Volume 3: Artifacts Chapter 112: New Rules of Hell
The demon tyrant quietly left the temporary fortress and left a mark at the place where he had agreed to meet Luke. After waiting for about an hour, Luke arrived at the place where the tyrant had agreed to meet him.
This is an empty house. There used to be several slave demons living here, but now they have disappeared.
The tyrant tells Luke how the Golden Man came to see him.
"Millia's offer is very good. With the support of the Shining Gold, I should be able to take back my territory. If you need, I can also backstab them at any time."
After listening to the tyrant's words, Luke thought for a moment and then expressed his thoughts: "The complexity of the situation in Scorched Earth City is beyond my expectations. The situation seems to be very favorable to us. Since the Golden Man took the initiative to find you, I want to rearrange our action plan."
The demon tyrant asked, "My lord, what do you think?"
After thinking about his new idea again, Luke made up his mind and said to the demon tyrant: "I want to help you become the master of hell!"
The demon tyrant was shocked and said, "You must be kidding! Hell has never been unified from ancient times to the present. Many powerful demons have appeared in the past, but none of them could make the entire hell surrender."
"That's because their method is wrong, and the timing is wrong." Luke summoned a fireball and placed it in the air, and the firelight illuminated the dim house. Luke used magic to flatten a wall and drew the relationship map of the scorched earth city on it.
The Demon Tyrant watched very seriously. Although he did not believe that he had the ability to unify Hell, this man was Meteor, and there was nothing he wanted to do that he could not do.
The fiery heart beat violently in the demon tyrant's chest.
After Luke finished drawing the relationship diagram, he said, "During my time in Scorched Earth, I have been looking at this diagram. It explains why no demon can unify Hell."
"Why?"
"Because the classes in Hell are completely solidified, and a small number of demons rule over a large number of demon descendants. Now the Devil Maniacs are determined to launch a war of territorial expansion, and have also made a great wish to unify Hell. I believe that the Devil Maniacs can win many battles in the early stage with their equipment advantages.
These demon families that are subordinate to the Scorched Earth City will also expand rapidly with victory, but the Madman will never allow the demon families under his command to become too powerful. He will split the overly large demon families into countless small families.
So what will these demon families who fight for the lunatics get in the end?"
The devil tyrant said: "They get . Hell belongs to the devil. That's the rule!"
"Yes, this is the rule set by the devil. But when the devils find out that they fight for the madmen but get nothing in return, will they still fight hard on the battlefield in the future?"
The tyrant was silent.
Luke continued, "If the demons are unwilling to fight to the death, no matter how good their equipment is, it will be useless. The demon families are constantly splitting up. How loyal are the new demon families to the demon maniacs? Will the old demon families allow the new demon families to replace their positions?
I'm afraid that if they are randomly recruited by other demons, those demon families who have no future with the madmen will all run away."
The Demon Tyrant agreed with Luke's analysis. In fact, in his long life, he had seen many demons with the ambition to unify Hell, but they all failed in the end because of their internal collapse.
The tyrant believed that this was due to the suspicious and jealous character of the hell race. Demons had to guard against both demons and demon descendants. Even if they had eight hundred eyes and ears, it would not be enough.
But from what Yunxing said, it seemed that there were other reasons.
"Sir, do you have a solution to this deadlock?"
Luke said, "Of course!"
The tyrant asked eagerly: "How to do it?"
"Break the existing class restrictions in Hell and introduce a merit-based feudal system. In your eyes, there will no longer be a distinction between demons and demon descendants in Hell. All races of Hell that serve you will be on the same starting line."
Luke waved his hand, and the Scorched Earth City relationship diagram on the wall changed from a pyramid to a performance chart.
The tyrant saw on the chart that the demons and other hell demons were on the same level, and even the slave demons were on par with the demons.
"This... this is not allowed! Hell belongs to the devil, this is a rule that has been established since ancient times! If we do this, we will turn the whole hell upside down."
Luke stepped back and looked at his masterpiece, then smiled and said, "But the rules set since ancient times have never unified Hell. Since the rules are problematic, why not change them?"
The demon pointed at the chart and said, "What if the achievements of a demon clan surpass those of the demons? Should the demons become subordinates of the demon clan?"
"Why not? Just imagine being able to command demons. Your demon descendants will definitely go crazy and fight for you. Just imagine being able to obtain a family territory that belongs entirely to you. Your demon descendants will fight to the death to destroy all your enemies!"
The tyrant could not help but roar in anger: "But how can the devil kneel before the devil!"
"Why can't the demons kneel before the demon descendants?" Luke looked at the tyrant. Even though the demon in front of him was much taller than him, his aura was still above the demon: "Tyrant, the demons will not take the initiative to support you as the master of hell, but the huge number of demon descendants will use their heads to push you to an unprecedented peak.
Only when you smash the demon's dignity to the ground, the demon will kneel before you like a demon descendant!"
The tyrant looked into Luke's eyes and seemed to see another kind of hell.
Various complex expressions appeared and disappeared on the tyrant's face.
Finally he knelt on one knee before Luke.
"If demons need to kneel, then I will be the first demon to kneel." The tyrant lowered his head to Luke and completely exposed his neck. Exposing weakness is a symbol of submission: "Great Meteor! I can see that you are personally opening up a new era, an era that we have never experienced and cannot imagine.
I swear by my true name, Congreve Oxton Tyrant Melville Aldridge, that from this moment to the end of my life I will serve you as my sovereign."
The tyrant stretched out his hands, and a demonic contract was formed.
Luke placed his hand on the demon contract: "Although I don't know how binding this contract is on you, I believe that even without the constraints of the contract, you will still be loyal to me at all times."
The tyrant responded: "Yes, I am loyal to you at all times. A solid contract can reduce my hesitation and confusion in the face of temptation!"
Luke laughed and said, "Then let's make a contract!"
Luke's handprint was imprinted on the devil's contract, and the contract was rolled into a scroll and gathered into a ball of light. A chain tightly wrapped around the ball of light, and the two ends of the chain were connected to Luke and the Tyrant.
The contract was concluded, and the ball of light and the chains disappeared.
This was Luke's first time forming a master-servant contract, and he could feel an additional mark on his consciousness.
The tyrant stood up and said, "My Lord! What should our first step be?"
Luke erased the name of the madman on the wall: "Let's start by taking over Scorched Earth City!"
Seeing his name replace the madman, the tyrant said in astonishment: "Seizing the scorched earth city? We don't seem to have the strength to do so."
Luke smiled and said, "Your start is much better than mine in Raging Wave City. When the Shining Gold people come to you again, don't rush to agree to them. Talk slowly first, and leave the rest to me."
"Your will is obeyed, my lord!"
The tyrant left in a daze, feeling that during this brief meeting, his heart was as up and down as if he had fought another ancient war.
To disrupt the current order of hell is to put all demons against oneself.
This battle will definitely open up a new hell!
