The abandoned mine of Nolan's underground dwarves.
Now this mine has been transformed into a transfer station for the Demon World.
After Joshua applied for the relevant procedures to the Nolan Law Enforcement Department, and after relying on some connections, this place also became a legal organization.
"It feels like it's completely turned into a warehouse."
Joshua walked into this huge void, and the interior of the void was filled with neat shelves.
There is absolutely no messy scene when Joshua was secretly supplying food to the demon world at first.
"His Royal Highness Joshua."
Zenas is the manager here, guarding the resources acquired by the Keria Chamber of Commerce, and transporting them to the Demon World every once in a while.
"Xenus, I have a task to entrust to you."
Just as Joshua walked in front of Zenas, he saw a little girl hiding behind him, who was looking at Joshua with vigilant eyes.
Judging from the attire on her body, she should be a villager in the border village of Nolan. Zenas has been staying in that village for a while and doesn't know what to do.
"Please instruct Your Highness."
Zenas hadn't received instructions for Joshua's mission for a long time since Joshua kept this sinful demon.
"For a more complicated task, you may have to leave Nolan for a while." Joshua said.
"Leave Nolan?!"
When the little girl behind Zenas heard this, she instantly became alert.
"Uh... what should she be called?"
Joshua also noticed the distressed expression on Zenas' face, and went straight to Zenas's side to look at the little girl and ask.
"Elena! Ten years old!"
Before Zenas could speak, she said her name first, and she was very imposing.
"His Royal Highness Qiao Xiu, I am very sorry, I will send this child back to the village."
Zenas picked up the little girl hiding behind him and carried her on his shoulders when she struggled in vain.
"Isn't it good? Now even little human girls are not afraid of you."
At this moment, Joshua saw an embarrassed expression on Zenas' face. This stereotyped sinful demon rarely showed such a rich expression.
"I won't interfere with your relationship with your friends, but you must complete the next task you entrust."
Qiao Xiu raised the suitcase with the blockade inscription engraved on his hand, and shook it in front of the evil demon.
"Send this suitcase to Frostwolf City in the extreme north of the Land of Frost. After arriving at the periphery of Frostwolf City, notify me by text message, and I will tell you what to do next."
"The Land of Frost..."
Zenas had no concept of countries in the human world before, but after living in Nolan for so long, under the baptism of explosive data from the caster forum, he also had a specific concept of how distant the country of Frost was.
"With your ability, it will take about a week to arrive through Farosi's portal."
Qiao Xiu put the suitcase in his hand on the ground. After entering the correct inscription to open it, he took out a paper map and a transparent crystal ball.
"There is no satellite navigation in this world. We can only use this ancient method. The location of Frostwolf City is marked on the map. This crystal ball can help you determine the direction. Just input magic power into it."
Qiao Xiu really couldn't find a more suitable courier than the sinful demon. Their ability to travel through time and space allows them to easily cross dangerous areas and deliver items to their employers in the fastest way.
After finishing his preparations before leaving, Joshua noticed that the little girl on Zenas' shoulders was struggling and said something like "let me down".
"If the girl's parents agree, you can take her with you. Of course, remind me in advance that the climate in the Land of Frost is not as good as Nolan's, and it is in frost and snow all year round." Qiao Xiu said.
Joshua's words seemed to make the little girl's struggle even more intense.
"His Royal Highness Josh." Zenas was silent for a few seconds and then said, "Her parents are gone."
"Is that so? Then you buy her some clothes and take her directly to the Land of Frost as a tour."
Qiao Xiu did not continue to tangle on this topic, all the way to the deepest part of the void, where some boxed goods were neatly piled up.
"These are delivered by the Prophet." Zenas came to Joshua's side and said, "Every afternoon, the humans from the owl's nest will transport these goods away."
"A courier from the alchemy workshop?"
Joshua picked up one of the wooden boxes, and on the wooden box Joshua saw an interesting signature "The Man in Red".
Did the most stubborn sage among the five sages also choose to compromise? This is good news for Joshua.
"After you leave, I will send another person to take care of this place." Qiao Xiu threw the suitcase in his hand directly to Zenas and said, "This cross-border express is related to the future of the Demon World and the relationship between the Kingdom of Frost, absolutely not Allow failure."
"As ordered."
Zenas took the suitcase in Joshua's hand, shredded the space in front of him, and walked straight into the portal.
…
In the residence of the Serpent of Yevrke.
The transparent glass fell on the ground and shattered, accompanied by the sound of the glass shattering and a woman's angry voice.
"How many times have I said it! These songs don't work at all! Koya! Get my sword!"
"But sister!"
The archer looked at the angry woman in front of him and felt a little helpless for a while.
The woman's strength is far greater than his, and just a simple wave of his hand brought a shock that made him unable to stand still.
This near out of control situation continued until Reyek's figure appeared in the room.
The head of the regiment instantly controlled the woman's movements and stunned her instantly when she couldn't resist.
"Captain, Miss Tailin's songs don't seem to work for my sister." The archer looked at the unconscious woman worriedly.
As a member of the Serpent of Yevrk, she is also one of the infected people affected by the gray fog.
"Have you read the book "Diary of an Inquisitor of Heresy"?" Reyek said carefully, placing the unconscious woman on the bed.
"What is that?" asked the archer.
"Do not move a book in the library. In reality, you only need ten silver coins to buy the first volume."
Reyek threw a heavy diary into the archer's hand and said.
"For those affected by the gray fog, the life force of the world tree and the singing of the elves are one way to heal, and the other way is to let the infected person try to think about things that make her happy."
"Pleasant thing." The archer looked at the woman in the regiment's arms, and the expression on his face suddenly became very bitter when he remembered something: "In this state, it is impossible for my sister to continue to fight on the front line with monsters. …”
His sister is a veritable fighting maniac, and the only thing that makes her feel happy must be the feeling of the blade piercing the flesh of the prey.
"Hulis also likes to drink and sing by the bonfire," Reyek said, putting the woman on the bed.
"And barbecue..." The archer looked at the sleeping woman on the bed, and his memory seemed to go back to a certain time in the past. "Although I can't appreciate the folk songs of your hometown, my sister seems to like it."
"Her condition won't last long, and the same goes for everyone else."
Reyek smoothed the woman's wrinkled forehead with his big hand, and then took out a sheet of music that Joshua had given him earlier.
"Maybe this is the only way until the source of the potion is known."
