The Secret Garden of the Dandelion Troupe - #285 - Chapter 285 Hunting in the Snow

There are no cities where humans are stationed, and there are no rainforests full of vitality. When you enter the Court of Exile from the belly of the majestic Land King Turtle, you will see the sky full of wind and snow.

The subzero temperature is not considered a harsh living environment, but there are no man-made facilities near the teleportation array at the entrance of the courtyard.

Locusts that are not afraid of the cold are jumping around in the snow, and the color of blood can be faintly seen in some muddy places that have been obviously trampled.

Those should be the traces left by the exiles who were close to the teleportation array.

It is said that when the exiles approach the teleportation array, they will be attacked by the swarm of insects, and there will be no trace of them in the world except for a little soil dyed red.

The cold wind rustled their cloaks, and a group of young men and women whose figures were covered stepped onto this windy and snowy land.

Among the crowd, Mu Hua was slightly surprised by a few people wearing bulky clothes.

They are human beings whose physical fitness is at the level of ordinary people. Mu Hua did not expect that there are such people among the banquet guests. It seems that the selection of contractors by the demon clan is really a bit ‘teaching without discrimination’.

A bright cold light flashed, and the use of technological weapons was not allowed in the Court of Exile.

Magic, combat skills, and even powerful holy swords, staffs, and bows can be used to kill the exiles.

However, including magic weapons, even offensive magic scrolls are prohibited from being used in this courtyard.

“Let’s go.” Holding the Night Demon Knife and confirming that there was no danger around the teleportation array, Mu Hua said to the three of them.

Tebitha is heavily armored and holds a shield. Although Barbara holds a long-handled battle ax, she and Tina are both equipped with light armor. Under the cover of their cloaks, Tebitha appears to be the more bulky among the three women. .

With endless white snow, mountain peaks, and pine forests, the surrounding scenery seems to be the same and vast.

Mu Hua and the four others found a direction to leave, and everyone traveling with them also dispersed one after another, looking for a direction to follow the traces of the exiles.

“Can these locusts be killed?” Mu Hua asked with a frown as he walked in the snow with one foot deep and one foot shallow. He declined some invitations to join a team. As they dispersed, there was no one else around the four of them.

Locusts are still locusts.

Occasionally, you can see some tracks of wild beasts in the snowy scene, but you haven’t encountered any monsters or exiles yet.

Mu Hua and others were always followed by a few locusts, either jumping to catch up, or flying to follow them. They would get away from some, but they would always meet again.

According to Mu Hua’s observation, the flying speed of these locusts was even comparable to that of his blind ravens, jumping and running like bullets. The actions of several people were observed by their compound eyes, and Mu Hua felt impatient.

“It’s best not to, and we can’t kill them all.” Tina shook her head and said.

“There are countless such locusts in the Court of Exile, and ghosts and gods control all movements in the entire courtyard through them.”

“Although they monitor our actions, if you are in danger, ghosts and gods will come to your rescue.” Barbara explained.

“Us? What about you?” Tabitha asked in confirmation after hearing something from Barbara’s words.

“You are banquet guests, and the Demon Clan will try not to let anything happen to you in Alan.”

“It is our coming-of-age ceremony to grant freedom to the exiled. If we encounter danger, well…it depends on the mood of the ghosts and gods.” Tina pondered the words and said in summary.

Obviously, this courtyard should be suppressed by the ghosts and gods they have never met on their own.

And ghosts and gods are not nannies. Contractors like Mu Hua are guests and may perform some maintenance.

But that ghost and god should also be quite willful. He will not interfere too much in the life and death of the experienced demon. There is no standard for whether to save or not, it all depends on his mood.

“That means that every move we make in the future will be exposed to the observation of ghosts and gods?” Mu Hua asked, looking at the locusts staying nearby.

“kindness.”

“Okay, hello, boss, thank you for your hard work, boss.” Mu Hua was helpless, then turned his face to say hello to Locust, and the three women rolled their eyes at the endearing words.

Facing Mu Hua’s greetings, Locust didn’t react at all and still lay blankly in the distance.

Mu Hua didn’t know the mechanism behind the ghost’s ability to use locusts for surveillance, but he probably had no interest in talking to him.

“Raven summoning.” Since the boss didn’t respond and the locusts couldn’t be shaken away, Mu Hua simply ignored the nearby locusts and raised his hand to summon the crows.

Black crows were hovering in the sky. When Barbara was surprised, Mu Hua launched the summoning of the dead again.

“Farke!” Barbara yelled.

As dozens of Terror Riders appeared, Barbara immediately stood in front of Tebitha.

Until it was confirmed that these Terror Riders were Mu Hua’s summoned beasts, Barbara still had a little vigilance in her eyes.

Following Mu Hua’s actions, the locusts near the people also reacted. As if frightened, the locusts spread their wings and made a slight buzz in the air.

“BOSS, isn’t this too ostentatious?” Tina asked cautiously after seeing Mu Hua summoning Monday again.

“Making Leviathan a corpse demon to guard the gate is called ostentation. Get on your horse. This courtyard is not small. We are in a hurry.”

Summoning the purgatory war horse, Mu Hua gave the three girls of Tebitha the blessing of courage, and pulled Tina to ride with him. Regardless of Barbara’s surprise, Mu Hua said to Tebitha.

Originally, Mu Hua might have felt that his summoned beast was a bit ostentatious, but the demon was both a Leviathan and a ghost.

The swarms of insects monitoring the entire courtyard made it impossible for Mu Hua to estimate how strong the other party’s mental power was.

The conflict between humans and monsters can easily reach the scale of a war. Mu Hua estimated that in the eyes of the other party, with his little wealth, he was no more than a commando team.

And in front of real monsters like ghosts and gods, there is nothing to hide.

Tebitha and Barbara each rode with a terror rider. Under the guidance of the raven, the purgatory horse broke through the snow waves and began to track the exiles in the wind and snow.

The dark cavalry was raging in the snow with the aura of death, and some nearby demons who noticed the movement were surprised and confused.

At this time, in a mage tower on the Exile Island, a man with a grimace mask on his face flashed a strange color in his eyes.

“General House, did the old lich also send someone to this night banquet?” With a magnetic voice, the man asked a strong old man below him.

There is no throne, no statue of majesty. In addition to some exquisite works of art, the modern villa-like hall also has many modern furniture and electrical appliances.

At the circular table, the masked man sat at the head. In addition to the old man in military uniform who was being questioned, there were also two mature women in Chinese clothes sitting around him.

“Your Highness, the seventh one did not send anyone. He said he would come years ago, but recently he canceled it. What’s the problem?” the old man replied respectfully.

“Oh? Not the seventh person? Haha, a very interesting little guy.” The masked man chuckled and waved, and a magic image like a projection screen appeared in front of several people.

Wind and snow, fire trails, iron cavalry, under the erosion of the dead air, the snow seems to be contaminated with dust.

The blinding of the raven caused a ferocious demon to roar like a beast. In the terrain he was familiar with, when the demon instinctively fled to a crypt, the Dread Rider’s chain hook scythe caught him.

The cavalry was dragged along violently and had no intention of stopping.

The long knife twisted the head, and when the head and neck of the demon with dark eyeballs were separated, the fire of the soul flashed, and the dead demon turned into dust and scattered in the blood and mud.

It is the scene of hunting when Mu Hua and his party are running around.

The old man and the other two women frowned slightly. One of the women took out a stack of papers and quickly rummaged through the information of the guests attending the banquet.

“Mu Hua, Tebitha, comes from the Sorcerer Empire. Huh? He’s not from the Brigade Alliance, nor is he a noble. He comes from an ordinary wealthy businessman family.”

“That boy is a professor at a lower-level magic academy. Is he related to the academy?” The woman introduced Mu Hua’s situation.

“Hey, you actually mastered the flicker? You are too young to be from the academy. The academy will not release such a little guy.” Looking at the scene in the projection, another woman shook her head and said.

“Forget about the blind raven, how could an ordinary wealthy businessman family get so many Headless Horseman summoned beasts for him?” the old man in military uniform asked.

“Looking for? Haha, the Pale Lord, such a young Pale Lord, I even suspect that he is the illegitimate son of the old lich.” The masked man chuckled and shook his head.

As soon as the man finished speaking, the other three looked at each other in surprise. The masked man closed his eyes in silence, but did not move away from the magical image to observe the movements of Mu Hua and the others.

The hall fell into silence. A woman quietly made tea for several people. When she looked at the situation in the projection again, her expression became more serious. (End of chapter)
