Chapter 288: The Gap (Part II)
, after Lanke, thousands of humans. All of them have been eaten by a large group of demons, and there are traces of blood on the square. It is the tragedy that proves it.
Although the Great Demons were almost all well fed, they could not hide their dissatisfaction.
If the last failure in the attack on Apus City was Savinqiu's first defeat, this is the second defeat.
If the small demon eats a person and absorbs only five percent of the energy, then the big demon can absorb ten percent, and the abyss baron can only absorb twenty percent, and there is an upper limit of daily absorption and digestion.
This is exactly the same as people can only eat a certain amount of food at each meal.
The demon god, on the other hand, can digest 90% of the soul from the soul, so she can return up to 50% of her energy when she is sacrificed.
The only thing is that the scale is too small to attract the attention of the demon god, but now there are a thousand people here, which is enough.
It's just that if it's a sacrifice, the demon god may choose the second archdemon to bestow power, or divide it evenly among the archdemons present. However, this may make the Great Demon among the second Abyss Male
。
Because of this. Savenchu would rather take this backward method of eating directly than sacrifice blood to the demon god.
However, because of this, some of the great demons exchanged glances, revealing a hint of weirdness.
There is no doubt that Savenqiu's behavior means alienation from the demon god, and the consequences are determined by the demon god himself, but if this continues, the abyss baron will also lose the favor of the abyssal power, and it will not be far from death.
In the blink of an eye, it was dawn, the city of Aps
"What? Baron Murham's territory has been completely overrun by demons, so quickly?" a nobleman in the Viscount's Mansion frowned, listening to his subordinates' report.
This nobleman is of moderate stature, a little older, the hair on his temples is already a little gray, and there are clear wrinkles on his head, but the gray hair and wrinkles do not detract from his chic demeanor in the slightest, on the contrary. Wearing a stage costume, he has an elegant temperament exuding from the inside out, and his long-term experience as a superior has made his aristocratic temperament melt into his bones.
This person was none other than Viscount Edel of Aps, and he pondered as he listened to his subordinates report on the Barony of Moham.
What should I do? These damn demons are really inexhaustible wildfires, and the spring breeze blows and grows again, I thought that after they retreated, they would live in peace for a while, but I didn't expect that such a catastrophe would really occur!
What can be done? While he did have a reason not to rescue the Barony of Murham at the time, it also led to a serious problem, and that problem was the power of the demons.
A baron, a people. But there are tens of thousands, according to the data, more than half of them have been transferred in advance, and some are distributed in vast territories and castles.
The castle must be dead, which has strengthened the demon's strength, and it would be terrible if another Abyss Baron was born.
Besides, there were 10,000 people in Baron Moham's territory scattered in various villages, and Viscount Edel was somewhat unbearable to think of the tragic situation these people would face. But soon, his mind turned to the group.
Tens of thousands of human beings, if all of them are caught, it will be incredible.1 The power of the demon will develop greatly, and action must be taken.
Moreover, it can be explained to the church and the Kingdom.
As a nobleman, he has long been accustomed to human life as a pawn, and if he is too soft-hearted, he will not be able to be the lord of a place. Not to mention the Viscount, who holds the fate of many people.
"Someone found Baron Murham in the city" Although Viscount Edel did not appear to be listening very carefully, the subordinate still reported seriously.
"What do you say, say it again?" Viscount Edel, who was thinking, suddenly heard the words of Baron Moham. Suddenly came back to his senses, his eyes narrowed slightly, and asked.
"Lord Hui, someone found the traces of Baron Murham in the city, it is said that he looked very embarrassed at that time, only with a dozen people, hurriedly entered the city, and now he is in his villa in the city, and has not come out yet. The man hurriedly repeated what he had just said.
"Murham, Murham, are you still alive?" Viscount Eddell smiled as he rubbed his chin with his hand.
"What about the situation in other territories?" A stone in his heart fell to the ground, and Viscount Edel, who had finally found a way, suddenly felt relaxed, he stood up, picked up the tea he had just poured from the side, and listened to the situation in other territories while drinking.
When he heard the news that Galle had been taken over by Romon and that the castle had been renamed the Blue Castle, he narrowed his eyes slightly, stunned for a moment, and noticed his abnormality, and the subordinate who reported immediately stopped
。
"It's okay, just go on. ”
What a lucky and cunning fellow!" Viscount Edel thought, but after a moment, he waved his hand and let the report continue.
Although what Romon did surprised him very much, now that Romon has successfully taken over the castle, obtained the king's will and canonization, and became a rightful baron, this has become an objective fact.
The man went on to introduce some of the other realms, and after hearing this, Viscount Edel thought for a while and let the man go down. Then, he went to his desk1 and picked up his pen, pulled out a piece of paper, and wrote quickly on it.
The letter was packed in dense small letters, and Viscount Edel stood up, went outside, called the man with the pigeon, took one of the finest pigeons, and tied the letter to the pigeon's lap. Then, he ordered someone to fly.
This pigeon travels between the Intramuros and the city of Aps, and although it is a long way to go, it flies very fast. As a result, letters can arrive faster than when they are delivered on horseback.
At this moment, the viscount did not wait for the earl and the kingdom to be consulted, and ordered: "In view of the dereliction of duty on the part of Baron Moham. In order to protect the people, protect the believers of the gods, and avoid a large number of humans from becoming the blood food of the demons, and enhance the strength of the demon side, any nobleman can send troops to enter the Barony of Murham, and can forcibly relocate the people, and if they encounter resistance, they can be killed. ”
As soon as the order was given. Immediately, the nobles were in an uproar, and many nobles protested.
After all, although this did not directly infringe on the territory of the nobles, it did infringe on the people, which was also a very productive thing.
In such an atmosphere. All the nobles waited and watched for a while.
The only one who immediately sent troops was Romon, who immediately attacked1 and began to forcibly relocate the people of the nearby villages.
Soon, a few days later. And the king's order came to the city. Because Baron Moham's castle was breached, the Mexican "Viscount Fork had a shameful escape. Therefore, according to the oracle and the kingdom's promise, he was given the most severe punishment.
However, because he has established meritorious deeds, and the breach of the castle is really excusable. So, his title was not completely taken away. but only degraded to become a lord.
Moreover, the legitimacy of the viscount's order was recognized, but it was seriously warned that the local nobles were not allowed to make such an order privately, and if there was such an order, it must be reported to the king for approval before it could be implemented, because it could easily shake the foundation of the nobility. Even so, this matter is still a heavy blow to Baron Moham.
Although he was not expelled from the circle of nobility, he went from a baron with a vast land and thousands of people to a lord who had nothing in an instant. This huge change made him extremely depressed.
That same evening. I started a high fever. Although this serious illness did not kill him, it made him lose a full weight, and when he came out again, his body was even more emaciated, his eyes were blank, and the whole person exuded a decadent atmosphere, and the once high-spirited baron Xiao estimated that he would never come back.
Compared to the other group, he is already in a good situation.
In some of the territories of the Barony of Murham, demons are also wreaking havoc. There are constantly lords who lose their lands and titles, they are not as lucky as Baron Moham, those lords who are already on the fringes of the aristocratic circle once they are hired and deprived of their titles, they become completely commoners, which is even more tragic than killing them directly!
And in Baron Murham's castle, the demons are still partying.
This is a carnival that belongs to the demons, and at the same time, it is also a disaster that belongs to humanity. Screams rang out in the castle continuously, mixed with screams of pain and roars of despair!
Zhang Zhang's human skin, recorded alive from the human body, was still hot, and blood did not gush out of the naked flesh for a while. Even, the pain was too intense to numb the person. His expression contorted, likewise, froze, as if he had forgotten the pain.
"Ahh With their sharp claws, they tore at the human man, carrying out the painful torture to the end.
If you look at it with the spiritual eye, the pain and anger turn into an evil black qi and spread it in the banquet, and all the demons present are breathing comfortably, and the evil power is strengthened by a trace.
"Son, my son!" neighed an old woman who was also tied to the wall. She screamed her son's name, desperately trying to pounce on the man who had been recorded, helpless. The rope tied her so tightly that it even sank into her somewhat thin body.
In her eyes, her son was still under her gaze. Struggling in pain, her pain. It also turns into a strong evil force. It's not even worse than the man who was recorded, and it has also become the nourishment of the devil.
There is always a limit to the human body. The pain was also, gradually, the man's screams weakened, at this time. There was a little demon who stepped forward, tore open his chest, and took out a heart that was still beating, and dedicated it to a big demon.
At the last moment, those eyes full of pain and helplessness were still looking at her. Seem. I am worried about whether the pain on my body will also fall on my old mother.
Then, the little devil who served below pounced on him and devoured the dead man.
At this time, another demon stepped forward fiercely.
This time, the object is a girl.
The girl, who looked to be only fourteen or fifteen years old, immediately began to cry when she saw the demon coming. Struggling desperately, the rope was tied too tightly, the grinding skin was open, and the thighs and arms were opened. A blush.
But he didn't even bother with pain, crying out for blood and tears. Calling for loved ones, calling out to God.
And behind it, another family member cried and shouted.
When the girl's breasts were epithelial, and when they were recorded, the hall burst into tears. The archdemon enjoyed breathing.
The power of the demon god can make the people inside enjoy bliss and die, not reluctant at all, but they only have pain and torture to gain strength, and this level is of course very different.
When the girl's skin was recorded, and as she moaned before dying, the archdemon finally asked, "Savenqiu." Recently, the human army has been shrinking, and the people of the village have been relocated. We have less and less access to food. What are you going to do?"
True, now there are only a few dozen people in the hall. And it's getting harder and harder for the little devils to find human food. There are fewer and fewer people alive, and there are fewer and fewer human skins and hearts on the table, and this situation is obvious.
An army of demons to compete with human armies. Begin to enter the phase of confrontation.
Human armies operate in their own territory. And the demon has also begun to be relatively conservative, only entrenched in the human land that he has occupied, the two sides occasionally have some small friction, occasionally conduct one or two small battles, the casualties are not too large, obviously, the two sides need a while ago to recover their strength, so big battles, obviously will not appear again.
However, in the long run, this is not good for the devil.
Savinchu. One more sound. Eat the blood of a maiden and the heart of a maiden. Only then did he say: "There are two abyssal barons in the territory of the middle Paquet called by humans, if they can successfully break the middle Paquet, we will have a chance to take advantage of the opportunity to develop, otherwise it doesn't matter if it is small, when it is critical, abandon the little demon, we can move to other areas at any time or simply retreat." ”
The big demons present looked at each other, although with the continuous progress of blood food, the big demons gradually recovered from more than fifty to about sixty, this is a powerful force, but if the little demons are all gone, this group of power will not be able to develop.
The little devil is inconspicuous, but it is the source of the demon army. Even if you retreat to other areas, it will be difficult to control the little demons in other areas, unless it is a sporadic little devil.
The concept of the demon's territory is very heavy, and it is allocated in advance, and when you go to other regions, you have to obey the management of other abyss nobles.
The big demon still doesn't matter, it's the same for everyone, but when Savenqiu went, he changed from a lord to a subordinate, so don't look at what it says, if anyone proposes to go to another region, it will be looking for death.
As for retreating to the abyss, you Savenqiu is already a baron of the abyss, and you can get enough when you go back, but we are still the Great Demon, this kind of opportunity once in a few hundred years. Just go back like that?
How can this be?
With this thought, the great demons silently ate people's hearts, drank human blood, and stopped making a sound.
It was a silent protest, a dead iron atmosphere. Spread in the halls of demons. (To be continued)
