Volume II, Chapter 79
With Chatai personally on the field, this situation is different, how to say that he is also the head of a small group, and he has some contacts with the leaders of other small groups.
These leaders were familiar with the voice of the inspector, and when they heard that it was indeed him shouting, they looked at the chaotic scene in front of them, and thought to themselves when they would not run at this time, and who wanted to be a slave and who was sick!
Immediately, dozens of small group leaders followed.
These small groups became more and more familiar to the people, and the more and more slaves shouted rebellion! In addition, the officers and overseers were constantly killed and fewer and fewer...... and more and more slaves began to rebel with the flow of people.
There are more ants biting elephants, and the officers and overseers are in front of the more than 100,000 slaves who really began to rebel...... It's not worth mentioning, it's not worth mentioning at all!
In the blink of an eye, the slaves rushed into the main camp of the Demon Coalition and began to grab things to equip themselves, because everyone in the camp went to the battlefield, and the slaves rushed up and trampled the few guards who stayed behind into meat sauce.
And the officers of the Divine Coalition who were mixed in were worried - these guys knew that they were a rabble, and most of them were about to run away after grabbing things, so how could they lead them to the battlefield?
At this moment, there was a thunderous sound of horses' hooves on the ground behind him! A blurred black line appeared on the ground in the distance, this was a fast-moving cavalry!
The slaves fell silent, helpless. Hell Island, the only sacred place for the dark demons to live, is not as bleak as its name suggests. The island is blessed with plenty of sunshine, a mild climate, and a beautiful landscape.
Unlike his sworn enemy, the God King of Light, who built his palace on a hill. The Dark Lord's Lost Palace is located in a vast grassland in the center of the island. Eighteen smaller palaces surround the palace of confusion. It seems that this pattern can reveal the supremacy of the Dark Lord.
And the Dark Demon Temple, which claims to serve the Dark Demon Clan, has a foothold in a clearing on the edge of the island.
Now, two men in golden robes were kneeling outside the gate of a palace, their bodies motionless and their expressions even more solemn.
These two are the golden-robed priests of the Dark Demon Temple.
The golden-robed priest, who is the highest-ranking and most powerful person in the Dark Demon Temple. There are three in total, namely the right sacrifice, the left sacrifice, and the chief sacrifice. It was these three people who were in charge of the affairs of the Dark Demon Temple, and their more than 10,000 priests of all levels were spread throughout the Demon Alliance.
In the Union. All things, big and small, can't escape their ears and eyes. In terms of personal rights, they were no match for the red-clad priests of the Temple of Light, who belonged to the Divine Alliance.
Now those who kneel on the ground are the right sacrifice and the left sacrifice.
There was a faint sound of footsteps, and the two priests lowered their bodies.
"Get up!" walked a demon woman who looked no different from a human but had two pure black wings behind her: "Follow me." β
"Yes, sir. β
Human beings have to be cautious in front of the demons, even in front of such a low-level demons. The two golden-robed priests followed behind this female demon clan, and they didn't even dare to breathe a mouthful.
Walking through the courtyard, skirting a row of houses, they entered the gardens of the palace. Stop by a gazebo.
"Your Royal Highness the Eldest Princess," the demon who led the way walked into the pavilion. Saluted to a female demon standing with her back to several people: "Two golden-robed priests are here. β
"Got it, you go down!" replied, the demon known as the eldest princess, but did not turn around.
Judging from her back, this female demon with folded wings is tall, and although she is only wearing a simple light purple robe, her posture can be called graceful.
The two priests knelt down again and said in unison, "The Left Priest of the Golden Robe and the Right Priest of the Golden Robe of the Dark Demon Temple have come to Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess and extend my heartfelt greetings to my lordship. β
"Is there anything important that you have come to see me?"
"Yes, sir. The two of us came to report that the war between gods and demons had ended, and that the alliance of gods and demons had signed a peace treaty for defeat, and promised to compensate us with a large amount of supplies. β
"In this way, the war is won. β
"Yes, sir. We won. β
"It turned out to be a victory," said the eldest princess, "that...... Tell me, if it is a victory, why should a battle that should only be fought on the dividing line, but tear an empire in the alliance to pieces?"
"Your Excellency, forgiveness!" Hearing the eldest princess in charge of the Demon Palace's question, the two golden-robed priests were suddenly frightened: "This is completely unexpected...... There is a word about that army, we all know about it. β
"Say!"
"Yes, my lord!" Zuo Sai cleared his throat, "The army called the Phantom Legion is actually a legion secretly formed by the Divine Alliance in order to win. Called the Ninth Legion by the Divine Alliance, the commander is Cohen, a hereditary nobleman of the Divine Blessed Empire and a knight of the Divine Blessing. Al Qaeda. The legion claims to be 70,000 slave soldiers, but the real number is 250,000, and the soldiers are well-trained and well-equipped, and the Divine Alliance has even developed a large fleet in order to cooperate with them......"
"Wait," the eldest princess interrupted Zuo Priest's words, "You just said Divine Bless Knight?"
"Yes, my lord!" replied hurriedly, "Cohen." Al Qaida is indeed the new generation of Divine Knights. β
"Is it newly sealed?" said the eldest princess, "this Cohen." Kaida shouldn't be under twenty years old, right?"
"Yes, my lord......"
"It's a little strange that such a young human can lead 200,000. β
"Your Excellency," echoed the right priest, "maybe the commander has someone else." β
"You say the war is over," the eldest princess said lightly, "So, this Ninth Legion should have been defeated, right?"
As soon as he heard this, the two priests sweated like rain...... The victory they spoke of was nothing more than a written victory, and it was the fourth day that the Ninth Legion of the Divine Alliance was besieged in Tucheng.
But now the eldest princess asked, how would she answer?
Finally, Zuo Saiyi gritted his teeth: "Yes." My lord. The whole army of the Divine Alliance was defeated by us. There is no doubt about it!, but there is no specific mention of the Ninth Legion in the war reports. So we don't know very much about it. β
"Hmm...... I know what you have returned. The eldest princess's words paused slightly: "Go and ask the military department, if the commander of this legion is captured, send it directly to me." β
"Yes, sir. β
"Go down. β
"Say goodbye to your ......"
After the two golden-robed priests left, the demon princess turned around.
Take a closer look, her appearance really lives up to the status of a princess. Under the beautiful crescent moon eyebrows are bright and clear big eyes, a straight nose bridge, small bright red lips and a well-defined melon seed face, and the whole person's temperament looks quite dignified.
But a slight step forward. Her temperament became enchanting, and with her impeccable posture, every part of her entire body became extremely attractive.
As long as she moves slightly, her beauty can conquer all beauty-loving men, and no one can resist a body that combines dignified and bewitching.
The eldest princess of the demon clan smiled lightly at the empty fence beside her, and her jade-like delicate face was like a spring breeze blowing, and she suddenly became very kind.
"Ahh Another female demon appeared from the fence, and after a low cry, she smiled very much, her hands lightly covered a beautiful melon seed face, and her eccentric expression was permeated in the natural seductiveness and charm of demon women. There is innocence in the dignified, and there is purity in the temptation...... A hundred times more beautiful than her eldest sister.
"You, you're the little princess of the demons. If you have nothing to do, you just run around and become something. The eldest princess walked up to her sister and sat down: "What's so nice about running here to eavesdrop on these priests?"
The little princess pouted: "It's all your fault! The sisters have all occupied the positions, so I have nothing to do, of course I will be bored!"
"Please, little sister," seeing her little sister's expression, the eldest princess said, "According to the age of human beings, you are also close to two thousand years old, so give up this childish expression completely, okay?"
The little princess was completely angry, but it was true: "Don't!"
"Okay, don't be angry. The eldest princess seemed to have no way to take this sister: "My little sister is the most beautiful witch, and she will become ugly when she is angry." β
"Then you sue me, why did you ask the priests to send that blessed knight to us? β
"The priests are terrified, there is no choice in telling lies, as long as it is not relevant to the overall situation, it is better to let them fool the past, it is not good for us to be too demanding. The eldest princess said, "As for this Cohen." Al Qaeda ...... If this Blessed Knight is really good, I'll turn him into a demon of slaughter. β
"Killing Demon......" said the little princess, "isn't that very powerful?"
"Of course, humanity's most dangerous enemy is themselves, and if we give us the slightest temptation, they will take refuge. The eldest princess took her sister's hand: "Are you satisfied now? β
"You're so busy that you don't have time to talk to me. The little princess said, "Why did Father let you do these things?"
"Because humans are a strange race," the eldest princess explained, "they are more receptive to female leadership than men, and that's because ......"
"Don't listen to this, I'm leaving. The little princess's body moved slightly, and it was gone.
Looking at this younger sister, the eldest princess could only shake her head helplessly.
And the two priests who returned to the Dark Demon Temple were instructing their subordinates to immediately send griffons to quickly inform the Demon Alliance Army Headquarters of today's meeting.
Demon Alliance Brook Empire, capital Fox Castle, Demon Coalition military headquarters.
"Good day, my lord!" a group of generals greet the Dark Demon Temple's overseer priest in front of the military headquartersβone of the three rulers of the Dark Demon Temple, the golden-robed chief priest.
"May the Dark Lord bless you, and have a good day, generals. The golden-robed chief priest stepped out of his carriage and slowly walked in front of these generals: "Is Marshal Verlaine in the military headquarters?"
"Yes, sir. The marshal is looking forward to your arrival. The Chief of Staff of the Demon Coalition approached as he spoke, smiling.
He was a general, so he didn't have to run to the gate to greet him, but as one of the candidates for the next Coalition Commander, he wanted to make a good impression on the Dark Demon Temple's golden-robed chief priest.
"Really, let's go to the marshal!" the golden-robed chief priest nodded: "There are many things to discuss with the marshal. β
"Please go this way. Chief priest. The General Staff officer took a few steps back. Then he walked behind the chief priest of the golden robe.
"Your Excellency, Officer. I haven't seen you for a few years, and you're already a general!" The golden-robed chief priest walked on the long steps and said softly: "Time is long, this day flies so fast. β
"The chief priest laughed," the chief of staff replied with a smile, "remember...... When I was studying in the Demon Palace, I was awarded the rank of Major General by the Chief Priest!"
"Do you remember such a trivial matter? I'm just a priest of the Demon Temple, how can I compare to you, the admiral whom everyone admires. The priest chuckled, "Everything has changed." It's the same as before. β
"Master Priest, don't make fun of me. The General Staff Officer cautiously replied: "What about the Admiral? Not a layman, I don't dare to compare with the officials of the Demon Palace." β
"Don't be so restrained, the war between gods and demons is our victory, everyone should be happy. β
In the midst of chatting, the group walked up the steps and entered the main hall.
From the spacious main hall, which can accommodate more than 1,000 people, to the back corridor, carpets with gold trim have been laid, flowers are placed everywhere, and colorful ribbons are hung. The military headquarters was arranged with joy.
"Oh, are you already about to start celebrating?" the golden-robed priest looked around, "It's not badly arranged." β
"Let the chief priest laugh, this is all the young officer's foolish ...... The generals are going to the Demon Temple. They just wanted to make a splash at the military headquarters. The General Staff officer hastened to explain: "You know, the news of victories is always exciting. β
"Is it a prom?"
"Yes. β
"Then you should be better prepared, young officers, who are always willing to pursue the pleasures of life more than anyone else. Perhaps infected by this atmosphere, the chief priest in the golden robe said kindly: "Invite some more celebrities! β
"As you wish," the chief of the general staff quipped, "but I must first warn the fellows lest they behave in any indecent manner to the ladies." β
"Oh, hehe......" The chief priest finally laughed, "yes! you dare to say this in front of the priests of the Demon Temple......"
"I'm not excessive," the chief of staff saw that the chief priest was in a pretty good mood today, so he no longer spoke in a restrained manner: "Marshal Verlaine is better than me. β
"What's wrong with him?"
The General Staff officer leaned over and whispered a few words in the chief priest's ear.
"This old scoundrel...... Hahaha......"
The laughter of the chief priest echoed for a long time, reaching Marshal Verlon's room.
"The golden robe is here!" the guards at the door shouted, and the door of Marshal Verlaine's room was immediately opened from the inside.
"Good day, Lord Priest," the red-faced Verlaine appeared at the door in smart civilian clothes: "I've been waiting for you for a long time!"
"Good day, Marshal. "The marshal is no better than the general, and Verlon's status is as noble as the golden-robed priest, so the chief priest not only has to return the salute, but also has a very upright demeanor: "You know, the steps of the priest's travel are very cumbersome, and I am already in a hurry along the way." β
"Thank you for your hard work. Verlaine laughed and said, "I've prepared good wine, come in and have a drink." β
"Drink in the morning?"
"Come on......" Verlaine dragged the priest into the room.
"Don't delay, don't delay, my robes ......"
"Come, introduce you to a young man," Verlaine closed the door, "a rather remarkable young man...... Sweets. Major General Hepburn!"
"Here!" Svis, who was standing aside, replied loudly, "Good day, Lord Priest!"
"This is Swees. Major General Hepburn, deputy chief of the intelligence department of the military department. Verlaine said to the golden-robed priest, "I hope that the chief priest will leave some opportunities for this young man." β
"Good day, Major General. In response to the major general's greeting, the chief priest turned his head and said, "Marshal Verlaine, I'm just a priest......"
"Less...... You are a golden-robed chief priest, and you don't blush when you say such things. Verlaine motioned to Sveis to go to another room and pour a drink: "Besides, I don't want you to pay attention to and promote this young man, and it is not for my personal purpose. β
"That's ......" The chief priest hesitated for a moment, but finally waved his hand and used a spell, and a faint circle of light began to circle around the two of them to ensure that their conversation would not be heard by a third party.
"You also know that this war between gods and demons has ended, and although my rank as marshal is still there, the position of commander-in-chief of the coalition forces is over. Verlaine asked the chief priest to sit down: "But looking at the entire military department, who can take over this position?"
"I've heard about this too," the chief priest nodded, "Several of your deputies, they are all very enthusiastic about this position. β
"They're running to bother you! Verlaine sighed and said without worry: "Deputy commander of the military department...... He is very competent in fighting, but at most he is a general, and commanding the overall situation is too reluctant for him. General Staff...... He is too obsessed with strategy and narrow-mindedness, and it is difficult for him to become a big weapon!"
"Marshal, you don't want the major general to ......," the chief priest said, glancing towards the other room.
"Can't you?" said Verlaine with a smile, "this young man is proficient in government affairs, well-versed in military affairs, meticulous in his mind, and has a steady character. Besides, he will be almost forty years old at the time of the next war, and he is the best candidate. β
"It's been twenty years, it's too early for you to make such an arrangement, right?" the golden-robed chief priest couldn't help but laugh: "Twenty years later, it's still difficult for me to talk about whether I'm in this position." β
"It's because of the impermanence of the world that this is why it has to be arranged like this," Verlaine said softly, "What is twenty years? For the honor of the Demon Alliance, I even wish I could arrange another twenty years." β
"Of course, you can't make a mistake with the person you like, but it's a big deal," the priest said, "and it's too difficult to do." β
"I've arranged it. Verlaine looked into the eyes of the chief priest: "Although his appearance makes him famous, he is still only a major general, and this kind of rank position is nothing in the coalition army, and only this status will not attract the attention of other competitors...... If he dies one day, it will be a heavy loss for the entire alliance. β
The chief priest smiled bitterly again...... No one knows better than him, and while these high-ranking positions are superficially glamorous, who knows that everyone is walking on thin ice in private?
"We don't see each other much, so I want to get this done all at once. I have already exchanged views with several emperors, and they all support me. Verlaine continued: "But it will be very difficult for us secular officials to put him in this position in the next great war without surprise. But with the help of you, the highest official of the Demon Palace, it will naturally be different...... In return, I made concessions, big concessions on other things. (To be continued......)
