Archdemon

Huo Ling followed the attendant devil and passed through layers of guards.

Finally, they arrived at the core of the fortress.

Rather than a palace, this place is more like a well-defended stronghold fortification.

Bayer, the great lord, is really too cautious.

Huo Ling's footsteps echoed in the palace, without any scruples.

He looked at the guards in the palace, each of whom was also a hellish devil.

The quality of the guards was a little higher than that of Huo Ling's commander's mansion.

But think about it, Huo Ling only occupies a little more territory, and Bayer is a great lord. If the power of the commander's mansion exceeds that of the great lord's mansion, that would be a big problem.

The attendant devil in front stopped, and Huo Ling stopped with him.

There was no way.

Huo Ling was the most law-abiding devil in Purgatory, and ordinary devils could not compare to him.

Huo Ling bowed slowly and said to Bayer on the throne: "Greetings, Lord."

"Lord Huo Ling... We haven't seen each other for a while." Bayer said.

"It's been more than 60 years since I last came to see you." Huo Ling smiled.

The last time Huo Ling came to see Bayer, the relationship between the two sides was not bad. At that time, Huo Ling had just been stationed in the Bronze Fortress for 50 years.

Bayer's calm voice sounded: "At that time, you were still a very loyal devil, but now..."

Bayer did not continue to speak, but both sides knew what Bayer wanted to say.

But Huo Ling still pretended not to understand. He bowed slightly and said, "My Lord, am I not always loyal to you?"

"Your loyalty!?"

"You occupied the Sixth War Zone and refused to give up the command position. Is this your loyalty?"

"You extended your hand to several other war zones and firmly controlled the power. Is this your loyalty?"

"You oppressed other dukes and dared not come to the fortress to see me for sixty years. Is this your loyalty?!"

"Hahaha!"

Saying this, Bayer himself couldn't help but sneer.

Seeing Bayer laughing, Huo Ling also laughed. He slowly stood up and said, "My Lord, how can this not be considered loyalty?"

"I blocked the demon army for you in the Bronze Fortress and sent you the spoils I won."

"Even if you have stopped sending reinforcements to my war zone, I am still holding the line and spending my own money to subsidize other demons so that they can get the rewards they deserve for their contributions."

"Isn't this my loyalty to you!?"

Bayer gritted his teeth and swallowed back the words he was about to curse.

Huo Ling was right. Bayer had stopped sending reinforcements to the war zones that Huo Ling controlled.

Huo Ling could only recruit soldiers on the spot or promote inferior demons to military forces, and rely on a large number of undead soldiers to guard the defense line.

For those upper demons who were promoted for merit, these were upper demons with military merits who opened up a way to come to Bayer for promotion.

Even though Bayer knew that these high-ranking demons would be loyal servants of Huo Ling after being promoted, he had to abide by the rules and promoted them to great demons with gritted teeth.

However, Bayer's restrictions were still very useful, at least reducing the number of great demons that Huo Ling could increase every year.

"Huo Ling! What do you want?" Bayer suppressed his anger and asked Huo Ling.

Huo Ling said, "I just want to guard the bronze fortress and win the bloody battle."

"..."

Bayer was a little tired, and he thought of the past.

In the Wanyuan Plain, in his own military camp.

Zariel was the same. He sat on the throne and asked, "Bayer... What do you want to do?"

Bayer said respectfully in the military tent, "I just want to win the bloody battle with the demons."

Everything that had happened before seemed like a bubble in front of Bayer.

Bayer stood up slowly and said, "Huoling, I just want to win the bloody battle."

"Even if you want to ascend my throne, can you wait until I win the bloody battle?"

"What are you talking about, my lord? I just want to be loyal to you and win the bloody battle under your command."

"Please don't say anything that is not conducive to unity, my lord." Huo Ling said seriously.

Bayer looked at his former favorite general and the disaster he had personally brought upon himself, and gradually calmed down.

He said, "I want you to take your subordinates away from the bronze fortress."

Huo Ling raised his head and looked at Bayer, saying, "My lord, I can leave at any time, but who can take my place?"

"Who dares to take my place?"

The two devils at the top of the pyramid of the ruling class, Avernus, looked at each other here, and it seemed as if lightning was bursting in the hall.

Bayer suppressed his anger and calmed down.Quietly asked: "Duke Huo Ling, be honest, what do you want to withdraw from the Bronze Fortress?"

Huo Ling occupied several battle zones of the Bronze Fortress and eroded the power, which was a huge threat to Bayer.

How can others sleep soundly in the bed? This principle is also applicable in Purgatory.

Huo Ling stayed in the Bronze Fortress, and Bayer had to be on guard against Huo Ling, a subordinate, all day long. Huo Ling might stab him in the back at any time.

But it was different to drive Huo Ling out of the Bronze Fortress. At least he was safe inside the Bronze Fortress.

Huo Ling sighed and said: "My Lord, why do you have to drive the servant out?"

"Do you want the territory or the resources?" Bayer asked calmly.

Huo Ling shook his head and said, "My Lord, I don't need the territory or resources."

"I just want to serve in the bloody battle. It's better to stay in the Bronze Fortress than to give me these resources."

Huo Ling looked at Bayer's expression and said slowly, "My Lord, since you don't want me to fight the demons in the Bronze Fortress, let me be the Dark Demon General. I will lead the army to fight the demons."

"What do you think?"

"Bold!"

"Ridiculous!"

"You are looking for death!"

Bayer was furious. He roared angrily and even stood up from the throne, exuding a powerful aura.

The aura of a Sun-level warrior is extremely powerful.

Even though Huo Ling has reached the 19th level of Legend, he still feels that his breathing is a bit suppressed and heavy.

In the hall, Bayer's devil guards drew their weapons one by one, staring at Huo Ling.

Huo Ling said nonchalantly: "My Lord, are you going to break the rules and kill me?"

Bayer looked at Huo Ling. He knew Huo Ling's strength. Even if the war really started, it would not be possible to take Huo Ling down in a short time, even if this was Bayer's home court.

Bayer suppressed his anger and said in a low voice: "Change the condition, this condition is not suitable!!"

Huo Ling bowed and saluted: "My Lord, this is my only condition."

"The front line is about to start a war. If you can't make up your mind, I will return to the war zone first and prepare to fight the devil."

Huo Ling looked at Bayer with a sharp look and said: "My Lord, please believe in my loyalty. I really just want to win the bloody battle!!!"
