(Someone actually gave a tip, and I was so scared...... Thanks)

This is a basic ability that belongs to the demons, [hint].

Demons are born from ** and possess powerful spiritual powers, they can erode the will of mortals through words or eyes, thus controlling the actions and consciousness of mortals. Sutum naturally has such an ability, and he likes to use this power through his gaze.

[Hint] has limited effect on the strong-willed, and has little effect. But for the weak-willed, one look may leave the other party at the mercy of the other party. It is clear that red-haired men belong to the latter category.

"Tell me more carefully, what forces are in this area, and who are you?"

Sutum asked in a deep voice.

The red-haired man's eyes were glazed, and then he answered Sutum's question in a mechanically numb tone.

The power in the outer ring city of Sisos is very chaotic, in addition to the official forces stationed in the inner ring city, many powerful elders and the prophet family have also established power here. At the same time, there are also some ruthless and powerful people who have gathered some homeless people and various organizations composed of ruffians.

The purpose of these forces varies, for example, the main purpose of the official forces is to monitor the movements of the outer ring city, and at the same time prevent malicious people and monsters outside the city from causing damage to the inner ring city. The families of the Elders and the Prophets were there to obtain various resources and goods, as well as to accommodate people with special skills in the Outer Ring City. As for the organizations of those who are strong, the purpose is simpler, it is nothing more than to make money.

There is no concept of an entry tax in the outer ring city, but some organizations privately divide their spheres of influence and exercise the role of "protection" in place of the city guards, so as to collect this part of the tax from some residents.

The Xilin District, where Sutum is located, is within the sphere of influence of a certain organization. The head of this organization is called Sauron, nicknamed "Vulture", and there are dozens of people under his command.

In the taverns around the West Forest District, the Warblers are all controlled by Sauron. In addition to these, Sauron is also secretly doing some things as a slave.

The yellow-haired and red-haired are Zoro's minions, but they can't be ranked, and I'm afraid Zoro doesn't know who they are.

“...... This month's residence tax in Xilin District has been collected by Boss Sauron, and this place is now under the protection of our team. We have our eyeliner at the gates, and we've seen it from the time you were brought in by Sam. For outsiders like you, let's get a little oil and water, and Boss Zoro doesn't care......"

The red-haired man said dumbfoundedly.

"What did you do to Sam?" Sutum asked.

"We didn't touch him. Just forcing him to say some information about you. These children are covered by people behind their backs, and generally no one will hurt them. ”

Soon, what the red-haired man could know was basically clear.

Sutum discounted the yellow-haired man's leg as punishment, and then took advantage of his weakness to use [hints] on him as well. After doing this, let the red-haired man take him away.

By the time they leave here, the two will lose all memories of Sutum, let alone remember that they have been here.

"This world is dangerous, powerful angels, demons, and evil things abound, and it is not easy to truly live safely. With my current strength, I can barely protect myself, and there are risks in doing many things. If you can build up your own power, it will be much easier to protect yourself, collect information, or improve your strength. ”

"Build your power, start with this Sauron. ”

Sutum's eyes twinkled.

There are two ways to establish your own power, one is to spend a lot of money to recruit people, slowly cultivate step by step, and create your own team, so that the established forces can be like an arm, and the people inside can also be fully trusted, which is a relatively safe way. The only drawback is that the time is too slow, the process is too long, and there are accidents along the way.

Another way is to eat black and directly swallow other people's forces and turn them into your own.

Although there are many drawbacks, it is simple and crude, very effective, and most importantly, it saves time.

As a demon, Sutum undoubtedly chose the second option.

That night, Sutum settled the unconscious Eloth and walked out of the room.

The steed, transformed by demonic powers, watched him come out, snorted at him, and barked happily.

The horse, which he had bought when he was about to leave the City of Red Lights, was pitch-black in shape, with sleek lines, great strength and speed. The horses in the wasteland are very smart, and this one, nourished by his demonic power, is more powerful than ordinary horses.

If you really want to fight, this dark horse is stronger than the average warrior.

"Obediently look at the house, come to me directly if there is any movement. ”

Sutum touched the horse's head and said, "I should have given you a name - well, seeing that you have black fur all over and like a flame burning, let's call you 'Brian'." This means 'black flame' in the City of Red Lights. ”

This horse can also be regarded as a product of his nostalgia for the Red Light City.

Sutum didn't know how much it could understand, so he patted it on the head and headed for Sauron's hideout.

The place where Sauron lives is not hidden.

As the head snake in the western forest area of the outer ring city, there are dozens of strong men under his command, plus he is also a first-class powerhouse, Zoro is also a number of figures in the outer ring city, and almost no one dares to provoke him. If you hide even a place to live, hide people's eyes and ears, it is directly showing others that you are cowardly, and such a person Sauron does not bother to do.

Therefore, although the place where he lives is not known to passers-by, at least his subordinate minions basically know it.

Sutum's speed was fast, almost as fast as the dark horse Brian was running at full speed. He moves secretively in the night, almost completely blending into the night - a natural bonus to his demonic identity.

Moments later, he arrived at Sauron's residence.

The night was as dark as ever, and Sauron's house was brightly lit.

As the boss of an organization, there are also taverns, wandering warblers and other industries, which can afford to consume Sauron.

Sauron's residence is a small three-story building surrounded by a lush wooded landscape. Whether it's at the gate or in the woods, there are people patrolling.

In Sutum's mirror, he even sensed a few fist-sized, strangely shaped birds faintly observing everything around him.

"He is worthy of being the boss, but he is cautious. ”

Sutum sneered secretly. If you do too many bad things, you are afraid of death after all.

There was also a bronze mirror in Zoro's bedroom, but it reflected some content that was inappropriate for children, Sutum began to look at it with relish, and after a while, he sensed a burst of blood and pulse, and there was a feeling of losing control, so he broke the sense. Secretly scolding this guy will really enjoy it.

Thinking that something was important, Sutum quickly moved through the forest, grabbed a few small birds in his hands, shook them, and threw them aside.

Immediately, like a gust of wind, he attacked the strong men on patrol one by one.

The strength of these people under Sauron is the level of ordinary city defenders, even if they are fighting head-on, he can easily kill them. This sneak attack is even more handy.

In just a few breaths, all the strong men on the defensive fell to the ground silently.

"Now it's your turn, Zoro. ”

Sauron's bedroom is on the third floor of the small building.

Sutum was about to push the door in, sensing that the movement inside was gone, and instead took a step back.

The images coming from the mirror told him that Sauron had discovered his presence.

"Bang!"

Just as he retreated, the door exploded, and a cold light broke through the door and slashed at Sutum's throat.

This action is fast and ruthless, and the pinching part is extremely accurate. Ordinary people are not prepared, I am afraid that they will be cut off their throats at once, and they will die so much that they can no longer die.

"Humph!"

Sutum already knew about the other party's attack, and his body twisted slightly, dodging the attack. With a backhand pull, he grabbed the opponent's arm holding the weapon and dragged it over.

A figure was pulled by him, rolled on the ground, and appeared. None other than Zoro.

Sauron was draped in a robe, and his figure was as thin as a sharp sword. He had a bald head, a deep contour, and a pair of gray eyes that shimmered with cold light, as if piercing people's hearts.

Zoro stared at Sutum deadly, holding a scimitar firmly in both hands, and said in a cold voice, "What is the origin?"

His body was tense, his muscles black as iron, ready to attack at any moment. Apparently, he felt a strong pressure on Sutum.

"Peace of mind, I just wanted to recruit you. ”

Sutum said lightly.

As soon as he finished speaking, Zoro's eyes turned red and he rushed up, but he was furious.

He is worthy of being a local snake, and his strength is indeed extraordinary. The scimitar swung and whipped up a strong wind that rattled through the room. The dazzling sword light was like a silver electric snake dancing wildly, emitting a rumbling roar.

Dangdang!

Sutum may not be as good as him, but his strength, speed, and eyesight are far superior. Every time the knife was swung, Sutum hit the hilt of the knife, in vain.

Bang!

Sutum blocked the cutlass and, seeing the opportunity, kicked Zoro away and landed him on the wall.

"Give you another chance. Sutum watched as Zoro spat blood from his mouth and said coldly.

Sauron looked at him, a bird-like chirp came out of his mouth, and suddenly his body changed violently.

His head stretched up and down violently, shaped like a bird. The face is flushed and has light-colored hairy feathers. In an instant, the lips turned into hook-like beaks, hard as nails.

He lunged towards Sutum again, several times faster than just now.

This time he threw away the scimitar and used his palm as a sharp claw.

"Since you don't give up......"

Sutum said, his expression unchanged, and a cloud of crimson flames rose from his body to protect him.

Zoro pounced on him, and his whole body was immediately scorched with flames, and the feathers that had just been born were quickly ignited. The pain of the heat made him scream bitterly.

"This is supernatural power, you are a prophet?"

Zoro looked at Sutum and cried out.

Sutum was noncommittal, still with an indifferent expression, walked up to Sauron, and said:

"I just need some people to do something. Even if you don't want to, there will always be people under you who will. ”

In the end, his voice turned cold, and the intense murderous intent made Zoro feel a chill.

"Since you are a prophet, it is not a shame to be your subordinate. ”

Zoro bowed his head after all.

Sutum knew that he must be unwilling, but after a long time, as a demon, he naturally had the means to restrain him. At the moment, he just comforted: "Don't worry, I won't take away your power, what should be yours is yours." I just need someone to do something for me. ”

Nothing was said all night.

Little did anyone know that on this very night, a new force arose in the city of Sisos.
