295 Fish Scales
“Susu…”
While Luo Ning was thinking, there was a rustling voice in his ear.
Luo Ning looked sideways and saw someone in the bushes pulling away the leaves of the bushes.
Although Luo Ning couldn’t feel the breath, it could be roughly seen from the outline that that person was definitely not Perseus.
Luo Ning turned slightly and aimed the target at the unknown person.
Behind the bush, a thin man with a hoe on his shoulder looked at Luo Ning curiously and surprised.
“Oh, I just said why there is light here…”
When he saw that Luo Ning was a normal human being, the man breathed a sigh of relief and comforted him.
“Lord Adventurer, it is impossible for you to break this barrier by yourself. This barrier has existed for more than a month. I have seen people try to break it several times, but in the end it was all in vain.”
The man’s hoe had fresh silt, the soles of the torn shoes were yellow mud, and the palms were covered with calluses of different sizes.
Luo Ning has seen a lot of bad people when he came to the human territory, at least the man in front of him who is similar to an ordinary working farmer is still trustworthy in his eyes.
Luo Ning looked carefully for a few moments, and then took his eyes back.
“If you want to go in, I still recommend that you wait for the magician of the empire to find a way to break it. You can’t do it alone…”
The man’s back was bent due to long-term labor. He was carrying a hoe on his shoulder, his complexion was yellow and thin, and he shook his head one after another.
“Don’t use magic here, the cows I raised were all scared away by your magic…”
“…You actually herd animals in such a place.”
Luo Ning said. It also felt strange in my heart.
There were very few people coming and going in the border area between the Demon Race Barrier and the Human Barrier. Except for the adventurers who were scheming, normal villagers and peasants would not come to this kind of place, so Luo Ning was a little wary.
The thin-faced man shook his head.
“You don’t know, there are no people or beasts coming to this kind of place. The plants grow vigorously, and it is the most suitable place for cattle. I usually drive the cattle over in the morning to eat some grass, and I will dig a few more pieces. Plant some vegetables and grains, and drive the cattle back in the evening…”
“You may not be able to understand my life like this, but I still urge you not to lose those terrifying magic, my cows have all run away…”
The man was about to cry without tears.
Although he didn’t know what kind of magic the adventurer used in front of him, those magics were already capable of shaking the earth, and they were definitely at the level of great magic.
Luo Ning thought for a while, but closed the magic book.
“Thank you, Le… If you want to go in, just follow the empire. I heard that the empire is also gathering adventurers and warriors recently to fight the demons together. You can go to Yilan King City to submit an application.”
Seeing that the adventurer let go of his hand, the man also breathed a sigh of relief.
Luo Ning thought for a moment and asked him, “Then do you know how to get to Yilan King City?”
“From here, to the south, about half a day’s journey is enough… But it’s getting late now, so I suggest you get up early before going on your way.”
With his arms crossed, the man roughly pointed Luo Ning in one direction.
Luo Ning nodded: “Thank you.”
He put the book away and glanced at the enchantment that returned to peace.
Luo Ning turned around and went back into the dense woods.
Behind the exuberant bushes, Perseus squatted on the ground with a banana leaf on his head. He stared at Luo Ning and walked over, smiling reluctantly at Luo Ning.
Behind Perseus, the white feathered dragon was also crawling on the ground, with some leaves hanging on its body, a small white chrysanthemum that can be seen everywhere in the woods on the round dragon head, and the big clear longan stared straight at Luo Ning. .
Guessing this appearance, he wanted to hide himself here, so as not to be seen by the cattle herders who passed by just now.
“I see that the person who is close to you has no magic power and no weapons, so I didn’t shoot.”
Perseus explained a little.
His grinning expression seemed to be taking credit, waiting for Luo Ning to praise him a few words.
“Yeah.” Luo Ning just nodded.
He didn’t even want to praise a big man.
If it was Raz, Luo Ning might have said something perfunctory, but the werewolf’s words…forget it.
“My magic can’t break the barrier.” Luo Ning said succinctly.
Perseus frowned: “Then, how are we going to get back? Should we think of a way?”
“We can still find a solution, but the most urgent task now is to confirm whether there is any danger in Demon King City.”
“That’s right, but if you can’t get in…how can you confirm the status of the Demon King’s Castle?” Perseus asked worriedly.
Luo Ning put his hand in his bag and touched it for a while, as if to confirm the existence of something, he asked Perseus again.
“Speaking of which, what do you think about Mina? According to the customs of Demon King City, do you, the Demon Kings, have to vote in the end?”
“There is no place for traitors in this seat’s eyes!”
Perseus suddenly raised his voice a little, and he said loudly: “This seat saw Mina come to this seat with his own eyes, and discussed with the saint what to do with this seat!”
“Also, you know that cunning mermaid is good at teleportation, and this seat was teleported from the demons to the periphery by her magic!!”
Perseus gnawed his teeth at the mention of this.
The loyalty of the wolf will not allow half a grain of sand in his eyes.
But Luo Ning looked at him thoughtfully and said again.
“In the end, after she discussed with the saint, she didn’t execute you, but locked you in the basement and told the church that she could use you as a bait to attract more demon kings.”
“But in fact, Mina knew the situation in Demon King City at the time. They didn’t attract the Demon King, but me… and she didn’t tell them my real situation, not even my appearance. didn’t say.”
“Do you think there is a possibility that Mina deliberately kidnapped you as a bait, completely wanting me to leave the Demon King City and bring a heavy blow to the church?”
“Heavy wounds… Then it’s a fact that she has severely wounded Laer!”
“It was the Saintess who wounded Laer.”
“But she deliberately lured you to the ambush of the Illuminati!!”
“Doing this allows me to ‘disappear’ those people without revealing my identity, which will greatly reduce the Holy See’s combat effectiveness.”
“I don’t care about her for whatever reason, the fact that she betrayed the demons has been confirmed, and I will not sympathize with her personal reasons, I just want to kill her!!”
Perseus became more and more excited as he spoke, his brows furrowed, his eyes glowing red.
Luo Ning sighed: “I didn’t explain it for her, I was just thinking of other possibilities.”
This Perseus just felt that the God of Creation was partial to the murlocs, and he was angry at the same time showing a bit of aggrieved.
Luo Ning explained something casually and asked him again.
“Then do you know the current situation of the ‘Blue Mackerel’ race?”
Perseus held his breath for a while, and then spoke slowly after suppressing his rage.
“Like this seat, the blue shark is the last bead of this continent, and their race was extinct a long time ago.”
“So it is.” Luo Ning nodded.
I also have some numbers in my mind.
He still vaguely remembered that the last time Mina met him by the river, she whispered to him that her race was not extinct.
“I’ll give you a mission, Perseus.” Luo Ning said lightly.
“you say.”
Perseus responded quite bluntly.
Although the two are not in a subordinate relationship now, it is almost the same.
When a demon is afraid of someone, it is equivalent to being tamed.
“Find the cattle of the cowherd just now, but rush to return it to him. When I used magic just now, I scare the cattle away.”
“…”
Perseus froze for a moment.
“You actually asked me… to drive cattle for humans?!”
“What’s the matter,” Luo Ning shrugged, “Isn’t wolves the best at driving cattle and sheep?”
“That’s a sheepdog!”
“more or less.”
“…”
Perseus was speechless for a moment.
“Come on,” Luo Ning urged, “I want to think about something now, and your presence here will affect me.”
“…” Perseus let out a breath of hot air from his nostrils, and then his expression became helpless.
He bowed his body and gradually turned into a silver wolf.
This wolf looks much more normal, and seems to have deliberately suppressed its size. Except for the spirituality of its eyes, its appearance is similar to that of an ordinary forest wolf.
“This seat is gone.”
“Um.”
Luo Ning nodded, watching the wolf disappear into the bushes.
Hearing the sound of his footsteps walking away, Luo Ning turned around and said to the little angel beside him.
“You are optimistic about the white feather dragon here, don’t be discovered.”
“Hey, where is Lord God going!”
Raz tilted his head, puzzled.
“Go do something, and let Perseus wait there when he comes back.”
“Well… Raz understands.” Raz nodded his head and responded in a low voice.
Luo Ning casually touched her soft curly hair, and then walked towards the depths of the woods.
If he remembered correctly, he saw a river here when he fell from the sky just now.
After walking about a hundred paces, Luo Ning felt a refreshing wind.
The riverbed was right in front of him, and the river was flowing silently.
Compared to the roaring river before, it was as quiet as a secret deep in the forest.
The river is very narrow, only two or three meters wide, and the water flow is just below the depth of the calf.
Luo Ning stood by the river and felt the fish scales in his pocket.
Mina was able to find Luo Ning accurately because of it, or… is she using this locator to monitor Luo Ning?
In fact, after Luo Ning knew that Mina was a traitor of the Demon Race, he thought about whether to throw away the scales.
But after thinking about it, he felt that things should not be so simple.
He believes that he is quite accurate in seeing people.
At least whether the other party is lying, whether he is really malicious to him, Luo Ning can still tell.
Luo Ning squatted down and soaked the fish scales in the river water.
The river flowed slowly, Luo Ning gently wrapped the scales with his hands to prevent it from being carried away by the current.
There are no fish swimming in the clear water, and the fish scales exude sparkling spots on the bottom of the water, which are gorgeous and eye-catching.
