Old Zhao has always been the most eccentric one, adhering to the principle of eating first and worrying later about whether it tastes good or not, and occasionally making the astonishing statement, "There's no time, so let's just have this one."
But this time, Zhao Manyan stood up straight, his eyes fixed on his nose and mouth, not looking to the side.
Jiang Feng picked up the wine pot, her beautiful eyes lit up, and without caring about her image, she drank directly from the spout.
After finishing his drink, he let out a satisfied burp and then cheerfully let out a "ring~~~~" sound, handing control back to Lü Yi.
"What kind of wine is this? I feel that Jiang Feng's flame energy has increased quite a bit." Lü Yi was somewhat surprised.
There's no way she wouldn't have heard of something this good!
"They're worthless, they're all from our own farm," Xu Fang said modestly, silencing Mo Fan who wanted to speak.
Where did the wine come from?
It's very simple, in short: Little Flame Princess pulled it.
—To be more precise, Little Flame Princess is currently in her growth period, and her flame energy is extremely unstable.
Thinking that good things shouldn't be wasted, Xu Fang carried the alligator wine pot to the door.
Mo Fan was having a major headache over the damage caused by Xiao Yan Ji's inability to control her flames and the resulting compensation.
The two hit it off immediately, and Xiao Yanji's fire ability became a top-quality ingredient for brewing wine. Mo Fan drank it and said it was delicious.
“Good stuff, you can send more if you have any more.” Lü Yi forced a smile: “Come in.”
Xu Fang carried fruit and milk into the house, and Chen Ying served tea to everyone.
"You're here for the Demon Crown too?" Chen Ying asked.
"Yeah, we thought we had exclusive information, but who knew that when we arrived in Yantai, the streets were full of hunters and hotel prices had tripled!" Mo Fan complained.
"Then you can stay with me and Grandma. I'll go and tidy up for you. Just put your things in the living room."
Chenying was very happy; it had indeed been a long time since anyone had come to see her.
Although she lived a comfortable life here, seeing her grandmother and her mother who looked like her grandmother every day, she was somewhat lonely and had no friends her own age.
Compared to the last time we met, Chenying's demeanor has changed a lot.
The arrogance of a chosen one is gone, replaced by a serene tranquility.
She looks more attractive than before.
"Actually, we came here for other reasons. Demon Crown is just something we did on the side to earn some extra money," Zhao Manyan said.
Zhao Manyan had a clever plan in mind.
While a demon crown worth 100,000 is indeed tempting, it's nothing compared to a totem.
If other totem beasts are found, their symbolic vessels will be released with even greater power.
He had already confirmed this with Baxia.
“Aunt, you’ve lived here for so long, have you ever seen this pattern before?” Zhao Manyan said, handing the totem pattern that Xu Fang and Mo Fan had deduced to Lü Yi.
Lu Yi slowly opened his eyelids and lazily scanned the image.
jump!
Like a zombie bursting out of a coffin, Lü Yi suddenly sat up straight.
It was as if an extremely shocking memory was flooding into her mind, and her cloudy eyes trembled violently!
The look in his eyes was so obvious that everyone saw it.
Zhao Manyan hurriedly asked, "Aunt, have you met her before?"
It's like searching high and low without finding it, only to have it come to you effortlessly...
"Never seen it before." Lü Yi coldly uttered these words, turned around and went back to her room, leaving everyone looking at each other in bewilderment.
"Grandma..." Chenying advised, "If you know anything, just tell them. They're not bad people."
"Your mom is sleepy and has gone to sleep." Lü Yi closed her eyes, not intending to say another word.
Left with no other choice, Chenying had to leave the room and tidy up everyone's guest rooms.
"It's alright if the old man doesn't say anything; we were the ones who went looking for him ourselves," Xu Fang reassured him. "At least we can be sure it's in Yantai now, right?"
Chen Ying said apologetically, "I'm so sorry... Anyway, just tell me what you need and I'll do my best to help you."
“Alright, then we won’t stand on ceremony,” Xu Fang said with a smile.
Chenying smiled and said, "That's for the best."
······
Yantai, Kunyu Mountain.
This famous mountain range is divided in two by a security barrier, with the inner Kunyu Mountain belonging to the government.
Due to its suitable climate and environment, many rare plants and medicinal herbs grow here, and a considerable share of the country's healing medicines come from Kunyu Mountain.
Waikunyu Mountain, however, is dangerous; it's definitely a mountain range infested with demons.
Not only are there numerous demons, but what's even more terrifying is that a fearsome beast king, no less powerful than the Silver Sky Lord, dwells here!
Fortunately, the Beast King did not show obvious aggression, otherwise Yantai would have become a military fortress like Biyi City sooner or later, and there would be no prosperous economy as it is today.
"stop!"
Just as they were saying this, their car was stopped by a military magistrate.
"Passage is prohibited here." The military magistrate was young, but his attitude was very firm.
"What the hell? This isn't a military restricted area!" Zhao Manyan exclaimed.
"You're hunter mages, right? There's a license plate restriction today, so come early tomorrow," the military mage said.
"Limited license plate restrictions?"
Not to mention Zhao Manyan, who was so stupid, even Lingling was stunned for a moment, and even doubted that she had heard correctly.
I've really learned something new today. I've heard of vehicle restrictions and tourism restrictions, but I've never heard of monster hunting restrictions before!
Chapter 390 Ha, they're all scumbags!
In the past, vehicle restrictions were implemented to alleviate traffic congestion and control environmental pollution.
In this life, the reason for restricting demon hunting is also to maintain social order.
The demons of Outer Kunyu Mountain don't cause much trouble for humans, but the magic hunters love to explore their territory.
Especially after the bounty for the Demon Crown was announced, the number of teams coming to explore the mountain was enormous.
Hunter mages are different from military mages; they'll do anything for a bounty.
Putting aside everything else, just look at the data from the Pharmacists Association in recent days to see that drugs like hypnosis and venom are selling out!
Is this okay?
“There are too many hunter mages. If they anger that monarch demon, and the sea monster and the sea monster are flanking them from both sides, Yantai will be in danger!” the military mage said.
“You’ve misunderstood. We’re not hunter mages,” Xu Fang said, taking out his identification from his pocket.
The military magistrate took the identification, glanced at it, and was immediately taken aback. He instinctively stood up straight and said, "Greetings, Commander!"
Military Intelligence Bureau!
I never expected that this overly young blond youth was actually a member of the Military Intelligence Bureau!
The military magistrate had no doubt that the document was forged, not to mention the complicated anti-counterfeiting features on it.
Tell me, does anyone have the guts to do this?
Forging military mage credentials carries a penalty no less severe than the Magic Association's Mage Convention!
—No matter the difficulties or reasons, it is absolutely unacceptable!
"We've been commissioned by our superiors to search for something in the Outer Kunyu Mountains," Xu Fang said. "You can report it, but we need to go in now."
"Yes!"
The military magistrate made way for them, and added a reminder: "You all must be careful, the strength of a monarch-level demon is not to be underestimated!"
"understood."
Xu Fang nodded with a smile.
A monarch-level demon?
There's no need to worry. Judging by the timeline, this monarch-level demon has long since died. The authorities know this, and it has even been leaked through certain channels.
The authorities wanted to use these hunters to thoroughly clear out the Waikunyu Mountains and eventually bring this treasure land under Anjie's control.
—After all, not every place can afford to be so extravagant as to use the essence of the earth.
People are always like that; the more restrictions there are on entry, the more tempted those hunter mages become, and the more numerous and stronger the teams that come.
They found the treasure, and the authorities got a clean Kunyu Mountain – that's a win-win situation, a huge win!
After Xu Fang left, the military strategist immediately reported to his superiors.
The message was passed down through the ranks and soon reached Nie Lengshan, the local military magistrate and a veteran member of the Kuomintang's secret service.
"Xu Fang?"
Upon hearing the name, Nie Lengshan was initially taken aback, but then a strong interest immediately appeared on his face.
He also pays attention to the battle between the Nationalist and Nationalist governments, with Xu Fang being his most watched contestant.
Especially in the decisive game against Greece, when Greek star player Carlos blocked Xu Fang, Xu Fang defeated him in an instant.
Many rumors circulate online, with some saying that Xu Fang used light magic, ice magic, or even poison.
However, only Nie Lengshan, who was also a sound mage, could see that Xu Fang had clearly used a powerful sound magic!
"Is Xu Fang also here to find the Demon Crown? Then I'd like to meet him."
Nie Lengshan was ordered to participate in the campaign to suppress the mountain people, who often lived around the purple linden trees that produced demon crowns.
This time I will have the opportunity to meet Xu Fang.
