Chapter 644 The City of Miracles (1)

There is the Fortress of Atonement.

Looking at the huge dark shadows under the sunlight in the distance, Thor couldn't help but gasp. He stretched out his hand and pressed it on his chest, feeling that he had never been so nervous. After receiving the invitation from Rhode, the members of the Demon Hunting Team finally decided to come to the Land of Atonement to try their luck. At the beginning, everything went very smoothly. They took the badges contained in the letter and quickly found a wide carriage. Although they had received it along the way

After several interrogations, everyone was able to pass the test safely after showing the badge. In this way, few people have doubted the possibility that the invitation letter was a trap designed by others for their own happiness or by their enemies. However, because of this, as the land of atonement approaches, the semi-demons seem to be even more nervous, and even a few people who are always very lively on weekdays are now anxious and extremely quiet.

Looking at the silent companion in the carriage, Thor shook his head. He also understood their thoughts, and in fact he was the same. Along the way, it can prove that the mercenary lord's attitude is indeed serious, but can they really take on this important task? What if their performance cannot satisfy the lord? At that time, will they be expelled by the other party?

Can't fail.

Thinking of this, Thor clenched his fists. This was their first, and perhaps the last chance.

At this moment, the carriage stopped, and then an old man's voice rang out.

"At this time, dear guests, please get off the bus. According to the rules here, carriages are not allowed to enter the fortress unless there is a special permission."

Hearing the old man's words, Thor pulled up his cloak and then made a gesture to his companion. Although Rhodes had already explained in his letter that they would not be treated specially in the fortress, after living outside for a long time, the semi-demons would not lose their vigilance because of just a few words. They put on their cloaks to cover their faces. Then they jumped out of the carriage.

"The Holy Soul is on..."

After jumping out of the carriage, when the half-demons saw the tall and mighty fortress in front of them, many people gasped and muttered in a low voice. Although they had seen many cities and fortresses along the way, this was the first time they had seen a fortress like the Land of Atonement. The tall and thick walls and the arrow tower that reached the sky seemed to be huge. The black sword was inserted straight on the ground, which was like a heart-shaking feeling. Just standing here made everyone feel difficult to breathe. They had never seen such a fortress with such a momentum, especially when they looked up, when they saw the high walls of the fortress merged with the surrounding mountains and extended to both sides, there was even a deterrent force that was deterred.

It was afternoon now, and there were not many people outside the fortress. The strange dress of the Demon Hunting Team naturally attracted everyone's attention. Just as they looked at the fortress in front of them curiously, two or three fully armed mercenaries came over from the gate. They held the hilt of the sword at their waists and looked vigilantly at these strange guys who wrapped themselves tightly.

"Who are you? What's the matter with the fortress?"

Seeing these mercenaries coming, the members of the Demon Hunting Team were in a panic. Thor waved his hand to calm down. Then he pulled the edge of his hood and covered his face in it. Then he stepped forward with great strides. But after seeing these mercenaries clearly, Thor couldn't help but be stunned.

As a semi-demon, Thor is naturally more sensitive to magic power than ordinary people. He immediately noticed that these mercenaries had traces of magic equipment everywhere. The badges and swords they wore on their chests emitted a faint breath of magic power, and even the leather armor of these mercenaries could be seen vaguely. This surprised Thor couldn't help but secretly. If the equipment of these mercenaries was messy, it could be regarded as their own things. However, the magic fluctuations from these mercenaries came from the mercenaries. However, the magic fluctuations from the mercenaries were vague.

It is very similar, and they are all emitted from the same style of equipment props, so it can only be said that these magical equipment are specially prepared. This really surprised Thor. He has been wandering outside for many years and is naturally experienced. With Thor's experience, not to mention mercenaries, even real private soldiers may not be able to have so many magical equipment on their bodies! Only those real elite legions have so many standard magical equipment. But now, in this fortress, are even the mercenaries guarding the gate treated so well?

Thinking of this, Thor couldn't help but feel a little frightened, but he forced himself to calm down, then stepped forward to the other side and took out the badge from his arms.

"We are not suspicious people. We came here by the invitation of Lord Lord."

"The president's invitation?"

Hearing Thor's answer, the mercenary in the lead was stunned, but he quickly narrowed his eyes, took the badge from Thor's hand, checked it carefully, and then nodded. "Well... this seems to be right, but..." When he said this, the mercenary looked at Thor curiously and looked at the people of the Demon Hunting Team wrapped in a black cloak behind him, and couldn't help but frown.

"Why are you all so sneaky? What's the point of shame? Let's see what you look like! Not everyone can enter the fortress. You don't even show your face. Who knows who you are!"

"this……………"

Hearing the mercenary's words, Thor couldn't help but feel helpless. He coughed. While he was considering whether to take a risk, suddenly, a voice that was so calm that it was almost cold came from behind the mercenaries.

"What happened?"

"Ah, it's Lord Agave."

Hearing the voice, the mercenaries immediately showed a look of awe. They quickly stood attentively, then turned their heads to look at the place where the sound came from.

"That's right. These people said they were invited by the president to come to the fortress, but they all packed themselves so tightly that they didn't look like good people..."

Seeing someone walking out of the door, Thor and the other half-demons couldn't help but look at the mercenaries, and then they all stood there in amazement.

I saw a girl walking leisurely out of the shadow in the fortress gate. She had a beautiful face, white skin, and light blue eyes that showed a faint and calm look. If she only looked at her upper body, then she was undoubtedly a very cute lady. But after seeing her lower body, even those half-demons were speechless, and she didn't know what to say when facing the scene in front of her.

Countless slippery tentacles swung below the girl's waist. They slid lightly, and led the girl's body to move forward quietly. From time to time, you could see water droplets sliding down from above. The girl's hair did not droop like the hair of ordinary people, but kept curling and rolling. Even under the sunlight, you could clearly see the washing plate on the back of the tiny tentacles.

This, what is this?!

Logically speaking, as semi-demons who are often feared, Thor and others should not have much resistance to semi-demon creatures. But in fact, when these poor semi-demons saw Agavi, many of them were still scared to retreat several steps. This is no wonder, although semi-demons are different from ordinary people, there are very few places where they are different from humans, at most they are just horns on their foreheads or have legs that look like sheep's hooves. But at present, this girl can almost say that she can't tell anything like a human except that face!

But the mercenaries seemed to be completely different from the girl who suddenly appeared. They just saluted each other respectfully, and then handed the badge in their hands. Then the girl, known as Agave, stretched out her right hand, gently took the badge from the mercenary's hand, and observed it carefully. Then the girl "floated" to Thor. Her face was calm and indifferent. Even as the girl approached, Thor felt a cold winter air coming towards him, passing through his cloak and armor. This made the strong semi-demonics shudder.

"It's everyone from the Demon Hunting Team. The master has been waiting for you for a long time. Please come with me."

As he said that, Agave lowered his hand, and a tentacle poked out from the girl's side, easily took the badge in her hand, and handed it back to Thor. Faced with the tentacle that reached out to him, Thor couldn't help but take a step back, and then he realized that his actions seemed a bit embarrassing... So Thor gritted his teeth, put down the hood that covered his face, then reached out and took the badge back.

"Thank you, this lady."

“No need to be polite.”

Even though Thor showed his true face in front of him, Agavi's expression was still as calm as ever, as if there was a plain stone statue in front of her. The mercenaries only glanced at Thor's true face in curiosity, then discussed a few more words, then turned around and returned to their post. They did not scream in fear as Thor and others imagined, and then drew out their long sword to surround themselves and others. They had been experiencing the scene in many places before.

It was not until this time that many half-demons were relieved. They carefully and carefully dragged their hoods and followed Agavi into the fortress. What surprised them was that although there were not many people in the fortress, few people paid attention to them. Although many people turned their heads curiously and looked at them a few times when they passed by, they would soon turn their heads and no longer pay attention to them. This made some half-demons happy and lost. This was the first time they showed up in a crowded place, but they did not attract any attention. Although this was the treatment these half-demons had always longed for, when their expectations became reality, these half-demons felt a little complicated and didn't know how to describe it at all.

Of course, they would not think that the people here are so stupid that they have never seen the devil. In fact, some people showed a look of fear and anxiety after seeing them. For the semi-demons, this is the most common rhythm in their daily lives. However, even these people turned around and ran away without being scared. At most, they subconsciously kept a distance from them, but they still did whatever they should do.

Just as his companions were curiously looking at the fortress and the residents here, Thor was also carefully collecting and exploring everything here. He now realized that the reason why he and his people did not attract other people's attention was simply because there were too many "abnormal" existences in this fortress. Just now, he had seen more than a dozen "people" who were very similar to Agave in front of him, and whether they were the mercenaries or residents, they were already used to those "people"...

But who are they?

Thor took his eyes from a "girl" standing next to the statue in the square, stretched out his tentacles to wipe the appearance of the statue, and stared at Agave in front of him with some confusion. He was sure that these people had never heard of them before, nor had they seen anything similar. Looking at these girls' small and cute appearance and their sharp ears, they were somewhat similar to elves, but... Is there such a race among elves?

Just when Thor was confused, Agavi in ​​front of him suddenly stopped, and then her cold and calm voice came again.

“We’re here.”
