This is the most cruel contract for the devil, second only to the devil's true name being known.
Once he is enslaved by others, not only will he lose his freedom, but his growth will be greatly restricted.
To put it more simply, at least half of the life force he obtains through eating in the future will be shared with the contractor.
This contract is so deep into the soul that it cannot be broken even by death.
The only way to get rid of it is to dissolve the soul and recreate it again. If you get to this point, even if you are a devil, you will no longer be the original devil.
No.
He will never accept this contract. No one can enslave him.
He had finally escaped from the Tethyama mines and from the hands of the damn goblin lich. How could he accept a more humble slavery?
He, Andrew, will never be a slave.
boom!
The dog demon who had just gathered some energy to fight against the soul slavery contract felt like he had been shot in the head again.
It was that damn psychic attack again that turned his brain into a ball of mush, and he was completely defeated.
At this time, the goblin warlock's spell was also completed. The soul fluctuations of the two were tending to the same pace, establishing a mysterious connection. A light visible to the naked eye appeared between the two, and a stream of light could be clearly seen.
The red substance is flowing continuously from the dog demon to the goblin warlock - this is the essence of the dog demon, the power of hell.
Gavin, who had already made preparations, pulled the dying dog demon out of the obviously thinning holy water and threw it at Vic's feet.
The two of them roared involuntarily at the same time.
With the infusion of a large amount of hell power, the goblin warlock's body was elongated by an invisible force, growing at least ten centimeters taller. The skinny body even began to show the outline of muscles, and there were obvious signs of demonization. His eyes
From scarlet to the same orange color as the dog demon, a pair of short sharp horns emerged from his forehead, which represented that he was marked by the power of hell.
No wonder, it is difficult for people in the world to refuse the devil and the devil's temptation of power, even if they know that the end will be miserable in the future, because the process of obtaining power is too fast and too simple, without any training or effort, and only requires a simple contract.
The dog demon is just the opposite. Mama Lai Lai's body, corroded by the holy water, is further dehydrated.
One is because part of his essence was taken away by the goblin warlock.
Second, he is taking advantage of this opportunity to repair his severely damaged body, and his four legs are growing back.
This time there was no extra life force for him to use, so he could only use his own capital.
By the time the two sides stabilized, the dog demon had shrunk to the size of an ordinary warg.
Not only did the goblin warlock's body gain strength and growth, but his professional level was also raised by one level, reaching level seven.
Although his body has returned to normal, the body of the dog demon is extremely sluggish, lying next to the goblin warlock, not even wanting to move a step.
Looking at Gavin, there was no resentment at all, only endless fear.
The half-elf in front of him was really terrifying. Even the devil couldn't think of what he did to himself.
If possible, the dog demon wouldn't want to stay by his side for even a second.
But the problem is that he can't help himself now. From now on, he will be a bully and a horse for them. Not only is there no benefit, but he will also have to pay back.
Is there still heavenly law? Is there still royal law?
If he had known earlier, he would have stayed in the Tesyama mine. Although the goblin lich's methods were cruel, at least within the scope of a normal person, he could barely accept it.
Gavin didn't even look at the dog demon. Even though he was a demon, after all this trouble, he didn't have the energy or courage to do anything for him behind his back.
The best way to deal with the devil is to always be stronger than him and always make him fear you.
Gavin still has this kind of confidence.
This is why he dared to let the goblin warlock take risks. If it were a chaotic and unreasonable demon, Gavin would have sent it back to its hometown in the abyss - that kind of funny, just like Erha, don't even think about it.
Trained into an obedient police dog.
"How do you feel?" Gavin's gaze remained on the goblin warlock from beginning to end, pressing the magic sword tightly.
If Vic shows anything wrong, even if he is not killed, his arm must first be rested to temporarily lose his ability to cast spells.
The goblin warlock's orange eyes, which were somewhat similar to those of the devil, flickered for a moment, and he shook his long hand that looked a bit like the claws of a dog demon, and said: "Chief, I'm fine, better than ever. I feel full of strength.
In my body, I am stronger than ever."
When Vic spoke, wisps of smoke came out of his mouth, with a faint smell of sulfur, the smell of the devil. This kind of demonization is not only about the appearance, but also inside the body that can be seen by the naked eye.
The invisible transformation.
Seeing that the goblin warlock was still rational, Gavin breathed a long sigh of relief and said: "Don't be confused by this feeling. This is just an illusion of sudden infusion of power. Don't let the power control you, but go."
Control this power and you can become a truly strong person."
"Yes, I will work harder in the future." The goblin warlock said respectfully.
Only then did Gavin turn his attention to the dog demon who was pretending to be dead and said, "Where did you come from? How did you enter the material plane?"
It would be very difficult for evil alien creatures like the Bard Demon to enter the main material plane without a summons and invitation, especially Toril.
Although Toril is part of the multiverse, the gods have sealed the crystal wall, making plane travel a relatively difficult task, especially for evil alien creatures.
For those strong men who aim to pursue power, this matter does bring them a lot of inconvenience.
But for most ordinary residents, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages, as they don't have to face most of the monsters and monsters of the multiverse.
"If you keep pretending to be dead, believe it or not, I will let you take another holy water bath. Although the rest will be less effective, it will still be enough to deal with you now." Gavin snorted coldly.
Completely ignoring the resentful look cast by the young priest next to her.
Her bathtub was a bathtub that she had only used a few times. The black and white positive and negative energies in it were still conflicting, and a few sulfurous bubbles appeared from time to time. Can she still use it in the future?
This time, Gavin did not ignore Anna anymore, and softly comforted him: "This bathtub of yours is too bulky, and it is inconvenient to fetch water every time. In a few days, I will discuss it with Zach and give you a whole bathtub."
It is equipped with an automatic spray bath equipment and a natural bluestone bathtub. Once you turn it on, hot water will come out in a gush. It is no easier than fetching bath water."
"Really?" Anna's eyes were a little suspicious, but she sounded very happy.
"Really, more real than real gold." Gavin promised with confidence, "When have I ever lied to you?"
"Hmph!" The young pastor pouted and hummed. Gavin had indeed never lied to her, but he did trick her a lot. He dug a hole for her to jump into, and happily counted the money for him afterwards.
The dog demon did not dare to pretend to be dead anymore. He reluctantly raised his head and said feebly: "I escaped from the Tesyama mine. The number two person there, an orc shaman, sold his soul to the devil and often summoned various people.
If the devil comes, I will take the opportunity to run away."
"The Tethyama Mine? The Tethyama Mine in the Desert Mountains? The one that was lost from the hands of the dwarves?" Gavin involuntarily raised his voice.
Even if he is as experienced and steady as he is, at this moment, he is somewhat out of his element.
Because if the Tesyama mine mentioned by both of them is the same, then they have found a treasure, and the dog demon will be the biggest source of information.
Gavin has a big plan in mind. If this plan is stirred up, it will not only change the rocky land, but also the entire Heartland region and even the entire Faerûn.
Among them, retaking the Tesyama Mine is also a part of his grand plan.
Although it is far from time to put the plan into action, it would be good to know the information about him in advance.
"Besides the Tesyama mine, is there another one?" The dog demon's answer confirmed this.
"Very good, I think we need to have in-depth communication." Gavin smiled meaningfully.
Gavin's smile made the dog demon shiver uncontrollably, as if he had a bad premonition.
This time, the dog demon's premonition was probably correct. Gavin's next questions were all about the Tesyama mine. Of course, the dog demon had no need to hide it, because it did not involve his own interests, and it was not even a betrayal.
They were called because they came.
After Gavin collected the information about the Tesyama Mine, he said to the Dog Demon: "Now there is a task for you."
There is no doubt about Goblin Warlock Vic's loyalty, but his execution ability is obviously very lacking. Now that the Dog Demon has made up for this deficiency, he can be given some tasks appropriately.
"What mission?" The dog demon's spirit has obviously recovered a lot.
"Your favorite mission is to go to the Spirit Crystal Mine, provoke those goblins, and take the initiative to attack the Black Well Tribe."
The dog demon has a very high IQ. Gavin just said a simple sentence and he completely reacted, "You want to drain the blood of those goblins during defense and then seize the mine."
"I underestimated the value of the spiritual crystal mines. Some of them are too big to be removed. I must correct them now." Gavin nodded appreciatively and said: "Over there, I don't care what you do, and I don't ask. I only want the final result."
"Okay, I'll go. When will it start?"
"Right now."
"Let's go." The dog demon turned into a warg again and bent his knees beside the goblin warlock.
Before being enslaved, he didn't care about being used as a mount by goblins, or in other words, this was a way for him to control goblins.
Now that he is forced to sign a soul slavery contract, he doesn't even care about this. To be more precise, he just wants to escape as soon as possible and escape from the group of guys in front of him who are covered in kindness but are darker than the devil inside.
"Who said Vic will go too? This matter is your own mission." How could Gavin let Vic and the dog demon be alone for a long time? Never underestimate the power of a demon's seductive words.
"Shall I go by myself?" The dog demon obviously didn't expect that Gavin would let the reins go so long.
"Why, you don't want to?" Gavin smiled enigmatically.
"Yes, yes." The magic power around the dog demon began to gather, and his body began to loom. In order to escape as quickly as possible, he directly used his magic-like ability, any door.
When it appeared again, the dog demon had already appeared hundreds of meters away from the Black Well tribe.
Ouch!
The dog demon couldn't help but look up to the sky and howl.
There is both the excitement of surviving a disaster and the catharsis of grief and anger.
The bright sunshine is shining on me.
Andrew was in a trance for a while, as if he was in another world.
Think about it, what makes the dog demon sad is that he obviously possesses the magic-like random door that is best at escaping, the flash spell.
If he was restrained by a restraining spell like Dimensional Anchor, he would admit it.
Unfortunately, from the beginning to the end, no one could cast it, and they were restricted by physical means.
This is the first time that the dog demon knows that if physical means are used to the extreme, there will be such a magical effect.
This kind of opponent is not something you can contend with. The best way is to follow the opponent all the way to the bottom.
What's more, the soul is in someone else's hands, and the dog demon has no choice.
As soon as the dog demon left, the young priest couldn't help but ask: "Mr. Gavin, why did you assign him such a task? Aren't the goblins over there in the spiritual crystal mine already out of food? Just wait for a few dozen
day, they will collapse on their own."
Not only Anna, but also Vic's eyes were flashing with doubts.
Gavin explained patiently: "Let alone a few ten days, even one or two ten days are too long for us.
Don’t forget, there is a big goblin tribe called Bloodclaw next to us. They have a natural influence on the goblin tribe. Once they get the news, they will take the lead and annex the spiritual crystal mine and occupy it. We will try to take it down.
, the difficulty can rise straight up.
To support the Eagle Cliff Dungeon against the Harpy, this unstable factor also needs to be eliminated.
Rather than waiting passively, it is better to control the rhythm of the war in our own hands."
"So that's it." Anna showed an expression that seemed to understand.
"The current composition of the Black Well Tribe is too mixed. It combines more than a dozen kobold tribes. Don't look at the whole tribe as one. If you look closely, there are still people who are close and distant, who gather together in groups. After all, it takes too long to merge together.
short.
There are two ways to change this phenomenon. One is to use time to dilute everything, and what we lack most now is time.
Another method is the tempering of blood and fire. When we have been on the battlefield together, shed blood together, and lived life and death together, the relationship will naturally become closer." Gavin added.
Anna couldn't help but widen her round black eyes: "Mr. Gavin, your belly is too twisted. Is this all you think about such a plan?"
Vic lightly added a stab at the side: "Chief, it's always been like this."
"Can I take your words as a compliment?" Gavin joked.
What he didn't say yet was that if he wanted to change the timid and cowardly nature of the kobolds, it would also require brilliant victories.
The goblins in the Spirit Crystal Mine are destined to be the stepping stone for the rise of the Black Well Tribe, but now they are just pushing forward the time for this stepping stone.
"Mr. Gavin's face is as thick as ever." Anna made a face at Gavin and jumped out, "Since a war is about to begin, I will hurry up, collect more herbs, and prepare more treatments.
Potion.”
When she reached the door, the young pastor turned around and waved her little fist at Gavin and said, "I will take the bathtub that Mr. Gavin promised after the war."
"No problem." Gavin waved his hand perfunctorily, probably starting to think about how to arrange his troops and achieve the most glorious victory with the least casualties.
When the dog demon Andrew arrived at the Spirit Crystal Mine, the goblins here had turned into a mess of gruel.
Not only was the food that was supposed to be traded intercepted by the Black Well tribe, but Andy, the leader of the tribe, had not been seen for several days.
Even under Gavin's careful management, the Black Well tribe, which was merged with multiple tribes, was a bit messy, not to mention the spiritual crystal mine, the situation was even worse.
These goblins are temporarily surrounding Andy because he has mastered the grain trade line of the Black Well Tribe. In fact, most of the goblins are surrounding their original tribal leader.
The dog demon who was Andy's mount was scolded by the goblin leaders as soon as he returned to the spiritual crystal mine.
"Where's Chief Andy? Where did he go?"
"Why did Heijing take back the grain we bought?"
"What happened?"
Although they were chirping and attacking, the goblin leaders still only dared to stand at a distance, surrounded by a group of goblin tribesmen.
Not only because the Dog Demon is notorious here, but also because after he came back, the remaining dozen or so goblin wolf knights immediately found their backbone and immediately surrounded him.
