Chapter 764: The Storm King
Since there is a ceiling, there is a way to break it.
The complex career system is a ladder for ordinary intelligent beings to break through their own boundaries and gain the ability to surpass transcendent and even legendary species.
Even dragons have their own advanced classes that can be used to push their limits, but there are very few dragons who can use this.
And the devils of dog demons have their own set of systems.
"The most commonly used means is to promote and evolve, to become another kind of devil with a higher growth ceiling and a stronger one, and the specific promotion and evolution will depend on the preferences of the devil lord we follow, it may be an ice demon, or it may be a deep hell purgatory."
"But no matter which one it is, we must use the ability of those devil lords to channel the power of hell, and we can't do it ourselves. ”
Promotion evolution, the word is seen separately.
Promotion, which is aimed at the devil, evolution, is about the devil.
The biggest difference between the devil and the demon is that the former has a strict, almost ruthless hierarchy, and Asmodeirs, the lord of hell, is the dictator of the entire nine layers of hell, and is in charge of all the great devils, that is, the duke or duchess, grand duke or grand duke of each layer of hell.
And these big devils control those devil lords in their own plane in the same way, and the devil lords control the middle and low-level devils through high-level devils.
This is a complete pyramid of domination, where the upper levels can control the lower levels, but the lower levels must not be committed.
This kind of control is directly integrated with the laws of hell, and the most obvious sign is that the path of advancement of those low-level devils is controlled by those more powerful devils, and if they want to become stronger, they must be approved by their nods, so this upgrade is called promotion, not evolution.
Because evolution is disordered, uncontrolled, and absolutely not allowed and liked by the devil, it is in keeping with the chaotic and evil nature of the devil.
Therefore, the things that plague the dog demon will not appear on the six-armed snake demon, if the demon's strength reaches a bottleneck, they don't need to take the initiative to guide the power of the abyss, the power of the abyss will take the initiative to find them and evolve them into a higher version.
It's just that the six-armed snake demon, the Baro Flame Demon, and the Giant Bull Demon are both high-level demons, and they are already at the top of this evolution system, representing three different directions, and their next stage will belong to the demon lord, and it is no longer as simple as their own strength, but they have begun to enter the realm of evil gods.
The relationship between the devil and the devil is so close that when people talk about these two words, they will be placed side by side, and their promotion methods will naturally be ranked together, so there is promotion and evolution.
If the dog demon does not have a higher-level devil who is loyal to him, there is naturally no way to be promoted, and this road is naturally blocked.
"Do you have any good ideas of your own?" Gavin didn't come up with an idea on his own, but asked the dog demon, after all, what he knew was only the surface of the skin, and he was the master.
"I do have an immature idea because no one has ever done it before, and I don't know exactly how effective it will be." The dog demon accompanied him and said carefully, "And it needs to use the special abilities of the lord." ”
Gavin was intrigued: "Tell me about it. ”
"Use the lord's ability to destroy evil, hunt and absorb the power of Shura in the body of other dog demons, if the power of Shura in my body is enough, maybe I can grow into a higher-level devil as a dog demon, and even become a unique dog demon lord, and become an existence that jumps outside the devil's promotion system."
When the dog demon talked about his idea, his huge body trembled involuntarily, which was exciting.
Every devil is interested in tearing apart the existing system of order, especially the devil himself.
As soon as he heard it, he knew that it came from the withering power of the demon prince Demogorgen, whom Gavin had helped the six-armed snake demon obtain.
Even the power of the Lord of the Abyss, Gavin can purify and refine it, and extract the power from those dog demons, it is not a piece of cake.
"It's a novel method, and there are also conditions to try, whether it's the rocks, or the Tayser Yama mines, there are a lot of caninu." Gavin took the opportunity to make an offer, "Let me do everything I can to help you, but I have one condition." ”
Some of the unique abilities of the Dog Demon are very useful to him, such as that gnawing, which is a good deterrent method, and if he is promoted to other high-level demons, he will lose this ability.
This path works, and it really is a way to get the best of both worlds.
"This is my real name." Without waiting for Gavin to speak, the dog demon directly opened his mouth and spit out a blood-red ball of light, and the killing aura inside rushed to his face.
Everything in his body now is given by Gavin, and the only thing that doesn't belong to him is his devil's real name.
I have to say that the devil is indeed a very knowledgeable existence.
When Gavin was weak, even if he endured the torture of bathing in holy water, he was unwilling to hand over his true name as a devil, and was eventually forced to be restrained.
Now before he could open his mouth, he took the initiative to hand it over.
The reason for this is because Gavin is strong enough and shows terrifying potential, even those slightly weaker demon lords can't compare to him, and following the strong is the instinct of all devils.
"If you had chosen to do this in the first place, you wouldn't have to worry about it a long time ago." Gavin was satisfied with the real name of the dog devil, if he didn't control these inherently evil existences 100%, how could he rest assured that he could cultivate.
"It's my short-sightedness." The dog demon smiled and said, "I believe it's not too late." ”
"Perform the task with peace of mind, I believe that your character is very clear, meritorious deeds will be rewarded, and mistakes will be punished." Gavin gives a promise that is not a promise, and is a formal recognition of the Inudemon as his subordinate, not as a slave.
"Yes." For the dog demon, having this sentence is enough.
"Ali Hashan, in this task, the two of you cooperate with each other, with Andrew as the main and you as the auxiliary." Gavin summoned the spirit Naga and asked them to carry out the mission together, while setting their priorities, otherwise they would spend a large part of their energy on intrigue with each other, which is the flaw of this group of evil people.
It is often difficult to achieve the effect that one plus one is greater than two, and it is good to be able to play a point of five.
After releasing his canine snake, Gavin and Janella discussed the matter of dealing with the granary fire.
After guessing about the cause and effect, things have become much simpler.
They used the same journey to the other world again, entered the granary and inspected it, and sure enough, they found a large amount of grain replaced with earth and stone, and only the outer layer was real grain.
Even if they are allowed to burn, they won't last long.
Gavin and the others decided to block the door in sections to extinguish the fire, first blocking most of the passage in the back mountain so that there is no more air intake here, and then gradually blocking the main gate little by little, completely suffocating the fire in the warehouse.
It was later estimated that the middle warehouse of the Golden Wheat Bale Monastery had a total of 3,200 tons of grain, and about 500 tons were barely preserved, thanks to the large number of fireproof layers and branch passages.
There are more than 200 tons of over-fire grain, and people will definitely not be able to eat it, but there is no problem in feeding the livestock.
Fifteen hundred tons of grain were stolen, and only 1,000 tons were actually burned.
With the help of corresponding spells such as prophecy spells and identification spells, the identity of the charred corpse has also been determined, that is, the manager of the middle granary, he plays an irreplaceable role in this matter, whether he is willing to fall or is manipulated, there is no way to confirm.
For the sake of safety, the monks of the Golden Wheat Bale Monastery, inside and out, were examined, especially the remaining things The management of the two granaries was the focus, and no doubts were found.
The enemy chose the middle granary as a target, not because it was the largest granary in the Golden Wheat Bale Monastery, but because they carried it out from the other side of the mountain, which was characterized by stealth.
The east and west warehouses are located on the ridge of the hill and are not covered enough, making it difficult to steal for a long time.
The choice of the other party to set fire to the granary, and the imminent arrival of the army of conquerors led by Gavin is an incentive that cannot be ignored.
Because once they open a warehouse to transport grain on a large scale, their grain stealing behavior will be exposed.
Fifteen hundred tons of grain is not a small amount, especially when it is transported to the Thundering Peak Mountain Range, even if it is an ordinary person who does not have the ability to track it, it is not difficult to find their traces, let alone a dog demon who is good at this, and it is easy to lock on to the target.
All the way to a place called Yougu Village, an armed village located not far from the foot of the Thundering Peak, has become a ruin, all seven or eight hundred villagers are missing, and all signs point to a deep mine not far from the village.
This is not a mine, but a passage to the Shadows.
In this dark area, a newly opened tunnel by the Digging Purple Worm appeared, directly crossing the entire Thundering Peak Mountain Range, and appeared in the deepest part of the Thundering Peak Mountain Range.
Thundering Peak is best known for the Storm of Destruction that envelops here.
Due to the topography, a natural megaphone has been formed, and whenever the thunder explodes on the Thundering Peak, most of the mountain range reverberates with terrifying sounds.
The thunder is often accompanied by avalanches large and small.
When the terrifying snow masses tumble down the steep peaks, you can feel the terrifying power even from a long distance.
Therefore, the black castle on the snow line is very conspicuous and can be seen from a long distance.
When you look at it from a distance, the black castle is very inconspicuous, just like a child's toy, but when you get closer, you find that it is extremely grand, with a huge gate ten meters high, a hall ten meters high, and a super-large, inlaid with gems at the end of the iron throne.
On it sat a man with pale white skin and short blue hair, who looked like a jewel model in the exhibition hall, with an agate necklace around his neck, a huge adamantite armband on his right arm, which was inlaid with various colorful gemstones, and on his left hand was a bracelet made of precious stones, and on his ten fingers, he wore rings or wrenches carved from jewelry.
The wide belt around the waist is also a display table for gemstones, diamonds, crystals, agate, rubies, black jade, pearls, etc., they are not randomly inlaid, and they emit a powerful magical aura, showing that it is a unique magical item.
In fact, every piece of equipment on his body shimmered with a magical aura.
It wasn't until he took the ingredients from the bowls and plates brought by the attendant next to him that he really showed his difference.
The dishes that were brought to him were not brought by one person, but by two ogres.
These behemoths, with an average height of more than three and a half meters, were not even up to the armrests of this throne, and the man on the throne reached out and lifted the whole roasted whole cow from the plate, like an adult carrying a roast suckling pig, and gnawed it - except that he was not carrying a calf, but a fat, full-grown bull weighing two or three tons.
This is a giant, a cloud giant with an extremely high order, his height is outstanding even among giants, adult males generally start at eight meters, second only to the royal storm giant among giants.
They are called cloud giants not because of their terrifying height, but because of their innate ability to manipulate the weather, they can direct storms, manipulate the direction of the wind, change into fog out of thin air, or create tumbling clouds out of thin air, and they can even solidify clouds and carve out their own clouds on top of them.
There is a legend of the magic pea that is widely spread among the intelligent races, and when the magic bean is planted, it will grow towering vines that can climb up to the clouds, and there is a huge golden fortress where grapes are as big as apples, apples are as big as pumpkins, and pumpkins are as big as horse-drawn carriages.
A white goose taller than a bull that lays golden eggs, and where a hospitable giant lives, if you tell him about the interesting things on the ground, he will give you a huge golden goose egg as a gift when you leave.
This legendary giant generally refers to the cloud giant.
It is precisely because of this legend that the reputation of the cloud giant for hospitality has been left in the hearts of many people.
Actually, this is misleading, because only those who have come across the kind and hospitable Cloud Giant have survived, and those who have encountered the evil Cloud Giant have either become his appetizers or become his new minions, the cornerstone of his empire.
"I wonder if Your Majesty is still satisfied with this gift of mine?" The one who spoke was a female drow elf, she was taller and plump than ordinary drow elves, her skin was like the finest black jade, a large section was naked, like a cloud giant on the throne, and her body was also full of dazzling jewels, making her look extravagant.
There is a bewitching charm exclusive to the drow elves, not the kind of naked words or eyes teasing, but integrated into the gestures, words and deeds, gently raising the arm to close the hair hanging down to the forehead, so that the chest is turbulent, there is an illusion that the small cloth wrapped around them, forced to burst.
Unintentionally changing his posture, he let the legs under the tulle loom out, drawing the person's gaze to the deepest depths, and he can no longer pull it out.
If she was standing here naked, the temptation would not be so great, the gaze that lingered on her was proof, she could even clearly hear the swallowing sound of saliva, if it weren't for the fear of the domineering cloud giant emperor who was high above, they would have rushed up and devoured her alive.
Even the cloud giant seemed to have stopped eating, and set his eyes on the ant-like woman.
This person was none other than the vengeful high priestess of the immortal goddess of vengeance, Delilah, and being killed once by Gavin was not entirely bad for her.
First of all, it made her clearly aware of the difference in strength between the two, that blasphemer had grown up by merging the power he had taken from the Immortal Nemesis, and had recently become the chosen person of the Lady of Strategy, and it was difficult for her to fight against her alone, so she had to find foreign help and use her strength to fight.
As Gavin had speculated, the greedy nature of the Drow Priestess, who tried to keep everything under her control, determined that she would not choose to cooperate with the Santarim Society and the Sambian Merchant, but rather the monstrous forces of the Thundering Peaks Mountains, the Cloud Giant Monarch in front of her.
Secondly, the complete resurrection technique restored her body to its peak state, and before her body was affected by the erosion of negative energy, although doing so would weaken her ability to manipulate necromancy, it allowed her to restore another drow elf's other lethal weapon, beauty charm.
The reaction of these monsters around them is a testimony to this weapon.
"This gift of yours is indeed full of sincerity." The 1,200 tons of grain brought by the other party, the cloud giant, who was as high as a king, cast a little attention to these ant-like existences in front of him, "What kind of reward do you want to get?" ”
"If I can serve Your Majesty closely, it will be the greatest reward for me." Delilah replied humbly.
"Enough food for three months for an army of 10,000 people, just in exchange for the opportunity to serve in close quarters, haha......" The cloud giant couldn't help but look at the drow elf in front of him again, which was like a beautiful toy, "Since your desire is so strong, I will grant it." ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for the favor." Delilah bowed down again and thanked her, and walked towards the cloud giant with extremely graceful steps.
With each step she took, her body would grow a little bigger, and by the time she walked to the cloud giant, her body had quadrupled, reaching about six meters, and the jewels on her body were also not ordinary, and they grew larger with her body.
They were clearly carefully selected, matching the skin of the Drow Elf Inkjade, her skin more inky and her jewels radiating more brightly.
