(First update of the day, sorry, I wrote too much yesterday and felt really uncomfortable! I just feel a bit better, so I got up to write this update for you! Please bear with me, this one is a bit late!)
Not long ago......
In the remote northern forest, the succubus queen's camp!
A pale figure suddenly darted out, directly rushing towards the succubus queen's camp!
At this moment, the camp exuded a sinister aura, and the demons patrolling around all avoided the succubus queen's residence, as if they were avoiding a flood or a ferocious beast!
Even the succubi seemed to find their queen increasingly inscrutable.
"Milady, I have failed, the mission..." A ghastly pale ghost face appeared in the room, and at this moment, the ghost face began to drip with a milky white liquid!
"Failed?" A blurry figure turned its back to the ghost face, and a hoarse, cold voice echoed!
"Yes... yes!" The ghostly face seemed to tremble, more of the white liquid dripping down and strangely disappearing into the void!
"Indeed, the defective product is still trash!" Slowly turning around, a stunning face emerged! It was none other than the succubus queen, Lusbeta Lilith.
However, she was a bit different now. The alluring and seductive aura was gone, replaced by a cold and chilling presence. The abyssal star on her forehead had vanished, replaced by a mysterious, pale pattern!
"Milady, that Bal is too strong. Although I was once a second-tier demon, but... but..." the ghostly figure stammered.
"Oh, so you've had dealings with him before!" The pale eyes stared intently at the ghost face, creating an eerie atmosphere.
"But, if you can't even defeat a second-tier demon, what use are you?" The seductive lips parted slightly, and the ghostly face floating in the air trembled, emitting a shrill scream before it turned into a beam of light and was swallowed by the succubus queen's mouth!
Crunch!
"The taste is mediocre. Is this the second-tier demon here? Truly trash!" She gently touched her lips, revealing a strange smile.
"A weak place is just right for me to slowly recover. And this place hides many interesting things!" She raised her head and looked towards the distant east, where the death volcano was now covered in endless snow.
"What a wondrous place!"
"Someone!" Suddenly, the cold, hoarse voice changed to a seductive tone, and soon, several second-tier demons entered!
"You few, go to the south and kill this little bug. Bring back his corpse. If you fail, you won't need to come back; commit suicide on the spot!"
She raised her hand, and an image appeared in the air, showing a full-body view of Erdong Sheng!
"Yes, Milady!"
Stretching lazily, she prepared to rest for a while. This was just a small interlude, a bit of entertainment to pass the time. The most important thing now was to quickly recover her strength!
"The cold winter should be over, and it's time to leave this place. The flesh and blood here are not enough for me to recover!"
"And the land of death, what a pleasant surprise..."
...
The heavy snow had stopped, and Erdong Sheng strolled through the forest, deep in thought. For some reason, he had been feeling uneasy lately, always with a sense of unease and fear.
It seemed something was watching him!
Was it a wraith... or...
He had come out for a walk to clear his mind and think about his future plans. After the cold winter, he planned to leave this forest and explore other places. However, this needed careful planning, and he would also need to consult with Lulu and Belle. As for Sibia and the fairies, they had no say; wherever Erdong Sheng went, they had to follow!
Of course, with a larger group, the migration would be a big problem, but at least there was a solution now! If the plan went smoothly, a large-scale long-distance migration should not be an issue.
Sometimes, it's nice to take a walk alone and think about the future, except for the cold.
What else needed consideration?
Hmm, food is also a concern, but with salt, food can be stored for a long time! This shouldn't be too worrying! Especially with the yam vines finally yielding results, everything seemed to be moving in a positive direction, except for...
Crack!
Stepping on a withered branch that had emerged from the thick snow, Erdong Sheng suddenly stopped, his eyes narrowing slightly.
He looked up at his surroundings! Suddenly, a sense of impending danger washed over him, making his hair stand on end!
"They're here!"
The surroundings were eerily quiet. The usual creatures had disappeared, and the forest was unusually barren. It was an unsettling silence!
After some thought, Erdong Sheng continued walking without showing any signs of alarm, heading in a direction far from his residence!
One minute, two minutes, three minutes... The intense sense of danger remained, but no attack came!
"Truly, they have good patience!"
He continued walking, gradually reaching a more open area. Erdong Sheng stood there.
"Come out, you've been following long enough!" He spoke in a casual tone, but his eyes carefully scanned the surroundings!
No one answered, and no one came out! But the sense of danger was getting closer!
"Where are they?"
He scanned all around, but found no trace! Yet, his intuition told him something was getting closer!
"Damn, what's going on?"
"There's nothing around, nothing above, so it must be... " He stomped his foot hard, shooting into the sky like a cannonball, instantly transforming into the Flame Demon God!
He casually threw a massive fireball at the ground!
The entire sequence of actions took only a few seconds!
Boom!
Snow and steam flew everywhere!
The heat from the fireball quickly melted the snow, revealing a large open area. Several black figures became visible! In the vast white landscape, these pitch-black, limbless figures stood out starkly!
"Indeed, something is here!"
Whoosh!
Erdong Sheng's body rapidly descended, quickly approaching one of the black figures that had just risen. His claws, like steel, firmly gripped the black figure's body!
However, the black clothing was slippery, almost slipping out of his grasp!
"Let me see what you, these creatures of the shadows, really are!" He said, and with one swift motion, he tore off the black coat of the attacker!
"What!"
Inside, it was completely empty!
