During a ritual to summon demons, Aihuas finally recalled memories of his previous life.
This was supposed to be an online game developed and operated by his own company for six years. Now, h...
Chapter 926: A Slave of Three Surnames...
Everything happened just as Aiwass expected.
The negative impact of the demon's arrival on Xingti was not long-lasting - the real disaster only lasted for one night.
The Tail Ring Ceremony was initiated at sunset; and before sunrise the next day, the demons all quietly retreated in unison.
There were no demons to be seen on the streets—all of them were retreating under the orders of the Fallen Angels.
The Fallen Angels found a dark place to house those lower-level demons who were like cannon fodder.
Most of the higher-level demons moved into the royal palace and the mansions of the nobles.
——As for the original owners of these mansions, they now have different outcomes.
Among them, a group of nobles reacted extremely quickly. They quickly surrendered to the Fallen Angels, and largely preserved their power and wealth—the price they paid was that their children, wives, parents, and servants would be randomly selected to become new demons.
If, despite this oppression, they still didn't feel hostility or hatred, they would be accepted into the demon army. While the demons would still occupy their houses, their power would actually increase—because they could now command lower-level demons.
As for those nobles who did not choose to surrender at the first moment... they were arrested immediately.
Although some of them are indeed hostile to the devil and cannot accept bowing to the devil - but in more cases, it is because these bigwigs have become accustomed to their power and status and failed to see their own situation and value at the first time.
They actually tried to bargain with the devil! They even tried to threaten the devil!
How ridiculous.
It was like a person glaring at a bullet fired from a gun barrel, hoping to make it timid and avoid him.
The fate of these foolish nobles was naturally predictable.
However, depending on the demons they provoked, their fates were different—
The more straightforward ones would have them beheaded on the spot or have their essence sucked dry. The more brutal ones would send them to the interrogation room and torture them with a variety of instruments to collect their pain and hatred.
Some idle nightmares use their souls as tools to pass the time - letting them fall into fabricated horrible nightmares, giving them the illusion of escape. Some are alone, and some are in groups of many.
The ugly appearance they showed in that endless nightmare from which they would never wake up, the strong fluctuations of their spirit that was full of hope, unscrupulous, but ultimately fell into despair, were like a dose of sweet wine and intoxicating.
The souls were drained of their strength and brilliance in this intense shock and torture - these ordinary souls, which were originally worthless, were molded into rare and delicious shapes by the suffering created by the devil.
——It’s like making marshmallows out of sugar.
Even Queen Louise, the original regent, surrendered immediately. Her intense desire transformed her into a succubus... This instantly shattered the Red Keep's power.
This situation is different from the one after Hong Xiang's death. Although they are facing a greater crisis this time, not all Moon Children are willing to continue following Louise's path.
——After all, the Son of the Moon has absolute suppressive power over demons.
Normally, it is very difficult for the Son of the Moon to advance.
It wasn't just the Moon Child—the same was true for other transcendents on the path of love. Their talents on the path of love had already determined how far they could go.
Unlike the Path of Devotion and the Path of Wisdom, where one can change one's destiny through personal effort and chance, the limits of one's innate talent on the Path of Love and the Path of Beauty are often fixed. Without the corresponding talent, no matter how hard one tries, it's impossible to break through these limits.
But the Children of the Moon have a special talent... Not only can they improve their talents by preying on demons, but they also have an absolute suppressive power over all the demons' abilities, almost to the point where those of the same power level are ineffective.
The ability can only take effect normally if it has at least one level higher priority than the opponent.
The birth of the Moon Child involved the Serpent Father. This is why the "perfect man" needs the help of the sacred number "8" to reach the perfect "9".
Even before the Hellassar Empire split, the demonologists were almost extinct.
Although part of the reason was that they did not have the Rose Tantra, which prevented them from maintaining their integrity after reaching the fourth level, the main reason was that the hungry Moon Children entered the imperial capital and devoured almost all the demons.
It can be said that the Moon Child is the natural enemy of demons. This restraint comes from the abnormal "appetite" of the Path of Love and the "divine transcendence" brought about by the blood of the Serpent Father.
It is precisely because of this that the Moon Children always look down on Demonologists—not only because of the Red Phase, but also because they are not afraid of Demonologists. Except for the Winter Demon...
That was a higher-ranking demon specifically designed to restrain the Moon Children, and a single one could slay all of Star Antimony's Moon Children except for the first Red Phase. Therefore, after the demon incarnation with the Winter Demon within him died, the Moon Children immediately turned against him... because they were indeed confident at the time.
From the perspective of the Moon Children at that time, the Ziggurat wouldn't move much, the royal family had been completely controlled, the alchemists could be won over by interests, and the demonologists were all a bunch of noobs - without a doubt, the advantage was mine!
Even though the Fallen Angels have arrived in the world, the Moon Children still feel superior and repressive towards the demons...
"The Son of the Moon has absolute suppressive power over demons" - nowadays, in the several countries after the split of Helasar, it is common knowledge that almost everyone knows.
Even Avalon, which restricted extraordinary knowledge, could easily learn this knowledge. Aiwass had taught this knowledge point when he first taught as an assistant teacher.
For the third and fourth energy level Sons of the Moon in the Red Castle, fighting against the tide of lower-level demons below the third energy level is no more difficult than opening a bag of spicy strips.
I'm afraid the only way to die is to be suffocated to death by the endless sliding tackles of the spicy snacks.
To the Moon Child, the higher-level demons are like spicy rabbit heads and canned beef – delicacies that are “a little bit troublesome to chew” but can still be consumed at any time.
This is also the reason why the succubus Emma was so confident that she did not use the Rose Tantra to suppress the succubus in her body - it was because she was confident that she could control the succubus.
And now, the demonic disaster is like opening a can of beef, and the beef inside suddenly squirms and turns into the Alien Queen; or the spicy rabbit head suddenly bounces up and turns into a muscular and fierce rabbit, and a rising dragon punch is followed by the little rabbit's dark infinite break, which is as outrageous.
——Damn spicy strips hit people!
What's even more outrageous is that Queen Louise actually surrendered instantly...
...No, can't you just run away first?
Although we can't defeat the Fallen Angels, can't we just take on these higher-level demons who have been suppressed to the fourth level one by one?
With the help of these endless demons that they can never eat enough of, can't they easily be promoted to the fifth energy level?
Even reaching the sixth energy level is not impossible!
As a result, Louise surrendered on the spot and even degenerated into a succubus, directly disrupting everyone's plans.
Because Louise could at any time make the Fallen Angels realize that "Moon Children can eat demons to become stronger." Louise wouldn't necessarily be in trouble, and might even be rewarded.
But the other children of the moon will be badly harmed by her!
This also caused some of the Moon Children to make cruel threats as they fled in a panic, saying that they would eat her sooner or later.
And Louise didn't indulge them.
She told the Fallen Angels about this directly the next day.
The Fallen Angel immediately ordered the demons to prioritize hunting down these Moon Children at night—to kill them all. But even so, he still didn't take action.
If he had to personally deal with those little mice of the third and fourth energy levels, then why did he create these demons? What was the point of him having these things?
What's wrong with being restrained? What's wrong with being suppressed?
I don't want to hear excuses, just get through it!!
Even if a demon's own abilities are immune, does that mean it can't attack the other party?!
Taking a step back, don't they also have higher-level demons directly transformed from humans? It's not all suppressed, summoned demons... So it's not impossible, do it for me!
…Even though their boss is a despicable person and completely unreasonable, the demons still have no choice but to carry out this capricious order.
