Chapter 201 Not exciting enough(1/2)
Pei Renli originally didn't believe in fate or destiny, because he was too idealistic and couldn't prove it.
Now he feels a little more convinced.
Hundreds of demon kings are running around in this endless snowfield, and everyone they meet knows each other, which is very magical.
However, the three girls who had to go into the cave to avoid the snowstorm should not be in the mood to think about all this mess.
When Kent looked up, they panicked.
When Pei Renli looked up, they were panicked.
When Dürer looked over, they were also panicked. They probably realized who Dürer was only after he came in belatedly.
Pei Renli's Demon King system is a little different from others. He will only be dragged into the Demon King Arena when he is a contestant.
This also made it difficult for Pei Renli to find suitable communication opportunities, except for having some conversations with the Elegant Demon King Miles.
But others don't have his problem. As a spectator in the stands, you have time to chat with the people around you.
Dürer is very famous for his outstanding performance and is highly discussed among devils.
So if you look at it from the perspective of those three girls, one in this cave is the lizard man who tortured them, one is a perverted mage who is good at controlling tentacles, and the other is a super man who doesn't even dare to mess with the first two.

Pei Renli didn't know the details, but he knew that every time he looked at them, the three of them trembled in fright, and when they looked up again, they trembled again.
This kind of reaction made Pei Renli find it quite funny, and he even wanted to try it a few more times to see if it would frighten them to pee...
Of course, entering a cave can avoid the snowstorm, but it cannot avoid the low temperature. It is very necessary to build a bonfire.
The only fuel for the bonfire was the branches piled in the innermost part of the cave. Not only did Pei Renli and the three of them have to pass by, but the corpse of the snow-storm beast that was skinned by Durer and was bloody was also thrown there to get the fuel.
It’s really not a heart-friendly job.
The three of them were frightened, and their movements were almost like thieves. If they made the slightest sound while holding the branch, they would immediately crouch down with their heads in their hands.
Especially when they saw Kent stuffing the crispy bones into his mouth and chewing them like biscuits and snacks, they didn't know if it reminded them of some bad associations, and they were trembling even as they hugged the branch back.
After struggling for a while, they finally raised the bonfire.
Compared to Pei Renli and the other two who were not very particular, the three of them built a simple stove using random stones.
Theoretically speaking, Pei Renli can also do it. The teacher at the Adventurer School taught it in class. But it was just theory and no personal practice.
After all, the first-year students will not have the opportunity to sleep in the wild, so the teachers will just brush it off and wait until the need arises.
Then Pei Renli saw them take out a large soup pot from a palm-sized pocket and place it on the fire, as if they were planning to stew some soup.
This is the dimensional bag.
There are many styles of dimensional bags, the only difference is the size of the capacity. A standard dimensional bag has a space of thirty cubic meters.
It doesn't sound like much, but it's enough to perfectly fit all the travel supplies you need.
Pei Renli also wanted a dimensional bag, which not only could hold more things but also save more effort, but the price was ridiculously expensive, and even if he used the Demon King system to redeem it, the required reputation would be quite a lot.
In short, for now he can only look around and still has to carry a heavy backpack.
As time passed, a fragrance slowly floated out, smelling like mushroom soup.
Because there is a dimensional bag, they don't have to worry about carrying weight, so these three people actually brought wooden bowls and wooden spoons. They felt that the stew was almost done, and they planned to drink some hot soup to drive away the cold.
Maybe when you focus on one thing, you can temporarily forget your fear. They hummed a little song while filling the bowl with mushroom soup.
The three of them usually wear black clothes and leather armor, and also wear face towels, but after all, they have never mastered the ability to drink soup through cloth, and they still have to take off their face towels when eating.
As expected, the three of them are all human and appear to be about the same age.
In the icy and snowy environment, it was really nice to drink hot soup, and everyone showed happy expressions.
Then he saw Pei Renli and the other three standing directly against them. At that moment, he remembered where he was and shuddered again.
To be honest, Pei Renli has forgotten the names of these three people. His only impression of them is single ponytails, medium-long hair and buns.
Kent doesn't care much either. He looks at humans just like humans look at lizard people, and they all look very similar.
Not to mention Dürer, who was busy using stones to scrape off the remaining fat on the snow beast's skin. It could be said that as long as the three of them did not make any suspicious moves, Pei Renli and the other three had no time to talk to them. They were shocked.
My first reaction was a bit pretentious.
"Sister, I leave it to you."
"Yes, sister, please tell me."
"Why me?"
"Because you are the oldest."
"Don't say I'm old!"
I vaguely heard this voice coming from their side, and then I saw the one with a single ponytail (actually named Mara) standing up, and said a little stuttering:
"W-do you want to try it?"
These words made Duleho stand up immediately:
"OK."
He was not polite.
Although I have already eaten the beef jerky that Pei Renli brought, it was only dry food for emergency use after all, and it did not taste that good.
Barbarians who can chew raw meat without any concern do not refuse to eat delicious food.
Kent lazily lit the fire, waved his hand and said:
"I'll forget it, we lizard people don't like to eat food that's too hot."
This habit is a bit like that of a cat, which is afraid of burning its tongue.
Pei Renli felt that even the lizard men were very talkative, and if they drank a mouthful of soup, they would probably spill it all over the floor.
"Give me a bowl too."
Mara looked at Pei Renli and felt a little reluctant, or unwilling to contact him, but he still served him a bowl of mushroom soup.
After Pei Renli got the soup bowl and thanked him casually, he stretched out his hand and quickly drew a few runes.
"Detect toxicity."
When he saw that the mushroom soup in the bowl did not light up with any strange-colored magical light, he made sure it was not poisonous before taking his mouthful.
Dürer only picked up the spoon after seeing Pei Renli drink it.
"Thank you, it tastes good."
"As long as you like it..."
Seeing the awkward look on Mara's face, Pei Renli also felt that he was being bullied.
He felt that he should ease the embarrassment by explaining what happened last time. He really didn't use his tentacles to take off Mara's pants on purpose.
But if you talk directly, the other person's always fearful attitude is not conducive to communication. Maybe you should make a joke first to liven up the atmosphere.
So he thought for a while and said to Mara, who looked constipated:
"Don't worry about the size, you will grow out of it later."
This made Mara want to curse, but couldn't open her mouth...
–‐‐——–‐‐——
Pei Renli's bad mouth is okay when it comes to serious matters, but once he is in a relaxed state, he dares to say anything, and his mouth immediately loses control.
Fortunately, Mara didn't care, or in other words, she did care, but she didn't jump up and scold her.
When everyone drank the pot of soup and everyone just sat on the ground to digest their food, Mara said:
"Thank you very much for letting us come in for shelter. To express our gratitude, we can tell you some information about the snowfield."
Pei Renli became interested as soon as he heard this:
"What information?"
Mara hid behind, probably because he didn't want to get too close to Perenli.
It seemed that he was completely disliked.
"We learned from other veteran demon kings that you must not walk randomly when you are confused in the snowfield. If you do not follow the prescribed direction, you will immediately get lost in the snowfield and never get out."
At first I was a little surprised why it was called the Confused Snowfield, since it is really possible to get lost.
"In addition, there is a particularly strong monster guarding the end point, but it will only stay in place, so when passing by, usually everyone first tries to attract its attention, and then takes the opportunity to run over quickly."
"Then do you want to come with us? It might be safer this way."
Of course it was not Perenli or Kent who said this, only Dürer would propose the idea of traveling together.
"Each group's route and destination are different, so we can't go with you. Which direction are you going? Maybe we know some information."
Kent, who was originally staying on the other side of the bonfire, walked up behind Dürer at some point and reached out to hold him down as he tried to get the map.
Pei Renli acted as if he hadn't seen it:
