Chapter 401: Lanqi's Great Demonic Path
After a brief period of heavy silence, the Corendan Warden completely adjusted his mentality and emotions.
He put his anxiety and panic behind him and started to deal with the matters at hand. Although his movements were still a little stiff, they gradually became methodical, and the atmosphere in the office began to become harmonious and orderly.
The three resurrected priests still did not leave the side of Corendam Jail Warden. They were like three professional debt collectors. They would not look away until they supervised Corendam Jail Warden to get things done as quickly as possible.
"I am handling everything for you at full speed, please rest assured."
The Corendam prison warden was busy signing and stamping various documents, making sure that every detail complied with regulations. He spoke much faster, with a sincere expression of pleading for someone to wait.
After giving these trainee prison guards special evaluations, he made an additional note: the interns were too outstanding, and at the interns' wishes, he would make an exception and send the trainee prison guards to the inner level of the prison.
Then Corendan quickly handed the documents to the three resurrected priests.
The priest took it, quickly came to Hyperion, and presented it with both hands.
"Ms. Miriam, please take a look."
The Tyrant Priest asked in a deep voice.
"no problem."
Hyperion took it with tears in her eyes, checked it and confirmed it.
The priest respectfully took the documents back again and handed them to the Corendan prison warden, ordering him to enter the documents into the magical instrument connecting the barrier of Helrom Prison.
Hyperion witnessed it all.
Easy is indeed easy.
I even understood how easy and pleasant it was to be a high-ranking figure in the Protoss Empire's version of the Church of Resurrection.
But she felt that even if she put aside the fact that she was a priest of the Church of the Goddess of Destiny, the school's graduation internship project should not be something that she coerced and ordered the department head to do.
I hope the Ice Witch will still be willing to listen to her explanation by then.
Two minutes passed.
"Everyone, it's done. We can move on."
After completing the formalities, the Corendam prison warden stood up with a slightly stiff posture and personally asked the trainee prison guards to leave.
When he spoke to Hyperion, it was almost as if he was asking for instructions from his leader.
Because the three villains all obeyed her orders, and the black-haired, green-eyed girl who looked very bad was also led by her.
It was obvious that Miss Miriam Milford was the leader of this evil gang.
"Take us to the teleportation hall."
Hyperion didn't want to say anything now.
"Everyone, come this way."
The Corendam warden raised his hand to signal several trainee prison guards to follow him out of the office, and then led them through the corridor inside the prison.
These corridors appeared deep and quiet, with scrolls and lights hanging on the walls on both sides, emitting a soft light to illuminate their way forward.
The Corendam warden walked in front, occasionally looking back to make sure the trainee prison guards were keeping up. He also inadvertently revealed a friendly attitude that wanted to make up for the previous misunderstanding, and gave some tips about Helrom Prison or simple greetings.
Although his efforts may not completely eliminate the embarrassment and unpleasantness caused before, this change in attitude at least demonstrates his efforts to some extent.
“…”
This made Hyperion feel even more tortured.
She believed that the Ice Witch who was looking at her now was also suffering in the high-dimensional space. She even doubted her life and felt that the disciple she had personally trained could not be like this.
Soon after, the group arrived at the prison's teleportation hall.
On the central platform of the hall on the first underground floor is the giant void portal. Mysterious ancient runes are engraved on the dark gray door frame shaped like sea mineral crystals, and the dark purple mirror in the middle sparkles with a mysterious and psychedelic light.
Warden Corendan walked up the steps in front of the portal and took out his key crystal from the inside pocket of his coat.
He gently embedded it into the console next to the portal. The crystal key touched the groove, and the light on the portal trembled slightly and instantly became brighter.
"If you go down normally, you can choose to leave as long as you complete the assessment at the negative third floor. If you leave the outer layer and reach the negative fourth floor directly, you can only go all the way to the negative sixth floor to leave the prison smoothly. The prisoners and wardens in the bottom three floors are not normal guys. Even Warden Bakas is unwilling to set foot on those three floors easily. I have explained the risks to you clearly. If you encounter any accidents, I will not harm you."
The Corendan prison warden emphasized this to them with extreme caution, and after observing their expressions, he recorded this part using the video crystal.
The outer layer of Helrom Prison - the negative first to negative third floors, and the inner layer - the negative fourth to negative sixth floors, are essentially two prisons.
Starting from the negative fourth floor, even if you don't come into contact with the prisoners, even if you just stay on that level, your life will be in great danger.
"Understood."
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Hyperion nodded and replied.
Long before she came to the Protoss Empire, she had heard the Ice and Snow Witch explain why the level where the three great demons were imprisoned was extremely terrifying.
The lower three levels of Helrom Prison, which were once located in the Demon Realm, were all restricted areas used for the important ritual of the "Great Demon Trial". Every once in a while, the rituals and prisoners on the three levels would be exchanged and transferred, so before stepping in, there is no way to know what you will encounter on the negative four to negative six levels.
The only thing that is certain is that they will all be miracles created by the magic rituals of the ancient demon world.
The Ice Witch believed that as the daughter of Ifatia and a member of the demon royal family, Hyperion's qualifications should not be bad.
Although the danger of Helrom has been reduced by more than 90% after reconstruction, and the prison guards will not encounter dangers equivalent to ancient demon rituals when entering, but if they insist on seeking death, they can still trigger the Great Demon Trial.
As long as the demons can independently meet extremely harsh conditions, pass a great demon trial, or gain the loyalty of a great demon, they will receive a title soul mark.
Among them, nine fixed titles and marks belong to the nine great demon trials.
And every time a great demon obtains a title that belongs to him alone, he will have a chance to bestow the title mark on other demons.
A hundred years ago, there were a total of nine different great demon trials in the demon world. Now, after the defeat, they have been divided into several places. The negative fourth to negative sixth floors of Helrom Prison were rebuilt from three of them.
The rest were either destroyed or can no longer be found.
There are a total of nine trials, four of which test one's character, four of which test one's martial arts ability, and one of which requires the approval of the ancestral spirits.
With three marks, including at least one of mentality and at least one of force, one can become a great demon, making other ordinary demons submit to him. At the same time, one's own demon innate magic will unlock the path to the ultimate.
If the three marks include the trial of the ancestral soul, or if one obtains the recognition of the contemporary demon king, one will further obtain the title.
Otherwise, even if he becomes a great demon, he will be an "unknown great demon" not recognized by the demons.
With six marks, the characteristics of the demons will also undergo a transformation, which is the qualification to approach that of a demon king.
Any demon who reaches the ninth mark, also known as a quasi-demon king, becomes a demon king if there are no other competitors in the same era.
Only the Demon King has the power to grant special attacks and commands to other demons.
