A sneeze destroys a magical civilization Text volume As Kazira and his spiked demon army officially join the camp of Archduke Bilaire, all the powerful senior officials in the fourth level of hell
The devils have already taken sides.
Although there are still some losers who are still wavering, or they want to wait until the situation is completely clear before flattering the winner.
But their power is too weak to have any impact on the overall situation.
Therefore, both Bilaire and Filna chose to ignore this group of "miscellaneous fish", and unanimously led their huge demon army to approach the opponent's location.
Overall, the former, as the "regent", clearly has an overwhelming numerical advantage.
More than 70% of the devils on this level chose to swear allegiance to the former lord.
After all, he is old enough and has rich experience in ruling, so he is obviously more trustworthy than Fierna, who was only brought to power as a puppet after the Great Purge.
But the disadvantage is that the devil army under Bilaire is too bloated, and there are all sorts of guys in a mess. It is impossible to know which ones are truly trustworthy, and which ones are pretending to surrender due to formality. In fact, they are secretly flirting with Fierna.
, and even worse, secretly conveying important information.
This means that he must not encounter setbacks, nor can he afford to lose.
Otherwise, the hidden internal problems will begin to explode continuously, eventually leading to a snowballing collapse.
In contrast, although the number of legions controlled by Fierna is less than half that of her father, it is better because she has promoted them one by one with her own hands through the power she gained through gaming as a lord.
These newly promoted high-level devils know very well how they got their power and status.
If it were Grand Duke Bilaire who came to power, there is a high probability that all these would be taken away, and he might even face the humiliation of being demoted. Therefore, loyalty is often very high, and his performance is poor in the face of huge external pressure and threats.
Extraordinarily united.
Some Hell Fiends have even carried out all-round three-dimensional reinforcement of the castles, palaces and fortresses they control, and are preparing to use these defenses to delay after the failure of the first battle, in order to find foreign aid or wait for the Lord of Hell.
Prepare for Asmodeus's intervention.
However, they didn't know that Fierna had already used the big devil's best skills to connect and form alliances in private, and then placed spies and even assassins in the opponent's camp, and finally found the right time to win at the minimum cost.
Fruit.
There is no doubt that compared to the large-scale and brutal civil war that breaks out between the plane lords, this is the most respected method of political and power struggle in hell.
If ultimately successful, the entire case will be included in political textbooks for all devils who have reached a certain level to learn and refer to.
In terms of learning advanced experience and summarizing lessons, the devil is infinitely better than the devils.
Generally speaking, most of the conspiracies can only be used once in hell.
If you use it for the second time, there is a high probability that your opponent will see through it or notice it in advance.
Fortunately, Zuo Si, the airborne ninth-level lord, is not like other devils. He has been studied repeatedly in long-term battles and games.
In the eyes of lords from other levels, he has too much mysterious aura surrounding him, and he is often not in his own territory. Therefore, many devils are a little confused about what the prince of hell is thinking about, his character, and ambitions.
, what are desires and goals?
Coupled with the fact that Gracia is on the side to attract firepower like crazy, the whole plan can proceed so smoothly.
At this moment, Fierna, the titular lord of the fourth level, is sitting in the legion camp, watching the endless demon army building a city wall outside.
Unlike demons who have no discipline at all and only know how to vent their instincts and desires by burning, killing, looting, and just starting to do it when they meet, demons have strict discipline that mortals cannot imagine.
Especially during a war, when you arrive at the front line and come into contact with the enemy, you will not immediately launch an attack. Instead, you will first build a series of solid fortifications that can be attacked in advance and defended in retreat.
In this way, they can use these fortifications to develop many sophisticated tactics that dazzle the enemy.
Therefore, when two hostile demon legions met, in addition to sending out necessary reconnaissance teams to find out the other side's true identity, both sides were engaged in civil engineering work in full swing.
Those who knew it were the devils habitually building fortifications to stabilize their rear, but those who didn’t know thought they were building a city in a competition.
A large amount of hot magma is continuously fished out from the river of flames that can be seen everywhere on the fourth floor, and then shaped and cooled through magic, and finally built into an integrated rock wall that is more than ten meters or even dozens of meters high.
As for thickness...
It is basically a no-brainer to use brute force to punch through it. Even if it is hit repeatedly by meteor storms falling from the sky, it will never collapse easily.
Moreover, the interior has been cut into more than a dozen layers inside and outside for the convenience of defense, and there are tunnels hidden two to three hundred meters deep underground.
From the other end, the retreat route of the defenders in front can be completely blocked.
The reason for this design is mainly to prevent the devils from their good habit of immediately choosing a "strategic retreat" when they find that the battle situation is unfavorable to their side.
As long as the retreat is blocked from the other side, the defenders will have no choice but to fight to the last man, causing huge damage to the enemy.
Even if a military fortress of this level is placed on the battlefield of World War II, it can withstand heavy artillery and aerial bombs. It is definitely a nightmare for the attacker.
If Zuo Si saw this scene, he would definitely lament that these devils are a bit humiliated by not contracting for project construction.
His ninth level has fully unleashed the devil's potential in this area, continuously contributing to the expansion of the huge cyberpunk city day and night.

While crazy construction was going on in the camps on both sides, the teams sent out to conduct reconnaissance also began to fight in the broad three-dimensional space of the fourth level.
In just a few hours, thousands of devils died forever in this area filled with flaming rivers and erupting volcanoes.
Although most of them are low-level little devils with the ability to fly, they are not even an appetizer for real combat.
But the tense atmosphere on the eve of the war has already shrouded the blood-red sky.
Tens of thousands of hellhounds also spread out on the flaming plains, chasing and biting each other, intertwined with a large number of flames possessing thinking and wisdom, forming an extremely spectacular scene.
Fortunately, both devils and hellhounds are immune to fire damage. Otherwise, if they were other mortals from the material plane, they would probably be burned to death within a few minutes by these inescapable flames, which are like gangrene on the bones.p>
"How long will it take for us to complete the construction of the fortifications?"
After being silent for a long time, Fierna asked her subordinates.
This female great devil has a statue-like perfect body, and unlike her father Bilaire, who has a ferocious and weird face, it is instead very delicate and three-dimensional.
Her skin is slightly dark, revealing an indescribable beauty and sexiness. There is a pair of small horns on her forehead, and the devil's unique red alluring light shines out of her eyes. She is obviously wearing an exquisite and luxurious silk dress, but...
It gives people a very debauched feeling.
In fact, for a long time, Fierna gave people the impression of being a social butterfly with a naughty and flattering personality. She ostensibly succumbed to her father's will and was keen to play with beings who were weaker than herself.
But behind the scenes, she is actually a master of conspiracy. She has been secretly planning how to seize power from her father until she becomes the fourth level like her so-called "best friend" Gracia.
A true lord worthy of the name.
The reason why the word "best friends" is put in quotation marks comes from the fragile plastic sister-like friendship between these two female devils.
Although Fierna was always jealous and obsessed with Gracia's huge power and growing strength, she always felt that the other party relied on "Father" and the protection of Asmodeus.
Obtained everything today.
But she had to fight with her father to seize the dominance of the fourth floor.
With such a huge psychological gap, let alone an evil devil, even a human being would be seriously unbalanced.
Therefore, the feelings between the two parties are very complicated and twisted.
Fortunately, under the guidance of her father, Archduke Bilaire, Philna has mastered the essence of "love and pain". She also learned disguise and forbearance during her days as a puppet, so the cooperation has always been quite good.
Pleasant.
Occasionally, she will use the skills she has learned to satisfy Gracia's never-ending desire.
Since both parties are female, both are still so young, and both had some unpleasant experiences with their fathers, they naturally developed into a close alliance.
Even though Archduke Bilaire later discovered that Gracia secretly instigated his daughter to resist him, he tried every possible means to separate the two, but in the end they all failed without exception.
He didn't realize at all that from the moment she became the nominal lord of the fourth level, Fierna's ambitions began to expand uncontrollably.
Even if there is no instigation from Gracia, the latter will continue to try to seize power.
The conversations about "independence" time and time again are the best proof.
"Lord, according to the reports from each legion, we can complete the basic construction of the city in about seven hours at most.
However, considering that our troops are at a disadvantage, I do not recommend that you take the lead in attacking.
After all, the attacker usually suffers more casualties than the defender.
On the contrary, it is wisest to choose to defend first and wait for the situation to turn around."
A hell-fiend general stood up and spoke his point of view carefully.
