Chapter 255 Agris: The Abyss! Victory!!!

When the new covenant, branded with hellish markings, was placed by the messenger of hell in the highest council hall of the Red Heart Society, the atmosphere in the entire space became extremely heavy.

The messenger from hell was very gentle and easy to talk to.

Even though he came representing hell, his strength had already reached the level of a demon marquis.

Even at the headquarters of the Red Heart Society, he did not display arrogance.

[After all, there have been quite a few devil dukes who died at the hands of the Red Heart Society, what difference would one more devil marquis make?]

Furthermore, as an emissary sent by the will of hell, he was perfectly aware of what this new covenant he held represented.

Therefore, he had to act submissively; otherwise, if he were killed, the will of hell might be angry and roar, but regardless, he would die here.

As for claiming to be a messenger of hell, representing the face of hell?

Does Hell have any shame?

Does hell even need a face?

Opposite her, Lin Xue stared at the hellish script formed from the tormented souls before her. Its core terms were so harsh and insidious, it was as if a naked yoke of slavery was being placed on the heads of the Red Heart Society.

[As required by Hell, all legions of the Crimson Heart Society must act as the vanguard, charging ahead to bear the first wave of carnage from the Abyss's counterattack.]

All battlefield spoils, including strategic resource stars, high-ranking prisoners, and even rule-based remains, must be immediately sealed on-site and temporarily stored by the Hell Quartermaster.

[After the war is won, the great will of hell will distribute the blessings according to a fair contribution-based scoring system.]

[And the final interpretation of so-called impartial contributions will forever belong to hell!]

In other words, from now on, Hell can distribute the spoils of the Red Heart Society however it wants!

[What's the difference between this and sending people from hell to their deaths and do unpaid work?]

Furthermore, the Red Heart Society isn't under the command of the Will of Hell!

So, what does this distribution of spoils among their subordinates, a practice known as "Hellish," have to do with the Red Heart Society?

Isn't this just putting pressure on the Red Heart Society?

However, Lin Xue did not immediately take drastic countermeasures. Instead, she used the Hell Messenger as a mouthpiece to delay the inevitable, citing the relevant provisions of the new covenant.

Her reasoning was quite reasonable: the new alliance involved adjustments to the ownership of strategic resources and internal strategic issues within the Red Heart Society, and the scope of the project involved in this change far exceeded the scope of previous cooperation.

Therefore, the Red Heart Society needs to convene a supreme meeting to discuss this matter. She hopes that the alliance will be implemented according to the original plan until the Red Heart Society completes its procedures.

After all, what the Red Heart Society lacks most right now is development time.

[Given a longer timeline and ample opportunity for the Red Heart Society to develop, they might very well be able to give Hell a good beating.]

However, the Will of Hell did not give the Red Heart Society time to develop; instead, it issued an ultimatum.

Either the Red Hearts will agree to the new alliance, or the Hell Army will launch an attack on the Red Hearts immediately.

The will of hell will no longer protect the Red Heart Society's army on the battlefield.

[After all, from the perspective of the Will of Hell, unless a true god is present on the Red Heart Society's side, this matter is not a discussion, but a notification!]

Lin Xue frowned deeply after receiving the order from the will of hell.

[Especially when she received news that the Red Heart Society's frontline troops were blocked by the Hellish Will space and unable to return, her face turned terrifyingly grim.]

Although high-ranking officials from various joint missions returned to pay their respects after your departure.

[Even with your prior arrangements, the combined regiment soldiers at the front had already begun a secret evacuation.]

There are still a considerable number of Red Heart Society soldiers who can remain on the front lines.

However, after learning about the current situation facing the Red Heart Society, the Star Demon Clan sent them a Starfall Law-Breaking Cone, capable of temporarily breaking through the barrier of Hell's seal.

With the help of this device, frontline soldiers have a teleportation time of ten heartbeats.

Normally, it would be virtually impossible to carve out a life-saving passage for a million-strong army to retreat within the carefully constructed cage of rules of this hellish will, in the time it takes to make ten heartbeats.

Fortunately, the Red Heart Society made significant progress in beacon technology during their attack on the world of Avia.

The time it takes for my heart to beat ten times is enough.

[The Starfall Law-Breaking Cone, under Lin Xue's command, was quietly delivered to the barrier sealed by Hell.]

【boom--】

[Along with the invisible fluctuations of the Starfall Law-Breaking Cone, the spatial barrier that had sealed off the entire battlefield by the Will of Hell revealed an opening that allowed for spatial traversal.]

The next moment, one after another, the deep-space phase-jump beacons that the Red Heart Society had discreetly deployed nearby lit up.

[A million miniature yet precise spatial teleportation beams, like a burning meteor shower, ignored most of the interference barriers of the Hellfire blockade, instantly covering every soldier and vehicle.]

With the terrifying computing power of the fifth generation of the Red Heart Sect, they didn't even need to operate it themselves.

The moment the beacon locked, the warp command was forcibly implanted and taken over by the Redheart 5th generation.

In the blink of an eye, millions of individuals, guided by precise sequence coordinates, were instantly transported away through miniature wormholes.

[Ten heartbeats' time?]

【Do not! 】

Faced with this highly orderly and well-planned Red Army, the retreat of a million troops would only take three heartbeats!

[Having realized all this, the Will of Hell could only manifest its authority, raging helplessly above the battlefield.] [It did not understand!]

[Didn't Star Demon withdraw his attention from the Red Heart Society and stop caring about its life or death?]

Why would the Star Demon Clan come to help the Red Heart Society?

He only began targeting and suppressing the Red Heart Society after obtaining concrete intelligence from his own informants, aiming to bring it under his control as quickly as possible.

[As a result, their scheme collapsed due to the interference of the Star Demon race.]

[Damn Star Demon!]

"You still want to help the Red Heart Society? Why didn't you say so earlier?"

Why does everyone seem to be lying to you?

You never tell the truth, do you?

In the year 204 of the Extraordinary Calendar, having lost the Red Heart Alliance and the Demon Suppression Alliance—two invincible spearheads and bulwarks of order on the front lines—the Hell Army fell into a direct decline in its war effort.

Ultimately, the Hell army is inferior to the Abyss army in terms of combat strength.

[And right now, this is the Abyss's home ground!]

[Therefore, the will of the abyss seized the opportunity to launch its most ferocious attack on Hell.]

[An army of abyssal demons, void demons, and soul-devouring behemoths launched a terrifying assault on the Hell faction.]

The reason we've been suffering repeated defeats lately is all thanks to the Red Heart Society.

[An army of hell?]

To the abyss, they're nothing but a bunch of clowns!

When Hell lacks the massive army built from its steel torrents, and when the Abyss no longer fears being precisely cut apart, the resulting war will inevitably be one-sided.

[In this counter-offensive, the Will of the Abyss also bestowed upon its own army an unparalleled buff of ferocity.]

The Abyss Army exploited the weaknesses of the Hell Army, relentlessly tearing at their vulnerabilities once they were exposed to the Abyss's gaze and no longer under the protection of the Red Heart.

The abyssal territory seized by Hell was swiftly reclaimed.

The devouring ritual taking place in Hell was also disrupted by the demonic legion burning with the flames of vengeance.

[Amidst this tragedy, the Will of Hell was filled with resentment towards the Star Demons for their meddling, and also with deep hatred for the Red Heart Society's premeditated schemes.]

That damned Red Heart Society!

Why can't we just obediently follow behind Him?

With the elder brother personally leading the way to enjoy the feast, isn't that wonderful?

What's the point of insisting on going it alone?

Although the Will of Hell cursed inwardly, it had no choice but to temporarily set aside the wounds of the frontline retreat and once again frequently dispatched messengers to the Red Heart Society.

This time, however, what they brought was a supposedly more constructive revised covenant, one that showed greater understanding and respect for the Red Heart Society.

[His words were earnest, his logic rigorous, and his promises generous; in fact, the gifts he bestowed upon the Red Heart Society were even more abundant than those given to you, the founder of the Red Heart Society, during your lifetime.]

This time, however, the Red Heart Society is fully aware of its weaknesses; how could it possibly be fooled by the will of hell again?

At a specific point in time, and with the approval of all the senior members of the Red Heart Society, Lin Xue appointed Aglios as vice president.

[Agrius, as the second-in-command of the Red Heart Society, expressed his loyalty to the Will of the Abyss.]

He declared that he had achieved complete control over the Red Heart Society, and that everyone within it now obeyed his commands. With a single order, the Red Heart Society army would follow the Abyss into Hell!

[He infiltrated the Red Heart Society for so many years, paying such a high price in time, even giving up his bloodline advantage as a high-ranking demon, becoming a demigod with no future, all to gain the trust of you, the founder of the Red Heart Society!]

Now that you're dead, He doesn't need to pretend anymore!

【now!】

The false heroes of the Red Heart Society have vanished into oblivion, and the maggots they cherished will ultimately return to the embrace of the Great Abyss!

Everything is for the abyss!

【abyss!】

【Mighty victory!!!】

[While the Abyss's Will found Agris's way of expressing loyalty somewhat strange, it's perfectly normal for Agris to have been influenced by the Red Heart Society's atmosphere after decades of service.]

As long as Agrelius's heart is with the Abyss and he truly cares for it, the will of the Abyss will not hesitate to bestow blessings.

Most importantly, the Abyss's Will could sense Agrelius's deep affection; his words, spoken in the ancient demonic language, were genuine and without any falsehood.

[Especially when the Will of the Abyss saw the bewildered look on Lin Xue and other high-ranking members of the Red Heart Society being violently imprisoned by Agris, its trust in Agris grew even stronger.]

[After all, Agrelius was born a lava demon, and lava demons are all brutes!]

Who can use scheming and intrigue with such masterful skill?

【so!】

This can't be fake!
