Chapter 899: I'm Ready, Too
- The footsteps sounded so slow, yet so heavy, because everyone was backing away at the same time, and the sound of that step was like thunder!
They had to retreat.
Because at the moment when the female knight raised her head, the coercion of thousands of armies and horses, like a mountain and a tsunami, had already spread to all sides! Completely enveloping them, this coercion was so intense, like a sharp knife straight across everyone's throat. Not only can it be felt on the skin, but it is even intense, so real that it can be heard by the ears and smelled by the nose. Every muscle trembles in it, and the strength is consumed without a trace!
"You'll get it, but that's just what they want you to get. Once the contract is complete, you will rely on their power to share more secrets with them and give them more power, but the contract between you will also allow you to be unknowingly influenced and manipulated by them!
The female knight's voice was not high, but every word was sent to everyone's ears with great clarity, making them look at each other.
To the soldiers, this may seem strange, but the hundreds of mages obviously don't think it's alarmist.
Manipulated?
Is this possible?
Truly...... If you want to restrain a demon, the contract you use is naturally extremely tight, and most importantly, it's important. In order to prevent the slave from one day rebelling against his master, the contract must have some connection with the contractor himself. Otherwise, it will not be possible to give instructions quickly, and once there is a connection, it means that a spiritual channel is added to one's body.
However, this is really unlikely.
"Why is this demon's portal here?"
Yes, why is this portal so close to Romante?Do demons not consider human reactions?If this is not something that was intended to be sent, why would they get it so lightly?
The female knight's question was brief, but this short question instantly led to more questions in everyone's minds.
own actions this time. Is it really correct?
And once a doubt arises, it is like the water that bursts the embankment, and it is difficult to contain.
"Oops, oops, that's terrible. Speculation alone saw through my intentions. 'Amberina' began.
To be precise, the voice came from his shadow...... A dark glow peeked out of the darkness. With a slight shake, he became a tall figure: "However, why do you have to expose it? If I remember correctly, these guys don't have a very good relationship with your master?"
The deep dark shadow was gradually rendered by the luster, and soon it took on the appearance of a handsome man. He looked at the person in front of him with a smile, as if he was interested in her
"My master said that you are a very good person, and if you don't want to show up, just find something to make you suffer. You're going to run out of the way. The knightess replied.
From the beginning, her response was cold and serious. With some strange feelings, it is obvious that he does not understand the meaning of some of the words in dialogue and cooperation at all: "But he said, you should know that the so-called division is beneficial to both evils, and mutual assistance and mutual benefit are beneficial. ”
"That master of yours never really seemed to work with me. ”
The handsome man sighed, and his voice was complaining: "Now almost everyone knows that his cooperation has always been just to take advantage of himself, which makes me suffer...... And now, do you think there's anything else I need to work with him? Is there anything else I can be interested in?"
He stepped out of the shadow of the mage and took a few steps forward, the shadow pulling long traces behind him, sucking into his body like water waves, but a faint smell of sulfur also came out of it, causing several exclamations from the group of mages above his head.
"This guy is a demon!"
"Catch him! No, kill him!"
There were only a few exclamations.
The purpose of this trip is to keep it secret from the city guards, but the mages are well prepared, most of the more than 300 mages are transferred from the academy, and they basically have the level of high-level mages, and the ability to touch the magic net above the five rings...... The moment those shouts rang out, a dozen pale, bright red, or gray-green rays streaked across the sky, interweaving colorful light and fire around the demon's body!
It was a blast of red light, a ray of sunfire, a dissociation technique, a death ray, a law of intimidation/death/blindness, and in an instant, the magic that burst towards that handsome figure was almost fifty times! The gathered power was enough to melt a piece of pure essence into juice, or shatter it into dust, and at the same time, it would also seal off the surrounding space and remove any protective spells.
But unfortunately, Grazt, the lord of the dark dark, is not a piece of pure gold...... Even if all the pure gold in the entire multiverse is piled up, it can't be compared to this archdemon.
Violent forces collide with each other in an instant. The storm of friction, squeezing, and energy hedge rolled up the dust around it, enveloping the figure in a clump! Once again, there seemed to be an eerie silence in the space, and the mages held their breath as the flickering light faded out.
In the time of a breath, the dust had been blown by the storm, revealing the figure of the intact man within—Grazt didn't even change his movements, as if the magical power that was enough to shatter and destroy Miè's dragons had vanished out of thin air around him, and the storm of energy had no other use than to whip up some dust, not even the ground where the other party was standing.
Shi Shiran turned his head, as if those things were just a flash of light and a breeze passing in front of him, and the dark lord's gaze stayed in front of His Excellency the deputy mentor slightly, but the latter's facial features twitched slightly. But she didn't say anything - a demon suddenly appeared in her shadow, and the fact is difficult to explain no matter how you look at it. If she made another move to defend the latter, her charge of 'colluding with demons' would be absolutely confirmed, so Ampolina could only remain silent until the luster of magic was sure to be invalid.
"Demon, although I don't know exactly how you got here, your strength is not worth mentioning in the face of the superiority of our three hundred mages. No matter what kind of machinations you and your accomplices have, you won't be able to escape!" she took a deep breath and shouted in a raised voice......
It seems to be righteous and awe-inspiring. But from another point of view, in fact, the straightforward meaning of this sentence is second only to saying "you are leaving".
Grazt, however, had no desire to move a little finger.
He shook his head slightly, and the shadows on the ground condensed like substance, becoming a black seat supporting his body. Let him sit on it in a comfortable position, his hands folded in front of his abdomen, twelve fingers lightly tapping the backs of his hands, the posture was relaxed, as if the army of hundreds of mages and thousands of warriors around him was nothing more than a clumsy illusion, and his eyes wandered. Re-eyed the red eyes of the female knight—"So, what does he have to offer?" he asked.
He said that he could give you a way to stabilize your soul and control your soul. It can be used to control most of the soul. ”
The Dark Lord was silent for a moment.
"Very attractive. He said.
Souls, the greatest and most ingenious creations in the multiverse. It is also the driving force behind many existences in this universe, the belief in God. The human spirit, the essence of the devil...... Souls and countless forces in the universe form a myriad of strange beings, so storing their soul gems is a high-level currency that can be used in both hell and abyss. And the bloody battle that claims to affect all the existential beings of the entire multiverse and never stops can only be sustained by relying on the huge number of souls sent by the River Styx.
However, this fabled battle, which has been fought since the beginning of the universe, has never been evenly matched—there are only nine levels of hell, and the abyss has countless earthly levels. Therefore, in terms of numbers, the demons are far superior to the devils, and the individual combat effectiveness is slightly superior. However, the demons have never really had a huge advantage in the days of 10,000 years, and the reason for destroying the demons is because of the bloody battle, a large-scale battle that has invested more than a million troops. The strength of an individual is really nothing, what really matters is the ability to judge and plan, and the smoothness of military orders. However, demons are naturally chaotic and rebellious, and have never been organized or disciplined, let alone have a perfect logistics supply system. In contrast to the devil, who is strictly disciplined and has a clear division of labor, there is the gap between the rabble and the professional army.
Even with a wise leader like Grazt, a disorganized demon will twist a tactic in a myriad of ways, and then make all sorts of unbelievable mistakes on the battlefield, eventually throwing the battle out of control. Only by filling in cannon fodder with extreme lack of technical content can the demon side not lose in the bloody battle, and even suppress the devil for most of the time.
However, this advantage has now gradually slipped away from the demon's hands.
I don't know when the devils began to wander the world, using the contracts in their hands to tempt, and often obtained some outstanding souls with outstanding abilities, which were brought directly back to hell and transformed into the most elite warriors, while the demons were still waiting for the never-ending wind of the Styx to bring them new food and subordinates, but rarely took the initiative to collect. So slowly, the gap began to be revealed, the devil's army became more and more elite, while the demon side became more and more embarrassed, if it weren't for the fact that the battlefield of the first layer of the abyss was also indirectly under the jurisdiction of Grazt, the situation would have been even worse.
The fallen souls who enter the abyss are the first industry in this chaotic and evil land. Without enough fallen souls as a foundation, any ambition for hegemony is empty talk...... This is Grazt's personal experience, the pain of the skin. It is also the reason why he now came to the world immediately after seizing the opportunity, and he did not hesitate to spend blood to establish several forward bases.
But the way to control the soul?
Grazt would never have believed anyone else, even a god, if he had said such a thing, but the person standing behind the female knight could no longer be considered someone else, not even a person......
"What do you want?"
"Kill them!"
Ampolina roared suddenly.
The conversation between the female knight and the archdemon lasted only a few breaths, but for a sufficiently skilled mage. A breath of time was enough to do a lot - Amberina's seemingly plump body flickered in the air and vanished, and by the time she reappeared, she was standing hundreds of feet in the sky.
Gritted his teeth. With a flick of his hand, the assistant tutor pulled out a scroll from his sleeve.
The scroll was very small, only as long as one finger and as thick as two fingers, and had a swarthy surface, with no value other than a beautiful yellow crystal ring around it...... But as she held it, Amberina's fingers trembled slightly. She gritted her teeth so viciously that the tattoos on half of her face were shaking!
Something in the air tightened violently.
It was as if a kind of network that had covered the world had suddenly encircled it, and the gentle cold of Tumenis winter had suddenly intensified at this time! The wind swept the snowflakes and shredded them into a hazy snow mist, and in the snow mist, the lines of the magic net that had been imperceptible were unexpectedly clear. They shook and connected the bodies of one mage after another, and the luster of their magic lit them up at the same time, making them burn like fire men!
And the scroll in Ampollina's hands. It was turning into ashes in a golden flame, and the ashes were scattered, and at this moment, the line of law constructed a huge ** array with a radius of more than 1,000 feet out of thin air, and every node on this circle was maintained by the body of a mage!
It's just a short period of time. Amberina's absolute magic is enough to rival Albert's ** division, and even surpass it!
Of course, in fact, she can call on more than that. The Ring Ritual is equivalent to merging the power of the mages in the Ring of All Spells, their spells. Their spirit, the scroll, could not have replaced the real Tour of France ceremony, but at this moment, the power he gathered was enough to move Grazt!
The Great Demon opened his mouth slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say it.
Because he saw a flame.
It was a bright red glow, faint, only the size of a light, swaying, insignificant. And yet it was so unsightly—it burned in the core of that golden light, and in Ampolina's shield, the sub-mentor's gaze slowly jumped in the corner.
Ampolina didn't see the light at all, she was basking in the pleasure of being inextricably controlled, and the magic that frantically surged at her was compiled into an indescribable mass of energy, which could destroy the world in the next instant!
But the next moment, it will never come—
"I'm sorry to kill your men. ”
"It doesn't matter. The smile of the dark lord was still bright: "Actually, she is not my subordinate, just a conspirator, what she wants to do now, I can't interfere, and compared to you, she is insignificant at all, whether it is strength or the benefits it brings to me, it is too bad, and even this can not see this fool and still struggle, what is the point of me keeping her? Although it is easier for this kind of guy to seduce, it is very difficult to be useful." It's better to vacate a place for someone who can afford it when you die. ”
As we all know, the devil and the demon are both evil monsters, and are even collectively called 'evil demons', but there is a fundamental opposition between them: the devil pays attention to hierarchy, order and contract, and the society is orderly, while the devil is the product of chaos, and they want to break the rules in addition to violent and savage killing. Not bound by any rules, not interested in other things.
Some scholars believe that hell represents order, while the abyss is the embodiment of chaos and chaos.
It is difficult to make direct deals with the fallen people of the world. Therefore, there are only three main ways for them to obtain souls: first, they rely on the heavens to eat and wait for the winds of the Styx to send their fallen souls to their doors, second, soldiers enter the main material plane and slash and kill them, and third, they harvest sacrifices in bloody and filthy rituals through the cults that worship demons in the human world.
The first path has proven to be increasingly unsustainable. As for the second way, which is to rush to the surface to play the three-light policy, it seems to be very straightforward and clear, and it is also very much in line with the tyrannical and impulsive nature of the demons.
It's not just a matter of nature, it's that it's impossible for demons to define this kind of contract between the two parties, and even if they want to sign something, it won't be something equal, at most, they will control their souls in the hands of the other party
"I don't know, I don't have any interest in getting involved with you, the Empire alone is enough for me to keep things busy. The Great Demon shook his head: "However, some old friends want me to help, so I just make do with it, and it doesn't hurt anyway,"
"Which old friends?"
"Well...... Ah, you don't need to tell me, you basically know, don't you, it's Mishra and Rose?"
Edward's brow furrowed.
Should it be said that this guy really deserves to be a big demon? This method of betraying his teammates is simply a strange way to the point of madness!
