Since Melenes is a subordinate of the Succubus Queen, her preferred place to retreat after encountering a dangerous situation is, of course, the Starry Plains. But what is wrong with Melenes is just a trap for Gordon.

"I have a prop from Her Majesty the Queen, which can create a passage to the Starry Plain. As long as this item is used in the Endless Abyss, it can ignore the effects of other anti-space teleportation spells. I believe that I am the only one in the city of symmetry who can leave in the current situation. Melenes looked at Gordon with a smirk, a hint of triumphant.

The succubus thinks he's got the upper hand in this verbal exchange. She believed Gordon had found himself in a dilemma.

Now that the City of Symmetry is in danger, anyone who stays in it is at risk of being crushed by the undead army of Ironhoof Ballar. But the only way Gordon could overcome this situation was to follow Melenes to the Starry Plains. This can be regarded as just getting out of the tiger's den and entering the dragon pool.

It can even be said that the Starry Plain is even more dangerous than the symmetrical city that is about to fall into a siege.

After all, the conquest of the country of order by the Iron Hoof Barral was not directed against a single person. And the Succubus Queen, however, stared at Gordon for the purpose of the fire on his body. When he went to the Starry Plains, he simply threw himself into a net.

"Well, how do you choose, my mage, do you want to follow me to the Starry Plains?"

Melenes has always been in a weak position in Gordon's confrontations. Especially the last time in the city of Frereth, she was a succubus known for her seductive abilities. He was actually confused by the mage with a physical weapon and relaxed his vigilance. In the end, the guide failed. It's completely unbearable. Even if you want to sell your body, you have to gain something. A loss in vain, absolutely unacceptable! This is probably the dignity and pride of succubi.

So at this point she was more than happy to see Gordon in a dilemma.

It's not bad to give this mage a taste of defeat......

But Melenes couldn't push Gordon hard. She had to do everything she could to convince Gordon to choose the one that was relatively acceptable of the two difficult choices. She convinces Gordon that it is wiser to go to the Starry Plains than to stay in the City of Symmetry and fight to the death the army of Ironhoof Barral.

If she can bring Gordon back to the Starry Plain, I believe that the Succubus Queen will be very happy and even give her that thing. When the time comes. Melenes will be able to seize the opportunity to ask the Succubus Queen to control her for a long time and gain "freedom".

Demons chase power, blood, death, but not freedom. Although this word is sometimes like an aphrodisiac in the main material world, it can incite people to do something really crazy. But in the Endless Abyss, freedom is a joke.

Low-level demons are controlled by high-level demons. High-level demons are under the control of higher-level demons. Even the demon lords at the top of the entire demon creature chain will be subject to the laws of the plane. So freedom means nothing to the demons. But Melenes is no ordinary demon, her thoughts and concepts. Closer to humans. It's just that although Gordon once had a very deep understanding of the seductive body of this glamorous succubus lady, he didn't know anything about her heart.

Melenes intends to break free from the succubus queen's grasp. It's a seed that has been brewing deep inside for a long time. And the seed that gave birth began to sprout and grow. It's the experience of Freyth City. The Succubus Queen can not hesitate to sacrifice her most loyal and intimate subordinate to meet the enemy's attack. This made her realize. Under the hands of this demon lord, he is just a pawn that can be abandoned and sacrificed at any time.

Nobody likes to be a pawn.

And if Melanises wants to get rid of the control of the Succubus Queen, her own ability alone is definitely not enough. She needed outside help, and she needed the perfect opportunity.

The sudden appearance of the ancient city of Seanzu changed the political pattern of the three demon lords, and made the three abyssal levels tense, which was an opportunity. And Melenes is now also a five-colored external force that can help her complete her plan - Gordon. Freeman.

What this mage is capable of, Melenes, who has suffered a great loss at his hands, knows best. And the other party still has what the Succubus Queen desires the most. So she's going to take advantage of that.

At this time, Gordon saw the expression on Melenes' face, and even if he didn't have the ability to read minds, he knew about what she was thinking. However, the mage did not show a tangled and troubled expression, but instead imitated the appearance of the protagonists of those adventure novels, and put on a faint smile, as if he was in control.

"Okay, I agree. For Miss Beauty's invitation, I, a man, didn't know how to turn down. Gordon spread his hands and made a helpless look.

He replied so crisply, to Melenes' surprise.

So agreed? Didn't even think for five minutes, deliberate, hesitate? I'd like to see how this guy is caught between a wreck, scratching his head!

Melenes stared at Gordon with some astonishment, and after a few seconds, she said with some annoyance, "Why did you agree so lightly?" Aren't you afraid that this is a trap? Her Majesty is determined to obtain the essence of the world in you, have you forgotten? โ€

"Of course I didn't forget it. But since the Succubus Queen wants the world essence on me, then I'll give it to her. It was a wonderful, precious energy, but why not if it could be exchanged for my safety and that of the girls who traveled with me? โ€

"Hmph, what a great love saint." The succubus sarcastically.

Gordon shrugged his shoulders indifferently.

Of course, he is only talking freely on the surface. Even if Gordon was really willing to give the Heavenly Fire transformed from the essence of the world to the Succubus Queen, how could he do it, he couldn't do it for the time being. Now that the fire has been integrated into his body, it is like blood, and it has turned into a part of his body, not to mention taking it out. can be taken out.

It's just that his own physical condition, Melanisy doesn't know. The Succubus Queen didn't know either. So it's okay to deceive people, and to be false and wrong.

The World Essence is his biggest bargaining chip in the vortex of negotiations with the Succubus Queen. Compared to the army of the undead in the City of Symmetry and the Iron Hoof Ballar. Although going to the Starry Plains is only a measure of equity, at least it will not be immediately dangerous.

Root. The grievances between Anissa and the Succubus Queen, Gordon has seen it from beginning to end. He knew that as long as the holder of the World Essence was unwilling, then no one else would be able to obtain this mysterious substance. Therefore, Gordon's possession of the essence of the world is equivalent to having a talisman, which can at least ensure that the Succubus Queen will not dare to kill him directly.

The rest is how to negotiate and mediate.

Although dealing with the Succubus Queen is tantamount to seeking the skin of a tiger, Gordon doesn't have many options these days, so he can only do so.

"You really don't hesitate at all. Decided to follow me to the Starry Plains? โ€

"Yes, I've decided."

Melenes looked Gordon up and down carefully, and when she saw that the other party had already made a decision, she sighed as if she was fated. Although things turned out exactly as she expected, for some reason, she was not happy at all. Maybe it's because I still haven't seen Gordon deflated.

Just as the man and woman made a serious decision in the tavern, the City of Symmetry, one of the largest cities in the entire Endless Abyss, also ushered in its fateful moment.

"Look at the heavens, there's something coming!"

The soldiers on guard in the tower let out a frightened cry in the abyssal language.

The citizens who heard the words all looked up in unison. A large black cloud was found, rushing towards the city from afar. This dark cloud is not ordinary, and there is a shrill roar along the way. Although it is far less shocking than the real dragon's roar. But this cry of the Abyss Dragon can also break the will of the enemy.

Gordon and Melenes heard the exclamation and rushed out of the tavern. Come out on the street.

At this time, the symmetrical city that received the alarm also responded in time. Barudilon sent his own air force. Go face on the incoming Abyssal Dragons. One after another, Flomo flapped its wings and soared into the air. Assemble above the city and prepare for battle.

Compared to the ordinary Flodemon, these flying units of Barudilon are different. Not only are they stronger and more ferocious than normal Flodemons, but they are also equipped with armor and a variety of weapons.

Most of the Abyss Demons generally go to the battlefield with their bare hands due to their lack of advanced smelting technology, fighting with their own minions and bodies. Even the Barlow Flame Demon has an innate whip and flaming sword, which are inherently self-contained weapons. However, it is not surprising that a demon lord like Baru Dilong, who is bent on emulating the main material realm society and wants to establish a kingdom, equips his army with weapons.

And he runs the kingdom of order very well, and has the capital to buy or build weapons to equip the army.

Flor fought in the air, and the weight and flexibility of weapons and armor were far higher than those of ground troops. If the equipment is too bulky and affects its agility and speed, Flomo might as well not equip it. Since the Flomos of Balu Dilong are all wearing armor, it means that their equipment is quite sophisticated.

This can be seen after the first encounter between the Abyssal Dragons and the Flodemons. The individual combat power is far stronger than that of Flo Demon, and the number of abyss dragons that surpasses Flo Demon, they actually did not gain the upper hand for a while, and the two sides have taken the sky of the symmetrical city as the stage and launched a fierce battle.

In addition, Barudilon chose the battlefield over his own city, and did not rush to attack, and the anti-air firepower in the city was able to launch an attack on the invading Abyssal Dragons together with the Flodemons. So for a while, the battle was stalemate, and it was difficult to distinguish the winner from the loser.

Melenes was shocked by the flying creatures that covered the sky and the sun, and the cruel and fierce fight made it difficult for her to take a step for a while. Although she is a demon, she can't understand these kindred people who can fight without hesitation because of the orders of a superior person, and consume their lives like disposable items.

Suddenly, an abyssal dragon was hit by dozens of magic missiles fired from the tower, followed by an arm-thick crossbow arrow through the neck, and fell to the ground screaming. Its corpse was surging with blood in the air, dragging a jet-black trail.

This happened right above the hotel. Seeing that the huge dragon corpse was about to fall to the ground, the pedestrians on the street who were still observing the battle in the air screamed and avoided in amazement. Gordon also held up a shieldโ€”not to keep the dragon corpses at bay, but to keep the filthy dragon blood that rained down from the sky on his body.

With a loud bang. The ground shook, and the huge dragon corpse smashed straight down not far from Gordon. He almost only had to move his toes to walk in front of the huge, still warm corpse.

That's exactly what Gordon did.

"What are you doing?" Miss Succubus, who loves beauty, would have liked to thank Gordon for the shield he had raised. Blocked those filthy dragon blood for her. As a result, before she could speak, she saw Gordon take out a glass bottle and a dropper from the dimensional pouch and walk towards the dragon corpse.

"Just a little blood."

Melenes covered her nose: "Do you still want to use these dragon blood to make weapons and refine medicines?" It's not dragon's blood. Even for demons, the blood of these abyssal dragons is poison. โ€

"I haven't whimsically driven to this kind of journey. You're just satisfying your curiosity. As a mage, when you encounter a new creature, you can't help but study it. โ€

In fact, for Gordon, the Abyssal Dragon is nothing new. The reason why he wanted to collect the blood of the Abyssal Dragon was naturally to find a way to deal with this new biological weapon of Tiamat. It's just that this kind of thing can't be said to succubi.

He used his dropper to suck some dark, fishy, stinky blood from the abyssal dragon's messy wounds. Put it in a glass bottle and seal it. Just after doing this, Gordon suddenly noticed that the abyssal dragon's belly was moving, and it seemed to be constantly agitating, and the frequency and amplitude were increasing.

What's in there?

Abyssal dragons have no gender, and they do not reproduce on their own. They were castrated by Tiamat to be fertile and were pure fighters. So Gordon wouldn't think it was a pregnant she-dragon.

Boom!

The dragon's swollen belly exploded like an over-inflated balloon. Fortunately, Gordon reacted quickly and instantly sent a mage shield. Blocked the rapid air waves and the scattered scraps of minced meat. Otherwise, he will be miserable.

Thinking that some dangerous creature parasitic in the body of the Abyssal Dragon broke out, Gordon immediately prepared for battle, and the arcane light of the Missile Storm quickly converged.

A white oval-shaped object like a silkworm cocoon rolled out of his stomach, and from inside came a voice familiar to him: "Count Freeman." Steady your spell, it's me! โ€

"Geralt?!"

Gordon was all too familiar with the witcher's voice. He withdrew his hand and canceled the spell, then watched in silence as the white object peeled away. Gradually, its interior is revealed.

After a while, Mr. Geralt the White Wolf appeared in front of Gordon again. This time he fell from the sky. The scene of coming out of the dragon's belly is truly impressive. And along with him, there is also a beautiful red-haired witch. In fact, the big cocoon that enveloped the two people was created by the witch with magic.

"It's nice to meet again, but the way you came on was so peculiar that it was impressive."

"Mr. Earl, I knew you would be able to escape from that city alive." Geralt patted Gordon on the shoulder.

"Okay guys, if you want to share the joy of reunion and exchange experiences, you have to pick a time, right?" Melenes interjected suddenly. She pointed to the sky above her head where life was dying every moment, "Dear Gordon, don't you want to leave this city that is about to be overwhelmed by the undead?" โ€

Although there are still many unknowns, Gordon and Geralt are both people who know what to expect. The two looked at each other, and the witcher said, "Since you have already made arrangements, then I will listen to you every time." As long as Terriss and I can stay away from those damn Northumbradians and the fat undead centaurs. โ€

Gordon nodded and said to Melenes, "Where's your teleportation channel?" โ€

"I can't cast spells on this street, can I?" Melenes gave Gordon a blank look, "Let's go back to the 'Blue Wildebeest'." Master, you go and gather the girls and take them to the basement of the hotel. I'll start the teleportation channel there. โ€

When Gordon returned to the room where the girls were, Venia and the others, who had been notified as early as when Gordon and Melenes reached an agreement, were ready.

"Oh, one more? You're better than me......" Geralt couldn't help but smile meaningfully at Gordon when she saw Angeline staying by Vigna's side. "Why are there always so many beautiful girls around you, and only beautiful girls?"

Truly. The white dragon Emmonris said that he would stay with the witch Faletan and follow Gordon back to the City of Symmetry. It's all girls. It's easy to attract gossip from others with such a lineup, but Gordon never cares about such details.

"You're not bad, besides me, there's Yennefer, and when you traveled around in previous years, you don't know how much dew you left behind. Maybe when you stop at a country tavern in the future, you'll meet an illegitimate child with silver hair coming to you. Triss, who had been beside Geralt, spoke.

The witcher was keenly aware of the smell of vinegar in the air, and did not speak.

"Forget it...... Men are like that. For the sake of you coming all the way to the abyss to save me, there are some things that I will automatically ignore......" Triss waved her hand.

"It's a straightforward and spicy girl. It's not too difficult to deal with...... It shouldn't be difficult to ask her for help in curing the witch Faretan. Gordon said darkly.

But now is not the time to think about such a thing. Even if he had found Triss, a member of the Silvermoon Witch family, he wouldn't have the time to collect the rare alchemical materials and medicines on the witches' list. Only after settling down can we think about the matter of the Ancient Orb and the Floating City.

When Princess Angeline saw Gordon and Geralt reuniting again, she was suddenly a little touched. She and her companions were forcibly separated from each other in Seanzu, leaving alone in the end. If she hadn't met Gordon, I'm afraid she would have been unable to protect herself. However, although she missed the Qiuyue Sword Master and others in her heart, she could only suppress this mood in her heart and obey Gordon's arrangement.

A group of people came to the basement of the hotel. Gordon realized that the succubus lady had already run this place into her own small secret base. Various traps and magic traps, and even the Meat Golem Guards, are closely guarded here.

"Nice place......" Gordon looked around.

But when I saw the glamorous and charming. And after the scantily clad Miss Succubus, there are also people who are not so happy - such as Miss Ji'er.

She looked at the other party, then at Gordon, "Gordon." The friend you just talked about is her? โ€

It seems that the eldest lady is not very fond of Melenes. All right. Normal women don't have a good impression of succubi.

However, Ji'er knew that she was in an extraordinary situation now, so she immediately suppressed her dissatisfaction in her heart. It's Melanis. glanced back at Ji'er defiantly, and deliberately rubbed Gordon's side. It seems that for this succubus, it is a happy thing to cause chaos around Gordon.

Just as Melenes was preparing to open a dimensional passage to the Starry Plains, the undead army of Ironhoof Balar finally arrived in the City of Order.

At this time, although the abyssal dragon in the sky suffered heavy losses, it relied on its absolute numerical superiority to kill the Flor Demon of Balu Dilong, and then began to disperse in batches, attacking the city everywhere.

After the dragons that formed a dark cloud dispersed, the sense of oppression was not too strong. However, when the soldiers of the City of Order saw the undead gathered on the plains outside the city like an endless sea of gray, they were probably even more shocked than just now.

Undead soldiers don't need to rest, they don't need to eat, their morale is always constant, and unless their controller dies, they will never tire on the attack. Therefore, after a long march, the army of Ironhoof Barral did not rest, but began to form a military formation, surrounded the city of order, and launched an attack without stopping.

The huge boulders thrown by the huge siege equipment smashed into the city walls, and the huge tremors even reached the basement of the hotel. The rumbling sound accompanied by the constant shaking of dust from the ceiling made everyone realize the urgency of the shape and made Melenes speed up.

Fortunately, although Balu Dilong was on the weak side, his army did not lose its fighting spirit and was still fighting stubbornly. So Melenes' spell, although very complicated and time-consuming, was finally successful.

The succubus took the lead, followed by Gordon, into the whirlpool tunnel...... (To be continued......)
