The Fork in the Road Demon has been searching for the location of Feiqi's true body, and has never given up. But by the time its Hellpurgator body completely turned to smoke and returned to the Soul Gem, it was no longer capable of harming Feiqi.

Feige took out his lord crystal and placed it in front of the fork in the road, activated it without hesitation, and began the territory merger ceremony. The Hell Contract he signed with the Fork Demon emerges and is absorbed by the Lord Crystal as a "sacrifice" for the ritual. Afterwards, Feige took out the spirit coins that Rakacador had given him, and used the knowledge of the Hell Lord to expand his territory so that he could swallow all of the legacy of the Fork of the Road.

At this point, even if the Fork Demon tries to damage Feige by disbanding his own territory and committing suicide, it will be in vain. It was trapped in the soul crystal, and could only struggle and scream helplessly. When Feiqi's Territory Crystal began to emit a red expansion mist, which climbed onto the massive Soul Crystal and began to devour, it finally stopped screaming.

"Feige, do you think you won? Do you think you won on your own? You're just a little pawn who got lucky to eat me under the protection of a real chess player. Hey, hey, hey, I've got it, I've foreseen your end!"

In the clamor of the fork in the road, Feige revealed his true body, and he had been sitting in front of the soul crystal stone all along. The expressionless masked face of the Mind Spender slowly turned, and his gaze moved from the Lord Crystal to the Soul Stone. Through the hard crystal, Feige looked at the increasingly weak fork in the road, and said in a calm tone:

"I won't kill you, and I've never had such a thought from beginning to end. You don't need to keep cursing me, that's no point. You and I are both high-level devils, and I still have magic, your current strength can't hurt me, even if you burn all your soul, you can only make the territory a little smaller in the end. ”

"Your knowledge is invaluable, and your experience is very peculiar. Evolved from an inferior demon to a deep hell purgatory, and then independently obtained a territory, escaping Zariel and Bair. Although it didn't escape me, it doesn't affect my admiration for you. "I will spare your life and let you tell me about these experiences and enhance my knowledge," Feige said. ”

"You don't want to get knowledge from me!" the Fork Demon still retains the last of his stubbornness.

"You think this way because you don't know what the hell the mind bending demon can do. Feige tapped his hard skull with his sharp fingers, and said, "The language of the Mind Spender has a demagogic power that allows me to manipulate your memories, perceptions, and emotions. It's a bit difficult to modify the soul of the Hell's Purgatory, but I can keep trying, and I'll always succeed. You are trapped and cannot go anywhere, and you can do nothing but keep resisting until inevitable defeat strikes. Fork in the road, you will eventually pass on all your knowledge and experience to me with joy and pride, and give me the secret of what you once had in your hands. I will gladly accept your services. ”

"You're a devil. The fork in the road demon summed up, and it didn't take the initiative to say a word after that.

There's no need for Feige to continue talking nonsense with the fork in the road. He waited patiently for his lord crystal to annex the territory of the Fork of the Road, including the throne, soul stones, and spatial turbulence rooms that had been stabilized, as well as the territory fragments that had been blown away by the spatial turbulence before. He inherited the lordship of the Fork of the Road, and as long as he continued to expand, he could still reap the territories he had lost.

The Soul Stone of the Fork Demon is now the Soul Stone of Feiqi's New Territory, which will serve as a place to harvest souls and transform them into the power of Hell, as well as a place to use soul power for lordship ceremonies. Feige can pay Spirit Coins to summon the Invoker here to expand and maintain the territory - this is much more expensive than buying the Invoker outright, but it is better to be secret.

It's just that he doesn't have this idea for the time being, but focuses on telling the words of the Mind Turning Demon to the fork in the road. Feige has so many stories to tell, and the body of a high-ranking devil keeps him from fatigue. The fork in the road demon is very resistant at first, but quickly immerses himself in the story.

When the vigilance disappears, the spell of the Mind Turning Demon takes advantage of the void. Under Feige's modifications, the Fork of the Road Demon no longer holds a grudge against Feiqi, but instead treats him as the most important superior devil, a target that it must curry favor with all its might. With this emotion at its core, those memories related to Feige are modified, and the fork in the road demon no longer knows the truth about his past with Feiqi.

"You are a little devil who I have assigned to work undercover with a deep purgatory demon called the Fork in the Road Demon to find out its secrets. You sacrificed your body to complete the mission, and now you can only live in my soul stone as a soul. Your only wish is to report back to me and please me so that you can regain the body of the devil, even advancement. Feige planted the story in the subconscious of the fork in the road, making it a firm thought. When it takes root, the Fork in the Road Demon's cognition will automatically make up the details according to the story. "You've learned the knowledge and memories of the Fork in the Road Demon, and it's affected you. If you have cognitive problems, be sure to remember your name: Bulala. ”

The words "Bulala" popped into Feige's head when he first saw the fork in the road demon on the Crystal Throne. It was a long, complicated name, and Feige only remembered the pronunciation of the first three words. Now he knew that what he heard was the real name of the Fork in the Road, but at the time he didn't have enough power to remember that name, let alone apply it. Now he replaced the name of the fork demon with the three words he had heard, at least these three words were easier for the fork devil's subconscious to accept.

An independent mind named "Bulalala" was born from the subconscious of the fork in the road demon and thrived under the careful care of the mind-turning demon Feiqi. False and self-consistent memories, complete but narrow thinking, rigorous but distorted logic, three terrible fruits bear fruit on this small "bulala" tree, exuding an alluring fragrance.

The personality of the fork in the road demon is gradually replaced by "Bulala", and it becomes an open treasure chest, and the treasures inside will be continuously taken out and handed over to Feiqi by the "Bulala" guard. The scariest thing about the Mind Spectator is that the Devil doesn't like the Mind Spender either, and the Fork in the Road Demon is just Feige's second victim.

But Feige isn't the only devil dealing damage to the Fork in the Road. Like Rakador, the Fork in the Road's memories had been manipulated long before Fitch, most likely by Zariel.

"You've suffered far less damage than Rakador, maybe you left Zariel earlier, maybe you're not as important as Rakador. But that's okay, I'll help you repair some of the damage slowly so you can tell me more information. ”

There is power and deceit among the devils. Fei Qi was even a little uneasy about himself after examining the fork in the road, and conducted a comprehensive examination of his soul. Perhaps luckily, or maybe he wasn't in hell long enough, Feige didn't find any signs of his soul and memories being tampered with by someone else. Through this inspection, he found that his soul fire had become one, and there was no trace of the previous splicing of three parts. Therefore, from any point of view, he is now a completely independent individual.

After performing subliminal surgery for the Fork of the Road, Feige returns to the throne hall. Since the ownership of this territory already belongs to Feiqi and is bound to his soul, Feiqi's characteristics will be revealed. The red has disappeared from the hall, replaced by black squares of varying sizes on the white walls, formed by gradients. Viewed from the opposite side of the throne, there are white wings on a black background on the left, and black wings on a white background on the right, symbolizing Feige's hybrid form of black and white wings.

The throne has a gray cement texture, which looks very cheap and does not feel "noble" at all. However, this chair is Feiqi's, and it is very comfortable to sit on, and it will not feel cramped when spreading its wings when it is in the form of a demon. It's the same feeling as Feige sitting on the Crystal Throne during the Contract Demon period - each devil's territory is a manifestation of his soul traits, and naturally it is always the most appropriate.

Sitting upright in the throne, Feige's senses merge with the entire realm. The current territory is only three halls plus a distance of forty meters outward, which is a very small territory - it will gradually shrink without the constant patrols and maintenance of the Invokers. However, such a small territory is the least likely to be noticed by other devils, and it can be easily hidden by illusion. Feige has little interest in the Battle for Hell War, and the greatest use of the territory for him is to experiment with spells, study spatial turbulence, and use it as a trading hub for shipping with the River Styx.

"The territory is finally a little bigger than it used to be, and new space debris has appeared. Feiqi's mind moved, and a shovel popped out from under the gray cement throne. The shovel had a stubby handle that could be folded twice, serrated teeth and a pickaxe, and if it wasn't gray but army green, it would look exactly like a shovel.

Space debris is buried in territory-wide dirt and takes on a deep pink color in Feige's soul vision. These are the relics of the old territory of the Fork Demon after it was detonated by the spatial turbulence, and each piece of space debris is like a small space bag, which contains the "legacy" of the Fork Demon. Normally, these space debris are invisible, and excavation can only find dirt. Only when the territory is expanded and the fragments are re-covered will they be "charged" and their true colors will be revealed. With a swing of the shovel, Feige easily digs through the dirt and removes the shards. The fragments began to deform as soon as they reached his hands, returning to their original shape.

Feiqi kept digging, and there were a total of thirty-three space fragments within a radius of forty meters, of which twenty-five were soul contracts. These contracts are of no use to Feige, on the one hand, he has no idea who owes the debt, and on the other hand, he is not a fork in the road, and even if there is a profit from the contract, it will not fall into his hands. He can give these contracts to the Fork in the Road Demon and give it the body of a Contract Demon to collect debts as his own. However, this will definitely not be carried out until the transformation of the mind of the fork demon is completed.

The other eight space debris are the money and equipment of the fork in the road, and it seems that they are not for the devil to use, and it is likely that they are "fishing bait" used to lure others into signing contracts. These things are well made, but a closer look reveals that they have a hellish aura at their core, and long-term use can be tempting to degenerate. Therefore, Fei Qi is not ready to bring them back to the Yongli Continent, so he can only find an opportunity to sell them, which can make up for the consumption of spirit coins to expand the territory.

Since it covers the territory of the Fork Demon, it temporarily expands in the direction of the old territory. Coincidentally, the Fork Demon came to the seventh layer of Hell to avoid being pursued by Beyer, and he chose to develop his territory underground, and Feige had a similar need. Underground territories can be extremely laborious to excavate and build, but they are easier to conceal and defend. Feige uses magic and piles of rubble to hide the entrance and exit of the dungeon, so he can focus on building underground.

Obviously, teleportation would be the only way to get in and out of here, and it would be impossible for low-level devils to get in. Fitch swung his shovel and dug through the territory, digging a thirty-meter square hall into the ground like a diligent ant. Due to the special environmental effects of the seventh layer of Hell, all construction work can be easily completed, and the required materials can be obtained with only the power of the soul. In other words, as long as you are willing to spend money and spend enough money, you can build whatever you want.

"Spirit coins, spirit coins, easy to come and go and fast to ......" Fei Qi spent a lot of money back and forth in the territory, and he still had to reserve some for the maintenance of this territory, and it was impossible to spend it all. This new hall will be used to house portals in and out, and a circle will be essential, so consider the cost of drawing the circle and the materials to keep it working. Suddenly, Fei Qi had an idea and consumed spirit coins to turn the floor of the room into a whole magic circle scroll, so that he could draw runes directly on it, saving a lot of trouble.

"The circle must be level, and although the whole stone slab is flat, it is too troublesome to carve. "Fei Qi uses the power of the lord devil to burn the soul energy in the spirit coin, so that the surrounding environment can change according to his own will - this is how the spirit currency is exchanged for items. "Rune ink can also be exchanged, but formed spell scrolls cannot, and even if you have all the details completely constructed in your mind, you can't directly create spell items. Although it will be more cumbersome, such restrictions are actually a good thing. If not, all the lords and demons of hell will have endless spell items in their hands, so how can they deal with them!"

As long as it is an inanimate raw material, no matter how valuable it is, it can be exchanged for spirit coins. As long as you have money, you can even fill your eyes with a toilet bowl of pure gold!However, the more valuable things in other worlds, the higher the maintenance cost in hell, which is not a small burden. Moreover, the items exchanged for the lord's ability will be damaged at an accelerated rate after leaving the territory, unless the holder maintains it with several times or even dozens of times the soul power, this price is often unbearable.

However, carpets and rune ink materials made of scroll cloth are very cheap, and Feige has some elemental gems that he earns from the Demonic Light Cannon trade to power the circle. Next, he meticulously and patiently drew a magic circle on the scroll carpet and placed a simple three-barrel circle in the territory. The entire circle is separated from the outside world by dimensional anchor spells, and can only be teleported in after two very precise positioning attempts.

"The continuous positioning of the two coordinates, so that the possibility of mistransmission is basically eliminated. "Feige knows very well that teleportation is incorrect, and he doesn't want other demons to rely on teleportation errors to get into his territory. "The dimensional anchor will force the teleportation away, landing right outside the territory. Since the distance of the bounce is not far, it is generally considered to be caused by teleportation error. If this can be discovered by other devils, I can only say that I am unlucky. ”

Now that the territory has been opened, it is necessary to think about defense and offense. Hell is not a peaceful paradise, and any other devil is a potential enemy. "Xani is calling me, and it looks like the time has come. So I'm not going to summon the Merger for now, and let's see how quickly it naturally retracts here. ”

Feige answered the call and left his infernal territory.
