The Three Heavenly Kings went to search the Calamity Demon King's corpse for spoils of war.
Helbart and the others had tears in their eyes. They had witnessed the fall of one of the Seven Demon Kings, the Calamity Demon King. They felt like they had witnessed history.
Bai Xiaowen didn't feel that much. He directly grabbed the middle-aged human messenger.
"How should I address you?" Bai Xiaowen smiled warmly.
The middle-aged messenger's expression was uncertain. Although he was a high-level evolver and Bai Xiaowen was only a mid-level, the scene of Bai Xiaowen commanding an army to beat up the Calamity Demon King was still imprinted in his eyes. He didn't dare to underestimate Bai Xiaowen at all.
"I … I'm You Heming."
"Someone from the Heavenly Province Territory?"
"I'm not!" You Heming said anxiously. "I'm just an evolver who accidentally entered this place. I have no intention of going against you."
Bai Xiaowen narrowed his eyes and said, "Do I look like someone who's easy to fool?"
You Heming was speechless.
"If you're not from the Heavenly Province Territory, how did you get to the Calamity Demon King's side and become his high-level advisor?" Bai Xiaowen shook his head slightly. "With your strength, the Calamity Demon King won't even look at you, not to mention that demons and humans are enemies. There's no other explanation other than the fact that there's a powerful territory behind you. "
You Heming lowered his head. "… Yes, I'm the messenger of the Heavenly Province Territory."
"What are you doing here?"
"I'm in charge of communication between the territory and the Calamity Demon King."
"What cooperation does the Heavenly Province Territory have with the Calamity Demon King?"
"I can't say that."
"You can't say it?"
You Heming raised his head and said, "If I say it, I'll die."
Bai Xiaowen narrowed his eyes and said, "As far as I know, there's no such thing as the 'notarization of the spirit world' in the world of evolvers. Based on this common sense, you said that leaking the secret will lead to death … So you signed some kind of contract led by someone else? "
You Heming nodded.
"What a pity. I wanted to ask about the secret of the Heavenly Province Territory controlling the demon army. As long as you're willing to tell me, I can let you go."
Bai Xiaowen shook his head slightly. "Now, it's difficult."
You Heming's body trembled and he hurriedly said, "I can't reveal the secrets of my fief, but I can buy my life with money. Milord, I still have some savings on me. Please feel free to take them. "
Bai Xiaowen shook his head. "I'm not interested in the bits and pieces you have on you. The only thing I'm interested in is Mengchuan's secret of controlling the devil army. "
Bai Xiaowen enunciated the last sentence word by word, and even intentionally repeated it.
You Heming lowered his head and said, "I'm sorry. I'll die if I tell you that secret …"
All of a sudden, a yellow spell talisman slashed toward his face. You Heming's pupils contracted. He wanted to struggle, but his arms were firmly clasped by two thick demon arms.
Demon General Golding restrained You Heming. The power of the Bewitching Curse quickly invaded You Heming's sea of consciousness.
Bai Xiaowen was now a Level-16 Evolver, and his strength had improved greatly. You Heming was just a high-level Elite. The defenses in his meridians collapsed at the first touch, and Bai Xiaowen's consciousness penetrated his sea of consciousness almost without any obstruction.
In just a short five seconds of battle, You Heming had become Bai Xiaowen's slave.
Bai Xiaowen immediately began to flip through You Heming's memories.
"I hope I can find something."
Bai Xiaowen asked You Heming about the secret of controlling the devil army in the end because he wanted You Heming to involuntarily recall it and strengthen his memory in this area. This way, when Bai Xiaowen searched through You Heming's memory fragments after controlling him, the chances of this secret being preserved as part of the fragment would increase by a lot.
This was also the answer Bai Xiaowen had come to after many times.
It was said that before a person died, the most important memories of their life would quickly flash through their mind.
And things like memory fragments were actually the most deeply engraved scenes before death.
Scene after scene flashed through Bai Xiaowen's eyes.
Finally, Bai Xiaowen opened his eyes and stood up.
You Heming's eyes had already lost their luster. He fell to the ground with a plop, completely dead.
"So that's how it is … A soul contract? I understand. "
Bai Xiaowen strode toward the Calamity Demon King's throne.
Now, the throne had been buried in ruins.
Bai Xiaowen's mind moved, and a tall Skeleton Warrior appeared. It moved away the ruins of the throne and cleared it out.
Bai Xiaowen walked forward and sat on the throne. His right hand touched the armrest of the throne.
The armrest of the throne was uneven, and there were sinister devil carvings on it.
Bai Xiaowen recalled the Calamity Demon King's height and arm span. After a little calculation, he chose one of the devil carvings.
After carefully studying it, he suddenly inserted his hand into the devil carvings' eyes and pressed hard.
Immediately, the devil carvings' eyes sunk, but the whole carvings floated up and protruded.
Bai Xiaowen twisted, and there was a rumbling sound in front of him.
The ground in front of the throne split in the middle, and a two-meter square stone platform rose up.
On the stone platform, there was a gray stone slab floating.
On the stone slab, there were lines of words written in the devil's language.
"Lord Haristos, what is this?"
The militia of Wutu Town was relatively free now. Helbart had been paying attention to Bai Xiaowen's actions. When he saw this scene, he curiously came over.
"This is a contract."
Bai Xiaowen said, "It's written in the devil's language. It records the true names of some devils. From the content, as long as the devil's name is on it, they should be loyal to the Calamity Demon King. I just don't know how the effect of this contract is maintained."
If this was a magical contract, with Bai Xiaowen's current spiritual energy sensitivity, he should be able to sense the magical power (spiritual energy) contained in this contract.
However, Bai Xiaowen could not sense it at all.
The contract on the stone slab seemed to be the most ordinary of words. It did not contain any magical power, and he could not see its mysteries at all.
However, Bai Xiaowen had reason to believe that the Calamity Demon King must have used the power of the contract to restrain the devil army under his command, making so many rebellious Devil Lords obey him.
Moreover, from You Heming's memories, Mengchuan's ability to restrain the devil army was also related to this contract.
Could it be related to the contents of the contract?
Deciphering this contract was the same as deciphering the secret behind Mengchuan's ability to control the devil army.
Of course, it did not matter even if he could not decipher it. Mengchuan should have cooperated with the Calamity Demon Wang Jin. Now that the Calamity Demon King was done for, Mengchuan had lost his partner, and the devil army would definitely not be able to continue expanding.
From this point of view, Bai Xiaowen had already completed the goal entrusted to him by the Hornet Queen and Candice.
However, Bai Xiaowen still wanted more. He wanted to expand his territory even faster. The secret of controlling the devil army was obviously a very good starting point.
