Chapter 465: Is It a Trap that the Main Quest of Devil May Cry 4 Is so Simple?

Chapter 465 The main mission of Devil May Cry IV...is there any pitfalls in being so simple?

"clang."

Soon, the last scarecrow demon was torn apart under Li You's stick, and black mist-like blood exploded and floated away. Li You slammed the long threaded stick on the ground, declaring the end of the battle.

Nero had already put away his sword and pistol, came near him, and looked at him in a daze.

"What on earth are you..."

Li You smiled at him and said, "Are those ordinary citizens okay?"

He put emphasis on the word "ordinary citizens."

Nero: “…”

"It's okay, they... were not injured, but a few of our order knights were injured."

After a pause, Nero answered Li You's question.

Li You nodded: "That's good. After all, ordinary citizens can't be involved."

Hearing his repeated emphasis, Nero lost his mind for a moment and remembered this guy in his heart.

I just said casually, why are you so vindictive?

But no matter what, it was a fact that this man had just saved Ji Liye. In view of this, although Nero was originally a bad-tempered person and liked to be sarcastic, he could not retaliate at this time.

"Anyway, I think I should thank you, you saved..."

Nero was interrupted mid-sentence. He looked around in shock. Except for the seriously injured Josh, who was sitting aside to rest, the other two knights of the order were spreading out next to him with swords in hand, faintly looking at Li You. Surrounded.

"What are you doing?" Nero asked subconsciously.

The two knights of the order looked at each other, and then the team leader with an injured shoulder said: "This person is not a resident of the city. A stranger has the power to kill demons. It must be confirmed that he is not an illegal intruder." Do you have any ill intentions towards the city?”

Nero was a little confused: "But he just saved you, Ji Liye and the children! You want to question him now?"

The knight of the Order next to him lowered his head slightly, and the team leader only hesitated for a moment before saying, "This is the rule of the Order!"

Nero was annoyed: "I'm going to screw you... screw your rules!"

"You all believe in Sparta, so shouldn't you learn from his heroism? Ask Sparta if he would treat people who helped him like this?"

As soon as these words came out, Li You looked at him sideways.

In fact, Li You was also a little confused before Nero quarreled with the two knights of the Order.

Why are you surrounding me? And why do you think surrounding me is useful? Just you two?

Li You thinks they are quite funny.

Even when you are not injured, can you withstand my casual blow?

But as soon as Nero said these words, they attracted all their hatred.

After all, although the truth is this, the way Nero speaks is extremely disrespectful in the Demon Sword Order, which worships Sparta as a god.

The squad leader who confronted Nero became visibly red and warm on the spot. In the battle just now, his helmet had disappeared. At this time, he lifted up the replacement hood, revealing a face that looked like a passerby, and said angrily: "You are just a guy doing dirty work. Dare you disrespect the gods?"

As soon as these words came out, Nero's expression also changed. He quickly glanced at Ji Liye beside him, and his voice became colder: "Can you say one more thing?"

The two immediately faced each other.

Nero didn't want Ji Liye to hear about the "dirty work", and the team leader who was confronting him was frightened by Nero's momentum, but he couldn't bear to give in, so he resisted.

Li You looked at it and felt that maybe he should say something: "You two..."

"Everyone!"

A voice sounded before him, attracting everyone's attention.

Li You turned around and saw Ji Liye, who had been protected by Nero, coming to the two of them. Both sleeves of her dress were torn, but not because of accidental injuries. She tore them off herself and bandaged the wounds for Nero, Josh and the team leader.

"We are all companions of the cult, so there is no need to argue." Ji Liye clasped her hands together in a prayer gesture, "No matter what, thanks to the blessing of the gods and thanks to everyone's hard work, no one is in danger of life."

"The most important thing now is to send everyone to treatment and return the children to the orphanage. As for this kind person who came to help, let me take him to see Credo, right? I believe Credo's judgment , can convince everyone.

"What do you think? Tonio, Sagan?"

What she looked at were the two Knights of the Order who could still fight.

Perhaps due to the influence of her gentle voice, or perhaps because the name Credo in her mouth had enough credibility and deterrence, the knights of the order calmed down.

Tonio was the team leader who was confronting Nero. He was still a little angry at this time, but he still put away his sword and gave a dull "hmm".

Li You watched quietly, unfazed by the overestimation of the order's knights.

But the brown-haired girl in front of her deserves more attention.

The girl's name is already known from Nero's mouth. She is the heroine of the fourth generation, Jilie.

Of course, Ji Liye's more famous deed is that in Devil May Cry 5, she broke through the restrictions of race and evolved into a brand new species-telephone booth.

...Actually, it’s because in the fifth generation, Ji Liye, who was obviously Nero’s CP and the heroine of the fourth generation, was so miserable that she never showed her face. She only contacted Nero through a phone booth in the end, so she was called a phone booth. It is her true nature.

Li You even remembered a comic strip he had read before, in which a telephone booth gave birth to a little telephone booth...

"Pfft." He couldn't help laughing.

Everyone turned their heads: "?"

Li You's expression remained unchanged: "Don't worry, I think of happy things."

Nero: "...?"

This man is really strange.

"...Well, if I understand correctly, I should leave with this lady now?" Li You smiled and forcibly brought the topic back, "Excuse me, who is that Credo? ?”

Of course, he asked this question, and he actually knew it very well.

Phone booth... No, Ji Liye is just an ordinary member of the Demonic Sword Order without any special status. The only difference may be her gentle personality, sweet appearance, and her brother who is the leader of the knights, Credo.

Forduna Primary School's award-winning essay: "My Brother, the Team Leader".

——Of course this is just a joke. Ji Liye is popular because of her beauty and gentleness. Credo also relied on his strong strength, firm faith, and unparalleled loyalty to become the leader of the knights. He has won the trust of the Pope and the knights of the order.

It was precisely because of this that Ji Liye proposed to take Li You to see Credo, and everyone agreed.

As for Li You, on the surface he listened to Nero's explanation of Credo's identity, but in his mind he was thinking about whether to follow Ji Liye.

After all, judging from the game, Credo also has a bad temper. If it is discovered that he really broke in illegally, it is uncertain how he will react.

At this moment, the system prompt beeped.

【bite! 】

[First contact has been completed. 】

[Final confirmation - Your main mission in this world is to make Nero a qualified demon hunter and thwart the conspiracy of the Demon Sword Order. 】

[Note: You will not be able to leave the City of Destiny until the mission is completed; the legal status of "tourist" has been prepared for you. 】

【Wish you good luck! 】

Li You raised his eyebrows.

It has been a long time since the system prepared a legal identity for him when traveling through time. To be precise, this extra service was basically available in the world at the beginning, but later on the system directly touched it. Probably because he has become stronger. Anyway, the identity problem in the later stage is basically solved by himself. This time the system was unusually diligent, saving Li You a lot of trouble.

Apart from anything else, from the performance of Tonio, the three knights of the Order, Li You was keenly aware of a fact that he had not known before: the Demon Sword Order was probably quite xenophobic.

This is indeed a fact. Although it is not shown in the game, it is mentioned in the official novel.

However, compared to the sudden diligence of the system, Li You is more concerned about this main mission.

Let Nero become a qualified demon hunter and thwart the conspiracy of the Order? Isn't this the original main plot?

Of course, this does not mean that this kind of mission is not difficult at all. When he first crossed over, the main mission of Biochemical 2 was similar. After all, if he could not complete the mission and escape from Raccoon City, he would also be dead.

But Devil May Cry 4 is different. The City of Destiny will not be destroyed like Raccoon City, but a large number of demons will emerge in the end. Even ordinary people, as long as they are smart, have a chance to get Nero and Dante to solve the problem on their own, and the main mission will be completed automatically, right?

What's more, to this day, with his strength, it is really not difficult to complete this kind of main mission.

Is it because Devil May Cry 4 was supposed to have appeared several worlds ago, so it's so simple, or is it... there's a pitfall?

Li You felt that he had to think about this issue carefully.

【bite! 】

[Contact with the residents of this world has been completed, the system is being updated, and new world rewards will be drawn soon. 】

[Extraction in progress...extraction completed. 】

[Please choose one item from the drawn items as your reward. 】

Li You temporarily put aside the questions about the main mission and looked at the three props he drew.

[Stone of Life: A soul stone refined by alchemy, which can restore injuries. 】

[Devil's Stone: A soul stone refined through alchemy, which can restore magic power. 】

[Holy Water: Can resist demons and cause damage to enemies. 】

The three Devil May Cry game props are all basic consumables and are in line with the system inertia. If he could only choose one, Li You picked the Devil's Stone, which could be used to restore his magic power.

"Ordinary."

After confirming the system information, Li You also "understood" who Credo was through Nero's narration, so he nodded and said: "Then I will go meet this knight leader."

Now that it was clear what they were going to do, the three knights of the Order, Nero, and Gillie began to move.

The injured Tonio and Josh went to heal their injuries, the uninjured Sagan escorted the children back to the orphanage, and Ji Liye accompanied Li You to see Credo.

As for Nero, although he was also injured, the baby's physique was different from ordinary people. After Ji Liye bandaged him, he can now move without any hindrance.

However, even though the group of people had different destinations, they still walked together on the way to the city.

On the way, Nero was still gently waving his injured right hand at Ji Liye: "Look? I'm fine." Ji Liye looked worried.

Li You looked at the long bloodstains that oozed from the bandage on his hand, extending from his forearm to the back of his hand, and thought that it was okay, and that something would happen in two days.

After walking a short distance, they were almost near the hospital. Before leaving, the captain of the Order Knights, Tonio, came over and whispered to Nero: "You are disrespectful to the gods, I will report this to the captain!"

Nero looked indifferent: "Whatever you want."

"Humph!" Tonio wanted to shake his sleeves hard to show his disdain for Nero, but he had a shoulder injury and could only choose to glare at him.

Then Nero put on the headphones on his neck and began to hum a little song.

Tonio blushed again, but for the sake of Ji Liye, he did not have an attack and hurried away with Josh.

Soon, the remaining Order Knight Sagan also led the children to another path.

Li You had no impression of this area in the game, so he asked Nero: "Are we going to...?"

Nero took off his headphones. He originally just wanted to piss off Tonio, but now he answered Li You's question straightforwardly: "To my sword courtyard!"

"My sword courtyard?"

It was obviously a European-style town and cult, but suddenly a very Japanese name popped up. And Li You searched his memory and didn't find any relevant content.

Is there this place in Devil May Cry 4?

Nero explained seriously: "My sword courtyard was the headquarters of the cult more than ten years ago. But now the new headquarters of the cult has been built, it has completed its mission, and now it is a resting place for the knights of the cult. If there is nothing else, Credo is usually there."

"Is that so." Li You had a guess in his heart. The old headquarters of the knights of the cult seemed to exist only in the background setting.

He didn't say anything more, and he and Nero followed Ji Liye one after the other and walked towards my sword courtyard.

But Nero couldn't sit still. After walking for a while, he couldn't help but ask Li You: "You guys, you fought well just now! Do you have experience fighting demons?"

Li You thought about the big ass and fire demons he killed in the Dark Soul world, and nodded: "Yes."

"Hey! I knew it!" Nero laughed happily, "Ordinary people don't have your strength! Even in the Magic Sword Cult, you can probably rank in the top five."

Li You raised his eyebrows: "Oh? Top five?"

Nero didn't understand Li You's meaning at all, and smiled: "That's right! So you don't have to be too good-tempered. Your strength is here, and you don't have to pay attention to some people's embarrassment! Those people only have how to make themselves a "glorious knight" in their minds, but in fact they have even forgotten the basic spirit of knights!"

"Nero..." Ji Liye in front couldn't help turning back and whispered a reminder, and Nero immediately ended the topic: "Okay, I won't say anything."

Ji Liye was also a little helpless, but she didn't blame Nero. From her expression, Li You could see that she generally agreed with Nero's point of view.

"As expected of a young couple."

Then we arrived at my sword academy soon.

Pushing open the heavy wooden door covered with dust, my sword academy was bustling with people, which was completely different from the city.

After all, this is the headquarters of the Knights of the Order, and it is natural for the knights to gather here. Li You saw many people busy with their own things, of course, most of them were practicing swords, so the roar of engines resounded in my sword academy.

"Buzz buzz buzz--!!"

If you don't know, you might think you encountered the Ghost Fire Knights bombing the streets.

But their level of nuisance is not bad. If everyone is equipped with Nero's big sword, then the Knights can really change their name.

Although many Knights of the Order cast strange eyes at Li You and Nero, after all, with Ji Liye leading the way, no one came up to ask.

Li You also noticed that although he was unwelcome because he was an outsider, Nero mostly received unfriendly eyes.

"It seems that the Knights of the Order are not only xenophobic, but also not lax in their internal affairs?" Li You guessed, but Nero looked accustomed to it.

The three walked towards the innermost building of our sword academy, stepping on the wooden steps one by one. Every time Nero and Li You took a step, it would make a sad sound of being crushed.

Nero whispered to Li You: "Every time I am called by Credo, I have to be careful when walking on this staircase, so as not to crush them."

Li You just smiled and said nothing.

The Knight Commander's office is on the top floor. Ji Liye knocked on the door and went in. She saw a man in a platinum robe and a majestic face sitting behind his desk, processing documents.

He had a dark brown back hair, a tuft of finely trimmed beard on his chin, and a light golden Knight Sword of the Order was placed next to him, and the shape was different.

This is naturally Credo, the current leader of the Knights of the Order, Ji Liye's brother.

He looked at Li You and the other two and said in surprise: "Ji Liye, Nero? What happened? And who is this person...?"
