In front of him were demons, Gnolls, and Undead.
The Succubus Queen – Mecanut and the Gnoll King – Yeenoghu had been fighting for thousands of years, and the accumulated hatred had long been too strong to be resolved. Facing the active attack of the Succubus army, the army of the Gnoll King – Yeenoghu did not hesitate to counterattack. The surprise attack in front of him was obviously to directly flatten this steel fortress. Judging from the number of enemies in front of him, the Gnoll King – Yeenoghu mobilized nearly 100,000 demons, which had a strength gap of nearly five times!
Each layer of the Abyss was not small; it was equivalent to an independent plane.
As the rulers of the bottomless Abyss, many Demon Lords had territories larger than a continent, so they had huge populations and armies under their command. A true battle between Demon Lords might be comparable to a small-scale planar war!
The figures of the Gnolls from the Abyss appeared in the darkness.
These vigorous enemies had good stealth ability. By the time they were discovered, many of them had already climbed up the wall of the steel fortress. By the time Sauron arrived, the battle had already begun, and there were many demons running around in the camp.
"Roar!"
But something happened that made Sauron even more speechless. His adjutant, the Hezrou, after killing an Abyss Gnoll, jumped down from the wall and rampaged all the way into the enemy's army. It laughed excitedly as it killed. Then it was surrounded by several ghouls and gnolls at the same time, and its injuries became more serious.
Then, it died just like that!
That's right!
It died.
What the hell!
That's right, Sauron's adjutant died at the beginning of the battle.
What's there to play?!
What made him feel even more desperate was that this kind of thing was not only happening around him. There were many middle-grade and high-grade demons in the steel fortress who rushed to the bottom of the wall to fight with the enemy.
Sauron was speechless!
Fortunately, the enemy's demon army was almost the same. One of the Berserk Demons seemed to be having a great time killing the demons, but it still wasn't satisfied even after reaching the city wall. It didn't have any intention of occupying the city wall and directly jumped into the steel fortress. Then it was a little dumbfounded because it was also surrounded by many demons.
"Body of Flame!"
Sauron's dark red skin began to appear on his dark red skin, and the raging flames wrapped him in it. Then he was like a torch, causing the nearby demons to avoid him. The Balrou used a special weapon. Sauron did not have a long sword that could burn flames, so he could only temporarily use a + 1 long sword against the enemy in front of him.
The fire illuminated the surroundings!
Zoro suddenly became very eye-catching, and then a lot of attacks came.
However.
Perhaps he was born with a strong ability to adapt, or perhaps he had already expected such a result, Zoro quickly jumped off the wall and rushed to the enemies who had run into the camp.
Running away after showing off, so exciting!
Sauron seemed to be a little used to it. The demon army outside saw a human-shaped flame suddenly appear on the wall. It was so eye-catching in the dark night and looked very cool! Many demons could not help but scream and prepare to kill this guy first, but they did not expect him to turn around and shrink back.
Want to run away after showing off?
Not so easy!
Many demons rushed toward Sauron's wall. Some even climbed up the wall and looked around for the guy who wanted to run away after showing off. After finding the target, they jumped down excitedly.
Sauron never thought that his taunting ability was so powerful!
Just showing up on the wall attracted seven or eight middle-grade demons to chase him. He did not know if these enemies did not like his cool appearance, or if they thought that killing him would bring unexpected gains.
Sauron was originally in the Lawful Evil camp.
In the bottomless Abyss, it was easy to attract the hostility of demons. Now that he had a flame-like appearance, it seemed that he could attract a group of monsters.
A row of data appeared in front of him:
"Killed middle-grade Hezrou! … "
"Extracting target's demon bloodline! … "
"You've gained 21 points of demon power! Current body cannot absorb soul energy! Soul energy conversion! Feedback 900 Slaughter EXP to the body! … "
"Ability upgrade! Creature level increased to level 10! You've advanced to grade 3! … "
"Demon bloodline activated! … "
"A mutation has occurred in his own body! [Dretch] form ability upgraded! … "
"You've automatically learned the spell-like ability [Command Demon] (Casting Level 10) under the elite template! The effect of your spell-like ability [Summon Demon] has increased! … "
…
After killing another Hezrou, Sauron's creature level increased again and directly entered the ranks of grade 3 demons.
The demon bloodline accumulated by Sauron was still not enough for him to undergo a mutation. It could only improve the power of the Dretch form again. However, because he had an elite template, Sauron's growth obviously exceeded the limits of ordinary Dretch. His spell-like ability was still constantly improving under the accumulation of demon bloodline.
"Command Demon [Spell-Like Ability]: As an elite demon, you can cast the command spell on other demons once. The casting level is equivalent to your creature level. If the command is successful, the demon will completely obey your orders, but if the spell fails, the target may launch a crazy attack on you. This spell-like ability can be used once a day! "
"Summon Demon [Spell-Like Ability]: As an elite demon, you have the talent ability to summon more subordinates. You can summon 2-6 Dretch subordinates. This spell-like ability increases with your own strength. This spell-like ability can be used once a day. "
Command Demon.
Summon Demon.
If Sauron remembered correctly, before he was upgraded, his ability to summon demons was like this – "Dretch can summon another Dretch, but the success rate is only about 35%. This ability is like a level 1 spell and can only be used once a day. "
One was a 35% chance to summon another Dretch.
The other was to summon 2-6 Dretch subordinates directly.
These were not spells at all. Under the elite form, Sauron's various abilities were quite obvious!
"Summon Demon!"
Facing such a powerful taunt ability, Sauron did not hesitate to summon a group of cannon fodder. The spell-like ability was directly imprinted in the demon's memory, just like a sorcerer's ability that they were born with. With the emergence of magic, three Dretch figures appeared around Sauron's body. Because of the flame body, these Dretch all hid far away, but Sauron still easily relied on his will to command them.
Next were the other demons.
In this situation, there was no doubt that the more cannon fodder around him, the better. It was obvious that many of the enemy demons did not like his behavior of "running away after showing off". If he ran to the city wall and activated his flame body in the next battle, he might attract a group of enemies. Therefore, Sauron now planned to use the Command Demon to control a relatively powerful cannon fodder, at least it could help him block the enemy.
However, this was also risky!
After all, his own Creature Level was only 10. If the Command failed, he might be attacked by the target.
What kind of demon was more suitable?
Sauron looked for allies around him. It could not be too powerful because the success rate of Command was very low, and the risk of failure was too high. It could not be too weak either. Otherwise, it would waste a precious spell-like ability, and it would not be of much use.
Soon!
Sauron found a good target.
It was a Violent Abyss Demon with a Challenge Rating of 5 and a Creature Level of about 10. It was a large demon with a relatively low IQ, but its skin was thick and tough. It could become a kind of cannon fodder for Hezrou.
If it was it, Sauron's success rate might be 50%!
