Black Stone City Magic Association.

There are many shops selling magic materials on the streets near the Magic Association.

However, those shops are all empty, with only one clerk left to guard the shop, and the others have gone outside the city to see the miracle of the goddess of light descending.

Cheng Yu walked into a magic material shop, came to the counter, and asked a skinny clerk, "Friend, do you sell wood dragon roots and heavenly vanilla here?"

The clerk greeted with a smile, "Yes, yes, yes, wood dragon roots are 50 silver coins each, and heavenly vanilla is 20 silver coins per catty. How much do you want?"

"Give me ten wood dragon roots and twenty catties of heavenly vanilla."

Cheng Yu always buys more magic materials. He can use them more often if he has more.

Nine gold coins are lined up on the counter.

The clerk collected the money and put ten wood dragon roots and twenty catties of heavenly vanilla in a cloth bag for Cheng Yu.

After purchasing the materials, Cheng Yu and Aphra walked out of the magic material shop.

"Human cities are warmer than demon cities."

Looking around, Aphra came to a human city for the first time and felt the atmosphere of the human main city.

Cheng Yu had never been to the Demon Realm, "Is the demon city cold?"

"It snows in the Demon Realm all year round. Do you think it's cold?"

"It's really a bitter cold place in the far north."

"The Demon King also used this as an excuse to call on the demons to expand southward and occupy human territory."

"This contradiction is unsolvable."

It is understandable that the demons expand southward for survival, and it is also reasonable for humans to defend their homes from being invaded. Such a contradiction cannot be reconciled.

The business of coming to Black Stone City has been completed, and Cheng Yu plans to return to Bailu Town today.

Bailu Town is to the east of Black Stone City. Cheng Yu and Aphra chatted while walking towards the east gate of Black Stone City.

When the two came to the east gate of Black Stone City, the east gate was empty, with only a carriage. The driver squatted beside the carriage wheel, covering his face with a felt hat and taking a nap.

"Friend, why is there only one carriage here?" Cheng Yu walked over to ask.

Logically, there should be many carriages gathered at the city gate.

Taking off the felt hat on his face, the driver glanced at Cheng Yu, "Everyone else went to worship the miracle of the Goddess of Light."

"Why didn't you go?"

"I don't believe in the Goddess of Light."

Not everyone in the Black Sun Empire believes in the Goddess of Light.

"We two want to go to Bailu Town, how much?"

"Five gold coins per person, ten gold coins for two."

"Damn, so expensive?"

Cheng Yu took a ride on the caravan to Black Stone City for only five silver coins, but this driver asked for five gold coins right away. It was simply a black car.

"Cheng Yu, are you going back to Bailu Town? I can fly."

Afra on the side said.

"Yes, you can fly."

Cheng Yu remembered that he had met a vampire before, and a pair of big red wings could grow from the back of the vampire.

Afra is the leader of the vampire, so she should have it too.

Flying is much faster than riding in a carriage.

The two came to a forest outside Black Stone City. The forest was dense and there was no one around.

Aphra stood there, closed her eyes slightly, and the powerful blood-red magic overflowed from her body, condensing into a pair of translucent red energy wings behind her.

"Which direction is Bailu Town?"

"East."

Afra grabbed Cheng Yu's hand, and the red energy wings behind her flapped hard, raising a whirlwind, and took Cheng Yu out at a very fast speed.

Cheng Yu held Aphra's slender hand, which was soft and delicate, with a funny smile on his face.

Ten minutes later.

Aphra took Cheng Yu to the woods outside the west gate of Black Stone City.

Looking at the west gate of Black Stone City outside the dense forest, Cheng Yu was speechless, "No, beauty, you flew east, why did you fly to the west gate of Black Stone City?"

"My sense of direction is too poor."

Afra's pretty face was a little embarrassed.

Flying at low altitude in the dense forest, it is difficult to tell the direction, and the flight will be off course.

"You are really a directionally challenged person."

"Yes."

Afra would not tell Cheng Yu that she often got lost in the Demon Realm, and every time her subordinates tried to find her, they would turn the territory upside down.

"Let's go to the east gate again, and I will help you correct the direction."

"Okay."

Cheng Yu and Afra returned to the woods outside the east gate of Black Stone City.

Like before, Afra flapped her wings and flew low to the east.

Afra's sense of direction was very poor, and she began to deviate from the course after flying for less than a minute.

"Fly a little to the left."

"Right, a little more to the right."

"Left."

~

Every ten seconds or so, Cheng Yu helped Afra correct the direction.

It would take two days and two nights to get to Bailu Town by carriage. Afra flew quickly for half an hour and brought Cheng Yu to the vicinity of Bailu Town.

Cheng Yu discovered that AfuLa's sense of direction is not ordinary. If she is thrown into the primeval forest, she will probably never get out of it in her lifetime.

Afra put away her red wings and followed Cheng Yu to his manor.

Walking into the manor, several middle-aged men were sitting in front of the stone table in the manor's garden.

Mina was pouring tea for those middle-aged men.

"Cheng Yu, you are back."

Seeing Cheng Yu coming back, Mina put down the teapot, ran over in surprise, jumped on Cheng Yu, clamped her legs around Cheng Yu's waist, hugged Cheng Yu's neck with her arms, and threw Cheng Yu into her arms.

A pair of big hands supported Mina's buttocks.

Cheng Yu looked at the people in front of the stone table. He knew two of them, General Barney, the supreme commander of the Northern Fortress, and Abel, the deputy head of the Magic Corps.

Although he didn't know the other few people, he was familiar with them. They should be the senior officials of the Northern Fortress.

"Cheng Yu, you are finally back."

Barney's rough old face was smiling.

Cheng Yu was puzzled, "What are you doing here?"

"Senior officers are going out for training and strengthening team cohesion."

Bani brought several high-level officials from the Northern Fortress to Cheng Yu for dinner. In name, they were strengthening team cohesion, but in fact, they were just here to have a feast.

"Aren't we fighting now? Are you so free?"

Tight at the front and tight at the back?

"After the disappearance of the Blood Queen Aphra, the demons attacked the Northern Fortress less and less frequently, and they were free."

"So that's it."

It seems that Aphra's running to the Black Sun Empire is a good thing.

At this time, Bani noticed Aphra beside Cheng Yu, opened his mouth slightly, widened his eyes, and was so shocked that he couldn't speak.

Cheng Yu saw Bani's shocked expression and exclaimed in his heart that it was bad. This old guy seemed to recognize Aphra.

Except for General Bani, who was a scumbag, the other high-level officials from the Northern Fortress present were all masters.

If they fought with Aphra here, the beautiful manor would directly become a Syrian war-damaged style.

Not only that, he might also be charged with colluding with the demons.

Cheng Yu hurriedly said, "General, don't do anything yet, listen to my explanation."

"Young friend Cheng Yu has hooked up with another stunning beauty. Are your kidneys made of steel?"

Last time, Barney saw Cheng Yu hugging Ivennie and Mina, and warned Cheng Yu that young people should be restrained. If they don't know the value of sperm when they are young, they will cry when they look at the sky when they are old.

Unexpectedly, Cheng Yu didn't listen to the warning and hooked up with beautiful women again.

"Huh???"

Cheng Yu breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that Barney had discovered Aphra's identity, but it turned out that he was surprised by this.

"By the way, have you seen Aphra?" Cheng Yu asked Barney and others.

"No."

Everyone shook their heads.

Aphra doesn't like war. Every time the demons attack the Northern Fortress, she throws a super-large-scale domain skill to the battlefield from the rear. The bloody domain covers the entire battlefield, causing the soldiers of the Northern Fortress to continue to lose blood, and then they start to lie down and fish.

Therefore, although everyone in the Northern Fortress has heard of Aphra's fierce reputation, no one has seen her real body.

Aphra looked at the high-level officials of the Northern Fortress. She is not a war advocate and is not interested in the high-level officials of the Northern Fortress.

"Friend Cheng Yu, please help us make something delicious." Barney said.

"I'll make you a braised bear paw, but the price may be a bit expensive."

The last time Cheng Yu went to the maze of the God of Order, he got a pair of bear paws of the Ice Demon Bear, which were plump and delicious.

Barney: "How much?"

Cheng Yu: "We are all acquaintances. I'll charge you fifty gold coins."

"Fifty gold coins are not expensive."

Barney and others are high-level officials of the Northern Fortress and are very rich.

Eight people, fifty gold coins, evenly divided, each person only has a few gold coins, which is not too expensive.
