Chapter 25: The Devil Who Is Too Smart
"How do you know... Do you know what Filna-sama looks like?! Beldianse stammered a little when he spoke, a pair of red eyes rolled wildly, the Devil Grand Duke is not a secret in hell, but these leaders on the main plane have never shown their faces, even the occasional small action is carried out in secret, and there is absolutely no large-scale exposure.
But now the half-elf in front of him, who looked so young both in appearance and soul, actually described it in an astonishing way, word for word, which made Beldianse very depressed, and seriously doubted that this guy was dressed as a powerful legendary mage of some main plane, otherwise where would he know about this kind of secret.
As for calling Filna's name, Acoste is not very worried, even the sick lady Talona dares to call her by her name, not to mention Filna, the devil's archduke who is not even a true god.
It is true that the true God can hear mortals discussing their own names, but you must know that a god can hear at least a thousand of his own names every moment of the day, there are hostile believers who curse themselves, there are their own believers who pray, and there are also unrelated people who inadvertently mention themselves, even if the gods are omnipotent, it is impossible for the gods to write down every word, so the gods will choose the important ones to listen to and then respond, and the unimportant ones will automatically ignore them.
Of course, there is also that kind of all-hearing, careful-eyed Night Lady Shar belongs to all the words mentioned to herself, and then write down those who scold her, even if you don't have time to retaliate now, she will find an opportunity to stumble on the other party in the future......
"How do I know? Why should I tell you? Yacoste put on a look of disdain, of course he relied on the memories of his previous life to know, thinking that when he was a level 10 civilian/level 20 warrior/level 12 sword master, he and a powerful teammate personally entered the ninth layer of hell, from the first layer to the seventh layer, there are countless legendary devils who died in his hands, even there are two at the Grand Duke level, and Filna is one of them. However, it is a pity that they met Asmodeirs, the lord of the ninth layer of hell with a goatee, on the seventh layer, and a team of legendary squads was killed by the other party without a defense.
However, under the power of the rules of that wonderful world, the creatures called the players do not really die, they only spend half an hour in a hall called the Great Hall of Reincarnation, and at most lose some of their strength.
Acoste is very envious of their state, and it is precisely because of this immortal trait that these players can constantly be active in various forbidden places that are dangerous to living beings, challenging all kinds of seemingly impossible things. Although the half-elf Juggernaut also has the mysterious thing of the system like them, Yacoste still doesn't dare to bet his own life to see if he also has this trait.
"Very good, then I have to kill you, peel off your soul and study it slowly, this process may be very painful, but you also found it yourself!" Horned Demon Beldians roared, even if he was an orthodox devil, Horned Demon felt that his patience was about to be exhausted by the mortal in front of him, Beldians looked up to the sky and roared, a dark red magic circle appeared out of thin air with the roar of the Horned Demon, and 5 Baba Demon fell out of the circle. (Summons the Devil)
Baba Demons are the weakest demons in the Nine Layers of Hell, they are of the same level as the inferior demons in the demons, and these are less than 1 in height. The 5-meter little blue fat man has no spell-like ability, they have a pair of decorative misty wings on their backs, but they can't support the Baba Demon to fly, the only thing they can pose a threat to the enemy is the sharp claws, those claws with fire damage can easily shred through the steel plate armor.
Acoste didn't care about the Baba Demon summoned by the horned demons, these lowest-level devils did not pose any danger to themselves, to be honest, this was actually a failed tactic, but all devils like to use this routine when fighting, first summon some cannon fodder to consume the opponent's strength or entangle the opponent, and then put spells behind their backs or find a flaw to sneak attack.
"It's still the same." Acoste's eyes froze, he didn't know how many times he had dealt with the devil in his previous life, and he was already familiar with the other party's pants and he knew what to fart after taking off his pants. The Half-Elf Juggernaut easily bypassed the slow-moving little blue fat man and charged towards Beldians. The horned demon instigated the wings behind him to fly quickly into the air, Acoste exerted his strength, and the whole person pounced on the horned demon like a pair of invisible wings, Beldians's decisive forehead flashed red, and the huge figure disappeared in place in an instant, appearing in the open space not far away. (Advanced Teleportation)
"You still have an advanced teleportation today." After landing on the ground, Acoste patted the dirt on the leather armor, and said to the horned demon with a relaxed face, and the latter's eyelids jumped when he heard the words of the half-elf, this half-elf can actually know so much about his own ability, which makes the horned demon who has not yet started the fight a little flustered.
"Huh." Acoste didn't say anything more, he continued to charge at the Horned Demon with Frost Grief in his hand, and since the Devil was immune to fire damage, Acoste didn't take out the Ash Bringer this time.
"Damn." Beldians' face was no longer as calm as before, and it once again used the advanced teleportation technique to run to the other side before Acoste approached him. Devils are such creatures, they are keen to use intrigue against their enemies, they tend to sneak up in frontal combat, and they are a very cautious group of creatures, if they find the slightest abnormality, they will appear panicked, and thus full of flaws.
To put it bluntly, they are just too smart, and sometimes they are delayed by their own cleverness.
Acoste took advantage of this trait of the devil, and he constantly revealed some of the devil's secrets and the abilities they possessed, so that the cautious horned demon could peel off its own cocoon, so as to find a flaw to attack the other party.
If the other party is a demon, then Yacoste's move is not good, the straight demon will not care what you say, they are simple-minded when they encounter the enemy, they will do it, and speak with real strength.
The horned demon obviously hasn't guessed Acoste's tactics yet, but Beldianse also knows that the current situation is not in his favor, magical creatures have advantages and disadvantages for professionals, they each have different spell-like abilities, most of these spell-like abilities don't need to chant spells or make spell-casting actions, they can be cast with a single thought, but the defects of magical creatures are also very obvious, compared to the mage's 1 ring and 9 spell slots, 2 rings and 8 spell slots, they turn over and over several spell abilities, If they run into an enemy they know very well or run out of their own spell-like abilities, they're almost finished.
The Baba Demon summoned by himself is of no soft use, these slow little blue fat men don't want to entangle Acoste, they can only follow the half-elf ass and eat ashes, Beldians decided to suppress the commotion in his heart and take action himself.
The moment Acoste turned his head to focus on himself, the horned demon suddenly stared at Acoste's eyes with his eyes, and the bright red light soared, and the half-elf only felt as if his head had been hammered by a large sledgehammer. (Fear Stares)
"You've been affected by the Horned Demon Beldians' fearful gaze, and you've been immune to this state through immunity."
The Horned Demon was laughing and trying to say something, but its laughter stopped abruptly as it saw that the annoying half-elf shook its head and did nothing, instead staring at it with a familiar gaze.
At this moment, in the vision of the horned demon, the figure of Yacoste was not limited to being elongated, gradually changing from a slender half-elf to a huge shadow, the lower body of this shadow had many spider-like limbs and feet, and the upper body became a slender beauty, with long and silky hair on her shawl, slender arms and neck, and two majestic peaks on her chest. The more the horned demon looked at this figure, the more familiar it became, wasn't this the figure of his top boss, Filna?
