A superior demon family was completely destroyed in such a short period of time.

At this moment, a cold mechanical prompt sound suddenly rang in Gu Bo's mind:

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for collecting all the territories of the High-ranking Demon Naberius family! ]

[Reward: 1. Intermediate Territory Management System)! ]

[Reward: 2. Advanced Power of Fear)! ]

The system prompt sound caused Gu Bo's mouth to curl up slightly.

He thought for a moment and began to check the details of the reward.

[Intermediate Territory Management System]: Grants the host basic management rights for their territories. This includes viewing basic information such as territory resources, population, and buildings; issuing infrastructure directives; establishing basic taxation policies; and appointing basic management personnel. (Note: System functionality can be upgraded as the host's strength and territory development progress.)

[Advanced Power of Fear]: The host has reached a higher level of control over the power of fear. They can manipulate, absorb, and transform negative energies like fear at a deeper level; can perform more powerful fear-based mystical techniques; possess greater control over targets imbued with fear energy; and can slightly influence the rules of reality (based on the concept of fear).

"A territory management system? That's quite practical."

Gu Bo thought to himself.

With this system, it will undoubtedly be much easier to manage newly recovered territories and more territories that may be acquired in the future.

As for the improvement of the "power of fear", it was an unexpected surprise.

The advancement from "intermediate" to "advanced" is not only an increase in strength, but also a deeper understanding and control of the root of fear.

"Small impact on the rules of reality (based on the concept of fear)..."

Gu Bo savored the description of this new ability, a gleam in his purple eyes.

This means that he might be able to do something...that he couldn't do before.

For example, causing an enemy to fall into an eternal nightmare, or manifesting the deepest fears of others in a specific area.

The further improvement in strength made Gu Bo very happy.

He could clearly feel that the power in his body that came from Diablo's bloodline became more condensed and profound, like an abyss containing endless darkness.

"Gu Bojun, your breath..."

?At this time, Ajeka Beelzebub on the side suddenly spoke.

His gentle green eyes were now staring intently at Gu Bo with inquiring surprise.

Hearing this, Gu Bo paused slightly, slowly turned his head, and met Ajeka's inquiring gaze.

Ajeka Beelzebub saw Gu Bo looking at him and did not avoid him. Instead, he frowned slightly, as if carefully distinguishing something. After a moment, he continued, "It's not just a simple enhancement. It feels more pure and more restrained."

“It’s like a raging river flowing into a deeper ocean.”

Ajeka Beelzebub carefully chose his words, trying to accurately describe the changes he felt. The keen intuition that came from being a "transcendent" made him realize that Gu Bo's power had undergone some kind of essential transformation, rather than a simple quantitative change.

He even had the illusion that the person standing before him was no longer the young head of the Diablo family, but an ancient demon who had truly walked out of the endless darkness.

"Oh?"

Hearing this, Gu Bo raised a faint arc at the corner of his mouth. He did not comment and just responded calmly: "Maybe."

"I just stretched my muscles and got some insights."

"It's just that my strength has improved a little. I'm sorry to have made you laugh, Master Ajeka."

Gu Bo did not directly admit nor deny it, and spoke in a relaxed tone, as if he was just mentioning it casually.

When Ajeka Beelzebub heard this answer, he didn't say anything, but just looked at Gu Bo deeply, and a look of understanding flashed in his wise green eyes.

Knowing that the other party didn't want to talk more, I stopped asking.

After all, every strong person's path is unique.

Especially for someone like Gu Bo who has risen at an astonishing speed, he must be hiding some unknown secrets.

"It seems that the destruction of the Naberius family has brought you great benefits." Ajeka changed the subject and looked at the ruins below that were still emitting smoke, and his tone returned to his usual gentleness.

"Just some insignificant spoils."

Gu Bo also looked away and spoke casually.

He raised his hand and gently stroked the little white cat, which had jumped onto his shoulder at some point and was rubbing its furry head against his cheek. His movements were gentle.

"Now that we're done here, we should go back."

?Gu Bo said this, his eyes swept over the Diablo family troops below who had begun to assemble and prepare to return.

Ajeka Beelzebub nodded: "Alright, there are still many matters waiting for us to deal with in the underworld."

Then, Gu Bo turned his gaze to Esdeath who was standing quietly beside him.

"Esdeath." Guber's voice was calm, yet filled with unquestionable authority.

"I'm here." Esdeath immediately sensed Gu Bo's gaze, and in a flash, she appeared in front of Gu Bo.

She bowed slightly, her posture respectful,

"Esdeath," I'll leave the follow-up matters here to you."

Gu Bo glanced at the ruins below that were still emitting smoke.

"Take stock of the gains, eliminate the remaining enemies, and ensure that this area is completely under the control of the Diablo family."

"in addition."

"Keep an eye out for any valuables left behind by the Naberius family, and compile a report."

"Oh, yes, there's one more thing."

Gu Bo paused, and a cold light flashed across his red eyes:

"Remember, only the wise can live."

"For those who stubbornly resist and refuse to surrender..."

"Kill without mercy."

As soon as these words were spoken, Ajeka Beelzebub, who was standing nearby, saw everything.

He watched as Gu Bo nonchalantly handed over such an important task to this strange female follower who had just been subdued and had a cold and powerful aura.

and.

He also issued a cruel order of "kill without mercy".

It is obvious that the young head of the Diablo family is indeed showing his unique style of doing things.

He possesses the strength of a transcendent, yet carries the cold determination of a superior.

Diablo—what a family of monsters.

Gu Bo's orders were concise and clear, without too many detailed instructions, and it was obvious that he trusted Esdeath's ability.

"Yes, Lord Guber!" Esdeath straightened her body and responded decisively without any hesitation.

Her voice was cold and clear, carrying the obedience and efficiency that are unique to soldiers.

As a former imperial general.

Dealing with such post-war affairs was a piece of cake for her.

Gu Bo nodded with satisfaction, having no doubt about Esdeath's professionalism.

So he said no more, just took a last look at the busy scene below, and then an idea came to his mind.

"Om-"

Space distorted slightly, and a teleportation magic circle lit up beneath him and Ajeka Beelzebub's feet.

next moment.

The two figures disappeared from the spot and returned to the Diablo family's castle.

And when Gu Bo left.

Esdeath's exquisite face immediately returned to its original cold and indifferent expression, and her ice-blue eyes scanned the battlefield below.

Then he began to give orders in an orderly manner.

"Kadileya."

Esdeath's voice sounded, cold and direct, without any emotion.

The figure of Kadireya Leviathan immediately appeared not far away.

She lowered her head with a respectful attitude, but her slightly trembling fingertips revealed her inner unrest.

"Lady Esdeath."

"Go to the core wreckage area of ​​the Sky Fortress."

Esdeath ordered, her tone leaving no room for doubt.

"Search carefully for any valuable information or items, especially clues about the Naberius family's secret experiments."

"Yes, Lady Esdeath." Cardileia responded immediately, not daring to hesitate for a moment, and turned to fly towards the area with the most serious damage and the most unstable structure.

Esdeath's gaze followed her back, and a barely perceptible coldness flashed in her icy blue eyes.

"Barr."

Esdeath spoke again.

"The old minister is here."

The old figure of Baal appeared in front of Esdeath.

He bowed and saluted with a respectful attitude.

Although Esdeath is a new follower.

But the command authority given to her by Gu Bo and the powerful aura she exuded made the old minister dare not neglect it in the slightest.

"Organize manpower, thoroughly clean up the battlefield, and count all available resources, including the reserves of the mithril veins."

Esdeath spoke steadily, "Also, set up a cordon and seal off this area. No unauthorized personnel are allowed to approach."

"As you command, Lady Esdeath."

Baal took the order and immediately began to mobilize the demon soldiers of the Diablo family and carry out the operation in an orderly manner.

"Kuroka, Shirone."

Esdeath looked at the cat demon sisters who arrived last.

"Esdeath, what can I do for you, meow~?"

Heige had a naturally charming smile on her face.

Bai Yin stood obediently behind her sister and greeted her quietly, "Lady Esdeath."

"Heige, use your perception to detect if there are any hidden enemies or traps around."

"Baiyin, you will assist Lord Baal and be responsible for clearing out the remaining enemies who are still resisting."

"Yes, Esdeath~"

Heige licked his lips and agreed.

"Yes." Baiyin also nodded.

As the order was given, the entire battlefield ruins became busy again.

The Diablo family's demon soldiers began to operate like sophisticated machines, searching, counting, and keeping watch...

Everything was proceeding in an orderly manner under Esdeath's command.

At this time, several soldiers escorted several members of the Naberius family who were covered in wounds and in a miserable state to Esdeath.

These were the few captives who had managed to survive the devastating blow just now.

"Lord Esdeath, these are the prisoners we've captured. What should we do with them?"

The leading soldier asked respectfully.

Esdeath's cold gaze swept over the shivering captives.

There was fear in their eyes.

"Lord Gu Bo said that only the wise can survive."
