As soon as Sha Bin received the arm, he shed his human appearance and returned to his demon form.
He was about three meters tall. If it weren't for his hunched body, he would have almost reached the ceiling. The strange face looked like a dragon lizard, but it was different from the usual lizardmen's dome. Its ears were raised high, like sharp mountains. His skin was like dry red soil, full of cracks of varying depths. He wore a set of armor that seemed to be melted and flickering with red light.
However, the remaining arm of the demon in front of him was different from the arm brought by a certain someone. Sha Bin's hand only had three fingers and no claws, but it was very thick and long. The arm that was thicker than a certain someone's thigh was easily held in Sha Bin's original hand.
He cautiously brought the different arm close to his severed limb. The broken section that had already closed split open again, like a strange insect opening its bloody mouth. On the part of the broken arm that was torn apart, tendrils of flesh seemed to come to life, twisting and extending towards Sha Bin's severed limb.
As the broken arm and Sha Bin's severed limb stuck together, the tendrils formed a bundle, and then a bundle formed a flesh. In the end, the broken arm was completely connected to Sha Bin's severed limb, and the skin color and skin characteristics on both sides fused into one.
He tried to move the six fingers of the newly attached arm. From the original awkwardness, he quickly made all kinds of movements skillfully. Sha Bin looked at the novice in satisfaction and said, "This arm is indeed the remains of that Grand Lord. Human, you really brought a good thing. "
"Oh, it's good that you're satisfied. Then it's time to fulfill your promise, Lord Sha Bin. "
The demon, who was very satisfied with his new hand, transformed into a human noble. This time, the originally empty sleeve had a new arm. He said in a gentlemanly and irrefutable tone, "Lady Mao Ni, although I'm very sorry for you, I hope you can find your freedom outside my territory. Please leave. "
"Is this really okay?" The pretentious black-faced, white-haired Siamese cat had no intention of leaving. Instead, it licked its paws and combed its fur while saying, "If I say that I know how to control the enchantment of the Abyssal Gate, would you still continue your deal with that human? My Lord. '
Sure enough, this cat was going to make an issue out of this. Lin thought to himself.
As expected, he was too young to make such a mistake. This female cat didn't even think about it. She had previously concealed this ability of hers, but now she revealed it in hopes that the demon in front of her would go back on his word and continue to keep her. But even if it stayed, would it still receive the same treatment as before?
The barrier around the Gate of the Abyss was undoubtedly on the other side of the gate. It was a huge obstacle for the demons to invade the maze. But when Mao Ni admitted this, the expressions of the two demon lords were far less ecstatic than when they saw the arm. They only looked at a certain person meaningfully, their eyes seeming to be smiling but not smiling. Sha Bin said, "Human, you're not being honest."
"When the contract is established, both parties are willing. You didn't know that the female cat had that method, and I didn't know that the arm came from an Abyss Lord. No wonder when you connected it, your power level increased by 37.3%. I don't think that either side is really losing out in such a deal. Could it be that because your eyesight isn't good enough, you feel that you've lost out and intend to go back on this deal? This will ruin the good reputation of demons for abiding by contracts. "
"Interesting, but you've neglected two points. We didn't sign a formal contract, only a verbal agreement. "Sha Bin changed his original humble attitude and became somewhat aggressive. At the same time, the door opened, and a group of elite demon warriors of various shapes and sizes entered the room, almost filling up the doorway.
Seeing his subordinates enter in a line and block the human mage's retreat, Sha Bin said proudly, "The second point, which is also the most important point, is that the key to ensuring the fulfillment of a contract is always strength. So-called agreements or promises were just alms given by the strong. You can't be so naive as to think that demons are a group of pitiful creatures who stick to their promises and don't know how to be flexible, right? "
The two Demon Lords in front of him stood up. Although they hadn't assumed a combat stance yet, the threat they exuded was self-evident. Lin, however, was still sitting calmly. He tilted his head and looked at the demons' formation, asking, "Are you going to break your promise? Or do you think you can hurt me? "
After the two Demon Lords exchanged a glance, the helpless Sha Bin turned his head and said, "With that strange teleportation ability of yours, I can't stop you if you want to escape. But you've never been the main point, have you? As long as I can drive you away, my goal will be achieved. "
Pointing at the cats beside him, Lin asked, "Oh, you think I can't use the same ability to take them away?"
"If you could, you wouldn't be standing here talking to me right now, would you? If it's possible, you should've brought that gray cat with you from the very beginning. You shouldn't have walked into this place by yourself, right? So I believe that there must be a limit to that ability, and that limit is why you can't leave with those two cats alive. "
After listening to Sha Bin's analysis, Lin had to admit that the other party wasn't a demon who only grew muscles and not brains. He had indeed hit the nail on the head. But it wasn't as if the other party didn't misjudge. Lin said, "You're basically right, but I have to correct one thing. The request I received from the Devil Moth King on the other side of the door was to save that female cat. If I can't save her, then I'm to bring back proof of her death. In other words, bringing back a dead cat is something they can accept. "
Mao Ni the Siamese cat was so frightened that she retreated to the edge of the chair. Hardy the gray cat also stood between the human mage and Mao Ni, arching its back and shouting in a threatening voice, "Do you think I'll let you do that, human?"
He completely ignored the weak threat in his eyes. Lin didn't even look at the two cats and said to the demon, "If you can't bring back a dead cat, then bring back two dead cats. It shouldn't be a problem. After all, nothing can happen in the Abyss. As far as I know, none of the rescue teams they sent into the Abyss, including the targets they rescued, returned. I don't see them being surprised by this either. Instead, they look like it's a matter of course. So it doesn't matter whether this cat lives or dies. As long as you don't know the knowledge in its head, my goal can be considered achieved. Isn't it? "
"Oh, how heartless." Sha Bin made an exaggerated expression and shook his head regretfully. "Aren't you afraid that I'll inform your employer of what happened here? Guess how that giant moth and those cats will treat you. "
"Before I worry about that kind of thing, can I ask them first? Will they believe what you say?"
Facing a certain someone's question, Sha Bin said awkwardly, "Maybe, they will believe a little."
Lin said indifferently, "Actually, even if they really believe it, it doesn't matter. If they can bring back some cat skin as a gift, they should be happy. This is the Abyss, not my kitchen where they can come and go as they please. What's more, I only plan to make a deal with them once. I don't plan to cooperate for a long time. I still have to establish mutual trust and a good relationship. "
"Are all mages like you, so indifferent to life and only caring about whether their goals are achieved? Don't you have any respect? "
"Such sarcasm, coming from the mouth of a demon, is the biggest sarcasm in itself. Besides, you don't have any good intentions. You've already invited a Nightmare Lord. You can't say that this demon who is good at making people tell the truth from dreams is just a good friend of yours. I passed by here and accepted your hospitality. If I was a step slower, I doubt I would have seen a living cat. "
The Nightmare Lord, who had always been like a vase, was now walking with swaying steps, secretly approaching a sitting mage. On the surface, she was showing her charm to the fullest. Twisting her waist and swaying her hips, this move was always successful against humans. However, her cold red lips said softly, "All of this has nothing to do with you, right?"
With a stomp of its foot, the Nightmare Lord closed in on the human mage and grabbed his right arm. However, a certain someone didn't avoid it and put his arm in the other party's hand. What they were betting on was that demons only liked to use their innate ability to bully people. And the innate ability of a Nightmare was to control the souls of others through dreams.
However, a certain someone's dream had already killed countless Nightmare creatures.
Just as the demons thought that they had succeeded and the situation was set, the two cats also realized that they were in a terrible situation. The Nightmare Lord, who had grabbed the human mage, screamed, "It's you!" After saying that, she broke one of her arms and fled through the window in horror.
Most people felt like they were in a dream about this sudden turn of events. Only Lin looked at the lonely jade hand that had grabbed him and said regretfully, "It's a pity that she escaped again. Eh, why did I say 'again'? "
However, the Nightmare Lord's sudden retreat didn't stop what was going to happen next. Although the demon that had left had reached the level of an Overlord, all the demons understood that the other party relied on her innate ability that was impossible to guard against. As long as the innate ability was restrained, it was useless. In the end, a battle still had to come down to the exchange of fists, the fusion of iron and blood.
All the demons attacked together!
In fact, this was what a certain someone had secretly hoped for!
Everyone had a hidden desire for violence in their hearts. However, for a transmigrator from a world ruled by law, it was just a matter of whether they had the conditions to carry it out and whether they could bear the consequences after doing it. It was just that in a lawless world like the Lost Land, it was easy for most people to carry out violence, but difficult to restrain.
What had been restraining Lin was not entirely the influence of the environment she grew up in, but more of the reverence for power, just like the reverence for public power in a world ruled by law. If one day she didn't have eyes and kicked an iron plate, she would have to pay with her life. Many people's works always liked to depict the protagonist pretending to be a pig to eat a tiger. They never thought that one day when the situation was reversed, what kind of tragic situation would it be.
But now that she was fully armed, what kind of level had she reached? Lin had wanted to give it a try a long time ago. It was just that in the past, she always had some misgivings. Otherwise, if the Lich was next to her, she wouldn't have a chance to show off her power, and the enemies would have been dealt with. She couldn't do anything even if she wanted to.
Now that she was alone, she had nothing to worry about, and there were only two cats next to her. Her Blink spell was still working, which meant that her escape route was not cut off. Compared to killing people, killing demons was even less of a psychological burden. So if she didn't take advantage of the situation now, when would she have the chance?
