Kurdan had left the Blood Sale Market and took all its servant demons, subordinate bone demons, and barb demons. They built a temporary camp on the edge of the Blood Sale Market, recruiting soldiers and starting to prepare for the attack on the Second World.
After finally making up his mind to do a big battle, Kurdan must do his best. It will exert all the wealth and influence accumulated in the blood seller market and the blood battle battlefield, or convene or buy an army. This includes a vast 40,000 various devil warriors, the same number of inferior demon servants, and about 500 adventurers in another world. If the adventurers had not been unable to recognize the danger and "kurdan" to kill too many of them, Kurdan could have found more adventurers.
"It's still a bit short of it, the quantity is too small." Kurdan grabbed a sticky red jelly food from the plate and put it in his mouth. While licking his fingers, he said to Fitch: "You are also a devil general. Why don't you look for anyone? Do you really want to go by yourself?"
"There are too many people, and I don't have time to distract myself from commanding them. This time I'm on vacation, so I'll have a good time to kill for a while, otherwise my muscles and bones will be loose." Feiqi refused the food that Kurdan touched with his saliva-filled fingers and asked quietly: "Do you think these troops are too small? Have you forgotten where should you focus?"
"Of course I didn't forget, so I felt that there were too few people. Oh, I mean those adventurers from other worlds. They always have strange abilities, and they are not as good as our devils to obey commands and use them to explore the way. Unfortunately, too many adventurers died a few days ago." Kurdan rubbed his fingers and said in a dissatisfaction: "Don't forget, I am just one of the three expedition teams in another world, and the other two are larger, which has attracted more mercenaries. Without enough cannon fodder, it is inconvenient to do anything!"
"Does the three conquests go together?"
"Ah, not. The other two are ready to set off, and they gather in the bronze fortress. Bayer invited powerful devil spellcasters from the depths of hell, opened the door of another world, and directly teleported the army. And I must wait for them to leave before leaving and walk through the Cursed Bone Gate."
"Then let the two of us wish them a good journey together!"
"You look good, is something happening? Or is it going to happen?"
"Oh, you've asked too much. I won't tell you the details, you just need to know it's a good thing." Feiqi continued to answer it with vague words.
The second world's conquest army plan set out the day after tomorrow, and Feiqi only wanted to know this. He entrusted the handover of the siege weapon camp to Kurdan, and claimed that he wanted to see "how effective the previous preparations were." Feiqi knew that only by doing what he had been carrying out a plan and staying busy could Kurdan not be suspicious.
Kurdan still believes that he is in the "big plan" of the Hell Demon King Asmotils, so it connects everything that happens around him with this "big plan". Just as Feiqi said goodbye and was about to leave, his confidant servant Molazmi did not report it, rushed into the tent, and said tremblingly: "Sir, something happened! Something happened in the Bronze Fortress!"
Feichi didn't know what was wrong, but he seized the opportunity and muttered in a low voice: "Has it started?" These four words happened to be heard by Kurdan.
"Don't lose your composure so much. Slowly tell me what happened. You know General Feichi, too. There is nothing that I can't tell him here!" Kurdan said, observing Feichi's expression from the corner of his eyes.
"The undead has flooded again! This time, the two conquest troops were directly covered, and the casualties were even more tragic than the last time." The octopus tentacles under the hem of Lazmi's skirt trembled excitedly: "Sir, they are all collapsed! According to the survivors, the explosion point this time was in the palace of Lord Bayer, and the palace was piled with the corpses accumulated after the victory of the Bayer battles. So the undead suddenly burst out uncontrollably. The dungeon was the first to suffer, and the prisoners had nowhere to escape, and they were converted into ghosts. Then these ghosts gathered their strength to pounce on the conquest army that knew nothing about the situation, and a battle that the undead was destined to win was immediately launched."
"Where is Bayer?" Kurdan asked.
"I don't know, no one saw it. Could it be that it had been killed by the undead?"
Feige waved his hand: "This is impossible. Bayer has some usefulness and will not die here."
"Then how did the undead flooding cause this time? Could it be that mage is back?"
"I just heard some rumors." Lazmi said: "Lord Bayer invited some wise spellcasters. In addition to opening the portal for the conquest army, they also need to study the artifact that caused the undead to flood. At present, neither Bayer nor those spellcasters appeared, and they were indeed in the palace before. So... it is very likely that there was something wrong with their research, which led to the artifact showing its power again."
"Ha...haha! Hahaha!" Kurdan slapped his thigh and laughed: "What went wrong? This problem happened well! The first time it was just his subordinates who caused trouble for it, but now it was his own trouble! Most of the siege troops were Bayer's most hardcore supporters, and now they have become undeads? Hahaha!"
Feich's mouth curled up slightly, drawing a light smile. "Bayer has always adhered to a full-scale defense attitude, but this does not mean that there is no greed in his heart. When this greed is used on the front line, it is not a big problem, but it happens inside the fortress, which will cause terrible consequences - this is also something that was expected."
Kurdan suddenly restrained his smile and leaned forward and asked, "Every devil has weaknesses, what is mine?"
"If you use boating on the sea as a metaphor, you are good at following the fleet and it is no problem to find the right direction, but it is not enough to let you split the waves. Did you think about how to use the vortex of a wreck when you watch others overturn? You should know that the vortex always goes back one side and move the other side forward. Can you seize this opportunity to accelerate?"
The corners of the Deep Demon's eyes twitched, and his brows squeezed into the middle. It raised its arm, looked at Feiqi and then slowly lowered it. Finally, it shook its head and said, "No, I still can't see how to move forward bravely. Feiqi, give me some advice, I will thank you very much."
When the servant Lazmi heard this, he hurriedly lay down on the ground and closed his mouth tightly. A deep-sin demon asked a devil for advice on strategies. This matter is shameless no matter what. Unless... unless this devil has a status that transcends the class represented by the devil species. In the whole hell, being able to have such a status must be the confidant of a great devil. Relying on the trust and power of the devil, the fox can do this. But Kurdan is already a devil in the devil's devil, and only the confidant of the devil himself can suppress it.
There must be a servant. Lazmi followed Kurdan and others but trained his imagination. Feiqi acted in the whole set. He first glanced outside, then lowered his voice and said: "The last time the explosion point of the undead was the Cursed Bone Gate, the radius was two walls, and several areas of the fourth ring of the bronze fortress were suppressed. This time the explosion point was Kurdan's palace, what was the radius? Has it affected the Cursed Bone Gate?"
"Is there any?" Kurdan kicked Lazmi, and the servant demon quickly got up and replied happily: "This time the devil who escaped will be safe after leaving the Third Ring, so the Curse Bone Sect will definitely not be affected."
Feiqi looked like "I had expected this" expression: "Last time Bayer used spells to block the space teleportation in the undead flood zone, but the Cursed Bone Gate can still function normally. This time the Bone Gate was not affected. Even if it was blocked, Bayer could not close the Bone Gate - the premise was that a devil controlled the Bone Gate. In the current bronze fortress, there is enough reason to use the Cursed Bone Gate, and there are enough troops to defend how many devils there are? Kurdan, can't you see clearly?"
The chest of the Deep Demon was undulating violently, and a stream of hot smoke ejected from his nostrils. "The Curse Bone Gate is a very critical key to the first level of hell. It is of great benefit to control it there, but such actions will definitely conflict with Bayer."
"Hmph, use your brain!" Feiqi's face was calm and his emotions were as stable as Mount Tai. "For the second time the undead was flooded, Bayer disappeared, and the bronze fortress would definitely be in chaos. Hell doesn't like chaos. Whoever can maintain order can gain a favor. Originally, the focus of our plan was here, not the opposite (Second World). Why don't you send troops to the bronze fortress in the name of suppressing the undead? Do you think there will be a better chance? If you have the means to manipulate the situation, you can mark some areas and streets into the defense line."
"You mean qu...that place?"
Fitch nodded. Kurdan had already thought of the Maggot Cave and Zarel who was imprisoned nearby. This level of prompt is enough. "Mastering the situation means advancing and attacking and retreating and defending. I am not a prophet, and I am not a prophet, and I don't have the ability to tell you what will happen in the future. But no matter how the waves rise and fall, those who control the situation always have the initiative. Even if you do nothing, what should happen will still happen."
It will happen anyway. This is a meaningless empty word, but after listening to it, you will feel that "if you don't do it, it's equivalent to missing it." People are more afraid of losses than gaining benefits, and the same is true for the devil. The fear of losses often overwhelms the estimate of risks. In order to avoid losses, even if the loss is just an illusion caused by empty words, Kurdan will choose to take action.
Kurdan stood up and nodded vigorously. It asked Lazmi to summon the army to set off. However, when the servant demon turned around and walked out, Kurdan suddenly summoned the long sword of flame and cut the servant demon into two pieces cleanly. Feiqi pressed down the surprise in his throat, lowered his eyebrows and looked at all in peace. The tentacles in Lazmi's lower body crawled towards Feiqi, and he kicked it away gently.
"It is worthy of being the only devil who survives in the undead flood zone, and it is worthy of being a strong man who can kill the most core curse of the Bone Sect. The class of servant demons is still above the Desire Demon, and you see that she was killed by a sword, it is so dull."
Isn't it that I want to be dull? I just kept thinking about the situation in the Bronze Fortress and got distracted! I was surprised just a little slower, and then I was suppressed by my self-control and didn't have time to show up. Feiqi didn't say anything. He was worried that he could not control his voice and leaked information, so he just shrugged his shoulders.
"I will enter the Bronze Fortress and establish two beachhead positions." Kurdan flipped his wrist and the long sword of flame dissipated in the air. "The army is dispatched, and you are now the official general of the devil. Do you want me to find you a few guards? The ability is fine, and your mouth is definitely very strict, so Bilazmi must be much better."
Fitch shook his head with his eyes closed, pointed at his feet, and pointed to the direction of the Bronze Fortress. "Okay, go and do your business first. We are cursing the Bone Gate or the Second World." After Kurdan finished speaking, he strided away from the camp tent and walked towards its army.
It was not until this time that Fei Qi let out a long breath. He took two steps out and suddenly remembered something. The devil's body was very tough and he would not die immediately even if it was cut into two pieces. So he turned back from the door of the camp, came to Lazmi's stiff upper body, and drew out the pit sword with a squeak.
"Don't...don't kill me..." The "corpse" suddenly opened her eyes and begged in a weak voice: "I will..."
Feiqi inserted the pit sword into the head of the servant demon without hesitation, and then put the corpse into the space bag. Because of the soul, living things cannot be put into the space bag, and those who can be put into it can be considered dead. Regardless of whether the servant demon is Kurdan's mistake in lying here to pretend to be dead, or it deliberately arranged it to observe whether Feiqi has another side, now this hidden danger has been solved.
After leaving, Feiqi returned to the Styx and threw the servant demon's body into it. Throwing it into the Styx was cleaner and thorough than throwing it into the maggot hole. No one knew about his relaxed sigh, so that he could return to the mortal world with peace of mind. The situation in hell began to chaotic, and the Demon Refining of the Deep has entered the field, and the space for the Demon to play has disappeared, even if Feiqi, who is a fox and a tiger power...
If you follow Kuldan now, whether you go to the Second World or play a role in the Bronze Fortress, there is a danger of adding to the snake. "The devil will definitely be attacked by the War Knights and others, and even the Creator's Old Lord will end up in person. Although Thunder Bai said that the Creator's Old Lord has been smashed into pieces by the Goddess of Truth, considering that the Creator's Old Lord is in his own home field and his ability is higher than the Goddess, its fragments should be even more powerful. Well... It's best to watch it first. When will Kuldan establish a stable beachhead and when will I go again? This is the most suitable."
The second undead flooding was an unexpected surprise, but if he didn't leave hell quickly and was caught by military orders again, it would turn into a complete tragedy. Although he left the front line and became a devil general, it was not a matter of Bayer's words to deprive this title?
"The Desire Demon is just a middle-level devil, and is still a class that is directly controlled and played by the top leaders. If you want to get rid of this situation, you must become a stronger devil. It is best to climb directly to the top." Feiqi already has the body fragments of the heart-turning demon in his hand, and the favorable feeling of hell carried in the evil spirit light exceeds that of the Deep Demon. According to the records in the "Painting Book", these favorable feeling of hell is enough, and Feiqi also purchased all the materials needed for the ritual from the Styx Shipping.
"But the most troublesome part is still unsolvable. Where can I find divine creatures? It would be great if the Creator had angels, I wouldn't mind killing that guy's subordinate angel. But is the Creator a kind god? If not, would I still go to Paradise Mountain? Haha, why does it feel like it's the same as committing death?"
Asmotils' initial idea was to let the devil who fell from angels seduce more angels, thereby collecting good divine power to strengthen himself. It is estimated that the Demon King also referred to the pyramid scheme model, thinking that angels always have relatives and friends, and it would be very convenient for slaughtering their own people, so he designed this way. But who can Fitch cheat? He also knows angels and knows where the kingdom of the kind god is, but he will never do such things as cheating their own people.
"Wait for the opportunity, don't worry. Yongli Continent is not good, but there will always be good gods in other worlds."
Just as the devil and the demon will always fight, neither kind nor evil can completely kill the other. In Feiqi's opinion, killing one on the same side is a very balanced business.
It was already dawn when I returned to Shani. Feiqi took out the gold and silver brought from the Styx under the bright sunshine. "At present, you can take care of the money first and take time to find the Countess to ask for a housekeeper. It is best to ask Eddie what she meant first, to see if she wanted to do this, or if there were any recommended candidates."
"Well, I understand, I can't make Eddie feel that we have neglected her." Shani looked at the more and more brick hills that gradually piled up to her waist, and asked in a worried tone: "Feich, what did you do in hell to make so much money? Isn't it a particularly evil thing?"
"I took advantage of the undead's chaos in the city of hell and ransacked the devil's shop. This is indeed not a matter of justice, but at least it has hit evil." Feiqi said, holding Shani's hand, "These money is used to start the Knights of the Hell, and it can also be used to make the strategic teleportation array operate correctly and start to make profits. Then we will use the money from the array to make profits. Is the remaining money used to help the poor, get rid of poverty, and invest in medical care and education?"
"I think it's great for you to arrange this." Shani looked at the sky and said, "Don't get the money out first, hurry up and pack up and change your clothes. You're going to the competitive conference today!"
"Can my clothes fit wings? Today I have to use black and white wings to deal with emergencies."
"Don't worry, I have prepared multiple sets of all the clothes. And after I put my wings together, my waistline is exactly the same as when you have no wings, and no one will doubt it."
"I always think you're laughing at me, but I have no evidence."
The competitive conference to celebrate the king's ascension to the throne was much more lively than the church's selection conference, and it was postponed for two weeks, allowing more knights to arrive in the capital. In order to welcome this conference, Andrew made an exception and allowed members of the noble federation to bring guards into the city according to their titles, and then uniformly handed over to Pierce, the chief officer of the city guard, to maintain order. The king's nobles were obliged to provide a certain number of signs every year. The king was not prepared to start a war in the near future, so he asked them to fulfill their obligations by providing guards.
The guards in the city were still wearing the armor of the nobles' logo of their own, but they only unified the cloak. The flag of the United Kingdom of Hoya was a tower that fired lightning outward, which had some inheritance with the coastal lighthouse logo of the Grand Duke of Aria in the past, but the new tower contained the Hall family's "H" character, which replaced the swift of Aria.
The flag with the new logo fills every place of vision, and no one will forget the meaning of this flag. And thanks to Andrew's generosity and Baron Good's strong support, this celebration can make everyone eat well and have enough entertainment programs, so the flag is already associated with happiness. However, some entertainment activities are not noble, just think of Shanie as a prostitute when she entered the city. Feige sat in the gorgeous carriage prepared for the members of the inner court, walking on the widest and flat main street, equipped with the most guards on both sides, everything is well organized and gorgeous and cheerful. There must be no side of the city's dilapidated, chaotic and depraved. Feige was just curious, did Andrew know which side exist?
As a member of the inner court, it would be inappropriate to go out with the flag of "Hell Knights". Feiqi asked Sam to place the flag outside the arena and put together with all the flags carried by participating knights. Among the hundreds of flags, only the flag of the Hell Knights is always open and fluttering, and can also shine during the day and shine at night, and it cannot be avoided without attracting attention.
Andrew made a handsome appearance wearing a crown on his head and waved to the crowd, but the iron golem of the shield guard behind him was actually more eye-catching. The crowd kept making exclamations and praise, and even made the cheers of "Long Live the King" less neat, which was a bit embarrassing.
Shani approached Feiqi and whispered: "Looking at His Majesty's expression, I don't seem to like the commotion caused by golems!"
"He had to do this. On the one hand, his own safety needs absolute protection. On the other hand, Carroll is pregnant and needs strong guards to stay by his side. Don't think that Andrew controls the golem. If something really happens, he will definitely order the golem to protect Carroll, and then draw his sword to fight." Feiqi followed everyone to salute His Majesty, and then sat down and said to Shani: "Let the people see the golem, knowing that His Majesty the King also has such strong combat power, which can also increase people's confidence in resisting monsters in the Second World. But how many knights have enough wisdom and vision to see their future?"
"What future?" Shani asked.
