Chapter 114 Houses
Ye Xi picked up a mimic beast like a puppy and asked it in the face.
The mimic beast was well aware of how dangerous the guy in front of it was. He didn't know if he could survive, but if he disobeyed, he would definitely die.
"I'll admit it, I'll admit it all, but you have to promise to let us go."
"What? You were the ones who attacked first, and you're still trying to make excuses?"
Ye Xi did not hesitate to tear off a piece of flesh from the mimic beast in front of it, and the beast howled in pain the next second.
What's even more outrageous is that Ye Xi put the torn meat directly into his mouth and started chewing it.
This scene made Charles feel nauseous. He couldn't imagine what the sticky juice would taste like when chewed in his mouth.
"Wait! It's those animals!"
"animal?"
The mimic beast in front of Ye Xi screamed, as if it was really scared.
"We were originally ordered by the Demon Lord to complete his assassination order against you."
"But ever since you entered the territory of the Demon Lord Gluttony, we suspected you would not survive, yet now you appear here in good health."
"The other demon kings were very unhappy and even doubted whether you were powerful enough to be trampled under the feet of the demon kings."
Logically speaking, the Demon King is the pinnacle of the demon race and has almost no natural enemies or troubles.
But Ye Xi also understood that Beelzebub as a demon king was different from the demon king he had in mind.
Although she was a demon king, she did not show the aura and strength that a demon king should have, but seemed to be idling around.
What's more, there are six other demon kings in this world, each one more powerful than the other. If they were ranked by strength, Beelzebub would be above the demons but below the demon kings.
If we have to pick out a race from among the many races that can rival the Demon King, the gods and angels are the first priority, and other powerful races are secondary.
"Do you Mimics really enjoy submitting to the Demon King?"
"The will of the Demon King is our will. It has been like this since the birth of the Demon Clan."
Ye Xi shook his head helplessly and threw the mimic beast to the ground like garbage.
"Alright, as one of the most powerful mimics among the demons, your selfless dedication to the Demon King is worthy of respect, even in death."
Ye Xi had a full understanding of how cunning the mimic beasts were, as he had fought against them too many times.
"By the way, you have millions of faces, why do you have to turn into an animal?"
"Because... we also need to hunt for food. Disguising ourselves as familiar people to approach prey is our main method of hunting."
"But it's very strange here. The animals living here have become irritable and violent. Even the herbivorous species have become bloodthirsty."
Ye Xi thought about it after hearing this, and realized that this situation was consistent with what happened to those people after they were possessed by the black fog.
Before, Ye Xi felt that in addition to the main city area, other places were also affected.
However, Li De regarded these symptoms as being infected with disgust, which is an incomprehensible statement.
Judging from the current situation, Lingxi Mountain is probably not that safe either, so we must be cautious with every step we take.
"Look at how timid you are, are you afraid?"
"Of course I'm scared! Those guys devoured our companions right in front of us!"
"So we have to become like this, rather than foraging for food, we are actually camouflaging and escaping."
The mimics' tone became more excited, which meant that what they said was most likely true.
"If you're afraid of death, why don't you just run away?"
"We were planning this, but we just happened to meet you."
As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Xi stopped paying attention to them, which meant that he had left a way to survive.
The mimic beast was also very grateful, and when it saw that Ye Xi was no longer hesitant, it hurriedly left the scene.
Xiaer, who was walking with Ye Xi, felt a little confused. Ye Xi was not afraid at all, but quickly calmed down.
"Ye Xi, since you knew they were sent by the Demon King, why did you let them go?"
"I will definitely cause trouble for you again and kill you!"
"So what? I dare say that even if they are defeated again and again, the Demon King will not personally take my life."
"No one but a fool is in a hurry to do anything."
Xiaer's words could not motivate Ye Xi's persistence, so he had to take it slow according to the current situation.
If that time really comes, maybe Ye Xi will really show his true strength.
Ye Xi and Xia Er continued to walk inside and finally stepped completely into the range of Lingxi Mountain.
The structure of this area is not very complex and it has an altitude of 300 meters.
The area is covered with vast expanses of plant life and flowers, and includes valleys, streams, dense forests, and houses.
While walking on a small path leading downwards, they saw houses not far away.
Some of these houses are built on trees, some are built normally on the ground, but some are even built on cliffs.
Although the sky was dark, there was only a slight breeze and no sign of heavy rain.
"It seems like these houses are all occupied."
Ye Xi and Xia Er walked over and found that the house was not decayed, but was still in normal condition.
I just don't know if I'll encounter similar scenes in Lingxi Mountains.
After walking around for a while, Ye Xi and Xia Er discovered that there were indeed traces of human habitation here.
Looking through a window, you can see leftover food scraps and weapons inside.
Based on the fact that Brest is a hunter, it can be inferred that almost all humans living in Lingxi Mountains make a living by hunting.
"Although there are people living here, there's not a single person in sight."
Ye Xi came to the door of a house at random, pushed it gently with his hand, and found that the door was locked.
"He's probably out hunting. It should be almost noon now."
Although the sky was already dark, it was almost noon.
At this moment, Charles' waist bag moved and Xiaoyou suddenly jumped out of it.
"Xiaoyou? What's wrong with you?"
"Sister Xiaer, Yexi, there's a fight going on over there!"
"fight?"
"Lead the way."
After Ye Xi gave the order, Xiao You quickly ran out of the housing area and into a forest, with Ye Xi following closely behind.
"Hey! Wait for me!"
Charles also hurriedly followed, stepping directly into the bushy area and following Ye Xi in a sissy voice.
"Wait for me...Ye Xi!"
Xiaoyou chose a less conventional route, which was like taking a shortcut. Since the cat's body was flexible and petite, it was almost unobstructed.
Ye Xi used a dagger to cut all the leaves and grass in front of him, but even so, Charles felt that he could not move forward.
Charles walked forward with a painful look on his face. There were thorns under his feet, and he accidentally pierced his skin.
"it hurts......"
Just when Charles was about to fall, Ye Xi suddenly held Charles' body.
"Ah...Yexi!"
"Shh, don't make a sound."
