Chapter 261 I'm in a showdown
I should answer: serve the adults with all my heart. But...... But ......" Feige frowned slightly, looked at the ground, and made a reluctant attitude. "My lord, can you have a territory like the fork in the road?"
"To become a lord, you have to be a high-level devil, you mean to let me give you an advancement? It's easy, but you have to wait until I get out of this cage as planned. ”
"If it doesn't work now, then don't worry about it. Feige waved his hand in fear. "I may die soon without the territory, but I can be satisfied with knowing that my lord has such intentions. ”
"Dead soon? What's going on?"
Fitch "logically" explained the undead wreathing outside to Zariel, and at the same time stated his own reasoning: "Bayer's fact allowing the Bronze Fortress to be breached by foreign enemies will inevitably make the other Hellpurgators rethink their own positions." However, Bayer's prestige is now only slightly shaken, and the cracks that have formed are not enough to knock it off the throne. Be patient, my lord!"
"Ha, you're starting to educate me!" Zariel shook his head, "Feige, you're good. When I become the Lord of Hell again, I will have you as my staff, advising me and even managing certain aspects of my affairs. ”
This isn't the first female lord to want Feige to be her staff. The previous one has already been broken, and this one, Feige doesn't want to start at all. Moreover, Zariel only said "staff" in every word, but did not say the last sentence "Since you want to be a lord, I will let you get the territory then". If Feige showed any gratitude at this time, then Zarel would be able to take advantage of the situation and rely on all the rewards he had promised. So Fei Qi smiled slightly, and wanted to lead the topic to the "territory": "My lord, the fork in the road demon always boasted that he only obtained the territory after you. What did it do?"
"The territory of the fork demon is stolen. Zariel said, "When I was in charge of Hell, I launched attacks on many mortal worlds, sending my trusted devil generals to plunder the souls of the people there and increase the power of my Hell. The Fork of the Road asked to become a Conquest General, and I gave him a Hellland Crystal. Inserting this crystal in the mortal land is equivalent to creating an enclave for hell. It appears that it didn't use the Hell Territory Crystal in its conquests, but instead used it to gain territory. ”
"Can you only give me the Hell Territory Crystal after you become a lord on the first level of Hell?"
Zariel stared at Feiqi, although he was unhappy in his heart, but considering that this desire demon could still play a role, he told the truth: "The Territory Crystal is something that can be created by the only Deep Hell Purgatory, and it only needs to cost some evil aura. Although I am not a Hellpuritor, I am also a unique level, so the Hell Territory Crystal can be created at hand. I could make one for you right now, but you're just a demon and have no power to nourish the crystal, let alone turn it into a true territory. ”
"I want to try. Fei Qi pressed step by step: "Solve the problem first, and then think about whether it is good or not." ”
"If you're so confident, I don't mind. Zariel raised his neck upward, his throat squirming, and then spat out the soul gem he had swallowed earlier. "Take it, it's a territory crystal now. ”
The soul energy in the red crystal has disappeared, and it should have been absorbed by Zariel. That's enough power for an inferior demon to evolve into a Hellpurgatory, but Feige doesn't see the slightest change in Zaryel. Maybe Zariel's potential is too strong to accommodate more soul power, or maybe she's acting.
The Territory Crystal was in his hand, and Feige cast an evil aura on it. It stands to reason that the Hell Sentiment in the Evil Aura should be able to trigger this thing, but nothing actually happens. Feige looked at Zariel suspiciously, "What's going on?"
"Do you think you only need hellish favor to become a lord?! I told you, at least the hell purgatory can use it! The hell purgatory and the desire demon have the same hell favor, so the difference is the status of the hell purgatory. Only when another Hell Lord issues a conquest order, and you have a Hell Contract to open up the territory, can it really be stimulated! And this kind of conquest order can only be received by the Deep Hell Purgatory level, understand?"
"Understood. Feiqi nodded: "In other words, if you really want to become a lord, you must wait until you return to the lord's throne on the first layer of hell." ”
"You're not hopelessly stupid. However, you chose the Territory Crystal as your reward, and now that you've got the reward, it's time for me to do the next mission. ”
"Wait a minute, Lord Zaryll!" Feige raised his hand, "I have a suggestion that will be good for you and for me who wants to become a lord. I can find a way to suppress the circle here, open this cage, and tear down those adamantite chains. Now there is no Bayer's army outside except for the undead. As long as you can get to the Cursed Bone Gate, you can reach the Grey Ruins World through there. My lord, if you are free, you can show your strength and take Bayer off as soon as possible!"
Zarel snorted, spat on the ground, and then said with a look of disdain, "Ignorance! Stupid! If you don't lie to me about the undead flood, then this suggestion is completely self-defeating! I'll give you a chance to think about what went wrong! If you can't think of it, you're not qualified to be my staff!"
Not being a staff member is with Feige's intentions, but is he really wrong? Could it be that Zariel is deliberately acting on himself? Feige frowned, feeling that this matter was not so simple.
There is no doubt that the Cursed Bone Gate leads to the world of grey ruins. But why did the route he left turn into a self-defeating one? Feige thought quietly, at first without a clue, until he brought himself into Bayer's perspective to re-examine the matter, and finally had an idea.
In fact, the key question is: as Bayer, how to solve this undead flood incident. With previous attempts, the mercenaries couldn't help, and if you use the devil's army to storm it, even if you can win, the losses will be great. In particular, the battle takes place inside the Bronze Fortress, and no matter how you fight, you will definitely lose.
What if you attack in a different direction?
"Bayer knew that the Cursed Bone Gate was connected to the Grey Ruins, and it could even know the exact coordinates of the portal when it was opened. So it is not ready to attack from the Bronze Fortress, but from the Gray Ruins World! When all the undead are concentrated at this end of the Bronze Fortress, the Gray Ruins are negligent in defense, and Bayer can even directly break into the side of the Necromantic Orb and win in one fell swoop! Even the Gray Ruins are defended by the undead, and Bayer can also blockade them, thus fundamentally limiting the number of the undead. The artifact can only get undead from the ruins to attack the Bronze Keep, but not the Grey Ruins. No, I suspect that artifact doesn't have that kind of intelligence at all. ”
"You've secured your position on staff, Feige. Zariel smiled and said, "Ordinary Lust Demons don't have such a big picture, I'm curious where your intelligence comes from? Although the Fork Demon is relatively intelligent, it doesn't have the ability to change the process from an inferior demon to a Lust Demon level...... Wait, the fork in the road has territory, and it's been hunted by Bayer? That's not right, there's a contradiction in that. It's impossible for Bayer not to find out the territory of the fork in the road, unless ...... Unless the Fork in the Road Demon is not a Deep Hell Purgatory right now!And if it wasn't a Deep Hell Purgatory, it wouldn't be possible to use the Devil to shape and turn the Bad Demon into a Lust Demon!Fitch, how do you explain this?!"
Zariel's mind is spinning so fast that he's already found a hole in Feige's "history." But Feige is more worried about Erreyas now, that demon left the cursed bone gate, didn't she just bump into Bayer, but what else could she do now? she had already passed through the portal to the gray ruins plane, and she was bound by military orders to follow her. And even if it is the same as in the past, will it also hit the Bayer team?
"Ugh......" Feige sighed. Originally, Erries was safe as long as she hid in the undead flood, the undead would not harm her, and even if the undead failed in the end, she still had a chance to escape the hunt in the Bronze Fortress. As a result, his "suggestion" suggested her to the point of death. "I'm so stupid, it would be nice to think about it sooner. ”
"Do you want to figure out how to lie to me?" Zariel felt very involved, she clenched her fists, and said viciously, "Feiqi, who is your superior devil? Come closer, let me see!"
"Uh, why should I listen to you?" Feige shook his head, "My superior devil is not you, and you always seem to forget about it." If you were a first-tier lord, things would have been different, but you're not. ”
Zariel was more puzzled by Feige's words, but he finally calmed down a little in order to think. "The fact that you can name the fork in the road, and know its relationship with me, shows that you are indeed familiar with it. On the other hand, you are obviously not from Bayer, otherwise you would not have given me the soul crystal. But if you weren't one of those two, who else could you be?"
"Hey, hey, hey. Feige put the Territory Crystal in the small pocket around his waist and thought about it while he was giggling. He keenly grasped an opportunity that could even affect the situation in Hell.
"Bayer's ascension to the top proves that you are lacking in strength, and I found this in my conversation with you. Now, I understand more and more that the vision. Feige shook his head slightly, putting on a look of regret. "Lust is the most important demon, but you are not necessarily the most important demon. Would you pin all your important plans on one person, especially if that person lacks strength?"
"Wait, you mean ......"
"Don't worry, Lord Demon King has no intention of giving up on you, after all, you are a Blazing Heavenly Divine Servant from the Heavenly Realm. Feige changed form in front of Zariel, revealing three pairs of wings in front of her. This time, Zariel couldn't control her expression directly, and her anger exploded in an instant.
After absorbing the energy in the soul crystal, Zariel's strength recovered a lot. She was carried away by anger and also tore through her disguise. In an instant, green poisonous flames erupted, like a ferocious dragon rushing towards Feiqi. Feige took a deep breath and decided to take a gamble, believing in the effect of the cage, so he remained motionless. "Bayer locked you up here, not even guarded, because it believed that it could keep you, even when you were at your strongest. ”
The poisonous fire rushed towards the cage, but failed to break out. Feige secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but on the surface he still had a "I knew it was like this" expression. "You have a reason to be angry with me, and I won't rise for it. I want to take your place in the Demon King's plan, but this is just my personal wish, not the Demon King's intention. The Demon King's plan is about to enter a critical period, and I wanted you to go out early, but it failed. You are very good, I still have shortcomings, but it is not certain who will win and who will lose in the future!"
Where did Fei Qi know about the "Demon King's plan", he was purely fooling. Does the Demon Lord have a plan? For example, going to the fourth floor today and sleeping in tomorrow are all plans. As for whether it is a "key plan", Zariel will make up for it himself anyway.
Through reading the Picture Book, Feige learns that the Demon King Asmodeirs has great expectations for the demon genre. Since Zarel is a demon form, and he was shaped by Asmodeirs himself, and he was directly promoted to the first level lord of Hell, there is a high probability that he wants to realize his vision in the "Painted Leather Book" through Zariel. Conspiracy has always been the favorite thing of the devils, and they enjoy the joy of conspiracy, so they have to suffer the panic when the conspiracy is discovered. Feige pretends to know about this conspiracy and deceives him through his various forms, making Zariel believe that he is also a fallen angel of the Blazing Gods, who was also transformed into a demon by Asmodeirs, so there is a possibility of "replacing her".
Bayer, the current first-tier lord of hell, only thinks about "total defense", and has murderous intentions towards Feige. If Feige survives, what will he face next time? Killing or overthrowing Bayer is the trickier thing to do, and Zariel has the ability and motivation. All Feige had to do was push this thing and make Zarel impatient, even if he left the cage a little earlier to distract Bayer. And Feige disguises himself as the person next to the Demon King, as long as he doesn't face Zariel directly, then the risk is relatively controllable. Could it be that Zariel could still ask the Demon King, "Is there a Blazing Divine Servant with you who is moving around when I am imprisoned?"
"Lord Demon King still stubbornly expects from you, otherwise I would have replaced Bayer as the lord of the first tier. But I've always thought that you stayed here and didn't do anything, didn't contribute at all, so why are you still in the Demon King's plan? Hehe, this time, I let the Bronze Fortress actually be breached, and I swept Bayer's face, and I came in and saw you. I've proven to be better than both of you in some ways, and I'm really capable of doing something. ”
"You little fight...... pediatrics"
"Of course, I can't compare to the Demon King, but as long as I'm stronger than you, I'm satisfied. And I've got the essence of your bloodline, and I know what you're better at, and I have a goal to surpass. Feige bowed slightly to Zariel, "Maybe I'll succeed, maybe I'll fail." But I want you to remember: if I show up to you again, I'm a success. In the first layer of hell, it is enough to have a Blazing God Servant Demon as the lord, but it doesn't have to be you. ”
Since Zariel had released the poisonous fire in the cage, Fei Qi easily took the "Blazing Divine Servant Blood Essence" that was about to be filled. He put the liquid in a separate bottle, deliberately left some left, and then smashed the bottle on the ground.
Zariel kept cursing him, and Feige just took it as a deaf ear, Shi Shiran left the cage room and hid in the alchemy workshop.
There were so many undead out there that he wouldn't go out right away - unless he was prepared.
