Fox Demon Crossing

However, after a thorough inspection, Lancer found that he had not missed any important items, so he returned to the hunter camp helplessly. During this time, he did some research on the fashion trends in the city, especially the underwear preferences of women...

"It's really unexpected. A mature girl like Najeshitan actually likes pure white underwear. A stubborn girl like Myne only likes lace ones. I can predict the tastes of the others..." He muttered to himself, sorting out Hill's pure cotton underwear, Leona's thong and Akame's sports underwear. As for Chelsea's? There was no trace of them...

"Is she not wearing any? Maybe she is hiding it with a divine weapon. What a pity..."

-

Giving up the idea of ​​looking again, Lancer walked towards the Queen's Suite. Seeing Esdeath curled up, he couldn't help but stroke her hair, then lay down beside her.

The next day, as usual, Esdeath was summoned by the Prime Minister, presumably to discuss how to pursue the night raid. To Lanser's surprise, the Prime Minister actually mentioned him.

"The Prime Minister actually wants me to choose a sacred weapon?" After hearing this, Lanser smiled bitterly and pointed his finger at his nose in disbelief.

"That's right. Although I don't think you can succeed, you should still go. After all, it's the Prime Minister's order." Esdeath knew very well that Lancer was the 'gravedigger'. She didn't think Lancer would choose the artifact, but it would undoubtedly be an unwise decision to directly resist without knowing the Prime Minister's intention.

"Ha! I think you'd be a good candidate for the glasses-wearing type of tool!"

"Xianyu, what do you want to say?"

"Well, I can't really explain it, it's just my intuition! Let me emphasize it one last time, I'm Will! Wei! Er! Not some salted fish!" While explaining, he once again promoted the magical effect of "salted fish"...

-

As Esdeath entered the palace, he faced the minister who was known as the 'root of the empire' for the first time! People who don't know his true face might think he is a gentle and kind elder?

However, Lancer saw through the surging malice behind this man, and he had to punish him! But at this time, Lancer did not intend to act rashly. Regardless of whether he could kill him, it might also affect Esdeath; besides, was this prime minister just a bystander? How powerful was he?

These questions suppressed his impulse to act, but perhaps his doubts were too obvious, and the minister actually smiled at him.

"..." What else could Lanser do? He could only respond with a polite smile.

"I heard you are from XX?" However, at this moment, the minister suddenly asked, which made Lanser a little confused, but he immediately realized that this was a serious matter - did the prime minister misunderstand him as a handsome spy of the revolutionary army? But he seemed to have made a mistake...

"Oh, that's over there! It's quite close. I was born in OO." Lanser answered calmly, while glancing at the ghost beside the minister, who only he could see.

Then the minister asked a few more questions, some of which were right and some were wrong, but after a few questions, he stopped paying attention, which made sense - after all, he was just a small character, and even if the prime minister looked at Lancer differently because of Esdeath, he would not waste too much time on him, and would just give him a simple test. Lancer was happy to be quiet, and quietly accompanied him into the palace.

Passing by several guards, they immediately looked at the Prime Minister and continued to defend their posts. However, when Lanser saw the Prime Minister take out a bunch of keys from his waist and easily open the door of the artifact vault, he couldn't help but look up to his power and status. It was obvious that this man controlled most of the empire. After all, the artifact was the most powerful existence. He actually carried this key with him, which showed his power.

But when he stepped into the room, Lanser's eyes were instantly attracted by dozens of artifacts. There were a total of forty-eight artifacts, most of which had already appeared. The remaining half that had not appeared were probably placed here?

He first ruled out weapon-type artifacts, because he mainly relied on the power of the "gravedigger". The previous battle had proved that his shovel was more powerful than many artifacts.

"It's a support type artifact..."

-

The Prime Minister was stunned when he saw that Lancer did not choose a weapon. Most people would choose a weapon first. But he changed his mind and thought that this boy was quite smart. It was said that he had not practiced fighting or any weapons. So it would be more reasonable for him to choose a non-offensive artifact.

However, he had searched the imperial capital for the artifacts before, and only one of his men got the wind sickle, and another guard girl got the hundred-armed giant, so he did not have high hopes for Lanser. This time, he let Lanser enter the palace just for a routine inspection.

However, when he was distractedly thinking about what to eat for dinner and which woman would sleep with him that night, he suddenly noticed that Lancer picked up a rope?

'That magical tool...' The Prime Minister looked helpless, wondering why he would choose this?

It’s not because the device is too powerful, quite the contrary, its capabilities are so useless that the previous owners were unwilling to use it.

Normally, weapon artifacts can improve the user's physical fitness, but this artifact is different. It does not strengthen the user's body, but has unique skills - toughness and elasticity.

It is called "hard" because some people once questioned whether it was a waste to make it and just destroyed it. But even the "soul scissors" can't cut it, and it will even cause wounds on it. Another feature is "retractability". In short, it perfectly reflects the strength of the holder. For example, if the maximum grip is 50 kg, it can be retracted with both hands, that is, 100 kg of force; if the strength of others exceeds, the rope will become useless and the other party can break free directly; if the strength is not enough, it will strangle the other party directly without wasting the owner's physical strength...
