Please be my partner.

As Mellen entered, he immediately felt himself being locked by several legendary auras. A hoarse voice with a hint of malice rang out: "Boy, this is not the place for you!"

Mellen's face was calm. He slowly reached into his arms and took out a white token with colorful stars flashing on it. The front of the token was written with the words "Baisha" and the back was a somewhat strange symbol.

He said, "I'm here to do business."

Feeling the token in his hand trembling, Melen let go and the token flew into the dark shadows. After a moment, it was thrown out again. Then a figure wearing a gray cloak that completely covered his body walked out.

The gray-cloaked man's voice was still hoarse, but without the previous malice. He said, "So you are a distinguished guest of the Baisha Chamber of Commerce. I wonder what business you would like to discuss?"

Melen chuckled and said, "I'm looking for your Gray Shadow Troupe to buy intelligence."

Because a small world like the Abyss World has been in contact with the heavens for a long time, naturally there are various chambers of commerce and forces coming here, and the Baisha Chamber of Commerce certainly has a base here.

The token in Mellen's hand was given to him by the Collector when he left the Blue and Green Realm. It allows him to enjoy VIP treatment in the Baisha Chamber of Commerce and other forces that are friendly with the Baisha Chamber of Commerce.

Originally, Mellen's idea was to find the Baisha Chamber of Commerce in the Abyss World and buy information about the demon lords from them. However, when he arrived at their door, the person in charge told him that because there were cooperative forces in the Abyss World that were friendly with the Baisha Chamber of Commerce and conducted such transactions, they did not conduct business in this area.

Not conflicting with the business of cooperative forces is also one of the principles of the Baisha Chamber of Commerce.

Of course, the non-conflict here also depends on the type of business. If it is the main business of Baisha Chamber of Commerce, then the other party will not be its cooperative force, but a business rival.

Afterwards, the person in charge introduced the Gray Shadow Brigade to Melen.

Compared to the Baisha Chamber of Commerce, the Gray Shadow Brigade can only be regarded as a small group with about two or three saints in it. Its main business is intelligence, hiring, assassination, etc. It has a record of successfully assassinating saints, which is why it has gained a certain reputation.

After hearing Mellen's request for information, the man in the gray cloak quoted a price that did not surprise him.

Given Mellen's current wealth and what he was planning, he didn't care about the initial investment, so he made the payment readily.

Seeing Mellen being so straightforward, the man in the gray cloak became more enthusiastic and quickly sorted out the information Mellen wanted.

After receiving the information crystal containing the intelligence, Melen didn't rush to leave. Instead, he asked, "Your Gray Shadow Brigade should also undertake other business, right? For example, accepting my hiring to help me do something, or assassinating a demon lord."

The gray-cloaked figure raised his head slightly, revealing a smooth chin similar to that of a human. The corners of his mouth curled up slightly, and he said with confidence in his tone, "Of course, distinguished guest, this is exactly the job of our Gray Shadow Brigade!"

Chapter 310 Plan, start!

Sk City is a city developed by the six-armed snake demon clan from its original small tribe. Even though the six-armed snake demon clan has occupied a large area now, this city still holds an important position in the mind of the six-armed snake demon, and most of the key buildings are located here.

Two six-armed snake demons were walking and talking, but suddenly they were startled, and then they immediately stepped aside, looking at a six-armed snake demon with murderous aura all around him swimming past them with respect.

"Isn't this Lady Barbara? Wasn't she fighting against a tribe of shadow demons and nightmares? How come she's back so soon?"

"You don't know? It's said that the original plan was to demonstrate strength and then subdue the demon tribe, but something went wrong during the process and those guys angered Lady Barbara, so Lady Barbara directly demonstrated force and slaughtered the entire tribe, so naturally it was a bit faster."

"Tsk tsk, for those ungrateful little tribes, we should show them the same thundering force as Lady Barbara did. Let's see who dares to disobey us in the future!"

"That's right, I heard that..."

Barbara looked calm, but she was very upset inside. Even though she had just slaughtered a tribe of demons, she couldn't release this upset.

At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded beside its ear: "Lady Barbara, are you here to check the intelligence?"

Barbara looked at the person asking the question with a somewhat dull expression. It turned out that she had unknowingly come to the data room where the six-armed snake demon clan stored their intelligence.

After being stunned for a moment, Barbara's eyes gradually focused and she made up her mind.

A few days later, Mellen arrived near the agreed location. He first carefully explored the surroundings to make sure there was no ambush, then approached the agreed location, dug up a piece of soil and rocks, and found an information crystal.

With a chuckle, Mellen randomly chose a direction and walked a distance, then his figure entered the fairy tale kingdom in a ripple of space.

Module laboratory.

Mellen directly threw out two information crystals, one of which was naturally just obtained from Barbara, and the other was bought from the Gray Shadow Brigade.

Xiaoyin appeared, releasing two silver lights like liquid. With just a light touch, he interpreted all the information in the two information crystals and sorted them into different categories.

Mellen said, "The Gray Shadow Brigade will be a great help. Count them in and formulate a plan that can delay the war for as long as possible."

For Xiao Honglian's upcoming [Source of Blood], the most difficult part is actually the initial stage. If Xiao Honglian is overrun by the surrounding demon lords and their armies just as she begins to move, then Melen will really be in trouble.

On the contrary, if the little red lotus can be allowed to develop steadily for a period of time and absorb enough nutrients, a virtuous circle can be formed, and the attacking demons will become nutrients for the growth of the little red lotus.

Among these, the most critical is the initial stage.

Therefore, how to delay the development of the little red lotus enough time in the initial stage becomes the top priority.

Being able to connect with the Gray Shadow Troupe will undoubtedly provide them with a lot more help.

In just a moment, Xiaoyin created dozens of feasible plans based on the existing information, each of which had its own advantages and disadvantages.

Mellen read through them carefully, his eyes lighting up when he saw one of them. However, he didn't rush into making a decision. Instead, he read through the rest of the plans and finally said, "Let's go with this one. The others are just backup plans. I'll go to these places in person in the next few days to confirm the specifics. You can then refine the details."

The small silver ball of light flickered in response, and at the same time began to adjust the laboratory's output of poison for specific demons, as well as the ratios for weapons manufacturing.

Melen continued to be busy outside, either transforming into various demons to enter the big city to confirm intelligence, or sneaking into some areas for field investigations.

At the same time, the entire fairy tale kingdom began to run wildly under Mellen's will.

Every week, Mellen would give the newly obtained intelligence to Xiaoyin. Some of this information was personally inquired and sorted out by him, some was directly purchased from the Gray Shadow Troupe, and some came from Barbara's six-armed snake demon clan.

Although the latter had some complaints about having to deliver intelligence once a week, they had no choice but to cooperate under the threat of the Abyss Contract.

Fortunately, except for the first time when there was too much information and it took some effort, it didn't take Barbara too much effort to update the information afterwards.

A month later, Melen confirmed the action plan, which had been revised to its Nth version, and suddenly asked, "The Gray Shadow Brigade has a lot of responsibilities. What if they suddenly turn against us?"

Xiaoyin said, "Don't worry, Master. I have already made detailed plans for supplementary measures in my backup plan. Even if the Gray Shadow Troupe suddenly turns against us, we will have timely remedial measures."

"Furthermore, as long as we don't let them know what our ultimate goal is, with the reputation the Gray Shadow Brigade has been building, and your status as a VIP guest of the White Sand Chamber of Commerce, they won't destroy the credibility they have worked so hard to build."

"Once the first phase of the plan is complete, even if they guess something, it won't matter."

Mellen nodded slightly and said, "In that case, let's get started!"

After receiving Mellen's order, dozens of teams, some openly and some secretly, began their respective actions.

On the outskirts of a muddy swamp, a looming figure in a gray cloak quietly appeared. He first carefully explored the surroundings and confirmed that there were no demons. Then he carefully took out a crystal bottle, opened the cork, poured the lavender liquid into the swamp, and finally threw the crystal bottle into the swamp.

In a demon town, a team leader returned to the demon camp after completing his patrol mission as usual. However, he did not go back to rest today. Instead, he walked around the demon camp freely, greeting familiar demons from time to time, or shouting a few words to them.

When it came to a corner not far from the center of the military camp, it took out a sealed metal box, opened it and quickly threw it on the ground. Some thumb-sized black insects crawled out of the metal box.

After doing all this, the team leader left the demon camp without delay and disappeared.

In a dark alley in a big city, a man in a gray cloak poured some unknown liquid into the mouth of a half-dead little devil, and then left quickly as if escaping.

In a demon tribe...

Beside a lake where ferocious beasts gather...

Near a volcano about to erupt...

……

……

The Manfeng Mountains are a piece of land covering an area of more than 10 million square kilometers. Due to the complex terrain and scarce resources, even though it intersects with the territories of four demon lords, those demon lords have no intention of occupying it.

It is for this reason that there are many demon tribes in the Manfeng Mountains. Some of them cannot bear being oppressed, some have offended stronger beings, and some have lived here originally, forming a relatively prosperous and stable ecology.

Deep in the Manfeng Mountains, the demon tribes here are even more barbaric, and even have a more primitive totem worship.

In a tribe called Fu, there stands a huge and strange demon statue. The demons in the tribe live normally according to custom.

Melen was sitting casually on the demon statue that the Fu tribe regarded as a faith. The demon below seemed not to notice his presence.

He stepped on the demon statue, but it didn't react. He muttered to himself, "Primitive faith? There's some accumulation, but it's far from the point of condensing into a true form. I guess it has something to do with the demon's beliefs being so chaotic and mixed."

"Ohhhh!~" Little Liuli's earnest voice echoed from the side.

Mellen touched the little fox with amusement and asked with a smile: "Can you understand what I said?"

Little Liuli: Ohhhh (I don’t understand, but the master is right!)!

Melen was speechless. In the past, Xiao Honglian was the one who played the supporting role, but the little fox seemed to be doing well too.

After advancing to Legend, Xiao Liuli's illusion ability has improved by leaps and bounds. Even though there are four or five legendary demons in this demon tribe, including one in the late legendary stage, they are unable to see through Xiao Liuli's illusion and allow them to stand on the demon statue and comment on her with impunity.

At this time, Xiaoyin appeared beside Mellen and said, "Master, the first phase of the plan has been completed, and we can start the second phase."

Mellen asked, "So soon?"

Xiaoyin said, "It went better than expected."

Mellen stood up and stretched, then said with a smile, "In that case, let's get started!"

After he finished speaking, Melen awakened the little red lotus in his body.

During this period, not only Mellen was busy preparing, but Xiao Honglian was also adjusting her condition through sleep.

As Melen called out, wisps of blood-red mist began to spread and became thicker and thicker.

Soon, the coverage of the blood-colored mist exceeded the range of Xiao Liuli's illusion and was noticed by the demons of the Fu tribe.

At first, the blood-colored mist appeared on the demon totem. Many demons thought that it was their own totem that appeared, and immediately knelt down devoutly. It was not until the arrival of the legendary demon that they realized something was wrong, and immediately launched an attack on the blood-colored mist in anger.

However, these attacks were naturally easily eliminated by the growing blood mist.

At a certain moment, the blood mist began to surge violently, almost instantly enveloping the entire Fu tribe, and it was still expanding outward.

In the blood mist, the shadow of a hideous and terrifying giant beast slowly emerged, emitting a long and vicious howl. The ferocious aura that penetrated the soul corroded all the demons present. Even the legendary demons felt enveloped in coldness, and their minds, consciousness, and souls were frozen.

Mellen looked at the real body of Little Red Lotus in the blood mist, but he was not scared. He just felt a little familiar and emotional.

Ever since Xiao Honglian was promoted to a legend, he has been transformed into the form of blood and integrated into Mellen's body. In addition to the dog's original purpose of wanting to get close to its master, one is to protect Mellen "nearby", and the other is to continuously improve Mellen's physique through the ability of blood manipulation.

Especially the second point, Melen was able to exert the power of soul synchronization three times just after he became a legend, and Xiao Honglian played an indispensable role in this.

In the following time, no matter it was a battle or other situations, even if Xiao Honglian needed to come out, he would leave at least half of his body in Mellen's body. This was the first time that he showed his true complete form to the outside world.

The ferocious beast slowly lowered its head and let out a low roar.

Melen raised his hand, and immediately wisps of blood mist wrapped around it. Perhaps to others, the roar of the ferocious beast was full of viciousness, but Melen could feel the attachment in it.

Melen said softly: "Go, I look forward to seeing you become stronger."

"Roar!~"

Mellen's words immediately filled Xiao Honglian with endless fighting spirit.

Countless blood flowers exploded in the blood mist, and all the demons of the Fu tribe, including those legendary demons, exploded. The blood on their bodies merged into the blood mist, adding a touch of weirdness to the blood mist.

Then, the ferocious beast's body trembled, as if it turned into some kind of sticky liquid, and suddenly crashed into the ground below, like a drop of water merging into the sea without causing any ripples.

Although the ferocious beast disappeared, the blood mist not only did not weaken, but instead tended to get more intense.

"Woo!~"

"Woooooo!~"

Cries were heard one after another, and ferocious beasts began to appear in the blood mist. They were shaped like dogs, with long and thin limbs, and their bodies were made up of flowing blood. The rising blood mist looked like balls of blood flames.

The strength of these bloody minions varies, but they can basically be matched one-to-one with the demons of the Fuzi tribe.

Led by several legendary blood minions, the dogs pounced towards the nearest demon tribe. As they moved, the blood mist began to spread and expand.

Soon, the blood mist first spread to the demon tribe closest to the Fu tribe. When this demon tribe was still carefully exploring the source of the blood mist, the blood-colored dogs directly launched an attack.

Under the influence of the blood mist, the blood in the demon's body will continue to flow, and when it flows to a certain level, it will explode directly.

On the other hand, the blood-colored minions have endless power when they are in the blood mist. Even if they are injured, they will recover quickly. Even after being shattered, it only takes a while for them to condense again.

In the blood mist, the bloody minions are immortal!

So the battle was not suspenseful from the very beginning, and when the desperate demon wanted to escape, it was already too late.

As the demon tribe was slaughtered, more bloody minions appeared. This time, the bloody minions did not stay together, but split into two groups and rushed towards different demon tribes.

The blood mist is spreading.

The devil is wailing.

The world is shaking.

Looking down from the sky, this strange blood-colored color looked like a greedy beast, constantly devouring everything it could see.

In the blood mist, the blood-red minions are like hardworking bees or the fangs of vicious beasts, tearing their prey into pieces. Then these original prey will become new blood-red minions, joining the ranks of their 'predecessors' and continuing to work hard.

The blood mist caused an instinctive uneasiness in the Abyss World as soon as it spread. However, what it could do in this initial stage was actually limited. It could only exert a subtle influence on some demons, increasing their attention to the blood mist and their hostility towards it.

But, there are actually traces of this.

It was at this time that Mellen's first phase of the plan gradually began to show its impact.
