I Really Am Not The Lord of Demon

Chapter 3 Magical Leaves

The bookstore business is business as usual.

All morning, there was not a single customer.

Ling Ping lay on the counter and slept all morning.

When I woke up, I realized that it was two o'clock in the afternoon.

"Another boring day!" He rubbed his temples, opened the drawer of the counter, and saw a delicate short knife inside, and a bag of things beside the short knife.

"It doesn't seem to be tea?" Lingping picked it up, put it in front of him, and looked at it carefully.

I didn't look at it carefully last night, so I just put it away.

Only now did I realize that what was in the bag was not tea at all.

Seems to be the leaves of some kind of plant?

Out of curiosity, Lingping poured out a piece, held it in his hand, and observed it.

"Strange..." The leaf in his hand has a very special structure. From the outside, it seems to be a plant leaf with many serrations on the edge, which was dried and baked.

It looks shriveled, but it feels very tactile when you hold it.

Even Ling Ping'an could feel that there was still a little bit of temperature in the shriveled withered leaves.

He carefully opened the curled leaves with his fingers, and a seductive fragrance immediately hit his nostrils.

"Some kind of spice?" Ling Ping put the leaf back into the bag.

After all, it was someone else's thing, and he didn't want to break it.

Otherwise, what should he do?

……………………………………

The sun sets in the west.

Night is coming.

Unlike during the day, the world at night is more dangerous.

After the cataclysm, half of the world's population has become monsters and evil spirits.

This makes the night a nightmare for mankind.

Except for the safe area, other areas are red dangerous areas at night.

Sometimes, some areas even turn into an extremely dangerous crimson, and a black symbol of disaster.

According to the standards issued by the United Nations National Security Organization.

Security levels around the world are divided into: very safe (dark green), safe (green), dangerous (light red), extremely dangerous (dark red), disaster (black), and the highest level of corruption (dark black).

East of the city, is a dangerous area.

Except for the safe area, all other areas are dangerous areas, and civilians are not allowed to enter.

By night, the danger level will increase in most areas.

Even armies and witchers are easily afraid to haunt dangerous areas late at night.

Because, at night, the ability and activity of ghosts and evil spirits will be greatly improved.

Moreover, those low-level ghosts and evil spirits who were suppressed by the sunlight during the day and did not dare to appear, would appear in groups.

But Han Li was sitting on the roof of the East District, which was clearly marked as extremely dangerous.

A pair of slender and toned legs dangling on the 20-story roof balcony.

It used to be an upscale neighborhood in the city center.

Not far away are the ruins of Eastside University.

During the Cataclysm, fierce battles took place here.

An entire regiment of soldiers was killed here in order to cover the retreat of women, children and students.

Therefore, in the community, you can still see the temporary trenches and fortresses built by those respectable soldiers that day.

Tanks that have already been covered with rust have their muzzles aimed at the underground parking lot of the community.

The garden of the community is full of craters and scattered bullet casings.

In the south and north of the community, all buildings have become rubble.

That was the most dangerous time, the damage caused by the napalm incendiary bombs dropped by the bombers taking off from the east airport.

Night falls gradually.

Among the rubble of the collapsed building, one by one, figures began to climb out.

Like spiders, they have eight legs and crawl like lizards.

Their skin and bones are as hard as steel.

Their speed can exceed 200 kilometers per hour.

Their minions are extremely sharp, and their blood can corrode most armors.

Therefore, the United Nations National Security Organization named them 'Nerubi'.

It is one of the most feared types of B-class ghosts.

Because they live in groups.

Moreover, a nerubian group often has hundreds of nerubians.

At most, humans have recorded clusters of tens of thousands of Nerubians.

And there used to be thousands of spider demons here.

So, a mechanized armor regiment was torn apart by them here.

But now, the number of this colony has been reduced to less than a hundred.

Don't be happy!

Because if the individuals in the ghost community start to decrease, it can only indicate one problem - they are expanding.

Han Li looked at the nerubians who were constantly approaching the building.

The corners of his mouth curled up slightly in a nice arc.

The crimson book held on the book kept flipping, and the babble-like murmur echoed in her ears.

"Abyss general class, monster genus, insect family, human face spider!"

This is the true origin and name of the nerubian!

Their weakest point is the third cervical vertebra under the neck!

Han Li jumped from the roof.

The black tight-fitting combat uniform set off her beautiful figure, falling like a Valkyrie.

Spiritual power bloomed from her hands, turning her hands into two sharp blades like blades.

"Death!" Han Li had already locked onto the neck of a human-faced spider in the air. As soon as he landed, he used the bouncing force of the landing to jump lightly and landed on its back. His blade-like left hand accurately slashed on the ground. On the cervical vertebrae of the human face spider.

Click!

Like a toppled domino, the huge human-faced spider slumped to the ground before it could even let out a howl, as if someone had twisted all the screws out of it.

With a bang, the ghost that could resist a grenade head-on shattered to the ground.

Dark green blood and internal organs emitting all kinds of stench flowed all over the place.

Erosion the ground into a deep pit.

………………………………

Boring afternoon, boring game.

Kneeling five hands.

Ling Ping felt that her emotions were a little impetuous.

"The handle is either five shooters, five mages, five junglers..."

"Bronze segment, it's really a hell on earth!"

Abandoning the phone in his hand, he rubbed his sore temples. The sequelae from the night before had not subsided.

so……

"It seems that there is no update today..."

Turn on the TV, and on the TV, it is the familiar soap opera at 3 o'clock in the afternoon.

The length of the family, the disputes between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, see Ling Ping and sleepy.

Subconsciously, he picked up the teacup and started making tea.

When the sound of the water dispenser sounded, the pleasant fragrance filled the mouth and nose. Just smelling this fragrance, the whole person was instantly refreshed. It seemed that the exhaustion of last night and the emptiness of the present were all swept away.

"Why is it so fragrant?" Lingping lowered his head.

I saw something floating in the teacup.

It was a few golden-yellow leaves.

Full and bright.

"Did you make the wrong tea?" Ling Ping'an was stunned before he remembered that he had just confused the tea leaves in the drawer and used the bag of leaves that the girl had pledged here last night.

He picked up a leaf from the teacup, and the unknown leaf soaked in boiling water was golden-yellow, like gold. When he squeezed it lightly, juice overflowed from it, and the fragrance filled his nose.

Lingping tentatively dipped a little of the golden liquid on the leaves with his fingers, put it in his mouth, and took a sip: "It's really sweet!"

The taste buds in the mouth were immediately completely conquered by this sweet and fragrant taste.

Ling Ping swears that he has never had such a delicious drink!

…………………………

The whispers in my ears are getting more and more.

Han Li shook his head to wake himself up a little.

She took a breath and kicked away the head of a human-faced spider under her feet.

Then, she stepped forward and walked all the way into the dark underground parking lot.

Taking the flashlight out of his body, Han Li turned on the power and pointed it at the parking lot where no one had visited for decades.

The luxury cars that have been abandoned for an unknown period of time are crowded together.

Many vehicles have rolled over.

Inside the long-decayed body, there are white bones.

Han Li bypassed these obstacles and continued to move forward.

Then, she saw a scene that shocked her inexplicably.

More than a dozen skeletons of soldiers in military uniforms were scattered in a bunker ahead.

Several heavy machine guns, aimed at the front.

The bunker was littered with machine gun cartridge casings.

On the stone pillars and walls of the parking lot in front of the bunker, all the gun holes are densely packed.

Han Li walked over, looked at the skeleton that was obviously an officer, and picked up a photo from under him that had turned yellow and discolored, and could not be seen at all, buried in the rotting soil.

However, in the photo, you can still see the silhouettes of two brightly smiling couples snuggling together.

Under the photo, there is also a nameplate.

Steel recorded the officer's name and unit number.

Yu Aiguo, captain of the 7th Company of the 3rd Rapid Response Battalion of the 5th Airborne Division of the People's Army.

This was the number of the first army that rushed to Donglin City to rescue during the Great Cataclysm.

Looking at the nameplate and photos in his hand, Han Li scolded softly, "This damn world!"

So, she squatted down and found pieces of nameplates from the bones and mud.

Then put them away.

Han Li continued to move forward and walked to the depths of the underground parking lot, in front of a huge collapsed hole.

The flashlight shines down, and in the dark underground, the grasses are densely scattered.

That is necromantic grass.

…………………………

"This is too powerful!" Ling Ping'an muttered while sitting on the counter, holding the teacup that had been drank and licked clean.

He now feels like his energy is endless.

The whole body is full of strength, maybe he can hit ten.

More importantly, his eyesight has also improved a lot.

Take off your glasses and you can see clearly!

"What the hell are you?" He grabbed the bag of dried leaves, raised his head back, and recalled the woman from last night: "Could it be that these leaves are secretly developed by a large company for the nobility?"

If you think about it, there is such a possibility.

After all, the nobles of the Federal Empire have been playing very much since ancient times.

The romantic figures of the Wei and Jin Dynasties flew up with five stones scattered. Since modern times, the nobles of the Federal Empire have not lost much to the Wei and Jin figures.

Thinking of this, he quietly put away the bag of dried leaves.

"Can't touch it again!"

"I can't afford something so expensive!"
