The Unemployed Demon Lord

"Since you are so persistent and want to continue this task, there is no other way." Da Vinci suddenly changed the subject, which turned the whole matter around.

"Mo...Miss Da Vinci can do anything?!" Merlin suddenly raised his head, feeling that this unattractive girl like Da Vinci is full of miracles!

"There is still a way, but I can't promise you that my way will definitely let you find the legendary Dracula, but it is still feasible to try." Da Vinci said ambiguously, seemingly not very sure about his own idea. confidence.

"Miss Da Vinci doesn't need to have any psychological burden. If it is possible to find Dracula, we are willing to try." Alice said impatiently.

"Then let me tell you something." Da Vinci paused, and said seriously, "This book of 8 records the catastrophe suffered by ancient France a hundred years ago, in which various vampires interspersed, almost all of which happened in the French Empire. So I thought...you should go to France to have a look, and if you investigate carefully, you may find new clues.

Merlin and Alice glanced at each other, and they both saw doubts in each other's eyes. They both had doubts about this suggestion.

There is no other reason. In a place as big as France, finding clues to Dracula is like finding a needle in a haystack. The difficulty is not ordinary.

In a foreign country where they don't know the situation at all, Merlin and Alice may be lost, and they don't know where to start.

"Miss Da Vinci, isn't this approach a little unrealistic? France is also a country at the forefront of the human empire. We need to find clues there without any prompts. The scope is too large." Alice To be honest, this suggestion is not very suitable for the situation of the two.

"Although it is very difficult, it is indeed worth trying. The vitality of the legendary blood race is extremely tenacious. Due to the unparalleled self-healing ability, the lifespan is infinitely close to eternal life. A mere few hundred years may be just a moment for them. If those legends are true, I believe that the blood race did not leave the land of France, but lived in the shadows in a small number, waiting for Dracula's awakening, so it is right for you to go to France." Da Vinci has reason and evidence said.

"However, the scope of the investigation is large, and our energy is limited." Merlin emphasized.

"Actually, the scope can be narrowed down. You must know that many legends have real reflections. If you carefully scrutinize them, you can discover terrifying secrets." Da Vinci paused, using the teaching method The tone said, "There is a very traditional funeral method in France. The family of the deceased will pierce silver nails into the heart of the deceased to prevent the deceased from becoming a vampire and harming others. This is the earliest record of dealing with vampires. However, the origin of this funeral tradition is In the Glen Plain in France, they still maintain this tradition until today. I think you will gain something when you get there.

After listening to Da Vinci's words, Merlin and Alice looked at each other and discussed secretly: "Go to France?"

"We don't seem to have any other choice."

Chapter 22: The Real Strong

The next day.

Alice is busy preparing her luggage at home, and will leave for the strange country of France tomorrow.

The two don't have any good choices now, they can only listen to Da Vinci's suggestion first, and go to the Glen Plain in France to see.

This is the first time for the two to go to a relatively distant foreign country to perform a mission, so they have little experience in many things.

Fortunately, Alice went to ask Mr. Carl what to pay attention to when traveling, and made a series of plans to ensure that this trip would not cause inexplicable troubles.

Mr. Carl has a great reputation. He often leaves Britain to carry out missions. He has a lot of experience. He was surprised to hear that Alice and Merlin were going to France.

As a senior, Mr. Carl didn't ask any further questions, but specifically explained some important things to prevent Merlin and Alice from committing crimes. He also told him not to trust anyone easily outside, and to be cautious even when interacting with adventurers. One point, have your own opinions and don't trust others easily.

There is also a reason why Mr. Carl is so careful. After all, people are unpredictable and cannot be completely believed.

On the outside, people who are not from their own country, many local residents will cheat, hoping to get some favors from foreigners.

As for fellow adventurers, there is even a precedent of killing and snatching for the bounty of the other party, which is very unsafe.

Therefore, among fellow adventurers, they will not ask each other what their tasks are, which seems extremely impolite, and if it is serious, the other party will think that you are harboring evil intentions.

Although Mr. Carl's exhortation is a bit clichéd, it is still very important to Merlin and Alice. After all, it is the first time to go to a foreign country to do business.

Alice was busy preparing things big and small at home, while Merlin had nothing to do and left everything to Alice, but he came to chat with Hobbs: "Hobbs, what a coincidence yesterday, what a coincidence! I thought I met you in the secret cabin~" Merlin said happily, and subconsciously stretched out his hand to Hobbs' wine glass, wanting a white ticket.

"Isn't it? The world is really small." Hobbs smiled, and pulled the wine glass to himself, not letting Merlin touch Merlin at all, feeling uncomfortable, feeling that Hobbs was guarding himself, "Tsk Why are you holding back like that? Let me take a sip and you won’t say, “Don’t, don’t, brother Merlin is a high-ranking person, and he won’t be with people like me, I understand. said Hobbs meaningfully.

"Wasn't yesterday a special situation? If it wasn't for Alice being present, how could I say that kind of thing." Merlin paused, then continued in embarrassment, "Actually, Alice knows that it's useless for me to pour dirty water on you." of.

"Oh~, it means that the dirty water was splashed in vain, and I was shot in vain?" Hobbs frowned, feeling that it was not enough for Merlin to sell his teammates at a critical moment. Although he had the habit of selling his teammates, Merlin When blue comes from blue, it is better than blue.

"It's not a shot in vain. You were here yesterday, otherwise I wouldn't be able to find the steps. I will keep this kindness in my heart." Merlin pretended to be very loyal. If there is a second time, he must be decisive. Keep selling Hobbs. bt "Forget about you, Merlin, I see you through, you are full of brotherhood, you stumble when you meet a woman, you are of the opposite sex and inhuman." Hobbs said full of resentment .

"... Merlin blushed, spread his hands and said helplessly, "I can't do anything about it. You saw it yesterday, and Alice suddenly came over, looking aggressive and about to kill someone. I won't do that. What should I do if I make a fuss?It's not easy for me, you should understand me, if you are caught by your wife in the future, how about I volunteer to help you take the blame? "

"That's what you said, I didn't force you?" Hobbs relaxed his attitude, thinking that this was pretty much the same, and he couldn't be humiliated in vain.

"I'll never go back on what I said." Merlin smiled and brought Hobbs' wine glass over, this time there was no hindrance.

"Really." Hobbs folded his arms and said with a frown, "You bastard, I was almost confused yesterday. You obviously didn't take you to the secret hut, but you said I kidnapped you. Did you Seeing Alice's eyes, I can't wait to tear me apart.

"No, although Alice has a big temper, she is not completely unreasonable." Merlin comforted Hobbs.

"Yesterday, it was like a mouse meeting a cat, but now it's helping Alice to say good things. It seems that something good happened last night?" Hobbs' expression became wretched, full of deep meaning.

"What are you thinking about? Nothing." Merlin explained.

"But having said that, did you really get involved with Miss Helena?" Hobbs asked curiously, caring a lot about such things. "No, we are friends. We were just chatting yesterday." Merlin was annoyed The answer is that I have a lot of opinions on the word "engagement" in Hobbes' mouth.

"Stop pretending, I've never seen Miss Helena willing to be alone with anyone, you are the first one." Hobbs looked around and looked around for no one, approached Merlin and asked in a low voice, "Honestly, are you What kind of conspiracy did you use to make Miss Helena fall in love with you? We are all friends now~"

Merlin pushed Hobbs away.Da Yi said sternly, "Vulgar! Dirty! In your eyes, don't men and women have pure friendship?

"Not really." Hobbs said seriously.

Such a realistic answer made Merlin speechless for a while, and he didn't want to chat with Hobbs immediately, the three views were quite different.

But at this moment, Mr. Carl came over and interrupted their whispering.

"Merlin, I heard from Alice that you are leaving for France tomorrow?" Mr. Carl pulled out a chair and sat down at Merlin's table.

"Eh? Merlin, you guys are going to France? What are you doing?" Hobbs was surprised, he didn't know about it yet.

"There is a task that is troublesome, and Alice and I need to go there." Merlin explained briefly.

"I forgot all about it yesterday. I didn't think it through. This is the first time for you to go to a foreign country to perform a mission. You will definitely encounter many places you don't understand. If you are not familiar with the place, it will be troublesome if you don't have anyone as a guide."Mr. Carl took out the envelope from his pocket and put it in front of Merlin, "This is a letter of introduction. When you arrive in France, go directly to the guild in Maverick Town to find Mr. Acaron. He is my friend. I used to He has saved his life and is a trustworthy partner. If you encounter any problems, you can ask him first.

"Old Mister Acaron?" Merlin took the letter of introduction, thinking it might be useful, and considered it a kindness, so he accepted it with a smile, "Thank you, Mr. Carl.

"You're welcome, it's a trivial matter. If you two encounter any difficulties, just tell us, and the guild will help as much as possible." Mr. Carl smiled heartily.

"Merlin, you are about to take off while holding Alice's thigh~" Hobbs patted Merlin's shoulder.

"Go! Who's hugging whose thigh?" Merlin rolled his eyes, a little annoyed.

"Carl, does this Akalon sound familiar? Who is it?" Hobbs rubbed his chin and thought.

"It's the French Perseverance Emperor, who completed 9999999 low-level commissions and successfully promoted from black iron to silver adventurer at the age of 102!" Mr. Carl said with admiration.

"It turned out to be him?!"

Merlin exclaimed, he had heard about the glorious deeds of this legendary figure from the very beginning, it was so strong that it exploded!

He looked at the black iron adventurer certificate on his neck, and suddenly felt ashamed. Compared with Akaron, he was weak!

So Merlin quickly took out the letter of introduction, his expression became solemn, and he worshiped and thought in his heart, this old Akalon lost first; he is the real strong man!

No.15 The Dark Night Shrouded France Chapter 1: Monthly Ticket Plus (Port)

Merlin and Alice had never been to France, and at first they thought it was a human empire no less than Britain.

It is full of prosperous big and small cities, and life will be very good, at least it is almost the same as Britain.

However, the truth is not what the two imagined. France is not very beautiful, but more like a freak with developmental deformities.

Except for the imperial capital of Paris, which symbolizes royal power, other places are dilapidated, as if they have been baptized by war, and hungry refugees can be seen everywhere. If Merlin and Alice hadn't seen all this with their own eyes, it would be hard to believe that there is such a gap between countries separated by a strait. so big.

It seems that many things need to be seen with one's own eyes, rather than just based on one's own guess...

Once Merlin and Alice are ready, they can set off for France.

They set off from the port of Bristol in Britain, crossed the strait on a trading ship, and disembarked at the port of Montouille in France.

The two came down one after another with salutes. The plan was to find the old Mr. Akaron introduced by Karl as a guide, and then go to the Glen Plains to investigate.

Merlin and Alice saluted, looking at the scene in front of them, they were in a weird mood for a while, and didn't speak.

"Alice, don't people say that France is a country comparable to Britain? Why do I feel like I'm in a slum?" Merlin said blankly, the lack of hope made him feel bad.

"I don't know. It stands to reason that places with ports are more prosperous, but here emmm... Alice was speechless and felt that she had been greatly deceived.

There is not much prosperity in front of the two of them. Old dilapidated houses can be seen everywhere, but they are intertwined with each other in an ugly way. Combined with the hungry refugees that can be seen everywhere on the street, it is really a large slum.

"Maybe only this place is special? Other places may be better." Alice came to the conclusion that she couldn't generalize based on the sight in front of her.

Also, let's go, ours will go to Maverick Town first.

Merlin saluted less, and it was easy to carry, so he walked quickly, and Alice was ruthlessly left behind.

Alice followed closely behind with a big suitcase, and she had to trot to barely keep up with Merlin's footsteps, which seemed very difficult.

"Merlin! Wait for me! Don't go so fast!"

"A child? Who wants to wait for you?" Merlin responded casually.

"You ruthless bastard, help me! There's something about you here too!" Alice said crazily.

"Do you have to take your own things? We have a clear division of labor. Don't expect to use me as a strong laborer. There is no way!" Merlin said bluntly, not wanting to turn around and help Alice.

"Ah!?" Alice's eyes widened, feeling incredible that there are such brazen people in the world, "You bastard said you have to take things by yourself! I picked the lightest box when I got off the boat, and put the most The heavy handing over to me is obviously premeditated!? What a thick-skinned gentleman without manners!"

"...A drop of cold sweat dripped down on Merlin's forehead, and he thought to himself, this troublesome ugly woman, is a big box and a small box so important? Which point is so trivial to a holy rank powerhouse! Just as Merlin was thinking When it was time to go back and reason with Alice, a large group of refugees rushed up, holding bowls and begging for alms: "Master, give me something to eat.

"Please give me something to eat, may the Goddess of Light bless you!

"Sir! Sir! Please have pity on me!

Merlin was taken aback. This huge wave of refugees looked like bandits who broke out halfway, which made people feel flustered.

In fact, most of the refugees stay here at the port, because many foreigners come here, and it is easier to beg for food and money, so the number of refugees is large, which makes the whole port give people the illusion of being in a slum.

Merlin is an out-and-out iron cock, meeting him is considered unlucky for these refugees, "I have no money! Get out of the way! Don't be disobedient in my way! I'll beat you!? Hey hey hey! Don't touch me Ah! Why are there thieves everywhere in France who only steal foreigners!? What kind of quality? Take the purse!?

Alice has always been soft-hearted, but she is still warm and kind-hearted. Naturally, she can't see so many refugees begging pitifully, and suddenly has the urge to give away all her money.

Merlin saw that it was okay, Alice wanted to let herself sleep on the street and eat grass roots and bark.

"Alice! What are you doing, you bitch!?"

Alice looked at Merlin and said aggrievedly, "They are so pitiful, shall we help them?

"What!?" Merlin hurriedly pushed away the refugees beside him, walked over to hold Alice in his arms, and pinched her neck, "I warn you not to make trouble, calm down, we don't have much money, The food and lodging for this trip depends entirely on the few gold coins. If you show kindness, the two of us can only eat dirt! Besides, there are too many refugees here. Even if you sell you, they won’t be able to satisfy their hunger. Be sober. Come on! Charity will not solve the problem!"

Alice felt quite comfortable being held in Merlin's arms, her face blushed uncontrollably subconsciously, and she stammered, "...I know, it's okay to just help them a little bit, right?"
