Chapter 495 Departure

In the streets of the demon city, Fang Yue tried his best to make himself look like an ordinary demon.

He would occasionally stop in some busy corners and listen to the conversations of the demons around him.

Once, near a tavern, he heard two demons whispering.

"I heard that the secret treasure obtained by the patrolling wind demon king is very important. It is said to be related to some mysterious place."

"Shh, keep your voice down. You can't talk about this matter casually. If the demon kings hear it, it will be troublesome."

Fang Yue's heart tightened. Mysterious place?

This coincided with the place they had been looking for.

He felt more and more that the news of this secret treasure was extraordinary, and he was more determined to find out the truth.

He continued to wander around the tavern, hoping to hear more about the secret treasure and the mysterious place.

However, the two demons seemed to have noticed something and left in a hurry.

Fang Yue had no choice but to find another place to inquire about the news.

He came to the market in the demon city, where people came and went, and the demons were doing various transactions.

He mixed in the crowd, paying attention to the conversations of the monsters around him.

Suddenly, he heard an old monster complaining to another monster: "The monster city has been uneasy recently. I heard that the patrolling wind monster king took the secret treasure, and I don't know what he will do."

Another monster responded: "Who knows, maybe it's to fight for more power. But if this secret treasure is really related to the mysterious place, it will be troublesome."

Fang Yue listened to their conversation silently, thinking about the authenticity of this information.

He knew that these rumors alone could not determine the authenticity of the secret treasure and its specific connection with the mysterious place, but at least gave him some clues.

Fang Yue's heart tightened, the mysterious place? This coincided with the place they had been looking for. He felt more and more that the news of this secret treasure was extraordinary, and he was more determined to find out the truth.

There was only one thing that made him hesitate.

That was that everything was too coincidental!

Fang Yue stood in the corner of the market, frowning, and the doubts in his heart enveloped him like a dark cloud.

This series of coincidences was so bizarre that he had to wonder if there was a huge trap hidden behind it.

He thought quietly, replaying every word he heard after entering the demon city in his mind.

Those rumors about the secret treasure and the mysterious place seemed to be a thread that pulled him towards unknown danger.

However, the mysterious place had a huge attraction for them, which was their hope to get rid of the pursuit of the demon city and change their fate.

Fang Yue took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down.

He decided not to inquire about the news like a headless fly, but to act more strategically.

First, he needed to determine the source of these rumors to see if he could find some clues from them to judge their authenticity.

Fang Yue began to pay attention to the monsters who spread the news in the market and observe their words and deeds.

He found that some monsters seemed to be particularly interested in the secret treasure and always led the topic intentionally or unintentionally.

He quietly followed one of the more suspicious monsters to see what he was doing.

After walking around the market for a few times, the monster walked into a remote alley.

Fang Yue followed carefully, keeping a sufficient distance to avoid being discovered.

The monster came to a dilapidated house and knocked on the door gently.

The door opened, and a short monster walked out. The two whispered a few words and then walked into the house together.

Fang Yue's heart moved, and he quietly approached the house and tried to hear the conversation inside.

But the sound insulation of the house seemed to be very good, and he could only vaguely hear some vague sounds.

He was unwilling to give up, so he looked for other clues around the house.

At the back of the house, he found a small window. Fang Yue approached the window carefully and looked inside through the gap.

I saw that the two monsters were sitting around a table with some papers and maps on the table.

They seemed to be discussing something important, but Fang Yue couldn't hear the specific content clearly.

At this moment, Fang Yue suddenly felt a strong breath approaching.

He was startled and quickly hid in the shadows on the side.

A moment later, a tall monster appeared at the entrance of the alley. His eyes were sharp, scanning the surrounding environment.

Fang Yue recognized that the monster was one of the guards of the monster city, and he secretly said in his heart that it was not good.

The guard walked around the alley and seemed to find nothing unusual, then turned and left.

Fang Yue breathed a sigh of relief, but he knew that he could not stay here any longer.

He quietly left the alley and returned to the market.

After Fang Yue returned to the market, his doubts became heavier.

He realized that he had attracted some unnecessary attention and had to be more cautious.

He found a relatively quiet corner in the market and reorganized his thoughts.

What exactly do those papers and maps mean?

Will the important things that the two monsters are discussing be related to the secret treasure and the mysterious place?

Fang Yue racked his brains to think about various possibilities.

He knew that to solve this mystery, he could not rely solely on accidental discoveries, but also needed more in-depth investigation and analysis.

Fang Yue decided to start from another angle and look for some monsters who knew more about the history and legends of the monster city.

Maybe they can provide some clues about mysterious places and treasures.

He asked around in the market and finally found an old monster who was said to be very familiar with the ancient legends of the monster city.

Fang Yue approached the old monster cautiously and said respectfully: "Senior, I heard that you are very knowledgeable about the history and legends of the monster city, so I came here to ask for advice."

The old monster squinted his eyes and looked at Fang Yue, "What do you want to ask?"

Fang Yue said quickly: "I would like to ask, do you know anything about the mysterious place and the recently rumored secret treasure?"

The old monster's expression changed slightly, "These are not things you, a little monster, should ask about."

Fang Yue said sincerely: "Senior, I am just curious about these legends and have no ill intentions. I hope you can give me some advice."

The old monster was silent for a moment, and then slowly said: "The mysterious place has always been a mysterious and dangerous place in the legend of Monster City. It is said that there is powerful power hidden there, but it is also full of unknown dangers. As for the secret treasure, I have only heard some rumors, but I don’t know the details.”

Fang Yue's heart tightened and he continued to ask: "Senior, do you know any way to find the mysterious place?"

The old monster shook his head, "The location of the mysterious place has always been a mystery. No one knows the exact method. However, it is said that the mysterious place will only appear under certain timing and conditions."

Fang Yue fell into deep thought.

Specific timing and conditions?

What does this mean?

He felt like he was picking up on some clues, but he couldn't quite understand them.

After bidding farewell to the old monster, Fang Yue decided to return to the dilapidated house again to see if he could find more clues.

He carefully avoided the guards of the demon city and came to the entrance of the alley.

This time, he observed his surroundings more carefully to ensure that he was not discovered.

As Fang got closer to the dilapidated house, his heart beat faster involuntarily.

He didn't know what he would find this time, but the strong curiosity deep in his heart drove him to move forward.

He quietly came to the back window of the house and peered through the crack again.

However, this time the room was empty, and the papers and maps on the table were missing.

Fang Yue felt a sense of loss in his heart, but he did not give up.

He began searching carefully around the house, hoping to find some clues left behind.

On the side of the house, he found some shallow footprints, which seemed to have been left by someone leaving in a hurry.

Fang Yue walked in the direction of the footprints, trying to track the whereabouts of the two monsters.

The footprints meandered down the alley and finally disappeared at a fork in the road.

Fang Yue stood at the fork in the road, hesitant. He didn't know which way to pursue.

At this moment, he heard a slight noise, as if someone was talking not far away.

He immediately became alert and quietly approached the direction of the sound.

As he got closer, the sound became clearer and clearer.

He heard a monster's voice saying: "We must be careful this time, and we can't let anyone discover our plan."

Another monster responded: "Don't worry, as long as we get the secret treasure, we can find the mysterious place, and then we will have great power."

Fang Yue's heart suddenly moved and he made a bold decision in an instant.

He no longer hesitated, flashed like a ghost, and suddenly captured and killed the two monsters.

The two monsters didn't even have time to let out a complete exclamation before they fell to the ground.

Fang Yue's heartbeat accelerated rapidly. He knew that his move was extremely risky, but he couldn't care so much at the moment.

He quickly searched the two monsters, hoping to find more clues about the secret treasure and the mysterious place.

He turned out some scattered papers with some vague words and a strange pattern written on them.

Fang Yue frowned, trying hard to identify the meaning of these words and patterns, but for a moment he had no clue.

At this time, Fang Yue's heart was filled with tension and uneasiness.

He knew that his actions in Demon City were becoming more and more dangerous. Once discovered, the consequences would be disastrous.

But he also understands that in order to find the mysterious place and escape the pursuit of the demon city, he must face these risks bravely.

Fang Yue carefully put away the papers and patterns, and then quickly left the scene.

He followed a remote path, trying to avoid the guards of the demon city and other monsters, and rushed towards the boundless swamp.

~~~~~~~~

at the same time,

In the monster city, the Lord looked at the two monsters that had been killed, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

"It seems that the human has been here. Let's see how he escaped from my grasp this time!"

The news, maps, and secret texts that were spread were all traps laid by the Lord of Demon City to get Fang Yue to take the bait.

Of course, everything is true, and only in this way can Fang Yue be attracted into the game.

The Lord is well aware of Fang Yue's desire for the mysterious place, and he believes that this bait is tempting enough.

In the boundless swamp, Fang Yue rushed back to his hiding place with Fox Girl and Turtle Lao.

He showed them his experience in Demon City and the papers and patterns he got.

The fox girl looked at these mysterious clues with excitement and worry in her heart.

"Fang Yue, can these things really help us find the mysterious place? Could it be a trap from the Demon City?" asked the fox girl.

Fang Yue frowned, thinking about the fox girl's problem.

He knew that this was probably a trap, but after Gui Lao verified it, all these things were true.

Fang Yue looked at Fox Girl and Gui Lao, and said solemnly: "Although these things have been verified by Gui Lao to be true, we cannot take it lightly.

The Lord of Demon City must have a plan for setting this trap. "

The fox girl bit her lip, with a hint of uneasiness in her eyes: "Then what should we do?

If we continue to pursue the mysterious place, we are likely to fall into the trap of the demon city; but if we give up, we lose another opportunity that may change our destiny. "

After Gui Lao thought for a moment, he said: "We cannot be easily swayed by fear. Since these clues are true, it means that the mysterious place does exist.

We can follow these clues cautiously, but we must always be vigilant and prepared to deal with various dangers. "

Fang Yue nodded: "Old Turtle is right. We cannot give up hope just because we are afraid of traps. We must carefully analyze these clues to find the safest exploration path."

They began to carefully study the vague words and strange patterns on the papers.

Gui Lao relied on his rich knowledge and experience to try to decipher the meaning.

Fang Yue used his wisdom and insight to analyze where these clues might lead from different angles.

After some hard work, they seemed to have found some clues.

That strange pattern seems to be related to a specific area in the boundless swamp, and those words may be a guide.

"If we can determine the area represented by this pattern, we may be able to find clues to the mysterious place." Fang Yue said.

The fox girl's eyes flashed with hope: "Then let's set off quickly."

Fang Yue shook his head: "No, we can't act rashly. The people in Demon City are definitely watching us secretly, and we must think of a foolproof strategy."

They began to discuss how to explore the area that might be related to the mysterious place without being discovered by the demon city.

They decide to harness the power of the Swamp Thing and let it provide them with cover and help.

Protected by the swamp monster, they cautiously made their way toward the area.

Along the way, they were always alert to the movements around them and took every step with extreme caution. The fog in the swamp is still thick, adding a bit of mystery and uneasiness to their actions.

The fox girl cuddled tightly next to Fang Yue, her eyes showing both nervousness and expectation. "Fang Yue, do you think we can really find the mysterious place?"

Fang Yue patted the fox girl's hand gently and comforted: "As long as we don't give up, there is hope. But we must be careful not to let people in Demon City discover our whereabouts." (End of Chapter)
