Chapter 417 The last piece of the puzzle(1/4)
"Come on! Kill these demons! Otherwise none of us will be able to complete this month's target!"
"Damn! Is it over? Is this the seventh time today that a demon has rushed in to snatch souls?"
"Did Cyric, the new god of death in Toril, grow up eating shit? How come he doesn't even care? He's not as good as Melkor, the god of death of the previous generation!"
"That's it! This guy who just rose from mortal to god is simply unreliable! I have been working here for thousands of years. From the era when Jaeger was in power to the era when Melkor was in power, the Realm of Obscurity has never been like it is now.
It’s been such a mess.”
"I can't get through this day! I waste my time every day killing demons, how can I find the time to sign a contract with a mortal soul? If I don't meet the target, I won't be promoted, and I might even be demoted. No, I have to
Hurry up and find a way to apply for a change to another main material plane."
"Don't waste your efforts. Do you think there are not enough transfer applications received during this period? But have you ever seen any of them approved? So stop daydreaming and kill more demons quickly to prove that at least we are not lazy."
……
Accompanied by crazy complaints and curses, several groups of demons rushed out from the bottomless abyss to plunder souls. They would soon be driven out and killed by demons who were organized, disciplined, and knew how to work together.
Since the main force of the demons is currently focused on fighting a war of attrition against the Eldrazi in the third realm, all the incoming demons are low-level demons with no brains.
But in order to better lure mortals into signing contracts, Hell usually sends out middle- and lower-level devils with sufficient intelligence and patience.
Therefore, in terms of strength, they have an overwhelming advantage.
The only thing that makes the devils dissatisfied is that the devils killed here will not really die, but will return to their hometown in the abyss to wait for rebirth.
This is not as satisfying as killing the enemy once and for all on the bloody battlefield.
Some grumpy guys even took advantage of the seriously injured demon who fell to the ground before he could breathe, stepping on his head and spitting in his face to vent his inner dissatisfaction and anger.
You must know that in hell, failing to meet the performance targets assigned by your superiors is a very serious matter.
At worst, you will be reprimanded and ridiculed, at worst, you will be forcibly demoted and become a laughing stock in the eyes of your colleagues.
But now with the chaotic situation in the Hazy Realm, it is not easy to achieve the almost demanding target.
If it weren't for the fact that the devil must strictly abide by all signed contracts, he would have been able to grab it just like his mortal enemy, the devil.
Anyway, no one cares about the life and death of these mortal souls now.
When the last demon fell into a pool of blood, and all the plundered souls were rescued and were left shivering in place, the demons who were looking ferocious one second began to show off their unique skills in the next second.
p>
I saw these guys putting on what they thought were "amiable" and "friendly" smiles, taking out contract scrolls from nowhere, and began to sell those mortals who were still in fear to join the great hell camp.
The benefits.
A deceiver from the ninth level of the new life is currently transforming into a professional wearing a dress and gold-rimmed glasses. While showing the magnificent scene of the huge cyberpunk city through the illusion, he talks incessantly with words full of incitement.
The language of sex tells the various benefits that signing a contract can bring.
To this end, he also compared the kingdoms of many gods, and vividly described the sensory impact and spiritual enjoyment that those fine wines, food, beauty and chemical bliss can bring.
As for the price required to obtain these, as well as the hidden dangers, they were ignored as expected.
"My dear family!
What are you still hesitating about?
Look at this city with beautiful scenery, comfortable environment, and extremely developed magic and technology!
Take another look at the citizenship and voting rights granted by the great Lord Soth!
I can guarantee that you will experience unprecedented freedom and democracy here, which is a hundred times, a thousand times, or ten thousand times better than serving those selfish and authoritarian gods!
Moreover, there are special preferential policies for signing the contract now, and you can get a house for free, a three-day experience card that can be used to play in any entertainment venues in the city, and a mobile terminal that can bring you great convenience!
There is no need to enter the torture chamber to undergo painful torture and eventually be transformed into a member of the devil.
Quite the opposite!
You can maintain your current state, obtain a new real body in the ninth level of hell, and enjoy all the happiness just like you did before you were alive.
You can also decide who can become the official with power by casting your sacred vote according to your own preferences.
He even participated in the election to realize his inner ideals and ambitions.
There is no strict hierarchy or hierarchy!
There is no need for a good background and noble blood!
There is no backward system where the father dies and the son succeeds!
Everything is decided by people like you!
I swear!
How big your heart is, how big your dream is.
Because there are endless possibilities here!”
Along with the impassioned speech, countless mortal souls whose beliefs were not so firm in the first place were moved.
After all, that's what it means to go to the kingdom of gods and become a petitioner.
Not only must they continue to serve the gods or even participate in wars, but they may also be dragged into the star realm with the decline and death of the gods.
But going to the ninth level of hell obviously does not require you to fulfill these obligations. On the contrary, you can vent and indulge your desires to your heart's content, and do all the tricks you have not enjoyed in your life.
In addition, the system of elections through voting also allowed these people who were accustomed to feudalism, slavery, parliamentaryism, oligarchic dictatorship and other class-strict social forms to feel the hope of getting ahead for the first time.
So soon, hundreds of souls, under the bewitchment and instigation of the Deception Demon, signed contracts that were too complex for mortals to understand, and were eventually escorted by the Indulgence Demon to Baator Hell through a specific portal.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
They simply don't understand that the reason why Zuo Si allows mortal souls to live in the form of bodies in the cyberpunk city is actually to corrupt them and degenerate them more thoroughly.
In this way, if you throw it into the torture chamber and squeeze it, you can often squeeze out several times, ten times or even dozens of times more energy than before.
Because the higher the degree of corruption and depravity of a soul, the more happy memories it gains from indulging in desires, and the stronger the power that the hell plane can obtain from the original contract.
Therefore, Zuo Si is not like other devil lords who immediately want to squeeze out the souls of mortals after getting them.
He chose a completely different path of raising pigs, which is to give these souls a little sweetness first and let them sink in endless desires and thirst. They become more and more "fat" little by little, and at the same time use them as free labor.
Create value.
After the fruits of depravity are completely mature, they will be sent to the torture chamber one after another with the help of the cannibalistic nature of capital and the systems and laws established at its core.
Want to keep your soul body and enjoy a good life?
What a joke!
How can there be a free lunch in this world?
If there is, then the trap hidden behind it will definitely make you pay a very heavy price.
And those "special talents" who stand out in the brutal competition will have the opportunity to be directly transformed into high-level devils.
As the devil who is best at propagandizing and misleading among all the forces in hell, the Devil of Deceit is undoubtedly the best in language expression and emotional incitement, so he is the core executor of this process.
What's more, they didn't lie or cheat, they just told the truth selectively.
Looking at the envious, jealous and hateful eyes of devils from other levels at this moment, as well as the large number of souls who have signed contracts and are being sent to the ninth level, you will know how amazing the advantage of the deception devil is in this regard.
Of course, that huge city full of futuristic technology also played a huge role.
"Did you create those funny devils?"
Ogma, the god of knowledge who happened to be passing by, saw this scene and asked with interest.
Zuo Si smiled and nodded: "Yes. How about it? Isn't the work efficiency of the fraud demon very good?
Compared with those primitive devils who are proficient in personal psychology, they are better at social psychology.
That is to take advantage of the herd mentality of mortals, sign as many contracts as possible at once, and then send souls to hell in batches.
You know, I put a lot of thought into making them.
As for combat, the Deception Demon is a typical spell caster, good at large-scale control, immobilization, charm, mind invasion and various emotional manipulation spells.
In addition, there is also fire magic, which the devil is best at.
In close combat, the sharp claws and tail, as well as the countless mouths all over the body, can pose a huge threat to the enemy.
Especially those pair of fly-like compound eyes, which can accurately lock and capture multiple targets at the same time.
Most of the enemy's attack movements look like slow motion in their eyes."
"It is indeed quite perfect. It seems that you have unusually unique insights into the concepts of the evil lawful camp and the behavior of the devils." Ogma commented, stroking the beard on his chin.
You must know that the shape of the devil is not a strange thing that can be made casually like the abyss.
Under the strong lawful tendency, if you want to create a new type of devil, you must get the approval of the will of the hell plane.
In other words, this new type of devil must be distinctively representative, either to corrupt mortals more and faster, or to correspond to the weaknesses and evil aspects of human nature.
