Chapter 9: The Gluttonous Feast of Chaos
Against the backdrop of snow-capped peaks, the palace looks like a giant crown built on the tip of ice, and you can't help but be in awe.
However, under the throne, there are ten chairs of different colors and patterns, which are self-evidently prepared for a certain ten characters.
Because of his original location, Julian, the "Phantom General", sat down in his seat early, and the seat was carved with a pattern of a strange beast.
It's nerve-wracking...... What's the matter, Your Highness? Why did you suddenly summon all the members of the "Ten Demon Palace"? There are still more than 100 affairs that have not been sorted out today, so what can we do......
It's just that compared to the coldness of the ice peak behind him, the face of the man standing next to the throne seems to be a little more grim.
He has a pair of monolithic eyes that can be seen everywhere, and he takes care of himself meticulously, like a middle-aged man who is very strict with himself.
But it is true that for Snippe, the head of the "Ten Demon Palaces" and known as the "King's Mind", because he has a very lazy master, he can only treat himself as a robot and devote himself to endless affairs every day.
"The Head of the King" Snipe, he may not be the best among all the demons, but he has the sharpest thinking and the most profound strategy, and acts as the chief thinker in the entire group.
It is precisely because of Snippe's existence that the horde has been able to firmly suppress the human side for so many years, which even the proudest demon king Warren will give the highest evaluation.
"Looking at your expression, it seems that you don't know the reason why His Highness summoned all the people this time? Just as Snipe stood beside the throne with a grim face, a slightly teasing voice suddenly appeared.
In an instant, a pitch-black figure appeared in the center of the originally empty palace, and this person's whole body was wrapped in black armor that exuded an ominous aura, and he couldn't even see a trace of flesh and skin.
It's just that judging from the pair of eyes that appeared above the helmet, this guy is by no means a good type, and the heavy momentum is enough to make ordinary people kneel on the ground in fear and dare not get up.
"Shadow Archon" Du Kai, a member of the "Ten Demon Temple", is one of the famous war masters like "Phantom General" Julian, but the two have a huge difference in style in terms of combat methods.
"We have no way of knowing His Highness's thoughts, but since His Highness has done this, he must have a reason. ”
"Hey, that's right, just a casual question. ”
Du Kai smiled, casually walked back to his chair carved with a black ghost, and sat down.
Shortly after Du Kai sat down, a "bubble" suddenly appeared on the ground, as if the ground and the air had some strange reaction, and then a somewhat clumsy body emerged from the bubble.
"Oops, both of them have already arrived first, and it's really rude for the old man. The man who came out of the bubble grinned, smiling at Snapple and Dukay.
The figure looked a little old, a few strands of hair were still stubbornly left on top of his head, and he carried a huge backpack behind his back, which was full of all kinds of bottles and jars.
It's just that although this person looks a little depressed and unkempt, I'm afraid that no one dares to underestimate him.
Moniz, a member of the "Ten Demon Temple", serves as the chief researcher and chief medical officer of the entire evil group, and is responsible for most of the healing tasks in addition to the continuous research on the evolution of the evil group.
Although it is rumored that creatures that have been treated by Moniz lose their original form or mind, I am afraid that there is no way to think about it when you are about to die......
And next to Moniz, there is a small creature squatting, although this creature has the appearance of a human, but the size of the whole body is like a newborn baby, which looks a little weird.
However, after the "baby" came out of Moniz's bubble, he immediately lay on the ground and looked very uncomfortable.
This little guy is named "Chiyan" Meiya, one of the "Ten Demon Palaces", and at this time he swung his limbs, which were not much bigger than the fingers of an adult man, and complained as if sighing: "I will never sit on your blister again in the future, it is too uncomfortable." ”
"Then don't sit down, just crawl over by yourself. Moniz smiled and threw Meia into his seat.
Maya's seat erupted in the form of a ball of flame with fire powder, which always looked like it was scorching.
At the same time that Meiya was thrown onto her seat, the figures of Concubine Xia and others also appeared at the entrance of the palace, and the atmosphere in the entire palace instantly changed its shape and became a little dignified.
Beneath the throne, among the nine men sitting in their chairs, the air of silence grew more and more eerie.
After all, no matter how you say it, although these people also bear the name of "Ten Demon Palace", they are not a group of weirdos who like to stay together in groups.
Luckily, the eerie atmosphere didn't last long, and a moment later, the cape-cloaked, double-horned, oppressive figure walked in under the guidance of an ice beauty.
"Greetings to Your Highness!" As soon as Riyong entered the council hall, the nine kings who were waiting here immediately stood up from their chairs and knelt on one knee in unison.
Oh, is this the gathering of the "Ten Demon Palaces", it's really spectacular.
After seeing this, Lion smacked his lips and waved for them to get up and no longer have to kneel on the cold floor.
At the same time, Violet, who had arrived at the same time as Rion, returned to her seat, silently watching the figure seated on the throne with a pair of clear eyes.
Temple of the Ten Demons...... Ten Demon Palace, at this time, Li Yong looked at the ten "Wang Sha" sitting neatly below, and there was a color of nostalgia in his eyes.
"The Head of the King" Snippe, who died at the hands of Rion in his previous life, was destroyed by the sword technique "Shura Divine Shadow".
"Winter Snow Queen" Violet, who died at the hands of Lion in her previous life, was pierced through the heart by "Broken Star".
"General Phantom Lin" Julian, died in his previous life at the hands of Lion's companions, and the cause of death is unknown.
"Shadow Archon" Du Kai, died at the hands of the Human Coalition Army in his previous life, and the cause of death is unknown.
"Scarlet Empress" Concubine Xia. In his previous life, he died at the hands of Rion and was turned into a stone statue by evaporating his blood.
"Sky Fortress" Soros. In his previous life, he died at the hands of Lyon and was beheaded in the clouds.
"Holy Pupil" is empty. Died at the hands of three knighted adventurers in his previous life, and the cause of death is unknown.
"Devourer" Gollum. In his previous life, he died at the hands of Lion and was reduced to ashes by the sword technique "Rakshasa Jing".
"The Great Catacomb" Moniz. Died at the hands of Rion's companions in his previous life, and the cause of death is unknown.
"Chiyan" Maya. In his previous life, he died at the hands of Lion, and he was killed inexplicably, so he didn't see it clearly......
Well, it turns out that more than half of this group was killed by my own hands...... Thinking of this, Li Yong couldn't help but spare his head and smiled helplessly.
In his previous life, as a brave man fighting on the front line of the battle against the evil forces, compared to the demon king Warren who could only face it in the end, in the long ten years, Riyong dealt with more of these kings, so he knew them best.
After all, when it comes to combat ability, these may be the second only to the "Demon King" and "Brave" in the world today.
Although there are also knighted adventurers of the same level as Wang Sha on the human side, in fact, if the two sides go head-to-head one-on-one, in most cases, Wang Sha will be able to gain the advantage.
Given that there are more Wang Sha than the knighted adventurers, it is clear that it is impossible for the human side to gain any advantage in high-end combat power, if there is no Rion and his group......
"Ahem, everyone, this king now has good news and bad news to announce, I don't know if you want to hear the good or the bad first?"
After pondering for a while, Liyong looked at the ten capable subordinates under his seat, and said with a smile with a strange expression on his face.
Good news and bad news? When did Your Highness become so funny?
As soon as these words came out, most of the people present were stunned, they really couldn't imagine that His Royal Highness the Demon King, who had been silent and didn't know what he was doing, and had a temperamental temper, would say such a thing.
"Then let's listen to the good news first, first bitter and then sweet, right? After a while, Concubine Xia covered her mouth and smiled softly, saying a little funny.
The good news is, Rion nodded, stood up from his throne, and said loudly: "According to the divination of this king a few days ago, we have learned the location of the old enemy of our race, that is, the brave, and the brave man is still in his infancy, and it will take at least ten years before he grows up. ”
Brave ...... As soon as these words came out, even Moniz, who had always been a fool, flashed a trace of murderous aura in his eyes.
"Brave" has been the biggest enemy of the swarm since ancient times, and in the past thousands of years, there have also been several brave men who have appeared in the world, and each time they will bring a great blow to the swarm, even a blow that is close to extinction.
If it weren't for the rumors that the demon was transformed by the "Demon Star Fragment", even if even the Demon King was killed, it would still be revived after a long time, I am afraid that this population would have been completely wiped out under the destruction of the brave.
Therefore, when the brave man appears, the whole group will naturally face the enemy and try to destroy it in the shortest possible time.
"Sure enough, it's good news! Your Highness, where is the brave man now? I, Soros, will definitely take his life!" After half a ring, "Sky Fortress" Soros stood up with his chest patted his chest, and there was a surging battle intent in his eyes.
"Wait, don't worry, I have one more bad news to say here. Rion smiled and waved his hand to signal Soros to sit down, and then said leisurely.
"The bad news is ...... There are a hundred brave people born in this era this time, and they will grow up in ten years, and then come to destroy us completely. ”
In a "relaxed" atmosphere, the demon king "Warren" said such a thing.
The air froze, and the ten "Ten Demon Palaces" that were at an extremely high level in the demon race also froze, and their brains seemed to have stopped functioning, and they couldn't understand the meaning of those words just now......
