Chapter 127 Overlord (crossed out) Egg?
This was the first time that Gong Qiying took over someone else's dungeon, and he had an indescribable feeling in his heart.
How should I put it? I'm just being cautious and don't feel comfortable having fun.
When he had just obtained the operating rights for the Val Dungeon, Gong Qiying asked:
"Would you mind if your house turned into a red swimming pool? It might have a bit of an irritating smell and there might be some not-so-clean little creatures."
The crystal on Kidd's head flashed wildly for a while before responding:
"I hope you won't do that if it's not necessary. Here are the precious memories Mr. Kilic left me."
In fact, Gong Qiying can just ignore the other party's thoughts and do it directly, after all, he has the biggest fist here.
But he is not a real American garrison, so he still has to respect human rights. He treats Kidd as an equal.
All in all, he has been the city lord for longer than Gong Qiying's two lifetimes combined, so he must know a lot. From our current communication, I feel that the robot Kidd has a good personality, and it would be nice to just treat him as an encyclopedia with which you can chat.
Then again, there is no way to renovate the buildings in the Vaal Dungeon right now.
Although it is unknown what method the demons used to reopen the portal leading here, as long as they stay here, even if there is only one of them, it will affect the dungeon and allow it to transform the buildings.
It’s a pity that some of the wonderful ideas that Gong Qiying had kept in his heart could not be used.
"Wouldn't the dungeon be closed at night? How about renovating it in the middle of the night?"
"Sorry." I could actually hear an apology from Kidd's mechanical voice. "This dungeon will not be closed."
Gong Qiying raised his head and asked, "Level 4 authority?"
After the city lord is upgraded to the fourth level of authority, he can modify the closing time of the dungeon or even never close it. Correspondingly, as long as the city lord wants, he can drive out people staying in the maze at any time. Even with the fourth level of authority, he must abide by the rule of "buildings can only be modified when no one stays".
After reaching level 4, the number of people who can explore the dungeon together can be modified, and there is still no upper limit.
"Mr. Kilic is level four, but I'm only level one." A red light flashed above Kidd's head, as if expressing his shame.
"Mr. Kilic set the dungeon to never close. When he first transferred the authority to me, I was also level 4, but the dungeon was already closed at that time, and I didn't think of changing the time."
"Until now, my mental power reserves have been continuously reduced, and my authority has been downgraded to level one. I can no longer modify time."
I don't know if it's a bug or a feature common to dungeons all over the world, but although the dungeon lord's authority will be reclaimed when it is reduced, the settings made with high-level authority will not be changed back to their original state, thus causing the current situation.
It's weird, I always feel like I can rely on this feature to fix bugs.
Gong Qiying thought about it and decided that now they could only rely on monsters to deal with these demons who had set up camp.
He felt a little regretful that he couldn't use the Corrupted Lake, but there were also a lot of things in the monsters that he wanted to use but couldn't use on adventurers.
He unfolded a microscopic model of the Vaal dungeon.
This is an underground ancient ruin made of bronze. Its shape is similar to the dwarf ruins in "The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim", but its technological content is lower. When in doubt, magic is used to solve the problem.
The front half is rocks and open space, the central part is ancient ruins, and the back half is an insect nest covered with spider webs.
Judging from the available monsters in the Vaal Dungeon, the monsters here are roughly divided into golems, spiders, and short humanoid monsters similar to goblins, which correspond to each scene.
The demons spent most of their time wandering around the open space in the front half, but according to Kidd's observation, during their rest time they would enter the bronze ruins, where all the mechanisms had been destroyed.
Perhaps because there are dormitory-like facilities in the bronze ruins, the intelligence of these pure-blooded demons is no different from that of humans, and they also know to find a comfortable place to sleep.
Sleeping in the ruins
Gong Qiying smiled. This gave him a lot of room for maneuver.
Not only can they send a large number of soldiers to block the gate, but they can also use a small number of elites to fight and decapitate. It is estimated that these demons never thought that they would be beaten into here by the enemy.
But this time Gong Qiying plans to try something else.
Wouldn’t it be perfect to use such a small space to release some “poison gas”?
"Do they have any behavioral habits?" He looked at Kidd, who raised a metal plate on the spot with images projected on it. It seemed to be something of the same nature as his crystal ball.
Carefully selected images were played on the metal plate, and Kidd explained:
"In the beginning, there were no more than fifty demons that entered here. They transformed this place into a temporary base. Although the traps in the dungeon are still operational, they have no effect on the demon leader."
"The number of demons increased on the second day. They hid during the day and came out at night. Every time they returned, they would bring back a group of new demons that they had never seen before. There were five or six demons at least, and as many as twenty or thirty demons. However, these newly appeared demons all had one thing in common - they were not very intelligent. I think they were under a spell of stupidity."
Stupid? Gong Qiying keenly grasped the key words. The demons that appeared in his dungeon were also stupid.
Those stupid demons were transformed from humans. If these factors are combined together.
He told his theory to Kidd, who rocked back and forth as if imitating a human nodding motion.
"They are really converting the humans outside into their own kind,"
"You guessed it too?"
Kidd didn't say anything, but played a video for Gong Qiying.
In the picture, several sturdy demons were chatting. One of them picked up a thumb-sized green ball of flesh and said:
"The thing the priest gave me is really useful. Once humans put it on, they start screaming and become like us."
"Idiot, how can you compare such impure things with us? They are not worthy!"
"I still don't understand why the army commander is wasting time on converting humans, when we can obviously take down this dilapidated city by ourselves."
"Hey, if Lord Doslepo hears you, you're done for. Don't talk nonsense. Lord Doslepo is doing this to increase his score. I'm telling you, the scores of other army captains are ahead of Lord Doslepo, so he must make a big event happen."
The first demon said in a muffled voice: "Scores? That kind of thing is useless except for increasing your rank. I really don't know why the priests use such things. Why do you have to play games when you can just kill people?"
Seeing that the topic was becoming more and more dangerous, another person quickly interrupted it.
"By the way, does anyone know what this thing is called? Lord Doslepo told us to give it to someone who is qualified. It is said that such a person will be stronger than us after transformation."
"Tsk, I don't believe it, a mere human being"
"Devil's Egg," a demon suddenly said, "This thing is called a Devil's Egg. Remember this, the Master will ask you questions later."
"It's time to go and capture some humans. Time is tight today."
When the video ended, Gong Qiying's face was expressionless, and he asked, "Can you give me a copy of these?"
Demonic Eggs, Killing Games, Scores and Ranks.
This was the first time he came into contact with so much content about the demons, and he felt that the mysterious veil of this race was being unveiled bit by bit.
The demons use the fallen demon eggs to transform humans into demented demons. From what they said, it seems that they can create even stronger demons.
The so-called priests are also worthy of attention. Games, scores, classes. I didn’t expect that the demons have such a set of rules. It turns out that their civilization is not like that of primitive tribes.
We can then leave a few of them alive for interrogation; perhaps they still know something about the underground city of Erchao.
"Of course," Kidd said, "According to my analysis, the demons have used this place as a base, bringing in transformed humans every day, seemingly gathering forces to attack the city outside."
"I think so. The city is said to have fallen."
"So fast?" Kidd asked in surprise, "Faster than I thought. What about the human's reaction?"
"The army is on their way on horseback. It will take at least two days."
“Two days.”
Kidd suddenly stopped moving, and just when Gong Qiying thought he had crashed, he said grimly:
"Mr. Godwin, I have a request."
"Please speak," Gong Qiying said politely.
"Could you please wait until the humans and demons are fighting, and then attack them from both sides?"
The cold mechanical sound was mixed with noise from time to time.
"According to my observation, the demons regard the Val Dungeon as a secret base that no one knows about. If they lose, they will retreat here. If they win, they will come back to celebrate. No matter whether they are in great joy or great sorrow, I would like to ask you."
"rest assured,"
Gong Qiying patted Kidd on the head and showed a sunny and cheerful smile.
"I will make sure to give these guys who tarnish your precious memories a most painful death."
"Mr. Godwin"
Kidd was so moved that he didn't know what to say, so -
[You received a gift from the Lord of Val Dungeon: 1,000 Spiritual Powers]
Gong Qiying's eyes were full of relief. He was determined to make friends with such a generous person!
A lot happened that day.
The two dungeon lords reached a cooperation and were discussing how to make the demons die in the most painful way.
A certain adventurer and his wolf pack are still being tested by the Fran Undead Squad. He is now able to perform simple counterattacks while defending.
A temporary coalition of Bed's soldiers, adventurers, various churches, and other forces is on its way on horseback, vowing to kill the demons here as quickly as possible.
The city of Val, which has become a den of demons, is the residence of the city lord.
The entire building has been wrapped in wriggling flesh and blood, with dark red juice flowing all the time, making it look full of evil.
In the very center of the building, Doslebo, the leader of this group of demons, was sitting in the flesh and blood.
"When the next batch of humans arrives, we will be able to gather the sacrifices for the birth of a new demon."
He looked up at the night sky. The moonlight was bright and sacred.
"Now I can go one step further."
Start killing now, kill, kill, kill
