In the eastern part of the hell world, the most famous place in the whole hell is the Skeleton Mountain, which even the unscrupulous demons and monsters are afraid of.

It is a mountain rising from the ground, nearly three thousand meters high, and looks like a giant from a distance. Although this height is not worth mentioning in either the Dark Continent or the Hell World, there are mountains, mountains and seas higher than the Skeleton Mountain.

Gone.

However, the Skeleton Mountain is made up of countless bones piled up. There is not a bit of mud or a stone. Looking at it, they are all the bones of demons. There are countless empty eye holes with drops of dark green dripping out.

The venom and the sharp bone spurs everywhere are also emitting a pale green luster. As long as they touch a little bit, they will immediately become part of this mountain of bones.

Countless resentful spirits are lingering in this mountain of bones, shuttling through the gaps in the countless piles of bones, screaming in pain and wailing. Hundreds of miles away from the mountain of bones, you can see a huge black mass, made of countless twists.

The extremely evil mist composed of resentful spirits shrouded the entire mountain of bones. Dark green threads slowly rose up, binding the mist, forming a huge prison of bones and resentful spirits. Anyone who falls here will bear the consequences.

Endless torture of souls and bones.

On the top of the Skeleton Mountain, there is a huge skull like a hill, with a mouth shaped like a dragon, horns like a devil, and a pair of eye holes that glow with a faint green light, as if it can come back to life at any time, which is terrifying.

This huge skull is not placed flat on the top of the mountain of bones, but is slightly tilted, looking up at the sky. From a distance, the owner of the skull seems to be filled with indescribable sadness, anger and unwillingness.

Inside the skull is a vast and gloomy palace. The faint green fire exudes dim light and illuminates a straight passage leading to the deepest part of the palace that is a thousand meters deep. There is a towering throne.

"Sister Belial!"

Andariel crossed his slender legs. He held a goblet carved from bones and gently swayed the bright red blood inside, showing a leisurely and contented attitude. It has to be said that he has not seen it for a long time.

This demon queen is so relaxed.

She was talking to a mirror not far in front of her.

"I'm working hard, and I'm definitely not sleeping. The Human Alliance is about to be defeated by me." Belial, who was sitting next to the flower petals, rubbed his unconvincing sleepy eyes.

His face was not red and he was out of breath and patted his chest to assure himself.

"Forget it, I knew it would be like this anyway. It would be nice if I could maintain the status quo." Andalil, who was in a good mood, under Belial's surprised gaze, rarely turned into a roaring body, and only stiffly pulled the corners of his mouth.

After a moment, he drank all the blood in the cup in one breath.

"Xiao An'er, you seem to be in a good mood. Could it be that you have captured the savior of mankind?"

"No, but it will be soon."

"Oh?" Beryl tilted her head slightly, as if she couldn't believe it. After all, how big the hell world was, she knew very well that even if the Four Demon Kings were half the rulers there, they wanted to find someone in the vast hell.

It is also a very difficult job for people.

"I have issued orders to all the demon kings in the entire east and west, asking them to pay attention. Unexpectedly, just a short while later, there was good news. Four little guys found a suspicious strange character who looked like a ragdoll bear and fought with each other.

After a battle, we retreated without any chance, and all signs indicate that it is the little bug we are looking for.”

As he said that, the corners of Andalil's mouth curved in a graceful arc. How long has it been since he enjoyed this feeling of everything going smoothly? That feeling of having everything under control and expected is so wonderful.

"Oh! That's great. Then hurry up and capture the little savior of mankind. If he wants to live, this demon king will use all means to torture him to death." Belial licked his lips, showing a rare demon king look.

picture.

"No rush." ​​Andalil raised his index finger and made a hissing gesture on his smiling lips.

"The little bug is not stupid. He probably discovered that we brought it here, so he quickly escaped from the point of emergence. At his speed, two or three days is enough to travel far and wide. There is no need to spend a lot of time.

Go search.”

"Does it mean that Xiao An'er already has an idea?"

"Of course."

"Come and listen, don't whet my appetite."

"Hmph, I'm afraid Sister Belial, you already know what I'm thinking about." Andalil shook his head helplessly and said it anyway.

"It's very simple. Since we know that it was our conspiracy to get here, then of course that little bug wants to avoid our capture. Where should he escape to? Isn't the answer clear at a glance? He must want to escape there.

It’s the territory of these three guys, so we don’t dare to rush in and hunt it down.”

"Not bad, not bad, little An'er, I think it will be like this too." Beryl held his chin and nodded as if pecking rice.

After receiving Belial's recognition, Andariel's mouth curved slightly more.

"That little bug shouldn't be stupid enough to run around. I guess in the past few days, in addition to running for his life, he also spent a lot of time gathering information and knowing his situation."

Saying this, Andariel clicked lightly, and a huge translucent map suddenly appeared beside her. The dense markings inside showed that this was the complete map of the hell world.

"This is where the little bug appears." She tapped somewhere in the east.

"He wants to escape to the territory of those three guys. There are two ways to choose. One is to cross the shortest distance and directly reach the middle. However, the middle is the most dangerous place in the entire hell world. There are too many strong people there, even

Those three guys couldn't completely tame the entire central region."

After a pause, Andalil continued: "So, if the little bug gets such information, then he will most likely take another relatively far but safer route, which is through here.

To the north of the area, it is also the territory of those three guys, but there are relatively fewer strong ones and it is safer. At the same time, the border area there is also an active place for some alliance bugs that sneak in. Because we and

The overt and covert fights between those three guys created a zone of no regard."

Gritting his teeth bitterly, Andalil finally pointed his finger: "Of course, there is another route. That is from the east to the south. Across a long distance to the west. The only advantage of this route is maybe to hit us.

I was caught off guard. But if we want to pass such a long distance, even if we don't use the teleportation array, it will take us more than half a month. There will be countless powerful demon kings entrenched in the middle. I think that little insect should not

He would be so stupid to choose this path, otherwise, I am afraid that without us taking action, he would have fallen on his own in the middle of the road, into the hands of those demon kings."

"Well, the analysis makes sense. So, how are Xiao An'er going to deal with that human being?" Listening carefully, after Andariel finished speaking, Belial nodded and asked in a test-like manner.

"Simple, we can temporarily eliminate the last route that goes through the southeast to the west. Even if that bug is really that stupid to choose this route, the distance is long enough for us to react and rearrange, so we are now

Let’s target the central and northern routes first.”

He continued to move his finger on the map, and finally, Andariel placed a little more emphasis on two places.

"Look here, Sister Beryl, due to the harsh terrain and environmental restrictions, that little bug has to make a detour no matter what. Whether he wants to go to the center or the north, he has to pass through the same place.

From this volcano, through a lava field, and then through a swamp, you will choose different routes depending on your goals. Sister Belial, what do you think?"

"Well... no problem. If it were me, I could only take this route." Beryl affirmed with a smile on his face.

"With Sister Beryl checking everything, I'm 100% sure."

"Then, now that you know what route the other party is going to take, what is Xiao An'er going to do?"

"It couldn't be easier." I don't know what he thought of, but the smile on Andariel's face suddenly turned cruel and ferocious.

"Since the little bug has automatically arrived at our door, of course we have to play a good game to make him fall into despair bit by bit. Only those bones and souls are worthy of being placed on my mountain of bones."

As she spoke, she pointed heavily on the map: "I have already made arrangements. After passing through the swamp, I will choose the point where the road will branch off and set up a dragnet, so that when he thinks he has succeeded in escaping, he will feel great joy.

, driving him into the abyss of despair, I really want to see that twisted and desperate face right away, I really want to! Hahahaha~~~~"

"Wow, little An'er, you are so insidious." Seeing Andariel's wanton and arrogant look smiling up at the sky, it seemed that even the conspiracy devil couldn't stand it, Belial shook his head and said.

"Hmph, this is how you should deal with damn humans."

Andalil was unmoved. He shattered the translucent map displayed next to him with a flick of his finger. He sat down again and raised his thighs. The arm on the armrest of the throne was supporting the side of his face. His expression was cold and majestic, full of emotions.

She looks like a bloody queen.

"I understand, that's all Xiao An'er's plan, right?"

"Sister Beryl, is there anything else you would like to add?"

"have."

"Oh? Come on, tell me."

Andariel sat up slightly and stared at the Demon King in the mirror. She was as confident as a queen. If someone else said such words, she would immediately tear the other person into pieces without saying a word, even if it was the Governor who was also the Demon King.

Riel and Azmodan also had a hard time influencing her decision.

Only Belial, only Belial whose wisdom convinced her, Andariel would put down her queenly attitude, lower her head, and ask for advice seriously and humbly.

"What I want to say is, Xiao An'er's taste is too bad. Can you find another place to live? That's why I don't like to play at Xiao An'er's place."

The lens in the mirror turned and turned into a scene of the entire Skeleton Mountain. Belial's meaning was self-evident.

Andalil: "..."

"How about it, Xiao An'er, are you finally going to seriously consider it? I have a good place to recommend. As long as you nod, I will change it for you immediately."

Seeing that the other party was deep in thought, Beryl thought that the plan was successful. His eyes sparkled, he flapped his butterfly wings and danced happily.

"Like this, and then like this." She kept tapping her little hand, and the image in the mirror changed to a sea of ​​gorgeous flowers, a quiet lakeside, and a green forest. They were all intoxicating scenery.

"That's enough, I'm free to live wherever I want!" Andalil finally couldn't bear it anymore and smashed the mirror into pieces.

"What's wrong with the skeletons? What's tasteful and vulgar? What does it have to do with me? There are only skeletons, and only by seeing these skeletons can I..." Muttering softly to himself, Andariel threw the skull cup in his hand casually. That one

Rows of green flames gradually extinguished, once again shrouding the entire palace in darkness.

"Oops. Xiao An'er's temper is still so rude. Obviously I still have something to say." Looking at the broken mirror in front of his eyes, Belial looked troubled. But the faint smile at the corner of his mouth contradicted it.

"Should I tell Xiao An'er? That little savior has some strange abilities." She tapped her chin, tilted her head and thought cutely, and clapped her hands at the end.

"Yes, let fate choose." With that said, Belial took out a gold coin and threw it up.

"Say the positive, but don't say the negative."

The gold coin spun in circles in mid-air, crossed a beautiful parabola, then fell to the ground, bounced a few times, rolled a few times, and finally got stuck on a small gap and stood upright.

"Oh my, what an unexpected result." Beryl tilted his head in confusion again.

"What should we do? Yes, such a result must be God's will. Little An'er, you can't blame me." With a sweet and crisp chuckle, Belial's figure gradually disappeared into the air, along with her.

The huge flower bed disappeared together.
