Archdemon

Finally, after they rode for a few more magic hours, Huo Ling finally saw other scenes in Avernus besides the scorched land.

A wide river, a river with rolling blood waves, its width is hundreds of meters.

Huo Ling rode the nightmare warhorse and stopped, waiting for Sylvia to come. After she came up, he asked: "Is this the Styx?"

"I don't know." Sylvia took a silent look.

"Then what do you know!?" Huo Ling was a little angry, and his voice even became a little louder.

After hearing Huo Ling's voice, Sylvia seemed to come back to her senses. She said: "This may be the Styx, or it may be a branch of the Styx... After all, the continent of Avernus is so huge that almost everyone can see the Styx, so the Styx should have countless branches."

After hearing her explanation, Huo Ling also understood a little.

He rode the nightmare warhorse towards the Styx, wanting to see this magical river.

The situation in Purgatory is much more complicated than imagined. The magic here is more violent, and it is also more difficult to mobilize.

Sylvia, who was following behind, seemed to remember something and shouted to Huo Ling's back: "Don't disperse your mental power in Purgatory at will, especially when facing the Styx."

Huo Ling stopped, turned around and returned to Sylvia, and asked in confusion: "What is the reason?"

Sylvia thought for a while, and said: "The Styx is a huge river carrying countless souls. The souls will be eroded by the river water here, and the memory of the souls will be worn away... So, if your mental power penetrates into it, it may also affect you."

At this point, Huo Ling nodded thoughtfully, and then he did not rush to the Styx, but went with Sylvia.

It is also applicable to Avernus to run to the mountain and die.

Even though Huo Ling had already seen the Styx, it took a long time to really get close.

Finally, the two of them rode their mounts close to the Styx.

Blood-colored water flowed in the Styx, but when you got close, you couldn't smell the smell of blood, which made people wonder what it was.

The flow of the river was not fast, but there were many things floating in it, some of which were hideous limbs.

The shapes of these limbs were strange, some had scales and bone spurs, some looked like ordinary human corpses, and there were corpses of various creatures that Huo Ling had seen or heard of, or even never heard of.

From time to time, a vortex would appear on the river surface, and some new corpses would gush out from it.

These were special products of Purgatory. After the soul fell into Purgatory, it would obtain a soul body that was the same as the entity.

Some soul bodies were still wailing, and they stretched out their hands helplessly, trying to grab something, but in the Styx, all their movements seemed to make no sound.

Even though Huo Ling was only two or three meters away from the river surface, he couldn't hear the wailing of a soul body floating in front of him with the river water.

Suddenly, the river water not far away surged, as if there was a huge monster rolling underneath.

Huo Ling looked at this scene and quickly moved away from here. Although he didn't know what was going on, it was better to stay away.

"Boom!"

The huge waves in the Styx made a huge sound, and a large wave hit the shore, and the huge waves washed a lot of river water onto the shore.

When the river water slowly flowed back into the Styx, many soul bodies were left on the shore.

Of course, this wave of huge waves not only rushed up corpses, but also some things that could move.

Bad demons.

This lowest level of demons in purgatory appeared in Huo Ling's field of vision.

The appearance of the bad demons was extremely ugly. They looked like rotten meat balls with incomplete limbs and heads. Some of them were formed by the corpses of humanoid creatures.

There were also some that were formed by the corpses of creatures that were hard to tell, but without exception, they all looked very ugly.

The inferior demons have no wisdom, but they can obey the mental commands of other demons.

They will obey the commands of all demons higher than their level. The inferior demons are the laborers of the demons when they are working, toys when they are bored, and cannon fodder in battle.

It can be said that the prosperity of the demon society is inseparable from the contributions of the inferior demons, but no demon likes this piece of rotten meat.

Huo Ling couldn't help shaking his head when he saw these inferior demons. Most of these inferior demons are at the apprentice level, and they are not even at the black iron level.

However, thanks to the environment of the high demons in hell, all creatures here almost don't need to eat, even if they eatThings, not for the purpose of maintaining life, but just to satisfy the appetite.

Therefore, these inferior demons are really like perpetual motion machines in hell. As long as they are not killed, their lifespan is almost immortal, they do not need to eat, they work hard and do whatever they are asked to do, and they will not complain if they are killed.

This is even better than Huo Ling's undead warriors. After all, even the skeletons under Huo Ling's command cannot maintain consistent and continuous fighting or activities, and they need to stop for a while to rest to recover the loss of soul power.

After these inferior demons were hit by the huge waves of the Styx, they stood still for a while, and then began to move.

They walked among many soul shells, playing with these already bizarre soul shells to make them even more bizarre, more twisted and painful.

This is not the evil taste of the inferior demons, on the contrary, it is for the sake of these soul shells.

If there were no inferior demons, these bodies that were beaten to the shore would almost stay here forever, unless they were destroyed by a fireball falling from the sky one day, or kicked back into the Styx.

This is almost the most painful torture in the world for these souls. They are trapped in a small prison cell called a body and can do nothing.

And the corpses that have been transformed and played with by inferior demons or other demons will successfully become a new inferior demon one day in the future.

Although they have lost their minds, wisdom, and memories, their pain has also ended completely.

This is one way for inferior demons to appear. There is another way to make inferior demons, which is to start with soul worms. Under the nourishment of magic power, they will also evolve into inferior demons.

However, in purgatory, soul worms are a kind of food that tastes like human delicacies to demons.

So in fact, even though inferior demons can evolve from soul worms, very few soul worms in Purgatory can successfully survive to the time of evolution. Ninety-nine percent of soul worms will eventually end up in the stomach of a devil.
