063 The Demon King's Choice (Part 1)
The Evil Mountain Tribe should be the largest force in the ancient orcs in Qingqing Grassland.
Standing on the high ridge, looking at the almost "infinite" residence at the foot of the mountain, lined up one after another, the smoke from the cooking stove was slow, and the setting sun was also a moving beauty.
The more than fifty followers were arranged in the "barracks" on the mountainside, and Xiao An could only bring two followers, so of course Ali and Ivy had to follow him.
The evil mountain is actually not steep, but the scenery is quite good. There are magnificent buildings on the top of the mountain, and uniquely shaped "ancient castles" are arranged around a huge "stone shed".
According to the sheep clan who led the way, the stone shed was an ancient altar, and the conference opened there.
Among the ancient castles around, there were already prophets of all races. The prophets of the sheep clan occupied more than ten consecutive places, which was also the one with the most visitors from all races.
Xiao An had no interest in studying the social body of the ancient orcs in the green grassland for the time being, and he was a little stunning when he looked at the huge altar on the top of the mountain...
Only he can see the arrow marked on the ground, and the final direction is the altar. In other words, the task is likely to be to ask him to enter the altar; if the later changes occur, tomorrow if the conference opens, tonight will be the best time to dive in.
Perhaps because of the unknown reputation, Xiao An was taken to a not-so-conspicuous castle. Several beautiful sheep-man sisters stood at the gate of the castle and greeted them affectionately.
The sheep man whistled and called his giant eagle mount in front of him. He rode on it and rode away on the wind, so he was so cool and happy.
Of course, I couldn't help but look at Xiao An, but it was obvious that these elder sisters were very professional and didn't talk about anything at all. They respectfully took the three of them into the castle...
At first glance, there were many village heads in the Sheep Village... Xiao An, who was actually a little blind in the Sheep Man, thought he had encountered the soul of the old prophet, and two drops of cold sweat appeared on his forehead.
In the originally lively hall, more than 20 white-haired old men and grandmas were instantly quiet after seeing Xiao An and Aiwei, especially when they saw the prophet scepter in Xiao An's hand, they were all puzzled.
"Cough," Xiao An coughed, and greeted the old sheepmen in the lobby in the language of the sheep clan, "Hello everyone, the weather is good, well, the weather is pretty good."
The eldest sister of the Sheep discovered Xiao An's embarrassment and whispered: "Prophet, your room is here..."
"I'm a little tired from rushing. Ali, please stay and listen to what you are talking about," Xiao An sold Ali directly, and without waiting for Ali to refute, he led Avi to the stairs beside him.
More than thirty prophets of the sheep tribe, more than 60 followers led by the prophets, and more than a hundred sheepmen from an ancient castle were all staring silently at the two legendary humans.
Could it be, maybe, maybe...
The prophet leadership team of their sheep tribe was mixed into the legend and only then did the detailed works sent by the race exist?
"Hi, haha," Xiao An laughed dryly, slowly closed the door of his room. The sound of locking the door latch echoed in the "inner patio-style" castle, a little harsh.
This also became a signal for the old prophets of the sheep to move forward - a group of old men walked steadily, instantly surrounding Ali, who was standing in the spot, and began a bombardment.
"What happened to your village! Why did you get a human being to be a prophet!"
"Is that human? Do humans exist in our Qingqing grassland?"
"You kid! Tell me quickly! I'm going to be anxious to death!"
Ali was almost swallowed by cold sweat, and he had a big tongue in a hurry. He explained for a long time before he told Xiao An's "rescue" to these sheep prophets.
What he said is of course the story of Xiao An after artistic processing on the road:
A long time ago... About a few years ago, two young humans who encountered shipwrecks were brought to a golden beach by the waves. After going through hardships and obstacles, they almost died several times. Finally, they survived from the habitat of a group of terrifying monsters and came to a quiet and peaceful sheep village...
In Ali's mouth, Xiao An became a down-to-earth, courageous and agile boy, and he was like a father and son with the original old pioneer.
Then, in an attack on the sheep village carefully planned by the wolf clan, Xiao An went forward bravely without fear of life and death, saved the villagers from the fire and water, led the sheep warriors to fight the enemy bravely, and finally defeated the wolf clan and was entrusted with important tasks by the old prophet...
Xiao An knew that he was a human being, and he tried everything to refuse, but he couldn't resist the invitation from the sheep village. In the end, he reluctantly became the prophet of the sheep village and was looking for the next prophet for the sheep village...
After memorizing this story that can be called a "masterpiece of shit history", Ali was moved by the prophet in the story who "contributed to the sheep village and did not take a needle and thread from the sheep man" so much that he almost cried.
Fortunately, I know there are false ingredients in it.
"This young man has kindness to us sheep," a prophet from a large tribe said with emotion.
"Isn't it a bit inappropriate to just let humans become the guides of our sheep tribe?"
"It's not right. As long as the next prophet is still our sheep man, that's nothing! Besides, humans, this is. Ask the guys who have seen humans before? Humans are prophets of our sheep, I can brag for ten years!"
In the room, Xiao An, who was pressing his ear against the door, finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Passed by luck, passed by luck.
"Master..." Ivy had already sat on the only bed at some time, shouting "Master" lightly, her face was a little flushed, her movements were a little squeamish, and her breathing began to become a little rapid, "Tonight, are I and the master alone?"
Xiao An replied calmly: "Where did you let Ali sleep?"
"It's the corridor outside," Aiwei bulged the corners of her mouth and looked at her master with a little resentment. Xiao An smiled but said nothing.
Really! How proactive should you take the initiative so that your master will develop some improper relationship with you! He is still a little girl who has never experienced the world. If he hadn't known the specific battle steps, he would have committed a crime against his master long ago!
Xiao An slid his straw sandals on the bed, yawned, "Let's sleep together, I guess I'm busy at night."
Ivy was shocked in an instant. What should I do to stay busy with at night?
What else can a lonely man and a widower be busy with? I didn’t expect that the master is still so traditional, but the night is indeed more romantic...
She smiled sweetly, helped the master carefully cover the quilt, then lay on the side of the bed, quietly staring at his master.
"Don't look at me, look outside, stay alert if you can't sleep."
"Oh," Aiwei responded a little disappointedly, but when she thought of 'I'm busy at night', she turned over happily, leaving most of the bed to the owner, waiting for the night to fall... Isn't it already night fall now!
"Master...it's already evening..."
"Ah?" Xiao An opened his eyes in a daze and looked at the sky outside the window, "I mean waiting for the night, it's late at night and it's quiet."
Ivy blinked and smiled shyly.
Ali did not enter the room to disturb them. The sheep man was quite conscious of the times. He set up a tent with a group of sheep guards outside the castle, drinking and chatting happily.
When it was late at night, the cry of sheep around the castle gradually subsided, the stars in the sky blinked, and the sheep on the ground were sleeping soundly.
Two figures hugged each other, but jumped out of a window in the ancient castle. Behind the slender man, wings appeared, slightly waved and rushed to the sky, blending into the night...
Some people who are busy in the middle of the night actually do this kind of thing!
Ivy pouted with dissatisfaction, hugged her master and flew in the valley, flying at high speed in the direction given by her master.
Although Xiao An also has two wings, the two wings are a little resistant in his heart, and it is too silence when used; Ivy's bat wings have a high degree of secrecy and are suitable for such sneaky things.
Originally, Xiao An thought he was going to the altar standing on the top of the mountain, but unexpectedly, after Ivy took him to the sky above the altar, the guidance arrow given by the system did not point directly below, but was still guiding the front.
Following the arrow's guidance, Xiao An directed Ivy to fly from the top of the mountain to the bottom of the mountain with her arms, and then slid towards a valley. Finally, she stopped in front of a cave without any guards and covered by lush grass.
The flashing arrows on the ground reminded myself...going in.
"Ivy, do you have ultrasound positioning?" Xiao An asked suddenly.
Ivy tilted her head and looked at her master in confusion... The master was saying these strange things again.
"Let's go in and take a look," Xiao An took out the Leng Feng Sword, "Concentrate, stay highly vigilant, don't take action without my order."
“Yes, master.”
Xiao An first picked up a stone from the entrance of the cave and threw it into it. He heard a few crisp collisions and echoes, as if the hole was quite deep.
Apart from that, there is no other sound.
Dada... The typing sound suddenly appeared. Xiao An looked at the words appearing on the Leng Feng sword, and was a little speechless, lowered his head and drilled into the hole.
‘The ancient orcs have their own languages, so there is no formed text to preserve history. They have forgotten this place and there is no danger inside. Just go directly into it and go to the deepest altar.’
Said it earlier! It made him suspicious!
The ground was a flat stone road. Xiao An grabbed the cold sword and walked forward with great strides, disturbing some dark creatures living in the cave.
The air is circulating and very dry; the passage is very long and I don’t know where to go.
It seems that there are some murals carved on the cave walls on both sides. Xiao An neither carries a torch nor is he interested in these things, so he rushes towards the depths of the cave.
After walking for almost half an hour, Xiao An thoughtfully, he must have walked to the bottom of the altar on the top of the mountain. This deep passage finally came to an end...
At the end is a palace built underground, but the hall is empty and seems to have been looted, and the pillars at the four corners of the hall have been destroyed to varying degrees.
In the middle of the hall, there is a square altar.
A dark green gem was inserted in the center of the altar. Xiao An took out the prophet's scepter in the ring and compared it. He found that the scepter in his hand, which was a stick of prophets in his hand, should be a copycat made of the gem stick in the middle of the altar.
Obviously, the goal of the mission is to take away this gem staff.
"Master, there seems to be an unknown aura here," Ivy was inexplicably nervous in her words.
Xiao An nodded. He couldn't feel it even if I didn't say it... It seemed that the source of the unknown aura was from the dark green staff.
Dada, the typing sound appears again.
Xiao An picked up the cold sword and looked at the sword body, and gradually frowned.
"Why are there so many words this time? I wonder if it's too eye-catching to see such a small word in this environment?"
"Owner?"
"It's okay, let me think about it..."
Xiao An responded casually, focusing all his attention on the words of the sword body, and he was a little confused about what the first sentence meant...
The first sentence of the text given by the system:
Chapter completed!
