Volume 5 Eternal Bloody Battle Chapter 442 The Informant
These mercenaries are like vultures eating carrion. They will be there wherever there is fighting. Elos pays and the mercenaries work hard. It is a simple and stable contract.
Of course, the most numerous ones are the weak devils in hell. As the devils living under the rule of Iloth, most of them were mobilized by him to join the battle this time.
These devils are led by the little devil Mare. If they encounter a strong enemy, these weak devils who have not received strict training will be the first to be sent to the battlefield as cannon fodder to consume the enemy's physical strength.
And if the enemy is very vulnerable, then the task assigned to them is to complete the subsequent reception work after the main army has passed.

When the enemy appeared in Murphy's eyes, he almost turned around and ran away.
Murphy is a chain demon. His mission is to lead hundreds of other chain demons and thousands of little devils to guard Iron Barrel City. All Murphy needs to do is to guard against the demons wandering in the wilderness and the merchants passing by.
The team just collects money.
Murphy's life is very regular. Every day when the sunset climbs up, he will stagger to the top of the city wall and wander around.
It's not that Murphy was loyal to his duties, he wasn't patrolling, the chain demon was just dangling around.
Others may not know it clearly, but Murphy himself knows that he doesn't like dangling around at all, but if you don't dawdle around, you really can't find anything else to do.
If there were caravans passing by here a few years ago, Murphy would still be able to find some fun in the passing caravans.
But since the war between the devil dog and the devil king, this city has completely lost its function. All trade routes have been blocked by Mostema. No caravans have passed through it for a long time, even those who occasionally appear in the wilderness.
All the evil demons above have also disappeared.
Nowadays, the battle is fierce on the front line. It is said that this battle is more fierce than the bloody battle with the devil. Both the devil dog and Lord Mostima have reached the end of the road. Among the two,
One side will surely fall.
The Iron Barrel City where Murphy is located belongs to the Demon Dog Nergal, so Murphy hopes that the Demon Dog can win.
But no matter how fierce the fighting ahead was, it couldn't change Murphy's leisurely pace on the city wall, because he had done almost everything he could do.

Almost all the people who could be taken away from Iron Barrel City were taken away, those who could fight but could not, the healthy and sick, the slaves in the mines, the servants in the castle, the dead in the tombs, and even the dungeons.
Among them, all the demon prisoners were brought to the battlefield by the city lord of Iron Barrel City.
But no matter how the city lord assembles his troops, he will still have to leave a group of people to defend the city.
But Murphy now feels that this is a very stupid decision. What can be done by leaving so few people behind?
The cowardly little devils and lemures have no effect. If there is no supervising team standing behind the group of trash, they can't even consume the enemy's physical strength.
The only ones who can fight are Murphy's direct troops. More than a hundred chain demons seem to be quite a battle force, but what does a hundred chain demons mean to an enemy who dares to attack the city?
Then he looked at himself and the bodies of these chain demons. Thinking of this, Murphy saw the iron chains wrapped around his body. At this time, he felt extremely frustrated.
The chains on all the chain demons, including Murphy, are extremely rusty. The fragile chains can break by themselves and fly out when waved. The direction in which they fly depends entirely on luck.
Even if you were lucky that the chain didn't break by itself, it would have no effect if you hit the enemy accurately after swinging it. The chain had already become as soft and weak as French fries, and all the barbs on the chain had fallen off.
But can you blame me?
Murphy was wandering around on the city wall a little depressed. None of the brothers had changed their equipment for hundreds of years. A sword that had been left in the warehouse for a hundred years without being used would be the same thing when it was taken out.
It became unusable, let alone the chains that were used every day.

The Chain Demon's whole body is wrapped in iron chains. The iron chains on their bodies are not only the Chain Demon's clothes, but also their pants. It is also their weapon to attack the enemy, and it can also be used to climb.
The iron chains on the Chain Demon have so many uses. For the Chain Demon, they use the iron chains on them almost all the time. Logically speaking, the scrap rate of these iron chains should be extremely high, but it may be the special ability of the Chain Demon.
, the iron chains on their bodies are extremely strong, and the damage rate is extremely low.
Generally speaking, it is not a problem for the chain on a chain demon to last for more than fifty years. If you pay attention to maintenance on daily basis, it can last for more than ten years.
But no matter what, the iron chain that had not been replaced for more than a hundred years had already reached the end of its lifespan, and the reason why the chain on his body could not be replaced was even more weird. Murphy became angry when he thought about it.
As early as fifty years ago, Murphy sent an application to the clothing department of the logistics department of his master, the demon dog Nergal, to apply for a replacement of the chains on his body.
Then he spent almost a year filling out countless forms, visiting seventy or eighty departments, getting countless official seals, eating and drinking hundreds of banquets, and finally delivered the application to the manager of the clothing department with his own hands.
But the bastard in charge of the clothing department just glanced at it and rejected the application. The reason was actually:
"Your chains are weapons, not clothing, so they are not under our control. Besides, where in our clothing department can we make chain clothing? What? You said we do produce chain clothing? Damn, that big mouth told you. Okay.
Well, we do produce chain suits, but you can't wear them."
Murphy still remembered the appearance of the chain suit that the steward took out. It was a piece of clothing made of shiny and delicate iron rings, and the materials were cut to the extreme.
Not to mention that the chains were extremely thin, and there were only dozens of small chains. The density could no longer be described as sparse. Wearing such chains was like not wearing any at all. Murphy didn't say anything at the time.
This thing really cannot be worn.

"If you can't wear something, then why do you produce it?"
"I just prepared it for you." The manager of the clothing department looked impatient:
"Some upper-level devils like this style. They already have rabbit ears, maids, bandages, and black leather clothes. This chain is just a novelty. I occasionally take it out to put on those things. I saw these two small rings.
Is it? This is called a sophisticated design. After putting it on... forget it, you won't understand even if I tell you. Anyway, I don't care about replacing your chain here, you can go to the weapons department."
Murphy didn't think much about it. He couldn't use that thing anyway, so he went to the weapons department.
Not surprisingly, it was another long process. I filled out countless forms, visited seventy or eighty departments, applied for countless official seals, ate and drank hundreds of banquets, and finally the application was handed over to the director of the Arms Department.
.
"The iron chains are in charge of the Special Materials Department. We are the weapons department here. We have knives, guns, swords, and hammers, but there are no iron chains. You have to go to the Special Materials Department for this matter."
Finally, we met the manager of the Special Materials Department. As expected, the manager of the Special Materials Department said, "Go find the City Defense Engineering Department."
Finally, I met the City Defense Engineering Department. This time, their management attitude was quite good, but their words did not change much:
"Well, this chain issue is not our responsibility. You can ask the clothing department. What, you have asked the clothing department, but the clothing department doesn't care? Then there is nothing we can do. After all, the thing you are wearing is not city defense at all.
Is it something in the system? Oops, why are you getting excited while talking, stop, stop swinging the chain, it will be bad for anyone you hit, calm down, calm down quickly. You have something to talk about! I said
Why are you so excited? Well, I’ll find someone to hold a meeting to discuss it, and I’ll let you know when I have news.”
Fifty years have passed since this meeting was held, and there is still no news.
