Southeast of Oga Kingdom.
Large green plains spread in all directions, and at the junction of adjacent swamps, the grass gradually disappeared.
There are no trails on the plain, and it is endless.
Xia Ya was looking at the map while moving forward.
Next to him are the chameleon girl Elze who just joined the job yesterday, and the pink minotaur and slime leader Jelly.
After breaking out a tauren stronghold a few days ago, today I want to keep up the progress and continue to explore new maps to find the tauren headquarters.
The purple-haired girl kept leaning next to Xia Mi, always feeling like a pair of hostile eyes were looking at her.
"Xia Mi, I always feel like that pink minotaur is looking at me fiercely."
The purple-haired girl pulled Xia Mi's sleeve.
"Ah, you feel right. Pink Cow is a pure lover, so she is dissatisfied with you."
"What does the two have to do with each other! And it's none of my business! I'm just joining the company!"
The purple-haired girl looked behind her in confusion.
The giant blue slime was okay, it seemed to have a gentle gaze.
But with the pink minotaur, you can feel its dissatisfaction from a distance!
The slime leader, Jelly, was bouncing forward with several butterflies flying above his head, and he also started playing with the butterflies.
It seems that he has become accustomed to the appearance of a new girl next to Xia Mi. This giant slime does not pay attention to the appearance of the purple-haired girl at all.
Instead, when the purple-haired girl looked over, she responded with a cute expression.
"Hey, Jelly-chan, that purple hair seems to be tugging at Saya-sama's sleeve, tsk, what a clumsy little girl trying to do to close the distance."
"I have long thought that she has evil intentions towards Sir Xia Mi. Although Sir Xia Mi said nothing happened, the two of them stayed in the dark room for so long yesterday, so they must have done it!"
The pink minotaur looked sadly at the slime beside him, wanting to seek comfort, but his eyes slowly widened.
"What?! You actually think they just have an ordinary superior-subordinate relationship?! And regardless of Miss Lulea and the others, this pair is pretty easy to eat now?! No way, jelly, eating anything will only harm you jelly Sauce!!"
The pink minotaur doesn't understand the slime's thoughts.
"It's so pitiful to think about Miss Lulea crying with a cuckold on her head!"
"What?! Appropriate competition is the only way to watch a show. In ordinary competition, Miss Lulea is always sneaking away?! How can a slime say such a thing!"
“Anyway, the Pure Love Party cannot accept this kind of thinking.
--What? If the other three ladies continued to knock them hard when they were around, would it be a good idea to use the purple-haired girl as a meal replacement now? ! What a joke! ! I'm not the kind of half-hearted tauren! "
Xia Mi walked halfway and suddenly stopped and looked at the purple-haired girl beside him.
The purple-haired girl took a step back, hunched her shoulders slightly, and looked at Xia Mi with slight fear.
She is the same height as a magical girl, slightly taller than the flat golden retriever and the big-breasted white retriever. All four girls are tall.
Not only in terms of height, but also in terms of temperament, Xia Mi also had a rough ranking in his mind.
Lulea<Saili<Lina≤Elze
A+<B<D≤D+
The purple-haired and black-skinned breasts in front of her were on the same level as the white-haired girl, even slightly larger.
However, she is clearly a dragon girl, but she has neither horns nor a tail, which is a big mistake.
"Why did you suddenly sigh in disappointment?"
The purple-haired girl sniffed herself in confusion, but there was no foul smell.
"I just feel that a dragon girl without a tail or horns is like a pretty elf girl without breasts."
"What a strange metaphor this is! I feel like it's an insinuation of the blond elf in your team!"
"Let's not talk about this anymore. Give me your hand first."
Xia Mi stretched out his right hand.
The purple-haired girl was stunned for a moment, grabbing her left wrist with her right hand and shaking her head repeatedly, her wheat-colored skin gradually turning red with embarrassment.
Although he has always been a personal dragon, he has learned a lot about the internal affairs of the guild during his usual stealing activities, and he also reads relevant books in his spare time to supplement his knowledge to avoid failure in disguise.
"Wait...are you going to unspoken rules?"
"what are you thinking about."
Xia Mi pulled the purple-haired girl over and held her left wrist.
[Name; Elze]
[Race: Dragon Clan]
【Loyalty: 30】
Xia Mi looked at Elze with slight surprise.
Um?
Unexpectedly, the loyalty is as good as that of a flat golden retriever?
I don't know whether to praise the purple-haired girl for her good consciousness or to pout this idiot with a flat golden retriever.
"Well, if you want to date, I can consider it, but I need your guarantee that you must respect my dragon rights!"
The dragon girl became nervous when she remembered that the demon king's xp was a foreign queen.
Although she has never thought about becoming the Demon Queen, if the Demon King insists on pursuing her, she has no room to refuse.
"But you can't force it. It still depends on whether we are suitable...if it's not suitable, you can't force it..."
The purple-haired girl has little experience in love. Although she has lived for 19 years, she has been busy looking for gold coins everywhere and has little experience in relationships.
"So...if you can...it would be better to develop slowly..."
The purple-haired girl's cheeks were slightly red as she spoke. She looked behind her and saw that the pink minotaur had hearts in its eyes and breath in its nostrils.
"It's surprisingly sweet! Meal replacement?——Miss Lulea, Miss Lina, Miss Saili, the main meal when Miss Saili is away!"
The purple-haired girl quickly struggled to open Xia Mi's hand and put her legs together in fear.
Why did that pink cow suddenly lose its hostility and its eyes became gentle?
Xia Mi just wanted to see the purple-haired girl's loyalty so that he could arrange the next mission.
Although the loyalty level was only 30, there was a precedent for a flat golden retriever, so he didn't find it strange at all.
Anyway, the three magic envoys are now in pretty good condition, and their loyalty is slowly increasing. He has plenty of time to devote to the dragon girl and slowly train the dragon girl.
"Sorry, we have a normal superior-subordinate relationship, and we do not advocate office romance."
"Then don't hold my hand suddenly!"
The dragon girl was stunned for a moment and looked at Xia Mi with shame and anger.
"But it can be understood as a means of communicating information."
Xia Mi changed the topic. They had arrived behind a small hill. Looking ahead from here, they could see a gathering point of tauren.
There are houses where the Tauren live in this Tauren gathering point, and there are also special defensive fences outside, indicating that it is the daily life of the Tauren tribe.
The tribe is medium in size, with about a hundred tauren in it.
Xia Mi pulled the dragon girl to his side.
"Can you sneak in?"
The purple-haired girl looked around and nodded.
"As for the Minotaur tribe, you can easily sneak in by using your ability to blend into the surrounding environment."
"What if you change into the identity of one of them, a tauren?"
"This is also possible. However, I need to have a tauren by my side. It will take about half a day to study their appearance thoroughly before the transformation can be successful."
"I understand. I'll help you catch one now."
"Eh?"
Xia Mi stood up.
Since the Tauren tribe who defected with Bitriel appeared here, there is a high probability that Bitriel is nearby. He needs one person to penetrate into the Tauren tribe to obtain more information.
"Jelly, summon your slime army and prepare to overwhelm the other side."
Xia Mi waved his hand, and a four-meter-wide horizontal portal appeared behind him.
"Elze, take a good look at our strength. Joining us will not be a wrong decision."
The breeze blew through Xia Mi, and the sun bathed his body. His black hair refracted light like obsidian in the sun. As a dragon, the purple-haired girl felt a slight sense of domineering.
"It's useless to say this. I was attracted by your salary and benefits!"
The portal opens, connecting the Slime's base camp - Maple Grove Glades.
The slime leader Jelly stood at the front, the ground trembled, and a neat phalanx of slimes came out of the portal.
Yes, this is the slime army that Xia Mi created in the clearing of Maple Forest that day when he accompanied Luleia to do a spiritual power test.
Although the number is small, this 10×5 square array of 50 slimes, all of which are above level 30 and have been mutated, represents the highest regular combat power of slimes.
"Come on, slimes, let the minotaurs feel the power of slimes!"
The slime army began to attack the tauren tribe.
The sentinels of the Tauren tribe reacted quickly, and the Tauren tribe entered a state of alert. After a brief period of confusion, the Tauren took up arms and began to resist.
"In terms of numbers, it's more than 100 versus 50. The advantage lies with the other side, Xia Mi."
The purple-haired girl watched the slimes charging into formation, swallowed her saliva, and became nervous.
Xia Mi folded his arms, his face full of confidence.
"Elze, just watch, the fun is just about to begin."
The purple-haired girl quickly looked forward.
Xia Mi gave the order.
"Slimes, use Desert Storm!"
The rustling slimes in the first row jumped into the air, opened their mouths, and sprayed sand and dust into the entire tauren tribe.
"Is there such a thing as slime?"
The purple-haired girl was shocked.
Of course, there are currently seven or eight directions in which slimes can be transformed. Although they are the weakest ordinary monsters, they can also become powerful combatants as long as they are used skillfully.
The swirling and flying sand formed a dust storm, making the tauren temporarily disoriented.
"Slimes, use the two realms of ice and fire!"
Xia Mi gave another order, and the frost slimes in the second row and the fire slimes in the third row stood staggered in a row, spitting out small fireballs and small ice cones from their mouths.
Small fireballs and small ice picks flew into the dust, and for a while, the screams of the minotaurs could be heard.
"It's not over yet. Slimes, use Crystal Love!"
Xia Mi issued orders three times.
The alienated crystal slimes in the fourth row hardened the outer skin, and then used the slime's most primitive collision attack to enter the dust that glowed red and blue.
The screams of the minotaurs became even more tragic.
"The climax is coming! The venom slimes began to spray thick paralyzing venom, causing the minotaurs to fall into a state of convulsion!"
The purple-haired girl's slender neck rolled up and down.
More than 100 tauren faced 50 slimes, but they had no power to resist at all.
Is this the regular slime army?
"So strong..."
"No! Natsumi-sama! Why does it sound so obscene! Is it really a regular move?"
The pink minotaur looked at Xia Mi with an uneasy expression.
"Miss Elze looks serious! Didn't you notice something was wrong?!"
——
On a hilltop in the southeast of the Oga Kingdom, the Tauren chief Tori was discussing matters with the elders of the Tauren tribe.
Tori is the strongest tauren in the entire tauren tribe. He is nearly five meters tall, and his rough body is covered with scars. These are the honors brought to him by battle.
The two sharp horns are full of power and seem to be able to smash anything in front of him.
Every time the air is exhaled from the thick nostrils, it is like a small wind with a fishy smell.
Today, Tori is listening to the speech of the tauren tribe elder who is more than three meters tall next to him.
"Sir Tori, Bitriel is still too suspicious. He has been guarding our Tauren tribe and is unwilling to hand over important positions to people of our race."
Tori said nothing.
"Didn't Bitril propose that we send the tauren from the tribe to various villages to try to seduce the new demon king?"
The tauren elder looked solemn and opened his mouth.
"This is clearly an attempt to disperse the power of our tribe, Chief Tori! Among the four tribes currently loyal to Bitril, our Tauren tribe is the most powerful."
Tori looked forward thoughtfully. The sunlight pulled his body into a broad figure behind him, and his face showed the regretful expression of a loyal man who cannot be reused.
"I know. I remember when we betrayed Luwaka and came to Bitriel, Bitriel kept saying that he would let the Tauren tribe establish a kingdom."
"After defecting to Bitril's side, Bitril has never mentioned this matter. He never trusts our tauren clan."
The tauren elder also sighed.
"Who made the outside world have a deep-rooted impression of our Tauren race? The outside world thinks that our Tauren race is a greedy wife, likes to steal other people's love things, and easily betrays other people's race."
"Indeed. Stereotypes kill tauren. We tauren have always been a single-minded race."
Tori exhaled an angry breath through her thick nose. As the Tauren chief, he possesses the purest Tauren blood.
"Then what do we do, Chief Tori."
The tauren elder looked at Tori.
Tori's eyes as big as copper bells looked straight at the tauren tribe in front of him, where his people lived.
"Let's just beat Bitril."
"Since Bitriel has been unwilling to believe us, it will not be beneficial to both parties if this continues. If he does not improve our treatment, we will poach other races and join the human race together."
The tauren elders stamped their hooves on the ground in agreement.
"The chief's plan is very clever. But what if the human race does not accept us? After all, we are demons, and we have caused a lot of grievances with the human race."
Tori was lost in thought.
"Then let's defeat the human race by then. Snatch away the married women from the human race, and then go to the dragon race."
"If we join the Dragon Clan, the Dragon Clan may not like us."
Tori was lost in thought.
"Then let's defeat the Dragon Clan, steal all the Dragon Clan's treasures, and then..."
The two tauren were having a heated discussion when a tauren sentry ran over panting.
"Chief! Elder! Something bad has happened. The tribe in the east has been attacked by enemies! It's the pink tauren and giant slime I told you last time."
"What?!"
