  Chapter 220 Gap Journey

After fully gaining the power of Death Rune, Duanmuhuai also set off immediately, heading for the big elevator. Originally, according to Lani, the big elevator needs a key to activate it, but Duanmuhuai was too lazy to find it. Knowing where the key was hidden, he activated the jetpack and flew directly to the Yatan Plateau.

  As Lani said, the outside of the royal city was in a mess, with ruins left by the war everywhere, and there were even several huge steel giants walking on the ground. They held longbows and moved slowly. But Duanmu Huai was too lazy to provoke these boring puppets, he directly bypassed the battlefield, intending to go to the volcano mansion from the other side.

  However, when Duanmuhuai walked halfway, suddenly, a familiar fragrance came.

Um? This smell is not...

Smelling this smell, Duanmuhuai's eyes lit up immediately, and then he turned around and walked in the direction of the scent. Not long after, Duanmuhuai saw a man sitting by the river below the king's city, and he The cauldron in front of him exudes a tangy aroma.

"who is it?!"

  Hearing Duanmuhuai's footsteps, the man was startled and stood up hastily. When he saw the terrifying giant not far behind him, the man drew out his knife in fright. Seeing the man like this, Duanmu Huai hurriedly took off his helmet and greeted him.

"it's me."

   "Hey, it's you, that really surprised me."

  Seeing Duanmuhuai's familiar face, the man was relieved, and Duanmuhuai also walked to the man's side and sat down, while looking at the red crabs burning in the pot.

   "Changed the taste this time?"

   "Hey, it's not bad to eat crabs."

  The man chuckled. In fact, this man was none other than Brother Shrimp who had eaten spicy crayfish with Duanmu Huai in Lienia before. At this moment, he was also staring at the pot, then raised his head to look at Duanmuhuai, and rubbed his hands in embarrassment.

   "That... I have a heartfelt request, do you still have the seasoning you put in before? Although I have collected the rest after that, it is difficult to save..."

"no problem."

  Duanmu Huai also smelled that the spicy aroma in the pot was not very strong. It seems that after that, the shrimp brother used the soup inside for countless times, and now the smell is not so strong. So he didn't say much, just took out a piece of hot pot ingredients from his pocket, opened it, and handed it over.

   "I'll see you off."

   "Hey, thanks!"

  Brother Xiazi was obviously also quite excited. He stretched out his hand excitedly to take the hot pot ingredients from Duanmuhuai, then took some and put them in the pot, and then carefully kept the rest. Soon, not long after Brother Xiazi added the seasoning again, the spicy and delicious smell came from the pot again, and looking at the sweet and plump crabs, people couldn't help but salivate.

   "Okay!"

   Soon, the two stretched out their hands and began to enjoy the delicious crab in front of them. I have to say that Brother Xiazi really knows how to cook, at least he knows how to cook these things better than Duanmuhuai. When making crayfish before, Duanmuhuai just threw in the seasoning directly, and the taste was somewhat biased. However, since the spicy crayfish itself has a strong taste, it is not a big problem.

But when it comes to the ingredients of crabs, Brother Xiazi is obviously quite particular. He uses no more or less ingredients, which not only brings out the deliciousness of the crabs, but also does not lose the spicy and spicy aroma. It's a joy.

   "Hoo......"

   Soon, the pot of crabs was eaten up by the two of them, and Brother Xiazi also touched his round belly and sat on the ground.

   "It's really comfortable..."

   "What are your plans for the future?"

While eating crabs, Duanmu Huai looked at Brother Xiazi curiously. He could tell that Brother Xiazi was just an ordinary person, and he didn't seem to have any plans, and now he was alone in this dangerous borderland. Running around... Could it be that he intends to be a gourmet?

"I don't know either."

  Brother Shrimp shrugged.

"I used to be just a little bastard. I was locked in a cell and then ran out. Who knows, the world has become like this now... I don't know where I should go or what I should do... I don't know what to do..." Knowing what this **** world will become..."

   "I think it would be good to open a restaurant with your skills."

   "Hahaha, that's a good idea."

  Hearing what Duanmuhuai said, Brother Xiazi burst out laughing.

   "If you are interested, I can introduce you to a place."

  Duanmuhuai thought for a while, and then said, he and Xiazi brother are considered to be destined, although they only met a few times, but they have eaten delicacies together, and Duanmuhuai does not want this brother Xiazi to die somewhere.

"I'm going to the Volcano Mansion to find someone. If you believe me, wait for me here. When I come back, I'll take you to a place. Although it's not particularly prosperous, it's better than this crazy place running all over the place." Much better."

"Um………"

  Hearing Duanmuhuai's proposal, Brother Xiazi thought for a while, then nodded.

   "Okay, I want to see what good place you introduced to me... Then I'll wait for you here."

While chatting with Brother Xiazi while eating crabs, Duanmuhuai did not forget to contact Bambi and Milfie through telepathy to ask about their progress, and Bambi did bring a piece of news to Duanmuhuai—they did not No trace of Mysterina was found on the Weeping Peninsula, but the wandering businessman here gave them a clue. He once saw a girl with a similar appearance heading in the direction of Stonewell City...

  Mysterina went to Stonewell?

I have to say that Duanmuhuai was a little bit surprised when he heard this, but he and Mysterina must have missed each other, so Duanmuhuai also told Bambi to let her and Milfie continue to follow this clue to find him. . At the same time, Duanmu Huai's heart was somewhat relaxed.

  At least for now, Mysterina should be above the junction, not below—if she is deeper underground, it may be more difficult to find.

   "...Oh, I'd better tell you."

   Just when Duanmuhuai and Bambi finished contacting, Brother Xiazi, who was sitting there digesting food, seemed to think of something, looked at Duanmuhuai and said.

   "Do you know Coprophagia?"

   "It's time to eat, can you stop talking about disgusting things?"

  Duanmuhuai glanced at the crab roe in his hand... You didn't mean it on purpose, did you?

   "Hahaha, sorry, that's a lunatic wearing a disgusting, ugly armor, cursing the world."

   Speaking of this, Brother Xiazi's expression became much more serious.

"It seems that you are very strong, but I still want to tell you, if you meet that guy, don't get close to him...I was locked in the same cell as him before, so I know. That guy is as small as me The gangster is different, he is a very scary man. That guy will kill people to put an eternal curse on the soul, and then he will cover the whole corpse with his own curse... Defile the corpse..."

  While talking, Brother Xiazi seemed to recall something, and shivered involuntarily.

   "...I have never seen such a disgusting sight. I saw a defiled corpse near here before, and that guy is here... Be careful, don't touch him, that guy is not a good thing."

   "Okay, thank you for the reminder, I will pay attention."

Of course, Duanmuhuai wouldn't pay attention to a guy who just eats... Forget it, he doesn't talk about this stuff when he eats, but seeing Brother Xiazi's disgusting look, he also remembers this guy to some extent down. Clearly, this is no fun.

  If you encounter it, just kill it.

   While Duanmuhuai was chatting with Brother Xiazi, Misterina was going through the scariest adventure in her life.

   "Miss Heda, do you want to go on?"

   Holding the sword in one hand and the shield in the other, Mysterina looked anxiously at Heida beside her. After that, she followed the blind witch to the royal city. However, to Misterina's surprise, the location of the lights on the other side that Haida sensed was located in the royal city - the sewer. .

  Well, Mysterina swears, she has never been to such a dirty place.

  The entire sewer is extremely dark, full of rotting rats as big as dogs, and twisted and mutated humans and plants under the curse, not to mention the sewage flowing across the ground and the stench from the pavement. It made Misterina a little unbearable. She had never encountered a similar situation in the forest. What was born here was not just some corrupt and tattered things. Mysterina could feel that in the darkness deep in the sewer, there seemed to be something more...

   "...!"

  At this moment, Mysterina suddenly stopped. She raised her shield to block in front of her, staring carefully at the front. Then, under Misterina's gaze, a strange and distorted figure slowly appeared.

  He was wearing a dirty, ugly armor full of corruption and stench, and his whole body looked like he had been soaked in dung, full of disgusting and extremely irritating breath. And the pustules and dirt covered on the surface of the armor are even more difficult to look at directly.

  I saw him slowly raising his head, staring at Mysterina viciously. Sensing the other party's gaze, Misterina couldn't help but shiver. She couldn't feel any kindness from that gaze, all she had was pure hatred, hatred, anger, and aversion to everything in this world.

   "...I will kill you and defile you. I will eat all of you, I am... a dung-eater! Curse on you all!"

   While shouting, he raised the big sword in his hand.

   "I want to kill you, and I will completely defile your corpses! Let everyone be born under the curse, and let the curse of descendants and descendants continue! I want to kill——!"

   As soon as the voice fell, the other party rushed towards Mysterina!

   "Miss Heda, please stay away from me!"

  Mysterina raised her shield and shouted loudly. Although she didn't know who this terrifying guy was, it was obvious—he had already set his sights on her.

   "I am Mysterina, the princess of the forest! Evil one, die!"

   Roaring loudly, Misterina raised her shield and went up to the monster in front of her.
