The Demon Hunter

In fact, they almost missed Barclay.Just two hours before the big search began, a fierce melee broke out among the demon hunters in the camp, and a group of energetic fighters were detained in a small place. This kind of thing always happens.Those camp guards in Dar'Khan knew this too, so they didn't even join in to stop them at the time, just watched, and then when the fighting was over, helped them carry the wounded out of the camp to the church for treatment.

But those guards obviously didn't expect that the partner of Emperor Noel they were looking for was also carried out of the camp in this way.

When they realized that they had made this mistake, they rushed to look for it, and after further investigation, at least twenty demon hunters had disappeared without a trace.

Before the five of them were brought into the meeting hall, the orderly who led the way gave them a rough account of what happened yesterday afternoon and evening.

Originally, they all thought that the hall would be noisy, but in fact, the emperor was the only one sitting on the long discussion table.

"Please sit down, my friends." The king's voice sounded dry and hoarse, and it is likely that he has not rested all night. "I want to apologize for my insolence yesterday." This opening line is really unexpected. You did a great job of doing what you were supposed to do in a very short period of time, but in the end, my people messed things up."

"You don't need to apologize, Your Majesty." Ansel was not as harsh and tit-for-tat as yesterday, in fact, he was almost polite, "If there is anything else we can help, please feel free to say it. "

"No, now I can only trust my soldiers and generals." Alexander smiled wryly.

"Then, Your Majesty, I don't know if we can join the search team. After all, one more team means more opportunities."

Although the emperor felt that it was useless to add five of them who were not familiar with the terrain at all—of course he didn't say it directly—he still let them join, and even gave them horses and maps.

"The emperor said before that he was willing to follow the blood race to destroy the world, but his performance just now is not as indifferent to the safety of the world as he once said." Evan said after getting on his horse.

Lucy laughed out loud: "Little pastor, I don't think that man's worry is for other people's life and death, his sadness is only because his emperor's partner was stolen under his nose. Although he is also An emperor, but it seems that he is not self-conscious, he still puts himself in the position of being loyal to others." After this always gloomy girl, after knowing that there were three "sisters" in the team yesterday, suddenly The room became lively and bright.

"Okay, you two, we're leaving." Ansel clapped his hands to signal, but when everyone was focusing on him, he suddenly smacked his lips and asked seriously, "You know we're going In which direction are you heading?"

It's a miracle no one fell off the horse.

"So, you took the initiative to ask the emperor to join the search, but you don't even know where we are going?" Ke Luoyin said in a strange tone.

Ansel glared at him: "Who said no? I know I just want to know different opinions."

"Then we have no objection, you can choose." Cologne shrugged.

"Of course!" Ansel said, and then he dismounted, ran to a nearby tree, broke a branch and ran back, "Then, let fate guide us~"

"..." Cologne wondered for the hundredth time, is this guy really an outstanding and well-known treasure hunter?

But in the end they still followed the branch, but obviously no one had the confidence that they would find the traces of the thieves.

And they were not alone on this road. Within one day, they encountered two groups of Darkan soldiers, each with 20 soldiers. Fortunately, the emperor gave them passwords and official documents when they left, otherwise these soldiers would have been killed. They are going to be sent back to the capital as suspicious persons.

Spent the night in the field with one of the squads of soldiers - who, having learned their identities, were friendly.Early the next morning, Ansel used another branch as a guide and parted ways with them.

And near noon, they ran into a third group of soldiers.It was still tense at the beginning, but after exchanging passwords and official documents, the atmosphere eased and became friendly, and the two sides said goodbye with smiles.The five-member demon hunting team ran in another direction, and after making sure they were out of the sight of that group of soldiers, they stopped suddenly.

In fact, Ansel, Cologne, and Lucy reined in the horse at the same time, and Lance and Evan just followed them.

"It seems that we have the same opinion." Ansel looked at Lucy and Cologne, and then he turned to Evan and said, "You should be able to find the team of soldiers who broke up with us early in the morning and tell them that we discovered the theft traces of the perpetrators!"

"what?"

"That team just now is, they are definitely not Darkan's soldiers."

"Okay, I'll go find someone." Evan was still puzzled. After all, he didn't find any doubts from those people, but the time was obviously tight now, so he didn't ask any more questions, but turned his horse around and went to find Darkan. soldiers.

The remaining four people hid in the woods, stalking them far behind the team - Lucy also suggested to fight directly, but Ansel didn't think that bringing three fluffy rookies, Can you do more than twenty absolute veterans who don't know the depth?

They thought they were following carefully enough, but suddenly how many people were missing in the team?They had just discovered this before an arrow shot through the trunk Ansel had used to shield himself.Even though he reacted quickly enough, there was a stabbing pain in his chest, his heart was still intact, but the skin had been pierced beyond his shoulder.

Six men appeared, even in the uniforms of the Darkan Army.The leader held a longbow in his hand, and the arrow was obviously his handwriting.Ke Luoyin immediately took out the medicine from his pocket and stuffed it into his mouth, then gritted his teeth and endured the pain, and rolled into a bush.

The people who came were not in a hurry to attack. It seems that the dangerous arrow they shot before was just a warning: "We are a little curious, what made you realize that something is wrong?"

"Many places." Behind Ansel's hands, he was actually loading arrows into the small hand crossbow on his left arm. Lance and Lucy had already drawn their swords, and their actions were not invisible to the other party. But they just watched, even with some cat-and-mouse frivolity and expectation on their faces, "You seem to be well-trained, but everyone keeps a distance from each other, and no one is on the shoulders of teammates. Next to each other, your clothes are also very neat, but you don't have two pairs of amulets on your body, the way you walk, everyone looks forward, and their eyes are cold, no one looks at their teammates... "

Ansel kept talking, but the reason is actually very simple. The organization of the Darkan army is like the holy army of Thebes in ancient Greece on Earth①. Lovers who have established a relationship will be specially assigned to a team. Let them fight more bravely, and it is rare for them to abandon their teammates and defect alone.

And the five of them have come into contact with two real Darkan armies before, they are performing missions, but you can't ask these soldiers who love each other to have no intimacy, especially last night when they camped together - hugging each other by the campfire The people talking together, the figures embracing intimately in the shadow of the tent, the soldiers feeding the horses talking and laughing intimately and touching their fingers from time to time, and even the soldiers standing guard, of course, they were sticking to their duties and did not do anything. It's an inappropriate thing, but the shoulders that are close together clearly express that they are each other's dependence and companion...

It was a group of handsome and powerful men, but the atmosphere of the entire camp seemed to be pink in the darkness.The five demon hunters all lay down in their sleeping bags early last night, but none of them could sleep well except Lance, after all, the atmosphere around them was really "strange"!

So, that's why today, except for Evan and Lance, everyone else can see something is wrong at a glance.This team of pretended soldiers was really too "soldiers". They didn't have the deeper connection between men in Darkan's army.

"That's why I hate this disgusting place." The leading man spat on the ground, "But thank you for telling us the reason, and in return, I'll let you all die quickly..."

Ansel's small crossbow shot an arrow. Although the man dodged in time, he also had a gash on his cheek: "You will end up talking too much nonsense." As Ansel said, the second arrow was already installed.

It is inevitable to start fighting.Thanks to Ansel's delay and the leader's nonsense, Cologne has completed the transformation.So when a man wielded a long sword and chopped into the grass, he was surprised to find that the one who jumped out of the grass was not the beautiful young man he had imagined who was so frightened and crying bitterly.

In fact, he didn't even see who jumped out, but the grass suddenly flashed, and then his throat was strangled, all he could see was a pair of sky blue eyes, a pair of sky blue eyes flashing with hesitation and irritability , and then his world becomes dark, forever.

This is the first time for Cologne to kill someone, but probably because he has experienced too much before, and at this moment he also clearly understands that he can't live without killing others, so the hesitation is only for a moment. Searle and Lance taught each other to crush each other's throats.

He took two steps to help Ansel, who was the leader's target, and Ansel was obviously at a disadvantage.But then Cologne stopped grinning his teeth. This time, his clothes didn't completely tear apart, at least his pants remained.But it didn't make him feel good, in fact he felt that some important part of himself was being strangled - how did the big green man in the comics on earth put up with all this?

Cologne cursed, hesitating between being strangled and walking the bird, and then he saw the cloak of the dead man he just killed, so he tore his pants, grabbed the cloak and wrapped it around his waist superior.

The author has something to say: ①The Holy Army of Thebes: In 378 BC, the general of the ancient Greek city-state Thebes, Gorgidas, created a very special army, the "Holy Army" of Thebes. Composed of 300 people (150 pairs), the soldiers were selected from various legions in Thebes, and these soldiers were all of noble origin.The criteria for selection are: homosexuality, lover relationship, and strong combat effectiveness.After these three conditions, 300 people can be selected, which also reflects the prevalence of homosexuality in the Thebes army.A commander of the Holy Army once said: "People of the same clan or tribe seldom help each other in times of crisis. A legion should weave fighters who love each other together so that they can form an unbreakable and indestructible unit, because a person is He would never lose face in front of his lover, and he would sacrifice his life to protect the one he loves." It was also the only all-gay army in history.
