Chapter Ninety-Five: Borrowing New Debts to Pay Old Debts
Of course, Blue knew how terrible an abyssal invasion was, and in the memories of some of the metal dragons who had fought against the demons of the Abyss, the world destroyed by the demons was full of scorched earth, broken worlds, green water polluted like venom, all the things made by intelligent beings scattered all over the place, and demons everywhere fighting and devouring the mutilated corpses.
After talking about demons, he also kind of understood Eldraine Nero's somewhat strange worldview - as long as he wasn't a demon, he could say anything.
Indeed, if you have seen what the demons of the abyss do, I believe that no one will like them except for perverts.
Even the heinous murderer will only have disgust and no yearning when facing the demon, because the demon does not discriminate whether you are evil or good, torture and kill.
And in the two hundred years that Ellie Nero has been famous, he has participated in countless demon slaying wars, not only the abyssal invasion of the Shules continent, but also the thousands of main material worlds in the multiverse.
Some of those worlds have survived the Abyssal Invasion, while others have completely failed and become polluted.
If you follow the more literate guys, it is a completely failed world, I don't know how many families and lives have been trampled on, and I don't know how many women and children have been abused.
And everything that the blue dragon does, in comparison, is still more disciplined and principled - this is of course more in line with the blue dragon's orderly character.
Most people in this world have the impression that destroying dragon slayers, capturing a city, and killing pursuers during a battle are all acceptable or "legal" justified by ordinary people.
An evil dragon that can certainly kill anyone who steals something, or anyone who gets in the way of his attempts to expand his territory.
Blue thinks that maybe that's why Eldraine Nero is trying to win him over.
Of course, there should be a deeper reason for this woman's stumbling appearance, and he didn't know very well, but in the eyes of Eldraine Nero, Blue found a very strange and noble look - the eyes of the savior.
These eyes are often seen in the eyes of some paladins or paladins, but they are usually aimed at powerful warriors or mages who have gone astray......
What does it mean to have such an expression in front of a blue dragon?
Save me? Does she think I'm going astray?
Sometimes I feel that I am too kind, I spend money to buy information instead of force, and I also brought a bunch of female humanoid creatures to mix, and I was not expelled from the ancestral home of the blue dragon thanks to Lord Tiamat's extrajudicial kindness.
But no matter how kind I am, I can't use my little money to participate in the war of the Abyss Demons.
So it makes sense for me to refuse, right?
Eldraine Nero looked at Blue meaningfully, and she said softly: "Of course I didn't ask you to send the soldiers of New Chars City to participate in the demon slaying war, for the demons who can be reborn in the abyss after death, even if they are killed a hundred times, they can still be resurrected. If it weren't for being so difficult, the Abyss wouldn't have become a nightmare for countless worlds, and it would have been impossible to completely destroy them, so our goal was just to build a portal for those crazy cultists. ”
"That's more dangerous, isn't it? Even stupid demons know how precious those fixed portals are, right? Blue understood what Eldraine Nero meant.
It turned out to be a death squad to destroy the portal.
This may sound like a much easier task than fighting millions, tens of millions of demon troops, but it's actually much harder.
Thousands sound terrifying, but in fact, more than ninety percent of the demon army are very low-level demons, such as cowardly demons or primordial demons, and the primordial demons are so weak that an ordinary human soldier can kill them.
But the only portal is guarded by these miscellaneous soldiers, of course! It must be the elite of the demons, and maybe even the boss.
"Don't worry, when the time comes, several powerful countries in the Central Continent will launch a general attack with us, although the number of demon armies is several times that of ours, but the combat power is not as good as ours, when the time comes, the coalition forces will attract their attention for us, and then we will find a way to dismantle those portals in the shortest possible time......"
Eldraine Nero once again looked at Blue with some hints, and said slowly, "After dismantling the portal as fast as possible, we will retreat immediately......"
"It's not 'us,' ma'am." Blue corrected again earnestly, "I never agreed, and I know what you mean......"
Blue is not stupid, Eldraine Nero repeatedly emphasized that he is the fastest, and then he also asked him to work with a blue dragon who was only a teenager.
It was obvious that she must have learned some secrets from some unknown sources to Blue.
Do you know the whole secret of your eyes, or do you just know that you can destroy anything in an instant?
Although it is unknown, it seems that his secret will not be able to keep for long, or that question, Eldraine Nero knows, so as long as the other gods pay more attention, and even take the initiative to send people to investigate, it is likely that they can discover some of the secrets of his magic eye.
When the time comes, maybe the coalition forces that deal with the demon army will turn around and come against him.
Seemingly......
The use of the MONOCULUS is limited by real problems, and the body enhancement plan is going to be implemented as soon as possible, and I don't want to be threatened by these guys all the time.
"Blue, you are very smart, although the demon invasion is nothing to you, it is just a big deal to fly away, but what does it mean to the ordinary people of this world, you should understand, do you want to live in a world full of sulfur smell?"
Soft and hard didn't work, and Eldraine Nero immediately changed his strategy and began to know how to love it.
"Demons are not the same as demons," Eldraine Nero glanced at Lux and Oriana with anger in her tone, but the object of this anger was only the demons in her mouth, "although the devils also want to pollute the entire universe, at least they will superficially abide by various orders, although most of them are distorted. Demons are mortal enemies of all order and civilization! Blue, if you want to establish a nation on the Western Continent, I can support you on behalf of the Twelve Sisters and Blue Moon City, or I can step in to make the dragons besieging New Shores retreat temporarily. ”
"Is it the price of risking your life to face the enemies of the Demon Lord?" Blue narrowed his eyes and sneered, "Don't think I'm really just a blue dragon who hasn't seen anything in the middle of nowhere......"
"Just digging through a crack connecting the endless abyss is enough for millions of demons to invade, you just said that it was a portal, then it is even more terrifying, I think the number is at least tens of millions! Moreover, portals are completely different from rifts, and even super-large demons can enter this material plane through portals...... The trouble they caused in the Central Continent is now up to people in the poor countryside like the Western Continent to save it? ”
Krishanna listened to Blue's words, and almost understood what Eldraine Nero meant.
When she heard Blue's last words, she also sneered: "Humans, demons are invading, if we don't make trouble, we will already make a great contribution to this world!" ”
Blue secretly gave Krisanna a thumbs up, being able to say shameless words so naturally, and making people feel like they were right, worthy of being a shameless blue dragon, sister!
"But do you have a better option now?"
Eldraine Nero was also unhurried, and she didn't think that after she said it, the other party would immediately nod her head in agreement.
When it comes to national affairs, even if her prestige in Blue Moon City is like a god, she must also consider all aspects, and the alliance is to deal with the demon army now, but also for the future.
The advantage now is that Eldraine Nero thinks that he is simply a conscientious choice compared to Tiamat, and if the blue dragon is smart, after thinking carefully, he will understand his current situation, and he will also understand the benefits of forming an alliance with him.
After hearing the words of the city lord of Blue Moon City, Blue fell silent, and the people around him also looked at him silently.
Eldraine Nero clapped her hands, and a very stout woman pushed the door and walked in, she was at least two meters tall, her muscles almost could burst open at any time, and she also had long brown hair that was different from ordinary women.
Blue and Agnes and the others immediately realized that there was something strange about this woman.
"Sava, this is my very distinguished guest, please help them arrange accommodation and food."
The tall woman bowed to the Blue Moon City City Lord, and then said to a few people in a tone that seemed to be buzzing, "I'll go and arrange a room for dinner and everyone to rest and sleep right away, please wait a while." ”
After finishing speaking, she didn't even wait for a few people to answer, and walked out of the room, the whole process was so cold.
Krisanna snorted coldly, she licked her lips, and said to Eldraine Nero with a sneer: "What else do you need to prepare, if that guy transforms, won't it be a hearty meal?" ”
Eldraine Nero smiled: "That's not good, Miss Krishanna, she doesn't know your identity, that's why it's like this, in fact, her personality has always been like this, I'm sure you can see it, she's a bear person, please bear with me." ”
"Bear people? Why didn't you help her lift the curse? Blue asked, a little strangely.
Bestiality, one of the oldest and most terrible curses, can transform humanoids of the civilized world into raging beasts.
Cursed creatures will wander in pain between their own forms and beastly forms, such as bearmen, boar people, rat people, tiger people, werewolves, etc.
While these curses give the cursed creature some of the power of the beast, they also cause them to change their personality into the beast.
A humanoid can be infected by the Bestiality's curse if it is harmed by a beast, or if its parents are beasts.
However, [Spell Removal Curse] can remove this beast curse that is infected after being damaged, and [Wish] can remove the hereditary beast curse.
Bear people generally belong to the kinder and gentler group of beasts, but it is precisely because of their kindness that they are especially afraid that they will hurt their companions or innocent people when they turn into beast form, so they are used to living alone in solitude.
It seems that the Sava just now actually lived in this human settlement, which is very rare.
Eldraine Nero said quietly, "Sava was seriously injured when she came here, and it was the kind people here who saved her, so in order to repay these kind people, she decided to become a guardian here, so she refused to lift the curse, choosing to keep her ugly appearance and power." ”
After the bear people turned into beasts, their most powerful strength was about the same as that of the young blue dragon, and they could be regarded as the top predators in the desert.
Being able to have such a powerful person to protect it, coupled with the secret protection of the city lord of Blue Moon City, the tribe of this oasis is really a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger.
With that, Eldraine left the room.
Only Blue, Chrisanna, Agnes, Macaria, and Oriana were left in the room, and Lux, Yuri, and Bieber were all resting in the other room.
After seeing that there were no outsiders, Krisanna looked at her brother a little amused, and teased: "My brother, it seems that your trouble is really bigger than the other...... Why do I feel like you're that, that, or something? That's right! ”
Krishanna suddenly hammered the palm of her hand, and shouted as if she had discovered a new world: "Usury! That's right, it's what human businessmen often call usury! ”
Blue was stunned for a moment, and looked at his sister inexplicably.
"You see, at the beginning, you just wanted to find a place, so you went to 'borrow' a sorcerer Chosen One to take down the city of Schars, and then for the city of Shars, you went to 'borrow' Lord Bahamut's artifact, and now in order to get Lord Bahamut's artifact, you are going to fight the demon in exchange for the support of that woman's country, haven't you been borrowing new debts to pay off old debts, and then the new debts are getting heavier and heavier?"
Krishanna's words stunned Blue, and he thought about it, it was really like this.
If you really promise Eldra Nero, the endless demons of the abyss are much more troublesome than those metal dragons besieging New Shars!
Isn't that just a bigger problem to solve the problem of the moment?
He didn't know how to refute Krishanna, a logical genius, and in the face of the nodding of Agnes and Macaria and others who suddenly realized and felt very reasonable, Blue was really a little annoyed and angry.
He muttered a few words in a low voice before he said in a weaker tone, "I didn't say yes to her!" Isn't it just some metal dragon that doesn't have long eyes? It's not like I can't handle it! ”
With that, he left the room as if he had run away, leaving behind a few smiling women.
The lord of Blue Moon City meditated in the room next to the room where they were talking, and when she heard the sound of Blue walking out of the room, she smiled, and then looked at Freya who was kneeling on the ground with reproachful eyes, and said softly, "Alright, now it's your turn to adjudicate on your serious mistakes......"
Freya's shoulders shrank, hugged her head and squatted on defense, and said resignedly: "Big sister, I was wrong, don't slap your face......"
