"No Name's" group left plenty of backup plans. No Name will soon rise again.
Leticia didn't resist Wang Xiaoming's caress. After hearing Wang Xiaoming's confession-like words, Leticia no longer resisted him. Although he took her away as a Demon Lord, on closer thought, besides defeating Perseus, he didn't seem to have done anything particularly Demon Lord-like. Oh, and he made her wear a maid outfit.
Hearing Wang Xiaoming's words, she looked up at him, puzzled.
"Master, didn't you just enter the Little Garden? Why do I feel like you know so much?"
Their previous conversation was the same. He claimed to be a newcomer to the Little Garden and not from a world with existing mythology, yet he knew so much about the Little Garden, especially about the vampire race.
Looking at the puzzled little maid, Wang Xiaoming grinned, smiling brightly.
"Well, just think of it as me having the ability to see the future."
"Now that Miss Rabbit is gone, we can set off too."
"To find my sister?"
Hope filled Leticia's eyes.
"That's right!"
Wang Xiaoming withdrew his left hand from stroking Leticia's little head and then extended it in front of her.
"This lovely vampire maid, I am a knight who has just arrived in the Little Garden and is not very familiar with this world. Would you be willing to be my guide?"
Leticia stared blankly at Wang Xiaoming, then smiled and placed her small right hand in Wang Xiaoming's palm.
"I am happy to serve you."
The knight who had just arrived in the Little Garden, with his newly acquired maid, officially embarked on a new adventure.
355. The Knight and the Maid Arrive in the Northern Region
"Ah~~~ This place feels so hot. Shouldn't the north be colder?"
"Actually, the temperature here isn't high."
"Is that so? But the environment here looks like a desert. It really looks hot."
In the northern region of the Little Garden, Wang Xiaoming stood on the boundary wall, looking at the streets below, and unconsciously felt a little hot, then was rebuked by the blonde little maid behind him.
"I think it's just a psychological effect, Master. You just don't like the relatively barren environment of the northern region."
"Yeah, I really don't like this kind of environment."
The northern environment of the Little Garden is a desert, so it looks very barren, and the climate is relatively dry. Therefore, the people who live here live relatively hard lives, and the races are more inclined to cold-blooded animals, such as the northern community "Salamandra". They are all dragonkin with dragon blood. Moreover, the clothing style in the northern district is also more open, just like the Amazons in the Danmachi world. The style of the clothes is closer to Egyptian and Middle Eastern styles, so it's not a problem that it's hot here.
To be honest, with Wang Xiaoming's current physical fitness, hot and cold have little impact on him. Ordinary flames can't make him feel hot at all.
But the psychological effect still made him feel that he didn't like the environment here. Even Esther didn't like the environment here, so she directly returned to Wang Xiaoming's body. Anyway, in Wang Xiaoming's body, she could also see the outside situation.
After leaving the Eastern District, Wang Xiaoming took Leticia on a journey, aiming to find Leticia's sister. After suffering the curse, her sister disappeared. Leticia was also restricted to a certain area because of her Demon Lord host authority, until Kanaria stopped the Demon Lord game on Leticia, allowing her to join Arcadia, which allowed her to move freely. But after that, she had been active as a cadre of Arcadia and had no chance to find her sister.
Therefore, after officially becoming Wang Xiaoming's maid, they had been looking for Leticia's sister.
Along the way, under Leticia's leadership, Wang Xiaoming came to the Northern District from the Eastern District, this land of sealing Az Dahaka.
I have to say, Wang Xiaoming admired these people in the Northern District. They insisted on building a city on top of the most evil Demon Lord. This was simply dancing on a grave, and a grave that could be resurrected at any time. They were really not afraid of death.
The facts also proved that after Az Dahaka was released from the seal, he destroyed the city in an instant, and countless people died and were injured in the entire Northern District.
Wang Xiaoming looked at the prosperous city below and asked the blonde little maid behind him.
"Leticia, is your sister here?"
"I'm not sure. The news I got in the Eastern District was that ghost species had been appearing here, so I wanted to come and take a look."
"Then let's go down and ask. Let's go ask the community here."
"Okay."
The two of them directly found a position on the boundary wall and jumped down together. This height, which seemed to be hundreds of meters, was an easy level for both Wang Xiaoming and Leticia.
However, both of them jumped down, but the landing was completely different.
When Wang Xiaoming landed, he directly smashed his feet into the ground, forcibly smashing two holes in the ground, and the surrounding ground was also cracked. The highlight was a violent force. The whole process was very Newtonian.
Leticia was different. When she was about to land, she directly spread her wings. As a royal of the vampire race, Leticia reached the level of Dragon Knight on the biological catalog. Therefore, she received the grace of the giant dragon that the vampires worshiped at that time. Leticia possessed the Dragon's Remnant Shadow possessed by the dragon race, which could turn the shadow into a sharp blade to attack, or turn the shadow into wings to help fly.
When she was about to land, she directly spread the wings on her back, and then flapped them, lifting the corners of her skirt to prevent the skirt from being blown up by the air, and then landed gently. The highlight was two words—elegance!
After Leticia landed, Wang Xiaoming pulled his feet out of the broken floor, shook his legs, shook out the gravel embedded in the gaps in the armor, and then, under the stunned gaze of the passers-by, swaggered toward the center of the city with his hands in his pockets.
Leticia looked at Wang Xiaoming's casual appearance and smiled helplessly, then kept her elegance and followed behind him, walking towards the central area of the city together.
As for what to do with the damaged floor here, it depends on whether Wang Xiaoming is willing to give compensation. Anyway, Wang Xiaoming has a pile of Double Goddess Coins robbed from Perseus, which can be used for a long time.
After following Wang Xiaoming in the Little Garden for half a month, Leticia also understood what kind of guy this new master was. According to her subjective view, he was a "selfish" ghost who didn't care about other people's thoughts at all and only focused on the people around him, but she didn't hate this kind of "selfishness" at all.
The two of them swaggered towards the city center like this. Coupled with the way these two people landed just now, they immediately attracted the attention of the passers-by. The passers-by even directly gave way to let these two people who didn't look easy to mess with pass through.
After the two of them passed by and entered the city, they dared to whisper.
"Hey, hey, those two people, are they big shots from which community?"
"Huh? Don't you know? That's the human hero who recently entered the Little Garden. I heard that he defeated the Demon Lord who attacked Perseus a few days ago, and then took the former Demon Lord and the Little Garden Knight from the Demon Lord's hands."
"Nani? Is he so powerful?"
Because Wang Xiaoming returned Algol, the Greek pantheon wanted to give Wang Xiaoming some rewards to win him over, but unfortunately, when they got Algol from Shiroyasha, Wang Xiaoming had already run away with Leticia.
Therefore, the Greek gods chose to publicize Wang Xiaoming's achievements, using his heroic name to curry favor with him. Although Wang Xiaoming didn't care about such things, it must be said that with the endorsement of the gods, his actions in the Little Garden were very easy. Wherever he went, he was recognized and received the highest level of hospitality.
After all, a hero who could defeat a Demon Lord single-handedly upon entering the Little Garden, and who also had a four-digit Little Garden Knight by his side, was a combination that hadn't joined any community. They were welcomed and courted wherever they went.
As Wang Xiaoming led Leticia into the city, the communities within the city received the news. The arrival of two four-digit beings required the six-digit communities in the North District to treat them with utmost respect.
356. Aunt Leticia, are you looking for me?
"Hero Wang Xiaoming, Little Garden Knight, please allow me to introduce myself. I am Mandela Tultolec, the acting leader of the North District community 'Salamandra'."
The man before them politely placed his right hand on his left chest, introducing himself to Wang Xiaoming and Leticia. Behind him stood a group of Dragonkin soldiers in similar attire, making the same gesture.
They were all descendants of the Star Sea Dragon King, members with Dragon blood.
After learning of Wang Xiaoming and Leticia's arrival from his subordinates, Mandela immediately led his soldiers to welcome Wang Xiaoming.
Unlike the original storyline where they looked down on No Name, Wang Xiaoming and Leticia were genuine four-digit powerhouses. They couldn't afford to offend two four-digit powerhouses without a community, and had to treat them with the highest courtesy.
"Hello, Mr. Mandela. I am Wang Xiaoming, but the title of hero doesn't count. I am just a knight."
Since Mandela was giving him so much face, Wang Xiaoming would naturally reciprocate.
"This is my first time in the Northern Border of the Little Garden. Thank you for your kind hospitality."
"No, it is our honor to have you both."
Mandela kept his posture very low.
"I heard that you two have been looking for something in the Little Garden. Is your visit to the Northern Border also for the purpose of searching?"
"That's right. We came here after hearing news."
"Then, could you tell me what you are looking for?"
Mandela asked curiously.
Wang Xiaoming didn't answer, but looked at Leticia beside him. Leticia nodded and spoke to Mandela.
"I heard that there are Ghost Species appearing in the Northern Border. Does Salamandra have any information on this?"
"Ghost Species..."
Mandela frowned slightly. Currently, there are mainly two types of Ghost Species in the Little Garden: one refers to the Oni clan of the Japanese gods, and the other is the Vampire.
The Oni clan had already GG'd along with the Japanese gods. The entire Japanese pantheon ascended to heaven, leaving only the Ame-no-Murakumo-no-Tsurugi, a replica Creation Chart representing the Shinto cosmology. The funniest thing was that this last hope of Shintoism went to work for the Celtic gods under the Halloween Queen, becoming the Queen's knight's weapon.
So, the Ghost Species in the Little Garden now basically represent Vampires.
"Is there such a thing?"
Mandela wasn't sure, as he was usually too busy to pay attention to many things. He turned to his assistant behind him for information. The assistant thought for a moment before replying.
"Lord Mandela, there are indeed such rumors. Shiny golden hair, blood-red eyes. Some people say they have seen a young girl with such features."
"So, Ghost Species have indeed appeared!"
Golden hair and red eyes, that looked like a Vampire. However, if it was his sister, she shouldn't be able to move around normally outside after becoming a monster.
Leticia was a little puzzled.
"Can you find the eyewitness who saw the Ghost Species?"
"Can we find them?"
Mandela asked his assistant. The assistant thought for a moment, then nodded seriously.
"We should be able to find them."
"Then please find them. We need relevant information, and of course, we will pay the corresponding price."
Wang Xiaoming made a promise on behalf of Leticia.
Hearing Wang Xiaoming say that he would pay, Mandela was embarrassed instead.
Entertaining two four-digit beings was no problem, as it was always good to befriend powerhouses of this level, especially if there were some favors to be gained. If the other party paid, the favor would fade.
"No, no, no, there's no need. It's just a small favor, you two don't need to pay."
"Then thank you."
Wang Xiaoming also understood Mandela's meaning.
"I will remember this favor. If there is anything you need help with in the future, and you can contact me, I will definitely help."
"Then thank you very much."
Gaining the favor he wanted, Mandela was very happy and immediately ordered his men to find the person.
The assistant took people to find the source of the information, and soon found the eyewitness of the Ghost Species, bringing him to Wang Xiaoming.
As soon as the person was brought in, Leticia immediately stepped forward to inquire, and the other party clearly told Leticia what he had seen.
According to the other party's statement, Leticia, as a Vampire of the Divine Might, could clearly judge that what the other party saw was indeed a Vampire, and a pureblood Vampire, which was the royal family among Vampires!
Only she and her sister remained of the Vampire royal family.
So, that Vampire was her sister! As for why her sister, who had fallen into a monster, could move around normally outside, that was something that could only be clarified after seeing her.
After receiving the news, Wang Xiaoming immediately took Leticia away from Salamandra and headed towards the area where the Ghost Species was discovered.
Although Wang Xiaoming could be sure that they wouldn't find the discovered Vampire pureblood after arriving at that place, they still had to go and take a look. At least, this was the only clue they had been able to find after searching for half a month, which was already very rare.
The Little Garden was so big, in Leticia's opinion, it would be normal to not find any clues for hundreds of years. They had only been searching for a short time and had already found a clue, so they definitely had to go and take a look.
After Wang Xiaoming arrived at the scene with Leticia, they really found a clue.
The place where the Ghost Species was seen was a primeval forest, but even in the Northern Border, there should be sparse forests with some greenery, yet this was a blood-red forest.
"This is the blessing of the Ghost Species. This forest has been given the power of a Vampire, it has been Ghost Species-ified."
Leticia looked at the blood-red forest in surprise. As a Vampire, she was most familiar with this kind of power.
"So, there really are Vampires appearing here."
Wang Xiaoming reached out and touched the crimson tree trunk next to him. Through his palm, he could even feel the throbbing under the bark, as if there was a heart beating.
"But, why give this area the blessing of the Ghost Species?"
Leticia also stroked the tree trunk, feeling the power of the Ghost Species within, frowning her little eyebrows.
"There is no one here in the Northern Border related to Vampires, why would she leave a Vampire Species blessing here? Moreover, judging from the traces, the Ghost Species blessing was left not long ago, only in the last few days."
"It's like..."
"It's like it was left on purpose, right?"
Wang Xiaoming said the words Leticia wanted to say from the side.
"That's right."
Leticia nodded affirmatively.
Why would a Vampire deliberately leave a Ghost Species blessing to declare her existence? This behavior seemed to be calling for others to find her, and now in the Little Garden, the only ones who would look for Vampires were Leticia and Wang Xiaoming, this duo.
