Chapter 368: Conspiracy
Demon King City.
"What a joke!"
In a fit of rage, the demon Voss slammed his fists into the stone table, which shattered into a pile of useless gravel materials in an instant due to his great strength.
"Second princess, is she serious!"
The demon general in pitch-black armor stared at his subordinates in front of him, and dark green flames erupted from his final anger like the anger in his heart.
The scorching flames raised the temperature of the entire hall by dozens of degrees.
"This is an order from Her Highness Cecily herself, Lord Voss."
A demon wearing the same armor as the demon of karma half-knelt on the ground, and bowed his forehead in fear, not daring to look at the demon of karma who was roaring.
"Command! We have defended the frontier fortress against those cunning human invasions for hundreds of years! This time, because of a small order, the gates of the royal city were opened to those humans? ”
General Voss picked up the fragment of the stone table and slammed it into powder with his hand, but it still didn't seem to ease the anger in his heart.
"What the hell are the two princesses thinking!"
"Lord Voss, Her Highness Cecily asked me to tell you that those humans came from a human kingdom called Falosi, and they came to the Demon Realm King City as an emissary group to prepare to conclude an alliance with the Demon Realm."
"This must be a conspiracy of those humans, the second princess has been deceived! I'll have to go to the second princess and ask for clarification. ”
General Voss stood up and was about to walk out of the hall when he stopped abruptly.
He is a loyal follower of the Grand Prince Nogus Yanorrod and has been stationed in the border fortress for several years to defend against the invasion of human armies.
The mission of returning to the royal city this time is to get supplies from the border fortresses.
As the commander of this mission, when General Voss left the border fortress, His Highness Nogs warned him not to trust anyone in the royal city. ’
General Voss took this advice to heart, but when he arrived at the royal city, the second princess generously transferred the supply of food and weapons to his legion, so that General Voss temporarily let down his guard.
But now the two princesses suddenly informed them that there was a group of human envoys heading to the Demon Realm......
General Voss did not believe that the humans would come with friendly intentions, and that they must have hatched some kind of evil conspiracy.
Those cunning humans are okay, and General Voss's worst guess is that the second princess is likely to have betrayed and completely fallen to the side of the humans.
What to do? The power that the second princess has in the royal city is unmatched by him.
In this case, if General Voss personally went to inquire about the second princess, it was very likely that he would put himself and his legion in danger.
This demon of sin almost put his hand on his forehead, he is one of the few people of the demon who has lit up the skill of 'strategy'.
After a moment of thought, he decided that he had to reveal it to the ruler.
"I'm going to see His Majesty Notlion in person." He said to the cronie who had fallen to his knees, "Leave the royal city with the legions at once. ”
"But Lord Voss, this order has also been approved by His Majesty Notlairn." The cronie immediately replied, "When Her Highness Cersili announced this at the Council of the Overseers, she had Her Majesty's edict in her hand. ”
Hand Oracle... Camouflaged? Could it be that even the rulers of the Demon Realm have yielded to humans?
General Voss was as messy as a thread, what had happened to the royal city during the time he had been stationed in the border fortress!
"Did the second princess tell you what the human envoys are going to do here besides making an alliance?" General Voss continued to inquire about the details of the council.
"Her Highness Cersili said... Those humans want to visit the abyss of sinful karma. The cronie's voice sounded trembling.
Sure enough, when General Voss heard this, dark green flames erupted from the cracks in his armor, and the whole person was already enveloped in the raging fire of sinful karma.
"Damn it!" The ground where General Voss was standing had already shown signs of melting, and sharp claws popped out of his palms and slammed into the wall behind him.
There were three burn-out scratches on the walls, faintly showing signs of collapse.
"Lord Voss, please calm down! This will attract the attention of the monitors. The cronies raised their voices, hoping to calm down the demon of sin, who was surrounded by rage.
"Those cunning humans dare to touch the holy land of our people!"
When General Voss finished his angry words, he seemed to feel something, and the flames burning on his body vanished.
A large number of bats suddenly flew into the hall where General Voss was, and the smell of blood ran rampant inside the hall, and the bats turned into two masked watchers.
"General Voss, what's going on here?"
The watcher's scarlet pupils under the mask glanced around, and the hall was already in shambles.
"I just haven't moved my claws for too long." General Voss controlled his temper and spoke to the two watchers.
"General Voss, I hope you can control yourself, this is a royal city and not a border fortress."
"Of course......" General Voss said at this point, and suddenly remembered something, "Monitor, can you tell the second princess for me, I want to be a member of the group that receives those human emissaries." ”
"We're happy to be there for you, General."
The two watchers once again turned into a swarm of bats and exited through the window.
General Voss looked at the departing group of bats and began to think about what to do next.
"Lord Vos, are you going to get rid of those humans?"
According to General Voss's angry gesture just now, it was hard to believe that this demon of sinful karma would receive those humans kindly, and must have planned to get rid of those humans directly.
"This visit has the support of His Majesty Nordleine behind his back, I don't believe that His Majesty will betray us, it must have been bewitched by humans." General Voss turned and walked out of the hall, "Killing those humans will put us in danger, but I will not allow those humans' plots to succeed, I will expose them myself!" ”
The cronies watched as the massive demon of sinful karma left the hall, and the weight that had been so heavy that his knees went limp gradually disappeared.
The thinking of the demons has always been tendoned, and General Voss is much smarter than his own people, and he is also extremely distrustful of humans.
"Will the war really end?" The cronies muttered to themselves as they looked at the scratches on the walls, and every year the border fortresses of the Demon Realm were violated by humans.
He had also been in the border fortress for decades, and there seemed to be no end in sight to this war between humans and demons.
But not long ago, Cerseily told all the visitors at the Watcher Council that 'this could be the beginning of ending this war.' ’
Although he did not believe the promise of the second princess, he could only hope that the day would come when the armistice would come.
