Chapter 874 Frontline Battlefield

I have to say that Duanmuhuai's luck is really good this time.

Following the road pointed out by the village chief, they successfully arrived at the Kingdom of Paretia. Originally, Duanmuhuai was worried about whether he needed any identification documents, but unexpectedly the guard just checked them and let the three of them in. .

At first, Duanmu Huai thought he was lucky, but after entering, he discovered that the other party had his own arrangement.

That is the northern edge of the Kingdom of Paretia, which has become a battlefield.

The army led by the demons completely blocked the passage to the north, and even sent monsters to harass them from time to time. Fortunately, as a large country, the city walls around the Kingdom of Paretia were equipped with aerial barriers set up by great magicians from the ancient times. This prevented the demons from air raids like before.

Yes, but on the other hand, Duanmu Huai and the others can't get out.

No, strictly speaking it is not impossible to get out, but there are prerequisites.

That is to recapture the fortress ahead.

To put it simply, during the previous attack by the demons, the fortress station responsible for defending the northern border of the Kingdom of Paretia was captured by the demons, and the barrier also lost its effectiveness. Now the Kingdom of Paretia is hiding behind the second layer of barrier to confront the demons. There are three layers of barrier in the entire Kingdom of Paretia. The first layer is the border city wall, and the second layer is where Duanmu Huai and others are currently The third level of the royal city where it is located is in the royal palace.

Just because the first layer of barrier was broken, the demons were able to invade the territory of the Kingdom of Paretia. Therefore, in order to regain the lost territory, the Kingdom of Paretia recruited adventurers and troops to attack the north again and again. The underground fortress launched a charge.

But I have to say...

"It seems we are completely trapped here."

Duanmuhuai knocked over the last monster with a hammer, and then looked around helplessly. The adventurer's job is mainly to take the front line and clear out the threats ahead. However, several consecutive attacks were defeated by the monster army, which made Duanmu Huai very unhappy. To be honest, if it was just the three of them, they would have run away long ago. But every time, he had to cover the retreat of others - although he killed many monsters and demons, Duanmu Huai didn't like this kind of back-and-forth tug-of-war.

"The last monster has been killed, let's go back."

Duanmuhuai turned his head and glanced at Ojis sitting on his shoulder. The latter nodded slightly, then Duanmuhuai turned around and walked towards the way he came.

The adventurers' station is on the edge of the city. Adventurers from all over the world gather here. They all gather here to fight against the demons and the Demon King's army. Well, no wonder the guard didn't ask himself and others for it at that time. As for the supporting documents, I just put them in directly.

When Duanmuhuai and Ojisi returned to the hotel, it was already sunset time.

"Hey, you're back, Iron Warrior, little girl."

Duanmuhuai opened the door and walked into the hotel, and soon heard the greetings from the adventurers around him.

"How's it going today?"

"Same old thing, striker collapse again."

Duanmuhuai took off his helmet and sat on the chair next to him. The tried-and-tested chair made a miserable sound under Duanmuhuai's buttocks, but he still managed to hold on.

"But everyone else came back safely, thanks to you."

Looking at Duanmu Huai in front of him, the adventurers around him were also quite respectful. After all, every retreat requires someone to be at the rear, and Duanmu Huai shouldered the responsibility of the rear every time - and then killed all the chasing demons.

Over time, just seeing his steel body made other adventurers feel more at ease.

"Speaking of which, what exactly do the Royal Army plan to do? The instructions given have been vague for several days."

"I said before that we were going to mobilize the army, but why has there been no movement?"

After saying hello, the other adventurers soon turned the topic back to the current war against the demons. At this moment, a thin adventurer who looked like a thief came over and spoke mysteriously.

"Hey, by the way, I heard a little bit of gossip."

"Grapevine?"

"Yes, I heard that His Highness the Prince may personally lead the counterattack this time."

"Haha? Did you make a mistake?!"

The other adventurers were shocked when they heard the news.

"Are you kidding me? This is a battle that affects the fate of the North. How could a young brat be allowed to direct the battle? Isn't this a suicide?"

"That is to say, if it were Her Royal Highness, it would be more or less the same."

"That's the problem………"

"What prince and princess are you talking about? What does this have to do with our current war situation?"

Duanmuhuai also asked the waiter for snacks and drinks at this time, and asked doubtfully. Upon hearing his inquiry, the adventurers looked at each other.

"Oh, it sounds like you don't know yet, but actually..."

Soon, these adventurers gave a popular science introduction to Duanmu Huai, and after their introduction, Duanmu Huai finally understood the situation in this country.

According to these adventurers, the king of the Kingdom of Paretia has a son and a daughter. This is not surprising in itself, but there is a problem.

That is——that princess cannot use magic.

As I said before, in the ancient times of this world, the demons used magic to kill and attack humans. Later, humans also mastered magic, and they were able to block the attacks of the Demon King's army. Therefore, magicians are very respected, and the Kingdom of Paretia is also a country originally established by magicians. The royal family and nobles of this country are all able to use magic. It is precisely because of their existence that it is The reason why the Kingdom of Paretia was not destroyed by the demons.

Therefore, a princess who cannot use magic is obviously a stain on the royal family.

In fact, it has long been said among the people that the princess has given up her right to inherit the throne and is currently in a state of free rein.

Of course, if that's all it is, it has nothing to do with these adventurers.

And the reason why they are so keen on this topic is because--that princess is also an adventurer.

Yes, although she cannot use magic, this princess is very keen on making magic items, so every time a rare monster appears, she will follow the adventurers to defeat it.

At first, everyone didn't have good comments about the princess, but gradually they accepted her. On the one hand, the princess is cute and lively, and on the other hand, she is really capable, and she doesn't care about what happens to her at all. She is stained by the blood of monsters, and she always dismembers monsters with other adventurers, so everyone likes her.

And here’s the problem…

"I heard that among the nobles, some people think that the princess is very popular among the common people, which will affect the prince's succession, so in order to combat the princess' popularity..."

"Did His Highness the Prince lead the team?"

Upon hearing this, the adventurers also sighed in despair.

"When will this group of nobles be able to do some personnel work? We work hard on the front line every day. Do they do anything else besides discussing these boring things in the back? I think that prince is probably a loser..."

"Why haven't I seen that Princess?"

Duanmuhuai thought for a moment and determined that he had never seen anyone like him before.

"It's because the time doesn't match up. If you encounter any strange commissions, you can give it a try and maybe you'll get it. Oh, I won't say any more, the show is about to start."

After saying this, the adventurers turned their heads one after another and looked forward with expectant eyes. Then under their gaze, they saw a petite figure jumping out on the stage in the corner of the hall, smiling at them. Everyone waved.

"Hello everyone, I'm the cute real wit."

"Ohhhhhhh!!!"

Seeing the appearance of the real Ji Ling, the adventurers below suddenly started screaming like groupies, while the real Ji Ling laughed, and then the music started playing, and then the girl started singing and dancing in front of everyone.

"It seems that Zhen Ji Ling is also doing well."

Duanmu Huai leaned on the chair and looked at Zhen Ji Ling bouncing on the stage. She was not as powerful as Duan Muhuai and Ojisi, so she would only die if she went to the battlefield rashly. However, Jin Ji Ling also has his own specialties. As one of the most popular idols in Star Alliance, Jin Ji Ling is very good at singing and dancing.

So during this period, when Duanmu Huai and Ojisi went out to fight, Zhen Ji Ling was responsible for singing and dancing in the hotel to cheer up the adventurers.

After all, there is a lack of entertainment in this world, and Zhen Ling is a professional. He was quickly welcomed by many adventurers, and earned a lot of travel expenses. In addition, Duanmu Huai and Ojisi received many commissions during this period. Reward... Well, at least now Duanmu Huai and the others can escape from poverty.

Of course, there are not unintentional adventurers who try to take action against the real Ji Ling.

But...the real wit is Ma Niang.

Most people would be kicked away with just one hoof.

Zhen Ji Ling's performance was not long, but the atmosphere in the entire hall had already become lively. At this moment, Zhen Ji Ling also jumped off the stage and came to Duan Muhuai's side like a puppy.

"Ah, big brother."

As he threw himself into Duanmu Huai's arms, Zhen Ling raised his head and looked at him, while his tail behind him kept wagging.

"Is everything going well today?"

"I don't think it went well..."

"But Master."

At this time, Ogis, who was lying on Duanmuhuai's shoulder, also spoke.

"We can completely leave here and continue heading north. We don't need to stay here for too long."

"That's true, but as judges of the Tribunal, of course we have to protect humanity."

Having said this, Duanmuhuai patted Ogis on the head.

"You have to remember, Ogis, the mission of the Tribunal is to protect mankind and eliminate all existences that pose a threat to mankind. This is our responsibility. Although coming to this planet is an accident, for the Tribunal, we must What’s being done hasn’t changed.”

"However, destroying the Demon King can also protect humans."

Ogis tilted her head.

"As long as the demon king is eliminated and the barrier is lifted, the master can summon the power of the Tribunal, right? That way we will get more results than now."

"That's just if."

Duanmuhuai shook his head.

"I don't like what ifs."

"Dong dong dong dong————!"

At this moment, suddenly, there was a sound of hurried footsteps, and then the hotel door was suddenly pushed open, and then several adventurers rushed in. When they saw Duanmu Huai, their eyes suddenly lit up.

"Iron Warrior, we need your help!"
