Chapter 93: Demon Lord Lu?

This kiss...

Counts as thanks?

Lu Ran pursed his lips and remained silent.

On such a life-and-death battlefield, especially at this moment when Da Mengyan's great revenge had been avenged, he wouldn't think crookedly.

Lu Ran was very clear that this kiss had absolutely nothing to do with romantic feelings.

It should be in the category of siblings; it was a reward given by Da Mengyan after he helped her slaughter her enemy.

After all, before Lu Ran arrived, everyone had been unable to open up the situation for a long time.

The Moon-Gazers not only had to endure deep pain and suffer the teasing and abuse of Yin Hua Dan, but also had to be fearful and bear the risk of sudden death at any time.

Therefore, Lu Ran truly believed, and sincerely hoped, that it was in the category of a sibling reward.

After all, there was another possibility!

Lu Ran had also pressed the little Li Hua's head and kissed its head.

If that counted, it would be in the category of master and pet!

That would be too miserable...

Lu Ran fought to the death to help her slaughter her enemy, only to end up as a "battle pet"?

Although he was a little lamb, and his bleating just now had indeed pronounced Yin Hua Dan's death sentence.

But...

If possible, Lu Ran still wanted to be a human.

"Hoo~"

Deng Yuxiang held Lu Ran with one hand and flew high, rushing toward the western night sky.

Lu Ran looked at the city below, scanning the demon souls emerging everywhere: "Stabilize your mindset, you still have to fight for a long time."

"Hmm." Deng Yuxiang responded in a low voice.

Killing the enemy with her own hands did indeed make her feel a bit more refreshed.

But thinking of Captain Sun, whose life was uncertain, her mood became heavy again.

Lu Ran suddenly said: "Do you want me to join the squad and be with you all?"

Deng Yuxiang looked into the vast night sky, her figure darting rapidly: "You've done enough, go back and get a good rest."

The God-People Bureau hadn't issued an order to summon Lu Ran into the squad.

His appearance on the battlefield was entirely Deng Yuxiang's own decision; strictly speaking, she had already violated discipline.

Lu Ran's eyes narrowed slightly, looking through the vast night rain at the central square below.

On the rooftop of a commercial building, an illusory soul was emerging from the corpse of a Moon-Gazer.

Beside the corpse, a crying woman was kneeling, and behind her were two men standing with heads bowed in silence.

Lu Ran: "..."

At this moment, he still found it very difficult to adapt to this kind of scene.

Until the two flew past the central square, Lu Ran spoke:

"Tonight, the demons invading the city seem to have a high overall strength?"

"Not just Rain Alley, all parts of Great Xia are like this." Deng Yuxiang said softly.

"Ah?" Lu Ran turned to look at Deng Yuxiang.

Deng Yuxiang had no expression: "Since the sixth lunar month, until today, the fifteenth of the ninth month.

For three consecutive fifteenth nights, the intensity of demon invasions has been higher than the same period in previous years."

Lu Ran frowned: "Since the sixth lunar month?

In other words, it started since our batch of students worshiped the gods?"

"Hmm."

"This..." Lu Ran suddenly thought of something, "So, that's why the gods are expanding recruitment of believers?"

The God-Worshiping Ceremony was once a year.

In previous years, the proportion of students becoming believers was around 70%.

And this year, on the first day of the sixth month, the batch Lu Ran was in had nearly 90% of students become believers!

Was this a signal given by the gods to the world?

"Perhaps." Deng Yuxiang's voice grew increasingly low, holding Lu Ran and flying faster and faster.

Lu Ran couldn't help but be worried, and after a long time, he spoke again: "Sister."

"Hmm?" The silent Deng Yuxiang finally deigned to look at Lu Ran.

Lu Ran's voice was serious: "When you fight again in a while, you must adjust your mindset; Captain Sun will be fine..."

Lu Ran said a lot in one breath.

However, from the moment he said the second sentence, Deng Yuxiang hadn't heard it.

She just looked at Lu Ran quietly, looking at his eyes.

It was hard to imagine that his pair of gloomy horizontal pupils were filled with worry.

"Sister?"

"I know." Deng Yuxiang came back to her senses and responded softly.

Her stiff face was rarely softened a bit.

The fifteenth rainy night was cold and biting, full of crises.

Her patrol squad supported everywhere, having to face one cold and cruel reality after another.

Until a certain moment, even her own squad suffered heavy damage from demons.

Deng Yuxiang hadn't expected that while escorting the teenager home, she would feel a trace of warmth.

Just like before, when she came to ask for his help...

Lu Ran didn't hesitate at all, and even didn't ask anything, just saying a word "Okay."

"Hoo~~~"

Seeing the familiar Rain Alley home complex, Deng Yuxiang stabbed obliquely downward, urging:

"After you go back, stay honestly in front of the shrine, don't run around."

Lu Ran replied: "Be careful on the road, you must concentrate on the enemy!"

"Heh." Deng Yuxiang finally recovered a bit of her past style, a cold snort, and brought Lu Ran straight to the ground.

Wind and waves surged, raindrops splashed.

Lu Ran stepped barefoot on the cold stone brick ground, right in front of the window of his small bedroom.

"Go back." Deng Yuxiang let go of Lu Ran, wind and waves rising under her feet again.

"Hey, take the clothes!" Lu Ran shouted.

Deng Yuxiang didn't respond, her flight speed not decreasing in the slightest.

"No, you..." Lu Ran opened his mouth, watching her fly away.

For Deng Yuxiang, the raincoat was indeed just a decoration.

Once a Bei Feng believer started fighting, naturally they would dart through the sky, and their whole body would inevitably be soaked.

"Already two pieces." Lu Ran felt a bit helpless, turning his head to look at the window.

After that night of the fifteenth of the seventh month, he also wore her yellow raincoat home...

Lu Ran came to the window, trying to open it, but discovered a serious problem!

The window was locked from the inside.

And he had come out in a hurry, only wearing a short-sleeved shirt and shorts, and didn't bring his keys at all!

Lu Ran could grow sheep horns and smash the window directly, but...

Right, Lord Xiang Xianyang's small shrine was right next to the windowsill.

Could it help him open the window?

"Hmm..." Lu Ran fell into deep thought.

Logically speaking, the gods shouldn't be so easygoing.

It was estimated that no believer had ever dared to trouble a god to open a window or a door.

If believers dared to open their mouths...

The probability of the gods helping believers open their skulls seemed even higher?

"Meow~"

The little Li Hua suddenly jumped onto the windowsill, blinking its eyes curiously, looking at its master outside the window.

Perhaps because Lu Ran was full of killing intent, the little Li Hua turned and ran away.

Lu Ran immediately let out a sheep bleat, calling the little guy back.

"Here, right, right! Window handle!" Lu Ran pointed at the handle on the inside through the window.

"Meow~" The little Li Hua stretched out a little claw, as if wanting to fiddle with Lu Ran's fingers through the window.

Lu Ran: "..."

He was just about to give another command when he suddenly tilted his head slightly, listening intently.

A rustling sound came from obliquely behind, mixed in the rain, quite discordant.

Lu Ran leaped to the side abruptly!

"Whew~"

Several straws shot over, stabbing into the cement ground below the window.

The force was really not bad, stabbing several holes into the cement ground.

Lu Ran looked in that direction and saw a tall and thin figure.

This was a... scarecrow?

It was composed entirely of withered yellow straw, and there were traces of being tied at the joints of its limbs.

Demon Race · Straw Demon!

Its face only had a pair of eyes, with no other organs.

Quite strangely, its pair of eyeballs were pieced together from grains of rice.

The straw demon was about 1.8 meters tall, and when Lu Ran confirmed the other party's height, he almost cried!

Finally!

Finally let me see a Mist Realm demon.

The straw race was a relatively common demon, and anything under 2 meters was the Mist Realm.

This race's strength was generally not strong, and its early output means were relatively weak.

However, this race's threat was not small!

Because it was often used as a fire-starting object, harming the world.

Just like the Blood Disaster Dogs, this group of dog things, once they saw a straw demon, were even more excited than seeing a human.

That was truly...

Opening their dog mouths and spraying fire!

The straw demon would also set fires everywhere in the process of fleeing in panic.

"Whew~ whew~"

The straw demon suddenly made a 180-degree turn, and a pile of straw shot over again like flying needles.

Lu Ran sprayed mist under his feet, dodging lightly.

Battle habits made him subconsciously dig his feet into the ground and charge forward abruptly.

And it was precisely during the charge that Lu Ran suddenly realized...

He didn't bring his blade at all!

"Boom!" Lu Ran's already clenched palm slammed into the straw demon's face.

The straw demon retreated repeatedly, a pile of straw appearing out of thin air, weaving into a shield in front of it.

"Baa!!"

Lu Ran let out an angry roar, his feet collapsing.

He was like a soccer player, performing a "diving header."

That pair of thick sheep horns forcibly smashed the straw shield!

Along with it, the straw demon was also topped and flew out, smashing heavily against the wall of the residential building.

Lu Ran was about to charge forward again, but keenly sensed a trace of difference.

The straw demon's rice-grain eyes were extremely expressive, revealing a trace of horror.

Lu Ran's heart moved slightly, and energy churned in his eyes.

Immortal Technique · Immortal Pupil!

This technique could amplify the fear in the enemy's heart!

To this day, Lu Ran hadn't tested this brand-new divine technique yet.

"Rustle~"

The straw demon immediately widened its eyes, a pair of straw arms blocking in front of it, shaking its head in horror continuously.

Lu Ran walked forward slowly, his pair of horizontal pupils gloomy and cold.

The straw demon leaned against the wall, sliding to the ground.

It kept shaking its head, as if begging for something, its eyes filled with fear.

It could clearly have fled to the left or right.

However, this straw demon was scared into this state.

Seeing this scene, Lu Ran couldn't help but feel secretly happy.

The effect of Divine Technique · Immortal Pupil was really not bad?

"Hey! You... what are you doing?"

From afar, a shirtless man ran over quickly.

It was precisely the Hong Jin believer · Chen Jing who was responsible for guarding this complex tonight.

And at this moment, Chen Jing was completely confused!

What had he seen?

A demon · Straw Demon was leaning against the wall, sitting on the ground.

Its body was curled up, trembling continuously, shaking its head in horror.

And in front of the straw demon...

Stood a teenager draped in a yellow raincoat.

He blocked the demon at the foot of the wall, lowering his head, looking at the other party.

Under the raincoat hood was his gloomy face and that pair of pupils emitting an eerie luster.

Chen Jing was not feeling well at all!

He even had some trouble distinguishing who was the demon...

Brothers, two chapters today, let me rest a bit, and continue adding chapters tomorrow!
