Chapter 64 - Is this... the end?

When Vivian fell to the ground from the air, the blood-red moon in the sky also disappeared. Without the suppression of the blood-red moon's light, the surrounding undead armors suddenly became active again, and the sound of metal friction was heard. Lily quickly raised her giant brick to prepare for the battle, but the first one to take action was the demon who almost scared everyone to death: this five-meter-tall terrifying creature raised its hand and grabbed the air, and the sea of fire and thick clouds in the sky disappeared in the blink of an eye. At the same time, Vivian also felt that the demonic power filling the surroundings was rapidly weakening, and finally even the energy reaction of the demon stone slowly disappeared.

The undead armor in the underground palace was originally activated by the stimulation of the demon stone. Now the stimulation source was interrupted, so of course the command was lost. In addition, the Leta runes on these armors were over-burned by the stimulation of the demon power just now, and basically damaged. Now even the demon power disappeared, these guards completely lost power, all the armors made a rapid tremor at the same time, and then fell straight to the ground and did not move.

The undead guards who made Kevin and the other three headaches were solved just like this.

The huge demon nodded, seeming satisfied with his move, and then he lay on the ground again and tried to get level with Kevin (but due to the huge height difference, this was almost impossible). He looked at the metal plate in his hand, which seemed to be engraved with pinyin symbols: "Uh... Ni... Nishiwo's release... Fang Dongma?"

After saying this, the demon began to look at Kevin expectantly. Kevin's mind was still a mess at this time. The weirdness of the situation in front of him almost made him lose the ability to think. It was not until he felt a burning sensation in his head that he realized: the demon was spewing sparks from his mouth when he spoke, and Kevin's hair was set on fire!

"Oh, hot, hot, hot..." Kevin slapped his head in a panic. Fortunately, he slapped off the sparks before his hair really caught fire. Then he jumped several steps to the side before the demon spoke again, "Don't say anything yet. I'm worried about your accent." Then he took out the data terminal from his pocket tremblingly: "Discus, what's going on?!" "You lack enough respect for this machine, especially you gave it a very insulting nickname," the data terminal seemed to like answering in Kevin's mind, and now it doesn't even print subtitles, "But this machine is still happy to tell you: this is the situation." Kevin looked up at the terrible creature with flames and magma burning all over his body, and swallowed his saliva: "Do you have a demon language translation package?" The data terminal hummed: "You finally remembered the correct way to use this machine now? What about when you used this machine to hit people before?" Kevin held the data terminal up and down: "If you keep talking nonsense, I will tie a stick to you, and you will be a hammer for the rest of your life." "..." Kevin successfully got the support of the demon language translation, and he could finally communicate smoothly with the huge creature in front of him (although the other party seemed to have studied Chinese for a period of time): "So... are you the new tenant I'm looking for?"

The demon was immediately surprised, and a stream of magma spurted out of his biceps: "How can you be a demon... Oh, yes, you are an inquisitor, and nothing you do is strange. So you are my landlord? Why are you here so late?"

Kevin was completely confused. Not only did he not expect that the new tenant arranged by Raven 12345 would be such a shocking one, but he also did not expect that the conversation between him and a demon would take place in such an atmosphere! Of course, what he is more curious about now is: why was this demon summoned by a demon stone that was sealed hundreds of years ago? Didn't Raven 12345 say that this new tenant had just arrived?

"When did you come?" Kevin was still carefully observing the demon's movements while speaking. Even if the other party was easy to talk to, he had to be extremely vigilant against it. After all, this is a creature that is described as ferocious and evil in any story. In the cultural system of all mankind, the position of the demon in the final boss ranking list is not comparable to that of werewolves and vampires. But then again, why would the woman who claims to be a goddess in Raven 12345 arrange for him to receive a demon? !

"Me? I have been here for half a month. I have been sleeping most of the time. I just sensed that there is movement outside." The demon said with sparks. Kevin had to jump around while listening to him to prevent himself from being set on fire. But this demon was very honest. He had to look into the other party's eyes when talking. Kevin felt like he was talking to a steel furnace.

"Half a month?" Kevin was surprised. He pointed at the Demon Stone not far away. "This stone has been sealed in the castle for hundreds of years! You have only been here for half a month? Isn't this stone yours?"

"No," the demon shook his head and threw out a large flame. "I don't know who it belongs to. I have never seen such a thing, but I found it very suitable as a power medium, so I connected my power with the stone. I am sleeping in a different space and need a doorbell."

Kevin thought about how much battle the three of them had experienced, how much noise there was in the underground palace, and how much impact the Demon Stone had received before finally summoning the real owner. He immediately muttered: "Your doorbell is not very sensitive. It only started ringing after the house collapsed."

The demon looked bulky, but his hearing was surprisingly sharp. He grinned: "This thing is quite effective, but I slept deeply. In fact, it started as soon as you approached it, and it took more than an hour to wake me up."

Kevin subconsciously took a few steps back to avoid the flames spewed out by the demon, with a wonderful expression on his face: "This stone is not yours? Then its original owner..."

"Ownerless things, the first to come gets it," the rumbling voice of the demon made Kevin choke the second half of his sentence, and then the huge creature looked up and looked around, "This place is severely damaged, it shouldn't be me who smashed it?"

 

Kevin waved his hand at the demon weakly: "Wait a minute, I have to sort it out."

 

Then Kevin simply sat on the ground, regardless of the fact that there was a boss-level creature next to him that could have several sequels in any movie, but he was thinking about it himself.

There is no doubt about the identity of this demon. The data terminal will not lie, and the demon has no need to lie to himself. To be honest, this kind of weird task arranged by Raven 12345 will not be interfered with by anyone (Kevin believes that there is nothing worth being plotted against), so it seems that this is his new tenant.

It is true that the demon stone from hundreds of years ago is sealed in the underground palace of the Yofold Castle, but the owner of this demon stone has nothing to do with the whole incident. The unlucky guy who lost his mobile phone can be thrown into the garbage dump of history, no matter who he is.

And the big demon in front of him came to the Yofold Castle half a month ago. He went to the wrong place and seemed to be unfamiliar with the place, so he simply opened a hidden space here and settled down, and then "borrowed" the demon stone under the castle, on the grounds that it was used as a doorbell. Kevin guessed that the function of this "doorbell" was to sense the inspector who came to respond.

In that case... the defense mechanism in the underground palace was activated, the undead guards awakened, Angus was blocked by a rune wall, etc. The real cause of the incident was actually Kevin himself!

It was because the stone sensed that Kevin was nearby that the power left by the demon inside it began to move, and then triggered a series of problems later.

There are still many things that are unclear about the whole process, but the general process should be like this.

"What the hell is this..." Kevin figured it all out, and suddenly felt like crying. Then he suddenly remembered that there was still a key question that he hadn't figured out, "Wait! Raven 12345 said that when I met the new tenant, there would be mutual induction. What about induction?"

"There is induction," the data terminal took the initiative to speak, "Didn't you feel it the moment you met this big guy just now?"

"What did you feel?"

"A 'boom' in my head."

Kevin was stunned: "Just that one moment? That's induction?!"

"What else do you want?" The data terminal was very arrogant, "At the beginning, considering that you are slow-witted, the general voice prompts and vibration modes may not attract your attention at the critical moment, so this machine specially arranged the loudest reminder service for you..."

Kevin: "...You will die if you explain it in advance, right?!"
