Chapter 558

"Is this some kind of spiritual magic?"

Rin touched his chin, quite surprised.

Xiye's eyes narrowed slightly: "Brother, why don't you leave it to Lady Eve, she should be able to do something about it."

"Um?"

Hearing this, Lin suddenly remembered that his sister-in-law was a spiritual mage herself.

However, it doesn't stand out in the environment and has never used magic.

"Okay, then I'll leave it to Sister Xiye."

"Be sure not to be so polite to me in the future."

After looking up and down at the dog-eared girl with a righteous expression, Rin rolled his eyes.

"In that case, you're welcome to press me. After that, we will simply start taking the initiative to deal with the challengers and seal the victory!"

Xiye is so powerful, one person is like a thousand troops, it's hard not to make people want to hug her.

Rin suddenly felt that her previous caution was unnecessary.

In hide-and-seek or something like that, if you just knock out all your opponents, wouldn't you win?

Chapter 87: Demon King makes new achievements again?

It was still late at night, and it took a total of three hours from the discovery of the orcs to the end of the battle.

Just after the battle, the retired personal guards... to be precise, they are now Rin's mercenaries, and they are cleaning the battlefield.

The noise caused by the battle here is actually not much, but it will inevitably attract other challengers, especially the "ghost" team.

Before, Rin would have withdrawn after the fight.

But now, after directly assessing Xiye's combat effectiveness, he was completely uncowardly.

What does it mean to be cautious?

He even wanted to pay a little in advance.

So Rin approached Xiye and asked seriously: "Sister Xiye, do you need to replenish your magic power?"

Xiye felt the magic power in her body and shook her head.

"It's okay, it's only dropped by about one percent."

Rin was taken aback, as if facing a formidable enemy, and quickly pulled Xiye away.

"It's actually dropped so much! That's no good. We're going to face a big battle soon, and I still expect you to fight one against a hundred!"

In the dream, Xiye was just a simple fool, and had never understood Lin's good (dangerous) and bitter (evil) intentions.

She even made some calculations in her mind and replied in a factual tone.

"A hundred people is no problem, a thousand people may be more troublesome. Turning on the sword energy to protect the body will consume some magic power."

Look at this tone, there is absolutely no show off or pride at all. If anyone else said it, it would be a bit deserving of a beating.

Xiye's loyal look was very convincing.

but! That's not what Rin wanted to say at all.

"I have a way to help you replenish your magic power so that you can cope with it..."

Before she finished speaking, Xiye suddenly looked wary.

Not facing Rin, but looking in another direction.

"No, there's also a strange smell. It's so light that you can hardly smell it."

"???"

Rin also quickly threw the waste out of his head and subconsciously shrugged his nose.

Nothing could be smelled in the air except the lingering smell of blood.

"Like...fire refines oil?"

Xiye analyzed the undetectable smell and her expression changed slightly.

"Brother, be careful."

The explanation of the term "Fire Refining Oil" also appeared in Rin's mind, and he immediately frowned and grabbed Elise who was still arguing with Emilia.

"Run, stupid cat! Run away from me all!"

As soon as he finished speaking, an explosion suddenly sounded from below the ground.

Lin subconsciously protected the silly roe deer and was about to lie on the ground when she suddenly realized something was wrong.

Why is this explosion so small? Like exploding a firecracker?

When I turned around to look, I didn't see any fire. The thunder was not loud and the raindrops were even lighter.

"What's going on? Isn't it a magic bomb?"

Fire-refined oil is one of the important materials for refining magic bombs in this world.

As an alchemical product, its only use is various magic explosives.

As I said before, in terms of technology, this world is still lagging behind with muskets and artillery.

Magic bombs are quite expensive and very powerful.

A standard bomb the size of a grenade is equivalent to detonating 20 grenades at the same time, which can completely destroy a two-story bungalow.

But this firecracker...

Rin was a little confused, and was about to check what was going on around him, but saw a dark thing trotting towards this side under the afterglow of the light.

The mercenaries quickly became vigilant and quickly lit the lights in front of the dark thing.

A fox the size of a kitten walked slowly with something in its mouth.

Seeing Rin, the little fox's eyes brightened obviously.

He sped up and ran to Rin, placing the small tube in his mouth on the ground. There were three of them.

After shouting "嘤嘤嘤嘤" a few times as if to take credit, the little fox suddenly jumped from Elise's feet to her head before she recovered.

No one knows why it is a fox and is more sensitive than a cat.

Elise Da Mao was attacked and subconsciously got up from Rin's arms.

The little fox also took the opportunity to jump into Rin's arms and successfully occupied it.

"What's this?"

Rin stared curiously at the three small transparent tubes containing fiery red crystals.

Emilia and Elise didn't know each other, and even Xiye didn't know anything about them.

Fortunately, those mercenaries had been by Eve's side before, and they were well-informed about this thing, so they stood up and explained it to everyone.

"This is the detonator of the magic bomb. Without it, other substances in the bomb will not react. Only the fire-refined oil will explode."

"So what we just heard..."

Rin was still a little confused and had no idea what was going on.

The little fox raised his head triumphantly and cast a disgusted look at Emilia and Elise respectively.

The meaning is obvious.

These two idiots combined don't have a claw like mine, let alone intelligence.

"Search and see what's going on." Rin suggested.

Under the protection of Xiye, he searched around and finally stopped at the mouth of the opened well.

At this time, even he smelled a strong smell, like paint.

The manhole cover had been opened, and the smell of sewer mixed with the smell of paint was even more unpleasant.

Let Emilia and Elise wait above, while Rin, Yuye and the two mercenaries enter the sewer from the ladder.

Xiye locked on to the smell and turned back in the direction they originally came from.

After not walking far, they saw three corpses lying in the same clothes as the dead soldiers who assassinated Lin before.

Under the feet of the three of them, there was a cracked object that looked like a black Rubik's Cube. The middle was empty, and the fire oil inside had been burned out.

"The middle is where the squib is placed, because the magic bomb will explode after being shaken for a period of time. Normally, for safety reasons, the squib is not placed."

The mercenary explained: "The detonating tube will only be put in when it is needed."

Xiye checked the three corpses and found that the three of them had committed suicide by taking poison.

Before he died, he still had shame and shame on his face.

Rin could almost guess what was going on.

Well, the fox version of the devil wandered around and found the crime scene. Before they could react, he snatched away... or maybe he stole the squib.

In the end, these dead soldiers could not complete their mission and failed in such a humiliating way. Knowing that they would be executed if they returned, they simply committed suicide.

Fortunately, the Demon King can always play an unexpected role at critical moments.

Rin kissed the little fox and was about to praise him when he heard the mercenary click his tongue twice.

"Even if there is a squib, this bomb can't explode."

He took the cracked bomb and casually broke it in half, then raised it so that Yuye and Rin could take a closer look.

"Here... and here, the materials are all fake and must have been fooled by the treacherous alchemist."

Rin was speechless again and pinched the little fox's cheek.

This guy had dissatisfaction written all over his face, and he kept staring.

Its credit was actually robbed by luck!

Leaving the sewer with Yuye, Rin was about to explain to the people above what happened.

There was a roar of a steam engine, and not long after, a white classic car stopped in front of Lin.

Eve got out of the car, grabbed her skirt and rushed forward.

"Brother-in-law! I'm here to save you!"

Chapter 88 Is he mentally ill?

"Sister, you are late, the assassins have been..."

Elise led her up, but before she could finish her words, she was pulled by Eve.

"There's a bomb! Come with me quickly! Everyone else should leave as well."

Eve was so anxious that her mouth was about to bubble as she opened her mouth to order.

Rin quickly stopped her: "No, the bomb crisis has passed."

As he said that, he looked up and down at Eve with a somewhat complicated expression.

I really didn't expect that Eve, who was usually smart and cautious, would not even care about her own safety when she heard that he and Elise were in danger. She had no sense of calmness and chose to risk herself.

It didn't matter that the latter was her biological sister, but when she came, she called her brother-in-law, which was obviously directed at Rin.

The emotion is self-evident.

Rin was a little touched, and said to herself that if she could restrain herself from the reality and stop being so perverted every day, she wouldn't be able to do it.

"The crisis is over?"

Eve's suspicious eyes fell on Xiye.

Xiye nodded and told the general story of what happened.

After hearing this, Eve patted her chest and breathed a sigh of relief.

"I was scared to death. Fortunately, my brother-in-law and sister are fine."

Emilia glanced at her briefly and quickly looked away.
