MC's career as foreign lord

Chapter 87: Clash of Enemies

"Henry, next time you encounter something like this, it's best to run far away!" Zhou Ren said.

This itself requires a great deal of courage, because he is pointing out a devil who could descend again at any time.

Henry nodded slightly fearfully, took the gold coins Locke rewarded him, and slowly left.

The devil was already in Locke's hands, packed like a rice dumpling, with only a head that looked somewhat like a goat left.

The surrounding mages and priests were all there, how could an ordinary high-level devil possibly escape their grasp?

Anna asked with some doubt, "Why wasn't this human persecuted instead?"

"Because I was watching this matter!" Zhou Ren said, "Once Henry disappeared or died, the scribe who was with him wouldn't be able to hide it!"

"If time had dragged on, it would be the scene we see now!" Shia said, "Things happened too fast!"

"He won't have a chance!" Zhou Ren said.

This was not just a sigh or lament, but also a decision.

Even Zhou Ren felt the pace was too fast. Others would probably feel the same way. This oppressive and dull offensive rhythm continued almost non-stop, and wouldn't change because of their strenuous efforts.

As the saying goes, both the attackers and the defenders were too rushed. The elves themselves only wanted to resist the green dragon's attack, but now they are officially at war with the orcs.

And the other side wanted to devour their high-level combat power as soon as possible, but they never expected to run into a brick wall in someone's hands. Even if Zhou Ren and the others didn't cause trouble, it is estimated that this devil who leaked the information would be in trouble with the orcs.

"Anyway, you're going to die, why not tell us some information about the orcs?" Zhou Ren began to bargain with him.

They wouldn't let go of a mole who leaked information, and the other side naturally wouldn't let go of a devil who caused them huge losses, although this might just be a way to vent, but the orcs never pay attention to so many rules.

However, this devil seemed to have given up and was unwilling to say anything more, so they carried him around.

"I'm starting to suspect the real situation inside that house!" Zhou Ren said. They had already left the territory with a large crowd, and Locke had smoothly transferred the devil to Mosa's hands.

If he still had a chance to escape in the hands of a high-level warrior, then he would really give up when he came to a legendary mage.

Although there was no longer any suppression from the surrounding domain, he still had no intention of committing suicide. This taciturn legendary mage had a strong, unyielding bloody aura.

It was as if Anna was unwilling to speak when Mosa appeared, he carried a strong bloody aura of slaughter, no, it was the aura of a blood war.

"I feel something else!" Mosa said, he cast a probing gaze, looking at the devil, "Perhaps we can hand it over to the demons!"

"Hiss!" Zhou Ren gasped, "That's a truly genius idea! If our Mr. Demon's consciousness returns from the abyss, it certainly can be done!"

"Abyss and demons? What exactly are you discussing?" Shia asked, the little princess's small eyes were full of big doubts, staring at the two people with her cute eyes.

"Your Highness, don't worry, you'll know everything when we get there!" Since they openly said these words, they didn't plan to stop the abyss portal.

The current situation is different from before. Zhou Ren is no longer just a newly promoted lord and noble, but has an additional halo.

"Legendary Hunter!" This title is a title given by all races on the continent to top combat personnel who have killed legends.

If legends are the truly top people on the continent, then legendary hunters are the top of the top, the top of that group of people.

So even if the elves knew that they had an abyss portal, it wouldn't matter. No race wants to offend someone who can kill legends, especially when they are not sure.

"I'm not going!" After hearing this, the devil finally jumped. If he couldn't die and was caught by the demons, then he would face more than just death!

"Anyway, you're just a projection, death is just death, what are you afraid of?" Zhou Ren said with a smile. He only knew that demons and devils were mortal enemies, but he wasn't sure why.

"I'll tell you everything, but you must sign a contract with me and not hand me over to the demons!" the devil said.

"Okay, sign it!" Zhou Ren was faster than they imagined. He directly took out a stack of scrolls from somewhere.

These were Mosa's scrolls, and the god used as a guarantee on them was the adjutant of the God of Death, the Death Recorder Yergal.

The devil trembled and signed his name on the scroll. He never imagined that this elven noble would not use a Corellon scroll, nor a scroll of justice or equality, but a scroll of the ancient god of death.

This could be considered one of the scrolls he was most unwilling to sign, but he had no choice but to bow his head under the eaves. He could only grit his teeth and sign it, "You can call me... Gle!

"Gle?" Zhou Ren nodded, "Now that you've signed the contract, tell me why you came here!"

The devil said, "This is just an accident in a blood war. I don't really want to come to this world full of humans, but compared to those big guys who spend their lives in sulfur, the human world is better!"

"You really have something to do with the portal in the abyss!" Zhou Ren said, "Let's go, let's go to the door first and see what this devil dropped in the furnace!"

Mosa once told Zhou Ren one of the rules of the abyss hell, don't trust the credibility of demons, and don't trust the words of devils. These two creatures themselves do not have any trust.

So even so, this devil was still held in Mosa's hands and could not break free. The few of them crossed the town and came to the empty street, and walked into the house that had been cleaned up.

"That demon has indeed been eliminated by you!" Gle said, "Tell me your true thoughts, humans and elves!"

He had become particularly relaxed at this time. The people who threatened him were gone. At worst, he would just die. He suddenly had the idea of ​​bargaining with others!

Zhou Ren smiled, "Don't worry, let me talk about your original plan first!"

"Now that we've caught you and there's no way to return to the orcs, why don't you tell us how you contacted the orcs?" he asked.

The devil Grel seemed to find it very interesting, "Don't you guys know this? We devils can transmit messages through souls. Anyone who signs a contract with me, I can contact through their soul!"

"Ah, I've heard of it!" Zhou Ren said, "But it seems that the guy who signed a contract with you is beyond saving!"

"You really don't know?" Grel looked strange. "The legendary figure you killed was the one who signed a contract with me!"

"Ah? What a coincidence!" Zhou Ren cupped his fist. "Then I'm really sorry. I didn't actually plan to kill him!"

The people around couldn't help but roll their eyes. Fan, keep showing off. Versailles, right?

You've already killed a legendary figure, so what are we high-level people? Worthless trash you don't even want to kill?

"So, the news from this side was all provided by you!" Zhou Ren said, "In that case, everything about the mole makes sense!"

"I still don't understand!" Anna walked out and circled Zhou Ren. "Why could you and Locke so easily determine that the mole must be the secretary?"

"We previously determined that the mole must be someone who knows most, or even all, political news and intelligence. In reality, the number of people who can receive this intelligence, including us, is only six!"

Zhou Ren explained, "You two, me, the town chief, plus the elder of the Elven Empire, O'Halloran, who can understand all the intelligence. Doesn't that only leave one person?"

"Oh!" Anna nodded, but still didn't completely understand, saying as if she understood, "Could it not be someone else among us?"

"If someone was replaced, it's possible, but we happened to be analyzing when one elf wasn't around, so of course, that elf is the most suspicious!" Shia said, "Forget it, don't talk, Anna!"

"The secretary who knows all the intelligence but is almost never considered!" Zhou Ren looked at Grel, "I really want to know, you deliberately started this war, is it just to watch the elves fall?"

"Bah!" Grel sneered, "Isn't it because of you strange elves, constantly testing spells to summon devils? I was summoned over more than ten years ago!"

This time, what he said seemed to be the truth. "I need enough souls to open the passage between Hell and the Abyss!"

"That really fits the nature of a devil, cruel and arrogant!" Auster said, "Lord Zhou Ren, after the interrogation, can this devil be handed over to me?"

"Well!" Zhou Ren shook his head, "Let's take a look at the last secret of this devil!"

The group had already led the devil into the room and found the fireplace that Henry had mentioned before. In the fireplace, they found something new.

"It seems that not only demon scrolls don't disappear in fire, but devil scrolls don't either!" Zhou Ren complained. After opening the scroll in his hand, he saw patterns that were much more complicated than the demon scroll, and a few simple words.

"The person who signs the scroll can receive a large amount of money and rewards as long as they help the devil complete a small task!" Zhou Ren read, reading the words on it in the somewhat surprised eyes of the devil.

"If you violate it, you will be burned to death by evil fire..." He raised his head, "I knew you weren't telling the truth. You really have something to do with this place, and you let the demons take the blame for many things, right?"

He thought of some marks that were not burned to death in the house. Those were things they found after cleaning up. This devil wanted to use the power of the demons to fish in troubled waters!

They were the main force in absorbing souls according to the scroll!

At this time, the previous doubts were explained. Demons don't need to absorb souls through scroll transactions at all. They themselves don't lack souls, but the creatures that lack souls are devils.

Then this matter is even more interesting. It should have been something led by demons, but now it has become the benefit of this devil. If Balo knew, would he be furious?

"Why did you appear here?" Shia asked. Zhou Ren had basically understood his doubts, so of course, this devil had to be thrown to other people.

Grel breathed a sigh of relief. Among all the people, the one he feared the most was this strange young lord. You must know that the demons had been in the town for more than 10 years without being discovered. How long has this young man been in the town?

Moreover, the biggest reason for his plan's failure this time was Zhou Ren breaking the situation. Now, when he sees this smiling young man, he always feels uncomfortable in his heart.

"Actually, my arrival originated from an accident, a portal that appeared in the Abyss. I sent my projection over!"

After hearing Shia's question, this devil actually answered very quickly, as if he didn't want to continue chatting with the young man next to him.

He clearly didn't answer anything, so why does it feel like his secrets have already been revealed?

Of course, Zhou Ren didn't have this awareness. He was thinking about the conversation between him and this devil just now, and suddenly discovered a very interesting thing. If he also came through such a portal, then would he have anything to do with Balo?

Zhou Ren directly took out a scroll from his backpack, tore it open completely, and then summoned a little bit of spiritual energy phantom from inside.

"You damned human! Quickly release me from this black box. Lord Balo will tear you to pieces when he comes out!" The one speaking was still his projection in the human world. This automatic speaking function doesn't seem to have been turned off yet.

However, just as everyone's eyes gathered, the consciousness of Hell seemed to have received a reaction and quickly looked over, seeing the initiator of the scroll and the people around him.

He seemed a little nervous for a moment, "Human... what do you want to do? We have an agreement!"

The appearance of this face also surprised the devil beside him, and he suddenly wanted to shrink back, but he didn't seem to have this opportunity.

Just now, the elf princess next to him was asking him about the Hell portal. After seeing this situation, she stretched forward without hesitation and exposed his face to Balo.

Everyone is a wise creature, and gossip and eating melons are the nature of wise creatures. It seems that these two guys who are inherently enemies have huge hatred!

"Roar! You damned, disgusting, untrustworthy, and nauseating little bastard! Why do you dare to appear in front of me?" Sure enough, demons generally don't disappoint.
