In a sense, we are lucky. At least we knew the plot in advance and found the spies from the unlucky group of foreign prisoners.
But in a sense, we are also unfortunate, because from the very beginning, this time it was us who were asking for trouble because of our passion. This time the devil's target was not us at all, or perhaps to be precise, it was not all us.
"Elemental war? Are you kidding, at this time?"
Thirty-two faceless demons were found among more than a hundred prisoners, and this time, we also learned their official sequence and title among demons: High Demon Thorosolian Demon. In the devil's language, it is
The meaning of the devil with a face made up of illusions (phantom face devil).
They are a special unit prepared by the devil for this holy war, a trump card specially used for infiltration and espionage warfare, and they were born less than five years ago.
With such a variety of special abilities, the Huanyan Demon is not low among demons. It is at least a mid-level demon that has advanced again, and it is able to send out so many high-level demons at once and prepare for them.
With the magical props for counter-reconnaissance, it is naturally the devil king, the boss among the devils.
The specific devil king is not something that the high-level devil in front of you can know. Devils who are good at conspiracy and deception are constantly fighting within the society. Orders are given one level at a time, and the subordinates can only obey. They behave too much.
Being aggressive or being too stupid is a dead end.
For such a big deal, the real mastermind and mission will not be released until the last moment, but their preliminary mission has been released. Naturally, they still know something about the situation, at least, who the target is.
"The Flame Elemental Lord is trying to attack the Ice Plane? Are you asking for a bridge? Is there something wrong with this version? Shouldn't the Elemental War be over long ago?"
I was a bit dumbfounded. I originally thought that the devils were here to cause trouble for Lan Meng, or at least to seek revenge on me. However, it turned out that they were two completely different things.
But from the unlucky guy's statement, the whole story was very clear.
Elemental war is actually the nature between elements. Since the beginning of creation, wind and earth have been fighting forever. Fire and water are incompatible, and the planes of both sides are immortal. The war between them is also eternal.
Endless.
With the formation of the Hades plane, the four subsidiary elemental planes are gradually taking shape. The first one to take shape is naturally the Ice Plane based on the Demon Realm of the Snowy Mountains.
The rise of new elemental planes seems to us to be natural, but in the eyes of the elemental monarchs and lords, the eternal structure of the four elemental planes has been shattered, which means that they will encounter new elements.
enemies and competitors.
Especially the flame elemental plane. When the four ancient elemental gods were resurrected before, the flame god was the only one who failed to be resurrected. Therefore, when the three elemental gods and the elemental plane were fighting fiercely, the flame elemental plane
His face was unusually calm.
This calmness is obviously abnormal. Fire elements have always been the elemental creatures with the most explosive tempers. They have a good relationship with demons and devils, and there is even a "blood relationship" between high-level officials. There are quite a few half-element and half-purgatory monsters.
Several famous abyss
The lord is also an elemental lord. Even Eliza, the Marquis of Fire Sea, and the most powerful Fire Demon and Corruption Lord, also have the blood of the fire element in a sense. If we only look at the overall strength of the plane, the flame element plane has the strongest combat effectiveness.
It should be second to none in the elemental plane.
With the advent of the holy war period, the strength of the fire elemental lords has increased sharply with the increase of the elemental tide. The number of elemental lords competing for the throne of the God of Elements actually reaches nearly three digits. Fighting is going on every day in the main plane, and there are also internal fights in the fire elemental plane.
It never stopped.
Facing the new elemental plane, the elemental lords of the fire elemental plane were able to maintain a high-spirited mentality. They first focused on the internal fighting, but soon, they were surprised to discover the growth rate of the fire elemental tide.
It actually dropped significantly, and now I can’t bear it.
With the establishment of the new four elements, it means that the two main planes and the eight elemental planes linked together are rebalanced, and the shares of the elemental tides naturally begin to be redistributed. In this turbulent period, the elements are reshuffled.
, naturally some people will gain and others will lose. Obviously, the flame elemental plane with two hostile elements has become the big loser inexplicably.
Through investigation, they easily discovered the natural hostility between the fire element and the ice element, and the conceptual hostility between high temperature and low temperature, which is even more direct and obvious than the original conceptual hostility between fire and water.
As a result, the Fire Lords and the others inexplicably found an enemy whose elements were incompatible with each other. When they learned that the owner of the Water Pillar was the God of the Water Element in the past, they had to settle old and new grudges together, and real interests were mixed with past grudges.
In everything, everything can be understood.
The original natural hostility between wind and earth, water and fire is actually competing for the share and sphere of influence of the elemental tide. Facing a new elemental group, a group that may be its natural enemy, they originally planned to do something in the holy war.
The Fire Lords suddenly found a new enemy.
But there is a problem, that is, the Ice Plane is still closed, which means it has not yet become an independent elemental plane. Therefore, in the new elemental plane that does not have a long history, the Fire Lord has no way to come and have fun.
Then, the devils came to the door... If you do some side work and preliminary work, you can see troubles everywhere and benefit from the enemy's misfortune. This is a typical devil's style.
"...Another murder with a borrowed knife, should I be called a devil? But you seem to have forgotten to say something, such as where is the beast tide now, and why does the fire element lord think that the cold Northland is a suitable battlefield?"
The fire element lord is not a fool. Even if there is huge hatred and endless interests, fighting a war with no chance of winning is tantamount to death.
It goes without saying how cold the North is. In a sense, this is the home of the ice element. For a long time, most of the ice element creatures in the world lived here, in an elemental plane.
Initiating an elemental war at home, even if this is a new elemental plane, the Flame Kings should not be so stupid.
"...Do you think I will know? We devils..."
The Noodle Demon still maintains his human form in front of me. Although the blond elf girl with big breasts looks very eye-catching, looking at the records, she is still engaged in the sex trade. But when I think of the noodle-like true appearance and the androgynous
Physically, I felt a little sour in my stomach, and then I felt inexplicably sympathetic to the unlucky guy who was involved.
"Perhaps, I should record 'her' true face and show it to that unlucky guy. He will probably vomit violently..."
As for it saying it doesn’t know? According to my understanding of devils, this is completely consistent with the shape of devil society. The subordinates are just chess pieces and cannon fodder for the superiors. The chess pieces who know too much will sooner or later have their own ideas. But...
Pressing the right arm on the neck, with a little force, the slender and weak neck was completely twisted. After the twisted light flashed, the soft neck turned into a more "slender" noodle.
"...Believe what the devil says? Do you think I'm a fool? I'd better ask your soul directly."
In front of a group of faceless demons, I unabashedly used the soul-searching undead spell. Black smoke was gathered on my arm, my fingers pulled the wailing soul, and countless information flashed across my eyes. Soon
, the magic of death drained away the fragments in its soul. I selectively began to browse its memory, but finally slowly shook my head. When I looked at the other devils, the devils in the corner actually started to shudder.
trembling.
"Ouch. This guy didn't lie. He really didn't know anything... Okay, it's your turn? Don't be afraid, it won't hurt. Well, anyway, you don't even have bones or nerves, so you can't feel any pain.
Bar."
A gust of cool wind blew by, and ice began to cover the floor of the cell. Frostbite appeared on the devils' bodies. What probably made them cringe the most was the black shadow of death behind me. The Undead Emperor had no intention of concealing his malice.
I tried my best to put on the most harmonious smile, just to enjoy the next show, but what I was greeted with was hysterical screams of fear. Devils who are regarded as nightmares by mortals are actually afraid of death. It is really rare to see.
"Hey, aren't you afraid of death? 'Killing me will only allow me to be reborn in the lower plane'. Isn't this your mantra when you are bluffing?"
It is difficult for the residents of the lower plane to die cleanly in the main plane. It is common for the body to be destroyed and the soul to escape and return to the lower plane for resurrection. But to me, this kind of immortality is extremely weak. Extracting the soul is like crushing their soul with a steamroller.
Turning into pieces of soul fragments, returning to the River Styx has nothing to do with its predecessor. All escape routes are cut off, and all the accumulations return to nothingness. This is probably the most miserable way for a devil to die.
"...Wait a minute, I'm going to say..."
Halfway through my words of begging for mercy, I was stunned, my confused expression turned into nothingness, and my dissipated soul was already guided by me. Yes, I had no intention of listening to the devil perform the "art of lies". Anyway, the devil will collapse first and then judge.
That's absolutely correct.
The frozen feet prevented them from escaping. Knowing that the devils deceived art and performance talents, I did not intend to give them a chance to perform at all.
The desperate devil broke out in the desperate situation. Various spells and curses allowed me to see the true combat power of this special devil. But in front of the serious person, it was just like a small fireworks display. After a flash, the next
There is nothing left.
"The combat power is really weak. The Iron Feather Demon, a low-level demon, can fight better than you..."
Their soft bodies cannot use any martial arts, and their magical tendencies are towards darkness and witchcraft, but their levels are not high. The only thing worth mentioning is that they actually have pretty strong psychic powers. Don't tell me, it's probably bad for their minds.
A steadfast knight of justice, he is useless as an anti-knight, but for ordinary humans, he is a powerful hypnotist that cannot be resisted. Moreover, he should also have certain mind-reading and memory-reading abilities.
This is obviously a special force specializing in infiltration. It has excellent frontal combat capabilities, but its ability to infiltrate and destroy is extremely disgusting. It can incite riots, create chaos, bribe traitors, and disguise itself as insiders. Just thinking about it gives people a headache.
I have also seen the prop they use to shield the Starlight Network. It is a dark monkey's paw necklace, but even if it is worn on the body, as long as the contract wrist wheel is used within one meter, it can still be detected. The shielding effect can only be considered average.
But when ordinary people touch it, they feel inexplicably panic and fear. When they crush it, they can hear the sound of apes wailing. It seems that it is probably a cursed prop that a big boss paid for and mass-produced in one go.
A large number of memories flooded into my mind, many of which were demons that were three or four hundred years old. Memories of stealing, cheating, and fraud were all mixed together. It was not that they were incompetent, but some were because they were overly capable.
However, his ambition was obvious and he was forced by his superiors to transform into a phantom-faced demon.
Too much memory and knowledge are gone with the wind, and the lost souls are returning to the Styx. I don't have time to sort them out. I just discard those that have nothing to do with the North. I only look up the recent important news. I don't believe that the devil will not try to find out the true purpose of the superiors.
,Finally, a place name caught my attention.
"Chauvinistic Dominion, Mixed-blood Dominion? How could they be involved..." (~^~)
