Broad World

There is no distinction between day and night in hell, and there is no sun, moon, and stars. The sky is always filled with blood-red light, and blazing fireballs are constantly flying. Even in a strong fortress, you can still hear the sound coming from outside. Explosion.

However, Bayer has no time to pay attention to the messy noise outside, staring at the human sitting opposite him, and asked nervously: "How, have you found any clues?"

"Hehe, you want to ask, have I discovered the secret of Zariel being the Lord of Hell?" Henry rubbed his dry eyes and asked with a tired face.

After more than ten hours of uninterrupted research, he has roughly figured out how hell works, and why Zariel can still maintain his status as a lord after he stepped down in a coup d'état.

Of course, some of the fallen angel's own physiological structure and reasons for its fall have also been investigated. He even specially collected a small bottle of blood containing powerful energy, and he planned to take it back for a small experiment to see if the What effect would the fusion of the two attributes of devil and fallen angel produce?

"Please stop playing tricks, you know what I want." Baier patted the table impatiently.

He could feel that after that series of extremely brutal autopsies, the other party must have obtained a lot of useful information, but since he came to this secret room until now, he hasn't even asked for anything of value.

Henry didn't care about the anger of the big devil in front of him, he just smiled playfully: "Hehe, well, since you want to know so urgently, it's okay to tell you, who made me a person who likes to keep promises? But before getting into the topic, let's talk about the promotion mechanism of the devils, so that you can have a more intuitive impression."

"What does this have to do with the devil's promotion mechanism?" Bayer frowned subconsciously. A puzzled expression appeared on his ugly face.

"On the contrary, it has a lot to do with it. First of all, the power of hell comes from the squeezing of the soul. It is the energy transformed from the strong emotions in human nature that allows the devil to obtain a long life and powerful power."

Speaking of this, there was a hint of excitement in Henry's eyes, and he continued to explain: "If I guess correctly, in the hell promotion mechanism, the number of managers is always fixed. Right? Every devil wants There are only two ways to be promoted, either through betrayal and political means to bring down your boss, or patiently waiting for the unexpected death of your boss. And once the souls harvested by a certain lord are greatly reduced, he will immediately put some less useful people around him. It’s all right for your subordinates to deal with downgrading, right?”

Bayer nodded without hesitation: "That's right, when the soul energy is not enough, the lord will use this method to stimulate the devils under him, forcing them to work harder to collect souls."

Henry smiled meaningfully and shook his fingers: "No, you're wrong, that's just one aspect. The most important reason why the lords do this is energy. I found in my research that each layer of hell lords is quite For a distributor. After all the souls who come to this level of hell are squeezed, all the energy will flow to him, and then he will distribute it to other devils."

"This also means that the more the lord distributes to his subordinates, the less he keeps. At the same time, promoting a devil consumes energy, and lowering a devil will release energy. It takes a lot of energy to become a high-level devil. Degrading a high-level devil to an inferior is just the opposite, so..."

"So even though Zariel has been imprisoned now, she still holds the right to distribute energy! Damn it! No wonder I have been unable to complete the promotion!" Bayer cursed loudly through gritted teeth.

He is very smart, and he found the problem at once. Although as the commander, he has the right to be under one person and above ten thousand people on the first floor of hell, but because he is short of this person, he can't get the energy at all. distribution rights. And Zariel will definitely not actively distribute energy to those who betray him, so he cannot get enough energy, and naturally he cannot complete the transformation from quantitative change to qualitative change.

It has to be said that hell is very strict in terms of system and law, which is much more perfect than the lawful and kind planes like Tiantang Mountain. There are very few loopholes to exploit.

Although I found the problem, there was nothing I could do.

Because as long as Zariel is still the titular lord. And she didn't take the initiative to make mistakes, even Asmodeus, the lord of the Nine Hells, couldn't revoke her title at will.

Hell is an absolutely lawful place, everyone and things must abide by the laws and rules, anyone who dares to challenge the bottom line will definitely be severely punished, this has been proved again in the "pay the bill" operation not long ago, even The lords at one level paid an extremely heavy price after they offended.

In this incident, several lords united in an attempt to overthrow Asmodeus' rule over hell, but unfortunately, they were played by this insidious and cunning strongest devil. One lord died completely, and several lords were killed. When it comes to liquidation, who would dare to challenge the laws and systems of hell after such a bloody example?

Perhaps many grudge lords and devil dukes are still secretly brewing plots, but Bayer, who is the frontline commander of the bloody battle, absolutely dare not, because although he temporarily formed an alliance with the Eight Demon Generals, the object of the other party's allegiance It was always Asmodeus. Once the Lord of Hell spoke, the eight bloody commanders who controlled the elite army would immediately strike back.

"Is there no other way? For example, directly squeeze and extract energy from her!" Bayer slapped the table with some unwillingness.

Under his terrifying power, the hard rocks were scattered in all directions, and a huge handprint was photographed in a few clicks.

Smiling and looking at the irritable deep-hell refiner in front of him, Henry deliberately pretended to be indifferent and shrugged his shoulders: "Of course there are ways, and there are more than one, but the risks are very high, I'm not sure Do you dare to take the risk?"

Baier's eyes lit up slightly, he licked his sharp teeth with his tongue, and asked in a low voice, "What method?"

"Your Excellency, I believe you should know that there is no free lunch in this world. I have fulfilled my obligation just now, and the next suggestion is not free." Henry is not a fool, so he naturally understands that this time is a good time. Great timing for a sum of money.

Obviously, Bayer is very eager to get rid of his current embarrassing status. After all, every devil has a strong desire for power, and he is unwilling to share it with anyone. What's more, he came to power through a coup, and his position has never been very stable. Zary Er is like a time bomb strapped to his body, and it may explode with a bang at some point, so this is a good opportunity to raise prices.

"Then, what price do I need to pay to obtain these suggestions. Of course, the premise is that your suggestions are feasible."

As an old fritter who has struggled in the political situation in hell, Bayer is no stranger to trading. As long as the goal can be achieved, he doesn't even mind shaking hands with the devil's mortal enemy, the devil.

In fact, he also did the same in actual actions. Many demon lords secretly flirted with this demon commander who was fighting on the front line of the bloody battle, and sold information to attack opponents. The demon of the devil, the famous two-way plug that can be both male and female—the Lord of Dark Grazt, it is said that he has always maintained an extremely ambiguous relationship with him.

Of course, these are just rumors and there is no evidence.

Henry rubbed his chin and pretended to think about it for a few minutes, then he suddenly asked: "I heard that you have an elite army composed of humans and tieflings, and every member is a professional above the twelfth level. not real?"

"That's right, their main role is to organize the mercenaries who come to fight from various dimensions in the multiverse. You should be very clear that many races have some misunderstandings about us devils, so sometimes humans and tieflings are used as The commander can reduce their antipathy, if you want this army, then I can only say sorry, because their role in the bloody battle is irreplaceable." Saying that, Bayer spread his hands pretending to be helpless.

He hasn't completely integrated all the forces on the first floor of hell, and many high-ranking devils in the army are still secretly loyal to Zariel, so they dare not put such an important force on the trading table.

After all, although it is very important to complete the transformation from a general to a lord, if you are kicked out because of this, it will be too much to lose. He didn't want to be imprisoned like Zariel was now, tortured and whipped every now and then.

Henry smiled and shook his head: "No, you misunderstood, I am not very interested in this army itself, but in the officers inside. If you can provide me with twenty elites, then I will I will give you some very useful suggestions. Remember, these twenty people must be completely handed over to me from body to soul, including those soul contracts in your hands."

Since the last conflict with the City of Shadows, he found that his power on the surface was still too little, and he was easily taken advantage of by those from the evil camp, so he always wanted to build a guard team composed of elites. to keep your family safe.

You must know that the mortals who are qualified to come to participate in the bloody battle are usually very skilled. Basically, the minimum professional level is above level five, and there are countless people between level ten and level fifteen. You can just get a few and take them back.

Anyway, most of the guys who can join the devil's camp are in the lawful camp, their obedience is absolutely impeccable, and they have rich combat experience, so they are the best candidates for guards.

Bayer's two eyeballs with evil light rolled in their sockets for a long time, as if he was weighing the pros and cons. After a full minute, he sighed slightly: "Okay, I will prepare twenty average students for you. Elites with professional levels around level 15 will transfer their soul contracts to you at the same time, but it is better to draw up a contract before that..." (to be continued~^~)
