The Lazy Demon King Definitely Won’t Meet the Retired Sword Saint – Chapter 453

Chapter: Chapter 457

Perhaps it was Leticia’s words that truly convinced Linglong, as she raised no objections to Leticia’s request to accompany her during the remaining time. However, during training, the girl was clearly absent-minded.

Seeing the Dragon Girl, who no longer cared about training, Leticia sighed. It would be strange indeed if anything could be achieved in such a state.

“Alright, alright, that’s enough for today. It’s getting late, time for dinner.” She wasn’t a demon, so if Linglong didn’t want to train, then they wouldn’t. There would be plenty of time for training in the future.

When the words “eating dinner” were heard, the person happiest was not Linglong, but Miss Bai Ling, who had been acting as a background prop and buff machine all along.

Raising her hands high, the invincible Sword Saint happily shouted, “Hooray!”

Besides being close to Leticia, only eating could improve her mood.

“Is eating the only thing left in your head?”

“No, I still have you in my head.”

“Don’t, I’m getting goosebumps.” Leticia crossed her arms and shivered. This Miss Bai was increasingly fond of saying sweet nothings, popping out with one from time to time, which was really hard for the pure-hearted little Leticia to accept.

“I thought you would like this sort of thing.” Miss Bai, the instigator, wore a sly smile, clearly doing it on purpose.

After saying this, Bai Ling immediately jumped forward a few steps. Based on her understanding of Leticia, the black-haired girl would surely explode next.

“Stop right there, if you dare, don’t run, watch me beat you to death!”

As expected, the wooden stick that Leticia had been holding in her hand turned into a black shadow and flesh flew directly towards Bai Ling.

Whoosh!

With a perfect backbend, Bai Ling dodged the wooden stick aimed at her head. She stood up again and pretended to be scared, “If you hit my face, your girlfriend will be disfigured.”

As soon as the words fell, a cry of surprise came from behind her, followed by the sound of the wooden stick hitting her forehead and the thud of a body falling to the ground.

It seemed that some unlucky fellow with not-so-good luck had been accidentally injured.

Turning her head, a girl with white dog ears was lying face down on the ground. A slight bulge could be vaguely seen on her little head, and the wooden stick that Leticia had just thrown lay beside the girl. It was obvious at a glance what had happened.

“Yinga!!!” Leticia let out a grief-stricken roar and slid dramatically towards Yinga.

Who knew how she managed to slide tens of meters on the grass? Perhaps it was some kind of magic?

“Leti…” Yinga looked up, her big eyes already filled with tears, about to overflow at any moment. “Did I do something wrong?”

Why else would she get hit with a stick as soon as she arrived here? And the stick hit her head precisely.

When Yinga saw the black shadow flying towards her head, it was too late. The wooden stick was too fast for her to even react. Yinga’s head took a heavy blow.

After being hit by the stick, Yinga’s mind went blank. She didn’t even know when she had fallen to the ground!

“No, it’s not your fault, it’s that Miss Bai’s fault!” Leticia held Yinga’s small hand, her eyes red. “Don’t worry, I’ll avenge you.”

“Ah?”

“My friend, I will miss you forever.”

“Wait, I’m not dead yet!”

Perhaps to prove she was still alive, Yinga jumped up from the ground and declared seriously that she wasn’t so fragile as to die from being hit by a stick.

“Oh, then I won’t avenge you.”

“So that stick was thrown by you, and you’re avenging her by avenging yourself?” Bai Ling walked to Leticia’s side and tapped her head lightly, exasperated with the girl’s antics.

“Then if you didn’t dodge, Yinga wouldn’t have gotten hurt. Ultimately, it’s your fault.” When it came to shifting blame, Leticia was a professional.

“Hiss…” Bai Ling was truly amazed by this ability to twist logic.

When Leticia threw aside all pretense of dignity and became unreasonable, she was truly invincible. After all, this girl’s whole body was soft, but her mouth was very stubborn.

To soften that mouth, only a more physical approach would work.

However, with so many people watching, Miss Bai didn’t want to demonstrate how to soften Leticia’s mouth in public.

Helplessly, she cleared her throat and put the issue aside for the moment. “Yinga, did you come here for something?”

Yinga, who had been training by Leticia’s side for a long time, immediately shook off her distressed state. Although her voice seemed to still carry a faint sob, she finally managed to explain the matter clearly.

“That dog-headed merchant has disappeared. All those watching him have fainted. Doctors are still doing tests, but they have preliminarily ruled out poison.”

After the battle with the Steel Gun Tribe, for reasons that could not be explained, Leticia ordered that the dog-headed merchant be watched carefully, intending to torture him for a few days before prying some secrets out of him.

Since hypnosis couldn’t be used, they could only resort to this less efficient method.

As for torture… well, there was no justification for that. This dog-headed merchant had no apparent connection to the horned merchant of the Steel Gun Tribe. Leticia only suspected that these merchants belonged to the same organization, but she had no real evidence.

Besides, even if torture were used, it might not yield any information. It was better to place him under house arrest and question him indirectly.

Unfortunately, Leticia couldn’t find this dog-headed merchant’s dream. Otherwise, she could have easily entered his dream and staged a magical version of Inception. No one could keep secrets in their dreams, Leticia declared!

“Was he rescued? Or did he leave on his own?” As soon as it came to business, Leticia put away her flippant demeanor. She was a completely different person from moments ago, making it hard to believe that this calm and intelligent girl was the goofball who was just playing around.

This was Leticia’s talent. She could seamlessly switch between her casual and work modes, even switching modes several times within a single sentence.

It made one suspect if this Demon Lord really had schizophrenia.

“Most likely, he left on his own. The place where he was under house arrest was quite far from the core area of the tribe, with only patrolling guards nearby. He must have figured out the guards’ patrol patterns and found an opportunity to escape.”

“What should we do? Should we send people to chase him?” Linglong sought help from Leticia. After recovering, Leticia had been so busy that she had dumped all the work back onto Linglong, so now she had to make decisions again.

“Chase? Do you think you can still catch him?” Leticia showed no signs of disappointment, as if the dog-headed merchant’s escape was something she had expected. “If he ran, then he ran. Knowing that they have something to hide is good enough.”

After all, these merchants were not any significant势力. Especially after the war ended, their most proud products suddenly lost their market. Escaping secretly at this time was quite a normal choice.

Speaking of merchants, Leticia remembered something else. “Did you go to see that black spear?”

After the Lion Chieftain turned to ashes, his two pieces of equipment were dropped. One was a full suit of armor, and the other was a black long spear with a ferocious appearance. Leticia hadn’t paid much attention to these two items at the time and had directly ordered the cavalry of the Bone Wing Tribe to bring them back.

There were so many other things happening afterwards that Leticia gradually forgot about these two items until now when she remembered that the dead Lion Chieftain had dropped equipment.

Linglong was more reliable. After knowing that the Lion Chieftain’s equipment had been dropped, she had asked Xiao Mi to study it. In the past few days, she had mostly figured out the general effects of these two pieces of equipment.

“These two pieces of equipment should be derivative products of divine blood. Unlike divine blood, which is a one-time consumable, these two pieces of equipment can be put away at any time.” Linglong told Leticia all of Xiao Mi’s test results.

Divine blood was a one-way road once consumed. The increase in combat power was higher than that of the two weapons, but after the burst, it led to death, without exception.

But the two weapons were different. They could also increase the user’s strength, although the effect was not as good as divine blood. Their advantage was that they could be put away at any time, and the damage to oneself was also smaller.

“In a full combat state, an ordinary warrior could use the long spear for about two hours. After two hours, the user of the long spear would die from exhaustion of life force.”

“The armor’s increase in combat power is not high and its effect is completely covered by the long spear, but it has a passive effect that can defend against attacks. After testing, it can even completely block my flame breath, but to completely block it, the armor’s wearer would also have to pay half their life.”

These two weapons and divine blood belonged to the same type of things, all of which exchanged powerful strength for one’s own life force. However, the two weapons were more flexible, while divine blood was more overbearing. In essence, they were exactly the same.

“If it can block your flame breath, what about the divine blood bomb?” Leticia remembered Linglong’s ultimate weapon.

Upon hearing the words “divine blood bomb,” a trace of heartache flashed in Linglong’s eyes. “I can’t bear to use it. Every bit of divine blood I have is one less bit. How could I use it for something like this?”

In fact, after waking up, she had gone to find that dog-headed merchant to buy some divine blood. But for some reason, the dog-headed merchant had uncharacteristically stated that he had no stock.

Even though Linglong offered higher prices several times, the merchant insisted that he had no stock. It seemed that this guy was telling the truth.

Then Linglong re-imposed house arrest on him, pretending to be furious.

This extremely realistic performance had indeed fooled the dog-headed merchant. He had thought all along that Linglong was locking him up because she couldn’t buy the divine blood she wanted. If he hadn’t received the emergency evacuation signal, he would have really wanted to stay in the Bone Wing Tribe forever.

“That merchant said he had no extra divine blood. I offered higher prices several times, but he stuck to his statement, and I feel like he’s telling the truth.”

Whether it was true or not, the divine blood Linglong had left was very little. It was truly a case of using one bit less. How could she waste it on testing the performance of weapons?

It wasn’t even enough to blow people up!

“No extra divine blood… This is interesting. Just a few days ago, he was patting his chest and assuring us that he had as much as we needed, and now he’s saying he’s out of stock.” Leticia’s expression became interested. She didn’t think this dog-headed merchant was lying. These small merchants at the bottom were probably just following orders from above.

Initially, they received news that the quantity of goods was sufficient, so naturally, they could guarantee as much as needed. And these days, they had received news that the quantity of goods was insufficient, so they couldn’t sell anything.

This meant that something had happened within the organization to which these merchants belonged in recent days, causing these merchants to lose their supply.

Unfortunately, at present, Leticia only knew that these merchants were related to gods. She knew nothing else about this organization and didn’t know if it was internal power struggles or other matters that had led to these changes.

Forget it, these guys were not important. As long as the gods behind them had any brains, they wouldn’t come to cause trouble for her.

“We’ll mind our own business, and they’ll mind theirs,” was the best choice.

“I think there’s something fishy going on, but these guys are too well-hidden. I can’t dig up their secrets.” Linglong sniffed and smelled the aroma of meat. Unknowingly, they had arrived near the mess hall.

The flat-stomached Miss Bai had already rushed into her battlefield with shining eyes. Leticia looked at the rushing white girl, and the corner of her mouth couldn’t help but twitch. If this girl wasn’t so hasty, she would indeed be a perfect goddess.

However, this girl’s image was ruined at least three times a day.

Even the other beastmen of the Bone Wing Tribe knew that this aloof rabbit-eared girl was the most approachable and also the most terrifying when eating.

Normally, Bai Ling was like a lofty fairy. Only by standing at the same height as her could Leticia elicit expressions other than indifference. But when eating, this young lady descended to earth, and her unrestrained eating style truly made the beastmen feel a sense of closeness.

They all ate like this, so this young lady was indeed a heroine among the beastmen!

Moreover, the combined appetite of several of them couldn’t match Bai Ling alone, which made these simple-minded beastmen admire her even more.

Miss Bai was so strong, it must be because she ate a lot. Eating a lot made her stronger!

Unknowingly, these beastmen began to imitate Bai Ling and began to overeat. For a while, the logistics department of the Bone Wing Tribe couldn’t quite figure out why the logistical expenses had become so high.
