Sazastan was a little caught off guard, but he was a legendary lich after all, and the moment the flaming whip reached his body, the trigger spell he attached to his body had been cast in an instant, and a strong magical shield enveloped his body, and at the same time, extremely powerful repulsion burst out in all directions.

Several demons were knocked out and exploded into filthy slime in mid-air.

Only then did Sazastan have time to take a look at the situation in the cave.

Demons, dense demons.

As far as the eye could see, there was almost no place to stand, and apart from those low-level little demons, Sazastan even saw two or three Barlow Flame Demons.

"How is that possible!"

He really couldn't figure out why such a huge number of demons appeared under the most important city of Serre, which he controlled so tightly.

Even if it appeared in the abyss passage, it wouldn't have gathered so many demons in such a short period of time, right? Did that abyssal passage open directly at the place where the demons gathered?

Or is this a passage that has already been opened?

As a lich who had lived for too long, a piece of information instantly appeared in Sazastan's mind.

The demonic invasion of the Green Emerald airship.

He remembered that the incident was solved by the four-person adventure team he had put a bounty on.

Thinking of this, Sazastan suddenly realized the connection between the two things-

This mess, those four adventurers made it?

He reflexively wanted to dismiss the idea.

How can it be! How dare they?!

They have infiltrated the mage tower they have occupied, stolen the most important wealth in the mage tower, and have already been rewarded by themselves, under the threat of the entire Searle, they dare to enter Searle and come under their noses?

What do they want to do? Do you really think that with their little strength, they can fight against themselves?

However, looking at these dense demons, Sazastan knows, I'm afraid this is the truth.

Because the abyss passage that was opened once after that would make the demons so unwilling, and even gathered so many high-level demons in a short period of time, they invaded the main material plane so quickly.

No. Wait a minute!

Sazastan's face suddenly sank, and he looked towards the spatial node he had sensed.

He could see that a large hand had been pulled on the side of the door that stood tall and guarded by two Barlow Flame Demons.

The hand was too big, so big that there was no way to get out of the narrow door, but the terrifying momentum had already swept through the narrow space with the movements of the other party.

Abyssal Lord.

That's right, if it's a passage that has already been opened once, how could the Abyss Lord not be interested? These chaotic and evil beings are eager to wreak havoc on the entire physical plane, and they will not let go of even the slightest opportunity in their long lives.

And this Abyss Lord, although not as powerful as those extremely famous Abyss Lords, has already felt the threat even if it has not completely descended to the main material plane.

The strength of the other side. is not weaker than himself, and even because of the nature of the demon, the other party is stronger in some aspects, at least, Sazastan has no way to defeat the other party.

"He must not be allowed to descend on Faerun!"

Sazastan instantly realized this.

If the Abyss Lord succeeds, he may be able to leave safely, but this country that he has worked so hard to win and run for many years will probably be destroyed.

Moreover, because of his bad reputation in Faeron, I am afraid that no one will be willing to help him, and those hypocrites will be happy to see the destruction of Serge, and will not stop the demons from spreading to other realms until the dust settles.

"Those four damn adventurers should be in my treasury."

Sazastan's thoughts were racing, as a legendary mage, he could do what ordinary people could think about for days or even months in an instant, so he now knew exactly what the other party's purpose was.

"Do you want to use that black dragon and these abyssal demons to hold me down, and then they invade the treasure house, find my lifebox, and complete the countermeasures against me?"

Even Sazastan had a hint of appreciation for these four people in his rage.

In the case of being targeted by himself, the other party actually came up with such a bold strategy, directly aimed at himself, and even implemented it so perfectly that when the other party successfully entered the treasure house, he realized that the other party had entered Searle.

But—

"The treasury is nothing more than a trap."

Sazastan did not expect that the trap he had set up in order to catch the rats who had escaped from Serre during the civil strife would now have an unexpected effect.

"My life box is not in the treasury, all you can get is something that doesn't matter."

"When I stop these demons and free my hands, you will have no way to escape."

By this time, Sazastan had completely cleared his mind, the four adventurers' sophisticated plans had come to a dead end due to the rumors they had spread years ago, and they had put themselves in a trap, and the immediate priority was to clear these demons first, stop the invasion of the Abyss Lord, and then close the damn Abyss Passage.

Then clean up the sick ancient black dragon, and finally, you can deal with the four little mice with peace of mind.

Sazastan has made up his mind, he wants to completely imprison the souls of these four people, feel eternal torment, and their bodies will be transformed into undead creatures, to be enslaved endlessly.

He glanced in the direction of the treasury door, then pulled out a bone staff, and when the staff was raised, the scarlet mist spread out, and the demons who tried to approach turned into slime in an instant.

If it weren't for the fact that creatures like demons could not be transformed into undead, I am afraid that they would raise their weapons and turn against their own kind at this moment.

That's what they usually do, anyway.

The miscellaneous soldiers were no threat to Sazastan, and even the 19th level Balo Demon couldn't consume much of Sazastan's energy, he was so powerful that he had forgotten what it was like to fight in an even battle.

Until the flames of the abyss suddenly burst into flames, forcing the scarlet mist back, and a small half of his face appeared behind the door, Sazastan could see the hateful and tyrannical eyes of the Abyss Lord.

"The Lich. You absolutely can't stop me. ”

He even uttered a lingua franca, "This world will become a part of the endless abyss." ”

Then, the surging power of the abyss swept towards Sazastan.
