Chapter 86: The Queen's New Clothes

"Ah... comfortable."

Somewhere on the first layer of the labyrinth, at the edge of the sewer corridor, the Ayami Little Demon who pulled up his pants felt relaxed, wiping the sweat from his forehead.

The little demon race is good at everything, not only an early spellcasting unit, but also a flying unit, the only flaw is that everything is small, the person is small and the stomach is small.

He was starving from the moment he came out of the summoning circle, quickly rushed to the npc shop to buy some dry food and water, but didn't eat a few bites before he couldn't hold it anymore.

Now it seems that the endurance of this race is a big problem...

Or is it because he's not used to it? Smelling that pungent odor, the surrounding slimes moved their greenish bodies and surrounded him.

These guys are like slugs, breeding rapidly, and eating everything... even skeletons are on their menu.

If only the graveyard also raised a few!

Might as well open a toilet!

It can be considered thanks to these slimes, looking at their devouring appearance, the guilt in Ayami Little Demon's heart finally lessened a lot, and he flapped his wings and flew away from the crime scene...

Due to someone's previous example, other little demon players who had just reincarnated had all learned to be reserved, not overeating because their stomachs were empty.

By the way.

Due to their keen sense of the market, Whale Fall North and South had guessed early on that the next species in the graveyard would definitely have little demons and lizardmen, so they specially designed a batch of clothes and pants for covering the body for these two species.

Thanks to this, the first leather factory in the graveyard also seemed to have become the biggest winner of the A06 update.

Due to reliable quality and cheap price, one hundred basic clothes woven from spider silk were sold out in an instant, earning two million Nether coins!

Rounding it up, the three bosses could be considered millionaires in the game.

By the way, since the little demon is currently the unit model closest to human aesthetics among all optional units in the graveyard, even if you can't pinch faces, the randomly generated appearance is not bad, so Shark Drop Things and Whale Fall North and South immediately used the contribution points they saved on upgrading their skins.

As the first batch of players to enter the game, although they didn't level up very fast, they had Black Iron anyway, and two thousand contributions had long been saved.

【Little Late Not Full】 was the same.

However, she didn't choose reincarnation entirely because the skin was beautiful, more because the little demon had wings and could fly!

This was too surprising for her.

She couldn't wait to rush out for a stroll, to see how vast the mountains and forests outside were, and how far the boundaries of this game world were...

Looking at the noisy quality square, Shark Drop Things, who was floating in mid-air looking around, said with a look of surprise.

"Incredible... are there unexpectedly many people reincarnating this time?"

There were about thirty or forty little demons, and the number of lizardmen was almost breaking a hundred, which was not comparable to when the A05 version was updated!

But thinking about it, it makes sense.

Although the resurrection cost is high, the lizardman's attributes are super-mode, one slap can directly pat a skeleton soldier into parts! This game is actually not that easy to die as long as you are careful. Except for intentional death, the vast majority of players are relatively cautious.

"Many? I think everyone is still too conservative."

Whale Fall North and South, who was squatting on the ground, supported her chin with both hands, looking at the dense pile of bones, with a slightly regretful expression on her face.

Life-profession players are ultimately side-door, and the truly rich in this game so far are those liver-kings who have grown N livers on their bodies.

Very regrettable.

This time she still couldn't squeeze oil from them.

It seems the "Whale Shark Late" group still has to develop more interesting products.

Flapping her wings and stopping between the two, Little Late, who had gone outside for a stroll, flew back, expressing her flight experience and thoughts with endless aftertaste.

"The scenery outside is simply too beautiful, there are so many mountains and forests! This world is unimaginably large! Are you really not going to take a look outside? I can help watch the stall for a while."

Although there was still a large pile of unsold clothes on the stall, the customers who needed them had already patronized them, and I think there won't be many customers next.

Little Late secretly cheered herself up in her heart.

It's okay, it's just selling something!

Although she hadn't officially gone on stage yet, just thinking about the scene of bargaining, the social-phobic person's palms were already sweating uncontrollably.

Seeming to see her nervousness, Shark Drop Things waved her hand openly and laughed openly.

"No need, no need, Little Late already put in a lot of effort when making clothes, just leave this little thing of selling clothes to us! As for the scenery, anyway, it won't run away if it's placed there, it's the same to see it later!"

Whale Fall North and South also nodded with a smile.

"That's right, that's right, the future capital crocodile Shark Shark is accumulating her bloody primitive capital, she won't easily miss such a good money-making opportunity."

"That's right, that's right—hmm?" Shark Drop Things, who was still nodding, suddenly reacted, frowned and glared at her best friend. "You guy, you're putting things you want to do on me again!"

"No, oh," Whale Fall North and South smiled purely, but the smile hanging on her face gradually became S-like. "My dream is to become a vampire noble who keeps capital crocodiles, not to become some capital crocodile... don't you think it's very visual? The crocodile with a collar and the vampire beautiful girl leading her—"

Shark Drop Things: "Damn it! Feel like you're taking advantage of me again!"

Looking at the two who were bickering, Little Late couldn't help but show an envious expression.

Although she had long become friends with them, the feelings on the internet ultimately couldn't compare to the friendship in reality, right...

Perhaps she was too sensitive.

She tried to insert herself into their topic.

"... By the way, didn't expect little demons to be able to fly the moment they were born, I was worried about not being able to learn to fly, didn't expect it to be simpler than using magic."

Theoretically, she could already cast spells, and had memorized the incantations in the skill book as well as the strategy tips shared by the big shots.

However, until now, she still hadn't succeeded in rubbing sparks from her hands.

Shark Drop and Whale Fall looked at each other, not feeling that there was anything incredible.

"Speaking of which, were we born? Didn't we jump out of the magic circle?"

"There seem to be egg fragments on the ground, I remember little demons should be oviparous? But I don't have the memory of breaking out of the shell."

Little Late Not Full said in a low voice.

"Don't you think it's very magical? Seems like we grew up in an instant."

Shark Drop Things scratched the back of her head.

"It's okay... after all, it's a game, it's impossible to really let players role-play from infants, right? That death penalty is too heaven-defying!"

Whale Fall North and South also nodded, agreeing.

"+1, from the setting, maybe Lord Demon King used some evil ritual to accelerate the growth of little demons? Since this process doesn't need us to worry, I think it's better not to worry too much."

The corresponding maturity of little demons should be ordinary peak? It's very reasonable to use the Black Iron level, which has just mastered extraordinary power, as the "life starting point" for players after reincarnation.

Whether from the perspective of setting or from the perspective of the game's own balance, this seems to be the best strategy.

And speaking of this, I think lizardmen are also out of a similar design idea, limiting that players must have a soul level reaching Black Iron level to choose.

There is no doubt that ordinary-level lizardmen exist and occupy the vast majority in the labyrinth, it's just that players can't choose them.

Just when Whale Fall North and South fell into deep thought, a special guest flew to the stall of the three.

That was a little demon.

She was wearing a dark brown vest that was probably snatched from an adventurer, and the hem that was disproportionately long not only passed her knees, but even passed her ankles in one go.

It can be seen that she had worn this piece of clothing for a long time, and even probably wore it from birth, so that the edges of the shoulders and hem had curled and deformed, quite having the style of a mountain bandit, appearing rough and uninhibited.

However, what Whale Fall North and South cared about most wasn't this, but the green name exclusive to NPCs floating on her head—

【Envoy of the Nightmare Realm·Youxi】

As the saying goes, everyone has a love for beauty, it seems NPCs are no exception.

The three of the Whale Shark Late group looked at each other, all seeing excited expressions in each other's eyes.

Fat sheep!

Finally here!

Whale Fall North and South took the lead, with a knowledgeable and gentle smile on her pretty face, looking very reliable, making people want to hand over their wallets to her.

"Respected guest, may I ask what I can do for you?"

Youxi was startled by this voice, didn't understand what she said at first, but soon the crystal placed on the stall translated this sentence into a language she could understand.

"Help? No need... Youxi was just curious and came up to take a look."

She was originally worried about whether there was something wrong with the batch of little demon eggs that the Nightmare Realm had contributed to the graveyard before, but now it seems that the guy with a not-normal brain is only that one just now.

A 1/50 defect rate is completely acceptable for little demons.

In short, no big problem!

And so, the naturally playful and curious her was soon attracted by other things.

Picking up a fluffy piece of fabric from the stall, Youxi held it above her head and examined it for a while, her eyes full of curiosity.

"What is this? Slippery? Pumpkin?"

Looking at her wanting to stick her head in, Shark Drop Things quickly stopped her.

"This is bloomers, to prevent exposure, it's not worn like this."

Youxi tilted her head.

"Prevent exposure?"

Whale Fall North and South nodded with a smile.

"That's right! Mainly worn with a skirt, want to try it?"

Youxi still knew about skirts.

Although she hadn't worn one, occasionally there would be adventurers wearing them.

Compared to heavy plate armor, skirt armor is not only cheaper, but also lighter and more flexible, especially popular with some swordsmen.

"Ah... so that's that thing, but wouldn't it be very troublesome to fly in the sky?"

Facing the confused guest before her, Whale Fall North and South said with a smile in her eyes. "Generally speaking, this is indeed the case, but we added wire to the models sold to little demons, even if upside down, the skirt won't flip over to cover the head. Of course, besides these, we also provide other products, such as leggings with good extensibility, as well as this special silk fabric..."

As she spoke, she casually picked up a pair of black silk stockings and handed it to Youxi.

The version of this little demon special model saves materials very much, and is probably the one with the highest profit among all their products.

Feeling the soft touch and light weight, Youxi's eyes shone with excitement.

"So amazing! Is this pants?! Actually so light!"

Whale Fall North and South said with a smile.

"Accurately speaking, it's socks... want to buy it?"

"How much money!?"

"1000 Nether coins each, very cheap."

Youxi counted with her fingers, a troubled expression appeared on her face, and finally knocked on her head with her fist.

"Is nine hundred Nether coins okay?"

In that case, a cross with a release soul spell just happened to be able to exchange for one!

She also found it convenient to explain the value of this thing to Queen Xixi.

"No problem, seeing that the guest is so cute, we'll give you a discount. But compared to socks, clothes aren't this cheap."

Whale Fall nodded with a smile, then picked up a rice-white base dress from the stall.

The texture of this thing was light and airy, the size was like it had been taken off a doll. It was clear that this wasn't clothes that humans could wear. However, it was just right for little demons.

Blood-red ribbons dotted the pleated skirt edge and cuffs, outlining the silhouette of the clothes, while also adding a bit of cunning to the holy and dignified aura.

The overall feeling was like a strawberry cake placed in a dessert shop window.

By the way, this was made by Little Late herself.

"... For example, this set, it's ninety thousand Nether coins."

"So expensive!!!"

Looking at the clothes in Whale Fall's hand with wide eyes, Youxi counted with her fingers and gasped.

It's a hundred crosses!

Wait...

A hundred crosses don't seem expensive? Just when she was convincing herself, Whale Fall North and South also took advantage of the heat to continue to strike.

"After all, it's made of fine silk, don't you think this dress is like a work of art?"

"Indeed..." Youxi was still struggling, but it was clear she was already moved. "If worn on the body of Queen Xixi, it must be very beautiful!"

"If it's a gift for Queen Xixi, then this one is even more recommended!" Whale Fall North and South continued to make a supplementary cut with a smile, lowered her voice and said in a low voice, "It is said that in the distant Demon Capital of Hell, the nobles there all wear this."

Youxi raised her head in shock.

"Really? But the Demon King he..."

"Cough, the Demon King is currently on the edge of Hell anyway, wearing something too out of place wouldn't it alienate the relationship with the vassals? And you haven't seen his wardrobe, how do you know he doesn't have similar things in his wardrobe."

Whale Fall North and South coughed lightly, continued to lower her voice, and talked nonsense seriously.

"Suppose... I'm just saying suppose, if your Queen Majesty one day goes to the Demon Capital with him to attend a banquet, and doesn't even have a decent dress, wouldn't she be mocked by the nobles of the Demon Capital for not knowing any etiquette? No offense, this is just a little suggestion."

Youxi opened her mouth in shock, touched her chin and thought seriously.

"So that's it... speaking of which, Queen Majesty's wardrobe really doesn't seem to have this kind of slippery, light thing!"

Although everyday clothes were there, they were basically snatched from adventurers and shortened, the quality and so on really couldn't compare to the piece in her hand.

Looking carefully, Youxi suddenly found that the color scheme of this dress was simply tailored for their Queen Xixi!

The rice-white base just set off the fair skin and scarlet hair of that lord! Youxi touched her chin and thought, the more she thought, the brighter her eyes became, as if her noble Queen Majesty had changed into it in front of her.

"Bought! And these pants... socks! Buy them all!"

"Ooooh, guest, you really have an eye! I'll pack them for you!"

"Hahahaha! Overpraised, overpraised!"

Queen Xixi always thinks about everyone in the tribe, thinking about them whenever there is something good, and Youxi also wants to do something for her.

Now the Nightmare Realm has overcome the food crisis, and there are still quite a few savings in the graveyard, spending a little money to buy a gift to make Queen Majesty happy shouldn't be considered a waste.

I believe Queen Xixi will definitely understand her! The transaction was completed quickly.

Youxi held a large pile of clothes and flew back to the Blood Hall excitedly.

However, just as she had just passed the entrance of the hall and was about to return to the Nightmare Realm, she, who was humming a light tune, suddenly came back to her senses with a frown.

Wait—

Why would a little demon who just came out of the magic circle know these things?

And it seems she is even more eloquent than her! "Hmm?? Something's wrong!"

Suddenly, Youxi realized a possibility, her frowning face revealed a look of sudden realization, and then she giggled.

"Giggle... not worthy of being Lord Demon King, really insidious and cunning! Should Youxi expose it? Or pretend not to know?"

It's obvious! The little demon who just talked to her was actually acting according to Lord Demon King's instructions—or simply played by that lord!

Although she was used, Youxi didn't feel that Lord Demon King was bad, instead, she felt as happy as a successful prank, flying high and low in the sky.

Let him use her if he wants.

As long as it's good for Queen Xixi, she doesn't mind being used! At the entrance of the Nightmare Realm.

Looking at Youxi who came back holding a large pile of things, Mixi opened her eyes in surprise.

"Youxi? Why are you here."

Youxi proudly puffed out her chest and threw a few white socks into Mixi's hands.

"Sending Lord Demon King's gift to Queen Majesty! Mixi, come and help me move some!"

Hearing the word gift, the guilty Mixi almost didn't fall from the sky, and flapped her wings urgently to steady herself.

Looking at the sweating colleague, Youxi said suspiciously.

"What's wrong with you?"

Mixi shook her head nervously, sweat dripping from her forehead.

"No, no, no, nothing... just give the things to me, I'll pass them to Queen Majesty, you hurry back first."

Youxi: "Ah? Is that okay?"

Mixi snatched the remaining tributes without question, and said stammeringly at the same time.

"Is there no one on duty in the Blood Hall now? What if Lord Demon King has an emergency? Don't worry, I'll tell Queen Majesty it's your credit!"

"Hey, credit is a small matter, even if Youxi doesn't have any credit, she is still the servant Queen Xixi trusts the most!"

Youxi proudly puffed out her chest, patted Mixi on the shoulder who was holding a large pile of clothes, just like ordering her little brother.

"Since Mixi says so, then I'll trouble Mixi."

Mixi nodded hurriedly, and couldn't care about refuting, only urging her to return to the Nightmare Realm in a hurry.

"Hurry up, hurry up, stop talking nonsense."

On the other side, in front of the Whale Shark Late group's stall, Shark Drop Things and Whale Fall North and South were high-fiving excitedly, only Little Late had a hesitant expression on her face.

"Do we count as deceiving consumers?"

Whale Fall North and South turned back with a smile.

"How could it be? I think Little Late's craftsmanship is absolutely worth this price. If it weren't to open up the market, I would even want to sell it for 900,000 Nether coins."

"I didn't mean that... of course, I'm very happy you think so," she said halfway, suddenly sensitively thinking of things from a long time ago, and said in a low voice, "Oh by the way, about the crosstalk, I actually wanted to pay 1000 Nether coins to listen, not 10..."

Shark Drop Things was stunned for a moment, then suddenly burst into laughter.

"Hahahaha, you still remember that! Damn, this guy is a bit cute, Whale-brother, move out and live."

Whale Fall North and South also couldn't help but smile, and patted Little Late on the shoulder.

"Don't mind it, Shark-shark's Mandarin, she's already very happy that you're willing to pay to listen to her talk... look, she's laughing like a sand-ratio."

Shark Drop Things: "Damn it! Want to fight again, right!"

Although Little Shark attacked first, from the order of up and down, it was clear that Little Whale, who attacked later, had the upper hand.

From the proficiency of begging for mercy, it's not hard to see that Little Shark usually loses more and wins less in fights.

Little Late smiled embarrassedly.

She also felt that she was a bit too sensitive.

Friends shouldn't need to remember jokes for so long, right?

"Damn it! Little Late! Come and help me!!!"

"Not allowed, Little Late, wait... wait a while before intervening, soon... soon I'll win!"

Looking at the two "bats" twisting together, Little Late, who was caught in the middle, said with a bitter smile.

"You guys don't fight anymore..."

Not far away, construction team leader Arakdo, who had just come out of the construction site, saw the little demons twisting together, and a mocking sound came from his mouth unconsciously.

"Hahahaha, really shameful!"

Sure enough, cave spiders are the most loyal servants of the labyrinth! It's a pity Lord Demon King isn't here, otherwise he would definitely let that lord see this good show! But speaking of which, Lord Demon King seems to be more than just busy recently...

Thinking that Lord Demon King didn't bring him along on this patrol of the territory, Arakdo laughed and laughed, then suddenly became depressed.
