In order to maximize his own advantages, he did not use those flashy skills, just a simple and powerful heavy chop, which can also be called the "New Year's Sword Technique".

Although it is simple and does not require much skill, it is very effective in combat.

Even if you face a heavily armored target, as long as you can successfully hit it, it will cause considerable damage to the opponent.

But just a second later, everyone present was stunned to see that Zuo Si easily caught this heavy blow with only two fingers.

Even if the guard exerted all his strength, his arms were shaking slightly uncontrollably, and his whole face was red from holding back, he couldn't make the blade advance an inch further, and he couldn't pull it back either.

Anyone who is not a fool can see that there is an insurmountable gap between the two in terms of strength and reaction.

Clem, who was exercising hard every day, had his pupils dilated to the limit and was blinking desperately to figure out what happened in just one hundredth of a second.

Just when everyone in the room fell into silence, a faint sound suddenly came from the sword.

Click——click——click——

Before anyone could react, dense cracks like spider webs appeared on the surface of the half-handed sword used by the guard.

The next second...

Bang!

The entire sword suddenly shattered and turned into countless metal fragments falling to the ground.

The guard holding the sword didn't know whether he used too much force or lost his strength. He collapsed on the ground with a plop, his face full of shock and disbelief.

Especially the part of the Broken Sword that was dented by his fingers, made him feel that he was not facing a human being, but a terrifying monster wearing human skin.

"How about it, Your Highness, you should believe that I am an adventurer now, right?" Zuo Si asked with a smile.

"Of course...of course! Of course I believe it!"

Zanak swallowed with a gulp.

Crushing a fine steel half-hand sword forged by the royal family with your bare hands?

This kind of strength is probably beyond the realm of heroes, and is obviously something that can only be achieved by the strongest person at the top of the human race.

He is not a fool. How could he not know how terrifying such a person is? It is estimated that only the warrior captain Gazef can barely resist twice after wearing the royal secret treasure.

When Lana saw this, she couldn't help but pursed her lips with a playful smile, and threatened in a tepid tone: "Dear brother, if it were me, you would restrain your excess curiosity.

.

You must know that in this world, it is not a good thing to know too many secrets that you should not know.

I believe you don’t want to suddenly wake up like those nobles before and find a bloody human head next to your pillow, right?

Also, don’t think that you are safe if you live in the palace.

For a truly strong person, killing you is actually no different from crushing an animal.

Remember, keep what just happened in your stomach and don’t reveal a word to anyone.”

After saying this, the princess raised her hand and patted the slightly fat face of the second prince, and a terrifying light burst out from her eyes.

You know without asking that she is using a basic low-level evil spell [deception].

This magic allows the caster to gain a huge advantage when bluffing, negotiating and intimidating the target.

Poor Zanac couldn't bear this. He was so frightened that he almost peed his pants. He felt that his "monster" sister was like a man-eating demon at this moment. His entire psychological defense was instantly defeated and he didn't even dare to

If there is any hesitation, quickly make a promise, and then run away with his guard who was also frightened by the magic.

It is estimated that after leaving a psychological shadow, he will not dare to approach Lana again for a long time.

Seeing this little fat man stumbling and crawling all the way, Zuo Si couldn't help laughing and commented: "Your brother is very interesting. I think he will definitely bring us a lot of meaning in the next plan."

Unexpected fun."

"Why don't you let me just kill him?"

Nora asked with a puzzled look.

"If you kill him now, those nobles and the forces of the Eight Fingers will fully support your other brother's rise to power, and may even launch a coup to put you under house arrest or even kill your father.

If force is directly used to seize power, the kingdom will be plunged into turmoil, unrest and weakness for a long period of time.

This goes against our plan.

What's more, I'm looking forward to his performance in this power game and the light that may bloom in his soul.

Dear Lana, you must understand that to the devil, the quality of souls is as important as the quantity.

If setting up a game can stimulate the potential of a mortal's soul, then don't be stingy about doing it.

Because one dazzling soul can bring far more benefits than hundreds or even thousands of ordinary souls combined.

So try your best to cultivate people who you think have potential in their souls.

Give them a stage to display their talents, improve their ideological realm and consciousness, let them constantly wander between hope and despair, and finally bloom the most beautiful flower of sin.

Only in this way can we gain unprecedented satisfaction when harvesting."

Zuo Si very patiently taught the young princess in front of him how to be a good devil.

Because he felt that the other party really had great potential. As long as he was properly trained, he could grow into a member of the Great Devil, assisting him in managing the huge territory on the ninth level of hell and handling various complex political and diplomatic affairs.

"Soul..."

Lana subconsciously glanced at Clem, who returned to stand guard at the door. She seemed to have understood something, and a chilling light shone in her eyes.

You don’t need to ask to know that this ignorant young man’s soul also contains a dazzling shining point.

If she is trained well and eventually falls in pain and despair, she will be able to obtain a truly perfect "loyal dog".

After finishing his conversation with the Golden Princess, Zuo Si was not in a hurry to leave this world. Instead, he found a deserted place and summoned several Hell Fiends and thousands of low-level devils.

Then order each high-level devil to lead a group of low-level devils to other countries and regions in the world to conduct business.

Compared with humans, aliens and demi-humans are the overwhelmingly numerous groups in this world.

In addition, these devils are also tasked with collecting intelligence.

Before letting players in in large numbers, Zuo Si hopes to first understand the general situation and distribution of forces in the world.

……

At the same time, far away in the adventurer's hotel in E-Rantel.

Old Bones finally got what he wanted. After paying two valuable magic items, he successfully hired a team composed of players.

He thought that the other party did not know his identity at all, and wanted to use the period of employment to get information.

Little did he know, these guys with hair that were smarter than monkeys had already confirmed his identity, and the two sides were wildly exchanging acting skills along the way.

Players deliberately conceal part of the arcane and divine information they possess, and even hide all their trump cards.

They cried about poverty and misery whenever they had free time, and even deliberately contacted other players to play bandits and robbers, causing themselves heavy casualties in the battle, trying to get more wool from the old bones.

Only two days after the team set out, the latter unknowingly paid for a lot of magic potions, scrolls and items.

Although Old Bones can be considered a relatively shrewd and cautious person, he has never played this kind of group fraud before. He was completely led by the nose and did not notice the fishy nature at all.

On the contrary, he felt that in order to protect himself, the adventure team fought with so many powerful enemies, all of them were injured, but they could only get so little reward, and he felt a little bit sorry.

When night fell and the team began to camp in the wild, Old Bones found an opportunity to pull Sebastian aside and asked in a low voice: "Where are Soliusiang and Shalltear now? How far are we from?

How far is it?"

"They are already in place. As long as you give the order, they can launch an attack at any time to test the true strength of these adventurers."

Sebastian gave the answer without thinking.

Obviously, the real intention of Old Bones in hiring players is not only to inquire about information, but also to take this opportunity to test the top combat power of the Great Tomb of Nazarick and the opponent's performance in battle.

After all, in battles, you have to fight first before you know the outcome.

Especially since players have mastered so many magics that they have never heard of or seen before.

As the top combat power among all max-level NPCs in the union, Shalltear is obviously one of the protagonists of this test.

In addition, there is another reason why Lai Gu Gu cannot determine the true level of these players through simple communication.

After pondering for a moment, he finally raised his head and said: "Then let them do it tonight. Remember, don't reveal your true identity."

"Understood!"

Sebastian obviously made a slight frown, as if he did not agree with this despicable and shameless behavior.

As one of the very few NPCs in the guild who is extremely good, he is actually quite dissatisfied with all the other evil companions in the Great Tomb of Nazarick.

If he hadn't been absolutely loyal, a normal person would have rebelled or even run away.

Especially whenever I hear guys like Albedo and Demiurge using words like "human beings" and "inferior creatures" on their lips, without concealing the evil in their hearts, Se is filled with fear.

Bastian had the urge to push him to the ground and beat him violently.

There is no doubt that this is a very obvious internal crack.

It's a pity that Old Bones, who is now full of other thoughts, didn't notice it. Instead, he continued to play his role as a rich young man and returned to the camp to get close to the players.

After a simple dinner, he returned to the carriage and pretended to rest.
To be continued...
