Chapter 65 Conscientious and Responsible Leadership
In addition to "Coercion", the Giant Skull's confusion control technique also includes the option "Temptation".
The Trolls themselves are fond of collecting obscure artwork and other valuable items that can decorate their nests, and they have a penchant for enchanted spell items.
These items are often carried with them, not for their own use (as few sorcery items are suitable for their ugly blasphemous bodies) but as a reward for their loyal servants.
In this way, they are more like Kryptonite players, and it is also true.
Using his deformed arm, Lange pulled out a large handful of equipment such as rings or amulets with flying spells attached to them. He gave these equipment to the demons who survived the "Silver Bullet Attack" of Quest for free.
The fact that they can still maintain their combat effectiveness after being bombarded by silver bullets and silver mist symbolizes that those demons are by no means miscellaneous fish, and all of them have good strength.
His generosity is based on the premise that all of these equipment have a small backdoor - in addition to the effect of allowing the wielder to volley through the air, Lange's "gifts" also hide an "indication" with the resonance of spells - at the same time, the more demons wear these equipment, the easier it is for the commander of the Giant Skull to sway the wearer's mind.
Feeling the fluctuations of the ruby control core embedded in his mouth gradually smoothing out, the Giant Skull Demon Commander's cloudy eyes the size of a car tire flashed, and he gave the first order to these powerful demons who were bewitched and controlled by him.
"Lift him up! Snipe at the enemy who shot down the Skywalker before! Tear him apart! Chew him up! Eat him alive!"
The language of the Giant Skull Demon Lange is chaotic, but the purpose of expression is clear.
As if they had a shared vision, all the demons set their eyes on Quest, and then rushed to this predetermined goal without thinking about it.
"Don't retreat, use the ice wall technique to divide the battlefield. Also, where is the skull demon who went to call for artillery support? Why haven't you seen the hell roar smashing on the heads of these demons?" Quest obviously didn't recharge, so he had to rely on the "roar" method to solve the communication problem.
As the purgatory-language command reached the ears of the Bone Demons, the elite Bartzu Hook Scythe responded with swift action.
Faced with the various main battle Tanari demons who have risen into the air, the Bone Demons calmly use their spell-like abilities to summon thick walls of ice out of thin air in mid-air to ensure that the main output of the fortress commander is not surrounded, and only needs to face the impact from a limited number of directions.
These mid-level demons gathered together and fought hard to clear out some of the enemies who were in groups of three, showing no signs of fear or even collapse because of the occasional death of their companions.
In fact, even if the devil is timid, as long as he joins the bloody war, he will automatically be blessed with "fanaticism" and "fighting to the death", which are rarely sustained mental states by the Batzu clan, which is known for their cunning.
What's more, as the commander of the stronghold, Quest also holds the "real name" of all the bone demons—a power more feared than death for the order-abiding creatures of the lower realm.
They were able to fearlessly carry out the mission against the demons under the orders of the fortress commander, but the question of "artillery support" asked by Quest was not answered by a single skull demon for the time being.
Support should have arrived on the battlefield long ago, and now it seems that something is wrong with the fort's established defenses themselves.
In the defensive position of the heterogeneous mercenary fortress, among the defenders who are waiting for it, there is an uninvited guest.
Looking at the guy who suddenly appeared in front of him, the "broom eyebrow" boss felt that he was very similar to the werewolf turned into his old acquaintance "Mad Dog", but the size was much larger.
The uninvited guest stood 12 feet tall and clutched a giant axe carved with interlaced mystical symbols and a ruby at the end. Unlike werewolves, he has no hair on his body, and his skin is a blood-soaked color.
He didn't wear armor, but he had an intricately patterned arcane bracer on his forearm, and his claw-shaped palms clutched the long handle of the great axe. The hyena-like face was hideous, and the sharp teeth covered with saliva seemed to be chewing on something. There was also a twisted snake head sticking out of the side of the guy's neck, coiling menacingly and hissing with an unnerving hiss.
This is the new Wolf Serpent Demon Overseer who has made Lange a lot of resentment.
In the Acid Mist Canyon plane, it works for the Worm Tyrant, and in fact, in the entire abyss, only the Demon Lord is qualified to lead this kind of demon. Their footprints are all over the Abyss, but that doesn't mean they are numerous, and generally speaking, there will only be one wolf snake demon at most per abyssal plane.
Scarcity is precious, although the number of wolf snake demons is scarce, the individual strength is extremely strong, even the slightly stronger Baro Flame Demon has a trace of awe of this kind of demon.
If it weren't for the fact that life and death had to be fought for their lives, Barlo Flame Demon would feel powerless to the wolf snake demon's innate super-speed regeneration ability, and the latter's supernatural giant axe, which can ignore most of the damage reductions, and Tanari, which is immune to ordinary toxins, are both deadly "snake bites", which are also very dangerous for Barlow Flame Demon.
The Wolf Serpent Demon often serves powerful Demon Lords as Enforcers, and Overseers overseeing demon armies are also a common choice. They will not hesitate to carry out the tasks of the Demon Lord, and at the same time, they will do everything to deal with the demons who are too "presumptuous".
Distrustful of anyone else, and often disdainful of the abilities of other demons, the Wolf Serpent Demon is in a position of great power in Abyssal politics, but is always in the habit of solving key problems on his own.
For example, after many of the Batzu camps were "airdropped" into the Acid Mist Canyon plane, in addition to assisting the Worm Tyrant to properly deploy the demon army to encircle and suppress it, the newly appointed wolf snake demon overseer took it upon himself to lead a small team of henchmen to carry out hunting operations alone.
This kind of series of measures that must be done personally can be called the "model worker" in Tanali. The first target of the Wolf Serpent Demon Overseer was the Alien Mercenary Fortress, which was planned to be dealt with by the Giant Skull Demon Lange.
Scholars who have studied demons have discussed the origin of the wolf snake demon, and they believe that this Tanari demon with two heads, a hyena and a viper, is likely to be the creation of the ancient species of Obiris.
There is nothing to refute this view, except that a wolf snake demon bounty hunter wanders beyond the abyss, and in addition to his mission, he "stops" to visit these scholars and their disciples, and "borrows" their precious life.
The wolf-snake demon looks down on the Giant Skull, and is generally believed to be fond of intrigue and habitual evasion of war, which can be seen as a strong evidence of the cowardice and ignorance of the species.
Therefore, even with Lange as the commander of the attack on the fortress, the Wolf Serpent Overseer was the first to come to the battlefield under the command of the Giant Skull.
The Wolf Snake Demon has the eyes of constant true knowledge, and it is easy to see the giant skull demon that uses advanced stealth spells to hide under the layers of protection of the demon army. He watched as Quest led the Bone Demon Sniper to take down a Skywalker and bombarded the Demon Legion with what appeared to be a plastic spell he had never seen before.
"It's just a waste," the wolf snake demon rubbed his chin with the soul ruby inlaid on the handle of the giant axe to relieve the itch, and commented to the giant skull demon Lange: "It's obviously planned, with the goal of capturing this fortress, and actually wasting his strength to encircle and suppress a young dragon that just looks a little strange." Hmph, I don't know what to call a guy. ”
The wolf snake demon saw through Quest's true body transformed into a human form, but the effect of true perception could not see its excessive size and other unusual places, he could only see that it was a blue dragon in the stage of a young dragon.
The blue dragon was originally more proficient in spell skills, and was able to use a strong plastic energy spell that he had never seen before, although it surprised the wolf snake demon, but it was not so tricky.
You must know that the most intuitive embodiment of the strength of dragons is their size, and you don't see true dragons such as Kunudius and Targaryen, who are famous in the multiverse and are so powerful that they can even anger the gods, rarely turn into human forms that restrict their strength.
The general dragons who are used to fighting in human form, although there are also some strong people, but those guys must be at least the old dragon stage. Therefore, the wolf snake demon believed that the enemy in front of him, who was obviously the transformation of the young blue dragon, was not enough to subvert the demons' set goals.
The operation of the giant skull demon is undoubtedly from the perspective of its own safety, and it is really cowardly and short-sighted to solve the security risks that the young blue dragon endangers itself.
"I'll find a chance to chop off this guy's head when I go back, and I hope your bloated brain is strong enough. The wolf snake demon stroked the edge of the giant axe, and thought to himself.
Not to mention the "life plan" that the Demon Overseer had already silently set for the Giant Skull Demon, the defenders in the Alien Mercenary Fortress were all very careful when they saw this nether creature that suddenly appeared from the invisible state and appeared in front of them and others.
"Be careful! this is a wolf snake demon, an extremely advanced Tana ......"
There was no shortage of knowledgeable among the defenders, and a spellcaster from a physical plane recognized the Wolf Serpent Demon by its unique appearance, but he had just used a voice-amplifying spell to alert the others when he was stopped by a venomous thorn that poked into his jaw and deep into his brain.
At the same time, dozens of assassinations of the same style occurred among the defenders. How could the wolf snake demon be in danger alone? This kind of demon who is accustomed to leading other Tanari has to lead a personal guard that matches his identity every time he goes out, and the assassination that has just appeared is the handiwork of his Babu demons.
