Darkness is a cross knight, and he can't run fast in heavy armor. But after Xiao Lin and others deliberately slowed down, she still successfully arrived at the lord's mansion first.
Then the eyes under the mask revealed a strange red light. With a wave of his hand, countless masked puppets emerged from the ground and began to wander around at his signal.
So that move is a group skill?
Xiao Lin, standing on a tree trunk in the distance, looked at the scene of Barnier constantly summoning masked puppets to blast the luxurious lord's mansion.
At this time, a figure appeared behind him, it was Liu Zi who had never appeared before.
"Master Xiaolin, that fat and incompetent lord is not in the lord's mansion now. It would be better to say that there is no one in the lord's mansion now."
"Really, that's really a pity."
The waiter's report made Xiao Lin feel pity. If that disgusting lord lived there, he could have been allowed to see Eris.
never mind.
Since he's not here, let's collect some interest first and give him some warmth.
Fires shot into the sky in the distance, explosions continued one after another, the luxurious lord's mansion was blasted one after another, and the whole house was bombed into a mess and crumbling.
The evil lord's mansion was blown up, which was really satisfying. At least everyone present, except for the ignorant Youyou, all had the same idea.
Sato Kazuma admired it for a while and couldn't help but ask: "Senior Kobayashi, are you just going to let him explode like this? What if the lord asks you to question him later? What if you ask for compensation for high debts again..."
Not only did he say this, but Megumin and Aqua also had very bad expressions. They had had enough of being forced to pay compensation one after another.
"What are you talking about, Sato-kun."
At this time, Xiaolin smiled and said something extremely sinister and cunning: "The bombing by the cadres of the Demon King's Army, what does it have to do with me, Darkness?"
"Uh...that makes sense!"
Sato Kazuma also showed the same sinister and cunning smile.
At this time, Megumin said worriedly: "Kobayashi, when are we going to save Darkness? The devil has taken over her body, and I am still worried about her."
As Darkness, who has the best relationship with Megumin besides Yunyun in the team, it is understandable for the little Lolita to be worried.
Aqua patted her chest and said, "Don't worry, Megumin! With me, the only high priest in the world, I can easily save Darkness at any time!"
But her confidence could not bring little Loli a sense of security, and Huihui still looked directly at Xiaolin.
Xiao Lin patted her little head, and when the little Loli retaliated unhappily, he said: "Barnier is preparing the stage now, and the performance without an audience is incomplete. As for when it will start, it depends on the Kingdom Prosecutor. When did Miss Senna notify everyone?"
A brave man fights against the Demon King's army cadres.
If there were no audience and the atmosphere couldn't be noisy, the play would be boring.
The little Loli was in a daze. She was still worried about the female knight on her team, and was afraid that something might happen to Darkness.
But Xiaolin really wanted to tell her:
——That perverted knight was not in pain, but actually enjoying it.
"Trust me, Megumin."
"……Um."
Patting her shoulder, he told Huihui not to worry, and at the same time, he used his eyes to signal Yunyun to comfort his good friend.
Care about other girls in front of your good friends?
What does this sound like?
After that, they enjoyed the fireworks for a while, until the entire lord's mansion was razed to the ground. The big warning bell finally rang, and the voice of Miss Luna, the guild employee, spread throughout the town.
"Emergency! Emergency! The Demon King's Army cadres are attacking! Repeat, the Demon King's Army cadres are attacking! All adventurers, please assemble! Repeat, the Demon King's Army cadres are attacking!..."
After hearing the announcement, Xiao Lin patted his butt.
"Let's go, it's our turn."
"Okay, let's go!"
Aqua was excited.
She can finally kill the devil with her own hands!
After all, according to Kobayashi's script, in the end, the cadre of the Demon King's Army and the Duke of Hell who leads the demons will have to be purified by her own hands.
Soon, the group arrived at the Lord's Mansion.
The luxurious mansion collapsed, and a plume of black smoke hovered in the sky. Under the firelight, even in the dark, there was still some ferocity. When you approached, it seemed like a bloody mouth was coming. The tongues of fire in the corner were mixed with wanton roars. There was a sound, and the hot breath hit my face, a scene of broken walls and ruins after being ravaged by fire.
Xiao Lin and others did not feel sad or angry, and even felt a little happy.
There was a commotion in the distance. By the light of the fire, one could see the anxious-looking Kingdom Prosecutor Senna, running from a distance with a large group of adventurers.
It looks like we can start.
Xiao Lin and Barnier communicated with their eyes and nodded tacitly.
Then--
"That's it! The leader of the Demon King's Army is also the Duke of Hell who leads the demons, and the clairvoyant demon Vanir who can foresee the future and see through people's hearts! I, Kobayashi, Axel's hero, once defeated the leader of the Demon King's Army Headless. Knight Beldia and those who intercepted the mobile Scourge Mobile Fortress Destroyer! Now, I and my companions will defeat you!"
This is the usual opening of a drama, where the names of both parties are introduced to each other.
Although it is a bit artificial, it is necessary in order to build a reputation. Otherwise, who knows who you are, and who are you trying to defeat?
The faces of the adventurers who came over changed.
"Demon King's Army cadre?"
"Devil? Clairvoyant Barnir?"
"The one with the super high bounty?"
Some people looked timid, while others were excited. Unexpectedly, Barnier's reputation was quite widespread.
Wait, this evil-minded Duke of Hell has probably already tried that trick that can taste the ultimate negative emotions, right?
Xiao Lin mourned deeply for the unknown unlucky man.
"Wait, isn't that Darkness?"
Suddenly, someone recognized the female knight present.
"What?"
"Really, it's really Darkness!"
"what happened?"
After all, the pure white armor is too conspicuous, and he often behaves strangely, so it would be strange if he was not recognized.
"Don't mess up! Sir Dustinis is being controlled, and the person controlling her is the cadre of the Demon King's Army in her body! And that black and white mask is the enemy's true form!"
Senna, the kingdom prosecutor who led the adventurers, suddenly shouted to stop their random thoughts.
"That's right..."
"No wonder."
"I see."
The adventurers suddenly realized.
At this time, Barnier spoke very cooperatively: "Huhahahaha, ahhahahahaha... I am the great devil Barnier, do you want to attack me? Just for you, it is simply wishful thinking!"
It attracts hatred as soon as it comes up.
I have to say that he is qualified to play the villain. Many adventurers were ridiculed, and their expressions suddenly changed.
Barnier didn't care what they thought, but clenched his fists and moved his wrists, as if feeling his body and said: "Well, it seems that I am used to this body. In that case, you're welcome." There’s a big fuss!”
After saying that, he squatted down and dodged the dagger coming from the side.
"Sneak attack? What a despicable method. We are obviously the devils."
"Tsk."
The adventurer who failed in the sneak attack smacked his tongue loudly, and then quickly retreated into the crowd.
He looks like a thief.
If you look closely, you will see that other adventurers have also joined the battle at some point. Without any preamble, the enraged adventurers swarmed forward. They formed a tacit understanding and continuously attacked Darkness.
Hey, you guys, be careful! If you hurt my Darkness, all of you will die!
However--
Darkness... no, to be precise, under the superb control of Barnier, the usually slow and clumsy Darkness' body was completely unaffected by the heavy armor, and he used quick movements to dodge the incoming attacks one by one. Pass or block.
He looked so at ease, not like a weird cross knight whose attacks couldn't hit him at all.
"Damn it! That Darkness is so difficult to deal with...!"
"It missed! She blocked it with her sword, and the attack was deflected! Her slash was very heavy, and her sword was frighteningly fast! The reason why we are still alive is only because the other party was merciful...! "
"how so!"
"Impossible, absolutely impossible!"
The adventurers who were hit cried out in agony and were defeated one after another. They didn't believe that they could not defeat Darkness, and they were under siege.
Barnier laughed and said: "Huhahahahaha! This body is in pretty good condition! It has great strength and good durability! In addition, it is resistant to the hateful magic of the gods, which makes it even more outstanding!"
Unexpectedly, Darkness' physical performance was so high, and several people in the team were also surprised.
Sato Kazuma came over and asked in a low voice: "Senior Kobayashi, what should we do now?"
"Wait a minute, there's still a fight scene."
Xiao Lin told him not to worry.
In order to highlight the strength of Kobayashi who will appear later, the strength of Darkness controlled by Barnier must now be fully demonstrated.
Barnier continued to challenge: "Huhahahahaha! What's wrong with you, these soft-footed shrimp adventurers? Come on! Just let your horses come over!"
This sentence made the expressions of the adventurers surrounding him become more and more sinister, but just to incite hatred, he still said it in Darkness's voice.
This made the adventurers even more angry.
"Darkness, this guy, only gets arrogant when he hits a few people with his attacks..."
"I thought you were the only normal person in the team with Xiaolin, but I didn't expect it to be like this!"
"Surround her! Surround her!"
Obviously everyone knows that the person who controls Darkness is the Demon King's army cadre Barnier, but now for some reason everyone's curse has shifted to Darkness, and the hatred level is getting higher and higher.
Is this what is called lying down?
Also, what does it mean that only Darkness is a normal person? Am I, Xiaolin, not a normal person?
He completely forgot about walking calmly on the street covered in mucus.
"Huhahahahaha!" Barnier continued to provoke: "No matter how many minions come, it's still the same, I will still beat you all down!"
The battle continues to rage.
Darkness' body far surpasses other adventurers in terms of strength and durability.
With Barnier's long-term combat experience and dexterity, the female knight waved the long sword in both hands with ease and began to destroy the adventurers' weapons one by one.
The Cross Knight, who was originally a bastard, was now able to suppress a team of more than ten adventurers.
"I always feel that... Darkness's performance was a bit dazzling today."
Sato Kazuma was a little jealous for no reason.
If Barnier controlled his body, would he be the one suppressing everyone in the field now?
He will inevitably have fantasies that he shouldn't have.
The kingdom prosecutor Senna, who was helpless on the side, said anxiously: "Stop saying those words carelessly, Xiaolin, think of a solution quickly! ... It's not good!"
Finally, one adventurer couldn't withstand Barnier's fierce attack and was swept by the great sword, and the battle line began to collapse.
Hearing the familiar request, Xiaolin knew it was his turn to play.
Barnier smiled and said, "Oh? I've been watching the show for so long, and now it's finally time to play?"
"There is no way, someone will stop you. And... I still want to save my companions!"
"Hahahaha! Then come and grab it! You couldn't be happier to die at the hands of your own companions!"
"Humph, you will be the one who dies!"
Xiao Lin rushed forward.
Then the two collided, and the violent air flow produced blew the person lying on the ground several meters away.
I didn't expect it to be such a fierce battle. It was completely different from the group of adventurers who were surrounded and repelled just now. It was already on another level.
"No way, you're actually so strong?"
"Hey, is he really Xiao Lin? I remember his profession is Grand Mage?"
"You told me this is the Great Mage?!"
Under everyone's stunned gaze, the battle in the field gradually escalated.
Probably because of his heavy armor and holding a two-handed sword, Darkness is still not as good as Krillin in terms of dexterity.
Even if the demon has rich combat experience, the brave man can use his [eyes] to close the gap.
"Well, it's a bit in the way."
Vanir gave up his weapon, but that didn't mean he gave up his fangs, but it did completely free Darkness' body to its limits.
The female knight with unparalleled strength has gained the upper hand in battles one after another.
Barnier speeded up and shouted at the same time: "Huhahahahaha! What's wrong, is this all you can do? Come on, let us have more fun!"
Have fun with the hammer!
Xiao Lin approached him and whispered very fast: "Hey, you must have forgotten our deal, right? Hurry up and pretend to be beaten down by me!"
What they trade is simple.
At the beginning, Barnier came on the stage and defeated all the adventurers. In a helpless situation, Kobayashi came on the stage and successfully defeated the Demon King's army cadres with ease.
It not only highlights the importance of Xiaolin, but also shows his strong strength. It is a good plan that kills two birds with one stone. But now it seems that Barnier is a little excited.
As the fist became heavier and heavier, Xiao Lin became angry. With a flip of her wrist, the silk thread tied the female knight so tightly that she couldn't move.
Take advantage of now!
"Aqua, it's your turn!"
"Coming!"
As Kobayashi shouted, Aqua ran over with a devilish smile on her face that was unbecoming of a goddess. She looked eager to try as she was surging with strong divine power.
"Holy Purification!"
That's it! ...is impossible.
When Aqua assumed a goddess posture, her whole body glowing with light, and her skills shot out from the tip of her staff, Darkness suddenly leaned back to avoid the blow.
"Wait, Darkness, don't move!"
The stupid goddess was a little angry. She finally ended up showing off her skills as a goddess, but Barnier didn't let her get what she wanted.
He even held Xiao Lin under him.
——If Xiaolin hadn't stepped in front in time, Aqua would have been pinned underneath.
With a female knight in heavy armor on her, instead of enjoying it, it became difficult to breathe.
Barnier's eyes glowed strangely red, and countless masked puppets appeared on the ground again and began to swarm towards them.
Other adventurers took up arms to resist.
Xiao Lin couldn't help but ask: "Hey, Barnier, do you want to break the contract? If this continues, I will do such and such things to Wiz!"
The threatening words reached the ears of the Duke of Hell, and he really couldn't figure out who was the devil.
Barnier also lowered his head and said: "I am a demon and an existence hostile to the gods. I don't want to be purified at all. I will never be punished by my old enemy in that way. Any other method will do! "
This guy is surprisingly stubborn.
Right.
After all, they are a demon and a goddess who dislike each other. If they could be purified by Aqua so easily, Barnier would definitely not be able to accept it.
At this time, the two seemed to be struggling in the eyes of outsiders, with Barnier making his final struggle. However, the strength of the Demon King's army cadres cannot be underestimated, and they still have ways to fight back, which also surprised the adventurers on the side.
"In that case, let's find another way!"
Xiao Lin said, then the rabbit kicked the eagle with his two feet, and kicked the female knight into the sky with gentle force.
then--
"boom!"
The right fist condensed terrifying magic power, and on the way Darkness fell, it rushed into the sky with an unstoppable force, turning into a huge beam of light that illuminated the entire Axel.
By the way, it’s just a fake.
Completely non-lethal.
Darkness, whose body was steaming, fell from the sky together with the black and white mask that fell off. After Kobayashi caught her, the battle against the Demon King's army leaders came to an end.
The adventurers cheered loudly all around.
Xiaolin hugged the unconscious female knight and looked around the burned lord's mansion. He didn't know if the lord felt the warmth he sent.
