A thick fog shrouded the castle in the night, making it even more obscure, making it unpredictable whether the castle really existed. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

The road leading to the castle is a stone bridge over a cliff, the stone bridge is not narrow, but it is not wide, if it is in the daytime, it is fine, at night walking on this bridge that does not see the five fingers, if you are not careful, you will fall into the abyss, this situation and this scene anyone passing by has to shiver, not to mention the wailing of wild beasts from time to time under the abyss.

The abyss below the cliff is said to be a forest, and even the locals don't know how big the forest is and how many strange beasts there are. It is said that 9 or 10 years ago, someone saw a strange beast that could shoot golden light and blow a hurricane out of this forest, and of course, everyone had heard too much of that legend at the tea table.

What kind of world is inside this castle, most people in this country do not know, the only thing they know is that this symbol of their national power sits on the highest mountain of the island nation, and it takes tens of thousands of steps to climb from the bottom of the mountain. People wondered how the people of the castle could endure the whole day's journey, but the mystery of the country had given them the best answer - it was not something they should be concerned about.

The current king, Nissac Gikos, has a laissez-faire policy, and since he took office fifteen years ago, he has not been seen issuing a single decree, giving alms, or building any facilities. People began to feel that everything in this kingdom had nothing to do with them, that they were just strangers living here.

The night was filled with water vapor, the full moon was glowing, and on the top of this hill, a figure was heading towards the castle. He strode onto the stone bridge, seemingly unconcerned about the abyss below the stone bridge, and he looked at what seemed to be a dark front for ordinary people, without the slightest intention of slowing down.

The figure seemed to be dressed in a black robe, and if it weren't for the wind blowing the corners of his skirt, he would have become one with the night. Perhaps he was already familiar with the journey, so he walked so quickly towards the castle. Who was this man in black robes? Why did he visit the castle at this time? The answer finally emerged when the faint light of the fire at the castle gate illuminated his white-haired face with a one-sided blindfold.

He was Tsard, the archmage of Mille's kingdom and the king's right-hand man.

This was five days before Vasilian and Oden's fleet set sail.

The main hall of Miller's Castle was as mysterious to ordinary civilians as anything else in the castle, and for many years the soldiers who had been fortunate enough to be selected to serve as guards in the castle were never seen again, and the soldiers inside and outside the castle did their own thing, and neither side was allowed to interfere with the other's jurisdiction - although I heard that there had been an exception nine years ago in order to hunt down a prisoner. Once you enter the castle, you have to work in it for the rest of your life!" So many of Miller's warriors would rather be stationed at the border than be locked up in that birdcage for the sake of curiosity.

The majesty of the main hall and the many castle guards were already shocked from the moment they entered the castle, but it was a pity that they did not have the opportunity to share their feelings with the world. On both sides of the main hall are specimens of various giant beasts, whether it is a roaring grizzly bear or a male lion with fierce eyes, they are all so lifelike that they seem to jump off the pedestal at any moment. Under the seemingly headless dome of the main hall hung a complete dragon skeleton, which was much inferior to Vassilian's dragon skull. At the end of the main hall was a throne made of black rock, and on either side of the throne were specimens of two giant dragons, or statues, in short, these things, which I don't know where Miller got them, all of them shocked everyone who passed through the main hall.

At this moment, King Nissac Gicos of Mill was sitting on the cold throne, surrounded by not a single soldier, only a specimen of the beast with him. Under the steps in front of the throne, Archmage Salde, who had just returned from outside the city, bowed to the king again, and said, "Your Majesty, according to my investigation, Vasilian has already begun to make some moves, and it is estimated that the vanguard will be sent in the near future. ”

"Very well, let's start our next plan! This plan has taken us for many years, and I am already impatient!" said the king coldly, "by the way, give me a pair of medicine as soon as possible, I haven't drunk it for a few days, and my body is a little unwell, since I was ...... by that guy nine years ago" The king seemed to recall something unpleasant.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

A few days later, somewhere inside the castle of Miller.

"Archmage, can you summon the Demon God by using this magic circle of yours?" King Miller asked, looking at the strange patterns on the ground in front of him.

"I have been studying this method for many years, and I have had the privilege of witnessing a successful call, and I can't go wrong. Salde assured.

"As long as I receive the power of the demon god, can my sealed ability be unlocked again?" The king looked down at his palm, his fingers loosening and clenching, as if imagining his palm as a giant claw, he couldn't forget the incident that almost killed him nine years ago, the frozen castle, the mysterious mist that lingered, and the man's face.

"That's right, Your Majesty has used the Holy Stone to evolve to a new realm, which is a realm that human beings cannot reach no matter how much they improve their strength and ability, and it can be said that it is close to the realm of gods. And the realm of the demon god is also the closest to the god, as long as His Majesty can use the power of the demon god for his own use, not only can he break the shackles of the seal, but also gain more powerful power!" "This time we summoned the twelfth of the twelve demon gods, the dragon demon god and soul eater - the evil dragon Dorag, it is said that his strength is the weakest of the demon gods, which is also convenient for us to start, but he can summon a large number of demonic beasts of Alcatraz Island, I believe this will help us in the next war." ”

"What kind of monsters on Alcatraz are nothing, as long as I can regain my power again, how can I take this group of ants of Vasilian and Oden in my eyes!

"Your Majesty, don't be in a hurry about this matter! It stands to reason that the demon god cannot be destroyed, and we can only destroy his body in the mortal world at most, but we have found a way to do this. We must first show favor to the Demon God, use his abilities to clear the way for us, and then solve him when he is unprepared. Salde persuaded.

"Alright, alright, you can start quickly, just do what you planned. ”

Beneath the strange circle in front of them was a deep pit filled with the corpses of Miller's warriors—all of whom had been chosen to guard the castle, and until they died, they would never have imagined that the "lucky" chosen ones would end up being thrown into the pit with their throats cut open and sacrificed to the king's summoning demons. Although he had sworn to give his life for the kingdom, he did not expect to fulfill his vow so quickly.

As the spilled blood filled the pit, the circle began to glow, and then the earth began to shake, and energy converged from all sides, tearing the air and opening the door to the demonic world.

The king's eyes widened, and he marveled at what was happening before him, and he couldn't hide his joy at the huge opening in mid-air, at the other world he had never seen before, and he began to laugh wildly, laughing at the new life of his own world.

Salde opened his arms, looked at the gap in the sky and began to chant the incantation, and slowly the whole sky seemed to turn blue-purple, and a vortex began to form around the gap, and from the vortex came a loud roar, as if something was about to come out.

What the people saw and heard on that day was beyond their comprehension, and the people of Mill's land, despite their years of ignoring the king's experiments and strange phenomena, were no longer calm by what had happened that day, and the events that followed. Years later, the survivors of the war will never forget the day it all began, the pillars of light that soared into the sky, the torn sky, the roar that shook the island, and the demons that spread everywhere—the beginning of a nightmare for humanity.

On the main hall of Miller Castle.

On a huge stone chair at the bottom of the steps, a giant half-dragon and half-human demon was tasting blood wine, probably taken from the pit that had filled the corpses before, or from the contributions of other warriors who had "sacrificed their lives for the country". The demon had no human features (except that he walked upright), but he could still see disdain on his dragon face, and he looked down at the smiling archmage Salde in front of him, and said in a voice that made the whole castle tremble:

"I'm the demon god Engulf Dragon, what is the purpose of waking me up at this moment?" his voice seemed to echo from a distant valley, and every word made people tremble unconsciously.

"Lord Demon God, we are your loyal believers, and we have summoned you to this world for nothing else, but to help you regain control of the world and bring the beautiful Demon Age back to life. We know that you and the other demon gods tried to control the world during the First Age, but were stopped by the hateful gods, and this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that you don't want to miss!" said Salder.

"Oh, you seem to know a little bit about that, but why do you say it's a once-in-a-lifetime moment?"

"Truth be told, our kingdom is in a moment of crisis, and the alliance of Vasilian in the south and Oden in the west is simultaneously waging war against us, and we urgently need your help......"

"What does this have to do with my conquest of the world, and what game you humans want to play here has nothing to do with me!"

"Do you remember how the gods stopped you thousands of years ago? The gods generally cannot directly intervene in the earthly world, they will choose their messengers in the earthly world every thousand years to relieve the crisis of the world at that time, and make everything develop according to their will, and you will not forget the name of those messengers?" Salder's face darkened, and every word he uttered seemed to have some kind of lethal power, and Dorag did seem to be stimulated by the words, and he could be seen clenching his claws, and his anger made the ground tremble. The king was completely confused at the moment, he didn't understand a word of what the archmage had said, and although he had left it all to Salde, he was still at a loss as to what he was going to do. "Fuck it, if only Lao Tzu can regain his strength in the end!" Gicos thought to himself.

"You...... How did you know so much about this?!I'm certainly not going to forget the guys who have been thinking about it for years, damn ......."

"Ahem, ahem, ahem, ahem......" The king suddenly coughed up a few mouthfuls of blood, and the whole person became very weak in an instant, and the muscles of his whole body almost shrank to the skeleton, and his face seemed to be dozens of years old in an instant. He is no longer at all like the tall and strong man he was before, "Medicine...... Archmage, quick, get me a pair of medicines......" The king was almost on his knees as he propped up his throne, his eyes bloodshot and his expression very hideous.

"Why, this is ......," Doraglen said.

"Lord Demon God, please forgive me for a moment, we will continue the conversation later!" said Salde and ran out of the main hall, and soon after he hurried back with a bowl of purple-black liquid.

"Quick, give it to me!" the king snatched the bowl of liquid, drank it all, and in a moment his face was flushed again, and his body was back to normal, and he was rejuvenated.

"What's that?" Dorag asked.

"Ah, people are old, and their bodies are useless, but they are just some tonics. The king replied.

"Lord Daedric, let's get back to what we just said!" said Salde.

Ten days after Vasilian and Oden's departure.

It was still in the main hall of the castle, the conversation between the king, the archmage and Dorag. A new group of guards has been added to the castle, and of course they will never know what happened to their predecessors, nor that the risks of being a guard in the castle may be much higher than going to the front lines.

In the past few days, they had gradually grown accustomed to the behemoth that the king and the archmage called "Lord Demon God", but only to the extent that they did not faint at the sight of that face, and every low roar of the demon made them tremble. They don't know where the demon rests these days, except that the king has ordered all the guards not to approach the courtyard on the north side of the castle, where it is said that there is a gap to the otherworld.

King Gicos sat on the throne of Black Rock as usual, and laughed at the dragon next to him, "With the help of your Yakika and Goblins, our Miller is really a tiger! It seems that those scum will be wiped out in a short time!hahahaha!"

"Humans are as vulnerable as maggots. Dorag said coldly, "Is that the information you mentioned before really ...... that human" He turned to Salder on the other side of the stairs.

"I have studied them for many years, and have successfully discovered a way to trace their traces, and they have been chosen by the gods to emit a peculiar, imperceptible energy. According to my investigation, there were at least two reactions from the vanguard of Euden and Vasilyan who participated in the war. ”

"Well, if it's as you say, it's a real opportunity, to annihilate it before it awakens, and then it won't come to hinder my good deeds! And only one or two won't make much of a difference, and it will be difficult if the gods really intervene!"

"As mentioned below, our nation's supreme treasure 'Holy Stone' is an item that belongs to the Immortal among the gods, and we have discovered through years of research that can greatly increase its abilities if it can be used on your demon army!" Salde continued.

"The stone of Hades...... Regardless of where you got it, this thing did arouse my interest, and you guys are becoming more and more appreciated by this gentleman, and I can't imagine that there are such interesting guys as you among the mere human beings. ”

"It's a great honor to be appreciated by your lords! I hope that your lordship can achieve your goal of controlling the world as soon as possible, and then the gods will be nothing to you!"

The dragon didn't respond to Salder's flattery, and although he was cooperating with the humans on the surface, he was still trying to devour them after killing them. The Demon God does not need any human assistance, and humans do not deserve to talk to him on an equal footing. Now, for the sake of the information in that guy's head and the stone they have, they have to endure it for the time being. After successfully controlling the earthly world, he will be able to make the other demon gods look at him differently. ", why do you have to rank up among the demon gods!" Dorag scolded inwardly.

As the last demon god in the rankings, Dorag has been coldly looked at and ridiculed by other demon gods in the other world, although he is in charge of the position of devouring souls, but there is the existence of Hades, a god in charge of souls, and he can't intervene as a demon god. The souls he could control were just the unlucky ones who had strayed into Alcatraz. It would be fine if he could tempt the world into his realm, but since the First Age was battered by them, and the influence of the damned gods, it has not been able to appear in the world at will. Although Alcatraz Island is home to twelve demon gods, Dorag has never had an impression of the first and second demon gods for many years, and the other demon gods and demon lords have never seen each other, as if the existence of these two is just a concept. The absolute authority in the entire Atlas is the third demon god "Cehir", although each demon god has its own realm, but she can travel through various realms at will without restrictions. "What a nuisance!" thought to Dorag.

Soon after, Salder received a message about the front line, a ball of light floating in the main hall, showing the battle on the front line.

They saw a dragon knight wipe out Akika with a wall of fire, a giant Akika that had evolved and fused with the power of the Holy Stone to shreds with the successive attacks of the three knights, and an unbelievable power that had split all the goblins in half in an instant......

"Is that kid one of 'them?!'" Dorag exclaimed.

"Quite possibly, after all, that power is no longer the limit of human beings, and the reaction has been detected among them. "Your monsters have been killed, what should you do next?" Salder looked at the dragon with a hint of sarcasm in his tone, but the other party didn't care.

"Next, it seems that I have to go out in person! The hatred of the previous life, let them bear it in this life!"
