Chapter 538: Merit Exchange
This spider-like drow lord never expected that Melina would take the initiative to provoke him.
The spider-like drow said in surprise: "Are you really an idiot? It's not easy to meet someone as good as you in hell."
This bit of sarcasm is a perfectly normal way of greeting a devil, right?
Just choose to duel now?
Now all the nearby devils came over to watch the fun, and the devils who liked to watch the fun and no matter how much trouble they made began to clamor and urge them to take action.
"Hurry up!"
"Fight, fight!"
"I want to see a river of blood!"
…
No matter who wins or loses, you might be able to make some money by picking up corpses.
Even the fortress personnel responsible for collecting the bodies wisely retreated temporarily.
Melina had given him the choice of kneeling down or dying, and it would be too embarrassing for him to not do anything.
Actually, we can't blame the spider drow for being mean. In hell, this kind of taunting is really common, just like calling someone a dead ghost when you meet them.
But he didn't know that Melina was highly sensitive to derogatory words related to IQ.
You say that this undead princess who came from another place to beg for food won't care, but if you say she is an idiot, then Melina will never stop fighting you.
The spider-like drow snorted coldly, and the deep red hell magic patterns on his body began to glow, and he was ready for battle.
But he only saw Melina's body flash and disappear.
This was teleportation magic, but Melina was so fast that the spider drow didn't see her casting. Was it a magic equipment effect or a scroll? Was it a phantom step or a space jump? Although he didn't know what it was, the spider drow immediately sprayed out a large piece of spider silk. These spider silks contained a deadly poison that corroded the soul and would float into the air with the spider silk. Even the undead were not immune.
This kind of poison can at least stop the opponent's surprise attack, right?
But unfortunately, his idea was too naive.
So much so that when the spear in Melina's hand pierced through his fat spider belly, the spider-like drow was unable to react.
With black blood gushing out of his mouth, the spider-like drow turned his head with difficulty to look at Melina, saying, "How is this possible?!"
It's no wonder he was shocked. The lower body of a spider-like drow was in spider form, so it was particularly enlarged, like a living target, and had many important organs. Such parts must be well protected.
Therefore, most of the magic patterns of this spider drow are on the spider body. These magic patterns can not only provide magic gain effects, but also have strong defensive power. To put it bluntly, he can withstand several hits from the magic cannons on the Blood River Fortress.
But now Melina only used an inconspicuous spear to penetrate his body, and those defensive magic patterns were like paper. Even if the magic patterns were ineffective, he still had a magic necklace and ring on him, and several protective magic effects, how could they not work at all?
Melina had no intention of explaining to him. She thrust out the spear transformed from the Whispering Tree in her hand like a violent storm, stabbing the giant spider-like drow into a pulp.
The whole process took only ten seconds, and this powerful spider-like drow was completely dead. Its soul shattered into countless rays of light and then slowly dissipated. It might take several years before it emerges from all over hell.
The biggest problem of this spider drow is that it relies too much on magic equipment and magic power. Melina is simply a mage killer, who can kill anyone in seconds. Unless you are like Gareth, who has the power to fight a legendary warrior with bare hands even if you lose all your magic power, otherwise you will most likely be killed in seconds when you meet Melina.
The battle was resolved in just a few seconds. The result shocked the surrounding demons, so much so that the demons who were about to pick up the body of the spider-like drow fell down were stunned for a moment.
In just this moment of hesitation, Kambien quickly came to Melina's side and took off all the valuable things on the spider-like drow. He pointed at the incomplete corpse and said, "Can this be considered a merit?"
When the black-hearted little coward heard what Kambien said, he came to his senses and said seriously, "We don't accept this thing."
With a flick of the whip, the mechanism door under the scale opened, and a fat tentacle stretched out from it, rolling up the several-ton spider-like drow corpse.
Although he said he would not take it, the little coward was still very happy. In order to prevent the devils from rioting because of their excessive deductions, the Blood River Fortress had tasks for these little cowards. With such a large spider drow, today's supply would be mostly enough, and they could deduct more later.
But the little coward looked at Melina's indifferent face and thought to himself that he should deduct less today, as his life is more important.
There are rules in the Blood River Fortress that prohibit attacking the staff inside, but who knows if this undead girl will go crazy? Will she have "the other party is fully responsible" written on her tombstone after she dies?
Saving your life is important, you can save money slowly.
Kambian was the smartest one under Melina. He could tell at a glance that the little coward was frightened, so he pulled Monica over and took the initiative to choose this person to submit the demon corpse.
Monica also understood what he meant. Although she didn't dare to completely confuse this little coward, she thought that just a wink and a few nice words would help him get more points in his merit book.
All the corpses in several space pockets were poured out and counted. After that, the little coward finally did not count the Balor Flame Demon as a hellworm.
But in the end, they could only exchange for 22,000 soul coins.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
This was already the least the little coward had ever deducted in his life.
Monica and Kambien both sighed. This was the reason why they were unwilling to come to the Blood River Fortress. It would be a pure loss to go there and back. It would be better for them to set up a stall by the Blood River and make as much money as possible.
The two of them couldn't help but look at Melina. They came to Blood River Fortress today not just to lose money. Melina said that they wanted to purchase the authority of the Lord of Hell.
The smallest territory authority requires 50,000 soul coins, which is almost a symbol of status and has no special benefits, but at least you can build a fortress in the territory you have seized instead of gradually becoming deserted.
A large number of small territories outside the Blood River Battlefield are of this type. The lords have finally found a piece of land to build a fortress, where they can hunt down the scattered demons that escape, and use it as the outer front of the Blood River Battlefield.
But Melina didn't think so. Before going to the Blood River Fortress, Melina had conquered a total of six territories, but there were only three lords of hell who truly submitted to Melina, including Monica.
The lords of the remaining three territories are dead, the fortresses are collapsing, and the territories are gradually becoming deserted.
Melina wants to combine these six pieces into a whole and make it her own territory. To rule such a huge territory, the required lord authority is very high, at least three million soul coins.
Monica followed here entirely under Melina's orders, and now it depends on how this master is going to solve the problem.
But Kambian didn't care at all. He already knew Melina's character very well. This master was strong and direct, without so many beating around the bush. Since she said she wanted to buy the lord's authority, she must have been prepared long ago.
And Kambien was not disappointed. When Melina heard the offer of twenty-two thousand, she just frowned, then took out the magic mirror and whispered, "Father, this Blood River Fortress is too dark!"
Amber Xiu's image appeared on the mirror. He laughed and said, "Silly boy, this is hell."
Monica was looking down from above and could clearly see the magic mirror in Melina's hand. Monica had long guessed Melina's identity. The man she called her father... No, wasn't he dead? I heard that his soul was completely broken.
Even if not, it should have fallen into the hands of Grand Duke Zariel. How could he chat with Melina?
Is this really the fraudster she has admired for so long? Monica felt a surge of heat and her body softened a little.
Melina didn't notice this, but just pointed the magic mirror at the empty space. Then, countless flesh and blood poured out from the teleportation array above the magic mirror, drowning the black-hearted little coward.
