I, a mercenary, became a beautiful silver-haired boy

Chapter 1373

After hearing what Bud said, Elena didn't take it seriously. After all, he didn't think that the other party could repay these favors. The gap in strength was so big that they could even be said to be from two different worlds. Even if Bud was exhausted and vomited blood, it would be difficult for him to repay Elena's favors in the future.

Bud was also a realistic person, but at this moment he still wanted to work hard to repay Elena's kindness in the future, and he didn't realize that the other party didn't count on him at all.

After this topic ended, the atmosphere fell into silence. Elena didn't look so talkative. After chatting for a few topics, he had nothing to say.

Bud's mind was not on chatting. Looking at Elena, who was sitting next to him with only one body distance, he could even smell the body fragrance of the other party.

Obviously they are all human beings, why is the gap between people so big? They are also adventurous outside and crossing mountains and ridges. They haven't taken a shower for several days. They are covered with so much dust and blood, but they are still fragrant and have very little odor.

"That... Elena..."

Looking at Bud's heart, he felt inexplicably hot, and when he came to his senses, he subconsciously called the other person's name.

"What's wrong?"

Hearing Bud's voice, Elena subconsciously turned her head, and her bangs slipped down in front of her. She subconsciously reached out to touch them and put them behind her ears, which made the person in front of her heart excited.

"I... I..."

The body temperature that had finally dropped was now rising again, and the time came for her to speak out her feelings.

But at this moment, two figures came back from a distance. The Demon King and Phoenix, who were exploring the terrain around to find the location of the maze's main breath, had completed their obligations.

"Oh, we're not back at the right time, are we? The atmosphere between you two is so good, are we disturbed?"

Phoenix floated over with a mean look, and glanced at Bud who was awkwardly standing there and Elena who was expressionless beside him. She seemed to understand what the atmosphere between the two was just now.

"What are you talking about? Have you made any progress on what I told you to do? Why are you back so soon?"

Elena didn't understand what Phoenix was talking about. He only cared about the progress of Phoenix and the Demon King's work.

After letting Phoenix possess him, this senior who was originally a bit harsh and difficult to get along with has gradually opened his heart to him, and he no longer has the cold feeling at the beginning.

It can only be said that food does have the effect of healing people's hearts. Phoenix's mood is visibly good after tasting the long-lost delicious food. Occasionally, he will float in the air and turn in circles.

"Of course it's done. This guy and I have found the general direction of the core of the maze. If you want, you can set off now."

Phoenix said with some pride, although it was the Demon King who was good at energy control who did more of the work, and she could only play a supporting role at most.

So Elena turned her head and looked at the Demon King, who nodded to indicate that things were going very smoothly.

"Okay, let's go without further ado. How do you feel, Bud? Do you have enough energy to travel now?"

Elena stood up and patted her pants, then turned around and looked at Bud with some concern. After all, he had just recovered from a serious illness, and his condition was really worrying.

"Ah, I'm fine, I can go."

Bud was stunned for a moment, but soon came to his senses, got up from the ground in a somewhat embarrassed manner, and even made a muscle-showing pose to make himself look healthier.

However, in the eyes of others, he still looked "fragile", with a weak breath in his body and not fierce enough in appearance.

"Are you really okay?"

Elena was still a little worried about this. Bud looked very listless and his attention was not focused. It was hard to guarantee that there would be no accidents if he traveled in this state.

"Lord Elena, I'm really fine. Don't worry about me. I can catch up with you!"

Bud emphasized again. Elena had no way of understanding his current mood. It was not good to bring up such things at this time. He had no idea why Bud was so depressed.

"Okay then."

Since Bud said so, Elena didn't emphasize anything. He packed up and prepared to leave.

The Demon King walked to Bud's side, stretched out his hand and patted his shoulder, showing a meaningful expression to encourage him.

"Come on."

This made Bud's face full of question marks. He was probably the first human being to be encouraged by the Demon King, except for the brave man? He didn't quite understand what the Demon King meant.

It was BudBud himself didn't know, but everyone except Elena could see what he was thinking, after all, it was too obvious.

Only Elena herself didn't think about it, otherwise she would have been familiar with Bud, so why would she let him think about it for a long time.

Phoenix floated in front and led the way, and from time to time she would flutter like a butterfly. Although she seemed to be in a good mood, her condition was worse than Bud.

Her body seemed to be getting more and more transparent. If it continued like this, it wouldn't take too long for the naked eye to detect her existence. Every second in this space was a consumption of the residual soul. It was quite difficult for Phoenix to hold on for so long.

Phoenix herself didn't think it was a big deal. She actually had no regrets. She experienced the feeling of being a human again through Elena's body. This was something she had been looking forward to for many years.

She never regarded herself as a living person, and never thought that she could be resurrected. It was worth it to be able to satisfy her wish before disappearing.

Elena didn't have this mentality. Looking at the gradually transparent Phoenix, his mood was quite complicated. His right hand stroked the dim soul gem in his hand. He seemed to have to try some things.

Soon, everyone came to the end of a road under the leadership of Phoenix. The wall was blank and there was nothing. No matter who looked at it, they would not think there was a road here.

Elena thought so too, but he didn't say it. Since the demon king on the side didn't say anything, it also meant that the road led by Phoenix was fine.

As for how to move forward, I'm afraid Phoenix and the demon king have already discussed it. All he has to do is stand aside and watch. The demon king and the other two will naturally open the way.

The demon king walked forward and stood in front of everyone, posing as if he was going to punch. Elena couldn't help but wonder when he saw this scene, would this guy want to break the wall?
