In the room, Tang En and Sylphlia sat opposite each other. Sylphlia had just returned from the Purgatory Abyss. After a period of investigation, she had collected a lot of useful information. This time, she came back to get Tang En's support.
Tang En looked at her thoughtfully and said, "You're saying that Barmetos has been acting strangely recently?"
Sylphlia nodded and licked her red lips with a smile on her face. "Although there is no direct evidence that Barmetos is under his control, we can infer from the information gathered from the other dukes that Barmetos is indeed different from how he was in the past."
She pushed out the information she had compiled, knocked on the table, and said excitedly, "This is the information I have compiled. Based on this information, there is enough evidence to show that Barmetos has been corrupted by the power of Chaos."
Excited? Yes, of course Sylphlia was excited.
As a grand duke, she had enough respect for Demon King Barmetos, but this did not mean that she did not want to go further.
It was just that Barmetos had always been above her, and her fighting strength was not considered strong among the grand dukes, so she had no chance at all.
But now, it was different. She was the first to stand on Tang En's side, and the first to personally experience the terrifying power of Tang En.
Sylphlia was very clear that Tang En was a rare golden thigh. As long as she firmly clung to this golden thigh, she would definitely be able to do well among the demons.
If she did well, she might even have a chance to become the Demon King …
"The changes in Barmetos are very subtle. If you stay with him all the time, you will hardly notice these changes."
Sylphlia was reminded by Twain and went back to observe carefully. Only then did she discover some abnormalities. Under her indirect questioning, the other grand dukes suddenly realized that their Demon King was indeed a little different from the Demon King at the beginning.
"The most obvious point is that he rarely appears on the battlefield to fight the demons head-on."
In the past, Barmetos was definitely the fiercest one on the battlefield. He even dared to go in and out of the demon army alone. He was the idol of all the demons.
"But now, Barmetos is more at the back to command from afar."
As this change in role happened little by little, very few demons noticed it. They only thought that he was a little tired after ten thousand years of fighting, so he wanted to take a break and change roles.
However, when combined with other information, they realized that things weren't that simple.
Barmetos had frequently disappeared from the demons' sight in recent years.
Every time Barmetos disappeared without a trace, the demons' offensive would shrink for a period of time. and when Barmetos returned, the demons' offensive strategy would change to a certain extent.
In the beginning, no demons made the connection between the two, but after Sylphlia hinted, they suddenly realized that the situation seemed to be a little subtle.
If once was a coincidence, then twice, thrice, or even eight or ten times could be a coincidence.
These were not the only changes in Barmetos. There were many strange things. When Sylphlia listed all the things that seemed ordinary and organized them through a grid, she found that these seemingly ordinary things were actually inextricably linked to each other.
After connecting all these things together, it was almost certain that Barmetos had been corrupted and degenerated.
"In other words, the mastermind standing behind Stanley can be confirmed to be Barmetos."
Tang En was deep in thought. "Now, there is another question. How many grand dukes know this information and are willing to deal with Barmetos and the demons with us?"
Sylphlia covered her mouth and laughed. "Are you kidding? How could they give up such a good opportunity? "
Just as Sylphlia had said, being able to pull down Demon King Barmetos was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Normally, they would definitely not have such thoughts. Only after confirming that Barmetos had been corrupted by chaos would they have the courage and reason to make a move against him.
However, these grand dukes were definitely not stupid. The cunning of devils was deeply ingrained in their bones. They clearly knew the truth, but until now, no one had revealed the truth. This showed that they were all waiting for the first brave warrior to jump out and be the vanguard. Of course, they were more willing to wait at ease and be the winner in the end.
Among the twelve grand dukes, the strongest was the pit fiend Grand Duke Gorius, followed by the spike fiend Grand Duke Zakunkandar and the sawblade fiend Grand Duke Kukavosov. If Barmetos was overthrown, the three of them were the most likely to become the new Demon King.
As for Sylphlia … As the weakest of the twelve grand dukes, the other grand dukes didn't see her as an opponent at all.
After all, they were lustful devils and pleasure devils who relied on pleasing the opposite sex to survive. While their fighting prowess was unparalleled in that aspect, when it came to killing … Forget it.
After listening to Sylphlia's analysis, Tang En couldn't help but laugh, "That is to say, if we're willing to be the vanguard, the other grand dukes will definitely support us?"
"At least on the surface, they'll support us. As for sending their subordinates to fight for us …" Sylphlia said sarcastically, "I'd rather rely on these human warriors of yours."
"That doesn't matter. What I'm worried about now is that if we make a move against Barmetos, they'll stab us in the back. I don't expect them to be of any help, as long as they don't drag us down. "
Tang En tapped the table lightly and muttered to himself for a moment, "What do you think is the possibility of luring Barmetos out alone and killing him?"
Sylphlia shook her head, "It's almost impossible. He's in a delicate state now. It's very likely that he's already on guard against us."
Although Barmetos had been corrupted and his behavior had become extreme and crazy, he still retained his own consciousness, which was the most terrifying part. If he could really control all the demons because of the power of Chaos, then he would now be Tang En's most terrifying enemy.
What was even more terrifying was that Tang En was worried that Barmetos would deliberately send the demons to their deaths in order to expand his power. Once the self-aware demons were corrupted, they would completely become his puppets, which was the most terrifying part.
Therefore, Barmetos had to die — and he had to die as soon as possible!
Sylphlia looked at Tang En expectantly, "Human King, do you already have a plan?"
Tang En suddenly laughed, "It seems that you're looking forward to becoming the new Demon King?"
Sylphlia circled behind Twain and hugged his head. She massaged Twain's head with her ample breasts and said coquettishly, "A demon who doesn't want to be a demon king isn't a good demon. I didn't have a chance before, but now that I have a chance, I won't miss it."
"Well said."
Tang En applauded, "Then, to deal with Barmetos, how many warriors can you send?"
Sylphlia's body stiffened, and she laughed, "Don't joke with me. The fighting strength of our Lustful Demons is not even comparable to your warriors …"
Tang En laughed, "You're right, but those warriors are my people. Since they're my people, why should I sacrifice them to help you become the Demon King?"
Sylphlia was speechless.
Tang En still had one more thing to say. He still had Winette here. As an emissary sent by the Dark God Apophis to Prandal, Winette's mission was probably to solve the problem of Barmetos' corruption.
But he did not expect that Barmetos would use human hands to seal Winette.
In this way, many things made sense.
Barmetos probably did not expect that Winette would be rescued by Tang En and even brought to the Abyss of Purgatory.
When he saw Winette, he deliberately pretended not to admit that Winette was an emissary in order to deceive Tang En and the others.
Later, the demons retreated from the camp in the Great Rift Valley because they quietly opened up a land on the sea on the other side of Prandal. They wanted to establish a base there and then occupy the whole of Prandal.
Barmetos was the leader of the demons. When the demons invaded Prandal, Tang En went to ask for help, of course, he would not agree. Although he could bring a large number of demons to Prandal with reasonable excuses, those demons were not as obedient as the demons.
"You go back first. Secretly spread the news and test his reaction. I want to know how he plans to deal with this situation."
Tang En pondered for a moment and said, "Then I need to carefully consider the pros and cons of fighting Barmetos. When I decide, I will go to you."
"Really?"
Sylphlia was very surprised. Tang En was willing to go to her, which at least meant that she still had hope. "Don't lie to me!"
"I'm not a demon. Of course, I won't lie to you."
At this time, Fiona pushed the door open and came in. After seeing the scene in front of her, she was shocked and angry. "You shameless demon, stay away from him!"
"Ah, I got caught red-handed."
Sylphlia deliberately rubbed the back of Tang En's head and then threw a flying kiss to Fiona. With a bang, she disappeared.
Being stared at by Fiona, Tang En's scalp tightened. He raised his hands and said, "Uh … We were discussing business. We didn't do anything …"
Fiona said faintly, "It's because there was not enough time …"
Tang En was speechless.
