Archdemon

After Huo Ling flew away, he no longer cared about the episode of meeting an acquaintance.

This time, after returning to Purgatory and listening to the stories of the great devils such as Sally, Huo Ling took away his earl's scepter.

The moment he got the scepter, he completely understood what happened in Avernus, the first layer of Purgatory.

The Lord of Avernus, Zariel, stepped down and disappeared.

And his original demon general Bayer successfully occupied the bronze fortress of Avernus.

He became the temporary Lord of Purgatory of Avernus.

Huo Ling recalled the huge camp of thousands of miles of camps in the Wanyuan Plain of the Abyss.

He thought of the strange-looking demon general, Bayer.

At that time, Huo Ling felt that this demon general might stab him in the back, so after Zariel promoted Sally and the other three, Huo Ling ran away quickly.

Before they could even run out, they encountered a counterattack by the demons. It was also at this time that Huo Ling left the Abyss Plains from the demiplanes.

This door is still in the Abyss Plains, and Huo Ling has never dared to take it back.

How Bayer backstabbed Zariel was unknown to Huo Ling, and no one would reveal this news.

Even if it was really Bayer who backstabbed Zariel, then as the winner, Bayer would definitely not announce how he used conspiracy to successfully backstab Zariel.

Then correspondingly, in Purgatory, no one would feel pity or pity for the loser Zariel and announce how Bayer backstabbed her.

All this is just a political game in Purgatory.

In recent years, Avernus has changed three great lords in succession.

The last great lord was Tiamat, the mother of the evil dragon. This dragon god with only weak divine power attribute, once served as the great lord of Avernus for a period of time.

But later, his position as the Grand Lord was deposed by Asmodeus, the Lord of the Nine Hells, and he only retained the title of Duke.

Tiamat was deposed from the position of Grand Lord not because of her weak strength.

Although Tiamat's divine power was only weak and insignificant, as a dragon god, his body was the strongest, a powerful existence at the level of the legendary sun.

Even without the blessing of the territory of Avernus, the first layer of Purgatory, he could easily crush Zariel.

He was deposed from the position of Grand Lord because of his poor work, because this dragon mother, during her reign over Avernus, did not care about the work of Purgatory at all.

He only wanted to kill the platinum dragon god Bahamut, and he had been working hard for this goal.

The descendants of the five-colored evil dragons were created by this dragon queen when he was the Grand Lord of Purgatory.

Therefore, it is not a pity at all that Tiamat was deposed from the position of the Grand Lord of Purgatory.

Because He really doesn't work in this position.

And now Huo Ling got the news from the scepter that after Zariel disappeared, Bayer took over the position of the Grand Lord temporarily.

The reason for Zariel's resignation was also poor work.

It doesn't matter how Zariel really stepped down, because the current interim Grand Lord is Bayer.

After Bayer came to power, it was a big change for the entire political structure of Avernus.

In Avernus, there are many Dukes of Purgatory, and these Dukes of Purgatory are all strong competitors for the Grand Lord.

Now, I don't know how many Dukes of Purgatory will be dissatisfied with Bayer, the new interim Grand Lord.

However, Bayer occupied the Bronze Fortress and had absolute power in name. If he issued an order, other great devils would have to obey it.

Devils are creatures of order and evil. The higher the level of the devil, the more political creatures they are.

Under the system of Purgatory, unless you have decided to backstab the leader like Bayer, all official documents and orders must be followed.

The first order Bayer gave after taking office was to shrink the defense line and gather more demonic forces into the Bronze Fortress.

Bayer wanted to wait for the enemy to tire themselves out in the Bronze Fortress and fight the demons here.

Previously, when Zariel led his army into the Wanyuan Plain, he lost a huge amount of military power. Now Bayer returned to defend the Bronze Fortress and continuously mobilized troops from various Purgatory territories for support.

Only then did he defend the Bronze Fortress. In the past few years, the Bronze Fortress has been spent in fierce battles every day.

The blood flowed into the sea, and the corpses of both sides could probably fill several planes.

However, with the super defense of the Bronze Fortress and the chaotic performance of the demons, Bayer still firmly blocked all the demons outside the Bronze Fortress.

The demons that rushed out from various abyssal worlds started a melee before they arrived at the Bronze Fortress, and most of the demons did not seeWhen he reached the Bronze Fortress, he had already died on the way.

In order to mobilize the power of the entire Avernus, Bayer closed the Purgatory New Land.

He closed the Purgatory loophole that Zariel had opened. From then on, the attack of the Abyss could only enter from the Bronze Fortress.

After reading this news, Huo Ling could only sigh.

His good days in Purgatory can almost be said to be gone. Without the Purgatory New Land, even if Huo Ling expands madly now, the territory he can eventually occupy is limited.

And according to Bayer's character, he will definitely recruit all the devil nobles in the entire Avernus in the future, and even ask them to lead troops into the Bronze Fortress to participate in the war.

Huo Ling recalled the communication with Bayer.

He came up with the following guesses.

First: Bayer advocates defending the Bronze Fortress, gathering all the power in the Bronze Fortress, and consuming the demons here.

This is a good idea, because the overall strength of Purgatory is weaker than that of the Abyss.

Moreover, in the bloody battle between Purgatory and Abyss, the one who contributed the most was Avernus in the first layer. The other eight layers only sent a demon general and his troops.

It is a good idea to rely on the Bronze Fortress to consume demons, but the blood production speed of demons is much faster than that of devils.

But similarly, demons with faster blood production will not only fight demons, but also attack each other.

Bayer defended the Bronze Fortress, reduced the damage of the demons, and allowed Avernus to recuperate.

Without the active provocation of the demons, except for some abyss worlds that will actively attack the Bronze Fortress, other demons may become a mess in the abyss.

This period of time is a good time for Bayer and Avernus to develop, cultivate more demons, and more demon armies.

Until one day, the Bronze Fortress and the demon army in the rear will accumulate enough numbers. At that time, under the leadership of Bayer, they will completely break through the Wanyuan Plain and end the bloody battle between the two sides.
