Chapter 46 Elephant Demon
Rabbit Hero carefully looked at the monsters downstairs.
The one who just spoke was an elephant monster with fierce eyes and a centipede-like scar on his face, which spread from above his left eye, winding down and covering most of his face. He looked like a man who was not easy to mess with.
After seeing the waiter approaching them with a flattering smile, the scarred demon grabbed his collar, approached him, and said viciously: "We have five demons staying in the hotel. We need three upper rooms. How many shells do you want?"
The waiter was held by the collar, and his feet were off the ground from time to time. He could only stand on tiptoe to barely keep his body stable. He quickly stretched out a claw and said tremblingly: "One..."
But before he could finish his words, the scarred elephant glared at him, frightening him so much that he trembled all over. So he quickly changed his words and said, "Ten, sir, you only need to give me ten cowrie shells..."
"We have so many monsters, and you only want ten? You must be kidding! Be honest with me and tell me, how many do you want?"
When Scar Elephant Monster heard that it was such a good deal, his face was full of disbelief. He grabbed his collar with his hoof a little harder and shook him a few times, his tone full of threats.
I heard from many monsters that this inn was a bit shady and the waiter was particularly good at cheating. If he hadn't asked several other inns and found no rooms, and the young master was seriously injured, he would not have come to stay here.
Now that he heard such a cheap price, his first thought was that there must be something fishy going on!
The waiter was speechless for a long time. The monster he wanted to trick didn't fall for it, but the monster he didn't dare to trick came to his door on its own initiative. The atmosphere was already so set, it would be unreasonable for him not to trick the monster!
Thinking of this, he hurriedly smiled and said, "This guest is really a discerning person. I admire you. In fact, three upper rooms require a total of 300 shells. I was just afraid that the guests would find it too expensive and could not afford so much, so..."
When he heard the first half of the sentence, the elephant demon loosened his collar and said, "That's better." But when he heard the second half, he angrily grabbed the waiter's collar and said, "Who do you think can't take it..."
"Adao, there's no need to bother with him." A voice appeared behind Scar Elephant and interrupted what he was about to say.
"Hmph!" Scar Elephant seemed to be extremely afraid of the monster behind him. After hearing his words, even if he was still dissatisfied in his heart, he would do as he said.
He loosened the waiter's collar and brushed off the non-existent dust on his body.
Seeing that Scar was so obedient, the demon behind him nodded in satisfaction, and then said to the waiter: "Take us to the room!"
"Okay, guests, please go upstairs." The waiter made a gesture of invitation and lowered his head slightly. Five monsters walked past him. He raised his head carefully and took a look. Only then did he see clearly what the other four monsters looked like except for the scarred elephant monster.
The monster that Scar Elephant was unwilling to fight was wearing a black cloak and was very big. He was also an elephant monster. Only when you got close to him could you smell a bloody smell coming from him.
Behind this elephant, there is a taciturn elephant monster with a very low presence. On the left and right sides are two particularly small monsters, which seem out of place with the other three elephant monsters. They are wearing cloaks and veils, and it is really difficult to tell their species.
However, judging from the attitudes of these monsters towards the elephant monster in the middle, the identity of the elephant in the middle must be complicated.
Feeling a stream of scrutiny, the taciturn elephant demon finally spoke, but his voice sounded flat and even a bit cold, which made the waiter feel inexplicably cold, as if he was falling into an ice cellar.
"I'm only saying this once. If you look at me again, I'll dig your eyes out!"
Upon hearing this, the waiter lowered his head and said, "I dare not, I dare not!"
After saying that, he honestly showed them the way and reminded them to be careful on the stairs from time to time.
Seeing them coming up, Jiang Yuan and Rabbit Man looked at each other and hurried back to the room they had chosen. Before leaving, Jiang Yuan did not forget to call Big Cat who was watching the fun to join them.
After returning to the room and activating the room's built-in defensive barrier, Jiang Yuan found a place to sit down with peace of mind.
Thinking of the elephant monsters she had just seen, Jiang Yuan couldn't help but fall into deep thought: the monster in the middle wearing a black cloak looked very familiar, she must have seen it somewhere...
