When the light that enveloped the city faded, Corgi felt as if his heart was frozen by the ice that covered the city.

"Lord Corgi, has Lord Beelzebub failed?" a demon asked, mostly a question that was now common to everyone in the Legion of Hell.

Corgi didn't say a word, just quickly waved his scythe-like forelimbs, and in the next second, the demon who had just asked this question was already in a different place, and his body shook a few times before he collapsed in front of all the other demons.

"That lord is not going to die. Corgi's eyes were completely bloodshot, "That Lord is the one I swore to serve all my life, how could Lord Beelzebub, who has such great power, be defeated by humans like this." ”

"But the whole city is frozen over, and if the Lord is not dead, why can't we feel anything. "Someone shouted something like that in the legion.

Shut up! Corgi looked at the demons in front of him, at this moment he actually had the idea of wanting to kill them all, how could these guys say that the adult died like this, I don't admit it, I will never admit it!

Corgi took a step forward, and all the demons were immediately forced back a few steps back by the thick killing intent emanating from him. As Beelzebub's deputy, the Corgi is the most loyal subordinate, and he is also very powerful, and it can be said that in this legion, there is no demon who is the opponent of the Corgi.

"Continue to complete our mission. Corgi said word by word, "No matter what happens to that adult, the mission he gave us will never change, give me action now!"

All the demons looked at each other, if even that lord had already been defeated, what was the point of continuing to fight in this place now? they should retreat now, how could they stay here for the sake of a guy who was already dead.

Through the gap in the window of the room, Jon observed the Legion of Hell's every move.

"The earthquake has stopped, Chief of Staff. "I don't know what happened, but it looks like Team X has succeeded, right?"

"It worked. Jon looked back and said, "It looks like the city of Akureyli has been completely frozen, and judging by the performance of the Hell Legion so far, they must have lost something very important, and there is no doubt that the Demon King who is their leader is dead." ”

"The communication system has also been restored, so that we can reconnect with headquarters. The communications soldiers were pleasantly surprised to sort out the communication equipment, and saw that all the signals had returned to normal, and the only remaining sailors cheered.

"Well done!" Jon shouted excitedly. See, Seth, those guys succeeded, the flame of hope you left behind was passed on by them, we won, this battle is a victory for us humanity!

"But Chief of Staff, those guys don't seem to be ready to retreat. A sailor said.

His words undoubtedly poured cold water on everyone present, and it was true, since their leader was dead, why didn't they retreat?

"We can't let our guard down yet. Jon gave the order to the group, "It's still not time to be unprepared, everyone has to cheer up, those guys might really attack again." ”

"What are you doing in a daze?" the corgi roared at the demons who didn't do anything, "Didn't you hear what I said!?

"There's no need for it anymore, is it?" said a bird-like messenger at him, "Master Beelzebub is dead, you can't continue to deny this fact, the battle is no longer necessary, we should go back." ”

"Are you looking for death?" Corgi said, staring at the bird-like messenger who spoke, "Now that I'm the commander-in-chief, the commander-in-chief appointed by Lord Beelzebub himself, you want to disobey!?"

"But Beelzebub has been defeated!" another voice came, "we are only defeated now, there is no point in continuing to fight, retreat, Lord Corgi!"

"No retreat!" Corgi roared, "You are all Beelzebub-sama's subordinates, you should know that your lord's orders are not allowed to be disobeyed, do you want to betray that lord's trust?huh!?"

"For the dead, it is not necessary to talk about whether to resist the disease or not. A figure jumped from the roof, right next to Corgi, and Corgi immediately felt a great sense of oppression, as if Beelzebub had felt it when he stood beside him.

The visitor straightened up, his face visible to all the demons, and the moment he fully stood up, all the demons present fell to their knees except the corgi, a move they would only take when facing any of the 13 lords.

"Beelzebub's most loyal subordinate, but he doesn't mean to bow down to me?" said the visitor with a smile as he looked at the corgi.

"I will not bow down to anyone but the Lord and Lord Satan. A flash of contempt flashed in Corgi's eyes for the visitor. "Even you are no exception, Mammon. ”

"Then I'll respect you. Mammon dusted off her body, "But you don't seem to have any respect for your soldiers, am I right?"

"These fellows want to disobey Lord Beelzebub's orders. Corgi snorted disdainfully, "Disobedience is absolutely not tolerated, I'm just using my duties as acting commander-in-chief." ”

"Well said. Mammon clapped her hands and laughed, "But you seem to have forgotten one thing, Beelzebub is dead, and his order should be nullified, so it is a very normal thing to look at it, right?"

"What qualifications do you have to say such things?" Corgi raised his voice, "You haven't seen Lord Beelzebub die with your own eyes, and you're not our commander, so you're not in a position to make a big deal out of it!"

"Oh roar, do you say I didn't see Beelzebub with my own eyes?" Mammon seemed to come to her senses suddenly, "but I can tell you that I saw, though only from a distance, but I saw the creature's appearance frozen in ice. ”

"Just being frozen doesn't mean that the adult is dead. Corgi yelled at Mammon, "The scene is just to see Lord Beelzebub frozen in ice, why do you make such a judgment?"

"Even if he hadn't died, that guy would never have been able to lift the ice!" Mammon told the truth in the loudest voice. "You're not close there, so you don't know, the temperature in that city can reach absolute zero right now, even the lava has been frozen, all the molecules stop moving in absolute zero, and even I can't get into it. ”

"Lies, you're lying!" Corgi heard this like five thunderbolts, and he staggered and had to hold on to the wall to gain his footing. "No way, how could that lord be defeated at the hands of humans, you must be lying!"

"I said I wasn't lying, everyone here should have already made up their minds. Mammon shrugged indifferently, "If what I'm saying is 100% a lie, then your men won't believe it at all, right? ”

"We believe what Mammon says. With the exception of the corgi, all the demons who fell to their knees answered almost in unison.

"You see it. Mammon smiled, as if she had expected this to happen. "They all believed what I said, so I guess I'm not telling 100% of the lies. ”

"Even if what you say is true, Lord Beelzebub's final order will still be fulfilled. Corgi still stubbornly retorted.

"I said it at the beginning. Mammon looked at him and said, "Everything is meaningless to the dead. ”

"This is our business, and we don't need outsiders like you to interfere. Corgi glared at Mammon. "We are a legion loyal to the Lord, not to you, and you don't need to take care of everything we do. ”

"But what if I want to take care of it?" said Mammon, still smiling, "and when it comes to that, I'll get straight to the point." Now there are two paths before you, one is to choose allegiance to me, and the other is total destruction. ”

Mammon said the most terrifying words in the smoothest tone that frightened all the demons present, and Corgi finally understood the purpose of his visit, Mammon wanted to bring the original power of Beelzebub under his command, he was such a person who could do anything for his own ends.

"You're daydreaming! even if all of us die, you're never going to get our allegiance!" the corgi yelled at Mammon, the other demons were terrified by the sight, they had never seen the corgi so angry.

"Defuse, Corgi. Mammon didn't pay any attention to Corgi's insults, "I appreciate your loyalty, but times are changing, and your old master can no longer lead you, so it's not a good thing to be loyal to me." ”

"Less rhetoric there. Corgi retorted, "Then I ask you, what if we choose not to be loyal to you?"

"As I said, if you don't choose the first path, then there is only one path left for total destruction. Mammon said without hurry.

"Do you think Master Mephistopheles would allow this to happen?" the corgi asked directly. "It is absolutely not permissible to destroy one of the 13 legions of hell for one's own selfishness. ”

"But no one knows you're alive. Mammon smiled and said, "Everyone knows that you are fighting on this island, but no one knows whether you are dead or alive. Besides, if even Beelzebub fails, do you think anyone will care about you?"

Mammon's words were colder than the cold wind blowing from the frozen city, and even the demons who heard them could not help but shiver.

"Think about it, Corgi. Mammon walked up to the corgi, "You can still retain your loyalty to Beelzebub, I don't care about that, all I want is your military strength." Think about it, you can not only retain the actual command of this legion, but also avenge Beelzebub at the right time, wouldn't you kill two birds with one stone?"

Corgi was finally shaken, and Mammon's every word hit the nail on the head of his heart, as if it had completely gathered the thoughts in his heart. That's right, it's a way to kill two birds with one stone, and I can still remain loyal to Lord Beelzebub, I have to make a choice.

"I agree. After a long silence, Corgi said with a sigh. "From now on we will fight under your command, but one thing is that we are still a legion of Lord Beelzebub, and that will never change. You must also allow us to take revenge on those humans in due course. ”

"That's right. Mammon snapped her fingers, and a blinding pillar of purple light fell from the sky. "So it's time to get out of this place, we have more important things to do. ”

The pillar of light completely enveloped Mammon and Corgi, and with a loud roar, Mammon and all the legions in the area disappeared in an instant, all in full view of Jon who was observing.

"Retreated, they retreated. Jon whispered to the sailors in the room, and after a brief silence, the room was immediately enveloped in a post-triumphant frenzy.

"We've won!" "See, we've won!" "It's not fun, it's not fun! I can beat them at least ten more!" ......

Jon smiled as he looked at the cheerful crowd, but before he knew it, a crystal clear tear slipped gently from the corner of his eye.
