Chapter 31: Used!
The bottomless abyss. [with _ dreams] ะต
Just as Stephen's avatar roamed the main material plane, a special wave was heard near the plane barrier again, and then a huge tarantula demon appeared in front of Stephen. The front half of his body is a humanoid, and the back half of his body is a gigantic tarantula body, covered in sharp barbs and carapaces. The demon lord was very nervous about the teleportation accident, and after discovering the rune chains arranged around him, he immediately transformed into a demon form and wanted to break free. But how could Stephen's trap escape so easily, his huge body was directly nailed in place by nine silver-white rune chains.
"Tarantula Lord?"
The Tarantula Demon was one of the first Tanari demons to be born, and the first Demon Prince was a fellow named Tarantula-Miska, but he was later torn apart. Since then, the tarantula demon has retreated to the thirteenth layer of the bottomless abyss, and until now it has been a situation of separation, there are many tarantula demon lords, but there is never one person who can dominate these murderous demons. The one in front of him is a high-ranking demon lord, who belongs to the kind that can be ranked on a certain level of the bottomless abyss, but it's a pity that he is still an incarnate smuggler, so it is impossible for him to be Stephen's opponent at all.
- "Annihilation Orb!"
Stephen directly killed the tarantula demon lord in front of him, and then five or six divine essences scattered on the opponent's huge body, the demon lord's incarnation only came with a part of the power of the body, and the loot that Stephen obtained was relatively average. Now that the mission has progressed, he doesn't want to bother to talk anymore, as long as it's not the big guy in the bottomless abyss, he will kill it directly.
Meanwhile.
On the first level of the bottomless abyss, a huge tarantula demon let out an angry roar, because he suddenly discovered that part of his divine power had been permanently lost when he had just incarnated and died, and that part of the power attached to his avatar had not been retracted by death. This made him quickly realize that he had been tricked, that it was a conspiracy against him, and that the plot was orchestrated by his ally, a spider lord who was no weaker than him. The other party knew that this was a trap and deceived him to go over, obviously intending to weaken his power and even take the opportunity to annex his territory.
And now he has to find a way to remedy it all!
Soon.
This cunning demon lord thought of a solution, that is, there was a weaker demon lord near his territory, although the relationship between the two sides was okay, but because the territory was relatively close, there was also a fight in secret.
"If you can trick him into getting there, he will be killed by that man once!"
"Then I can invade his territory, then kill him, take his power, and annex his territory...... That way, even if the spider demon invades me next, I can resist ......."
What if you're weakened for some reason?
Naturally, it is to trick the other people around you into it, make them weak too, and then take the opportunity to kill them and devour everything they have, whether they are enemies or allies. It's a good thing that the enemy is weaker, you can take the opportunity to destroy them, and it doesn't matter if the allies are weaker, because you are now equal again. In the bottomless abyss, there are not so many benevolent morals, and the covenants between demon lords are very fragile, and after realizing that they have been trapped, the first thing that the tarantula demon thinks of is the people who are the most threatening around him, and then thinks about how to trick them into the trap.
"Damn the Spider Demon Lord! Damn the Spider God Queen......"
"I knew they couldn't trust ......"
The demon has the cunning of the demon, and he must make a plan as soon as possible, because the Spider Demon Lords have coveted the thirteenth layer of the bottomless abyss for a long time, and they are likely to take the opportunity to invade here.
Plane of matter. Amber City.
Stephen traveled all the way from the territory of the orcs to this place called Amber City, originally he wanted to go to the battlefield of the southern countries to have a look, but I don't know why the bottomless abyss suddenly went wrong, and several demon lords wanted to smuggle into the main material plane one after another, and Stephen of course killed these people mercilessly. Although the loot ushered in a bumper harvest, because the bottomless abyss shared too much attention, Stephen's avatar could only roam casually. Fortunately, those demon lords didn't rush out after all, and Stephen finally had time to rest for a while after killing more than a dozen demon lords in succession.
He felt that he might have been taken advantage of.
The demon lords who fell into his hands shouted about what a conspiracy trap was abominable, and then Stephen was cleanly killed. Stephen suspects that Spider-God-Rose may be using him to weaken some of the Demon Lords, because at first he encountered two or three powerful demons with spider-body characteristics in succession, and it is highly likely that these people were the targets of the Spider-God-Rose's desire to eliminate the annexation. He estimated that soon after he killed the incarnation of these demon lords, it was very likely that their territory would welcome other invaders.
However, although it was said that he was being used, Stephen was not so angry.
He just added a little more workload, but the loot he harvested was also a lot, and the divine essence dropped had reached the point where he couldn't digest it, so he could only save it first and absorb it slowly. To be honest, there are really many demon lords in the bottomless abyss, and there are 666 layers of levels that can be known here, and almost every layer has one or two powerful demon lords, plus several other lower demon lords. These demon lords who were killed were basically the first fifty layers of the bottomless abyss, and there were more than six hundred and ten layers of space below the fifty floors, so it can be said that many demon lords were still relatively honest this time.
Of course, the Demon Lord can't pour out too much at once, and if there are too many of them, Stephen will be in a hurry, and in the end, I'm afraid he can only use the Eternal Blazing Sun to clear the scene.
"There is water and food here. โ
"Don't crowd!"
"Please queue up in an orderly manner...... ...... where food is available to all."
Outside Lake City, Stephen saw thousands of ragged refugees who had fled the borders of the South, many of whom had been forced to flee their homes as the war escalated. The people who are helping these refugees are a group of young and beautiful young priests, they wear the insignia of the 'Goddess of Spring and Peace', although this goddess holds the priesthood of [peace], but her strength is only weak, and she has nothing to do in the face of war, because she has no power to stop those wars, she can only help some suffering civilians, and peace is quite humble in this world full of countless strife.
