The exact location of the Demon King City is unknown to anyone.
As soon as Xuelu heard about the Demon King City, her eyes lit up. She quickly took out a map of the Jinghong Mountains from her pocket. This map was known as the Macroscopic Region Map. Robb, unable to locate mines on it, couldnt prioritize mining at the mont. It was impossible to focus on mining without first resolving the issue of the monsters.
The monsters in the Jinghong Mountains had to be defeated before the adventurers could join forces and help him recover the ore.
Xuelus finger moved across the map as she spoke, Although the exact location of the Demon King City is unknown, the mbers of our Adventurers Guild have narrowed it down to a small area through the efforts of countless adventurers over hundreds of years.
She pointed to the northwest region of the Jinghong Mountains and said, Its right here. Its said that the Black Dragons lair is also nearby. However, the Black Dragon only causes trouble during the Year of the Black Dragon. It remains in its lair, sleeping, unless soone provokes it. It wont take action otherwise.
Robb understood this much. The Black Dragon was an NPC from the ga who had crossed over to this world. It would certainly act according to the rules set by the ga. It caused chaos once every four years, and during the intervals, it remained inactive. It wouldnt do anything unless soone entered its active attack range.
Well carefully search this area, and well definitely find the Demon King City, Xuelu said.
Robb asked, If you can find it by carefully searching this area, why hasnt anyone from the Adventurers Guild found it in hundreds of years?
Xuelu chuckled and said, They werent strong enough! The adventurers who went to search there all died.
Robb remained silent. Describing them as a group of weaklings was actually a way of praising themthey were nothing more than a bunch of insects.
Suddenly, Xuelu turned to Robb with a mischievous smile.
Unable to resist, Robb asked, Just say what you want to say. Stop staring at and laughing like that.
Xuelu said, Darling, when we go on this adventure, can you please stop rushing ahead and doing everything? Let the three of us, ah, no, including Suofa, make it four, handle it. Let the four of us engage the monsters first, and if we cant handle it, then you can join in.
Robb asked curiously, Why make it so complicated?
Because if you deal with all the monsters at once, there wont be any left for to enjoy the adventure, Xuelu replied. Exploring the Demon King City has been my lifelong dreama grand adventure Ive always wanted to undertake. If you sweep through everything, wheres the fun in that?
Robb responded, Whats the point? Were here to do serious business.
Doing serious business is also about satisfying your sense of justice, isnt it? Ultimately, its a form of spiritual fulfillnt, Xuelu explained. And I want to go on an adventure, to experience excitent and joy. Its equally important.
Robb remained silent.
Alright, although it sounds a bit off, it actually makes sense. Robb has always believed that anyone doing good deeds is ultimately seeking a sense of fulfillnt.
When humans perform good deeds, they experience a spiritual satisfaction. This is the driving force behind everyones good deeds, and it cannot be denied.
Well then, Ill play the role of a priest and provide healing for everyone along the way, Robb chuckled. And you four, warrior, hunter, magician, and thief.
Suofa protested, Im not a thief, Im an assassin!
Gorda laughed and said, An assassin is just an advanced thief, right? The skills are similar, its all about lock-picking, stealth, and assassination. The only difference is that thieves are more basic.
Suofa protested vehently, But Im an assassin, not a thief.
Alright, alright, youre an assassin, Robb laughed. In any case, we are a standard five-person team: warrior, magician, priest, hunter, and assassin.
Finishing his words, he sohow conjured a staff of life from sowhere and held it in his hand, saying with a smile, Now, do I look like a priest?
Gorda chuckled, You need to add a wow to make it convincing.
Robb exclaid, Wow!
The other four individuals collectively sweated, Such a punchable voice.
Thats the voice that needs to be punchable. Its the essence of being a priest. You guys understand nothing, Robb laughed. Lets go, to the Demon King City.
And so, the great adventurers party of five set off towards the northwest. They beca the first team in the history of the Fengmo Continent to set foot in the Demon King City. Their story was destined to beco an epic, and of course, heres a sneak peek into the stories that the poets will sing.
The legendary party of five, braving all obstacles, defeating countless monsters, ventured deep into the Demon King City. They fought the evil demons with all their might, shedding blood and sweat but not tears. After a bloody battle, they finally laid the demon race to rest, bringing peace to the Fengmo Continent.
The poems of the poets were always filled with this glorious and righteous style. However, the actual situation was quite different. Behind the scenes, it looked more like this: Wow! Xuelu! Great job, Robb hid behind a large rock, casting a basic healing spell while pretending to tremble and shouted, Quickly defeat this minotaur. Im so scared.
Xuelu swung her staff, relentlessly pounding a minotaur, leaving it covered in bruises.
Suofa grumbled from behind, What kind of magician are you? Use so magic attacks!
While vigorously swinging her staff, Xuelu laughed and said, Im actually testing the effectiveness of the newly learned beginner staff combat techniques from my training manual. This training manual is so useful, my staff combat skills have beco so strong, haha. Its like the skills of a monk, right? Haha, its fun, its fun.
This is not the ti to have fun! Take it down quickly, Suofa shouted. Be careful and dont get into trouble.
I do want to take it down, but I cant knock it out, Xuelu forcefully struck the minotaurs forehead. I dont know why, but these skills have such low power. Look, I hit it hard on the head, but it only got a few bruises and wont die.
Robb, from a distance, sarcastically remarked, The power of these skills cos from both strength and agility. Your strength and agility are too weak, so they dont have much impact.
Xuelu said, Then buff ! That skill, whats it called? Divine Blessing or sothing.
Robb shook his head, Youre asking for the impossible. Thats a skill for paladins. Im just a novice priest tagging along on this adventure. Im just here for the ride.
Xuelu exclaid, Hey!
She continued to protest, but Suofa couldnt take it anymore. In an instant, she jumped over and swiftly stabbed the minotaurs back with two Titansteel daggers. The minotaur let out a cry of pain and fell to the ground with a loud crash.
Suofa sheathed her daggers, clapped her hands, and turned around. Such a waste of ti, she said as she walked away.
