A Pit Fiend commander who had just escaped from Bilel's "Death Tumble" through his spell-like ability - Advanced Teleportation, roared at his subordinates who had suffered heavy losses.

In fact, there was no need for him to remind them. When they saw such a terrifying super-giant monster rushing towards them, most of the demons with teleportation abilities and who reacted quickly chose to cast magic and run away at the first moment.

After all, they are not called the best "strategic retreat" race in the universe for nothing.

In fact, the devil has two very obvious characteristics when fighting or even at war.

First, these guys would never show mercy, nor would they deliberately play with their prey like demons when they have the upper hand. Instead, they would do their best to annihilate the enemy from the very beginning.

Second, if after giving his all at the beginning he finds that the opponent is stronger than expected, then the devil will choose "strategic retreat" without hesitation, without the slightest hesitation.

Unless their immediate superior issues a death order, requiring them to hold back the enemy at all costs and not retreat a single step.

The most important thing is that as long as the devils successfully surpass the level of inferior devils and imps to become hooked devils, they will gain the spell-like ability of [Advanced Teleportation (only for themselves)] that can be cast unlimitedly every day.

Therefore, every mid-level and high-level devil can quickly enter the battlefield and launch a surprise attack by repeatedly teleporting in a short period of time, and then retreat before the opponent can react.

A skilled demon commander would make full use of this, first ordering a large number of the lowest-level cannon fodder demons and various undead creatures to stand in front, while dividing his mid- and high-level demons into different batches, creating chaos by repeatedly cutting in and launching surprise attacks.

As long as the enemy's formation and command system are out of sync, they will immediately take action to seize the weakness and beat the enemy to death with a series of combined punches.

In the bloody battle, the devils were able to pin down demons that were several times or even dozens of times their own number with very few troops. This was due to their superb tactics, the army's strong discipline and unparalleled execution capabilities.

Although mid-level and high-level demons can cast the spell-like ability of [Advanced Teleportation] at will, their chaotic nature determines that they are unable to execute such sophisticated tactics.

It is estimated that after completing the teleportation and cutting in, it won't take long for the demon to get so engrossed in killing that it will forget about retreating.

As a result, the surprise retreat turned into a suicide charge, with their own losses far greater than those inflicted on the enemy.

Therefore, what the demons are best at is to take advantage of their overwhelming numerical advantage and the uncertain combat effectiveness of each individual. With a wave of their hands, the entire army will attack and fight each other.

As the middle and high-level demons fled the center of the battlefield, the inferior demons, imps, undead creatures, various construct creatures, half-blood tieflings and other enslaved cannon fodder who had no teleportation ability were in big trouble.

Even though the little devils cast invisibility spells one after another, it was completely useless in front of the ever-expanding size of Bilel.

Wherever he crushed, not to mention living things, even a large piece of magma would be swallowed up.

Moreover, the eyes at the end of the tentacles seem to have a natural anti-invisibility function.

Countless little devils, still invisible, were captured by tentacles made of a mixture of flesh, bones and metal, and then stuffed into those huge mouths and crushed, making them scream in pain and miserably.

As for the inferior demons who had no consciousness in the first place and were just blindly following orders, they were even more miserable. Most of them died within a few minutes.

There is no doubt that in the process of continuous perfection, Bilel gained an ability that other Phyrexian creations did not have, that is, endless devouring.

Perhaps it was because of his extreme resistance to the pain caused by the erosion of his mind by the oil, or perhaps it was the sin and corruption that corresponded to the only form of the great devil.

In short, the more painful he was, the more he wanted to vent it, which led to this unique form.

Moreover, Zuo Si could clearly feel that as more and more matter and energy were swallowed, the oil engine being formed inside it became increasingly huge.

It even exceeds the total number of all the judges in the New Phyrexia forces, including Ellenon.

In this state, Bilel was like an ultimate stitched life form.

The brains and souls of a large number of demons are integrated into it in a bizarre way, and under the control of the central controller, they control one or several tentacles in a relatively independent form.

The spells and attacks that kept exploding on the surface of the huge oval body could at best damage or destroy one or several terminal control units, and had no effect on the core hidden inside.

Most importantly, the Shuo Oil will continue to be repaired, transformed, upgraded, and iterated, allowing it to continue to evolve in battle.

At present, some spell-like abilities obtained by devouring high-level demons can allow the tentacles at the end to open portals and directly cross the distance in space to attack the hellish demons, snake demons and horned demon commanders hiding in the distance.

Not only that, a structure similar to a processing workshop has formed in his body, which continuously produces some strange constructs with mouths and tentacles like his clones and appearance like mutant beholders.

The moment these guys are released, they will use their own anti-gravity flight and magic teleportation to suddenly flash to where the enemies are relatively densely populated to launch attacks.

Although they look small and exquisite compared to Bilaier's real body.

But in fact, the diameter of each one is more than thirty to fifty meters, and the large ones may exceed one hundred meters.

As long as they successfully devour enough creatures, these guys will flash back instantly and transfer the energy and matter obtained from decomposition to the mother body.

"Damn it! Can anyone tell me what this thing is? Why have I never heard of something like this on the fourth floor before?"

Seeing the heavy losses suffered by the devil army under his command, with the entire vanguard almost wiped out before reaching their destination, Viscount Mamman finally could not bear it any longer and questioned several of his most capable devil dukes in a harsh voice.

Unfortunately, no one could answer his question.

Even the chief intelligence officer chose to keep his mouth shut and lower his head, not daring to look into those snake-like eyes.

After all, they spend so many resources every year to infiltrate and plant spies in the fourth level. Logically speaking, there shouldn't be any secrets in the entire level.

But this huge monster in front of them, whose origin was unknown, was like a loud slap in the face of all the senior executives present.

What's worse is that they have no way to deal with this behemoth. They tried many times to control it or even destroy it completely, but failed in the end.

Even when hundreds of high-level devils gathered together to perform a magic ritual that summoned a huge flaming meteorite from the sky, it only flattened the huge oval body a little.

To be precise, at the moment the meteorite hit, an invisible red energy protective field suddenly emerged, followed by a large number of tentacles gathering together to form an amazing buffer, successfully deflecting most of the damage into the river of fire next to it.

You don't need to ask to know that what Bilel just used was the famous [Anti-Color Protection Ring], a unique spell that can make oneself completely immune to certain energy damage.

Since he is a devil, he is naturally closer to red mana. He has also devoured so many devils with the same red mana attributes, so it is completely reasonable that he eventually awakened the [Anti-Red Protection Ring].

In contrast, Zuo Si himself is better at using the three-color protection of anti-black, red, and blue.

On the one hand, these three colors are what the old dragon Nicol Bolas is good at, so he puts much more effort and energy in this area than on the other two colors of mana.

On the other hand, he is indeed more proficient in and frequently uses the necromancy magic, which symbolizes the black color, and other magic related to decay and withering, as well as the evocation magic that is full of destructive power, as well as the control, change and mind charm spells.

With the emergence of the [Anti-Red Protection Ring], the fire magic that the devils were most proud of completely lost its effect.

If one wanted to inflict damage to Bilel, he would have to charge forward and risk being captured and devoured in close combat.

And this is obviously tantamount to committing suicide.

“My Lord, I think that no matter what that monster is, our plan has been exposed and there is no way to move forward.

It would be better to retreat to the third level before anyone discovers us.

At least this can reduce losses and avoid being caught by other lords and taking advantage of the situation to cause trouble.

Most importantly, we have no idea how His Majesty Asmodeus would react to such an overstepping of boundaries."

A devil duke loyal to Mammon gave cautious advice.

从语气和反应不难看出，他其实并不支持这种军事和政治上的双重冒险。

毕竟第三层面现在面临的局势不容乐观，而且还没有任何可靠的盟友。

贸然暴露在所有魔鬼的视线之下只会引发地狱两大政治集团的联合绞杀。

“撤退？

那我跟毕莱尔达成的合作怎么办？ 要知道我在大清洗的时候已经背弃了一次盟约！ 如果再有第二次，整个地狱中就再也不会有任何人愿意与我成为盟友。”

马曼子爵吐着蛇一样的信子厉声质问。

由于他所代表的邪恶堕落面是贪婪，因此经常会为了保护自己的利益或是夺取他人的利益，做出许多不那么符合“守序”倾向的事情。

最直接的表现就是第三层面魔鬼对于财富永无止境的追逐。

在其他层面大部分的魔鬼眼中，像黄金、白银、宝石这样在物质世界相当具有价值的东西，仅仅是为了实现某个目的、引诱凡人签署更多出卖灵魂契约的工具。

假如顺手的话，他们并不介意多搜集一些以备不时之需，但绝对不会将其摆到与灵魂同等重要的位置。

但凡发现夺取财富和宝藏可能会引来过于危险的敌人，亦或是威胁到其他更重要的计划，魔鬼们会毫不犹豫的选择放弃。

毕竟在地狱之中，只有灵魂才是真正有价值的硬通货币，并且只要太初契约还在生效就永远永远也不会发生通货膨胀与贬值。

可马曼子爵和他的手下在这方面的做法却截然相反，偶尔还会发生舍命不舍财的情况，经常被其他层面的魔鬼耻笑。

正是这种贪婪的本性让马曼经常摇摆不定，根本没有所谓的固定立场，通常是谁的好处给的多就倒向哪一边。

这要是换成深渊恶魔自然是没什么可指责的。

可问题是他所在的地方地狱，打交道的对象是极致守序的魔鬼。

没有固定的政治主张、缺乏连贯的外交策略，再加上摇摆不定被利益引诱驱使的性格，这要是不遭到鄙视和唾弃才怪呢。

尽管在场不少手握实权的大魔鬼想要吐槽自家领主，但话到嘴边还是都忍住了。

毕竟只要马曼还一天是第三层面的领主，他们就得继续忍受这个反复无常的主宰，否则便会受到打压乃至降级。

正当一众高层沉默不语的时候，一名全身上下闪烁着金属般白色光芒的六翼身影突然出现在火焰和岩浆沸腾的河流之上。

恐虐天使扎瑞尔！ 马曼差不多一眼就认出了这个当初把整个地狱搅得一团糟的女疯子。

要知道对方从第一层阿弗纳斯的青铜堡垒地下深处离开，加入第九层面成为一名附属领主的事情，对于其他层面领主来说并不是什么秘密。

甚至包括他在内的部分领主还在等着看左思出丑。

经过这么多年的观察，整个巴托地狱都知道“战争之女”扎瑞尔是个不折不扣的神经病，就连阿斯摩蒂尔斯都没办法将其彻底降服，反而隔三差五的就搞事情，一搞就是惊天动地的大事情。

这是任何一个上位者都无法容忍的。

马曼猜测，阿斯摩蒂尔斯让拜尔取代扎瑞尔，就是被她搞得实在头大，受不了那种无法无天的癫狂性格。

所以许多层面领主都觉得，扎瑞尔在成为左思的下属之后肯定会积蓄实力找机会造反夺权。

只可惜，过了这么久并没有任何外界期待的消息传来。

更令无数魔鬼惊掉眼球的是，第九层面竟然可以在领主经常不在的情况下维持统治稳定。

不管是魅魔女王美坎修特，还是恐虐天使扎瑞尔，都老老实实履行着自己的职责，丝毫没有半点想要取而代之的意思。

这简直违反了魔鬼对于权力疯狂痴迷的天性。

就在马曼因为老对头的出现开始胡思乱想的功夫，扎瑞尔已经凭借身后那巨大的烁油喷气引擎越过翻滚的火焰长河，一拳打碎了上前想要阻拦的链魔脑袋，脸上挂着残忍与嗜血的表情打了声招呼。

“好久不见，亲爱的马曼，你还是跟以前一样永远都是个只会偷偷摸摸行动的卑鄙小人。”

“扎瑞尔！你怎么会出现在这里？”

马曼显然没有因为区区一点冒犯和侮辱就动怒。

因为对于眼前这个女疯子来说，这已经算是相当克制跟礼貌的言词了。

当初在大清算行动中率兵驰援第二层面的时候，对方骂的可比现在难听多了。

扎瑞尔则甩了甩金属拳头上沾染的脑浆，用一种居高临下的傲慢语气说道：“我来这里是为了提醒你，你现在的行为已经越界了。

按照地狱的法律和规矩，一个层面领主在未经允许邀请和允许的情况下擅自进入另外一位层面领主的地盘可是大忌。

猜猜看，要是这件事情被捅到阿斯摩蒂尔斯面前，你的下场会是什么？ 我敢保证他虽然不太可能剥夺你的领主身份，但绝对会给予足够严厉的惩罚。

还记得第五层领主莱维思图斯是怎么遭到冰封的吗？

记得第七层领主巴尔泽布大公是如何失去他那引以为傲的英俊堕天使容貌变成一个丑陋恶心的蛞蝓吗？ 虽然我觉得现在的你已经够丑陋了，但阿斯摩蒂尔斯肯定应该还可以把你变得更丑。”

“所以你是来警告我的？

代表谁？ 阿斯摩蒂尔斯？

还是你那位名义上的领主索斯？ 或者说第四层面爆发的权力争夺就是他一手策划的？

更何况你怎么知道我没有受到邀请！ 我之所以出现在这里就是获得了第四层面领主菲尔娜的许可前来帮忙平息叛乱，不信的话可以去问她的父亲毕莱尔大公。”

马曼一边尝试着狡辩，一边不断用眼角余光巡视四周，试图找到隐藏在周围准备伏击自己的魔鬼军团。

看着对方这幅死鸭子嘴硬的架势，扎瑞尔只是轻蔑的笑了，非常干脆的回答道：“我所代表和效忠的主人永远只有一个。

那就是赐予我新生的创造者和父亲——索斯。

而且那个正在屠杀和吞噬你手下军队的大家伙就是毕莱尔。

猜猜看，他现在还能为你证明行动的合法性么？

眼下，第四层面的权力斗争已经彻底结束，菲尔娜赢得了最后的胜利。

所以你的政治投机从一开始就失败了，而且从始至终都没有半点获胜的希望。

现在这场权力的游戏已经结束。

你唯一能做的就是立刻滚回去，否则将引发第三层面和第四层面的全面战争。

搞不好其他领主也会被牵扯进来，进而引发第二次大清算。”

毫无疑问，扎瑞尔的这番话瞬间让马曼的心沉入了谷底，下意识转过身盯着远处那个扔就在肆无忌惮吞噬魔鬼军团的庞然大物。

更令他感到无法相信的是，向来喜欢用拳头和暴力说话的扎瑞尔，竟然可以如此的思维清晰且理智的发出劝告。

尤其是对方浑身上下洋溢的神力，简直就像是获得了神职的正牌神明。

虽然强大的魔鬼和深渊领主成为神并不是什么新鲜事。

在上古时代，他们中有很多都是名副其实的正牌神明。

但随着时间的推移，以及宇宙中信仰体系的完善，想要做到这一点难度越来越高。

一些曾经是神的魔鬼和恶魔都失去了神明的身份，转而成为各种各样的类神力。

现如今，马曼有些搞不明白扎瑞尔的状态，以对方究竟掌握着怎样的底牌，居然敢独自一人出现在自己的面前。

沉默了一两分钟之后，他这才指着不远处早已变得面目全非无法辨认的毕莱尔问：“他变成这个样子是你和索斯做的？ 格莱西雅召集军队在边境摆出一副随时要进攻的架势，就是为了故意制造紧张气氛把其他领主的注意力吸引过去？

然后你们再暗中收买阿布里莫克要塞的尖刺魔指挥官喀兹拉，让他先假意站队毕莱尔，再利用双方开战之后空挡发动背刺？ 如此一来在里应外合之下，菲尔娜就能轻松夺去第四层面的统治权。

真是好算计呢。

It seems that everyone has underestimated this young crown prince of hell.

Should I say that you are worthy of being valued by Asmodeus?"

When saying this, Maman's eyes revealed a strong fear.

With the help of the intelligence sent back by his spies and his own analysis, he almost reconstructed the entire incident.

I finally understood why, when Bilel sent out a distress signal at the last moment, he howled in pain and despair like a wild beast, and it was so crazy and urgent.

In this series of actions, the other party successfully seized the biggest weakness in Bilaier's character, that is, the arrogance and conceit engraved in his bones, and then used it as a breakthrough to exploit it.

The most terrifying thing is that Zuo Si doesn’t look like a novice who is participating in this kind of game for the first time.

Instead, he was like an old fox, accurately predicting the possible reactions of the lords at each level, and ensuring that his plans would not be interfered with by any party through mutual checks and balances.

If he had not reached a secret agreement with Bilel in private, Mammon was sure that he would now be like the other lords, staring at Gracia's legions, and would not realize that he had been fooled until the dust settled on the fourth floor.

"You already know the answer, don't you? Now choose.

Should I retreat obediently or continue to go further and further down this wrong path.

Although I personally hope that you will choose to fight to the end.

As the last word came out of his mouth, Zariel raised the magic chainsaw in his hand, which was shining coldly and spinning at high speed, and grinned with a crazy and bloodthirsty smile.

As a madman who lives purely for fighting and war, her only meaning in life is to reap lives and spread terror.

Even when facing thousands of devil armies alone, he was not afraid at all. Instead, he was extremely excited.

If this situation happened to a devil, he would have started fighting without even saying a word.

But demons are lawful and rational creatures, and rarely let their emotions interfere with their impulsive decisions.

What's more, Maman is a typical greedy person who is only interested in profit and will never do anything that he cannot benefit from.

So after thinking for a moment, he announced very straightforwardly: "Okay, you win this time, I will withdraw my troops immediately.

But that huge monster, shouldn't you control it a little bit? It is madly chasing and slaughtering my army.

With it here, even if I wanted to order a retreat, I couldn't do it quickly."

"Can!"

Zariel agreed without even thinking about it.

She put away the chainsaw and hung it on the huge weapon rack behind her, then raised her hand and made a grasping motion in the direction of Bilaier.

The next second...

boom!!!!!!

The huge oil engine under the latter's body was instantly ignited and it quickly flew into the air. The clone that was madly harvesting lives also returned to the mother body and flew towards this side at an extremely fast speed.

Seeing the terrifying black shadow growing bigger and closer overhead, Maman and his men immediately retreated to a safe distance.

There was a loud bang immediately afterwards, and the fragile ground beneath his feet was smashed through by the landing of Biler. Countless flames and magma gushed out from the ground, forming a terrible column of fire that shot straight into the sky.

Thanks to the effect of the [Anti-Red Protection Ring], this guy did not suffer even the slightest harm. Instead, he devoured the red energy to his heart's content and continued to forge the increasingly powerful sparkling oil engine in his body.

At this moment, the inside of his oval body has become an ultra-high temperature reactor, and the sparkling oil is constantly rotating around the reactor, continuously inputting various materials and energy into it for reaction, shaping various alloys for different uses.

But even so, the great devil still did not completely transform. Instead, he retained the last bit of rationality and roared in a deafening voice: "Kill me! Kill me quickly! I would rather die than become a puppet and a monster!"

"Sorry, this is not up to you.

Father just said that you are quite valuable for research.

After all, Shuoyou successfully transformed so many big demons.

But your case is the first case of uncontrollable mutation.

Don't worry, in a few hours at most you will change your mind and fully embrace the glorious evolution and rebirth.

This is a great gift, as you will soon understand."

Zariel gently patted the other's huge oval body, pursing his lips with a meaningful expression.

Just as she said, the Ninth Level had already infected and transformed the Great Devil more than once.

Most of them were devil dukes who were exiled by Asmodeus, and were later recruited back after the Lord of Hell realized that they could be reused.

However, what awaits them is not being reused, but being thrown into the sparkling oil sea on the ninth level to be soaked and dissolved.

The final destination is to be sent to the side of the first-level lord Bayer or the Eight Demon Generals, leading the devil army to expand the territory and transform the chaotic land of the abyss into an orderly land.

Usually, when Zuo Si is not around, Zariel is responsible for contacting Martinot and carrying out this work.

So she had seen with her own eyes how several devil dukes were infected by the sparkling oil little by little, and what their final appearances were.

"No!!!! I curse you!"

Bilel screamed and yelled like a madman, trying to control his body and tentacles to kill the vicious enemy before him.

Unfortunately, Zariel had much more control over the Spark Oil than he does now.

The moment those tentacles approach the former with great force, they will immediately cease to move like tamed pets.

Bilair's shouting was undoubtedly heard by Viscount Mammon who was retreating. He then confirmed that the huge and twisted monster was his ally, and a barely perceptible tension flashed in his eyes.

Because he had no idea what means the other party had used to turn a unique big devil into what it is now, and he didn't know whether the same means would be effective on him.

As the saying goes, fear comes from the unknown.

The more the unknown may bring about a huge threat, the more it can arouse fear in one's heart, causing a person to fall into a state of constant fear and anxiety and unable to extricate himself.

Maman has decided that as soon as he returns to his lair, he will immediately start to intensify his infiltration efforts into the ninth level, and try to quickly find out what kind of powerful weapons Zuo Si and Zariel have hidden in their hands.

In contrast, Zariel seemed much calmer. He stayed where he was and waited for Bilel to be completely transformed. Then he took him back to the ninth level and began to disassemble and study him.

At the same time, on the other side, after purging her father's remnants and diehards and firmly sitting on the position of lord of the fourth level, Philna finally announced the news to the public, and defined Bilaier as a sinner who started a rebellion, using this as an excuse to launch a large-scale purge.

Hundreds of mid- and high-level devils were cleared out of the ruling class, and those confidants who performed well in this operation were promoted without exception and successfully took up the important positions they had always dreamed of.

Without a doubt, this is a typical example of one person's success bringing prosperity to everyone around him.

Anyone who takes the right side in the power struggle reaps unimaginable rewards.

And as Philna began to take power, the fourth level gradually showed some completely different ways of doing things.

She even did not hide her close relationship with Gracia, and she praised Zuo Si in public more than once as the most masculine devil in the entire Baator Hell, who made her fascinated and infatuated.

This is basically the equivalent of pursuing and expressing love.

But unfortunately, Zuo Si's reaction to this was always to ignore and not respond, as if he hadn't heard anything.

Because after beautifully completing the interference with the fourth level, he has achieved the goal of intimidating the lords of other levels. Now he is sitting in Malshem Castle on the tenth level, chatting happily with the Lord of Hell face to face at the table.

"My young friend, the ability, skill, and wisdom you have demonstrated this time are truly impressive.

I believe that after this lesson, lords at other levels will never dare to easily provoke or test your bottom line again.

Gracia can also learn enough knowledge and experience from it, as well as the bottom line that needs to be followed in the power struggle in hell.

The most important thing is that after this incident, those lords have become much more obedient.

Even Baalzebub, who has always wanted to plot to overthrow my rule, now has to focus some of his attention on you.

At least he would not dare to take any substantive action until he understands your position.

After all, you and I, together with Gracia and Fierna, account for more than 70% of the power of the entire Baator Hell."

As he spoke, an unfathomable smile appeared on the face of the Lord of Hell. He raised the glass full of wine to gesture, then tilted his head back and drank it all in one gulp.

It can be seen that he was in a very good mood, with the corners of his mouth always upturned, giving people a playful and teasing feeling.

If nothing unexpected happens, he would have seen all the little moves between the lords of various levels of hell.

It’s just that Asmodeus is a very cunning person, and he rarely intervenes directly unless the situation is on the verge of getting out of control.

Zuo Si took a sip of hot tea and responded with a smile: "You are too kind, I just did a trivial thing, it's no big deal.

What's more, Grand Duke Biler is no longer a level lord, so dealing with him is much easier than many people imagine.

If it were a real lord who had 100% control over the distribution of divine energy on a certain level, I'm afraid I would have to put in some effort.

At least the speed of infection by the oil will be greatly curbed."

"Oh? Can the holy energy squeezed out from the soul suppress the infection of the sparkling oil?"

Asmodeus' eyes lit up slightly and he instantly became interested.

To be precise, he has always been paying attention to Shuoyou, a nearly perfect tool, and has allocated certain resources to it.

A large number of the inferior demons that emerged from the hatching pits were sent to the subsidiary layers of the ninth floor for completion. Now, a mechanical devil army with terrifying numbers and powerful strength has been created.

Zuo Si nodded slightly: "Yes. If you continue to take in a large amount of divine energy, then the oil will slow down its control over the body and mind because it has to decompose and devour the energy.

Bilaier relied on the power of energy distribution that he controlled to survive for a long time.

Until Philna completely completes her domination of the fourth level and cuts it off at the source.

Otherwise, he might have lasted weeks, months, or even years.

But the good thing is that after absorbing enough energy, the transformation of the Shuo Oil will make it stronger than the average big devil.

My people have already begun to dismantle, study, and analyze Bilel's huge body.

Eventually, this may be used as a blueprint to create a giant war machine hive that can multiply infinitely and create clones."

“That sounds good.

The more things like this that can increase overall strength and war potential, the better.

In addition, the world you recently connected to has also begun to send thousands of souls to hell.

If it is convenient, please make full use of the abilities of the planeswalker to travel through different time and space, and establish connections with as many worlds with large populations as possible.

With a new round of bloody battles about to break out, we need more souls than ever.

You don't have to worry about the expenses of bribing the local ruling class and luring them into corruption.

I have prepared enough platinum, gold and silver, as well as some other valuable gems and magic items.

All you have to do is spend all this wealth to exchange for the most precious soul."

After saying this, Asmodeus raised his hand and showed the treasures from one of his treasure houses.

It has to be said that even Zuo Si, who had already achieved financial freedom, couldn't help but reveal an expression of surprise when looking at the thousands and thousands of precious metal ingots piled together emitting golden or silver light, as well as the mountains of gems.

Although he had long known that as the place where the lawful evil of the entire universe gathered, the devils were spread across countless material planes and outer planes. Just by collecting a little while doing business, the accumulation over thousands of years was definitely not something that mortals could imagine.

Just one of the Lord of Hell's treasure troves is enough to make one feel suffocated.

Not to mention the gold bars neatly piled up on the outermost layer of the warehouse that stretched as far as the eye could see, even the number of magic items easily exceeded the "tens of millions" level.

As for how many of them were made by the devils themselves, and how many were picked up by mercenaries who died in the bloody battle, it is unknown.

"Your wealth is beyond my imagination."

Zuo Si couldn't help but sigh softly.

As someone who had visited the treasury of Tiamat, the dragon goddess, he had thought that the greedy goddess was rich enough.

But who would have known that compared with the Lord of Hell in front of him, he was just a poor beggar.

How does that sentence go?

If you compare yourself to others, you will die; if you compare goods, you will be thrown away.

No wonder Tiamat is willing to be the "watchdog of hell".

Most likely, he was unable to walk after learning about the huge wealth that Asmodeus possessed, and his mind was full of thoughts about how to get all this wealth into his own hands, even if it was just a little bit.

"Hahahaha! These useless things are just accessories brought by a long life. There is nothing to envy.

It is totally worthless compared to the soul that can bring practical benefits.

With your ability, it may only take you about a hundred years to easily accumulate the same amount of wealth.

And I prepared these things especially for you.

It doesn't matter how you want to use it.

Anyway, I just want souls, endless souls."

Asmodeus laughed and expressed his attitude.

platinum?

gold?

silver?

Although these broken things are not completely worthless in hell, no real devil would take them seriously. After handling them, they would immediately find ways to spend them and exchange them for contracts to sell their souls.

In comparison, gems, magic items, and metals can serve as a strategic reserve, but they are still not comparable to souls.

"Aren't you afraid that I might embezzle money?"

Zuo Si asked in a half-joking tone.

Asmodeus replied in a joking tone: "If you don't learn how to embezzle and enrich yourself, you are not a qualified devil.

The more you embezzle, the more you will move towards the side of lawful evil and win the favor of the will of the Hell plane. I am so happy.

The most important thing is, I don’t care how much you embezzle, as long as the number of souls you get in the end is satisfactory.

In fact, the funding I gave you last time has now paid off and you’ve made a lot of money.

Although I don't know exactly what you did in that world, at least hundreds of thousands of souls of non-human intelligent creatures have poured into hell."

"Hundreds of thousands of souls of non-human intelligent creatures?"

The corner of Zuo Si's mouth twitched slightly, and he immediately thought of what King Sean VII had said when they parted last time.

Obviously, no one knew whether these were orcs, dragonmen, or monsters like ogres or goblins. They were most likely slaughtered by the half-liches to upgrade the mind flayer's main brain.

He was also kind enough to help the summoned devil, allowing the latter to complete the signing of the contract before he died.

With such a large amount of business done at one time, it is estimated that at least hundreds of devils will be rewarded and promoted.

"Ah! It seems you already know what happened.

Well, let’s stop here for today’s conversation. It’s time for you to return to Faerun.

From what I have heard, that crazy mortal called Erinikas has made preparations to cross the line between man and god through a battlefield and massacre.

And the sons of Bhaal whom you helped support must now face their own fate."

After saying this, Asmodeus stood up and made a gesture of invitation.

moment!

Under the influence of some unknown powerful force, Zuo Si left Malshem and appeared directly on his own ninth floor.

Feeling the fleeting transmission just now, he couldn't help but touch his chin and muttered to himself: "Is this the absolute control that the Lord of Hell has over the entire plane?

It is possible to teleport yourself or the target to any point in the hell plane without the help of any spell.

Maybe I could try to develop some similar powers.

By then, as long as you use the land card to connect to the surrounding environment and turn it into hell, you will naturally be able to gain this god-like ability..."

(End of this chapter)
