The battle was over.
Because he accidentally summoned another Balrog, Sauron easily took over all the territories outside the Gulumba Arena. Now, the only thing stopping him from controlling the Gulumba Arena was the Demonic Goblins hiding inside the arena. The huge circular arena was like a fortress. Even with Sauron's ability, it was difficult to conquer it. He needed a large number of cannon fodder to break through the defense line of the Demonic Goblins. Otherwise, he might be surrounded and killed by the enemy.
After all, the Demonic Incarnation was not the main body.
With the strength of the main body, he could naturally leave and stay as he wished. However, this Demonic Incarnation did not have any professional abilities. It was completely dependent on the innate power of the Balrog. If it was surrounded, it would be a dead end!
However.
Sauron also had his own way, which was to make a deal with the neutral Evil Demons.
For Sauron, the wealth of the Abyss was nothing. He did not care about the territories outside the Gulumba Arena. Therefore, after he defeated the other Greater Demons, he immediately gathered all the neutral Evil Demons. He was ready to make a deal with these Evil Demons. The content of the deal was the territories outside the Gulumba Arena.
The next day, in the Lava Tavern.
The first to come to the Lava Tavern was a Greater Onibaba. She controlled the weapons trade outside the Gulumba Arena.
Then came the Night Witches, Nagros Demons, Lesser Rossi Demons, and so on. Almost all the neutral Evil Demons outside the arena were gathered here by Sauron.
The tavern was very quiet.
The flirtatious Lady Boss stood behind Sauron, her fingers gently pressing on his shoulder. It had to be said that these Succubus really knew how to please males. This skill was not only limited to the pleasure in bed, but also included other aspects. The Succubus naturally knew how to satisfy the male's desire to conquer.
"Everyone."
Sauron stood up and looked around. Finally, his eyes fell on the Onibaba in front of him. This Onibaba was not simple. It was said that she came from the Asura Realm and later changed her business to the Abyss. In addition, the secondary Ross Devils were also very powerful. The Ross Devils had a huge trading network. Even the smuggling trade in the Abyss Blood War was done by them.
After pausing for a moment, he said in a deep voice, "I intend to make a deal with you. This is the content of the contract. If you are interested, you might as well take a look."
In the Bottomless Abyss, only the Nether River Contract was binding.
Demons were not as trustworthy as demons. Things like going back on their word often happened. The demons of the neutral evil camp had long learned their lesson. They would never believe a contract that did not have anything to do with the River Styx.
A contract was passed into the hands of the other evil spirits.
The first to receive it was the high-grade Onibaba. She glanced at it, and a hint of surprise appeared on her ugly face. She slowly said, "Sir Sauron!"
"So you're saying that if we help you take down the Gulumba Arena, you'll give us the territories outside?"
Sauron silently observed the expressions of the other demons.
After everyone looked around, he slowly nodded and said, "That's right! If you help me take down the Gulumba Arena, all the territories outside will belong to you. Not only these territories, but I'll also give you half of the profits from the casino after the arena reopens. "
The demons were very powerful.
The demons present were all engaged in planar transactions. If they did not travel to other levels of the Bottomless Abyss, they would directly go to the [Bottomless Abyss], the [Baator Inferno], and the [Asura Field] to trade. These demons had guards and mercenaries. Because of their neutral nature, they liked to do business, but they did not like to be involved in the disputes of demons.
Sauron wanted to use the demons' guards and mercenaries to kill the demons and goblins in one fell swoop. In return, he would give all the territories except for the Lava Tavern street to these demons as a reward. Any order required wealth and power to maintain. Sauron did not lack either. As long as these demons were willing to fight, they would be able to receive generous rewards.
The Bottomless Abyss was not a material plane.
Sauron's main body had been operating in the material plane for a long time and could easily mobilize a large number of people. However, his demon incarnation could not do this. If he wanted to take down the Gulumba Arena, he would need the help of these demons. Moreover, a successful trade could gain the demons' trust. The reason why demons rarely appeared in the Bottomless Abyss was that many demons were willing to deal with demons rather than demons.
It could be said that the trade of all the planes in the Bottomless Abyss could not compare to the first level of the Baator Inferno.
Chaos was a disaster by nature.
Soon.
The demons in front of Sauron made a decision because Sauron gave them an irresistible temptation.
"I need more people."
After the high-grade Onibaba signed the contract, she turned around and looked at the other demons. Her gaze stopped on the secondary Ross demons for a while. She seemed to be provoking them. "My sister is doing business in Blood Town in the first level of the Bottomless Abyss. If we want to take down the Gulumba Arena, we need to hire some mercenaries from there."
The secondary Ross demons bowed slightly to Sauron and said slowly, "Your Excellency Sauron!"
"According to the contract, I will gather at least 500 subordinates. My family is the lord of the Asura Field. It seems that I need to go back."
This was a war.
It was impossible to take down the Gulumba Arena with just the thousands of demons that Sauron had subdued, because it was occupied by all the demons and goblins.
Although they were now without a leader, the goblins had an absolute advantage in terms of numbers.
There were originally tens of thousands of demons and goblins in the Gulumba Arena. After the initial chaos, the demons that had been suppressed for a long time went berserk. The number of goblins decreased by a few thousand, but now there were still an army of five to six thousand. It was impossible for Sauron to take down the arena with just his cannon fodder. The only way to take down the arena quickly was to rely on the guards and mercenaries of the demons.
After eliminating these demons and goblins, Sauron could be considered to have taken over the arena.
However.
If he wanted to become the demon lord that completely controlled the Gulumba Arena, there was still a problem in front of Sauron, and that was the Abyssal Demon Dragon that occupied the nearby lava volcano. It was the ally of the former demon lord, Miamide – Calamity Coin. The thoughts of the Abyssal Demon Dragon were hard to guess. Sauron might be able to form an alliance with it, but he might also need to personally kill it.
Everything depended on the attitude of the Abyssal Demon Dragon!
