Demon King: Hero, don’t run away!

Yang Yu had already decided on his next journey. Facing Glantham’s invitation, he chose to decline.

Although it was a pity not to immediately obtain the Legendary Shield, he wouldn’t change his plans because of it.

Without the shield, he could wait, but some matters couldn’t be delayed.

After explaining his thoughts, Yang Yu asked Bai Jin to take out the Crystal Ball and log Corola’s Characteristic Magic Power.

For the convenience of delivering the shield, Bai Jin allowed Corola to set up Location Magic in her Crystal Ball.

Location Magic is divided into two types: bidirectional and unidirectional.

Corola used a bidirectional Location Magic.

Once established, when one side needs the other’s location information, it can be obtained through the Crystal Ball.

While Corola was setting up the Location Magic for Bai Jin, Yang Yu listened carefully to Glantham’s stories about their strategy of the Underground Maze.

Although they had strategized two Lux Underground Mazes, the ”Dragon God’s Might” had only seen one Guardian of an Underground Maze.

That person claimed to be the last Queen of the Star Kingdom, an elderly, kind woman, but when mentioning the Hero, a shadow crossed her eyes.

She told Glantham that from Lux’s aged expression, she could feel Lux was scheming something.

It wasn’t something beneficial to the current world, but rather what Lux thought the world should return to.

With such will, Lux was more determined and decisive than before, as if time could not defeat him.

Although she didn’t know what Lux wanted to do, the old woman felt vaguely worried, so she implored the ”Dragon God’s Might”, if Lux made a mistake, not to worry about his past as a Hero, but to stop him at all costs.

Most of Glantham’s words were the subjective feelings of the old woman, lacking much useful information.

After listening to the story, Yang Yu personally handed a key to Glantham.

Giving up the key would temporarily lose the qualification to enter the final Underground Maze, but exchanging the key for the shield was a well-considered decision by Yang Yu.

On one hand, the Goblin Emperor was indeed a threat.

If the ”Dragon God’s Might” could assemble a strong enough expeditionary team, finding the Goblin Emperor sooner would increase the hope of eliminating him.

Yang Yu wasn’t afraid of the ”Dragon God’s Might” completing the final Underground Maze strategy while they were away.

Every maze designed by Lux was quite intricate, and passing through Lux’s final Underground Maze would likely take a considerable amount of time.

By the time they strategize the Underground Maze and rush over, they might not miss out.

On the other hand, Yang Yu was confident in reclaiming the fifth key after handing over one.

Not to mention the Lux Underground Maze yet to be strategized, the Count Blood should also have a key in his possession.

He must be very interested in Lux’s Underground Maze, or he wouldn’t have sent various poisons to guard the Underground Maze.

Defeating the Count Blood should secure the key, perhaps even more than needed.

After concluding most of the conversation, Corola also set up the Location Magic for Bai Jin, and Yang Yu bid farewell to the ”Dragon God’s Might” and returned to the cabin with his companions to rest.

As time passed, the ”Dragon God’s Might” brought the expeditionary team and arrived at the adventurer guild where they had started.

Catching wind of this, adventurers waiting in the guild flooded the beach, eager to witness the grandeur of high-level adventurers.

Yang Yu and his team left the cabin, ascended to the deck, and looked up at the starry sky shining above.

Corola, who arrived on deck unbeknownst to them, entered the adventurer guild before Yang Yu could greet her and called the guild’s receptionist.

Under Bai Jin’s Magic protection, Yang Yu and his companions jumped from the deck and landed on the beach.

Glantham and his team exited the cabin via a designated ladder and happened to meet Yang Yu’s team.

After greeting Yang Yu, Glantham led his team to the receptionist.

In the Demon expedition task, due to varying body sizes among demons, the required number of kills also varies, and adventurers can’t always bring back all the Demons they kill. Therefore, they usually only need to provide certain parts or Magic Crystals.

In the task to exterminate the Evil Dragon’s offspring, with a giant dragon watching from the sky, cheating is unlikely.

Yet, the ”Dragon God’s Might” still handed over the Evil Dragon’s offspring’s heart and Magic Crystal obtained in the expedition to the adventurer guild’s receptionist for identification.

Yang Yu also took out the same items from the system and handed them to the guild receptionist for identification, along with a pile of black soil.

Apart from the items required for identification, once Demons are killed, the remaining parts are free to be handled as desired.

Some Demons are themselves excellent material sources, and adventurers are willing to spend time cleaning up demon corpses.

In principle, dragons should also be excellent material repositories.

However, the dragon’s body is primarily made up of Magic, and without special methods for timely processing, after removing the heart and Magic Core, the dragon’s body will rapidly collapse at a visible speed.

Equipment or tools made from materials harvested from a dragon’s body are unique in themselves.

The only proper current channels to acquire those Legendary Equipment are through the dragon’s Treasure Vault.

The receptionist didn’t thoroughly inspect the documents provided by Yang Yu and Glantham but instead led them into the adventurer guild.

In human form, Hei Luo was sitting in the adventurer guild, sipping tea.

Seeing Yang Yu and the other members of the expeditionary team arrive, Hei Luo stood up to express his respect to the adventurers who defeated the Evil Dragon’s offspring,

”Everyone, you’ve worked hard.

Today on the island, I’m sure many people have already seen me.

I am that Black Dragon.

No need to feel any psychological burden.

I am here to commend your achievements and give you your deserved rewards.”

Taking out a list, Hei Luo began to announce the rewards for each person.

As the team that defeated Red Blade Doron and led the way to defeat another Evil Dragon’s offspring, Yang Yu’s team received three pieces of Legendary Equipment as a reward for this action; the ”Dragon God’s Might” received two pieces of Legendary Equipment; ”Island Drifting”, other two S-Class adventure groups, and one active Quasi-S-Class adventure group each received one piece of Legendary Equipment.

Apart from the Legendary Equipment, the dragons also provided several Rare Items and Rare Materials as rewards.

All rewards were decided with careful consideration by the Dragon God Council, and no one questioned the dragons’ allocations.

Should anyone raise doubts, the dragons would present compelling evidence to refute them thoroughly.

Yang Yu was also surprised by the dragons’ generosity once again.

However, while the dragons were generous, they weren’t entirely lavish.

The quality of the Legendary Equipment varied, and when referring to a piece of Legendary Equipment, the dragons meant the standard quality Legendary Equipment.

To obtain better Legendary Equipment, one needs to exchange their choice selections for points and then use those points for purchases.

For those interacting with the dragon’s reward distribution system for the first time, they might be confused for quite some time, possibly opting to directly claim their rewards on the interface without any fuss.
