Being so close makes it easy to hide at any time.
As the four walked toward the tavern, spies from various organizations around them began to move and follow them.
Soon, information about the four's arrival at the tavern was learned by different small groups.
As soon as the four entered the tavern, more and more demons began to enter from outside, and there were quite a few of them.
The tavern waiter, seeing this, wondered what kind of trouble these weaklings were up to now.
Just like adults seeing kids shouting about "loyalty," "brotherhood," and "brotherhood" while getting into a brawl, they just find it funny.
The waiters in this tavern are all level eleven demons. What kind of trouble can a group of level eight demons cause in the tavern?
The four members of the group sat down in a corner of the tavern and pretended to order food.
Annie stood up and said, "Mr. Layton and I will go to the bulletin board. Her Highness and Miss Milu will stay here."
Demons will be coming to find you soon; try to extract some information from them.
“Okay!” Lycorina nodded.
Eighth, because they are now using human language, and no demon can understand what they are saying.
However, it was precisely because they used a language that most demons couldn't understand that the demons responsible for monitoring the area were even more convinced that these four "demons" came from another place.
Layton walked in front of Annie, pretending to be the leader: "Will they be in danger staying there?"
"Will the demons we killed yesterday hire other demons to take revenge on us?"
"It's possible," An Yi replied calmly. "Don't worry, Miss Milu is here."
With Milu around, even if we can't beat her, we can still run away, right?
Wu An Yi had great confidence in Mi Lu Ke's vigilance and even gave her an extra reminder in the chat group.
[Sword Warrior: Increase your resilience to 30 using equipment.]
To prevent poison gas or magical attacks from those who cannot escape in time.
Hero of the Thorns: Alright.
Without a moment's hesitation, Milu used the Warrior Set provided by the main quest to increase her resilience.
One must always be mindful of protecting oneself from evil spirits!
Some demons might want to hire them, but there will definitely be demons who want to eliminate the threat completely.
Yesterday they killed [Red Tiger], today they can kill someone else!
Annie and Layton walked up to the bulletin board, pretending to look at the bounties and looking for their next target.
Before long, a voice suddenly appeared in their ears like a ghost;
"Help us get rid of the [Ice Deer], and we'll give you an extra 20%."
The newcomer might be a highly agile demon skilled in stealth.
Looking back, a deer-headed, humanoid demon, two heads taller and much more robust than Layton, stood not far away.
It made no attempt to conceal its appearance; above its head were strange purple antlers, emitting a similarly purple wisp of smoke, like a creature that had stepped out of a dream.
Level 8 Demon [Purple Cloud Deer]
Just then, a chill swept over them from behind.
“Alright, if we kill the Purple Deer, we can give you 30% more.”
Another demon with a deer's head and a human body stood to the side. Its size was similar to that of the Purple Cloud Deer, its fur was snow-white, but its antlers were made of ice crystals, and cold white mist floated around it.
Level 8 Demon: [White Frost Deer]
Two demons with deer heads and human bodies stood on either side. Although they did not look at each other, the air was thick with tension.
Now that things have come to this, it's an open conspiracy.
It's like an open bidding process; the losing party has to consider how to defend themselves.
Suddenly, the cold air and the purple air attacked each other, like two giant hands clashing in mid-air.
"Oh!"
An Yi's thoughts shifted instantly, and a gust of wind blasted the two auras apart, startling both of them. (Slip away)
"Alright, let's continue," An Yi said calmly.
“I’ll take 35%,” Ziyunlu said through gritted teeth.
“Seven out of ten.” Bai Shuanglu frowned deeply.
"Thirty-nine percent!" Ziyunlu clenched her fists.
"Forty percent!" The white frost deer practically wanted to press its antlers against the other's face. Even more...

“We can also contribute 40%, but besides money, we can also offer some high-level magical items or scrolls,” Ziyunlu said solemnly.
The original bounty was already quite high; adding 40% on top of that is already more than double.
Both sides went to great lengths to ensure the other side was leaderless.
It's not that they can't come up with more money, but rather that they can't decide whether to spend more.
On the other side, Lycorina and Miluko, who were sitting at the table waiting, were also approached by the demons.
The two demons sat down in the chairs naturally, and then began to "perform" in front of the two people, just like the two deer-headed people.
It wasn't a real performance, it just looked kind of funny.
They were both trying to kill each other's leader, yet they sat at the dinner table exchanging words instead of actually fighting.
To be honest, both sides are talking about killing each other's leaders, so it's not impossible for them to start fighting right now, is it?
The four members of the Saintess Squad suddenly became popular. In addition to the first few demons that appeared, more demons soon appeared one after another.
However, they did not accept any requests from the demons.
The answer given was always "Let's think about it."
but……
An Yi used wind magic to transmit her voice, instructing each demon to wait in different places at different times.
Not long after, the four left the tavern and headed back to the inn.
On the way, the original four people became three, and the shortest "demon" suddenly disappeared.
The demons responsible for tracking and monitoring immediately noticed something was wrong, but because the other party was too small and their magic could not be sensed, they were unable to track the other party at all.
Just like how 九 disappeared from under someone's eyelids in the blink of an eye. 三△≤－〈lin∧‰∴△
About ten minutes have passed.
A white frost deer with two icy antlers on its head walked into an alley and waited silently for something.
"Behind you..."
A multitude of voices, their gender and age indistinguishable, mingled together and came from within.
The white frost deer turned to look at the dark alley, where a demon, clad in a black robe, whom it had never seen before, stood behind it.
Judging from his height and build, he is not any of the four mercenaries.
Perhaps it was another intelligence agent?
"Does this mean you agree?" Bai Shuanglu asked happily.
Tell me information about the Purple Deer.
"Here you go." White Frost Deer pulled a scroll from her clothes, threw it on the ground, and kicked it at the other person. "It contains everything about Purple Deer."
The scroll was stepped on with a loud thud.
However, Bai Shuanglu didn't even see the other party bend down to pick it up before the other party disappeared from sight along with the scroll on the ground.
"?!"
White Frost Deer was taken aback.
Such amazing stealth skills!
Even as an eighth-level demon, it couldn't detect the other party's movements at all!
White Frost Deer was overjoyed, thinking that since the other party had taken the information about [Purple Deer], they must be preparing to make a move against [Purple Deer].
However, what he didn't know was...
Miluko, who had adjusted her voice and height using the [Pseudo-Formless] technique, turned and headed in another direction after obtaining the scroll.
In her chat group, there was a list of demon races that An Yi had sent her, with instructions on where to meet at a certain time.
After quickly checking the scroll she had just obtained, Milu immediately moved to the next location to obtain information about the next level eight demon leader.
It took nearly two hours to search for each of the demons.
She returned to the inn silently, following the other demons as if nothing had happened. Even the demons from the various organizations that were monitoring her didn't notice her sudden return.
Back in her room, Milu put down the various documents she was holding on the floor.
Some are scrolls, some are simply a piece of paper, and there are even magical papers that automatically erase characters.
Milu also sent the information she obtained orally to An Yi via private message.
Then she suddenly discovered another feature of the chat group—
This chat group seems like it could be used as a memo!
Lycorina squatted down and rummaged through the files, her eyes sparkling with excitement: "This should be all the information on the leaders of the level eight demon race, right?"
The white lion we originally wanted to defeat is also up there.
"Anyi is so clever! This is much faster than us going out to investigate ourselves!"
"Information delivered to our doorstep is never a bad thing," An Yi said calmly.
He refused all the offers from the demons and had no interest in their rewards.
Money was merely icing on the cake for their operations; what was truly useful was the intelligence these demons possessed.
