Approaching the smoky city, Lan Nuo was a little surprised to find that no one stopped him at all. Although the city's checkpoints were guarded by demons, seeing Lan Nuo's purple-black skin, he let him go without even thinking.
.
After entering the city, what Lan Nuo saw was a strange scene of prosperity and depression coexisting. This small city was not an important town in the seventh plane, but the urban planning here was quite good. The streets were wide and both sides of the street were
On the side, there are magic street lamps lit by evil flames, and there are beasts of burden pulling various vehicles, shuttling through the streets, transporting various goods. At the same time, things like sewer manhole covers can be seen on the road.
Can be used to discharge sewage.
There are also some pipelines buried underground, which seem to be used to transport magic power. In terms of infrastructure construction, this city has done quite well. I have to say that the foundation left by Yizhaks back then is quite solid.
If there were no interference from external forces in this world, Theraton would probably become the most powerful demon king in the future if he inherited this inheritance.
However, a strong foundation does not mean that the city is running healthily. Lan Nuo can clearly feel the depression of the city.
Although the city is well planned, good urban planning also needs someone to maintain it. Nowadays, feces and garbage can be seen everywhere on the clean streets. There are people with collars around their necks who are forced to clean up these feces and garbage.
, but they are all listless. As long as they supervise the work, they will become lazy if they are not careful.
Snap! The whip hit a human with a collar, causing him to scream. The person holding the whip was a low-level Chaos Demon. He cursed in the language of the devil: "Idiot! Get up and work!"
Lan Nuo frowned when he saw this scene. Judging from his accent, the Chaos Demon with the whip did not originally belong to the seventh plane.
Because the demons living in the seventh plane have lived together with humans and other races for a long time, both the language and accent have been affected. Although the official language is still the language of demons, both the grammar and vocabulary have been mixed with many other races.
The language has a tendency to evolve into a completely new language.
And what the Chaos Demon spoke was pure devilish language. It is not difficult to understand. After occupying and ruling a new territory, he must send his own people there to take over the rule. It is impossible for the original people to still maintain the original rule.
There is a system of governance.
The human being who was whipped cursed and picked up the tools and continued to clean the streets.
After seeing this scene, Lan Nuo started a rehearsal and repeatedly observed the scene just now. The purpose was to observe everyone's reaction to the incident that just happened.
The Chaos Demon holding the weapon has always shown arrogance, and has a look of contempt for other races such as humans, elves, and spirits.
As for those races who wear collars and are forced to work, their eyes reveal resentment, sympathy, and some fear.
What is strange is that when some of the demons without collars saw this scene, their eyes showed intolerance and sympathy.
This is more interesting. Obviously they are the same demons, but different demons are also very different.
After Lan Nuo observed the details of this scene, he continued to move forward seemingly aimlessly in the city, but in fact he was walking in the direction of several factories.
Along the way, he saw that except for demons, almost all other races wore collars around their necks. After asking the demons on the roadside during the rehearsal, he learned that the function of these collars was to prevent these races from escaping. As long as they left this place
Within the city limits, the collars would immediately tighten and strangle their necks so tightly that they would be unable to breathe. If they did not return immediately, they would be strangled to death.
In this city, except for demons, all other races are slaves. This is also the norm in other demon worlds.
Even in other demon worlds, slaves of other races like this are rare. Because it won't be long before these slaves will be turned into rations and eaten.
The biggest reason why these races have not been eaten here is because the factories here cannot lack these intelligent races if they want to maintain operation.
Compared with demons, humans, elves, and elves, the average IQ is higher. Therefore, most of the senior engineers in this city are actually these people. If they are really killed, the factories here will not be able to continue to operate.
, it would be impossible to provide Theraton with an endless supply of advanced weapons.
Therefore, although these foreign races have been demoted as slaves, they at least still have the right to survive. Judging from the situation in this city, most cities in the seventh demon plane should be in a similar state, and there are still a large number of foreign races.
Survive here.
The closer you get to the factory, the more different races there are. According to visual estimates, demons only account for at most 30% of the people in this city, and the rest are all slaves of other races.
In the preview, Lan Nuo sneaked into the factory and later discovered that the work efficiency of the workers here was extremely low. Although there were supervisors around them to monitor their work, it was difficult for the supervisors' IQ to tell whether they were slacking off, even if they could calculate
The number of products they produce can be used to judge whether they are lazy, and there is no way to judge whether they have followed regulations and standardized every step in the production process.
These devils who don't understand anything have no idea whether the workers in front of them are working seriously or are just casually measuring data, and don't care whether the products produced are qualified?
After all, Theraton is a traditional devil. He is very different from Yzaks. With their social system, the operation of the factory will not last long. When these skilled workers die, they will get old. These factories
It will be completely abandoned. By then, no one will know how to start these devices. They will all become black technologies left over from ancient times.
Lan Nuo's stealth skills, even without borrowing any extraordinary power, can be like in Assassin's Creed. He can walk in the blind spot of everyone's sight and walk into a heavily guarded place openly. Therefore, after sneaking into the factory, there is no
People noticed him.
When the factory closed, these workers were driven into their dormitories, or cells.
Lan Nuo also followed them and sneaked in. No one was watching the slaves here, and they finally dared to say something true.
"This life is really unbearable. When the king was still there, how could any demon dare to do this to us? At that time, the demon warlord greeted us when he saw us. Now even a chaos demon dares to whip me.
Do any of you still have medicine on you? Maya has been having a fever these days. I heard that the pharmaceutical factory now only produces medicine that is useful for demons. Does anyone know? There is also ointment for elves hidden on you. I am afraid that she will suffer from it.
It’s not going to go away.” The one who spoke was an Eldar with blue skin and a long tail like a giant dragon. As one of the most skilled races, this person was the top leader in the factory back then, but now he is
He was collared and locked up in this prison.
"I still have a little more, but this is the last medicine. The civet has also started to cough. The air purification system in the city has not been turned on since the group of airborne demons came here. We really don't know if this continues.
How long can we hold on?" Another elf couldn't help but sigh. Among the many races, elves are the first to be unable to hold on. Although their lifespan and physical fitness are stronger than humans, they have higher requirements for the natural environment, and their mental abilities are relatively weak.
They are also more vulnerable to humans. Yzaks once conducted a social experiment. After investigating the psychological state of the volunteers, he found that elves are more likely to suffer from various mental illnesses, especially in unsuitable living environments.
This is especially true under certain circumstances. In addition, the respiratory system of elves is also more fragile than that of humans.
Most of the city's air purification systems are prepared for their race. However, the demon chiefs who came by air will not care about these things. They only like the air mixed with the smell of sulfur. They only care about the humid air brought by the air purification system.
I felt so stuffy that I asked someone to turn off the device without even thinking about it.
The Eldar technician looked outside the bars and whispered: "Please bear with it a little longer. Someone will secretly deliver medicine to us tonight. We must survive first before we have any hope."
As soon as they finished speaking, the iron fence behind them was knocked twice lightly at the iron window. Suddenly they turned around and saw a Chaos Demon wearing black night clothes lying quietly on the ground.
A package was thrust into the window.
"These are the medicines I collected that are suitable for all races. The pharmaceutical factory has stopped producing them, and I really can't find any more. I and other demons suggested opening the pharmaceutical factory, otherwise you will die of illness, but they said,
After you die, all you need to do is capture more people and bring in more supplies. I can't convince them at all."
It can be seen that the Chaos Demons who are in contact with more intelligent creatures are much smarter than those who have been airborne and have lived among demons since childhood.
Lan Nuo thought thoughtfully, and it was easy to tell just from his temperament that this aborigine was probably from the reign of Yzaks, and he had long been accustomed to living an equal life with other races.
"Thank you. It's great to have these medicines. You should also pay attention to safety. If someone discovers that you secretly deliver medicines to us, I'm afraid you will be implicated. How is the situation over there?" the Eldar technician answered.
When I passed the pack of medicine, different races were thoughtfully marked on it.
"We demons are actually okay. Demons respect strength. When the king was still there, he said that those of us who can't learn well should at least exercise hard. Every day physical training drills us to death. We are of the same race.
, we can defeat other demons one at a time and three with no problem, so basically no demons are bullied.
However... Neva was punished not long ago for fighting against other races. He was hung at the city gate and exposed to the sun for three days and three nights. I don't know if he can recover. The devils in the city who dare to fight against you are now in the same situation.
None of them are very good.
Sigh...why don't the other demons understand that the operation of this city cannot be separated from you. There are many things that require brains, let alone them. Even if my brain is much better than theirs, I can't do it well.
It was better when the king was around, even if the Holy See allied forces came over. After the crusade against the king, he just huddled in the corner of the Obsidian Plain, not daring to move. His courage to challenge the king before was lost to them.
Where have you gone?"
A human in the prison shook his head: "You are thinking too well. If the Holy See coalition forces come over, your fate will definitely be worse than ours now. At least you will be here to help us. If you fall,
In the hands of the madmen of the Holy See Alliance, let alone demons, even us humans who live with demons will be treated as heretics and burned at the stake.
Don't think that we humans are really civilized just because we look civilized. When faced with heretics, we are much more cruel than demons."
The Chaos Demon lying at the window stuck out his tongue and shrank his neck in fear: "Stop talking, you don't know. I have been timid since I was a child. If you really can't stand it, you can run away."
, there must be a vise in the factory that can cut your collars, why not sneak out and cut them off before the collars strangle you?"
"Alas...it's not that simple?" The human who just spoke sighed. He seemed to be one of the leaders of this group of workers.
"Do you think we haven't planned it? But what can we do if we escape? No other race can survive on the Obsidian Plain except demons. Even humans, who have the strongest survival ability except demons, can't survive without tools.
It is difficult to survive in such a harsh environment without enough food, let alone the elves and elves who are even less adaptable.
They left the city's water supply and couldn't survive for even three days. If the king hadn't built the city next to the river, how could we have survived in the demon plane?"
Lan Nuo, who had been hiding in the corner watching this scene, silently wrote down everything that happened in front of him. If the stars and the sea are too ethereal and too far for these people in front of him, then races can coexist peacefully and everyone in the world is equal.
The goal seems to be more realistic.
Lan Nuo was sure that as long as he gave this group of people a plan that was detailed enough to have a chance of success, he would definitely be able to get a hundred responses and make this group of people rise up and resist the brutal rule of the alien demons.
It was by no means unreasonable for Yizhak to be able to lay such a foundation in the first place. Under the current ruling model where demons are superior to humans, those demons who are aboriginal people still sympathize with other races. It cannot be seen that Yizhak was
How solid was the basic foundation during Sri Lanka's rule? If the current situation in other cities is the same, then Lanno already knows how to fight the next war.
