Chapter 801 Mount

While Yi Hao and Er Hao were happily chatting, Huo Ling'er, standing by the stone wall, looked at the scene before her, somewhat bewildered. She had merely gone out for her usual patrol today, and although there was a slight accident during the process, encountering that eccentric Er Hao, which delayed her a bit, but who could tell her what the current situation was? Everyone had been dismantled, not even their skins remained. And that flat-headed one over there, was that the boss? Was the lingering aroma in the air what she thought it was? She had only gone out for a patrol today, not to some distant place like the Central Continent. How had it turned into this within a single day? Huo Ling'er couldn't comprehend it. She then looked at the group of people, clad in demon skins and holding weapons, warily watching her. How had these human slaves managed this? As Huo Ling'er was still in a daze, she suddenly felt two kind gazes looking her way. Her body stiffened involuntarily, and she didn't dare to move her wings. That's right. This child named 'Er Hao' was very strong. ... After Yi Hao and Er Hao chatted briefly, they noticed the bewildered gazes of the people below the wall. Yi Hao shifted his body and introduced, "This is my brother, everyone doesn't need to worry." He then instructed, "Shan, you arrange the night watch tonight, and everyone else go to rest early." "Yes, Boss," Shan stepped forward and responded. His gaze fell on Huo Ling'er and he couldn't help but ask, "Boss, this demon..." Er Hao said indifferently, "Don't mind her, she won't dare to run." His words were spoken with absolute certainty. Hearing this, Huo Ling'er instinctively wanted to retort, but thinking of the child's methods, she couldn't even complain in her heart. The people below the wall, upon hearing this, showed expressions of realization. As expected of the boss's brother, he could subdue a demon so thoroughly. And even use it as a mount! If only they could also ride demons and fly through the sky... For a moment, a new world seemed to open up in everyone's minds. Afterwards, under Shan's arrangement, some took up the night watch, and others went to rest. Since the demons had been dealt with, there were plenty of empty stone houses within the stone walls. The group gathered and discussed briefly. "Let's sleep in one room, it'll be more convenient if anything happens." "So many rooms... I don't want to squeeze together again." "Hehe... Me too, I want to try sleeping in those big rooms." Finally having this opportunity, someone always wanted to give it a try. Shan listened for a while and then spoke, "Those who want to sleep in one room, stand by the stone pot. Those who want to find their own rooms to sleep in, stand by the main gate." After everyone had lined up, Shan spoke again, "Then that's settled, go find your places to sleep." Among the group choosing to sleep together, someone worriedly said, "What if a demon suddenly returns tonight?" Shan glanced in the direction where Yi Hao and Er Hao had left. "With Boss and his brother here, it should be fine. Everyone get a good night's sleep tonight. We'll think about other things tomorrow." Hearing this, everyone looked at Huo Ling'er, who was still standing on the wall, in unison. They nodded in agreement in their hearts. Huo Ling'er: "???" Why are you staring at me? Why are you staring at me? Then, everyone withdrew their gazes and went to find their stone houses. Whether sleeping alone or together, they all sought out large and spacious rooms. In the stone houses of some large demons, beautiful crystals were hung on the walls and ceilings, emitting a warm blue light. It is worth mentioning that during this process, no one went into the largest and most exquisite stone house. In their opinion, the boss had contributed the most and was the most powerful, so he naturally deserved to live in the best. ... In the demon boss's room. Processed crystals were hung on the walls. These crystals were less for warmth and more for decoration. Upon entering, one could feel a large flow of energy, colorful and vibrant. "This room is really... quite dazzling," Er Hao remarked, looking around the demon boss's room. Yi Hao entered afterwards and closed the stone house door, "This is my first time here too." The stone house was equipped with tables, chairs, and stone bowls, all of extra-large size. Just looking at these furnishings, it was not difficult to guess the owner's size. "What's going on here? Tell me about it," Er Hao said curiously after a tour. "A group of demons raised humans to mine crystals, because these crystals contain strange energy..." Yi Hao sat on the extra-large stone table, swinging his legs. He briefly recounted the events of the past period. Then he raised his right hand, circulated the spiritual energy within him, and it appeared in his palm. "I made an attempt." Er Hao looked at the spiritual energy in his hand, his eyes changing slightly. He deduced the origin of the spiritual energy. After a moment, his eyes returned to normal, and he said to Yi Hao, "It's enough for those people. They can't handle any more than this with their current bodies." Yi Hao nodded in agreement, the spiritual energy circulating freely at his fingertips, like a small sprite. "Yes, their meridians and acupoints are very complete. But they themselves have no idea how to use it... I just helped them develop it a bit. It's quite useful. I just don't know if this approach carries any risk for this world." Er Hao put his hands on his hips, very calmly about it, "If there are problems in the future, we'll come back and solve them!" Although they were sent to take over and manage this world, they had only just begun to interact with it. Everything could only be explored and advanced through their own efforts. Suddenly, he thought of something, his expression becoming somewhat excited, "I also made an attempt!" Er Hao raised his left hand, and the lightning element within his body began to circulate. Zzzt— Zzzt— A ball of lightning appeared in his hand, with small lightning bolts erupting at the edges like explosions. With a thought from Er Hao, the ball of lightning transformed into a lightning whip, coiling around him. "I tried it earlier when I saw lightning in the sky," Er Hao said with a smile, his face showing the pure joy that only children possess. Inside the room, the brothers chatted and laughed, sharing their experiences and discoveries from this period, as if they had simply gone on separate vacations. Outside the house— The moment the ball of lightning appeared, Huo Ling'er, who was boredly scratching the stone on the wall, suddenly felt a jolt all over her body. Her feathers puffed up. The terrifying scene of her claws being entangled by the lightning whip and constantly pulled back from the sky resurfaced in her mind. Frightened, she quickly looked around, but saw no lightning. What was that just now?! Huo Ling'er shivered her wings uncomfortably, trying to smooth her puffed-up feathers. Clang! Her movement startled the person on night watch nearby. They instinctively tightened their grip on their weapon. Although the boss's brother had said that this demon was here and there was nothing to worry about, after being enslaved by demons for so long, it was impossible for them not to be wary of a demon standing alive right there. Therefore, the two night watchmen specifically guarded Huo Ling'er's vicinity, their nerves taut, and couldn't help but glance at her from time to time. —Can demons really be tamed? —What kind of strength is needed to make a demon a mount? As they were cautiously pondering, suddenly, with a "poof," several fiery red feathers scattered into the air. The two night watchmen almost cried out. "You, what are you doing?!"
