Chapter 26 26. The curse destined to bear

Chapter 26 26. The Curse Destined to Bear

A long time passed.

The strange vision on Xiphiel gradually faded.

The black lines on the skin dispersed; the cocoon-like protrusions in the flesh also shrank; the black mist no longer came out of the mouth.

After the attack was over, Xifer straightened up with difficulty and returned to his seat.

The young man's neatly dressed tuxedo was in a mess, clinging to his body and becoming slightly translucent due to cold sweat. His face was haggard and pale, and a drop of sweat was still hanging on his hair.

Xiphiel knew that he had fallen ill again just now.

This is [Demon Disease], a curse caused by the erosion of the nine hell planes.

The most holy and pure, supreme and noble heart of the angel, and the nine hell spaces that always whisper malice, are fighting with Sifer's body as the battlefield. Every time he gets sick, severe pain and itching come together, shortening his lifespan.

Corrupt the mind.

Siffel had to endure this kind of pain every few days.

Opposite the long bronze table, the young man's face was pale, but his tone was calm and without waves.

[Status: Plane erosion·severe (life expectancy: 100 days)]

"It's a pity that I don't have a chance to show off in front of Dellin for the time being."

Syphiel was in the next room, observing the changes in the ink on the "Book of Lords".

However, under Xifer's arrangement, no matter what kind of grotesque creatures these newly recruited devils were originally, after they were promoted, they all existed in human form.

Everyone looks better, doesn’t it smell good?

"Lord?" Lulu approached Xifer carefully.

As soon as this sentence came out, Lulu immediately covered her mouth, realizing that her words and deeds were inappropriate.

[Soul energy: 90,000]

"Okay, I'm fine. Everything is going according to the original plan!"

She was sympathetic, but also worried that the lord would become angry because his subordinates saw her ugly appearance.

···

By consuming soul energy, the devil will advance through obscure rituals.

"No need." Xiphiel forced out a smile, waved his hand, and said meaningfully:

"This is the curse I am destined to bear."

"I'm sorry, Miss Lulu. I let you see my embarrassing side." Xifeier forced a smile and said in a weak voice:

"This is a curse I carry. It happens from time to time. It's not dangerous, it's just uncomfortable."

——In the Palace of the Nine Hells, nobles and lords plotted against each other, sometimes imposing terrible curses on their competitors. Lord Xifer was able to be promoted to the position of Grand Duke, and he would definitely encounter many enemies along the way.

It's no surprise that he has a curse of some kind.

···················

Soon after.

"Please come in, Lord Lulu, the path to ascension to perfection has been opened for you."

Xifer guessed that this was because he had already fought against the lord of the wilderness, and the Nine Hell planes paid more attention to him, and the erosion of the planes also accelerated.

However, my condition seems to be particularly serious today, and the severe pain and itching are much more unbearable than before.

They are all members of Xifer's new palace staff.

Lulu nodded slightly, she had heard similar rumors.

One by one, the excited devils walked into the ceremony room in turn and accepted their own promotion ceremony.

Lulu nodded lightly and walked into the ceremony room with an anxious mood.

In a ceremony room in a giant basalt fortress covering an area of ​​several square miles, a magnificent chanting sound that seemed to transcend time and space came out.

All the past misfortune and melancholy disappeared, Lulu opened the door,

With endless joy and endless longing for the future.

Moreover, in the future "Dawn" games, you may need to chat with the customer service of the player. You can't let the player find out that the "customer service lady" is a monster with goat horns, donkey hooves, red skin, and the whole body is covered with scales, right?

Including Lulu, 20 devils completed their promotion in the lord's fortress.

[Race: Arch Devil/Seraph]

Lulu is also one of them.

This kind of promotion is usually accompanied by a complete change in form. During the terrifying climax of the ritual, the devil will be completely reborn and transform into a new, more evil and powerful form. For example, a chain demon with an average strength of level 4 may transform into an average

A fifth-level bone demon with strength. The chains around the chain demon will quickly rust and corrode during the ritual, and the body will transform into the bone demon's hideous form, which is similar to a skeleton monster.

To Xifer who was suffering severe pain on the ground,

He took an inward look at his own condition.

Life expectancy is shorter than last time!

"No, the [Demon Syndrome] is becoming more and more serious. We must run away as soon as possible." Xifer set a goal for himself in his heart.

"Lord Xifer, do you need me to find a way to lift the curse for you?"

[Level: Level 93]

Xifer is a grand duke. If there is a simple way to get rid of this curse, he must have found it long ago.

This promotion consumed a total of 200,000 units of soul energy!

Excluding "cash" in the form of soul coins, soul gems, etc., which are difficult to monitor and count, only the last 90,000 units of flowing soul energy in the territory remain.

When Xifer first came to power, there were still 500,000 soul energy in War Wasteland, but now there is less than one-fifth left, which shows the great Duke's wisdom and prowess.

But Xifer also knew that during this period, many devils would have to be deposed and demoted.

In the process of downgrading these demons, a lot of soul energy is released!

It seems that the glorious task of consuming this batch of soul energy will be left to the players!
