Chapter 1720: The Lord of the Demon Court
"Ugh...."
"Ugh......."
"well............"
Three sighs, each one longer than the last, were heard from the command center of the central barracks. The two demon gatekeepers outside the door looked very nervous. They turned a deaf ear to the sighs from inside and dared not make a sound, for fear of being used as a punching bag by their leader.
In the command center, a middle-aged man with greasy hair and powdered face kept pacing, looking as if he had lost his parents.
"What should I do? This person is definitely a ruthless person from the human race. He happened to catch me on my first shift. I can obviously return to the demon court in two years."
"No more monsters can die. If they die, there will be no one left. When the higher-ups investigate, they will still hold me responsible. I don't know when this plague god will leave..."
"Isn't it possible that humans are going to make a big move? Demon Lord, please don't let me get involved..."
"Hey...you two, come in."
Another long sigh was heard, and the following words made the two guards at the door turn pale.
It’s over, I heard something I shouldn’t have heard, and I’m going to be silenced!
But they had no choice but to obey their leader's orders and enter the headquarters with pale faces.
Not long after, two extremely similar-looking yellow cattle monsters stood in the command center, slightly lowering their heads to look at the floor, not daring to say a word.
"What are you two doing? You've been following me for quite some time. Don't you know what kind of person I am?"
The giant salamander looked at the two cattle and said with a slightly helpless tone.
The two oxen's expressions turned slightly better after hearing what the giant salamander said. What the giant salamander said was not wrong. Over the years, the giant salamander neither exploited his demon tribe nor trained them harshly. Instead, the giant salamander, the leader of the central barracks, could often be seen fighting with his soldiers, and he had a very good relationship with the soldiers.
Of course, there are rumors in the barracks that the giant salamander is warm on the outside but cold on the inside, and that it does this just to make them work better for it, and they are just brothers in name only.
"It is so difficult for the demon race to cultivate. Over the years, I have gone from being an unknown little follower to sitting in this position. What did I rely on? Is it talent? Is it background?"
"No! It's steady! As long as I'm not dead, there will always be a chance to come out on top. But even though I'm so cautious, someone still came to kill me. Niu Da, Niu Er, you two tell me, what should I do?"
It was obvious that the giant salamander called the second demon in not to vent its anger, but to collect opinions. The two oxen were stunned when they heard it, and the one on the left spoke weakly, "This is Niu Er."
"Chief, I think we should seek external help... So many brothers have died, even the chief's direct lineage..."
Huang Niu's voice trembled slightly. It was obvious that he knew how cruel the man in Shangyu Town was. He was afraid that his answer would not satisfy the giant salamander and he would be sent directly to Shangyu Town to deal with that human.
Huang Niu Niu Da on the right spoke next.
"If the leader thinks that seeking external aid is not a good idea, we will fight him to the death. No more monsters can die. If more monsters die, our central barracks will only exist in name only! Even if we fall, the higher-ups will definitely avenge us!"
It was obvious that Niu Da had a stronger personality. The more he spoke, the more confident he became. In the end, he even straightened his back, as if he wanted to take the lead in charging towards Shangyu Town.
"Hey, Niu Da, I told you before that you should learn more from your brother. If we go over there and get killed by that human, even if the higher-ups send people to avenge us, we'll still be dead. What if that human runs away? Wouldn't we have died in vain?"
"Niu Er, how do you think we should find foreign aid?"
After the giant salamander scolded Niu Da in a slightly stern tone, he asked Niu Er.
Niu Erda rolled his eyes and thought for a long time but couldn't come up with any good idea. The atmosphere suddenly fell into silence.
"Okay, I don't count on you two, you..."
Before the giant salamander finished speaking, Niu Da suddenly spoke.
"Chief, I have intelligence to report."
"Ok?"
After hearing what Niu Da said, the giant salamander raised his eyebrows and looked at Niu Da in confusion.
"explain."
"Some of my subordinates who are good at stalking and tracking have discovered that humans have appeared frequently on the boundary between Yaoyuan and Luocheng in the past two days. They also saw many younger humans heading towards the various refugee camps."
"Oh? Why did you tell me such important news only now?"
The giant salamander was shocked. This movement might be related to the plague god in Shangyu Town!
"Chief, didn't you say that we should turn a blind eye when we see humans active outside the demon plain? You also said that they came here just to hunt, and it would be useless to harm the demon beasts outside..."
The more Niu Da spoke, the colder the giant salamander's eyes became. Niu Er quickly poked Niu Da on the lower back, and Niu Da realized that the giant salamander's expression was not right, so he quickly shut up.
"Did I ever say such a thing? Humph! Even if I did, don't you know what's important and what's not? If you don't report such important information, if something goes wrong, you will be the first person responsible, understand?"
The giant salamander put the blame on Niu Da in just a few words, but Niu Da didn't dare to talk back and could only lower his head even lower.
"Niu Da and Niu Er, you two go to Jinding and tell them that you have discovered a large number of humans leaving the Demon Plain. Our central barracks has to take care of the refugee camp and we don't have the manpower to investigate. Ask them to send someone over and take them directly to Shangyu Town."
The giant salamander thought about it and gave an order. Niu Da quickly agreed, but Niu Er asked with doubt.
"Chief, we only found seven or eight humans. Isn't it a bit too large to say that they are a large number..."
"What are you afraid of? Just do as I say. If the Golden Summit can't deal with the Plague God, we can only report it to the Demon Court... But if we report it, we will have to go back early. You two know the consequences of going back early, right?"
The giant salamander spoke in a calm voice, but Niu Da and Niu Er suddenly shuddered.
"Yes!"
Niu Er quickly said yes, and then at the nod of the giant salamander, the two monsters left the command center.
Seeing the two leave, the giant salamander sighed again.
"It's difficult... It's difficult... It's so difficult to live."
After saying that, the giant salamander turned around and ran to the desk, took out a photo frame from the drawer like a thief, then took out an incense burner like a magician, and took out three incense sticks. After lighting them, he actually properly lit three incense sticks for the human whose side face was in the photo frame.
"Demon Lord, may you bless me...Demon Lord, may you bless me...Demon Lord, may you bless me..."
"Hiss... So, humans still don't know what the Demon Court Master looks like?"
"Yes."
In Sang Biao's office, Ye Ye and A Qi were chatting, and the conversation happened to be about the Lord of the Demon Court.
"I heard that the Demon Court Lord is not very powerful, but he is extremely intelligent. Many major events of the demon race were planned by him. Even the Demon Origin Lords of the major demon ore regions must obey his orders. Therefore, he is also well protected by the demon race."
"If we knew what the Demon Court Lord looked like, we would definitely give priority to killing him. However, up to now, no one knows where the Demon Court Lord is hiding or what he looks like."
Ah Qi seemed to know a lot of secrets and spoke seriously.
