On the devastated land of the Purgatory Abyss, a group of buildings with blue roofs and white walls had appeared out of nowhere. They were a stark contrast to the dark red land around them. What was even more shocking was that there were some long guns and cannons mounted on the steel walls around these buildings. These cannons were constantly on alert against any approaching targets. The floating cannons were constantly patrolling in the air. The Arcane Eye enchanted on the cannons could see everything around them. Together with the base's internal radar, the cannons could ensure that they were fully aware of the situation around the base.
The demons that wandered nearby were very curious. Every now and then, a demon would try to sneak a peek. However, they would be "treated" with incomparable enthusiasm and be beaten to a pulp.
Occasionally, demons would come out of the chaotic portals and discover this place. They would immediately launch an attack, but they would also be fiercely suppressed. The people inside seemed to have no sense of security. No matter if they were demons or demons, they were treated equally.
On the wall of the base, a soldier sat in the sentry cannon and looked at the wandering demons in the distance. He began to complain. "Lava, steam, demons, demons … There's nothing but these. Damn it, I'm starting to regret coming here."
Another soldier on duty heard him and glared at him. "Stop complaining. Being selected to come here means that you're already one of the best. Ordinary people don't even qualify to come here. What we need to do now is to save the homeland of mankind."
"Yes, yes, yes. But can anyone tell me how to distinguish between demons and demons?"
Because they couldn't tell the difference between demons and demons, the soldiers in the base would open fire as soon as they found a suspicious target. The soldier helplessly shouted, "Didn't we say that after we came here, our demon allies would come and rescue us? It's been a week, and we haven't seen a single trace of them! "
"Maybe Commander Depp knows something. This is not something we should know. We just have to do our own thing."
As soon as the soldier finished speaking, the soldier beside him suddenly shouted, "There's a situation at 11 o 'clock! The sentry cannon has been activated. Confirming that the ammunition is loaded. Waiting for the target to enter the firing range! "
The floating cannons were already moving in that direction. On the screen, the figures in the distance were getting clearer and clearer. Then, they saw a group of "creatures" approaching in an orderly manner.
"We still can't tell if it's a demon or a devil. Continue with the expulsion strategy —"
Depp's voice rang out from the communicator beside him. "Hold on. Don't fire. That's our 'ally'."
"In other words, these are devils? He looks no different from a demon! "
All the soldiers watching the screen were a little confused. If they were to fight on the battlefield, it would be troublesome to distinguish between friend and foe.
Soon, the group of devils flew to the sky above the base. They looked down at the human soldiers in the base in silence.
The soldiers who were being stared at immediately became nervous. Although they were allies, they hadn't fought together even once. They didn't know if the other party was reliable.
Compared to the overall strength of the human soldiers, the demons were too powerful. If they turned hostile, all the human soldiers present would be forced to 'return'.
A moment later, a figure quickly appeared in front of the demons. After seeing the newcomer, the soldiers below heaved a sigh of relief. In any case, they saw a familiar face.
It was Sylveria.
"Where's Depp?"
Sylveria's voice echoed throughout the base. A moment later, Depp walked out of the command center and said to her, "Miss Sylveria, we've been waiting here for a long time. Please come in."
Depp waved a hand. A crack suddenly appeared in the protective shield, allowing them to enter.
Sylveria led the demons into the base and allowed them to look around curiously. She said to Depp, "There was an accident earlier, so I was delayed a little. I hope you can explain it to Lord Tang En so there won't be any misunderstandings."
Sylveria wanted to ride on Tang En's coattails. She didn't want any conflicts to arise because of this misunderstanding.
"I understand. But what was the accident? Can you explain it to me?"
Depp was more concerned about whether the accident had anything to do with the war.
"An army of demons suddenly appeared in Malogus Mountain and launched a surprise attack on a nearby demon village. Because it happened so suddenly, we didn't raise our guard. As a result, we suffered heavy casualties. His Majesty Barmetos was furious. He personally led an army to launch a counterattack. We just killed all the demons. They're now investigating the spatial nodes near Malogus Mountain. They suspect there might be marks left behind by the demons," Sylveria explained.
"I rushed over as soon as the battle over there ended. I hope I didn't miss anything," Sylphlia explained.
Depp nodded. "Everything's fine. His Majesty Twain has chosen a relatively safe location. We've been stationed here for a week, and we haven't encountered any particularly powerful enemies. Now, what we need to determine is which part of the Purgatory Abyss we're in. That way, we'll be able to determine our location."
Currently, Depp and the others were completely clueless about the Purgatory Abyss. As the war progressed, they would need to draw a detailed map. The most important part was, of course, the areas occupied by the demons.
They couldn't rely on the demons for this. Although they'd lived and fought here for tens of thousands of years, they'd never considered drawing a map.
Sylveria thought for a moment and said, "If you move forward from where you set up your base … about 500 kilometers, you'll enter the Bloody Battlefield, where we frequently fight the demons. This area is the buffer zone before the battlefield. But since we clean up the area regularly, it's still relatively safe for now."
When Depp and the others heard that they were only five hundred kilometers away from the main battlefield, they broke out in a cold sweat. Five hundred kilometers might seem like a long distance, but for the powerful demons, it was no different from paying a visit to their neighbor's house.
"His Majesty Barmetos already knows of your arrival, so he ordered us to set up camp near you and build a base to protect you. To be honest, I don't think we need you humans to participate in this war. You're too weak. You'll only be a burden to us if you come."
The demon who spoke was a Skeletal Chain Demon. He looked more like a human, but his body was wrapped in metal chains instead of clothes. He was about two meters tall, and the metal chains on his body were stained with green blood. It was obvious that he'd killed many demons on the battlefield.
The Skeletal Chain Demon's aura was so strong that Depp found it hard to breathe in front of him. The Skeletal Chain Demon was at least a master of the Extraordinary level. However, Depp knew that he was standing here to represent the dignity of mankind. Therefore, even if he could not resist the Skeletal Chain Demon's aura, he still stood there and stared at the Skeletal Chain Demon without backing down. "Every one of us is willing to sacrifice everything to protect our homeland. His Majesty Twain said that although we humans are weak, we have amazing talents. As long as we have a strong soul, we are not weaker than any master!"
"What a laughable idea. Weaklings will always be weaklings. On a battlefield of this level, you're not even cannon fodder."
Sylveria frowned. "Krakhoyle, you're talking too much! This is a joint decision made by His Majesty Barmetos and Tang En Majesty. Do you have any objections? "
"Ha, of course not."
Even though he said he didn't dare, Clarhoyle clearly lacked respect for Sylveria. On one hand, it was because Sylveria was the weakest of the twelve archdukes. On the other hand, it was because he had always looked down on humans.
The weak humans were nothing more than pets that had been kept in a greenhouse. How could they compare to the Devil Race that had been constantly slaughtering their way through this cruel environment since birth?
Danny said slowly, "You're Krakhoyle?"
"That's right."
Tom asked unhappily, "What right do you have to look down on humans?"
Krakhoyle chuckled. "Since you've seen through me, there's no need for me to hide it. Yes, I do look down on you humans. You're just playthings. How dare you dream of cooperating with us to fight against the demons? That's ridiculous. "
Locke came up and asked tentatively, "You should know how we humans evaluate our strength, right? What's your level?"
Krakhoyle said calmly, "According to your human standards, I'm already at the peak of supreme. As a demon lord, I've already touched the edge of the law. I can advance to legendary at any time and become another Archduke."
Ultraman nodded. "Oh … Looks like you're very strong."
Krakhoyle looked at them mockingly. "At least, I'm much stronger than you humans. I can destroy you all by myself."
No, I can't take it anymore!
They looked at each other and then at Elsa at the same time. Danny urged, "Big Sis, why don't you go and greet him?"
Depp slapped his forehead. He was speechless, but he didn't stop them. The way the demons looked at them was too disgusting. It was as if they were looking at toys in their hands.
"Hello —"
Elsa waved at Krakhoyle with a harmless smile.
"I'm not —"
"Boom!"
Krakhoyle disappeared in front of everyone with a dull thud.
"Goodbye."
Elsa retracted her fist and turned to look at the demons. The sweet smile on her face was terrifying. "Who else looks down on us? Come at me together. I can take on a hundred demons like him! "
