Indeed, if you think about it carefully, the behavior of Boyent who persuaded Falsiliz to ascend the throne of the Demon King is indeed very suspicious—as one of the few demons who have flourished in the circle of human power, he would be so keen on The reorganization of the Demon King's army is itself extremely suspicious.
Although after returning to this world, Xu Shenxing has never met the "Xingrui Boyent" who is also one of the four demon generals, but fifteen years ago, in the process of fighting wits and courage with the demon king's army. , He has played against each other more than once.
Of course, the finger-pointing here is more of a battle of wits and courage, rather than a hard fight—otherwise the opponent would have been slashed by Xu Shenxing's sword, how could there be so many things...
Even fifteen years ago, Xu Shenxing's strength was not as strong as it is now, but only "strong" in the general sense, but even so, if it was one-on-one... no, even one-on-three , Hacking that guy named Boyent had no difficulty.
Because although Boyent, Falsiliz, and Zoroja are both the Four Demon Generals, they are the weakest single one. As a rare double-headed demon, Boyent only has a certain degree of attainment in spiritual power and runes. The real reason why he can be included in the four demon generals is simply because he is one of the few in the demon king's army. The wise man has always been a role as a think tank in the Demon King's army. Of course, it can also be said to be the dog-headed military advisor of the Demon King at that time...
To be honest, that guy does have some skills, and Xu Shenxing's mortal wisdom really couldn't play against him back then. If it wasn't for the fact that there was a wise man in the brave team at that time, he could have seen through some of the bureaus he set up in the early stage, and Xu Shenxing didn't bother to care about the opponent's schemes in the later stage, so he used his strength to force his way through, forcefully letting everything of that guy go. If all the calculations fail, it will be a bit troublesome.
It was precisely because the group of people showed their strength at that time that the then Demon Lord Alina came to the conclusion that she was not the opponent of the Salvation Army, and voluntarily surrendered to avoid the worst situation.
Only in this way, the demons who were malicious to humans were also preserved, and finally the situation today was formed.
"Well, 'Zoroya the Burning Blood', 'Farsiliz the Steel Jade' and 'Boyent the Star Rui'..." Xu Shenxing counted with his paws: "Wait, the agreed four How come there are only three magic generals so far?"
"That's right, when we fought all the way to the Demon King's City, we met only three demon generals... I always thought that the fourth demon would be the finale of the Demon King's army, and he stayed in the Demon King's City all the time. As a result, after breaking through the guards and organs of the Demon King City, I ran into Elina directly."
Even Finn slapped his palm, showing a dazed look.
I said you have lived with the devil for fifteen years, but you haven't felt strange about it until now
Xu Shenxing looked at the bewildered opponent feebly.
"The ability of the fourth magic general named 'Invisible Sixth' is more like intelligence search, which is equivalent to having the ability of invisibility for an infinite time, but he has almost no combat power. It is really because of this that he hardly You will be in an invisible state, it’s normal that you haven’t seen him, even the last time I saw his real body was nearly twenty years ago... At the beginning, your movements were all controlled by him.”
Alina carefully explained to Xu Shenxing.
Our protagonist suddenly felt that an old trough was stuck in his throat, but he couldn't spit it out...
"All in all, the first task now is to find Boyent, right?" Finn glanced at Farsiliz who seemed to have no intention of continuing to struggle, and asked Xu Shenxing who started to lick his fur like a cat .
"That's the problem. It's very difficult to find that guy. I remember that fifteen years ago he was always huddling in a safe place like a turtle, and it was hard to catch." Xu Shenxing sighed, a little helpless, he Now I really hope that the former think tank can appear by my side. If that guy is there, I might be able to catch Boyent's revealing feet all at once: "Not to mention that we are in the light now, and that guy is in the dark. It's impossible If that is the case, I can only step forward and defeat the main force of the Demon King's army in one go. Since that guy has put in so much effort to reorganize the Demon King's army, if the Demon King's army shows signs of falling apart, he will definitely not be able to resist jumping out."
In the end, all Xu Shenxing could think of was this simple and rude method.
But in many cases, the simpler the method, the more miraculous it can be.
"If you did that, I'd have a really bad headache."
Except for the three people (two people and one cat) and Falsiliz lying on the ground, in the hall that should have been empty, a young man's voice sounded again.
Different from Finn's simple, simple, and standard knight voice with a sense of justice, this somewhat shrill voice gave people an eerie and slippery feeling inexplicably.
"Oh, is our Xingrui finally willing to show up?" Xu Shenxing squinted his cat's eyes, staring at the position next to the Demon King's throne.
Even if the other party used some special vocalization methods to make the voice come from all directions, for Xu Shenxing, this little trick had limited effect, and he discovered the real body of the other party at once.
"Is that guy actually here... Tsk, but as a think tank, it's normal to appear beside the Demon King." Finn pulled out the long sword on his waist at once.
It can be seen that his impression of Boyent is not very good.
What's more, that guy is suspected to be the mastermind of kidnapping Finn's daughter, so it's no wonder that Finn, who has always been a good guy, will take it seriously.
"Long time no see, Lord Demon King, and the two who used to be brave."
Boyent also seemed to have recognized Xu Shenxing's true identity from the conversation just now, so when he revealed himself from the side of the throne, he greeted the three of them with a human aristocratic salute.
Unlike Farsiliz, Boyent still appeared in human form. His human appearance is a very refreshing and handsome man with short white hair and squinting eyes. His appearance is about thirty years old. Compared with Finn, his figure is thinner, but his face is a little more handsome than Finn's.
"So, Boyent, do you have anything to say?" Alina looked at her former subordinate and asked straight to the point.
"Fifteen years ago, I always believed that wisdom could defeat strength." Boyent seemed to have not understood the hidden meaning in Elena's words, and he really talked to himself: "Until Your Excellency appeared— "
He stared at Xu Shenxing, but because his eyes were squinted, Xu Shenxing couldn't see what the other person's eyes meant.
"You shattered all my arrangements with your pure power: guiding public opinion to make fools suspect you, sowing discord so that human authorities secretly persecute you, and meticulously planning countless traps on the battlefield... nothing Not even the slightest hesitation, nor even the slightest bit of confusion, that kind of smashing everything with absolute power, made me realize for the first time that when the power reaches a certain level, it is difficult to fight against pure wisdom."
Boyent’s words seemed to be full of admiration and longing for Xu Shenxing’s style of “time is tight, talk first and talk later” at that time: “At the same time, I finally understand that in order to achieve my wish, I need a stronger This is the main reason why I have been running everything silently for so long in anonymity among humans."
"Are you going to stall for time with these tirades?"
Finn asked abruptly.
"Almost, of course, if you want to hit me right now, you can do so."
Boyent admitted without hesitation.
That kind of reckless attitude made the former Demon Lord Elina frown.
"What the hell are you planning?"
"Don't worry, listen to me slowly..." Boyent curled the corner of his mouth, as if enjoying the current situation.
Xu Shenxing looked at all this noncommittally—anyway, according to various ACGN laws, 99% of the villains, no matter how strong their strength and capital, will be reversed by the protagonist after the commentary...
"Then, to fulfill my ambition: to reconquer this world and rebuild the Great Demon Realm based on this, what level of strength is needed? Because there are not many known conditions, the answer is somewhat general, but in simple terms, it is' Power that won’t be defeated by the brave.” Since the former Demon King, Elena-sama, is no match for the heroes, I just need to gain more power than Elena-sama—so, I rebuilt the church.”
"What?!" Finn looked shocked.
The church was rebuilt by a demon? This is a big joke...
"Are you surprised? But I found some very interesting things in the original church's books... such as the method of strengthening one's own strength through the belief of believers." Boyent shrugged, and then his eyes fell on him again. Xu Shenxing: "Of course, only this level can't win against the brave... At least, it can't win against you at that time. So, I made some down-and-out demons and demihumans autonomously, and let them start to selectively breed monsters. "
"..."
Alina's face was a little gloomy.
"Remember, my dear Lord Demon King, although your main subjects at that time were all demons like us, when you conquered the world for the first time, when you made this world into a decoration for the Great Demon Realm, you relied on The army of 100,000 monsters brought from the Great Demon Realm... Yes, surprisingly, that Lord Demon King who seems to have powerful and terrifying magic power is actually just a harmless summoner. Under the back-feeding of the magic contract, it is collected from monsters, right? After all, even if a hundred thousand monsters are low-level monsters, each one back-feeding 1% is enough for a person to have the strongest monster in this low-level world. the magic."
Boyent laughed loudly: "It's just that you released those 100,000 yuan ancestor monsters into the wild, but I sent people to capture most of them, and then set up a breeding ground for monsters in the deep mountains and old forests. , As for the food of the monsters... human rights are really a good thing, after having the rights, no one will care about where the slaves I bought and the untouchables who disappeared in the territory have gone."
Finn and Alina looked at the lunatic Boyent with unkind eyes.
"Don't look at me like this, did I tell you? The me now is completely different from before... There are a million monsters under my command! My power is already ten times that of you, Lord Demon King! And now those millions of monsters are rushing to the battlefield... Tsk tsk tsk, I just have almost nothing to feed them, this battle is so timely, after all, everything is lacking on the battlefield, but there is no shortage of corpses, right?"
At this time, Xu Shenxing stood up as if he had woken up, and shook the hair on his body.
"Finn, are you okay with dealing with this lunatic?" He asked the Finn and his wife, "Over there on the battlefield, I will take care of it."
"Leave it to us." Finn and Alina looked at each other, then smiled confidently and nodded to Xu Shenxing.
Seeing this, Xu Shenxing didn't bother to continue talking to that lunatic, so he let go of his feet and ran towards the direction of the battlefield.
"Hey, didn't you listen to me? That's a million monsters! And I've already killed all those primordial monsters, you have no chance of winning!"
Seeing Xu Shenxing's unhurried and calm appearance, Boyent couldn't help being angry, and shouted at them: "And you two, don't you think you can win me! Now I , but it has the magical power fed back by millions of monsters!"
"Although I don't know how strong the magic power fed back by millions of monsters is, I'm still a little disappointed... I thought you would be smarter, but I didn't expect that you are still the same as the stupid bishop before."
Alina smiled coldly, with a casual mocking look, quite like a big sister.
"What..." Boyent was furious.
"When did you have the illusion that those bastards in the Great Demon Realm would let a summoner with no fighting power conquer this kind of world as a demon king? And when did you have the illusion that the monsters in the Great Demon Realm would obediently obey the words of a weak person ?” Alina continued.
Boyent suddenly realized that he seemed to have made a mistake.
That's right, the monsters in the Great Demon Realm are not kind creatures. Even if they are tamed, they will still bite their master back if given the chance.
But the original Demon King has never encountered such a situation... It might be better to say that the obedience of those monsters is a bit too much.
Pure black magic power emerged from Elina's body again, but this time it was thicker and darker than before.
"There is only one answer. Those 100,000 monsters were all overwhelmed by my strength! And I have never signed any contract with any monster, because that would have no benefit other than polluting my magic power... In other words, I, Much stronger than those hundred thousand monsters combined! Not only that, that Your Excellency is stronger than me, a mere million monsters... Heh, your ambition has gone in the wrong direction from the very beginning!"
