On the mountainside thirty kilometers outside the ruins of Asiaze City, the demons held about two hundred "captives".
There is no such thing as a prison cell, but instead a circle of specific spells is used as a boundary, forming an invisible cage in this place where the power of hell is strong.
There were many demons wandering around, looking into the cage with eyes full of greed and desire, especially the dozen or so figures in the middle who were taller than the smaller ones around them.
Most of the people in this cage are Ridgetops, but there are also twelve human soldiers. Some of them have lost their helmets, and some of their bulletproof armor is broken. They stand out among the more than 200 Ridgetops. Judging from the epaulettes and armbands on their uniforms, they belong to the German and Italian special forces.
A flesh and blood body is not a machine, so there is certainly fear. However, when he saw the people around him who were either frightened to the point of shitting and pissing, or pale and unable to stand steadily, coupled with the eager and contemptuous eyes of the demons around him, it greatly stimulated his pride as a human warrior. This is a kind of spiritual power at the level of will.
“Bang… bang… bang…”
The ground was vibrating slightly, and the sound was accompanied by it, causing the more than 200 people sitting there to feel a slight numbness in the part of their bodies that had touched the bottom. At the same time, a special feeling of oppression was gradually increasing, stronger than ever before.
Three powerful demons that have never appeared before are slowly approaching.
Two of them are more than ten meters tall, and the smallest one is only about three meters. Compared with other demons, they are not very big, but all the big demons or other high-level demons that have been seen around them seem to become small.
Especially these three demons seemed very heavy. The shaking of the ground did not come from the bigger demons around them, but from these three relatively "petite" beings.
The heartbeat and breathing of the people at the top of the ridge became noticeably rapid. The twelve humans were only slightly better off than the people at the top of the ridge, but their heartbeats were still disordered. It was easy to tell that they were definitely coming for them.
"So, these are the creatures from another world? Very unique soul aura."
A demon lord walked straight into the cage. The spell seemed to not exist at all and did not stop it at all. This was the only humanoid demon among the three lords, and the object of loyalty of the great demon Plague.
“Crack…”
A sound of breaking bones was heard, and another demon lord was chewing a human body in his mouth, and the legs that were still outside were still twitching.
'when?'
The first reaction of those German and Italian soldiers was not fear, but to turn around and look at their comrades around them.
"Damn it!! It's Frances!!"
"Asshole, I didn't even react!!"
"This bastard from hell!"
…
It can be seen that the humans are furious, and the people around the ridgetops cannot stand up straight, and most of them sit on the ground with limp bodies.
This is not to say that there are no tough guys among these Ridgetops, but the soul shock of the Demon Lord is too strong. Although the natives like the Ridgetops are the souls of intelligent life, it is still difficult for them to bear it.
"Donibal, you said they were powerful?"
The demon lord who was chewing the human soldier swallowed the remaining flesh and blood in one gulp and licked his tongue.
“I admit that the taste is indeed unique, but it is still very fragile.”
The great demon Donibal did not directly answer the prince's words, but hooked his claws at several humanoid high-level demons, who immediately and carefully took out some preserved things, which were human weapons, including some rifles and pistols, and a single-soldier rocket launcher.
"Great Lord Doman, the power of the devils is often not reflected in themselves, but in these weapons."
When the big demon finished speaking, a high-level demon carefully raised the rifle in his hand and aimed it at a low-level demon who looked very strong not far away.
"Bang bang bang bang..."
The small metal bar suddenly exploded with a loud noise, and flames spewed out of the muzzle.
“Puff, puff, puff…” “Roar…”
Almost at the same time, blood holes appeared on the body of the demon that was the target of the attack. Two of the bullet holes had entrances only two fingers wide, but exits larger than a flower bowl.
“Ka-ka-ka…”
The bullet missed its target, allowing the unsuspecting low-level demon to escape, but even though it was bleeding profusely, it did not dare to flee.
"This cylinder is more powerful, but we are probably missing something crucial, so we can't hide it. These are just their most basic weapons, and some of them can even pose a threat to me."
The three demon lords shifted their gazes between the low-level demon and the guns, and the big demons who came here from hell with them were also very curious.
"interesting!"
The humanoid demon lord walked to the side of the high-level demon, picked up a rifle, and pulled the trigger, but there was a "click" sound.
It raised the weapon in its hand strangely and clapped it a few times, then looked at the other high-level demon who was still holding a gun.
"How do I use this?"
The latter was a little nervous.
"Lord Sohibit, these devil's weapons require special energy devices. Only devils can make such things. They are consumables. The weapons in your hands no longer have such energy devices."
After saying this, the high-level demon rummaged through several rifles, and by weighing them he found a gun with bullets and handed it to the prince, and considerately opened the safety.
The Demon Lord fired continuously at his own hands.
“Bang, bang, bang, bang… crack.”
Bullets were bounced off one after another until the magazine was empty. The Demon Lord's hands did not move at all, and his expression did not change at all.
“Is this kind of stuff just the most basic?”
In fact, before coming to this cage, the three demon lords had learned a lot about the situation during this period from Plague and Donibal. The demons encountered powerful opponents, and their progress in this world was slow and they were even threatened with being defeated.
It was also the first time I heard words like “abyss” and “devil” which were unfamiliar but had a complicated meaning just from the names.
"Yes, my lord. I have seen a larger metal weapon. Generally, a medium-sized demon will be blown to pieces if it is hit once, and a high-level demon will also suffer heavy damage."
The one who spoke was the great demon Plague.
The three demon lords looked at the weapons and said nothing for a while.
The reason why they were able to pass through the "gate" so quickly had long been understood: it was because the Ash Ship crashed and their core was used directly to set up the magic array.
The situation here is unexpectedly complicated and more difficult than encountering the ancient fire demon that was originally imagined.
"What are their weaknesses? Stop saying they are physically fragile."
Although he didn't want to admit it, the Demon Lord also agreed that if he wanted to directly defeat the "Devil's" army head-on, it would cost a lot of money, and the upper demons would probably suffer many casualties.
"Of course there is, the great Demon Lord!"
The great demon Donibal looked at the eleven seemingly tiny humans.
"The devil's army is indeed powerful, but they rely heavily on the command of high-ranking devils. A high-level devil can exert a stronger force by leading its loyal servant devils. The higher the status of the devil, the larger the scope of the army deployment."
"We had several battles where we gained the advantage by finding and killing high-ranking demons!"
Before anyone could react, two more human soldiers were captured by the man-eating demon lord.
"So, if we just kill the highest ranking devils, we can win more easily!"
It looked down at the two tiny "devils" in its hands. They were covered in sweat, and their breathing and heartbeats were very intense.
"Tell me, who is the highest-ranking devil and where is he? By the way, what did you rely on to come into this world?"
This time, the magic vibrations were used so that both humans and Ridgetops could understand it.
The two German and Italian soldiers were breathing heavily. Even though the Demon Lord did not exert much effort, his bones still creaked under the heavy load and his body was in extreme pain.
"You fucking... hell... bastard..."
“Puff…” “Puff…”
The two humans were crushed directly, blood flowed out from the hands of the Demon Lord, two twisted shadows of pain were pulled out, and waves of wailing continued to sound. Those were the souls of the human soldiers.
The Demon Lord whispered something in the chaos of hell to the two suffering souls, and soon inhaled the souls into his mouth like smoking, and then looked at the remaining nine people.
"They have already said it, so you should say it too. It will make your death less painful."
The soldier of Deyi country looked at his armband, his face pale but with a tragic smile, as if he was mocking the huge and terrifying demon.
A lieutenant stepped forward.
"It can be seen that you are a very high-level demon, perhaps a queen-level demon, or even a king-level demon. However, those you killed were elite warriors of the KSK. They would never become traitors to humanity."
"Demons, you don't know what you've gotten yourself into. You don't understand how scary we humans are. Well, we are the devil!!"
The lieutenant raised his right hand, made a pistol gesture with his fingers, and whispered "bang".
The smile was happy, as if he was holding a gun and executing a demon.
This action made the confused Demon Lord narrow his eyes, while the human soldiers behind him laughed together.
The feeling of oppression became stronger and stronger, the temperature around was rising, the lieutenant had been swallowed up in one gulp, and the remaining human soldiers had indifferent expressions.
"I said! I...I said!!!"
A sharp voice filled with fear sounded from not far behind the human soldier. It was a trembling Ridgecrest noble official.
Although these human soldiers could not understand the language of the Ridgetop people, they instinctively felt that something was wrong.
"I know!!! Just let me go!! Just let me go..."
"Kill him! Quickly!"
Brush~brush...
The remaining eight soldiers instantly turned and rushed towards the ridgetop man. As long as they made contact with the short man, they would end his life instantly.
“Bang”, “Bang”, “Bang”, “Bang”…
It was like hitting a wall. The eight people were bounced back, and then a huge claw fell and crushed the three soldiers under its claw.
"Oh? You know about the devil, too?"
The Ridgetop nobleman didn't dare to look at the devil, nor did he dare to look at the eyes of those celestial beings. His body kept shaking and his voice trembled.
"I, I, I know the information of the highest, highest official of the Heavenly Army... His name is Baru..."
…
Ten minutes later, the demons got the information they wanted and even knew the existence of the summoning ritual array, while the remaining five members of the KSK special forces were dead.
