Outside a room, Tang En and Sylveria stood opposite each other. They looked at the room in front of them with solemn expressions.
"So, even he himself doesn't know who transformed him into the so-called demon?"
Tang En was deep in thought. If this was the case, some things could be easily guessed.
Sylveria said with a mocking expression, "Yes. What's ridiculous is that he doesn't know that the blood of demons and devils are different in color."
That's right. Stanley's blood was red, and Tang En and the others who had fought against demons knew that due to the corrosive effect of the aura of chaos, the blood of demons was basically green. Only a few demons would show some special colors for some special reasons.
The important significance of this discovery was that Tang En and the others knew that Stanley had actually been transformed into a devil and not a demon. Moreover, he was a devil who could control demons!
In the Purgatory Abyss, what existences could transform humans into demons? There were many of them, and even a great devil could do it.
However, this was only transforming humans into devils, and Stanley was a devil who could control demons. The meaning behind this was very intriguing.
A devil who could control demons had never appeared in the history of the Purgatory Abyss for tens of thousands of years. Stanley was the first one to be discovered. No matter what method he used to achieve it, it showed one very important thing-demons were not completely uncontrollable.
More importantly, she sensed a familiar aura from Stanley's body. Stanley didn't know whose aura it was, but she was very clear about it.
It was the aura of Demon King Barmetos.
Yes, the one who transformed Stanley into a demon was the current Demon King Barmetos!
The answer was shocking and inconceivable, but it was the closest to the truth at the moment.
"I can't figure out why he did this."
Sylveria shook her head, and the expression on her face was a little complicated. Her boss was inexplicably going against humans, and she was now fulfilling the contract to help humans train their Apocalypse …
No matter how she thought about it, it felt very awkward.
"I can't figure it out either, but it's meaningless. I only know that Barmetos is probably plotting something. It's not just us humans who are being schemed against. It's very likely that you demons are being schemed against as well."
Tang En said meaningfully, "Think about it carefully. You devils and demons have been fighting for so many years. Is it really because demons are invincible?"
Tang En's words made Sylphlia turn silent. She had no choice but to carefully consider this possibility. After all, what Tang En said wasn't impossible. If Demon King Barmetos was really controlling the ten thousand years of bloody war in the Purgatory Abyss, then perhaps the entire Devil Race would revolt.
However … there was still an unavoidable problem.
"I still don't understand why he would do that."
Sylphlia was very puzzled. "As the King of Devils, he already has everything. No one can doubt him, and no one can resist his rule. If he completely defeats the demons, the entire Purgatory Abyss will belong to him. What is there for him to be dissatisfied with?"
"Perhaps it's precisely because he knows that after defeating the demons, there will be no more opponents in the entire Purgatory Abyss that he has been controlling the rhythm of the war and not letting you win."
Tang En proposed a hypothesis. "Because if you win, it means that the devils will lose external pressure. Then, if nothing unexpected happens, they will fall into internal strife. As the King of Devils, he will naturally bear the brunt of it."
Even if Demon King Barmetos was a species personally created by the God of Darkness, Apophis, it was impossible for him to fight against the entire Devil Race by himself.
"So, in order to maintain the stability of his rule, he would do such a thing …"
Sylphlia was silent. The possibility of what Tang En said was very high. With her understanding of Barmetos, he would probably really do such a thing.
Tang En continued, "Then, here's the question. We have discovered Barmetos' secret. Which side will you stand on?"
"It's just a possibility!"
Sylphlia corrected Tang En. "Perhaps there are other reasons. Even I can detect his aura on Stanley. How could he not think of it? Perhaps it's another mysterious existence who deliberately pretends to be His Majesty the Demon King's aura to mislead our judgment. The purpose is to make you fall out with His Majesty the Demon King. "
Tang En spread his hands. "No matter who did it, there's an unavoidable situation — how did he leave Barmetos' aura on Stanley? You must know that a person's aura is very special. It's almost impossible for others to copy it. This means that whether the person who did it is Barmetos or not, he can't get away with it. "
The Devil King Barmetos, or one of his trusted subordinates, in order to achieve a certain goal, had transformed the soul of the human king, Stanley, into a devil. Through him, they had indirectly controlled the demons to attack the human kingdom. This matter was almost confirmed.
At the same time, Barmetos was also suspected of secretly manipulating the war on the Bloody Battlefield, causing the Devil Race to be unable to win.
Sylphlia asked Tang En, "What do you want to do?"
Tang En corrected her. "It's not what I want to do, but what you want to do."
"Me?"
"Now only the two of us know about this matter. If you can't sign a contract with me and stand on the same side, then I can only imprison you here with great regret. After all, I don't know whether this is the private action of Demon King Barmetos or a long-planned plan of the Devil Race."
Seeing that Tang En's expression was very serious and did not look like he was joking at all, Sylphlia could only helplessly raise her hand. "Well, I'll tell you frankly. I don't know at all, okay? If I knew that His Majesty the Demon King had such a plan, I wouldn't have come to Ellington even if you beat me to death. Isn't this taking my life as a joke? "
Sylphlia knew very well that Tang En had the ability to kill her, so she did not dare to joke with Tang En on this matter. "If you want, of course I can sign a contract with you. We can even work together to deal with Barmetos. How about it? — Provided that he really did all this. "
"Oh?"
Tang En raised his eyebrows. "Are you sure you want to do this?"
"Of course."
Sylphlia said very straightforwardly. "Isn't this normal? Since he doesn't take the lives of his people seriously, why should we continue to worship him as king? And he has been the Demon King for so long. It's time for a new queen, isn't it? "
Sylphlia licked her lips and said to Tang En in a seductive voice, "You will help me, right? If I become the Queen of Devils, I will definitely ally with you and help you completely eliminate the threat of the demons. I will give everything to you, the great King of Humans. I promise. "
Tang En snorted at this. Whoever believed the demon's promise would be unlucky. As long as the agreement between the two parties was not carefully written in a clear text that both parties could understand in the contract, these demons would start to use their own cunning means to avoid responsibility after achieving their goal. In the blink of an eye, all the previous promises would be thrown to the back of their minds.
"Of course I will help you, but whether or not I can become the Queen of Devils is not up to me."
Tang En ignored her seduction and said lightly, "Don't forget, besides you, there are still eleven Archdukes. If Barmetos dies, the throne of the Demon King is full of temptation for all of them. Competition is inevitable."
"Of course I know."
Sylphlia had already laid on Tang En's back. Her firm and large breasts kept rubbing against Tang En. She said in a voice that tickled the bottom of one's heart, "A new Demon King is not good for you. You need a new Demon King who is obedient and worthy of support, right? Isn't supporting me much better than supporting those stinky guys? "
After witnessing Twain's unparalleled power a while ago, Sylphlia had already given up on the idea of finding trouble for him. She had already regarded Twain as the only golden thigh in the world. Taking advantage of the fact that there was a basis for cooperation between the two of them, she naturally had to hold on tightly to this golden thigh.
To be honest, if it were not for Tang En's constant disdain for her, she would have knelt down and licked his toes, crying and begging him to "not provoke" her.
Tang En was indeed moved by Sylphlia's words, but the situation was still unclear, so of course he could not promise her anything.
In particular, Tang En could not start a war with the Demon King now. One Demon was already very difficult for him. If he forcibly added another enemy, it would only force him into a dead end.
And the Demon King would probably not be willing to expose the truth of him controlling Demons.
This matter would probably remain a secret between Tang En and Barmetos until they completely shed all pretense of cordiality.
"It's impossible for me to promise you now. Now we need to continue investigating and confirm our guesses, especially regarding Barmetos."
Tang En stared into her eyes and said, "We can first sign a mutual cooperation contract. This is the foundation to ensure our cooperation and bind us not to betray each other. This is the condition for me to give you freedom … As for what you said about supporting you to become the queen of the devils, let's talk about it when we have the chance in the future."
Sylphlia was very disappointed that she did not achieve her expected goal, but she was already very satisfied to be able to sign a contract, dispel Tang En's suspicions, and obtain freedom.
What she had to do next was to investigate the other eleven grand dukes and see if they knew anything about this matter. At the same time, she would also observe Demon King Barmetos. Perhaps she could find some clues.
If she could really confirm that all of this was done by Barmetos, then Tang En could directly start a war with him and support the new Demon King.
The premise was that … everything was as wonderful as she thought.
