Chapter 586 Odelia

“Herb Picker?”

The NPC officer looked at me and coldly laughed, “A Ba Huang City adventurer coming to the Hybrid Demon Territory to pick herbs? Do you think I’m stupid? You must be a spy! Otherwise, provide proof!”

I fished out my alchemy job certificate and said, “This, is this enough proof?”

“Alchemy proof, anybody can get that!”

“Is that so?”

I smiled and pulled out the Dragon Reservoir Sword on my back. “Keng!” the sound of Saint Tier long sword being unsheathed was impressive. It was even enough to make that NPC hesitate. I then took out my bag and grabbed 1000G of gold. I waved the bag in front of him and then threw it to him, saying, “I heard that there was a strange type of flower in the Hybrid Demon Territory that can be used to create miracle pills. And so, I definitely cannot miss a chance like this….”

“Wah….”

The NPC officer weighed the bag of gold in his hand and then smiled, “Seeing as you’re just an herb picker, then there’s not much else I have to say. Here is a Safe Passage pass for anywhere within the Revered One’s territorial bounds. I hope that you find that precious herb from the Hybrid Demon Territory, or some kind of thousand year old bones. Ha ha…”

I received a black metal pass and gave a quick nod. I pulled on my horse’s reins and led it into the city.

Behind me, the NPCs began to talk. After those greedy humans had been demonized, they seemed to have increased their appetite for gold. No wonder it was so easy to sneak in——

“Congratulations my lord. With just one person, you got 1000G!”

“That’s right. Youngsters, I’m going to Ba Huang City soon to marry a new wife. That way… I will never be alone on those cold nights… hahaha!”

“But my lord, after we drank the Demon Soup, we’ve lost the ability to reproduce. It’s already the seventh day I woke up this morning without any wood…”

“D*mm*t, how could I have forgotten about that!”

……

I put the hood back over my head and covered my face. I then took my Ancient Heavenly Tiger and Flying Scythe War Horse and strode into the city. There were humans and Hybrid Demons scattered everywhere. I never would have imagined that it was possible for humans to do business with the Hybrid Demons, and even converse! There were even a few humans who were selling other humans. They had a line of young female moon elves tied together on a rope. The world that this game created was just too savage!

I quietly walked forward and made sure to stay low. Finally, I reached the northern gate of the city. In the distance, another gate officer walked over and roared, “Traveler, hand over your Safe Passage Pass, or else you will be put to death!”

I fished out the pass from my pocket and said, “Is this it?”

“Yes. Hand it to me and then I’ll let you pass!”

I handed the pass over to the officer and then urged my warhorse forward, galloping out of the city gates. In that split second that I dashed away, one of the soldier roared, “Do not let him go. I recognize that b*st*rd. He was one of the adventurer’s at Dragon City that helped Frost! I heard that.. That he was Frost’s student! He’s really strong. If he’s here, that means he wants to take revenge for Frost!”

“What!?”

The officer was furious, “Men, chase after him and kill him! Send for the troops and prepare for pursuit! We must kill him and take his head! If we do, then we’ll be rich from the rewards!”

I pulled out both swords and angrily slashed the two soldiers in front of me. A combo attack exploded and I shouted, “You traitors of the human race, die!”

My Ancient Heavenly Tiger also joined in the fray. My Dragon Reservoir Sword and Zhen Yue Sword each cut off a guard’s head. However, the officer behind me had already brought another crowd of soldiers charging over. They were all Thunder Tier monsters and had around 50-80,000 health. The gate officer was a demi BOSS and had around a million health. He wasn’t much stronger than a Level 5 Hybrid Demon.

I took the chance to charge out. As I was on the warhorse I immediately spun around in my seat and raised my hand, casting [Great Realm of Desolation] onto the gate officer. The skill blasted right through him, causing him to raise his sword and charge at me.

I sent a command and my Ancient Heavenly Tiger used [Burstfire Raid] into the crowd of NPCs while I focused on the attacks of the gate officer. I retreated as I fought. After I retreated around a hundred meters, I had finally whittled the gate officer’s health down to critical. His expression grew flustered, “D*mm*t, this b*st*rd is really strong. I’m not his equal! Retreat, we must have the Hybrid Demons in the city come and pressure him!”

I smiled coldly, “You want to leave?”

I raised my left arm, activating [Dragon’s Hook]. “Shua!” It pierced through the gate officer’s body as he ran. I then activated it to retract, bringing him right to me. With a slash of my Dragon Reservoir and Zhen Yue Swords, “Ka Cha!” his head flew off. I then grabbed it and raised it in front of the soldiers, “Tell Luo Lin, that one day I will be back for his head for Frost!”

I then hung the head on my war horse’s neck and urged it forward. Behind me, the gate opened up and a group of Imperial Army Cavalrymen thundered out. The knight at the front waved his spear and shouted, “Charge! Cut him to pieces. We cannot let that b*st*rd go. Otherwise, if King Luo Lin finds out, then we’ll all die!”

I laughed and commanded my Flying Scythe Horse to gallop forward at full speed. Each second took one point of stamina, but that was of no consequence at the moment.

The Flying Scythe Horse’ movement speed was incredibly fast. After all, it was a Divine Tier BOSS mount. Very soon, we lost the NPC cavalrymen. A little further in front of us was the wilderness. Once I entered into the forest, I immediately activated [Camouflage]. The cavalrymen followed me in, and began to scout the area for a long time. One of the officers shouted, “Split up! We must continue the search. No matter what, we have to find that b*st*rd and cut him to pieces!”

……

I ignored those Revered One’s cavalrymen’s pursuit and continued heading north. The first step of my plan was complete. I had managed to pass through Luo Lin’s territory and go around the Bloody Plains. Yup, if I continue North for another hour, then I’ll head west. After than, I’ll end up in the legendary Hybrid Demon Territory’s Seven Great Maps.

“Ji ji….”

A black figure suddenly flashed across the sky. The grass waved slightly, as though noticing something. The thing suddenly dove downwards. But I had already seen the monster coming. It was a Plunderer, a Level 3 Hybrid Demon. It was a demon that had wings and thirsted for blood!
