Chapter 715 Demon Elder
The center of Magic City.
The outskirts of Demon King Ridge.
The temple where the one hundred and eight demon chiefs hold meetings.
A plume of black and green netherworld fire fell rapidly from the sky and transformed into the image of a demon with horns on its head and a slender body.
It was Prince Daly who was anxious to report the situation to the Council of Elders.
She hurried into the hall, looked around to confirm everything was correct, then knelt on one knee in front of the stone statue of the 108 demon leaders and bowed respectfully:
"An uncontrollable incident has occurred at the entrance to the 'Greed' area of the Ancient Basin. We request the Council of Elders to intervene!"
In the Demon Realm, apart from the seven mysterious Demon Lords, the remaining ones with top power and strength are the Demon King and the 108 Demon Elders.
They are called the Demon King and the elder, and they seem to be in a superior-subordinate relationship.
But in fact, the overall strength of the two sides is almost the same.
The combined power of the Council of Elders could completely crush the Demon King;
The Demon King alone can crush any demon elder in the Council of Elders.
The reason why the Demon Elder seems to be one level lower than the Demon King is mainly because the Demon Elder has to deal with all matters big and small in the Demon Realm and make plans for the overall development of the Demon Race.
The Demon King only needs to stay on the Demon King Ridge to improve his strength and control the entire Demon Realm.
If you want to see his true appearance, you can only wait until the demon tide breaks out and expands to the outside world, or when a prince launches a challenge and the demon king responds.
From a certain perspective, demons have more opportunities to come into contact with the Demon Lord than with the Demon King.
After all, as long as the former is "enjoyed by what he sees", he will be blessed.
The latter will never show up easily unless it is a critical moment.
Daly's voice echoed in the hall three times, and the silent stone statue finally responded.
Thick black-green mucus oozed from its surface, slowly dripping onto the ground like oil, before quickly rising up and solidifying into three strange figures in long robes.
Their appearance made the air in the entire hall thicker and thicker, like gel, making it difficult to breathe.
The leading demon elder stepped forward and spoke in a low and hoarse voice:
"Prince Daly, what happened in the Ancient Basin?"
Daly was still half-kneeling on the ground. She didn't hide anything and went straight to the point:
"Two challengers are about to pass the Road of Pain and receive the Demon Ancestor's reward..."
"Heh, isn't this a good thing... Why is it so uncontrollable that we need to take charge?" The other two demon elders also came forward and said.
"...If only my fellow Sanctuary members pass the level, then that would be a good thing." Daly continued:
"But the problem is that one of them is a mortal who has not been blessed by the great power..."
"Mortal?" The three demon elders interrupted, their tone slightly surprised, but still calm:
"It doesn't matter. The Demon Ancestor's projection has never given a precedent of rewarding a mortal. Even if this is a precedent, that mortal will eventually be assimilated into our compatriot."
"...But that mortal challenger did not enter the destination where the Demon Ancestor's projection was located." A hint of impatience appeared between Dai Li's eyebrows.
She really hated being interrupted again and again.
If it weren't for the special identity of the other demon elder and the urgent situation in the Ancient Basin,
She really wanted to stand up, raise her hand, give each of these three idiots a slap in the face, and teach them a lesson about manners!
"Didn't make it to the finish line?" The three demon elders' tone became more cheerful:
"Doesn't that mean you are still on the road of suffering, with your five senses still obscured by the miasma?"
"This doesn't count as clearance, Prince Daly... This is at most 'the possibility of clearance'."
Daly closed her eyes tightly, took a deep breath, and slowly opened them:
"Elder, that mortal challenger has entered a section we have never entered before, and is getting deeper and deeper!"
The three demon elders wanted to interrupt as usual.
But this time, Daley took it back by force with a stronger tone:
"Besides! That mortal challenger is carrying a tool that can unleash the power of hypocrisy. I'm worried that if I let him continue, it will cause irreparable damage to the Ancient Basin!"
A tool that can unleash the power of hypocrisy?
The three demon elders finally realized the seriousness of the problem, and their cloudy eyes widened.
After a long pause, a surprised and angry question was heard:
"How could you let someone like this into the Ancient Basin! Why didn't you tell me earlier?!"
Daly's mouth twitched, and anger appeared in her eyes.
She wanted to say it earlier.
But you old guys interrupted her eight times in one sentence, so how could she have the chance to speak earlier!
"The people were brought in by the three demon kings, Vladimir, Kagmo, and Bogang. I had just finished the game, so I didn't pay much attention to it." Daly explained quickly:
"But the mortal youth and the female succubus who entered the Ancient Basin at the same time to challenge him are in a master-servant relationship. If..."
"Master and servant? The kind where you sign a contract?" A demon elder took a half step forward, and his hood slipped off his head, revealing a head that looked like a toad.
"...According to the information I have heard, yes." Daly felt the veins on her temples throbbing.
"That mortal is a slave, right?" another demon elder immediately asked.
"...That's right." Daly frowned and nodded in response.
"Haha, it's okay, it's not a big problem, don't panic." The three demon elders breathed a sigh of relief:
"With the master-servant contract in hand, we only need to wait for the fellow succubus to come out and then talk to her."
"You could have handled this yourself..."
"But to be on the safe side and prevent any accidents, the three of us should go with you."
After saying that, the three demon elders slowly set off, drawing on their magic power and starting to teleport over long distances.
Daly also stood up from a half-kneeling position, with nether fire burning all over her body, ready to soar into the air.
But just as her feet were about to leave the ground, the maddening voice of the demon elder suddenly rang out:
"Prince Daly, this is the entrance to the 'Greed' area, right?"
"Yes……"
"Do you need us to give you a ride? The speed of teleportation is much faster than your flying with Hellfire..."
"no need……"
"Really? The outer area of Demon King Ridge is not close to the Greedy area. I remember that if you fly at full speed, it will take at least five or six minutes, right?"
"I have completed the Path of Pain and received a reward from the Demon Ancestor. I have improved a lot..."
"That's great... Are you also planning to challenge the Demon King at some point like Prince Aura did?"
Dai Li could no longer bear it, and the dark fire around her body surged, rising directly into the air:
“Three elders, the situation in the Ancient Basin cannot be delayed. Once we confirm that there is no problem there, we can discuss other things…”
"Otherwise, if the special force field of "War Blessing" is affected, neither you nor I can bear the responsibility!"
