Chapter 490: The Goddess's Revenge (10,000 Words Big Chapter Subscription Requested)

"Hold on! Don't go back! Whoever dares to retreat, I'll screw off his head! โ€

"Siege Tower! Unleash a wide area of destruction! We need cover! โ€

"Reserves! My legion is running out, and I desperately need more men! โ€

โ€ฆโ€ฆ

As the generals under the command of the Dark Lord began to roar hoarsely, the original Demon vs. Devil quickly turned into a civil war between the Abyss Triumvirate.

Although Grazt should technically be playing at home, it should have a very big advantage.

However, in fact, because his triple realm has been completely destroyed, and his army has suffered heavy losses in the previous battle with the Eldrazi, he is far inferior to Aukus and Demogogen in terms of the number and scale of the demons he controls.

Not to mention these two, even some powerful god-like level lords now have an army that is much stronger than Grazt.

That's why he could feel his situation getting worse and worse.

Even some, such as Warren Buffyment, the king of the Minotaurs, and Koschurch, the king of the Angry Lord and the King of the Frost Giants, have begun to secretly plot to kill the six fingers who are no longer worthy of the title of "Big Three", and then replace them themselves.

What Grazt never expected was that he had prepared so many plans and intrigues to stop these challengers, but in the end it was the two most powerful enemies who came over.

Although so far, neither Demogorgen nor Aukus have personally left the game.

But the mighty and endless legion has already completed the encirclement from the left and right sides, and is constantly consuming its own forces like a grinding disc of flesh and blood, and it is clear that it intends to kill them all.

If he chooses to flee at this time, then Grazt will completely lose all his subordinates and become a bare-bones commander.

Know that in the bottomless abyss, the size of the territory to rule and the number of demons to control is not only about power, but also about power.

A Demon Lord who has lost his territory and his subordinates will no longer be a Lord, and it will be impossible for them to gain the god-like powers bestowed by the Will of the Abyss.

Therefore, if you look at the history of the abyss, you will find that there are many lords who died in battle or were imprisoned in battle, but few escaped from the battle.

It's not that they don't want to, but they don't want to give up the power they have gained by climbing up from the bottom.

Watching the number of troops under his command dwindle and many large siege engines, especially those known as siege towers, destroyed or occupied, Grazt's heart began to bleed.

Because this kind of movable minaret, which is two or three hundred meters high and made entirely of stone and steel, is actually another form of the Mage Tower.

However, it removes unnecessary parts such as accommodations, storage rooms, various laboratories, workshops, and special rooms with different functions, and only retains the ability to unleash a few large-area destruction and control spells that are urgently needed on the battlefield.

Inside the Siege Tower, there is usually a high-level caster in charge, and thirty to fifty low-level casters are responsible for providing spell slots during certain magic ceremonies.

Since the lower planes such as the Abyss and the Inferno are much more prevalent than the physical plane, there is no shortage of spellcasters.

Not to mention that the slightly more powerful demons and demons all possess at least two or three innate spell-like abilities.

Normally, the amount of resources it takes to build a siege tower is quite staggering.

Not only is it a long-range magic and firepower delivery tool, but it is also a mobile fortress on the battlefield, tasked with defending against the onslaught of the enemy.

If it is the besieging side, it will occasionally be used as a siege tower.

In short, it is a comprehensive and multi-functional war weapon, and it can even be said to be the key to maintaining that the demon army will not easily collapse and flee.

Once a siege tower is destroyed or captured in a location, the demons in the area will quickly lose the will to fight and retreat.

Otherwise, anyone who runs slower may be affected and die on the spot.

After all, if the tower is destroyed, then the core used to store energy inside will explode and violently release energy in an instant, and even the Baro Flame Demon will most likely be torn apart alive.

If it is captured by an enemy, the tower will quickly unleash a myriad of damage and control spells under the control of the enemy until the entire area is emptied.

Many people think that the demon army is just throwing a huge amount of cannon fodder on the battlefield and letting them play freely, which is actually wrong.

In fact, not only are they somewhat organized, but they also have countless powerful magic and high-tech equipment.

The Siege Mage Tower is just one of them.

There are also many devices that can only appear in science fiction movies and can shoot high-energy beams of different properties;

Use a super giant magic catapult to throw a meteorite-like thing into the crowd from a distance of tens or even hundreds of kilometers, and then blast away enemies within a radius of several kilometers to cause terrifying damage;

The "Gundam" is a structure made of stainless steel or cold iron with a height of more than ten or twenty meters;

A variety of oversized and twisted undead creatures created using powerful necromantic magic......

And that's just the tip of the iceberg on the battlefield!

Since the bottomless abyss is the epitome of chaotic evil, the demons are never short of creativity, and are often able to pull off rather abstract and ruthless tasks.

If the devil relies on discipline, unity, and clever tactics to win in bloody battles, then the demons rely on overwhelming numbers and all sorts of unexpected situations to catch their opponents off guard.

Just as the entire battlefield was bleeding from the triumvirate's infighting, a golden light tore through the gray and blood-like dark red sky.

Immediately after, a goddess dressed in gorgeous golden armor appeared out of sight in everyone's sight.

Wokkin, the goddess of wealth!

The Edark Lord almost immediately recognized this mortal enemy who had vowed to destroy him, his pupils suddenly dilated, and his heart sank to the bottom.

Because he is now facing enemies on both sides, coupled with the incarnation of a powerful divine power, I am afraid that he has to explain directly.

However, Waukin did not rush to make a move, but stood in mid-air and stared at each other with cat-and-mouse eyes, and after a full minute, the corners of his mouth curled up and sarcastically said, "Your current situation seems to be a little unpleasant, dear Grazt." Guess what, if you were defeated and captured today, and I was willing to pay a high price, would Demogorgen and Aukus be willing to sell you to me? โ€

Moment!

The dark lord's face became extremely ugly, and he no longer had the usual demeanor, but asked angrily, "All this is behind the scenes?" โ€

"Hehe, congratulations on you guessed it, but there is no reward.

You know?

In order to let you fully feel what pain and despair are, I have specially prepared quite a lot of interesting and exciting parts.

And this scene is just the beginning.

The real excitement is yet to come. โ€

The goddess of fortune smiled and announced in public that her revenge had officially begun.

From that condescending attitude and the naked and undisguised hatred revealed in her tone, it is not difficult to see that she is not in a hurry to kill or capture Grazt, but to slowly torture the other party, snatching and destroying all the things that the other party was once proud of.

Through this method of seizing little by little, this powerful demon lord completely collapsed and despaired, and finally became a plaything in his hands.

Only in this way can the humiliation suffered be washed away.

"You're going to pay for it! I swear! โ€

When had the always arrogant and conceited Grazter ever been teased like a plaything, his eyes were about to burst into flames, and he was clutching the +5 acid burst greatsword as if he could attack at any moment.

But in the end, he chose to be patient.

After all, the current Waujin is not a fragile Sage form, but a battle embodiment of powerful divine power.

If you go head-to-head, you basically don't have the slightest chance of winning.

What's more, there are two troublesome sworn enemies next to him, Aukus and Demogorgan.

As for how many level lords outside the battlefield want to wait to pick up the bargain, it is unknown.

Even the spider goddess Rose couldn't help but come and join in the fun, wanting to enjoy the final ending of this dark lord who always likes to play intrigue and tricks.

She wouldn't forget that Grazt wanted to recruit herself into a so-called alliance, and then use this to weaken the divine power and divinity, and finally achieve the goal of completely turning him from a god to a demon lord.

As a cautious and very vengeful goddess, although Rose did not speak up after sensing the other party's sinister intentions, it does not mean that this matter is over.

Quite the opposite!

She's been looking for a chance to get revenge, but she's never found it before.

"Great goddess, do you want to join the siege of the Dark Lord?" A dark elf invoker asked cautiously.

Rose pursed the corners of her mouth and asked meaningfully, "Why not?"

In a situation like this, you don't have to take any risks, and you might even get some benefits from it.

However, with Demogorgen and Aukus here, we don't need to waste our forces on attack, we just need to be patient.

With Grazt's character, when he finds that the situation is not good, he will definitely choose to abandon his men and flee.

The moment he escaped, it was the perfect time for me to do it. โ€

Obviously, it is not difficult to tell from the attitude of the spider goddess that Grazter has often repeatedly jumped sideways, backstabbed allies over the years, and even raised eyebrows with Asmodeus, the demon's sworn enemy and the lord of hell, and has already offended many people.

It's just that he used to be one of the three giants of the abyss, and for the sake of his great strength, everyone dared to be angry and didn't dare to speak, so he chose to be patient for the time being.

But now, as Grazt suffers huge losses one after another, new and old grudges inevitably emerge together.

In the abyss, a place full of chaos and betrayal, no matter how powerful a demon lord is, it only takes one major defeat to completely fall from a height, and even if he is besieged by all the demon lords, the original power under his command will quickly fall apart.

The only one that briefly unifies the chaos of the abyss, its ending is the best example.

In this respect, they are completely opposite to the demons of the orderly camp.

The lords of Hell have not even been abolished for openly rebelling against Asmodeus' rule, but have only been punished and warned.

There is no doubt that with the size of the army at the disposal of Grazt, Demogogan, and Aukus, it is basically impossible to easily distinguish the winner without fighting for a few days, or even weeks or months.

What's more, demons are not like mortal armies, they need a series of troublesome logistics such as food, water, supplies, and adequate rest.

And the goddess of fortune condescendingly admired the good play directed by herself, staring at Grazt's increasingly distorted and angry face, savoring the excitement and pleasure of revenge.

Also retreating to the rear to watch the play were the supreme commanders of the Devil's Legion on the front line, Zariel and Baier, as well as the eight demon generals who assisted the two of them.

Although due to historical grievances, Zarel and Baier do not have a good relationship at all, and often quarrel over the command of a certain demon legion.

But they could still agree on dealing with demons, especially bleeding the entire abyss.

In this way, after the bloody war was reopened for a short period of time, the devil's side fell into a state of watching the drama again.

On the demon side, a civil war of the triumvirate was staged, and tens of millions, billions of demons fought wildly throughout the entire Triple Realm.

Even the corpses will be pulled up and used as cannon fodder to continue to be used.

You must know that this is the Abyss Plane, the home of all demons.

When they die here, they are really dead, and there is no way to resurrect them in the same way that they would if they died in other planes.

The goddess of wealth, Workin, proved her willingness and determination to take revenge with practical actions, and also showed how far a powerful god can go.

No one knows what kind of deal she made with Aukus and Demogorgen.

But what is certain is that Grazt is absolutely dead this time.

While the battle on this side of the abyss is in full swing, in the Royal Palace of Port Carlin, located on the west coast of the Faren Continent, a projection of Zuo Si is teaching Vera, the future prime minister of the empire, the secrets of how to maintain social stability.

"Do you know why almost all rulers hope that the commoners within their rule can get married and have children as soon as possible, and form a relatively stable family relationship?"

Zuo Si asked, strolling through the garden, admiring the carefully pruned and nurtured ornamental plants around it.

Affected by the typical tropical maritime monsoon climate, Port Carlin not only receives abundant rainfall throughout the year, but also has quite high temperatures.

Even on the coldest days, the plants remain bright green, and colorful flowers can be found everywhere.

In particular, the rare flowers and trees brought back from the jungle of Chult can often be sold for thousands of gold coins in the market.

Only wealthy merchants and dignitaries were eligible to plant in their homes to highlight their status and social status.

In the pursuit of luxury, there is no essential difference between the continent of Faren and the earth.

Of course, Zuo Si himself is not very interested in these, and he can even count the number of walks in the garden on one hand.

Compared to these things that can embody the majesty and power of the emperor in the eyes of the world, he actually prefers to hide alone in the mage tower and stay with his "little pets".

"To increase the population?"

Vera spoke with a strong sense of uncertainty.

Zuo Si first nodded slightly, then shook his head with a smile.

"Yes and no.

Of course, there are considerations for increasing the population and labor resources.

But more importantly, it is important for everyone to have a sense of responsibility and concern for the family.

Once they have a concern, they do not dare to easily sin or rebel against the existing rule.

Because that is likely to lead to collateral attacks and retaliation against the family.

This is also the reason why the system of joint sitting in the law can often have a great deterrent effect.

Responsibility, on the other hand, greatly strengthens one's endurance for suffering.

Imagine if you were a poor man who could barely earn a little money by selling coolies every day, and you had sick bedridden parents to take care of, and a child who needed food to be fed.

In such a situation, do you still have the courage to give up your current job, leave your family and leave them to fend for themselves, and join an uprising or riot to overthrow the existing system of rule?

The answer is clearly no.

Any cold-blooded animal that is not extremely selfish will choose to suffer in silence.

After all, although this kind of life is painful, as long as you grit your teeth and persevere, you can still live.

As long as the children grow up and the parents pass away, the situation will naturally improve.

Therefore, the responsibility established through the family is the most important cornerstone of maintaining social stability.

Then add a little hope for a better life in the future, and the poverty and misery of the present will become bearable.

And this responsibility is mutual, not one-way, and can be passed on from generation to generation.

But without these restraints, an independent individual who has lost all care and responsibility becomes extremely dangerous and unstable.

Remember, never believe in so-called liberalism that tends to be chaotic, but be steadfast in promoting the building of families.

At least until the overall level of productivity of the empire reaches the point where it can satisfy the desires of all. โ€

"Responsibility and Concern ......"

Vera's eyes lit up instantly, obviously understanding the meaning and core idea of these words.

Although she is a "filial daughter" who has killed all the direct members of the family with her own hands, she has a good understanding of human weaknesses, and she also understands how much the responsibility of the family can have on people.

For example, some mothers even sell themselves to become slaves in order to treat their dying sons;

Another example is the men who do fourteen hours of heavy manual labor a day to support their families, and are willing to eat only one or two meals, and the food is also the cheapest dry food and pickles.

What they have in common is that they choose to sacrifice themselves in order to take responsibility for their families.

Most importantly, this is not an isolated case, but a widespread phenomenon.

As long as life is still passable and the last hope is not lost, this huge group will always be the cornerstone of social stability and the most valuable asset of a country and a regime.

Although there are many books on the Continent of Faeron that have expounded similar views, they are not as profound, undisguised, and very explicit as Zuo Si's direct to the essence.

Family is never as warm and harmonious as many people think.

Especially in Faerun, where the productive forces are not very developed, commoners getting married and starting a family often have little to do with love.

It's more like making do with a partner, sharing the high costs and unknown risks in life.

In wealthy families, children will also fight against each other for property.

In the face of real wealth and power, the so-called family affection is not worth mentioning at all.

Many families are harmonious and warm because they simply don't have anything really worth fighting for.

As a member of the former First Family of Am, Vera understands family better than most.

So after a brief moment of silence, she quickly raised her head and sighed with a smile, "yes, what you said is simply right.

The essence of the family is a chain that binds husband and wife, children and parents together through responsibility and concern.

They think of themselves as a strong emotion that transcends all else, and it is also a bond based on blood.

As everyone knows, this is the root cause of their forced to endure pain and life torture constantly.

Thank you for teaching me this.

Now I understand how to keep the social environment within the empire stable for a long time. โ€

Zuo Si smiled with satisfaction and nodded: "It's good that you can understand."

Remember, domination is inherently a ruthless and brutal affair.

Don't be deceived by the showmanship and illusions of the so-called benevolent monarchs in books and history.

In effect, it forcibly takes away a part of the wealth created by the people through labor production in the name of taxation by means of violent deterrence, and uses it to feed and maintain the army, the bureaucracy, the judicial system and the ruling class at the top.

The only difference is that some rulers will use bureaucrats and violent institutions to further exploit the common people to indulge in luxury, while others will improve the maintenance of infrastructure and provide a variety of public services.

In the next few days, I hope you can travel to the Northlands as an envoy to strengthen your relationship with Waterdeep, Neverwinter, and the Silver Moon Alliance.

By the way, co-opt those who are inclined to our merchant and burgher classes.

In addition, you can also observe through your own eyes the primitive and backward way of ruling these city-states and contrast them with the empire. โ€

"As you wish."

Vera hurriedly touched her chest with one hand and bowed in obedience.

Because she understands that this is a kind of cultivation and exercise of her abilities in all aspects, and it is also an opportunity to broaden her horizons.

She still has a lot to learn before she ascends to the throne of prime minister.

Seeing this ambitious young woman disappear at the end of the garden, Zuo Si asked without looking back, "What do you think of Vera's performance recently?" โ€

"Perfect, Your Majesty."

The current Prime Minister of the Empire, Shode Tarovin, gave his assessment with a smile on his face.

He added: "Vera is one of the most sensitive women I've ever met who is sensitive to the flow of power and wealth.

And she is not full of emotions and sensuality like most women, but always maintains a calm and rational logical thinking.

It's pretty rare.

Not even the men of the cabinet can compare with it.

With a little time and effort, Vera can be your best friend. โ€

"yes, let's wait and see how she does on her next trip to the Northlands."

Zuo Si pursed the corners of his mouth noncommittally.

He was clearly aware of how difficult it was for something like potential to be transformed into talent.

Although he also has high expectations for Vera's growth, he will not put the future of the entire country on this woman, and has secretly prepared more than one backup plan.

One of them is to extend the life of Shawd Tarowan or transform him into another long-lived race or undead to continue to contribute to the West Coast Empire.

However, this imperial prime minister, who was above 10,000 people under one person, obviously did not realize that he might be deprived of even the power to retire and die, and continued to speak to himself: "Your Majesty, how do you plan to deal with the chain reaction caused by the sudden return of Yin Soul City?

Your Majesty Ahsan IV of the Cormir Kingdom, Lady Erastro, Queen of the Silver Moon Alliance, and Fuzor Chamberbery, the tyrant who rules the Moon Sea, have all sent diplomatic letters.

Even if you're not interested in it, at least give a reply, otherwise it would be rude.

Also, not long ago, when Celul Darker completely unified the southern part of Sambia, should we give her public support?

Finally, there is news from the Quesenta area that there are witnesses who saw the huge body of the god dragon Chassa appear in the sky above the bay, but our intelligence department has not been able to confirm the authenticity for the time being. โ€

"Chasa has appeared?"

Zuo Si had a very surprised expression on his face.

Because since it was devoured by Tiamat, this unique dragon of the gods on the continent of Faeron has been in a half-dead state.

If he did return, it would only mean one thing, and the dragon god had once again put his hand into this world.

Shod Tarovin nodded with a serious expression: "Yes, Your Majesty."

Although there is no clear evidence.

However, the dragons around the tower are migrating out on a large scale, most likely being expelled by Chassa.

He was the only one who could terrify so many dragons. โ€

"Funny ......"

Zuo Si touched his chin and a thoughtful expression appeared.

It took a few minutes before he replied nonchalantly: "As for those diplomatic letters, you can just look at them yourself."

Anyway, Yin Soul City doesn't have any big moves now, just silently accumulating strength.

As for Sambia, let's wait and see.

If Celul can defeat all of her competitors on her own, then we recognize her legitimacy.

Don't worry about the Quesenta area, Chasa is not something that ordinary armies can handle. โ€

"Understood."

Shodd Tarovin touched his chest with one hand and bowed, then turned and disappeared at the end of the garden.

โ€ฆโ€ฆ

On the other side, on the border of the Sunset Mountains and the Enoch Desert in the north, a fortified fortress that had been built by magic not long ago stood in the midst of yellow sand.

This is where the Kadarin Magic Stone Mine is located.

As a result, not only is there an army of constructs, summoned creatures, and undead, but there are also a fair number of mages, warlocks, and the best miners hired with high salaries.

Unlike most mines, where hammers, hawkbills, and pickaxes are used as mining tools, elves, dwarves, gnomes, and halflings here use precision tools the size of a palm.

Because the Kadarin Magic Stone has a fatal weakness, which is very, very, very brittle.

It only takes a little external force to squeeze or collide, and it will immediately crush and turn into a puddle of worthless dust.

Therefore, the miners had to carefully excavate the walls in the same way they treated their lovers.

I know it's mining magic stones, but I don't know it's carving.

This work does not require heavy physical labor, but rather dexterous hands and keen perception.

As a result, miners would often sit side by side on the city walls after returning to the surface, condescendingly looking at the endless yellow sand, drinking the ice-cold drinks provided by the floating city, and exchanging experiences with each other.

However, this comfortable life came to an end with the emergence of a large number of nomadic herders from the depths of the desert.

From the mouths of the captives who wanted to storm the fortress to grab a handful, it was known that the Netherworld City was hunting down these uncivilized barbarians everywhere, and wanted to convert them into its own soldiers.

Those who obey can become living soldiers, while those who resist become immortal undead.

In line with the principle of waste utilization, the mages stationed here took in these human nomads, known as the "Bedai Barbarians", and promised to give them food, water, and fodder for their horses and camels.

In return, the Barbarians had to surrender a sufficient number of young men to form an army and wait for the command and orders of the fortress.

Moreover, they were not allowed to enter the interior of the fortress, and could only set up tents to live in the shadow outside the walls.

In the event of war, these people will bear the brunt of cannon fodder for consumption.

Interestingly, instead of being outraged by such a request, the Bedai Barbarians simply accepted it.

Because they were in a hurry to flee, they were lucky enough to barely cross an area of the desert with little food, water, or forage to feed their horses and camels.

You must know that there are many tribes who are completely swallowed up by the yellow sand in the sky when they walk.

Therefore, the Beidai barbarians had no room for bargaining at all, and after obtaining basic living security, they quickly chose to kneel to ensure their own continuation.

The brutal environment of the desert has shaped their fighting style of fighting without fear of death, as well as the mindset of doing whatever it takes to survive.

Looking at the thousands of tents outside the fortress, as well as the nomads who were clumsily using iron pots and coal stoves to cook rice, Owo, who had come from the floating city, asked bluntly, "How many people are here?" โ€

"Wellโ€”about twelve thousand. Almost half of them are women and children who are not combat-ready, and the rest are men who can serve as fighters. โ€

Another lich from the Arcane Society next to him quickly gave an accurate number.

You know, don't look at the Enook Desert, which is full of flying gravel, but it is actually inhabited by 150,000 to 200,000 people.

Ninety-nine percent of them are concentrated near oases, fighting for pasture and precious freshwater resources.

"So we can form a cavalry force of four thousand to six thousand men?"

Owo continued to ask with great interest.

Since he has been gathering strength to start a war against Netherworld, he is trying to recruit more cannon fodder.

And the group of Beidai barbarians outside the city walls happened to be very compliant.

The lich nodded slightly, "Yes, Master." However, this kind of light cavalry mixed with horses and camels may be okay to pursue a defeated enemy, but if you fight a fortified battle, it is estimated that the morale will soon collapse. โ€

"Ahh I know this without you reminding me. But it doesn't matter, I didn't expect them to fight any tough battles. โ€

Owo shrugged his shoulders nonchalantly, his pale and swollen flesh trembling slightly.

"That's fine. As long as you need it, I can always complete the recruitment in fifteen minutes. โ€

The Lich swore that it would be safeguarded.

"Good. With these Bedai barbarians, my war plans can begin to be implemented. No matter what the purpose of the Netherworld City's return to the material world was, what they got this time was doomed to failure. โ€

As he said this, Ovo's eyes flashed with a terrifying red light, and the negative energy released lowered the temperature of the surrounding environment by more than five degrees Celsius.

"Master, with all due respect, with the number and quality of arcane spellcasters we currently have, they are far inferior to Netherworld City. And the construction of the floating city has just begun, is it too risky for you to start a war like this? The lich cautioned.

When the Grand Arcanist heard this, he immediately couldn't help but laugh: "Hahahaha! I understand your caution.

But don't worry, Shadow City isn't as scary as you think.

It was just one of Netheril's many floating cities, and it wasn't even on the list at the time.

What's more, I know the flaws of the Floating City very well.

As soon as the other party reveals a flaw, I can immediately make this behemoth fall from the sky. โ€

"Do I need to apply for more additions?"

The lich lowered his voice and said tentatively.

"No, no, it's enough with the strength we have at hand. What's more, this is my suggestion to Soth, and naturally I am solely responsible. โ€

Ovo rejected the other party's kindness.

As the Grand Arcanist of Netheril's time, he has dignity and pride of his own.

Especially when it comes to who is the rightful heir to Netheriel, no Grand Arcanist will compromise on that.

So the Ghost City, which has turned its back on the golden spirit of Netheril, must die!

Otherwise, its existence would be an insult and a blasphemy against the former.

Unbeknownst to Ovo, however, the massive recruitment of the fugitive Bedai barbarians on the fortress had already been detected by the Netherworld.

Through the pervasive spying of those ghostly spies, Teramante Tanshur already knew about the situation in the Kadarin Magic Stone Mine.

At this moment, the Supreme City Lord was sitting on his throne and had just finished listening to the report of the spies, and raised his head and asked his right-hand man, Hajhorna, "Do you think that with our current strength, we can seize this important mine?" โ€

"Yes!"

Hajhorner replied in the affirmative without thinking.

Because he understood the importance of the Kadarin Orb to Nethriel.

Once you take the mine, not only will you be able to get a steady stream of Kadarin magic stones, but you will also be able to boost the morale of all spellcasters in Netherworld City.

"In that case, let's do it.

You are in charge of this matter yourself, and I will give you the power to mobilize the other Shadow Princes for the time being.

During the operation, the safety of the mine must be protected, and there must be no accidents.

Otherwise, once the mine explodes, the consequences will be absolutely catastrophic. โ€

Teramante Tanshur admonished with a serious expression.

He didn't want the precious mine shaft he had managed to find so hard to be reduced to ruins in the battle.

"Please give me a few days to prepare."

With that, Hajhorner bent down and bowed deeply, then ignored his hostile eldest son and chosen son of Shar, Revaran Tanshur, and walked away.

As soon as he walked on his front foot, Revaran Tanshur couldn't help but ask, "Father, why did you give such an important task to Hajona instead of me?" โ€

"Because he is more rational and calm than you, he will never go into a rage or even fight because someone has challenged his beliefs." Telamante explained pointedly.

It was clear that he was accusing Revaran of spending too much time serving the Goddess of the Night and neglecting his own arcane magic.

And Terramante knew very well how fanatical Revaran's faith was.

If someone dares to insult Shar in front of this guy, then he will 100% rush up and fight with the other party until he or the other person dies.

No way, it is the most basic duty of the elect to maintain the honor of serving the gods.

If you can't do this well, the power you have given may be withdrawn at any time.

So Revaran has no choice at all, and can only go dark on this path.

Just as the eldest son was about to open his mouth to defend himself, a Yin Soul Mage outside hurriedly barged in and reported in an extremely shocked tone, "Great Supreme City Lord, you...... Your son, Brainas, is said to have been captured in Azcatra in the Amam region. โ€

"Huh? What! Repeat what you just said! โ€

Trembling stood up from his throne in shock.

"Your son Brenas has been arrested in Ascatila. The charge was that he tried to infiltrate a mage tower, but was caught by a bureau set up by others. โ€

The Shadow Mage wept and reported the information that had just been sent back.

"Damn! Now it's a problem. โ€

Teramant's face was gloomy, and he was about to drip water.

Because the capture of Brighters is likely to expose those secret plans that no one knows.

This is not a good thing for the development and growth of Yin Ghost City.

Therefore, the Supreme City Lord must now wipe his son's buttocks, and it is best to rescue him quickly in a short time.

Otherwise, if you can't bear the magic and torture and confess some crucial information, the entire Netherworld will suffer a huge loss as a result.
