After ensuring that Sika had sent her explanation of the arrangement to Saleen, Nailisi then said, “Sister Sika, I will have to bring along the twelve Notes of Purgatory. What about your safety?”
That was when Sika slapped her forehead. What was she thinking? Nailisi would not be able to bring demons into the teleportation portal without that equipment.
The space within the twelve Notes of Purgatory was not big, so only demons could be brought along. Human soldiers would not be able to resist the darkness of the purgatory. If they were to be sent in, they would turn into idiots after coming out.
Only those with similar grades and abilities as herself would be able to stay in there for long periods of time and even then, one would not feel too comfortable.
When Nailisi saw how the realization finally dawned on Sika, she did not know whether to laugh or cry and said, “Sister Sika, you have to heed what Master said and ask Truman to bring the magic cannon here. If a grade-9 opponent attacks you, hide yourself in a narrow passageway. Let Jola engage the enemy so that you have enough time to blast them all to death.”
“What about Jola?”
“In any case, that is one way to save yourself. You must remember it.” With that, Nailisi’s tears had already dried up. She happily left the third story of the temple by flying out of the window and towards demon city.
Sika lowered her head and caressed her slightly bulging stomach. She thought to herself, “For the sake of my children, can I really do that?”
The construction of demon city was complete, but summoning demons still proved to be a difficult task. Currently, there were only four magic beast swordsmen leading more than twenty-thousand demons and ten-thousand demonic spirits in the gigantic city.
This was far from what Nailisi had planned, but she did not have enough time to care about demon city at that time and she dared not summon demons that were too strong. It was already not easy for the four magic beast swordsmen to be controlling so many demons.
Demon city looked completely different from how it once was. The foundation of the city was white while the city walls were black. It was a strange look, as if the sky had been flipped upside down.
Nailisi transformed into her devil form. She was more than twenty yards tall, with four arms and a huge pair of wings that were flapping while descending down into the center of demon city.
When the demons on patrol saw Nailisi’s arrival, all of them quickly bowed on the ground as a display of submission. Nailisi possessed the actual aura of a devil, even supreme demons would be terrified. These demons were not as powerful as Nailisi, so they had no way of telling whether she was a real devil or not.
The four magic beast swordsmen were leading their demon armies in training when they heard about Nailisi’s arrival. Vinz and Singiles quickly rushed over to welcome her. Nailisi looked terrifying as a devil. There was no doubt that a body that was more than twenty yards tall like hers could easily crush ordinary humans into mincemeat with one gigantic step. The horns on her head were more than a yard long and were shining with black light.
Nailisi was pleased when she saw the magic beast swordsmen at her feet. This form would be very useful on the battlefield.
It was too bad that the fifth ability was still unstable. She had used up too much time trying to separate those two strange things in the soul flame. If Nailisi had known that the winged skeleton had also received a broken piece of jade from the spirit king’s soul flame, she would be overjoyed. The power harnessed in the objects were so incredible that even Nailisi would hesitate to devour them.
If all the broken pieces were gathered together, they would be worth much more than the golden zombie.
“Vinz and Singiles, Master has commanded me to battle. Give me ten-thousand demons. Also, give me all the magic bugs that you have reared.” Nailisi’s voice could be heard around the entire plaza. All the demons were shaken.
The magic beast swordsmen were not too fearful of Nailisi’s devil form because they had interacted with her before and knew what she usually looked like. Nailisi had to transform into a devil whenever she was in demon city because she wanted to establish her authority amongst the demon armies.
“My Lord, we shall carry out your orders now.” Vinz and Singiles did not mind the ten-thousand demons being taken away from them. Saleen had put the four of them in charge of demon city and they were only just getting used to it. It was not easy managing so many demons and their language was also difficult to pick up. They only managed to get by after their memories had been boosted with spells from mages.
Nailisi decided that she might as well take a seat on the parade platform in the plaza while waiting for the magic beast swordsmen to gather the demon soldiers.
It was common for expeditions to last for months or years in the demon dimension, so this was nothing to demons. Demons rarely led a long life so they were already used to killing and being killed.
Surrounding Nailisi were demons that were kneeling to her as a sign of respect and she was pleased. It was an incredible feeling. Although it felt good to follow Master, it was still less than ideal if she did not have any subordinates to order around.
As a demon, one must strive to become the most powerful so that the other demons would submit, follow, and respect.
When these thoughts crossed Nailisi’s mind, she smiled. When the demons saw her smiling, they began to praise the greatness of their Excellency, the devil.
Nailisi did not feel uncomfortable at all. She was indeed a great Luoluokaluo. Devils counted for nothing. By the time she gathered all her abilities, even tens of devils would be nothing to her.
Demon city was empty and vacant, so the voices of the demons’ praises traveled far and wide. Even the demonic spirits that were far away all began to kneel down in honor of Nailisi, the great devil.
Nailisi looked far away and thought to herself, “If only this entire city was filled with demonic spirits, demons and supreme demons to praise me. What a sight that will be!”
If the demons were to invade the Myers Mainland and she were to become the King of demons, that would be perfect!
If Master…
No, Master would never become her subject. In that case, Master would become a King of demons as well. They would kill off all humans so that there would no longer be any more conflict. Let the Myers Mainland become the paradise of demons!
By then, only Master, Sika, Lex and herself would be left behind to live happily ever after. If that skeleton was willing to submit, she would give that spirit of the dead the position of a general. Nailisi was in such a good mood imagining all that that she even forgot about wanting to kill the winged skeleton.
Very soon, Vinz and the rest had already gathered ten-thousand demons and brought them to Nailisi. These demons were clad in armor that was much better those that they wore back in the demon dimension.
Nailisi lowered her head slightly and looked down at the demon army before saying, “I, the great King of Demons, Nailisi, will now bring all of you to kill a disciple of God. Do you dare to do it?”
All the demons heard Nailisi’s voice loud and clear. This demon army was close to completing their training and had been organized into a battalion according to the standard of human armies. The stronger demons amongst them had been made commanders. This was slightly different from humans. Demons were not well-versed in the arts of war, so they were simply arranged so that the stronger demons would lead the weaker ones into battle.
“We will kill them all!” The demon commanders in the front row shouted back in response to what Nailisi said.
“We will kill them all!” The tens and thousands of demons repeated.
“Kill the Gods!” The commander of the army, a demon who possessed abilities close to that of a supreme demon, did not mince his words. Of course, devils were the greatest and the other Gods were trash in his heart. All the demons remembered how the Gods used to be defeated by humans.
Those humans became weak and fragile the moment they started to believe in Gods. This was evidence of how despicable Gods could be.
“Eat the Gods!” The demons at the back did not clearly hear what the demon general said and gave an even louder response.
Nailisi was satisfied. These demons were all four to five yards tall and they wielded weapons such as giant axes and long swords that were more than four yards long. They had the upper hand if they were to battle against ordinary humans. The demons were not too intelligent though. Killing Gods? That was something that had never crossed Nailisi’s mind.
“Remember what you have said today. I will give you all a great honor!” Nailisi took out the twelve Notes of Purgatory and a huge black door appeared in front of her.
There was no light within the door. Nailisi ordered them in coldly, “Go, I will bring all of you on an expedition!”
The demons in demon city had all been cleansed by the demonic magic array, so there was a ceiling to the level of their intelligence. The demon city was constructed in the same way as how devils would construct them in the demon dimension. The demons in demon cities mostly existed to be cannon fodder, yet all of them maintained their excitement and enthusiasm about living.
The demon general led the way and walked through the door while the other leaders followed suit with their own armies.
Although the twelve Notes of Purgatory was capable of carrying lives, it was not a spatial equipment that was designed to store items. The demons would need to enter one by one and since there were ten-thousand demons in total, the amount of time they needed was significant.
Singiles was riding on his magic beast that was more than four yards tall and approached Nailisi while holding a box in his hands. This box was the size of half a yard and was covered with red magic patterns. Singiles was careful with the box as there were thousands of magic bug eggs inside. They would reproduce rapidly the moment there was blood.
Red flame magic bugs were not simply just demon food. They were also grade-3 creatures.
Nailisi took the box and opened it with her fingernails to take a look. Thousands of magic bug eggs were piled inside and each egg was covered with red magic patterns, similar to those on the box except that the ones on the eggs were slightly dimmer.
These eggs would not hatch, unless they were ordered to because, they were being suppressed by the devil aura. Nailisi saw no problem with the eggs, so she closed the box and put it in her bracelet.
Nailisi pondered for a moment before lowering her head and asking Singiles, “You still have yet to discover any demons that are suitable for learning magic?”
Singiles shook his head. He did not understand magic, but he could tell that the demons summoned through the demon city were all not too intelligent. It would be a miracle if demons of such levels of intelligence were capable of learning magic.
Nailisi was aware of where the problem lied. It seemed that only the future generations of these demons that had been summoned would be loyal and would possess a decent level of intelligence. The power of the demon city had destroyed whatever intelligence the demons had.
At that thought, Nailisi suddenly felt that the praises those demons sang of her just now were meaningless.
When would she ever be able to lead a demon army that was powerful and smart?
