Slowly withdrawing his magic power, the dark cold air around him also dissipated.
When Roy was about to collect the soul of the slain demon into his bag, suddenly, the water in the tempering pool that was originally just bubbling and gurgling suddenly rolled up and formed a whirlpool.
The vortex carried a strong suction force and actually sucked in the soul light clusters scattered around!
All this happened so quickly, Roy did not expect such a vision to occur, so it was too late to snatch his soul back.
At the same time, Roy felt a powerful force acting on him, which was the power of the barrier! Roy and Fat Tiger were both repelled by the power of the barrier, and were immediately ejected.
A place of tempering.
He was ejected from one of the evil ghost doors. As soon as he left the barrier, the power suddenly dissipated. Even so, Roy and Fat Tiger also fell to the ground.
The middle demons wandering around the outskirts of the Tempering Land looked at Roy and Fat Tiger who were ejected with puzzled expressions. They didn't know what happened.
But at this moment, these middle demons seemed to sense something, howled and fled in all directions.
At this moment, Roy had just gotten up from the ground, but when he saw the evil ghost's door that he flew out of, the evil ghost's eyes actually lit up, emitting a scarlet light, and the evil ghost's door seemed to be here.
It felt like I came back to life in an instant!
As the scarlet light lit up, a powerful force, or will, descended on this evil door. Roy once again felt the same power as Sellon, so he knew that it must be
The will of a certain superior demon is linked to this evil door.
"Hoo ho ho! Look, another challenger has appeared!"
The evil ghost door made a sound, and its scarlet eyes stared at Roy, making the evil ghost's face look like a smile but not a smile.
"Sir, are you...?" Knowing that the other party was a high-level demon, Roy did not dare to be careless. Fortunately, when he was getting along with Sellon, he had developed a false respect for the high-level demon, so he showed no trace.
With a humble and puzzled expression.
"My name is Edlach! A high-ranking demon!" the voice said: "A servant of the demon lord Rogeros! Boy, don't you know that in this tempering land, killing in the barrier is prohibited?
?”
"Lord Edlach, I don't know!" Roy replied: "They attack me, I can't stand and let them attack, right?"
"Huh, I'm not interested in listening to this kind of argument about who is right and who is right!" Edlach said: "For thousands of years, there have been many demons in the enchantment of the Tempering Land who could not restrain their killing nature and killed
I have killed other demons, if I listen to every one of their reasons for doing something, will I die from exhaustion? What I do is what I do, I never care who is right or wrong!"
"Okay!" Roy exhaled softly and asked: "So, Lord Edlach, are you here to kill me, who breaks the rules?"
While saying this, Roy was ready to use the flash skill.
However, what I didn't expect was that Edlach laughed loudly and said: "Kill you? Why?"
"Huh? Didn't you say I broke the rules?" Roy said with some confusion.
"Hmph, there is the demon blood of Lord Rogeros in the water of this tempering place. The rules here are also set by the Lord!" Edlach said: "You have indeed broken the rules of the Lord.
It’s a rule! However, chaos and killing are the rules of the demon world, so it can’t be said that you did something completely wrong!”
"What does this mean?" Roy was a little confused. What did Adelaide want to express?
"Damn it, you guys who have just been promoted from lower-level demons are troublesome!" Edlach's voice sounded a little impatient and said: "Listen, I will only say it once! Don't you understand?
After becoming a middle-level demon, you should also have the status you deserve! Unlike those lower-level demons like ants, after you know how to use magic, you have also become a qualified warrior! So in some things,
You can also get the opportunities you deserve!"
"Killing in the enchantment of the Tempering Land is indeed not allowed, because if all demons do this, the number of median demons will be greatly reduced!" Edlach continued: "But the demons
The nature of killing is like this, so even the demon lord cannot criticize you harshly. Since you survived the siege, it means that you were the most powerful one in the enchantment at that time, and the warriors should receive the praise they deserve!"
This time, Roy really understood.
Warriors should be praised, but in turn, weakness is the biggest original sin! The meaning is obvious. Although Roy broke the rules, does Edlach still want to seek justice for those poor people who were killed?
It's impossible, the devil doesn't have any mercy in the first place, and it's impossible for him to sympathize with the weak.
From the perspective of the ruling class, although Roy did break the rules, they prefer this kind of bravery that stands out! Because it means that another powerful demon warrior is born.
At this moment, Roy finally realized the changes brought about by his promotion. In this abyss world, the lower demons have no one...well, the ruler's eyes can't even reach the lower demons, but once they reach the middle
Once you are in the demon class, you will immediately receive the attention you deserve.
This is a very obvious form of class discrimination. The more powerful a demon is, the more power it has to make bad rules. As long as you are strong enough, you can even make rules in reverse!
Roy felt that he really couldn't use his own human thinking to measure the devil's attitude towards certain things...
"I understand!" Roy nodded and said, "Sir Edlach, thank you for your consideration!"
"Well, it's good to understand. It seems that you are not an idiot!" Edlach's voice seemed to be very satisfied. The smarter devil saved him from having to waste time and said: "The warrior should get the power he deserves.
, but this kind of behavior is not worth advocating after all, so you still have to be punished. Lord Rogeros has no time to pay attention to these small things. I will announce your punishment decision: you must perform an execution mission.
!”
"Execution mission?"
"Yes! Execution mission, but the target of this execution is not you, but you will be the executioner! Go and kill the target set by Lord Rogeros!" Edlach said: "The mission is difficult to a certain extent.
Because this kind of goal, the strength is often higher than your own. If you can successfully complete the execution, Lord Rogeros will give you the reward you deserve after you come back..."
"Then, if I can't kill the target, but I am killed by the target, it will be my punishment for breaking the rules, right?" Roy said clearly.
"That's right!" Edlach said: "Execution and being executed depend on whether your strength is really strong. I hope you are not a demon who only knows how to bully the weak..."
When Edlach was talking, a black ball of light also appeared in front of Roy. The ball of light was wrapped in a crystal as thick as a thumb. The crystal was suspended in front of Roy. Edlach said
: "This is a memory crystal. It contains information about the target of your execution mission. You can read it after inputting magic power. Remember, you only have one year to complete this execution mission... After the mission is completed, you
You can come here to find me!"
After saying that, the power of Adelaher's will on the Evil Ghost Gate gradually dissipated, and the scarlet gaze of the Evil Ghost Gate gradually dimmed.
Roy did not touch the memory crystal immediately. Instead, he swayed his tail slightly and thought about it.
He also did not expect that he would encounter such a thing just after he was promoted to the middle demon. From Edlach's words, Roy sensitively discovered some information.
The demon lord is an existence higher than the upper demons. This tempering place seems to be built with the blood of the demon lord. Different from the shallow abyss world's laissez-faire attitude towards the lower demons, these demon rulers seem to have a conscious
The earth has done some management of the middle abyss world, but after all, this is not the world where high-level demons and demon lords live, so they can only execute their will through the arrival of this power.
Roy entered this middle abyss world for the first time. He was ignorant and did break the rules set by the demon lord. However, in the eyes of the ruling class, this was still within the tolerable range. After all, the demons who set up the tempering place
The lord specially made a barrier, and after absorbing the soul in the pool, he immediately expelled the demons in the barrier. This shows that they had expected that such a situation would happen, so they only punished him.
Of course, rules are indeed divided into tolerable and intolerable things. If Roy started killing in the place where the little devil was born on the surface, he would definitely be beaten to death and would not be tolerated at all.
It is more of a punishment than an opportunity, because this mission is for Roy to be the execution demon to chase other demons, not other demons to chase him, and there is no agreement with Roy at all.
The devil's contract also gives a very generous time limit.
If you can complete the task, there will be rewards. This mode is like a mercenary accepting a task. It looks like it is giving an opportunity to train Roy.
Hmm... It can't be said that it is only targeted at Roy. According to Edlach, many demons have broken the rules in the tempering land before, so this method of dealing with Roy may also be implemented on other demons.
Pass.
This situation, coupled with the word "warrior" revealed in Eldrach's words, made Roy couldn't help but think that maybe the demon lord was cultivating his own army.
The so-called lords refer to those who have their own jurisdiction, and generally speaking, there cannot be only one lord. Even human lords and lords will fight against each other, let alone demon lords, so Roy
I feel that this middle abyss world is actually the source of troops for the demon lords!
Chaos, killing, war... Tsk, this kind of world melody is really troublesome. Don't these demons find it boring?
Shaking his head, Roy took the memory crystal floating in front of him and input his magic power, intending to check what kind of mission goal Adelaher had given him...
