Chapter 637: The Traitors
Li Qi did not respond to the question of the white-haired demon.
He shifted his gaze from the few people to the magic circle above.
Li Qi did not stop them from setting up the magic circle in the sky before. The first reason was that he wanted to see the power of the magic circle, which was regarded as one of the trump cards by the demons.
Second, I don’t think that I will be defeated by the demons now.
Because in the past few days Li Qi has also paid close attention to the records of the powerful people of this world.
According to judgment, the strongest person in this world is at the initial stage of the sixth level.
This is true for heroes, demon kings, and saints in their prime.
However, the brave warriors of this generation were killed by the fifth-level demon before they could reach their peak, and the same happened to the saint.
But no matter what, the strongest one can only be like this.
During the three days, Li Qi had already aligned his soul power with the rules of this world and was able to exert his sixth-level strength.
As for the power system of this world... although it is only at the third or fourth level due to the short time, Li Qi just needs an introduction and does not need to use the power system of this world to fight, so it doesn't matter.
The sixth level is equivalent to the level of the Demon King. With the super-standard power [Alchemy], it is estimated that even if the Demon King comes, he will not be able to get away with it.
For example, the [Invisible] flying machine that Li Qi made casually is comparable to the seventh-level. With this flying machine alone, he can kill a sage in an instant, and Li Qi has many more magical things that he has not made yet.
That's why Li Qicai allowed the magic circle to be successfully set up.
But I didn't expect that this magic circle could actually reverse time? "No, it's fixed... and then restored? I see, similar to saving and loading..."
Li Qi's eyes flashed, and using his [Clairvoyance], he quickly determined the overall structure and main functions of the magic circle.
The magic circle has four functions. The first one is blockade, which blocks this space and prevents people in the holy city from escaping.
The second is to ban magic. If necessary, the flow of magic power inside the holy city can be prohibited. Only those whose breath is recorded by the magic circle can use magic normally.
The third type is recording, recording the current status of all the demons.
Then the fourth type is recovery. When someone among the demons is seriously injured or dies, the magic circle will restore that person's body according to the recorded status.
When these two functions of recording and restoring are combined, it will create a scene similar to the flow of time.
But in essence, there are indeed some time rules involved, but not many, just some minor details.
"Interesting, how many times can it be restored?"
Li Qi developed a strong curiosity about the magic circle. He did not immediately destroy the structure of the magic circle. Instead, he moved his fingers lightly and decomposed the sage into several pieces in the blink of an eye.
"wait--"
When the sage saw Li Qi's fingers moving, he knew what was going to happen. While casting magic, he wanted to beg for mercy from Li Qi.
However, he lost consciousness after only one syllable was uttered.
His protective magic and the strong body that he was proud of could not last even a moment in front of Li Qi.
"What are you still standing there for?!" The voice of the Succubus Queen Perum came: "Blood Demon! Attack!!!"
Me? Do it? Are you kidding me?
Seeing the sage being decomposed again in front of Li Qi, the Blood Demon's heart almost jumped out of fear, but at this time, Pellum asked him to take action?
Are you sure you're not asking him to die?!
The Blood Demon wanted to curse at Pellum, but then he saw the young god looking at him with a smile.
He had a kind expression, and seemed to have no ill will towards the Blood Demon. The Blood Demon did not dare to attack for a moment. He looked around, and finally knelt down in front of the god.
"Surrender! I am willing to surrender!!"
The blood demon lowered his head and shattered his arms and weapons to show his sincerity to Li Qi.
"Blood Demon!?"
The blood demon's surrender made Perum extremely angry. She yelled at the blood demon, but soon calmed down and said in a cold tone: "I knew I couldn't count on you two losers!"
After Perum finished speaking, the magic circle that looked like a black cloud in the sky suddenly opened completely.
Magic circles, one inside the other, covered the entire sky. Countless magical powers were drained by the magic circles, making the entire area a magic-forbidden zone!
Forbidden magic area!
And it is a unilateral magic-forbidden area targeting only the Holy City!
All the power in this world is built on countless forces that are not based on magic. Whether it is a knight, a warrior, a swordsman, or a magician, the power they use is essentially magic.
Therefore, once magic power is banned, even the most powerful swordsman can only perform ordinary attacks.
No matter how strong the shield warrior's defense is, he can only rely on his own body! This is Perum's trump card!
"Blood Demon!! Attack now!! On behalf of the Demon King, I will forgive you!"
After casting the forbidden magic field, Pellum still did not appear. She ordered the blood demon to attack Li Qi.
The Blood Demon seemed to have heard nothing and stood obediently beside Li Qi.
Seeing that the Blood Demon was completely unreliable, Pellum had no choice but to resurrect the Sage again.
But the sage was killed by Li Qi again only one second after being resurrected.
"wait--!"
Perum was furious and resurrected the sage once again.
"I also……!"
The sage died once again, and although his resurrection time was slightly extended this time, he said two more words.
After this, Perum never resurrected the sage again.
Because she suddenly realized that facing a powerful god-like being, it would be useless for the Sage and the Blood Demon, two useless people and fence-sitters, to come no matter how many of them came.
And the sage seems to have the intention of betrayal, and Perum doesn't want another one of the Four Heavenly Kings to become an ally of the enemy.
And Perum was thinking about one thing at the moment.
The Forbidden Magic Field...seems to have no effect on that young man? Isn't he using magic power? ? "Why, you're not going to revive?"
Li Qi smiled and looked towards the back of the demon formation.
The Succubus Queen Perum is there.
He hid very far away, but he couldn't escape Li Qi's eyes.
Perum kept silent. In fact, she was thinking whether she should just run away... But the siege of the holy city was the Demon King's final plan. Now that the plan had failed, running back in disgrace... seemed to be no different from seeking death? Moreover, most of the means to deal with the Demon King were lost here. If the Demon King attacked her, she would be at his mercy...
Perum thought calmly.
Li Qi didn't disturb him. He looked up at the magic circle in the sky, flipped his right hand, and the magic book appeared in his hand.
Rare item [Li Qi's Magic Notes] (priceless version).
The magical item used in the doomsday world was perfectly reproduced by Li Qi. It recorded all the magic that Li Qi had ever used, and could be used with just a thought.
Now, this magic also records the structure of the magic circle above.
In other words, Li Qi also became the master of this magic circle.
The magic notes flipped, and the magic circle was pulled by Li Qi, restoring the recorded sage state.
As soon as the sage was resurrected this time, he immediately shouted: "I surrender too!!! Don't do it!!!"
After shouting and waiting for a while, the sage realized that he was not dead this time. He looked up at Li Qi who was holding the magic book and controlling the magic circle. He quickly realized what had happened during the period when he was dead again.
He stood in front of Li Qi without hesitation and looked at the demon army in the distance.
Among the demon army, there were two troops belonging to the Sage and the Blood Demon. When the two commanders defected to Li Qi's side, the two troops also became Li Qi's personal army.
It was only because the incident happened so suddenly that no one started fighting.
Among the demon army, the only troops that have not yet rebelled are the succubus troops led by the succubus queen herself and the demon king's personal guards.
In this team, the succubi are already ready to move and are looking at the Demon King's guards around them. The Demon King's guards are holding weapons and looking coldly at the other demons who have already rebelled.
The atmosphere outside the holy city was tense. Now Li Qi only needed to give an order, and these rebellious demon armies would fight each other with their original companions.
But Li Qi did not take action. He created a throne in the air, sat down on it, and looked at the army in the distance with interest.
One second, two seconds...
The scene remained silent for a full minute.
Until everyone was getting a little restless, the voice of the Succubus Queen Perum sounded slowly: "All the demon army listen to my order--"
The demon army each held their weapons and looked at each other.
Time seemed to stand still, and everyone held their breath. Three seconds later, Perum's voice came again:
"Encircle and destroy the Demon King's personal guards!!"
“Ah!!!!”
When the order was issued, the rebellious troops did not hesitate at all, and all kinds of magic and attacks that had been prepared long ago were swarmed and smashed into the small number of the Demon King's Guards! But the reason why the Demon King's Guards are the Demon King's Guards is because of their strength.
Therefore, even though they were outnumbered, they managed to hold on in this crazy siege! But if everyone betrayed them, how long could they hold on?
"Hey, Pellum, you're still talking about us, but aren't you a traitor yourself?"
When Pellum appeared in front of Li Qi, the first rebellious blood demon mocked him.
Pellum didn't even look at him. She knelt directly in front of the throne on the sky platform built by Li Qi.
She didn't say a word, but her attitude alone expressed her thoughts.
Seeing this hilarious scene where everyone betrayed the Demon King, Li Qi couldn't help but clap his hands and laugh:
"Well, well, your Demon King is unlucky enough to have accepted a group of...traitors like you."
As soon as Li Qi finished speaking, the wise man beside him immediately added:
"Sir, the demons admire the strong, so it is not shameful to submit to the strong. According to our judgment, you are stronger than the Demon King now, so it is natural for us to submit to you."
"So, if one day someone becomes stronger than me, you will betray me too?"
"That's right." The person who said this was Perum. She lowered her head and said, "If we can have your strength one day, we will naturally challenge you... But before that, we will always recognize you as our master!"
"You are quite frank."
Li Qi said with great amusement.
The demons in this world have the idea of the survival of the fittest ingrained in their bones. They will depend on whoever is strong and betray whoever is weak.
If they can betray the Demon King today, they may betray Li Qi tomorrow, provided that there really is someone stronger than Li Qi.
Li Qi didn't think too much about it. After all, he came to this world to practice and have some fun. He wouldn't stay for too long.
I don't care whether they will betray me in the future.
The civil war among the demons below was also coming to an end, and Li Qi had no interest in it.
Now that the demon crisis has been resolved, all that remains is to get rid of the Demon King. Li Qi will have peaceful time to practice and improve himself.
There was only one step left, and Li Qi had no time to waste.
He turned to look at the four rebellious kings and said:
"Where is the devil? Take me to him."
Now that the Four Heavenly Kings have been dealt with, let Li Qi see what kind of character the Demon King who brought destruction and despair to this world is.
