The Unemployed Demon Lord

"Tsk, it's so troublesome, where can I get a carriage?"

Merlin was talking to himself, and couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. His pockets were relatively poor, and it seemed that he couldn't afford a carriage to Denbighshire.

Merlin turned his head and looked at Hobbs next to him. This guy might be rich, and he never stopped drinking vodka all day long.

Merlin touched Hobbs' arms, and took out three betting tickets, but nothing else.

"This……"

Merlin felt more and more that he and Hobbs were really brothers and sisters, two people with the same virtues actually mixed together.

This is a bit of a headache. It takes five days to walk to Denbighshire, and it is estimated that the carriage can arrive in two days.

Merlin raised his eyelids, looked at the sky dyed red by the setting sun, and thought, whatever, go and "borrow" Alice's things to use.

After a while

Merlin threw the drunken Hobbs behind, and sat in the front driving Alice's little donkey cart.

"Mengmeng, let's go~!"

It seems that the team composed of two rubbish black irons has also set off...

◆

The second day of departure, early morning.

There was a light rain in the sky, and the distant mountains seemed to be covered with thick fog.

The road to Denbighshire, which was not easy to walk, has become muddy and slippery.

Wales, Great Britain, often rains in autumn, and the humidity is uncomfortable.

Merlin wrapped a cowhide blanket around his body to avoid getting wet from the rain and keep warm. Holding the rein in his hand, he walked slowly.

This appearance, as if he would pull out explosives from his arms at any time, and shout "Allah Barak!"

As for Hobbs next to him, he was also wrapped in a blanket, but his expression was very blank, as if he was confused about his previous behavior after drinking.

"Brother Merlin, do I... really agree to go to Denbighshire?"

"That's right, haven't you read the entrustment documents? There's also Miss Lucia's seal." Merlin replied with interest.

After Hobbs woke up and was woken up by the rain, he was a little confused by the situation in front of him. In the past, when he was drunk, someone would always take him home, but today he woke up and was directly on his way to Denbighshire. on the way.

"Really? I remember I was drunk, right? How did you agree to this commission when you were unconscious?"

"You just... nod your head and go, no matter how much you try to persuade me." Merlin said boldly.

"Oh my god!" Hobbs covered his face in disbelief, "Brother Merlin, we... we should turn around and go back right away?"

"Ah?" Merlin's eyes widened, and he asked in surprise, "We've been traveling all night, why are we going back?"

"Brother Merlin, you probably don't know yet." Hobbs said in a low voice with an ugly expression on his face, "We can't help the crisis in Denbighshire this time. Black iron adventurers like us just go and go." Sending him to death is also useful as a bait to attract the attention of the undead."

"Isn't it?" Merlin raised his eyebrows.

"Brother, you have only been an adventurer for a day, and you don't understand many of them. Although the official commissions are rich in rewards, the money is not so easy to get. The undead have exploded, and even the garrison corps are helpless. It can be seen that the number is really large. , it is better for us to hide, before long, the palace in London will send a strong man to deal with it, we should not go to die."

Hobbs had a very sad look on his face, his small eyes dodged back and forth like a thief, and he seemed really scared.

"What are you afraid of? Don't be hypocritical when I'm here, just hide behind me." Merlin patted his chest, showing no fear at all.

Merlin didn't pay attention to the mere undead. These guys summoned from hell are nothing more than resurrected.

For Merlin, hell is the grave of the losers, even if they return, they are just garbage.

What's more, the undead are lifeless guys, no matter how powerful they are, they can't renew Merlin's life and relieve the curse in his heart.

Merlin has already verified this point.

In the early years, when Merlin was the devil king, an emissary from hell visited and asked Merlin to submit to Satan, the master of hell, and become the spokesperson of hell on land.

The arrogant Merlin of course chose to ignore it, and chopped off the necromancer, but the curse in his heart did not ease at all.

At that moment, Merlin understood that the king's weapon, "Vientiane Jialuo", could only absorb life force from the living, and it had no effect on the dead.

Hobbs frowned, looked at the confident Merlin in surprise, and thought strangely in his heart.

this kid...

I'm afraid I'm not a fool, right?

((???|))

Chapter 22: Monthly Ticket Addition

Hobbs was in a very complicated mood at this moment, feeling that Merlin was dragging him to his death, why did he and his two black iron trash go to the center of the chaos?

"Wait a minute, Merlin, calm down, don't you understand undead?"

"Huh? Of course I understand, it's just that there are no intelligence guys. They have extremely high physical resistance. They can basically continue to fight without cutting off their heads and extinguishing their soul fire." Merlin smiled with a crooked mouth.

"You... you know you're still going?" Hobbs was a little hard to understand, and continued to explain, "Although ordinary undead are low-level monsters, their combat capabilities are stronger than mid-level monsters, and there are so many of them. We are going to die. ah……"

"Hobbs, don't be afraid, you've already told me you're here, so why panic?" Merlin got a little impatient.

"Can I not panic? Both of us are rubbish black irons, and we have to fight hard with the undead before the priest is in the team. Isn't that crazy?" Hobbs' face was very ugly.

"What do you want a pastor for?" Merlin asked strangely.

"The priest can disperse the souls of the dead, otherwise if we kill a dead spirit, it will come back to life soon." Hobbs felt that a team with priests is reliable, especially when killing dead spirits.

"You don't need to work so hard, you can smash the skulls of the undead and step on the fire of the soul with your feet, and you still need a priest?" Merlin smiled crookedly, feeling that Hobbs was making a fuss.

Hobbs's expression became more and more horrified. He felt that Merlin was an iron-headed kid. The strongest part of the undead was the skull. How could it be so easily broken?

"I think I'd better go back by myself..."

"Hobbs, why don't you believe me?" Merlin sighed, thinking that it would be troublesome for him to have no magic power and fighting spirit.

"Merlin, how do you make me believe you? I'm a rubbish fire magician, and you are a guy who has no magic power and fighting spirit, but only knows how to practice three-legged cat kung fu. What kind of awesome alchemy reaction can we have together?" Huo Booth is very worried about the prospect of the two teaming up. In fact, he wants to find a thigh, but he doesn't know that the thigh is next to him.

"Hobbs, can't you see that I am powerful?" Merlin said seriously.

Hobbs looked at Merlin's haggard face, the shaved floor, the messy blond hair, and the tattered sword that looked like scrap iron, as if exuding a low breath all the time, so he laughed very unkindly. There was a sound.

"Don't make trouble, brother, I like to brag like this, but we black iron adventurers are just like that, just daydream, don't take it too seriously."

Merlin pursed his lips, knowing that no matter what he said, this fellow Hobbs would not believe that he was very strong, but in order to stabilize this alcoholic and prevent him from returning to Wrexham, he had to say, "Alice and Arnold Right in front, there is the new Saint Claude in their team, if you are afraid, you can go to gain experience and get a 1000 gold coin minimum guarantee, isn't it good?"

"Emmmm..." Hobbs blinked his eyes and clapped his fists, "Yes! There is another trick, when we get to the place, we will kill two mobs together, and the experience will be over? There is a newcomer There is no danger with the holy steps next to you, you are a fool if you don’t make money~”

Merlin curled his lips, thinking that he is not a person willing to take subsistence allowances. If he gets 5000 gold coins, he can use 4999 gold coins to buy a horse betting coupon. When the time comes, he will double it by 20 times, and he will be able to turn himself around.

The nasty Merlin seemed to have forgotten to pay Alice the rent, or he didn't want to pay it at all, he just wanted to live and eat for free.

"That fellow Arnold is worthy of being the earl's son. He's so fucking rich. He can even hire a holy man. He has to go for a cheap one. Oh, it's nice to be rich..." Hobbs Suddenly remembered that Alice and Merlin had an affair, but now they teamed up with Arnold, so he comforted Merlin, "Brother, think about it, women are all eels, and Arnold is born with a halo of intelligence, basically no threat, really can't, Don't you still have a big banana?"

"I have nothing to do with Alice..." Merlin rolled his eyes, completely helpless at being misunderstood.

"Brother, don't be angry..." Hobbs patted Merlin on the shoulder, took out two bottles of wine from the back of the donkey cart, and opened the corks directly, "Come on brother, vodka."

Merlin took it, and then the two started blowing on the bottle.

"Ton ton ton ton ton ton ton... hiccup~"

Merlin's eyes were narrowed into slits. In the rainy weather with low temperature, drinking wine feels warm and super comfortable.

"drive!"

The sound of hoofbeats came from behind, and a group of teams wearing armor with rose patterns came rushing forward on tall and straight horses, pulling an extremely gorgeous carriage behind them, which seemed to be of great value.

The knight leading the white horse has piercing eyes, and he is the strongest in the team at a glance. The red cloak is raised like a banner. How can he be handsome?

Hobbs is well-informed, and he can tell who it is just by looking at the rose family crest, "Damn it, the Duke Rose of Wales is a man!?"

"Who!?" Merlin was at a loss. If you forgive him, you only know Queen Elizabeth, the ruler of the whole of Great Britain.

"The Grand Duke of Rose, the lord of Wales, has a higher status than Arnold's father Austin." Hobbs explained, and then said, "But this formation is not big enough. It must not be the Grand Duke who came in person, but his family."

"Oh..." Merlin was not very interested, and it had nothing to do with him.

The knight on the white horse took two quick steps and caught up with Merlin and the others. His eyes were quite normal at first, but when he saw the black iron adventurer certificate hanging around their necks, he immediately became contemptuous.

"You two, do you know of a quicker way to Denbighshire?"

"Master Cavalier, it is faster to turn over the Marosa Hill in front of you. There is a small road there, but it is a bit narrow. The big carriage behind you may not be able to pass it, but it will be no problem to walk down." Hobbes' Adventure He has quite a lot of experience and knows a lot of crooked ways. He deserves to be an uncle in his 30s.

"Heh, are you joking?" The white horse rider sneered.

"Well... If you don't want to go to the mainland, but autumn is the season for the burning rhino to migrate south, and it will be a little troublesome. If you want to save time, it is the fastest to cross the Marosa Mountains on foot." Hobbs felt that the other party had a temper It stinks, and the tone is a little bit cowardly.

"Do you know who is in the carriage behind?" the white horse rider asked.

"The family members of Grand Duke Rose?" Hobbs tentatively replied.

"It's the daughter of Grand Duke Rose, Miss Cecilia!" The White Horse Knight emphasized, and continued, "Do you think the daughter of Grand Duke Rose can let go of her nobility and walk on the muddy road!?"

"That...you won't die after taking two steps, so is Grand Duke Qiangwei's daughter a disabled person?" Hobbs told the truth.

"What are you talking about? How dare you insult Miss Cecilia as a disabled person, please fight me!"

The knight on the white horse whipped out his whip and came over, the sound of piercing the sky was heard, and the shadow of the black whip pierced the moist air.

Hobbs closed his eyes in fright, and covered his face so as not to be disfigured.

It's too late, it's too soon.

This sharp whip was grabbed by Merlin, no matter how hard the knight pulled it, he couldn't pull it back.

The white horse rider sat on the steed, looked down at Merlin condescendingly, and said contemptuously, "Untouchable, let go of my whip, do you want to be punished together?"

"From the very beginning, your attitude has made people inexplicably uncomfortable. You are obviously just a dog in front of a nobleman, and you are also worthy of showing off your power here? Sorry, no matter how much face your master has, it won't work with me."

Merlin yanked the whip suddenly, and the noble knight on the white horse immediately turned on his back

He fell down in embarrassment, face the ground, and took a big mouthful of mud...
