Demon King, Don’t Run Away Chapter 1370: Unexpected discovery

After finishing the conversation with [Red Blood Rose], Yang Yu and the others took Lotkar and continued to the [Palace of History].

On the way, Yang Yu asked about a village that was destroyed by fire decades ago, and took a short detour to see it.

The village had long been reduced to ruins, and new vegetation grew out of the scorched earth, covering up the tragedy that the village had suffered.

The fire decades ago directly caused [Chaste Jasmine] to join the Curse Sect, and also caused the skill [Taunt] to disappear.

The reason why Yang Yu came here was, on the one hand, to see if any survivors would come to pay homage. If he met them, he might be able to learn the coveted [Taunt]; on the other hand, Yang Yu also tried to investigate. See if you can use the ruins to activate any tasks.

[Taunt] is only spread in this small and peaceful village, and the skill scrolls they create are basically digested internally by them.

But occasionally some skills will be circulated to the market from that village.

For example, the [Heroic Leap] that Yang Yu currently masters may have come from this village.

Stepping into the ruins, Yang Yu and the others found some melted and rusty iron blocks, and saw some grassy and obviously disturbed soil blocks.

When inquiring about this village, Yang Yu heard this information:

“In that deep mountain, there was a village that no one could see.

Suddenly one day, a burst of fire shot straight into the sky.

Some people were afraid that the flames would spread down the mountain, so they decided to go up the mountain to check.

But before he could go up the mountain, the fire was extinguished, and the matter was settled.

Many years later, the man suddenly remembered this and led a group of adventurers up the mountain and brought back a large amount of melted gold and silver.

He and the group of adventurers became rich overnight.

Later, some people also went up the mountain, but basically found nothing.

It seems that all valuable things were taken away by the first group of adventurers.

After that, no one went up the mountain again.

Who would go to such remote and extremely dangerous mountains with nothing to do? ”

Yang Yu strongly agrees with the last sentence.

When you come here, you not only have to walk a very difficult road, but you also have to deal with some extremely cruel monsters.

Returns and risks are indeed not directly proportional.

It can be inferred from the available information that this village was once protected by some kind of barrier. The people in the village should have the habit of going out to sell specialties and buy daily necessities.

It is hard to imagine that such a village, which is isolated from the rest of the world, would suffer such a disaster.

Are they guarding something and are they being targeted?

Or, there are other reasons...

Lotkar looked left and right with his keen sense of smell, but there was no smell of bones in the scorched earth. All life and bones seemed to have melted in the fire.

It's not like killing people to seize treasures, but more like completely killing people and silencing them. Even their ashes were raised.

Yang Yu realized that there must be some big secret in this, but now there is too much information missing, and Yang Yu can't even guess...

Looking left and right, Yang Yu and the others still found nothing.

It is quite time-consuming to conduct a blanket search.

Is there a way to find clues quickly and without wasting time?

Of course!

Yang Yu threw a shovel to Ias,

"Ias, just dig around and have a look."

Ias rolled her eyes at Yang Yu, and she knew this would be the result.

I had no choice but to pick up the shovel and dig casually.

Ias dug several holes, but found nothing.

When she was digging the tenth hole, she also encountered a black stone.

The stone was very hard and Ias couldn't shake it. It was time-consuming and laborious to dig it out, so Ias decided to change places and continue digging.

At this moment, Lotkar leaned against the edge of the pit and sniffed the stone that Ias touched,

"Yang Yu, I've made a discovery! Although this looks like a stone, it doesn't smell like a stone at all. It's a man-made thing."

Yang Yu took Bai Jin and the others close to the pit dug by Ias. Bai Jin used magic power to carefully explore the inside of the stone.

"Nothing special, it feels like an extremely ordinary stone..."

Lotkar suggested: "With our current strength, cutting the stone is not a problem. Whether it is my wrong judgment or not, we can see what is inside."

Yang Yu agreed with Lotkar, what if the skill scroll of [Taunt] was sealed in this stone?

Putting on the [Wheel of Reversal], Yang Yu smashed the stone in one go.

What is disappointing is that there is neither a [taunt] skill scroll nor any equipment or props, only a very ordinary notebook lying quietly.

There is also a lock on the notebook.

Whose diary?

Who in the right mind keeps a diary?

There was nothing like a key around the gravel. Yang Yu used a knife to cut the lock of the diary, but found that the lock of the diary was extremely strong and the book cover was also extremely tough.

There is no other way, Yang Yu can only insert the knife into the book page, start from where the notes are bound, the knife clicks, cuts the pages from the notebook, and snaps down, except for the book cover and lock, all the parts fall off In the hands of Yang Yu.

When he opened the diary and looked at it, Yang Yu's eyes widened immediately. The words written in the diary were not the words of this world, but the words of Yang Yu's original world.

The identity of the owner of the diary is self-evident.

The diary is all text, with no pictures, and the writing is quite dense. There are at least more than 1,500 words written on one page.

Just reading through the diary takes a lot of time, not to mention that the densely packed text is like ants, making it very difficult to read.

After rummaging around for a while and confirming that there was nothing else, Yang Yu decided to take Lotkar and continue to the [Palace of History] while reading the diary.

In the next few days, Yang Yu will hold the diary and stare at it word by word whenever he has time to prevent missing any details.

As Yang Yu expected, this diary came from the last "player", and it was a "civilian" player like him.

At first, the civilian player was full of confidence in defeating the Demon King.

Later on, the civilian player encountered, "It is extremely difficult to improve civilian attributes, and the more he gets around, the more he becomes a locksmith", "Even though he was so well prepared, he still got kicked to the ground", "Using potions" Overdose, the effect of the medicine will be greatly reduced" and other frustrations, and finally chose to destroy it.

It’s not like that civilian player has never tried to make a comeback and regain his passion for fighting against the Demon King.

After the Demon King invaded, the magic power of this world began to increase significantly, and many people except him received a large increase.

So that person thought, could he defeat the Demon King by relying on strategy and tactics instead of relying on his own hard power?

The player just did what he said, relying on the popularity accumulated over the past few years, he summoned a death squad, tried every means to send them to the demon world, let them cause trouble behind the demon king, and sent a military team behind enemy lines to tear apart the demon's logistics. , making the war a mess.
