Chapter 100: Absolute Loyalty
————
Demonic Seed: A seed formed by the gathering of chaotic magic that erodes the user's soul and life force, replacing the user's heart as a source of its power, and eventually transforming the user into a demonic creature.
————
"Swallow!"
Under Green's gaze, the gray dwarf swallowed the demonic seed that Green handed him.
"Gah!" Webier clutched his stomach in pain.
Webier felt that the black seed he swallowed was like turning into countless tentacles, beginning to erode his body, corroding and penetrating his body.
The transformation lasted a few minutes. When the transformation was over, Webier felt empowered all over him, as if the whole world was different.
"This is ......" Webier looked at his hands and clenched his fists hard.
A burst of black light suddenly erupted from the fist, it was the power of magic!
"Could it be...... Extraordinary? Am I transcendent? Webier was surprised. Webier felt as if there was an energy in him, and he seemed to be able to drive that energy and strengthen himself.

Green identified the Grey Dwarf's attributes.
After Green's transformation, the gray dwarf, who was originally just black iron, suddenly mastered the "magic power release" ability similar to "Dou Qi", which can consume magic power to instantly strengthen his own attributes and weapons and equipment, so as to obtain combat power beyond the limits of his physical body - and this is the biggest difference between the black iron rank and the silver tier.
The Silver Race and the Gold Race are inherently capable of mastering this skill of consuming mana to strengthen themselves, while the Black Iron Race requires rigorous training before it is possible to master this skill.
Green looked at the attributes of the gray dwarf, felt the connection between himself and the gray dwarf, and his heart moved.
"Hmm!" The gray dwarf fell to his knees and seemed to be in great pain.
"Oh~ It seems that the transformation is going well." Green let go of his grip on the gray dwarf and said with a smile, "Do you have anything to say?" ”
"My lord, I am loyal to you!" The gray dwarf had a weeping expression.
"Hmm...... By the way, do you remember why you were arrested? ”
The gray dwarf looked up at Grimm, not understanding why Grimm suddenly asked this, "I...... Because I killed someone. ”
"Eh~ you remember."
Suddenly, the gray dwarf felt a chill!
"The transformation has failed." A cold light flashed in Green's eyes, "Thousand Shadows." ”
"Yes, master!"
In the next moment, the gray dwarf's head flew up, purple blood spurting from his neck.
Looking at the purple blood in the sky, a hint of discoloration flashed in Green's eyes: "Huh? ”
The gray dwarves are the same as humans, they are all black iron races, and it stands to reason that the blood color should be red, but the other party's blood is black, which makes Green a little surprised.
Green frowned slightly, and suddenly turned his head to look at Beladonna: "Nana, come here." ”
"Daddy?" Beladona walked over with a blank look on her face.
"Hand out."
"Oh." The girl stretched out her arm in confusion.
Green grabbed the girl's arm and pulled out the dagger from her waist.
"Huh~"
A streak of blood appeared on the girl's hand, and red blood like magma left out of it.
Perhaps due to the use of the red dragon's corpse during the transformation, there was a burning energy in the girl's blood, but after the red retreated, the blood began to slowly turn purple.
"Tsk~ Will the blood of the transformed creature turn purple?" Green frowned slightly, but he didn't care too much.
After all, in a sense, this kind of transformation can be regarded as forcibly advancing the "Black Iron Race" into a transcendent race (the collective name of the Silver Race and the Gold Race), so it is natural that some changes will occur in the blood.
"Daddy...... Hurt. Beladonna looked at Green with tears in her eyes.
"I'm sorry, it doesn't hurt~" Green helped Beladona lick her wound, swallowed her blood, and then reached out and touched Belladonna's head, soothingly.
After calming the girl down, Green came to the corpse of the gray dwarf.
"The Demonized Seed has failed, and it seems that it can only be resurrected directly." Green couldn't help but glance at the amnesiac Beladonna.
Resurrection is an advanced divine technique that allows priests to resurrect believers of the same faith who have just died. It seems that the Demon Lord Grimm can also resurrect people who have just died - although the subject of the first attempt to resurrect is directly amnesia, but from another point of view, it is also a means to ensure the loyalty of his followers.
That's right! Green had no intention of surviving the twenty-odd exiles in the first place! And this is the reason why Green did not follow the church's arrangement and recruited mercenaries. No one cares about the lives of these exiles, but if dozens of mercenaries suddenly lose their amnesia en masse, it is impossible not to attract attention.
"Resurrection!" Green begins to resurrect the Grey Dwarves.
Black magic covered the corpse like mud, pouring into it.
Tens of seconds later, the corpse suddenly burst out, and the heartbeat resumed beating.
Green withdrew his fingers, glanced at the consumption, and couldn't help but sigh: "The price of resurrection is too high, if only we could find other stable means that can make the other party amnesia." ”
It takes 40~50 points of chaos magic to resurrect one person, and there are more than twenty people under the floating city, if they are all resurrected, thousands of chaos magic points will be needed! This kind of consumption is obviously unacceptable to Green, so Green has developed a relatively cheap "Demon Seed", but the result is not very satisfactory - although the user is dead and resurrected, he does not have amnesia.
After a few moments, the gray dwarf opened his eyes and looked at Green blankly.
"Collar ...... Your Excellency? ”
"Hmm...... By the way, you just said for what reason you were arrested? I didn't hear clearly. ”
The gray dwarf looked at Grimm with a creepy look: "I...... I don't know, my lord, I don't know anything! ”
"Don't you know?" Green blinked, "So what do you think of the group down there?" You've been on an airship with them for so long, you should know something about them, right? Tell us what you think. ”
"I don't know Lord Lord, I don't know anything!" The gray dwarf's face was full of fear, "I will follow your arrangement, and I will do whatever you tell me to do!" ”
Green looked at the gray dwarf in front of him and couldn't help frowning. Is this amnesia, or is it not amnesia? Or did you lose most of your memories, but you were left with instinctive fear?
