Hala was unwilling to lead the army, and Bai Ling was very likely to be the Queen Mother. These two matters gave Reina a headache. Things were not as simple as she had imagined.
Master, you lied! What happened to the promised help?
She sat alone in her room, gloomily looking at the moon outside the window.
The soft mattress, the comfortable lighting, and the pleasant fragrance. But in this luxurious room, she was unable to fall asleep. She felt restless and uneasy, not knowing what to do. This was not the first time she had felt so lost about the future, but this was definitely the first time she had felt so powerless. She could not see any way out. Ahead of her was like a pitch-black lake. She could not see where the path led.
Finally, she let out a long sigh and decided to take a walk outside.
In order to avoid getting lost, she had left a magical mark at the door. But as soon as she stepped out, she ran into two human guards. They had been standing guard here all this time, guarding the row of rooms in the corridor.
"Where are you going?"
One of them asked. This was the Wusen Empire, an empire of many races. Not only were there many demons, but there were also humans and elves.
"I'm going to take a walk outside."
Reina said half-heartedly. She closed the door and walked outside, but the two guards followed her.
"Hala wanted you to watch me?"
She did not know if they had been sent by Hala to watch her. Perhaps Hala was worried that she would interfere with the Queen Mother's matters.
"You misunderstand. You are our most honored guest. No one will watch you."
"We are responsible for your safety. Furthermore, you are not familiar with this place. It is very likely that you will get lost."
The two hurriedly said, but this could not stop Reina from running outside.
"How could I not find such a large room? Tell Hala that I do not wish for anyone to follow me. It will make me feel as if you are suspecting that I will secretly do something bad."
Reina said as she walked. Her footsteps were very fast, and the guards hurriedly followed behind her. Just catching up to her made them gasp for breath.
She stopped and showed a displeased expression.
"Is there anything else!?"
Reina asked.
"No, honored lady. The exit, the exit is over there."
One of the guards said, panting …
What kind of country was the Wussen Empire?
Unlike what Linna had imagined, this place wasn't a typical Demon Kingdom. Instead, it was a very harmonious and prosperous empire. The current Wussen Empire was only an extremely small country. Its surface area was not even as large as a large country's city, but it had once occupied more than half of the world, shocking everyone.
The street was very clean and the Magic Crystal street lamps lit up the entire street. Even at night, there were quite a few people. But Reina quickly realized that for these demons, it was still daytime. They were a nocturnal race. They woke up at night and went to sleep when the sun rose.
And because of their existence, the city was divided into two sides, black and white. Reina walked through the streets and found that not all the streets were so bright at night. At night, the downtown area was almost in the center, and the residential area was on the outside, circle after circle. In each circle, a small part of it was lit, and most of it was dark. Most people had already fallen asleep, and it was quiet and far away from the downtown area.
Reina did not see an army. She only saw an ordinary city and thousands of ordinary people. They did not belong to the same race, but they belonged to the same empire. This was the only city in the world where so many races lived together. At least, this was the first time Reina had seen such a country.
The only thing similar to this was the edge of the world. There was an alliance called the Honeycomb Alliance there, but the races under the alliance did not live together. They had their own territories and did not interfere with each other.
This was the scene of the city, as well as the forest. She found that the city and the forest were one. There was a dense urban style, and there were also houses scattered in the forest. There were even orchards and fields. She did not enter the forest, but instead went to the fields. Because this place was very beautiful, there were many glowing insects flying about in the fields, like stars in the sky.
This kind of tranquility made it easy to forget the time. The cool night wind calmed Reina down a bit. Just as she was preparing to go back, she saw a figure in the fields. The figure was carrying a lamp filled with glowing insects. The lamp was hanging from a hoe, which he carried on his shoulder.
This was obviously a farmer. Although he looked similar to a human, he was not human. He had fangs that humans did not have, and his body was much stronger. He was wearing a thin plain white shirt and a sweat cloth around his neck. He was an Orc.
The Orc looked fierce, and there was a scar on his face. What was even more strange was that there was a huge white wolf behind him.
Reina stood on the road in the fields, and the two just happened to meet.
The Orcs were a race that was famous for being warlike. Humans listed them as their mortal enemies. They had produced many Demon King throughout history. They were also one of the demon races that were most similar to humans. Reina had met them before, but every time they met, they could not avoid a battle.
She stood silently at the side, waiting for the other party to pass by.
However, when the other party saw her, he stopped.
"Are you lost? Foreign human little girl. "
Hearing this, Reina was a little shocked.
"No, I just thought this place was very beautiful, so I came to take a look. I am not lost."
She might not know the way back, but she could definitely return to that room, so she firmly believed that she was not lost.
"Is that so?"
Saying this, the Orc turned around and looked into the distance.
"Indeed, such neat farmland is really a beautiful picture, especially after the rain, when the waves are shining. I really like it here. Look, that is my field. "
Saying this, he pointed to a place. Reina did not know where his field was.
"I can see that this will be a good harvest."
Reina replied.
"Yes, there is nothing more to be happy about."
The Orc laughed. He was much easier to get along with than Reina thought. He was not a fierce and warlike Orc.
"I did come to this place today, but how did you know?"
She asked the question in her heart.
The orc scratched his head and chuckled. "I'm just guessing, but there's some basis for it. The people here won't be as distressed and confused as you are. Moreover, they won't come here at such a late hour. My wolf smelled your scent and clamped its tail, which means that you are not an ordinary person. "
Saying this, he touched the head of the giant wolf, but no matter how Reina looked at it, the Orc in front of her was just ordinary. He did not have powerful magic, nor did he have any special power, but he gave people a strange feeling.
"Sometimes, a person's distress will not get any results. You can talk about your troubles. Although I am just a farmer, I might be able to help you."
The Orc said.
Reina sighed. How could a farmer help her?
"It is useless, you will not believe me. If I say that I am the disciple of your Demon King Richard, would you believe me?"
Hearing this, the Orc was stunned for a moment, then he laughed and said, "Then let me ask you, little girl. If I say that I was the general of an army of hundreds of thousands, the representative of the Orc Alliance, would you believe me?"
Reina frowned. She did not believe him. To be honest, she knew that the demons were different from humans. Their generals must have been selected through slaughter, and none of them were good to provoke. But the Orc in front of her … Other than looking a little fierce, she did not feel threatened at all.
