that person’s perspective, arriving at a dim underground maze, where they saw a stone tablet engraved with a long sword.
Suddenly, the image before Yang Yu and Bai Jin abruptly stopped.
The magic light that spread out instantly converged, and the scene disappeared accordingly.
The scenery before Yang Yu’s eyes was once again replaced by the blue sky and ocean. This magic still didn’t tell Yang Yu exactly where he needed to go to find the [Hall of History].
Could it be that it could be anywhere, as long as the square box is placed on the ground?
Sensing the confusion in Yang Yu’s eyes, Bai Jin provided the answer:
“That underground maze is located within Serti, the exact location is here.”
Bai Jin swung the magic wand, drawing a world map in the air with magic, marking the location she sensed with a blue dot located in the source area of the Serti Star Moon River,
“This is where the location indicated by the information on the square box points.”
“Serti, huh? It’s a bit far.”
Examining the magic map, Yang Yu frowned as the tasks they needed to accomplish piled up.
They not only needed to send Slime back to the Slime Kingdom but also had to return the girl imprisoned by the [Count Blood] to her homeland. Along the way, they had to grab something from Chilom in the Luo Ze Empire, or they wouldn’t have the money to compensate for the [Dragon God’s Might] warship.
Once everything is done, they’ll head to Serti, but who knows how long it will take. Perhaps by the time they get there, others will have already strategized it, and their trip will be for nothing.
If someone could take over, deliver the girls they rescued to the Luo Ze Empire, and get their desired items from Chilom, it could save them a lot of effort…
But where to find someone reliable and willing to make the trip right now?
Yang Yu couldn’t help but glance at Luo Luosi. The most suitable candidate, Yang Yu knew very well.
Leaving Bai Jin to wait for a moment, Yang Yu immediately went to communicate with Luo Luosi, telling her his plans without any reservations.
Luo Luosi propped her head with her hands, listening quietly.
When Yang Yu finished speaking, Luo Luosi removed her straw and glared at Yang Yu:
“So, you’re not planning to pay me directly?”
Yang Yu chuckled apologetically: “It’s not that I’m not paying. You understand. Money is needed everywhere.
I’m just a small adventurer, although I have some savings, I can’t afford to squander like this.
So, this time, I need to find a partner supporting me.
Anyway, when you go back, you’ll surely wait for new work, so this counts as me finding you new work.
The Luo Ze Empire has its own port, with your knowledge it should be easy to reach, and then, you just need to take my token over…
I’ll explain everything in the letter, and you don’t need to say much.
If you have anything to do, I won’t force you.”
Luo Luosi didn’t refuse directly, but glanced at the cracks on the shell and asked:
“Let me ask, how much are you preparing to pay me this time?”
Yang Yu knew Luo Luosi was testing his sincerity, smiled and said:
“That depends on what you’re asking for. 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖
We already have new goals and really hope you can take care of these tasks for us.
If your price isn’t too unreasonable, we can negotiate within our acceptable range.”
Before Luo Luosi could respond, Yang Yu leaned closer to her, his voice like a demon’s whisper continuing to sound:
“I did a slight investigation into the girls who were abducted.
While there are quite a few civilians mixed in, most of the girls’ parents are influential nobles.
[Count Blood] swapped them out, replacing them with enchanting demons under his command.
If you, as a representative, return these girls, their parents will surely be very grateful, certainly offering you their benefits.
Though we don’t know the value of the things they offer, if you agree to this, all those things can be considered yours as payment.”
Luo Luosi, originally hesitant, agreed to Yang Yu immediately upon hearing this:
“It’s a deal. But sending them back won’t be easy…. For safety’s sake, I can’t do it alone; give me more manpower.”
“That’s easy.
I’m also not comfortable with you taking them back alone.
Can’t assure those rebellious enchanting demons won’t launch an attack halfway; nor that those demons are completely loyal and won’t cause trouble.
As the helmsman, you need manpower in case chaos erupts.”
Yang Yu said this, but when it came to considering personnel, it seemed there was no other plan but relying on [Island Drifting].
Yang Yu wasn’t sure if [Island Drifting] would be willing to take up this task, so he could only boldly discuss the plan with Bai Jin and [Island Drifting].
[Island Drifting] was a comrade who had been through thick and thin with him; Yang Yu didn’t hide anything about the key from her.
After listening from start to finish, Lingshan almost without hesitation agreed to the task Yang Yu entrusted her:
“Entrust it to us, and you can rest assured.
You’re testing whether we’ll join you in strategizing there by saying everything about the key openly, aren’t you?
Actually, there’s no need.
We’ve also strategized that underground maze named after Hero Lox. It was called the [Special Defense Hall]. That underground maze was exceptionally difficult, we took more than ten days to pass the final stage.
While chatting leisurely with Luo Luosi, it was mentioned that you quickly strategized the maze upon entering the Spiny Scale Lizard Territory.
The fact that you collected so many keys from such an underground maze shows your Strength reaches Hero Lox’s expectations.
Hero Lox must have wanted to leave something to people like you when he built such an underground maze, setting such rules.
Our Strength is still far behind…
Joining would likely only hold you back.
It’s unavoidable, since the underground mazes in the Ocean Duchy are scattered and scarce.
Moreover, you are more suited to that Strength than we are.
The task of sending the girls to the Luo Ze Empire is assuredly in our hands, we’ll complete it as promised.”
Lingshan patted her chest, smiling heartily.
Yang Yu was momentarily speechless, but felt immensely gratified, extending a hand to Lingshan:
“Once again, I owe you a favor.”
Lingshan shook hands with Yang Yu, smiled and said, “Don’t be so formal. Helping you might just help the world.”
