The Haunted

Chapter 164: To be delusional

Views:

The original human auction was canceled. For these demons, it was like setting up a table full of Han Chinese, let everyone watch it for an hour, and choose the dishes they wanted to eat in advance. As a result, when they just wanted to use chopsticks, the table was full of delicacies. All were removed.

Naturally, most of the demons present were dissatisfied with this.

The staff in the theater euphemistically hinted at these noble demons, which is what His Majesty Lawrence meant. After most of the demons learned about this relationship, they reluctantly suppressed their appetite and did not dare to show their dissatisfaction. But there are also demons who are still uneasy, and look in the direction of Chi Yan and Ye Yingzhi unwillingly.

The situation of joint rule of hell protects the interests of most ordinary demons and lower-level demons, so it is supported by most demons in hell, but some demons have always been dissatisfied with this situation. These dissatisfied demons are mainly from upper demons and demon nobles, because after the establishment of the coalition government, although hell has been stabilized and unified, the power of these big demons has been restricted. The most direct point is that in the past, they could instruct the demons under their seats to go to the world to catch all kinds of delicious humans and bring them back for their enjoyment. After the establishment of the coalition government, the access to the world was officially guarded, and all demons had no reason to privately. Dive into the world. Ordinary demons themselves have little time to enter the human world for food, and are not too affected by this decree. As a result, the quality of life of the great demons is relatively greatly reduced.

In addition, in the past, the three sides of hell were opposed to each other and the order was chaotic. Many great demons could also dominate one side in their area and have great power, but after the establishment of the coalition government of hell, their almost separatist powers were forced to all was withdrawn. The power of these demons cannot compete with the three hell monarchs, and they can only obey the arrangement, but they will definitely be dissatisfied.

If it were a normal human, these demons might not care. But in today's hell situation, because of the influence of a series of laws, delicious and high-quality humans in hell are becoming more and more rare, even the upper demons are rarely seen, and one of the two humans sent today is obviously from the Soul to flesh and blood are very delicious. Many demons are very moved when they see it, and they are prepared to spend a high price to photograph the whole thing. If they give up like this, they will not be easily reconciled.

But these demons didn't dare to openly cause trouble under Lawrence's eyes. When they saw that most of the demons heard what Lawrence meant, they backed away and only dared to complain to the theater staff. After the show, hijack those two humans back - the blind filming of the theater has been cancelled, but the government has not issued a ban saying that in the future, high-level demons are not allowed to eat people like ordinary demons. They take people home and eat slowly, but it is reasonable and legal. Yes - in order to appease the emotions of the upper demons and nobles, the laws of hell still reserved many privileges for them.

The demon's eyesight is excellent, and Mona and Lawrence naturally saw the reactions of the demons in the background clearly.

"Your Majesty, I have already told the person in charge of the theater that they should ensure that all 'human beings' leave the theater safely. However, it seems that it is not easy to achieve. Those guys will definitely go to trouble His Majesty Aimer after the show is over. , I'm a little worried..."

"Ah, don't worry, Emer is not so easy to mess with." Lawrence just finished the first half of the sentence, he pondered for a while, and immediately turned into a worried expression, "But I'm also a little worried that Emer will get angry with me, I I'm afraid he'll destroy the theatre and Oyavis. I can't go to West Turquoise and get my revenge."

What's more, the Scarlet Twilight Theater is like his lifeblood, and he doesn't want to see his beloved theater suffer a little bit of damage.

The hell monarch in the north pondered for a moment, suddenly smiled, and looked at his palace director soothingly: "Mona, I thought of a good idea, relax, the situation is not so bad. Emer is not a hell storm, he There are weaknesses too, not as scary as you think."

At the beginning of the last performance, Chi Yan felt the faint peeping gaze from the front row in the dark, and couldn't help sticking a sticker in Ye Yingzhi's direction.

"Don't be afraid," Ye Yingzhi said softly, kissing his earlobe, "I'm here."

Chi Yan nodded, clasped Ye Yingzhi's hand, and held his ten fingers in the dark.

He understood what Ye Yingzhi wanted to do, an extremely risky and bold idea - Ye Yingzhi was posing as a demon, to be precise, he was disguising himself as a demon disguised as a human. As long as he can successfully convince the other demons here that he is a powerful but hidden demon, those demons will not dare to provoke him, and naturally they will not dare to rob the humans in his arms.

But now there is no makeup on the stage, and there are no fake magic horns and bone wings. What is even more different from the Devil's Theater is that the devils have pre-identified him as a human being, and the difficulty of successfully disguising is undoubtedly increased by more than a hundred times.

However, no matter how difficult or dangerous, he would choose to trust Ye Yingzhi and face him together.

At the end of the performance, applause continued for a long time in the grand theater on the upper and lower floors, and all the demons in the audience stood up to pay the highest respect to the performer and ruler. Amidst the warm applause, His Majesty Lawrence returned to the stage to play two short pieces, and took the stage to call the curtain three times before the applause slowly ceased. The demons in the other seats were still sitting there, and the upper-ranking demons and nobles in the front row on the first floor and the box on the third floor got up and left first.

The more attentive demons sitting in the first few rows of the first floor noticed that since the second performance, Lord Mona, the director of the palace, has never returned to his seat, and then contacted the routine blind shooting of humans and was suddenly cancelled. things, they vaguely guessed that there might be something unusual between them, so they chose to wait and see.

But there were also daring demons who were afraid that the food would be snatched away, and stood in front of Ye Yingzhi and Chi Yan's seats in order to come out on top.

Ye Yingzhi was already holding Chi Yan and was about to get up and leave, but after being blocked, he sat back calmly. This time, he simply took the human into his arms, resting his left hand on the armrest of the seat carelessly, and his right hand slowly And casually stroking the bare ankles of the person in his arms. Chi Yan willfully buried his head on Ye Yingzhi's chest, the whole body nestled in his arms, not saying a word.

As one of the oldest cities in hell, Oyavis still maintains many traditions. For example, in the theater, the order of departure must be strictly followed. The upper demons and nobles leave first, followed by the ordinary demons on the first floor, and then the second Ordinary demons of the tiers, while lower tier demons are not allowed to enter the theater. After the establishment of the Hell's Coalition Government, a series of unequal treatment of lower-level demons was abolished, but the habits formed over the years were not easy to change.

Seeing that a demon went up to stop the two humans, several other demons were also eager to get a share of the pie; some other demons saw that something was wrong and simply sat in place and waited to see further developments, so the upper demons and nobles suddenly Most of them stayed. The demons sitting in the front row didn't move, and the demons sitting in the back row traditionally waited and wouldn't get up. Under the chain reaction, almost no one left the thousands of spectators.

What stopped Ye Yingzhi was the superior demon Tunard. He was originally a demon lord in the northern region. Later, in order to save his life, he had to surrender to Lawrence. His territory was merged into Lawrence's rule, and he himself was sealed. Forced to live in Oyavis after a title of nobility and government inactivity. Tunard likes to eat people the most, but after losing his territory and power, his hobby was also restricted with the promulgation of new laws in hell. He has not seen such fresh and delicious human beings for a long time. Although he lost most of his capital, the superior demons themselves were all powerful, and Lawrence would not easily go to trouble with their recruited demon lords, so no one dared to provoke him in Oyavis.

In Tunard's view, he would save Lawrence's face by taking humans out of the theater and eating them.

"God, there is really a fool to find trouble with His Majesty Aimer. It's Tunard. Well, the demons next to him obviously have restless thoughts." Mona muttered in the background.

His voice was low, but Lawrence heard it anyway. The monarch of hell held his chin with his hand: "Although I am very reluctant, I probably still have to save that guy's life today. I am afraid that he can't be solved by Aimer like this."

Ye Yingzhi looked at the imposing demon in front of him, and obviously felt that there were many other demons watching them. The more urgent the situation, the more calm he was, without showing any signs of panic, his left hand tapped lightly on the armrest of the seat, and his right hand continued to play with the ankle of the human in his arms. sit on the throne.

He looked up at the demon in front of him and said calmly: "You said you want me and A Yan to go with you? Sorry, I'm not free recently, and I don't have the hobby of letting my people out. In fact, if I don't want to accompany this The little guy comes out to play, and I probably won't be in Onavius for another hundred years."

His voice was not loud, but the demons in the first few rows, including Lawrence and Mona who had used magic to eavesdrop in the backstage, could hear his conversation with Tunard clearly.

The demons who had felt the discord before had a stronger sense of discord in their hearts. This human has never revealed his identity, but he has always created a feeling for all demons that he is a demon himself, and is most likely a powerful but low-key superior demon. Only in this way can he be explained. That unusual momentum and calm attitude, and why they didn't even recognize who he was.

But it's also possible that someone recognized the other person's identity. Immediately, a quick-witted demon thought of Mona, the palace manager who disappeared. Mona followed His Majesty Lawrence around, participated in many important events, and met many rare heavyweights. He may have recognized it. The identity of the other party will suddenly leave the table, and the original human auction event will be cancelled.

The more obscure Ye Yingzhi was, the more the demons tried to use their imaginations to guess his identity, and those assumptions became more and more astonishing. Few demons believe that there are human beings so bold to pretend to be demons, and they have never seen such a human being. Several high-ranking demons frowned, feeling that Tunard's behavior was a little reckless, and at the same time secretly glad that the reckless person was not himself.

Of course, there are also demons who don't eat Ye Yingzhi's tricks, such as Tunad.

Tunard also noticed that he was attracting too much attention, and he knew that Lawrence had not left. He always thought that he was not afraid of Lawrence, but he was not stupid. Naturally, he didn't want to cause trouble under Lawrence's eyes, and he didn't want to do it so easily. Give up the rare food you fancy.

So he decided to make a quick decision, lowered his voice and said to Ye Yingzhi: "Humans, don't play tricks on me. I will give you a choice, immediately put down the humans in your hands, and I can let you go."

The flesh of this human should also be good, but his soul is too dark, dark and rich, full of coolness and evil, and it is impossible to see through, it is comparable to a demon. Tunard admitted that his soul was not as dark as the other party's. So it's not a pity that this person gave up.

Hearing the other party's words, Ye Yingzhi only felt a little heat in his ribs, as if something had been touched and wanted to break out of the ground. He raised his eyes for the first time, and his bottomless black eyes stared at him solemnly. The demon in front of him raised his mouth slightly: "What did you say?"

It's hard to describe the feeling. But Ye Yingzhi had always had a kind of confidence in his heart that he would definitely be able to take Ah Yan out of here safely. Surrounded by many demons, he really didn't feel panic and fear.

It seems that in the cognition in his heart, all the demons present here are nothing more than worthless things.

But now, something worthless was really standing in front of him to rob him of his feast.

audacious in the extreme.
