The magma river suddenly surged up, and countless bubbles bubbled up from the bottom of the river. When Lily saw this situation, she yelled and jumped ten meters away: "What did I poke out?!"
The others immediately looked at the tumbling viscous liquid with full vigilance. Hao Ren stood in front of Nangong Wuyue with a shield: The sea demon girl is usually good at defense, but in this hot and dry place, she has become the most self-protective person in the world. The least capable one. After the magma river rolled violently for more than ten seconds, it suddenly made a strange snoring noise, and a gigantic monster suddenly stood upright from the hot magma!
This monster has a roughly human appearance, but its whole body is formed by hot magma. Its upper body is three to four meters high when it stands upright. It stands upright on the river unsteadily. A sense of bewilderment: it kept turning its head in all directions, as if it was searching for breath in the air, huge magma droplets dripped from its body into the river following the monster's movements, splashing white smoke.
When Hao Ren saw this "creature" that seriously challenged common sense, he felt his scalp tighten: "What is this?"
"Don't be afraid, it's just a lava monster," La Nina told everyone to step back, then frowned at the magma creature, and asked uncertainly, "Bolu?"
The huge lava demon "heard" these two syllables and reacted immediately, bent slightly in the direction of La Nina, and let out a series of grunts of unknown meaning. La Nina took a few steps back to prevent the magma on this guy from dripping onto her head, and then communicated with the other party with that weird grunting sound.
"These two know each other?" Hao Ren touched Y'zaks' arm, "What are they talking about?"
"I don't know," Yizaks scratched his big bald head, "The lava demons are low-level creatures with poor intelligence. I used to train them to be the guards of lava lakes everywhere, but among the demons, only La Nina can communicate with them like this. The reason is unknown."
Hao Ren looked at La Nina who was chatting with a cloud of magma in amazement: "...as a succubus, why are her skill points all in such weird places?"
Y'zaks shrugged: "Maybe there's something wrong with my education..."
At this time, La Nina finally communicated with the lava demon named "Bolu". The latter sank back into the magma river with a snort, and La Nina reported the bad news worriedly: "Theraton has basically controlled this place. His legion is in a stalemate with the Holy See coalition forces near the Obsidian Plain, and the two sides don't know the end Fighting for something, anyway, his soldiers are everywhere here."
"This place used to be the territory of the big man." Vivienne frowned, "How about your former troops?"
"Basically, those who survived have fled to other dimensions, and those who stayed here have already betrayed," La Nina said with little emotion when she said this. "Most mid-level and lower-level demons have no loyalty. Whoever has the biggest fist is the boss. When we meet now, they are all enemies. But there is good news: Selaton still doesn't trust those demons who have just rebelled. Arranged in the Red Peak area, which is far away from the Obsidian Plain, we basically won't meet those guys."
Hao Ren heaved a sigh of relief. Those rebellious demons are the biggest threat: they can recognize La Nina's appearance, and they may even sense the breath of Y'zaks, once they meet. Those demons are more dangerous than the soldiers of Seladon's legion.
"Theraton and the Allied Forces of the Holy See are in a stalemate on the Obsidian Plain?" Izaks rubbed his chin and thought about it. "The Allied Forces of the Holy See are very powerful, and Selaton can stand against them. It must have sent most of the main force there... No wonder The Demoncasting Mine has been temporarily put down."
"Just to catch your daughter, two groups of people will mobilize so many people?" Hao Ren suddenly felt that something was wrong. A demon king and a group of coalition forces of various races have been stalemate in the ruins for more than half a year. It is really unreasonable to say that it is just to find a brat.
The expression on Y'zaks' face changed, and he clenched his fist: "No matter what they are doing, they must pass anyway."
"Wait a minute," Vivienne said suddenly, "Is the information on that 'Lava Demon' reliable?"
"Reliable," La Nina smiled. "The lava demons have low intelligence and cannot lie. But they are connected by the magma network that spreads deep in the earth, and they can know what happened in most parts of the land. I am the only demon who has mastered their language, except me. No one outside has access to this intelligence network."
Hao Ren nodded without any doubts, and led a group of people away from the scorching magma river and continued towards the obsidian plain.
Along the way, they really started to encounter low-level demons wandering around, and the closer they got to the Obsidian Plain, the more wandering demons there were, and even Thuraton skirmishers armed with weapons began to appear. When they were on the plane of Selaton before, everyone used the cover of high-altitude thick clouds to land near the Demon Casting Mine, but here, Hao Ren didn't plan to hide too much—they came to collect information, if they hide all the way Coming to the Obsidian Plain, I am afraid that I will face a confused situation.
So everyone began to approach those wandering low-level demons cautiously.
This requires taking a little risk, but everyone has discussed the method of camouflage and fooling around before, and you can't understand the local situation without contacting the enemy, so this risk must be taken. Moreover, low-level demons are easy to deal with. With Hao Ren and his group's abilities, they can basically kill them instantly, so there is no need to worry too much even if they are exposed.
On the desolate and scorched red land, two strong demon guards with unicorns on their heads are leading a small team on their way. They wore the armor of the common soldiers of Selaton's Legion, with the rocky texture of their skin exposed directly to the scorching air, but the two demons themselves enjoyed the weather. They looked back at the Chaos Demons behind them, who were not even soldiers, and the few trembling humans following them, and chatted carelessly: "It's a good weather... and today's luck is also good."
"Yeah yeah."
"On the way to change shifts, these guys were caught by chance. The Holy See coalition forces don't seem to be very capable."
"Yeah yeah."
"I heard that the Allied Forces of the Holy See have been searching for half a year on the Obsidian Plain. If the gang of low-level creatures drag on like this, they will be poisoned to death without waiting for us to march. Do you think that Lord Selaton's idea is just that?" ?”
"Yeah yeah."
"At that time, I will be regarded as a retired veteran from the first rank. Maybe I can be a captain. From now on, I can live a good life of eating people once a week."
"Yeah yeah."
"Tsk, I appreciate your honesty."
"Yeah yeah."
The two demon soldiers who have a good relationship are walking while chatting, which fully proves that even creatures like demons have thoughts and emotions. However, a small group of humans suddenly appeared in their line of sight, which made the two demons stop talking immediately, and raised their weapons one after another: "There are humans again!"
"Look clearly! Idiot!" La Nina walked towards the two demon guards aggressively, "There is a high-level demon!"
The average height of the two demon soldiers is almost twice that of La Niña, but the petite succubus lectured him with a lingering aura in front of this hunk of miscellaneous soldiers, and the two demon soldiers were not annoyed at all. It was a succubus leading a group of humans, and they put down their weapons immediately: "Oh, it's the succubus-sama."
Succubus have low combat effectiveness, but their natural high intelligence and magic skills make them all rank among the middle and upper ranks of demons—natural commanders and staff members, so any succubus is considered a "big shot" for such low-level soldiers .
"Are you going to the Obsidian Plain?" La Nina asked carelessly, as if she was the commander of the two demon soldiers in front of her, her tone was very natural.
"Yes," the two demon soldiers looked a little dazed, "We caught a few spies from the Holy See coalition forces on the way here, and we are about to send them to the officers on the front line."
"Oh, just right, I'm also going to the Obsidian Plain," La Nina pointed to Hao Ren and the others behind her, "I have also added a few new servants recently, but the brainwashing is not thorough enough, and they are not very obedient. Just put a piece, I don't have to keep looking at them."
One of the demon soldiers subconsciously nodded, but the other suddenly looked away, as if thinking of something: "Of course—but can you show us your legion emblem first?"
La Nina took out half a pack of chewing gum from her body (it was taken at Hao Ren's house) and flashed it in front of the demon soldiers. Her eyes glowed with a faint blue light, and her voice was low and soft as if dreaming: "This is my legion emblem..."
La Nina has never seriously exercised her charm ability. Of course, it is difficult to deal with the elite demons near the portal, but it is much easier to deal with this kind of low-level soldiers who do not even seem to be able to use their brains. Instinct alone is enough. The two demon soldiers nodded in a daze: "Oh, good..."
Hao Ren and the others blatantly infiltrated a demon squad that was about to go to the Obsidian Plain to change the guard.
The two demon soldiers continued on their way and started chatting again:
"Do you think ordinary soldiers like us will never have a chance to marry a succubus wife in this life?"
"Yeah yeah."
"Get out, I can't stand your hypocrisy."
"Yeah yeah."
Hao Ren and the others listened from behind: "..." (to be continued~^~)
