It wasn't surprising that there were cities in the Realm of Devils.
After all, there were many intelligent races here, even if the environment was harsh.
But what surprised Roland and the other players was the city's approach.
They actually opened the city gates wide and raised a white flag.
On the hard black rock walls, the huge white flag fluttered in the wind.
At first, the players thought it was a trick. After all, the devils were famous and feared in the main plane.
Almost all the devils were a fighting race, and even the succubi, who were in the service industry, were quite strong.
So when the human soldiers came to the city, the battle hadn't even been fought, and the other side raised a white flag. Who would believe it?
Several guild members were placed about five hundred meters from the city walls.
Because the terrain was relatively flat, the people on the city walls could see these "legions" stationed not far away.
"It's probably a trap." In the conference room of the vanguard legion, Solisa of the Phoenix Guild spread her hands and said, "Most of the devils we've come into contact with recently will fight to the death, except for the succubi."
Speaking of the succubi, Solisa's expression obviously turned a little bad.
She discovered that there seemed to be more succubi in the human world now.
Although there were indeed no succubi on the front line, the male players were clearly excited.
It was easy to guess what they were looking forward to.
"Should we send someone in to scout?" Moogle of Fatter Cat looked at Roland. "After all, we have professional scouts too."
Indeed, Roland's three little spiders were now well-known.
Many Mage players begged Roland to post the spell model on the forum, but Roland was no longer willing.
This kind of modified spell with special functions was better kept for himself.
"There's no problem with scouting …"
Roland was talking when a player who was in charge of relaying orders came in from outside and said hurriedly, "The enemy sent an emissary, a human."
Huh?
Everyone was a little surprised, then nodded and agreed to let the emissary in.
After all, the other party came alone, and it wouldn't be good to not see him.
After tidying up the conference hall a little, a dozen players sat on the rock chairs that had just been made.
Then someone led the emissary in.
This emissary was a male with a black beard, his face almost indistinguishable, and his figure was thin and his expression full of fatigue.
But when he saw the players, his eyes suddenly became joyful.
Even his expression turned into one of ecstasy.
"You're an emissary from the city ahead?" Moogle asked. "What's your purpose?"
The man didn't say anything. Instead, he knelt on one knee.
His expression was very sincere, and his eyes were glistening with tears. "Did the humans really counterattack the Devil World?"
"Indeed." Moogle pointed at the dozen or so players around him. "You should have seen the army outside. Don't tell me you still don't believe me?"
It was not strange that there were humans in the Demon Realm. After all, in the previous Demon Realm invasions, there were always many humans who were taken away.
Especially women.
The man wanted to speak, but as soon as he opened his mouth, it turned into a painful cry.
The players looked at each other.
After waiting for a while, the man held back his emotions and wiped his tears with his patched sleeve.
Then he said, "Sorry?
I've embarrassed myself in front of all of you. Since you're here, can you take us back to the main plane?
We are even willing to be your servants. "
All the players' expressions froze … None of them are stupid?
She keenly noticed that there was a word in the man's words.
"Us!"
"Could it be that most of the people in the city ahead are humans?"
The man nodded vigorously. "Yes?
There are a total of 83,000 people, all of them humans. "
"Aren't you awesome?
You can actually build a city in the Demon Realm. "Everyone was quite impressed.
This was a very impressive thing.
But they didn't expect it.
The players' praise instead made the man even more depressed.
He said absentmindedly, "We're not awesome, and we didn't build that city. It's just a cage."
"What do you mean?"
The emissary's eyes reddened and he almost cried again.
But very quickly, he suppressed his sadness.
Speaking of this city.
It turned out that every time the devils invaded?
There would be a large number of people captured to the devils.
Then these humans would be concentrated in captivity.
If the vampires kept humans in captivity just for blood, then the devils kept humans in captivity purely for meat.
There wasn't much death energy in the Demon Realm. There would be a small rainy season every year.
After the rainy season, there would be a kind of black moss that could be eaten raw.
It could also be dried and eaten, but only humans could eat it.
As for the other devils?
It was a highly toxic thing that emitted a disgusting smell.
It was like how humans could eat chocolate but dogs couldn't.
The annual production of this moss was very large.
So the devils came up with a way … to raise humans as pigs?
When there was no food?
Then they would slaughter and eat them.
There were almost a constant population of more than 80,000 people in this city, and no human could live past the age of twenty.
And sometimes the devils would eat children and babies in pursuit of fresher delicacies, which was quite cruel.
"F * ck!"
Hearing this, the dozen or so commanders all bristled with anger.
All of them were murderous.
At this moment, Fatter Cat suddenly thought of a question. "Will the succubi also eat you?"
"No." The emissary shook his head. "The succubi are the only devils who won't eat us. They are only interested in our essence. Before, the happiest thing for us was to be bought by the succubi. Even if we were molested by them every day, we could at least live to thirty or forty years old. "
Many men breathed a sigh of relief.
Solisa snorted unhappily.
"So, are there any devils in the city now?" asked Roland.
The emissary shook his head. "There used to be some bone devils and mind flayers, but they all ran away a few days ago, and then we learned that our relatives from the main plane had counterattacked."
"Are there many human cities like yours?"
"Yes!" The emissary nodded vigorously. "About every three hundred kilometers, there will be a human breeding city."
Solisa stood up. "There's no time to lose. Immediately organize a rescue escort team and transfer all the humans in the cities ahead back to the human world."
"We definitely have to save people, but there's a problem." Roland patted the table lightly and said, "Wetland City can accept more than 80,000 people, but how many breeding cities are there in the entire Realm of Devils? With so many people … Wetland City can't accommodate them, and other cities may not be willing to accept them."
Everyone was a little frustrated.
It had to be said that this was a very real problem.
In the end, it was Rolisa who asked, "So are we just going to leave the other breeding cities alone?"
Roland thought for a moment and said, "No matter what, let's save as many people as we can. First escort all the people in this city to the teleportation array, then pull them back to the main plane and put them in Wetland City. As for the rest … I'll go to Fareins and contact the royal family there to see if they have any population needs. "
As the largest human country in the world, Fareins had a lot of land, and it shouldn't be a problem to put one or two hundred million more people.
Besides, there probably weren't that many humans in the entire Realm of Devils.
Everyone nodded. "Then let's do that first."
Roland stood up. "You decide how to rescue them. I'll go to Fareins now and talk to someone about this."
Everyone agreed.
Solisa even stood up, her beautiful face full of expectation. "Roland, it's up to you."
"I'll try my best."
Roland felt that the burden was heavy.
After Roland left, the people in the meeting asked the emissary some more questions, and in the end, they immediately began to act. Several groups of guild members immediately set off for the city.
The emissary was at the forefront. He waved his hand at the city wall and made a strange gesture, and then the city gate opened.
Then a strange stench rushed out with the opening of the city gate.
It could be clearly seen that the air inside was very dirty, even slightly yellow.
The stench was very strong.
The players who knew Mages subconsciously started Detoxification or Magic Shields to isolate the smell.
The players were somewhat clean.
But when they entered the city, they suddenly felt that what they had just done was too damn arrogant.
There wasn't a single building in the city that was truly intact. They were all small cages made of broken stones.
There were no sewers or streets. People urinated and defecated in the streets, and the thick, dry excrement turned the red earth into black earth.
Most of the humans were asleep on the dry excrement.
They had no clothes, not to mention furniture.
Their bodies were covered in black stains, and their hair was stuck together and then shiny and slippery.
A skinny little girl, probably no more than fifteen years old, held and fed even skinnier babies.
These babies were also quite thin and weak.
In the city, every ten meters or so, there would be a wooden stain about two meters high with a stone trough hanging from it.
When Solisa saw that someone was hungry, she would go up and pat the stone trough, and black powder would float down.
The people waiting below would open their mouths and casually swallow a few times before going back to sleep.
Most of the people looked muddle-headed and seemed to have no intelligence to speak of, acting only on instinct.
They had almost degenerated into beasts.
The players of the few guilds, seeing this, were already too shocked to speak.
"My lords, my lords, please save them." The messenger knelt before them again. "Don't be fooled by their appearance, but as long as they have a normal life, they will become human again. Please take them away, please, I beg you."
Looking at the messenger who banged his head heavily on the ground, Solisa's lips trembled as she said intermittently, "This … is … is … a disgrace … to mankind."
She wasn't scared, but angry, and because she was so angry, she temporarily lost control of her language ability.
"We're not pigs, so please let us return to the human world."
The messenger burst into tears.
A guild chairman pulled the messenger up. He said lightly, "Don't worry, they will be saved immediately. As for more humans, we will save them too."
After the shock, the few guild groups began to make preparations.
First, they fished the people out of this dirty environment.
More than eighty thousand people seemed like a lot, but it was actually just that.
Except for a few humans who still had intelligence, the rest had become animals who only instinctively followed orders.
And the more so, the more smoothly the rescue plan went.
The Priests set up Detoxification and Cleansing checkpoints at the gate, and the Warriors and other professions commanded and controlled the actions of these unintelligent humans in the city.
They taught them to walk out and to line up.
The Summoner girls patrolled nearby to prevent devils from coming over to kill and make trouble.
More and more players rushed over from the Teleportation Gate.
Because of the livestream, the entire player community had now learned about this matter.
Discussions about this began on the forum.
It wasn't a discussion about whether or not the people should be saved, but about how to be responsible for teaching them how to live after they were rescued.
"Epidemic prevention is important. The environment in the breeding city is too dirty. We must make sure that everyone enjoys Detoxification and Cleansing at least once."
"Now that all the Priests of the guilds are rushing to Sisilia, there shouldn't be a problem in terms of numbers."
"The most important thing is the issue of intellectual recovery. We can't save tens of thousands of fools and then have to feed them for the rest of their lives. "
"It's not too difficult. Wolf children can communicate normally in two or three years when they return to the human world."
"I heard that Mages have Enlighten, a level-six spell!"
"In that case, we'll have to find a master Mage, Roland."
"He's very busy right now. He has to find a place for those people to live. Let's not bother him for now."
"No matter what, if they dare to raise humans like pigs and eat them like pigs, none of the devils will live … I'll make a grand promise now to kill all the devils in the world. Right, except for the succubi. "
"Ditto, I'm also going to switch from a lifestyle to a combat profession."
"So that's what the Realm of Devils Expedition is referring to. Got it."
And at this time, Roland had already found the First Princess Stephanie in the city of Fareins.
She was having afternoon tea with several noble ladies.
Roland was brought directly to her by the butler.
"Please sit down." Stephanie smiled happily. "What can make a busy person like you come to my place?"
The few noble ladies next to her looked at Roland with great interest.
After all, it seemed that this was the man who had a rather ambiguous relationship with the First Princess in the rumors.
Roland shrugged. "We see each other often, okay … I'd like to ask, if I had hundreds of thousands, or even millions of people, and wanted to put them in Fareins, would you take them?"
The noble ladies froze.
Stephanie looked like she had seen a ghost. "Are you planning to be a slave trader now? No! Even a slave trader can't get that many people. Where did you start a war to destroy a country? "
In Stephanie's opinion, to get a large number of people in the millions in a short time, the only thing that was slightly possible was war.
"We Golden Sons are counterattacking the Realm of Devils."
Pfft!
Stephanie spat out a mouthful of fruit tea, but it bounced back when it hit Roland's Magic Shield.
It left a lot of water droplets on Stephanie and the noble ladies on the opposite side.
"What did you say, counterattacking the Realm of Devils?"
Because Hollevin was a bit far from Fareins, the news spread a bit slowly.
Besides, even the mayor of Sisilia in Hollevin didn't know what the Golden Sons were up to by gathering together.
He was having a headache and was trembling in fear.
"Yes! Just like you heard. "
Stephanie immediately understood where this large number of people came from. "That's no problem! But you have to come with me to the palace and talk to Father. "
