She sat on her little chair under the princess umbrella. The little girl's silky blond hair was flying in the wind. She covered her mouth and snickered while trying her best to grab the lollipop in her hand.
Her fair skin is as smooth as milk, her cute pink princess dress has a cute little bat pattern, her pink face has a shy smile, and she smiles sweetly, like a little angel who has strayed into the mortal world.
When she found out that I was looking at her, she blushed in embarrassment, but the tip of her pink tongue did not stop. Instead, she moved faster like a greedy cat licking milk. After a while, most of the lollipop had been licked.
In the eyes of others, she might be an innocent little girl who would smile sweetly from time to time because of the sweetness of the candies, but looking at me from the side, I felt uncomfortable all over.
"What a cute little girl? Sir, where did you kidnap her from?"
Eliza had already collected her emotions, opened the door and came in, only to find this strange little girl, very curious.
"Your master, Heloise the Omniscient."
I answered expressionlessly, and then Eliza immediately dropped the intelligence document in her hand to the floor. Then, she pushed up her glasses and didn't say anything, just silently lowered her head and started picking it up.
"Why don't you ask? Why is this old witch pretending to be young all of a sudden? Where is greed?" This reaction was so calm, but I was surprised.
"No, when I think about how she is your master and how you become what you are today is related to her, I suddenly feel that no matter what kind of person she is, I can accept it."
What does it mean that I can accept it just because he is my master? It seems that I am hopeless and unreliable.
"When have you ever been reliable? The thing about you has never been reliable. Stop guessing, I can't read minds, and you didn't accidentally leak anything. Even if you are wearing a mask, when will your emotions be reliable?"
You can't hide it from me. It seems that you have forgotten me and you for decades."
Looking at Eliza, who was as venomous as ever and seemed to be back to normal on the surface, lowering her head and trying to hide her still red and swollen eyes, pretending to be calm, I was also a little at a loss.
But luckily, there was an idiot next to him who didn't understand the atmosphere at all.
The old witch over there finally remembered that she was still the majestic Third Archon of the Undead and the Banshee King. It was too ugly to lick a lollipop like a child, so she hid the candy behind her back and planned to throw it away, but she felt it was a pity, and then she didn't
He had the nerve to take a peek at us and found that we were still chatting, so he quickly turned around, opened his mouth and nibbled away the remaining candy cubes in a few mouthfuls.
Then he turned around quickly without even having time to swallow the candy in his mouth...
"Haha, good disciple, I didn't expect that your knowledge of undead creation has reached this level. Ahem!... Well, you can actually make the undead have a sense of taste, wow...
Cough cough cough, this body is really powerful, I feel like the divine blood is flowing in my body, maybe I will be stronger than when I was in my prime. Cough cough cough!!!... I finally coughed it up and almost died again."
Behind him was the dark wind caused by the magic power. His smaller body was slightly suspended, but he deliberately spoke in an old-fashioned tone. However, in the eyes of the audience, there was no trace of majesty. Apart from the unusually innocent and cute childish voice, he thought he had just said two words.
While saying an arrogant line, he accidentally choked on a piece of lollipop and couldn't help but cough.
I can understand the excitement of the undead who lost their senses and suddenly regained their sense of taste, but it is wrong to be malicious and cute, not to mention that the old witch pretending to be younger will not make people feel cute, so I laughed out loud.
"Wow, Eliza, look at how stupid she is. She's so old and she's actually stuck on candy..."
But she stopped in the middle of laughing, because she thought Eliza looked at me with sympathy, just like looking at a child who laughs at fifty steps.
I can probably understand it - "You may need a mirror. The time you applied too much lubricant, the bones couldn't be connected. Later, I glued them together for you. At that time, you probably looked that stupid.
.”
Well, it's not that I can read minds, it's just that Eliza has said it out loud.
"Ahem, Heloise, I..." I just changed the topic, but was interrupted by a mouthful of Heloise.
"Call me teacher. I'm very satisfied with this body and very interested in your plan, so just write down the account. I won't expel you as a teacher for the time being."
Shaking my head, I didn't refute, it was just a title. Anyway, she did teach me a lot. If she wants to be a teacher, she can be one.
"Okay, old demon...Teacher, why do you look like this? Your body has dozens of fixed forms. There should be other shapes you can take. Or, personal interests? Want to try the old demon?
Cows pretending to be young grass?”
Heloise sighed and shook her head helplessly.
"No, this is what I really looked like when I died. The soul and the body need to be matched to better resonate and combine. In order to fully integrate the body and soul, it is better to maintain this form for a short period of time. Speaking of which, I'm afraid you still
The only being who knows my form."
"What!!?" After hearing this, even I, who have known her for hundreds of years, was shocked. This means that this is the true soul of the old witch. In other words, she was so innocent when she transformed into an undead.
She looked so cute, but she was just this big when she died.
"What's so surprising, don't you know? The undead are the product of obsession and curse. The purer and noble the soul is, the more desperate it is in the darker reality, and the more vicious the curse is, the easier it is to give birth to a powerful one.
Undead, weren't you the same back then..."
"Ahem, it's better to say less unnecessary words. By the way, how's the situation with the dark elves?" I don't want to be exposed, so this time, it's my turn to interrupt the topic.
Knowing that I didn't want to mention those old things, she shook her head. Heloise waved her hand, and the gravel in the air floated up, forming a sand fortress on the ground. In fact, there were countless sand people moving freely. Looking carefully,
Just like real people.
Among them, there are countless moving sand balls chasing the sand man. Once they catch up, they jump up and form a ball. After the sand ball leaves, the sand man not only has no clothes and equipment, but is also paralyzed.
Unable to move.
"The Son of Greed has unlimited potential. It has just evolved a little, and its combat power has increased at least ten times. If you let me control it in human form, divide the arms into teams and battle groups, and cooperate in war, I can guarantee that I can easily control this city.
"
[Son of Greed (evolution) Race: Half-Undead Slime, all 5 attributes. Ability: Devouring reserve, secreting fiber decomposition liquid, rapid self-replication, single-line magic control, single-line magic immunity, paralyzing venom, liquid transformation. System evaluation: Me
There’s nothing to say. If you want to destroy the world, just do it. If you don’t want to get up one day and find that the whole world is just jelly, just take care of her.】
The divine blood is still very powerful. The Son of Greed seems to have changed little this time, but in fact the individual combat power is at least ten times stronger than before. The liquid deformation makes it extremely resistant to physical attacks. According to the color and composition
Differently, the complete immunity and control of a single type of magic also gives it a certain ability to cast spells.
Targeting the dark elves, this time the Black Greedy Sons were dispatched. For Priest Rose, who is good at curses and dark magic, these black liquid slimes, which are completely immune to dark elements and negative energy, are simply the most difficult to deal with.
of natural enemies.
But if you really do what she said and make slime warriors, slime mages, etc., and start a slime war, then maybe the underground world will really think that there is a hostile intelligent race, and that will be a lot of fun.
"By the way, good disciple, can we discuss this?"
"Of course, I'm always open to negotiation, except for canceling the magic pet contract."
"I am a majestic omniscient person, the most noble and ancient banshee king in existence. How can I be a stupid and despicable familiar? That is what stupid animals should do!"
"You are already a demon pet. Stop playing tricks. According to the contract, you will be buried with me when I die. When you die...I will try my best to squeeze out two tears to express my sorrow."
Yes, in order to tie the strongest iron chain to this super dangerous person, Heloise, the Banshee Queen, is my mage familiar at this time.
[Magic Pet: Heloise (Mother of Greed) Race: Unclassifiable, Strength: 22, Agility: 10, Physical: 40, Intelligence: 28, Will: 25, Charm: Any Profession: Level 60 Mage/Level 20 All Series
Mage/Level 1 Comprehensive Evaluation Legendary Primary Race Ability: Transformation (Epic) System Evaluation: This is your familiar, but she is always thinking about how to kill you within the constraints of the contract, take care of her, or wait to be defeated by her.
.]
Heloise is so obedient just because she has signed a familiar contract with me. In fact, under normal circumstances, although a necromancer can sign a familiar contract with another undead, one with such power and high IQ is
Impossible.
It's just that I took advantage of another loophole in the rules. As a necromancer, I can sign a contract with my creation "Greedy", and greed only has instincts and no soul. Naturally, the magic pet contract targeting the soul cannot take effect, but
At this time, the unconscious Heloise's soul was put into Greed's body, and the contract naturally regarded Heloise, who had lost her resistance and will, as Greed's soul, so the contract was successfully established.
As my familiar, according to the basic rule that the level of a mage's familiar cannot exceed the level of the mage himself, Heloise's strength has plummeted all the way, dropping two levels from epic to the basic level of legend, and she has become a lot better behaved.
After signing this magic pet, the benefits for me are also obvious. One-tenth of the basic attributes of the magic pet will be attached to the owner, but for ordinary mages, it often does not have much effect. Those ravens
, black cats, bats, and owls have appalling attributes. If you add one tenth to your physical strength and one to your agility, it will be very rare.
But my magic pet has strength +2, agility +1, physical strength +4, intelligence +3, will +2, the effect of undead magic increases by 30%, and the effect of elemental magic increases by 20%. It is so powerful, not to mention that it is extremely powerful.
Strong fighting ability and the ability of the son of greed.
To be honest, I signed a magic pet contract with her because I still lack the most basic trust in her and I really don’t dare to keep her out of sight.
"I can keep this magic pet contract even after my resurrection. At that time, even if this powerful magic pet falls back to level one, it will still be my most powerful support to clear my name again."
According to the plan, the day of my resurrection is not far away, so I have to think about the future in advance.
So, I looked at Heloise with evil intentions.
"Forty points of stamina, what an excellent human shield and blood cow. Teacher, from now on, all the beatings will be up to you."
At this moment, Heloise suddenly made a sound of surprise.
"Eh!? Why did those guys show up?"
On the sand table terrain map, the group of strong men were moving towards the city gate. When I saw this situation, I laughed.
"Have you ever heard that artifacts have spirits and you can choose their master to serve them?"
"Nonsense, I have touched at least two digits of artifacts, and I have never seen an artifact that can choose its own owner. No matter how powerful the artifact is, it is made for people to use. If the artifact is smart enough to choose its own owner,
Shouldn't they have been returned to their original owners long ago, or those fools would have dug a hole to bury themselves because they were so annoyed by the fight. Choosing the owner of the artifact? This is clearly a lie to gild the protagonist in knight novels.
.If the artifact really grows and runs away, don't think about identifying the owner of the artifact. You should immediately suspect whether you have encountered a conspiracy or a trap."
"It's a pity that some people don't see it that way, or they think about it, but they pretend it's an accident and still can't look away."
Looking at the crowd on the sand table heading towards the outside of the city, I couldn't help but sigh.

Space bifurcation points are natural space channels, which are often unstable space nodes. It is completely unknown where they will be transported after entering. More than 90% of space bifurcation points are such completely random dimensional gates.
However, there are often some connections between the divergent points in space. Going from one divergent point in space to another is the most likely occurrence in random transmission. There are even relatively stable links formed between some divergent points in space, which can be
It forms a stable channel like crossing a bridge.
There are many such stable passages in the underground world, and they have been regarded as normal passages. The owners of the local underground cities have also regarded them as their own wealth and military points, and have set up checkpoints and fortresses.
However, the formation of spatial bifurcation points mainly relies on nature. Even in the strata, the number of underground worlds with unstable spatial structures is much greater than that of the above-ground world. However, if you want to find a spatial bifurcation point around Vitan, it will lead to the area around Sulfur Mountain City.
, the possibility can be completely ignored, but extremely advanced space magic and a huge price can establish a temporary link.
The previous sudden attack was through the activation and distortion of a hidden space divergence point in this mining area, forming a temporary passage with the divergence point in a cave thirty miles south of Sulfur Mountain City, and then the two overlords
Conducted a surprise attack with the Guards.
Of course, this shows from one aspect that the underground overlords have been obsessed with Sulfur Mountain City for more than a day or two. Linking the two spaces must be done from both sides at the same time, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and cannot be prepared in a short time.
At that time, when the orc army he brought was completely destroyed, he even ran back directly in order to avoid the space divergence being discovered.
There are many differences this time. The two spatial divergences are forcibly linked for the second time. The unstable spatial link will become stable, and the temporary channel will become a permanent channel. In contrast, what must be paid is
The cost and difficulty of connecting again will increase significantly.
As for space magic, if the demons who live in the lower planes and constantly cause harm to countless planes are ranked second, I am afraid that no race dares to say that they are ranked first.
This blood-red demon altar will use the unstable space structure of the space bifurcation point to open the door to the demon plane with a large number of sacrifices. While receiving reinforcements and support, the demon count who has been waiting for a long time will personally take action to destroy this bifurcation point.

"As long as there is no Sulfur Mountain City, these idiots are nothing."
Although Tao's words were unpleasant, they pointed out the biggest weakness of Sulfur Mountain City, which was that Sulfur Mountain City itself had weak defenses and lacked strategic depth. It only had one city.
"Haha, it only has a history of a hundred years, so it doesn't matter. Cut off its old nest, no matter how capable Adam and the sleepless man are, they are destined to lose their foundation and cannot make waves."
Of course, they still had tacit words that they did not say out loud, such as the seal of the God of Fire Element that the big bosses behind both sides demanded to be lifted at the same time, and their plan to immediately fall out after the removal of Sulfur Mountain City.
At this time, countless phalanxes of soldiers have begun to form, and they are waiting for the time for the dimensional gate to open.
"My twelve legions, seventy-nine thousand underground orcs! In front of my elite soldiers, those cowards in Sulfur Mountain City are nothing to mention!"
"The four divisions I borrowed from you, although there are only 30,000 people, there are two magic war groups and one black wizard war group, which should be able to make up for the magic power you lack."
The dark army began to gather, and silent battle flags were erected one by one. This was the heritage of the underground overlords, the elite combat power of dozens of underground cities.
Among the legends, there are many saint-level powerhouses, and there are also several epic-level bosses. Unlike last time, this time the underground overlords are well prepared.
Suddenly, Tao looked at the sky over Vitan City. First he was happy, then surprised, then angry, and then, there was a hint of fear.
"The Scepter of Eternal Night?! It actually flew over by itself."
Yes, the scene in front of me is like a scene in a knight's novel. The artifact has chosen its master and traveled thousands of miles.
For the lion king who was deeply poisoned, this was naturally a happy thing, but what made him angry and even frightened was the crowd chasing the scepter. They did not agree with the so-called "artifacts have spirits, and they choose their master
Attendant."
"Don't touch it, it belongs to me, Greenspan!"
"No, only Lumsden, who is closest to the Undead Emperor, is worthy of that scepter. I have already heard its call."
"Idiot, that's your illusion. The scepter is clearly calling me! This is a test for me!"
The three undead archons who rushed to the front were almost crazy. Looking at the green fire of souls burning crazily in their eyes, they seemed to be burning their own souls, but those behind them had everything.
I really don’t know how the huge Nine-Headed Dragon King came from the remote swamp. It is impossible for its huge body to pass through the underground passage.
Over there, the archangel holding the sun bow was fighting and chasing the Balrog wielding the flame whip. The King of Sharon in the desert was destroying the entire underground passage. The elf knight riding a unicorn was racing the Lord of Death.
The strong men of the clan are all chasing the scepter, but what stands in front of them is the coalition of two underground overlords.
At this moment, Tao inexplicably remembered the words that the man disguised in robes and masks left a month ago before he left.
"You may regret it."
At that time, I replied with great pride.
"The Orc King never regrets!!"
But at this time, seeing his army involved in an inexplicable battle, being crushed and slaughtered by strong men of all races, he felt weak as never before in his body, and looked at Yong Yong, who was shining with dazzling brilliance in front of him.
Night Scepter felt that Alul, who had left his army and disappeared without a trace, was growing old in all aspects of despair, and the old lion with all white hair could only sigh helplessly.
"Sleepless man, you are right, I regret it, but..."
"WAGHHHH!! Orcs never give up"
But the next second, after an astonishing roar, and the old lion scratched a scar on his face to record hatred, the lion king who never gave up was back again.
"The Sleepless Man is more cunning than the devil! I admit that I regret it, but that doesn't mean I will admit defeat! The Sleepless Man! Today's gift will definitely be repaid tenfold!!"
"The First, Seventh, and Ninth Battle Groups are coming forward, and the One-Eyed Battle Group is facing the impact head-on. Get in formation! Let them see how powerful the Orc Legion is! Weak earthlings actually dare to run wild in the underground world! Kill them all!!"
－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－
"Greed is always the most difficult original sin to overcome."
Seeing that the Eternal Night Scepter fans group had disappeared without a trace on the sand table, I also planned to get up and take action.
"No wait?"
"Well, the underground overlords are not that easy to deal with, and we have to prepare. Eliza, help me thank Mi Ni for the information. If he hadn't told us about the gathering of the Old Lion Army, we would have really gotten away with it this time.
.By the way, let Annie and Adam get ready to leave, it’s time for the decisive battle.”
