Having completed the doctrine of shipping with the River Styx, Feige returns to the siege weapons camp. He was immediately told that the Hellpurgite Kurdan was waiting for him in his tent. As for what this "partner" came to do with him, Fei Qi had basically guessed in his heart. All the high-ranking demons in the entire first layer of Hell knew that Lord Bayer was about to organize a conquest of another world, and he had already warned Kuldan that there was news in the Styx Shipping that could be used to conquer the world.

"Lord Kurdan. Fitch entered the tent to find the Hellpurgatory sitting alone, holding a wine glass made of Balor's horns, the red liquor emitting a scorching aroma. There was an extra golden chain around its neck, and a fist-sized skull hung from it, and I don't know what kind of creature it was. "When you come, you will miss the distance, and you hope to forgive your sins. ”

"Don't come to this. Kurdan craned his neck, drank the wine, wiped his mouth with the back of his hand, and said, "The fire dwarf must have told you, right? Everything is going well, and all the cannons that can be sold have been sold." Although the remaining devils still have purchasing power, there are already devil lords who have sniffed out that something is wrong. I wonder what the Demon King means, do you want to continue?"

"When has the Demon King made such a specific matter clear? Just remember two things: these are tests, and the Demon King has no last resort. Feige smiled slightly and said mysteriously: "I personally feel that the current number of sales is enough." We have set off a wave of change, but we can't simply assume that a wave will make a difference. ”

"Well, I see......" Courdan nodded deeply, like a scholar who had discovered the truth. "I'm now coming to realize that the Demon King has a lot of plans. Feige, I just came out of Bayer, and the goal of the next expedition to another world has been set, three targets are attacking at the same time, and one of them is what I provided. A place called the Second World, have you heard of it?"

Feige shook his head, and then said, "Since this second world is provided by you, let's talk about the situation." I'm definitely looking for a world to explore, and if the second world is good, then I'll be able to settle down and prepare for it. ”

"I've heard about military merit rewards, and it's right for you to leave the siege weapons camp. Before you talk about the second world, you have to give me a thorough understanding: this magic light killing cannon and the other world really didn't you plan in advance?"

"How do you think I have this ability?" Feige winked slyly, "I just want to say: I execute." ”

At first glance, such an answer sounds like an affirmation of the existence of a plan, except that the mastermind is not Feige, he is only the executor—and Courdan feels as if he understands it again. "Adults are thoughtful and can grasp the subtleties, and this is where all devils should learn. Oh, the second world......"

Later, Courdan told Feige how he found the Styx shipping and how he spent a lot of money to get the coordinates and details of the Second World. "If it weren't for the fact that I made a fortune in the business of the Demon Penetration, I wouldn't have been able to afford to buy Second World information! ”

"What do you think of this second world?

"It's worth it, it's worth it!" said Kurdan, licking his lips and smiling. "As soon as I heard that guy Bayer was going to collect information about the conquerable world, I immediately went. I know that as soon as I change hands, I can sell the information, and I can earn back what I spent before. But at the time, I was thinking: Will this be a test for the Demon King?, and finally I decided to seize this opportunity and become the Devil General of the Second World, or the one in charge. It's a status I would never have been able to touch before. ”

"The devil must be self-motivated, after all, advancement is the inherent power of all devils!" Feige clenched his fists and said to Kurdan, "Since you are the commander, then I want to join the army of this second world conquest, what do you think? This is a formal requirement, and I am also a devil general, you know." ”

"No problem, I agreed, I'm here for this. "That guy at Bayer is a little unhappy with my quest to control one world, but if other devils offer it two other worlds, then I have a third chance that it can barely endure it." But you have to be prepared, the Second World expeditionary forces won't be too big. ”

"Don't think about one hit, it's better to stretch the fight a little longer. Seeing that Courdan was a little confused, Feige said, "As with the events that preceded them, there will be many events to come, and they will all be part of a larger plan. The Lord had a good grasp of the devil's mind and knew what was going on in hell. Let me warn you: for the devil, it is hell that matters. ”

"What does that mean? I can't think of it, can you remind me?"

"Zariel is in the Bronze Fortress, near the Maggot's Den, and you can find her by following the aura of divine power. Feige lowered his voice and said, "She's still alive, she's alive and well, and she gets some blood drawn every once in a while." ”

"Hell's fires! I ......" Kurdan covered his mouth and quickly lowered his head, his head full of thoughts. Zariel may not be dead, a speculation that has been circulating among some of the older Hellpurgators. Every devil has been cut down after overthrowing his former boss, and rumors that Zariel is still alive have been out of line with common sense since they appeared. Kurdan had always thought that the rumor had been spread by Bayer in order to find the remnants of Zariel. However, the meaning of Feige's words is completely different.

Zariel's blood was drawn?Courdan immediately guessed the meaning behind it. Bayer is a good hand at commanding the army to fight, but its blood and strength are not very strong. Don't look at the twelve angel heads hanging from Bayer's waist, but none of them are real Blazing Divine Servants, they are all disguised by low-level angels. The low- and middle-level devils may not be able to see it, but this kind of falsification can't hide it from a shrewd guy like Kurdan. If Bayer had left its army and fought the Blazing Celestial Servants one-on-one, the result would have been absolutely lifeless.

Bayer's theory of using Zariel's blood to boost his bloodline and thus his combat effectiveness is simple enough to explain why Zareel is still alive. Near the maggot's den, follow the divine power to search, these two prompts are equivalent to telling Kurdan: the Demon King always knows where Zariel is. Needless to say, the Deep Hell Purgatory himself has formed a set of theories and plans in his mind, which is about Zariel's return to the throne under the command of the Demon King, and the radical change in the bloody battle strategy of Hell.

"If she's going to come back, then why is that guy allowed to take the position?"

"Zariel was once a Blazing Divine Servant, she experienced Fall, but she lacked torture. That lord is testing every devil, why should Zariel avoid this step?" Feige pushed behind Kurdan's thoughts: "It's a good thing to conquer another world, the devil hasn't done such an activity for a long time, and Bayer controls two-thirds, which is even better. Kurdan, you can try to deduce what will happen after the next defensive battle of the bloody battle begins?"

"Of course, it is the magic through the light to kill the cannon and make meritorious contributions, and the defense can win without much effort, and the demons have suffered heavy casualties. After that......" Kurdan took a breath of cold air, and then said: "The battle achievements are too great, and the various war zones will be in a business dilemma for a while. As a result, the importance of conquering other worlds to obtain soul and material income has increased, and Bayer has even continued to increase the intensity of the conquest. ”

"Feige, I don't know if you've heard of it, but ...... The Demon King must know. In order to strengthen its position, Bayer formed an alliance with the five-headed dragon god, and spent a great deal of money on it. Oh...... I get it. Bayer's wealth is not as much as it claims, so the sudden increase in military spending will make it very passive, and even on the verge of bankruptcy! Therefore, it has to shift its focus to conquest, and make up for the shortfall in the record reward brought by the Demon Penetration Light Killing Cannon from the continuous attack! As the devils become fond of attacking again, Zarel has a suitable reason and opportunity to re-...... How could I never have imagined that Bayer's rule would be so fragile that a little weight could ruin the scales!"

'I didn't think about it...... 'Feige laughed silently. He wanted to see how big Kuldan's brain hole could be, so he raised his hand slightly and said in an encouraging tone: "It's good, but you have to continue." ”

Kurdan's eyes widened, perfectly round, and grew all the way to the physical limits of the Deep Hell Purgatory. "And I think about it, let me think about it. ”

It struggled for a moment, then slapped itself on the thigh: "Yes! I see! The devil entered the conquest, and Bayer had to put his energy into it, so its mastery of the Bronze Fortress decreased." I can take the opportunity to go to Zariel......"

"I didn't say that, I didn't encourage you, don't mention me. Feige reached out and patted Courdan on the shoulder. A lustful demon filmed the Deep Hell Purgatory by filming his subordinates, and the Deep Hell Purgatory actually took it for granted - fortunately, this scene was not seen by others. "Look ahead, is there anything else?"

"It's ......," Kurdan choked. It was already a little powerless, and it only felt that it had lived for thousands of years, and its brain had never hurt so much. "What else? What else can there be? No, if I can't think of it, the Demon King will think I'm useless, right? I have to figure it out!"

It's a good subject for Feige to study: he wants to see how far a Hellpurgite can think and what he can come up with in order to control the situation in the Second World.

By observing the bloody battle, Feige came to a conclusion: if the devil was serious, no world could fight the terrible devil army alone. He betrayed the coordinates of the Second World, but could not allow the Second World to be quickly occupied. Especially at the beginning, Fei Qi wanted to control the situation, and before the devil understood it, at least completely destroy the portal from the second world to the Yongli Continent, and even completely eliminate the possibility of the devil going to the Yongli Continent through the second world as a springboard.

The Divine Kingdom of the Goddess of Truth and Thunder has protected the Yongli Continent, but the Goddess is no longer there, how strong can the power of the Kingdom of God be? At the beginning, Fei Qi had planned that he would be in the devil's army in the second world anyway, and he had no other goal except for the second world teleportation array! It's just that now that he has the ability to influence the situation, then try to let the devil and the second world fight a bad battle, and the more it drags on, the better. Taking advantage of other people's fights to develop on your own, this is also a good way to become stronger.

The commander-in-chief of the Second World Expeditionary Army, the Deep Hell Purgatory Kurdan, racked his brains to drill the tip of the bull's horns, and its appearance was heart-wrenching and funny. Seeing that it was pitiful, Feitch took the wine from his subordinates from the tent and poured it into Kurdan's horn cup. Kuldan lifted the cup, and the moment his lips pressed it to it, his eyes suddenly lit up! It looked at the cup in its hand, which was made from the horns of the Barlow Flame Demon.

"Bloody battle! Bloody battle! Bloody battle!!! How did I forget the demons!" Kurdan was panting, but said excitedly: "The demons will be killed by the Demon Piercing Light Killing Cannon, but they will always come back! Although they are chaotic, they are not stupid, and they will always find a way to deal with the cannons! So, when Bayer has to lead a large number of demons to continue to fight, the demons will make one or more violent counterattacks! Yes, you are right, don't think that the victory will be decided by one blow, the battle will be very long...... I should use the opportunity of the conquest to train my subordinates, and the fundamental point is still in hell! I understand, this time I understand everything!"

Feige "got it", and he immediately restrained his smile and made a profound look. Kuldan understood, made a "shhhh It blinked and shoved the cup in its hand into Feige's arms, "This one is for you." ”

Taking the cup, Feige felt a fiery energy pass through his fingers. This kind of heat doesn't hurt the desire demon, and it only feels like drinking coffee. "This horn cup isn't ordinary, is it?"

"It was given to me by an adventurer from another world. I accidentally saved her life, and she probably thought I was there on purpose...... Anyway, this is the horn of the Lord of the Barlow Flame Demon, and the cup is called the Abyss Horn. The drink placed inside will bring fiery energy, promote the recovery of the devil, or simply lift the spirits. If you put spirit coins in it, it will be able to heal serious injuries and even regenerate limbs. This cup will be of much more use to you than it is for me. ”

Feige nodded and put away the glass. He doesn't need to express gratitude, this attitude shows that it was all an "equivalent exchange of benefits" before, and no one owes anyone anything after that. "When are you going to attack Second World?"

"I need to prepare a little more, and judging by the situation on the front, the demons are organizing a new attack. Kurdan pinched his chin and said, "Considering the overall situation, I will enter the second world before the next defensive battle begins, that is, within two weeks." It's a bit hasty, but as long as you can establish a front-line offensive base and ensure the teleportation channel, it's fine. There will definitely be a lot of troublesome things after the next defensive battle, and it is better to get out early. ”

"Since I have officially applied to join and become the Devil General, the position of commander of this siege weapons camp ......"

"Yes, you did the right thing, I should learn from you. I'll deal with the follow-up commander's affairs, you're a demon now, and it's still not easy to come forward. By the way, aren't you advanced yet?"

Feige flashed an evil aura, and Kurdan was shocked as he expected. "More than three times stronger than me? How did you do that? Forget it, when I didn't ask. "Without the Demon King's support, Kurdan doesn't think a Demon of Lust would be so strong. It no longer had any doubts, stood up and said, "This time I go to the second world, if I accumulate merit and soul to make me a territory devil, I will make you a territory crystal, and wait for you to become a high-level ...... You don't need to be high-level, now your aura is enough to urge the territory crystal. There are many benefits to becoming a territorial devil, so the sooner the better. ”

"Becoming a devil general is to be able to get out of this position, it's not a plan, it's a choice to improvise after the undead are flooded. I haven't thought about becoming a territorial devil yet, so I'd like to hear your advice: it's better to establish a territory there?"

"Normally if the devil asked me, I would never say it, and even kill it—but you are different. Kuldan rolled his eyes and said, "The first layer often fights bloody, unless you have a way to protect yourself, don't be here." The second floor is a steel city, and there is no place to build a territory for you. The third layer is full of swamps, and if you don't have enough contenders and slaves after you establish your territory, any building will sink or be eliminated. The fourth layer is full of flames, which is a little worse than the fire elemental plane. Anyway, you're not afraid of fire, you can choose there. ”

"The fifth layer of ice can be eliminated, unless you want to fight the fish-men day and night. The sixth floor is full of mudslides, it's very messy, don't go there. 7th Floor...... Hey. ”

What do you mean, hey, Feige squinted at Kurdan, and the guy jumped over the seventh floor. "The eighth layer is as cold as the fifth layer, and although there are no fishmen, it is not a good choice for the Lust Demon, only the Ice Demon likes it there. The ninth floor is the residence of the Demon King, and I don't know anything, and I don't dare to ask, let alone say. ”

Feige understood, and about Kurdan's suggestion was the seventh layer, which was consistent with the choice of the fork in the road. It is estimated that they are all optimistic about the characteristics of the seventh layer of the Ruined World: the things created are bound to decay and destroy, but at least it is easier to create here, and decay and destruction can be continuously delayed by the soul power of the conjugator. He personally saw Kurdan away, and then called in Kazmuk, who had been waiting outside.

"It's hard for me to get a break, one thing after another. Feige sat down, put his hands on his knees, and said, "I'm in a good mood right now, so say whatever you want, as long as it's a decision." ”

"I choose to continue to serve you. Kazmuk said: "I have thought about it, even if I go back now, it may be a mistake." And with adults, you can not only gain stability and security, but also learn things. ”

"Are you worried that I'll kill you if I break the soul contract?" Feige stretched out his hand and took out the soul contract. "This is the last chance, what do you choose?"

"You devil!" Kazmuk trembled all over, his fists clenched. The way it looks at the soul contract is a very complex of emotions, and Feige can read longing, fear, hesitation, and remorse. He waited quietly, and the fire dwarf finally made a decision after a long hour: "Freedom." ”

"Yes. Feiqi directly killed the soul contract, and Kazmuk immediately sensed it. It reached out and touched its head and chest, feeling relaxed. Then Fei Qi took out ten more spirit coins and put them in front of the fire dwarf: "The Demon Penetration Light Killing Cannon was originally going to give you some money, but you chose to cancel the soul contract, so there are only these ten." The Fire Elemental Plane is not a difficult place to go, and the teleportation fee must be within ten spirit coins. You are not allowed to take anything from the camp, all you can do is get out of here and go straight to the Curse Bone Gate, understand?"

Kazmuk gritted his teeth, picked up the spirit coin, and ran out. For the first time, Feige knew that the Fire Dwarf could run so fast, and its tenacity made for a terrifying robed warrior who didn't slow down all the way. Feige didn't hunt it down, of course, and while he watched with relief that a dwarf who had been in hell for a hundred years was still determined to die for freedom, he lamented that he had lost a good craftsman. However, this game of chess in hell is good enough, you can't be insatiable, and you have to withdraw when it's time to get out.

He silently packed his things, hid the space bag full of loot, and waited for Shani to summon him. This time, I have collected a lot of spell books on cross-world and cross-plane teleportation, and I will read more when I go back, and there is a single-plane "precise" teleportation in it, which should further enhance my ability in this area.

There was still half a day left before the next summoning cycle, and Feige waited slowly, but he didn't expect Kazmuk to return before being summoned. "You didn't go back?" Feige was a little surprised, more confused.

The fire dwarf wore a breastplate as translucent as amber and had a flaming hammer at his waist. Neither of these new things is in the style of the devil of hell, but in the style of the sturdy, rugged, heavy fire dwarves. Kazmuk touched the hammer, his eyes full of happiness. "My lord, I went back, and then I came back. ”

"You haven't been in hell enough, have you?"

"I've had enough, but there's one thing I must report to you: I'll go back and tell the new leader of the fire dwarves about the devil's cannon. Use fire elemental energy to create a freezing effect, which will give fire dwarves a strong ability to protect themselves on the fire elemental plane. After I was done with this, I had put my mind at ease - except that I was going to come back and report back to you. I admit that I want to kill or chop, and I can continue to serve you to compensate for the loss. This time, I volunteered. ”

"What do you have to do with me, voluntarily or not? You still don't fully understand the devil's habits. ”

"I don't understand that the devil's habits have little to do with what I want to serve you. The fire dwarf said, "I don't even believe that I can return to the fire elemental plane. ”

"I'm not convinced either. But facts are facts. Feige looked at the fire dwarf and said, "Since I can kill you at any time, if you want to use the contract to protect your life from being stabbed to death by my sword in anger, you can go to a contract demon to make a contract - of course, you will have to pay for it yourself." ”

"Then I'll earn some money for your service first, otherwise I won't even be able to sign the contract. ”
