Deep in the valley.
A huge magic circle was set up on the ground with gravel engraved with rough markings.
Dozens of humanoid beings in yellow robes were standing around the magic circle.
They had activated the magic circle together and summoned four giant tentacles to break the suspension bridge and lure Han Dong and the others down.
The leader, who had communicated with Han Dong in secret, slowly lifted his hood.
What was revealed was a black face.
However, his eyes were made of stone, and there were some stones embedded in his neck area. According to the classification of low-level beings outside the city, he should be classified as an [Inhuman].
Some pitiful humans who were not protected by the country when the apocalypse arrived would be enslaved by the Hybrid Demons and become [Heretics].
They lived by sacrificing and serving the Hybrid Demons.
Only a small number of talented heretics were able to become [Inhumans] through the 'gift' of the Hybrid Demons without losing their willfulness and willpower.
However, they could not treat heretics or Inhumans as humans.
Their hearts had been completely corrupted, and there was no trace of humanity. They only lived for the 'Hybrid Demon Master' they served, and they absolutely rejected humans.
As mentioned in the previous paragraph.
Heretics usually worked in the villages, castles, or special areas ruled by the Hybrid Demons. Once they sensed the invasion of outsiders, they would immediately choose to sacrifice themselves. They did not take their lives seriously at all.
However, the current situation was a little strange …
"Knights who came from afar, hello!
My name is Simon Fergus … The [Hybrid Demon – Lord Sodor] I served has been killed by the Scarlet Mountain Villa's Count.
As you can see, the Scarlet Mountain Villa built by the Count has already occupied most of the mountain range, and we can only be forced to live in the valley area that the Count disdains to occupy.
I know that you came from afar because of the Scarlet Mountain Villa.
We are willing to provide all funding, information about the villa, and maps of the mountain roads. We are also willing to lead the way for you and even provide some basic help.
As long as you can kill a noble of the Scarlet Mountain Villa, we will be extremely grateful. "
At this point, the black Simon lowered his head slightly.
According to the knowledge records of heretics and Inhumans in the Holy City, they would only lower their heads to the Hybrid Demons they served … To a certain extent, it meant that the Hybrid Demons they served were indeed dead.
But … all of this seemed a bit 'out of place'.
If it were not for Han Dong's special identity, this group of natives would not be so enthusiastic, nor would they cooperate with the knight … After all, they were enemies.
Just as Lucius and the others were having doubts, Lucius and the others were having their doubts.
Ga ga …
The Dozier Crow in Han Dong's body was released.
The two-headed raven man had a strong aura. With an arrogant look, he conversed with the black man, Simon, through the raven language.
After a while, he turned back to report the information to Han Dong.
"Captain Lucius, we can trust these cultists. They used to follow Zod and lived in the cave in the middle of Mount Adelaja.
It was a neutral force and was not under the protection of the old king.
They have connections with the Crowmen tribe in the Gaines Forest. My Crowmen friend has connections with them and can accept their help. "
"Crowmen?"
Lucius immediately connected two things.
Mr Black And White's raven attribute was unique. In the Holy City, it had long been rumored that Mr Black And White could control the neutral Crowmen in the Gaines Forest.
At present, Han Dong was Mr Black And White's only student. It was normal for him to have a Crowmen as his personal bodyguard.
The second thing was the old king's incident that Lucius and the others had personally experienced.
It was because of the help of the Crowmen tribe that they were able to safely escape to the Holy City … Why would the Crowmen in the Gaines Forest risk fighting against the old king to help the knights?
Perhaps the answer lay with Han Dong, who was in the same incident.
Therefore, Lucius did not have much doubt about Han Dong releasing the Crowmen and communicating with them.
Lucius revealed the fangs at the corner of his mouth and whispered:
"Crazy heretics, to be willing to suppress their depraved emotions and cooperate with us … It seems that Scarlet Mountain Villa has gone too far.
It doesn't seem good to talk in the valley. Let's talk in the cave where you temporarily live. "
The black man, Simon, made a very polite gesture.
"This way, please. We will do our best to receive you as humans …"
Since Lucius had made the decision, the team members did not object.
Needless to say, Demps had long seen through the fact that these heretics were so enthusiastic because of Han Dong's' lord 'status.
After all, they were a group of desperadoes who had lost their master. They even hoped to be protected by their lord, Han Dong.
Abel had worked with Han Dong too many times and completely trusted his decision.
"Blood Team, will there be a problem?"
Jean and Lunze had certain doubts. Having received formal knight education, it was difficult for them to accept establishing a cooperative relationship with a group of beings from outside the city.
"I know what I'm doing … At least, I can't smell [Blood Brew] from their blood. At least, I can be sure that they're not from Scarlet Mountain Villa.
If there's any conspiracy or attempt, we can just kill their Hybrid Demon master.
Besides, the formation that lured us down should be their strongest means. Since they didn't do anything, there shouldn't be a problem. "
"Okay."
As long as it was a decision made by Lucius, Jean and Lunze would not have any other opinions.
However, when they stared at the 'crowmen' standing on Han Dong's shoulder and transformed into a well-behaved crow, they could not help but be a little shocked.
After all, even the knowledgeable Undead Lunze had never heard of anyone being protected by the filth outside the city, let alone a trainee knight.
After a while, everyone entered the temporary habitat of the heretics after they were chased down the mountain.
It was a relatively large cave.
The interior was divided into three levels, and the cave was dug into the rock wall as a resting room.
There were some simple stone tables and stone stools in the hall area.
There were about fifty heretics living here, and Simon was the leader of this group of 'refugees.'
Senior Jean also used the shadows in the cave to conduct a comprehensive search to confirm that there were no hidden compartments or Hybrid Demons hiding in the dark.
This way, most of the concerns were eliminated.
Immediately after, a series of strange meat dishes that were simply roasted were served on the table to entertain the knights who came from afar.
At the same time, Simon also took out the information about Scarlet Mountain Villa and the map of the secret mountain path of Mount Aragad.
He habitually handed it to the 'Lord.'
However, Han Dong immediately gave him a look and handed it to Lucius.
