Chapter 304 Lingering at the end
What the corpse looked like, what Lakado looked like now—a pair of protruding eyeballs, bloodshot skin of terror, hoarse screams, a violently trembling body, and a maniacal look. Fitch was so intimidated that he took two steps back and assumed a defensive posture. The protective spell surrounded him, and the ten fingers of each hand stretched out to a meter long, aiming at the potential threat like the spikes of a hedgehog.
"Mistress, I hear your call! I'm coming, I'm coming!"
Lakador's soul burned violently, but essentially nothing more than pouring alcohol into the extinguishing embers. Alcohol emits powerful light and heat, but this does not last. After the light and heat, only ashes remain, and this time it will not be possible to rekindle.
Zariel manipulated Lakador's soul, presumably altering memories, controlling emotions, and burying seeds in the subconscious. As the saying goes, "The devil is the most demagogue", and a Hell Lord is definitely the best of them. Zarel knew she was going to be caught, and she knew she was going to be involved in it all, so the way she left herself was to be safe and effective. It was therefore inevitable that she would use all sorts of tricks in the soul of Lakador.
However, Lakador's current state is extremely poor, and the damage that Feich has caused to his soul is reflected in his body, and at this time, the seriously injured Void Demon is very incapacitated. It squirmed on the ground, but could only move at the speed of a snail. In this state, let alone completing Zariel's instructions, even leaving this treasure house is unknown.
"Should I just kill you, or leave as if I didn't know anything, or help you?" Feige knew he had to decide. Based on the facts: no one will succeed in stopping Asmodeirs' plans in Hell, and Zariel will surely escape and return to the throne of the Helllord. It can be concluded that even if Feige is a troublemaker, at most he can only make waves and cannot change the general trend.
"It doesn't matter if Lakado is dead or alive, what matters is that it can't die at a critical moment to complete Zariel's important mission. This pot must not be carried back!" Fitch grabbed Rakador with a hand, "Tell me, how should I fulfill Zariel's instructions?"
"Lord Enma, you're so nice, if it weren't for your care, I would have failed a long time ago. Lacado tearfully thanked him, but Fezzy didn't want to waste his precious time coming back to light.
"Say it!" Feich's hand strained and healed hell. Although the effect of this healing recovery was insignificant, it at least provided Lacado with mental support.
"In this space, the blue shelves are all requested by Lord Zariel, and the red shelves are my congratulatory gift for her to get out of the cage. The core of the control of the small space is the portrait on the wall, the one with the woman in the black dress, and the secret language is hard-hearted. Please help me fulfill the hostess's instructions and give her the contents of the space. ”
"Wait a minute, I mean there's something here that keeps you alive for a while, you go and hand it over to ...... Hey, don't die!" Feige shook Rakador, its pupils began to dilate, the soul flame quickly weakened, and death was already enveloping. When all of his soul fire is extinguished, Lakado will begin to descend, and the power of Hell will continue to bring it down to the form of the Devil corresponding to the Soul Shell, an inferior demon with no memories.
"It's not going to work. Feige clenched his fists. If Lakado were allowed to die at this time, he would not be able to deliver things to Zariel. Any other time Fitch took what was here, it was only a dereliction of duty on the part of Rakador, and during the critical period of Zareel's escape, the same act was a hostile act of extreme contempt for the authority of the Helllords, and it was completely different in nature.
Fitch lifted Lakado with one hand and observed the state of its five clusters of souls. The flame of the soul represented by the three human heads has been extinguished, and the part that represents the worm's head still has the last trace of flame. Both Feige and Zariel mainly attacked the three heads of Rakacdor, ignoring the worm head and causing it to suffer relatively light damage. Feige immediately dropped half of the human head on the ground, leaned over the worm's head, and whispered, "You must live until I control you to complete Zariel's mission before you are qualified to die." ”
This is the soul whispering ability of the mind turning demon, by splitting a little soul fire of the mind turning demon as a carrier, a thought is stuffed into the other party's subconscious, and it plays a role while it sleeps, constantly corrupting until the other party transforms into an evil and depraved like the mind turning demon. Lakado was dying, and its remnants were completely unwary of Feige. As soon as the faint thought of carrying the Soul Fire of Feige entered the Void Demon's body, it immediately took the place of the Soul Fire corresponding to the three heads, pulling Rakador back from the brink of soul death.
"A few hours at most, he'll still die. Feige was well aware of Lacador's state: "But in the meantime, you will obey my orders...... No, I can't let you appear in front of Zariel, she can tell at a glance that you have a problem. So there is only one way to solve this matter. ”
Fitch finds a chest from the shelf, pulls out its contents, and shoves Lakado upside down, revealing only the head at the end of the worm. Write a line of small print on the chest with spell rune ink: "Specimens and summoning materials". He then donned the Golem mask and used his mind-turning powers to transform into Rakador.
The worm has many physical difficulties, but with the help of telekinesis, Feige can still manipulate the objects around him. Through the connection between the souls, he casts a spell and establishes a spiritual communication channel with the Void Demon, directly invoking Lakador's thoughts. The only way to do this is to disguise yourself as Rakador, complete Zariel's mission, and then find an opportunity to leave quickly.
At the heart of the space that controls the vault is a portrait of a beautiful human woman in a black dress and thick black eyeshadow sitting on a chair, looking at the unfinished purple rose scroll beside her with melancholy eyes. Behind her, a splendid manor house was blackened by the clouds of the sky, and all the windows glowed with an eerie red glow, watching the poor woman like the eyes of a skeleton.
"Hard-hearted. Feige whispered, and the woman in the painting turned her head to look at him. For a moment, her eyes flashed with joy, but as she saw the terrible face of Feiqi, her joy vanished and turned back to a deep sadness and gloom.
"Shrink the space so I can take it away. Feige gave the order, and then saw the woman in the painting reach out and wipe it on the canvas in the painting, and the space around her immediately distorted. Feige is safely sent out of the space, and the treasure trove transforms into a postage stamp-sized tattoo that appears on his chest.
"Goddess bless me, hurry up and get over it......" Feiqi took a deep breath, took out all his concentration, opened the spatial teleportation, and came to the street where the maggot's den was located.
It was razed to the ground, and at least thirty buildings were completely reduced to rubble. On top of the masonry that seeped blood from the cracks, Zariel spread his black wings and announced his return to the whole of Hell. Feige fell out of the portal and rolled on the ground in a pretended embarrassment. He noticed that there were three Deep Hell Purgator and more than a dozen high-level Horn Demon level demons in front of him, and he was the only Illusory Demon among them.
"Rakador, you fat idiot, have you done a good job for me?" Zarrell glared, Feige didn't feel anything, but he shivered anyway. At this time, it was too much to say and be wrong, and Feige opened the vault space as fast as he could, and then gave the order to pour out everything except Lakador. With a clattering sound, large and small boxes scattered across the street, and Feige followed the example of Rakador and sweated profusely.
"The panicked look didn't grow at all. Zariel stepped down from the rubble and came to the chest. Feige very "interestingly" handed the list of items up with a telekinesis, and then fell back and prostrate on the ground - he had already looked like a worm, but now he was just lying lower.
Zariel looked at the list, then at the things on the ground, and his golden eyes blinked, "I look at more things here than on the list?
Fitch shook his head and said in Lacado's tone, "It's all yours, mistress. ”
"Very good, that's the most satisfying answer I've heard today. Zariel opened the chest full of spirit coins and reached inside, a red flame burning along her arm, which was then quickly absorbed by her skin. Feiqi didn't dare to look closely, but he could still clearly feel that Zariel's might was getting stronger and stronger, and her strength continued to improve on the level of the Deep Hell Purgatory until it gave him a sense of invincibility.
It's certainly a delusion. Feige reminded himself with his head down. Every Hell Lord is good at playing with people's hearts, and it is their instinct to rule by fear. With the face of an angel, Zarel portrays an invincible image, but essentially controls his subordinates by modifying memories and planting subconscious seeds. You have to be careful of her repeating her old tricks now, and don't be blinded by illusions.
Maybe it was the things that really satisfied Zariel's greed, or maybe it was that Rakador didn't get her attention, and the devil who had left the cage was only concerned about regaining his strength, and didn't care about Feige hiding on the sidelines. He took the opportunity to stow the vault space, then retreated as far back as he could, hiding behind the Hellpurator's ass. According to the devil's class, the False Demon should have been at the back of the line, so this kind of action did not arouse suspicion at all.
After Feiqi, a number of demons arrived, and they all pledged their allegiance to Zariel. Looking at what they had prepared in a hurry, it was clear that it was all nonsense, but Zariel accepted it all "without question". The demons kissed Zariel's boots and then went backwards to blend in with the rest of the Hellpurgatory, before being squeezed out by the "true die-hard supporters." Zariel casually pointed at them all to the other side, which made the "hardcores" laugh secretly.
"Bair's mission is accomplished," Zariel said to the demons, "and it has done a good job of its strategic deception of the demons, and with its abilities it will continue to be the devil's general under my command." The most important thing now is to cooperate with the actions of the Demon King, withdraw all the demons to Hell as much as possible, and then wait for the order. ”
Beyer's name caught the attention of all the devils, and everyone pricked up their ears. Zariel's return is a surprise, and for a long time the devils have almost forgotten that there is such a lord, who has long been put on the "death list". But even more bizarre is Byer, where has it gone, what is it doing, why hasn't it appeared? The devils suspect that Byer has been cleaned up by Zariel, and judging by Zariel's eagerness to regain his strength, it seems that the battle has not yet taken place.
"Every devil has ambitions, but not every devil has the power to match ambitions!" Zariel took a deep breath and raised his right fist, which burned with crimson flames. "Bair, I command you by your real name, come to me at once!"
The devils were shocked, especially the Hellpurgators, and Feige noticed, and their bodies trembled a little, just as Zariel said the words "real name". The true name is the name of the soul of every intelligent being, and it is inherently unchangeable. Call the soul by your real name, and the soul will respond instantly, giving an opportunity to all kinds of dangerous spells that control and damage the soul. However, real names are very mysterious things, and it is extremely difficult to know their real names, and it is even more difficult to grasp other people's. And even if you know, if you don't have enough skills and strength, you can't use your real name to clamp down on others.
Legend has it that Asmodeirs knows the true names of the Managers of the various levels of Hell, which makes him invincible forever. However, no one has heard of him using his real name as a weapon, so this incident can only be classified as a legend for the time being. And Zariel directly used his real name to call Byer in front of everyone's eyes, although everyone couldn't "incidentally" hear what Byer's real name was, it actually appeared in front of Zariel after a burst of spatial fluctuations, and reluctantly knelt down on one knee, which was enough to cause an uproar among the devil.
"Beyer, have you thought about it?" Zariel shook his body, not knowing if it was excitement or fatigue. She clenched her right fist at the side of her face, a strange gesture that didn't seem to match her overall appearance, but if you added a chain to her fist and the other end connected to Beyer's neck, the image would be surprisingly coordinated.
"I will be your general, as always. Bair lowered his head, and he had a visibly numerous wound on his body. Who had injured him? The Hellpuritans didn't know or dare to ask, and one by one, like frightened quails, shrunk their heads and waited for Zariel's next sentence.
Feige peeked over, and he noticed that Zariel's expression showed hesitation for a moment, and the murderous intent leaked from behind the disguised smug smile. The muscles in Bayer's neck also tightened for a moment, as if he was an instinctive response to this killing intent. Feige thought that Zariel would suddenly take action to completely solve the enemy in front of her, but she shook her raised fist, completely put away her killing intent and hesitation, and said with a smile: "Very good, it seems that you still remember the earlier plan, then I will give you the position of devil general, under me, continue to lead the devil army in the bloody war." ”
"Yes, my lord, I will serve the death!" said Bair, "what do you have now?"
"Let all the devils retreat to hell and stay away from the gray plane. The devil generals who carried out the expedition must also be withdrawn, and they must all regain their allegiance. Zariel said, "All the lord crystals you issued will be canceled immediately, and my lord crystals will also be invalid." All the devils have a chance to become lords now, as long as they are good enough at the next critical moment!"
"Yes!" replied Beyer, gritting his teeth.
Although the Lord Crystal can be recovered, it comes at a great cost. You must know that the position of a lord is equivalent to a hellish contract, the subordinates work for the superiors, and the superiors provide security for the subordinates, and both parties have rights and obligations. Bair forcibly takes back his lords, and the infernal contract will make him pay the price.
No matter how big his loss was, it didn't matter to Feige, but Zariel's sudden frown gave Feige a sense of foreboding.
