Lord of Scourge: Begin as a Demon Archduke

lost heavily.

After being silent for a long time, Lauren said slowly.

"Tomorrow, a public burial will be held for these soldiers who died in battle. The heroes of Huiyue City should never be forgotten!"

"Yes, my lord."

Ariel lowered her head with reddened eyes, took a few deep breaths, and then continued.

"In addition to casualties, other losses are also very heavy.

The city walls were destroyed by the lizardmen's burrowers, and we need to rebuild the walls before the next bloody day.

This requires a huge amount of resources and a lot of labor, and if there is no new manpower to join, we will not be able to complete the construction of the city wall this month..."

"The already scarce military supplies have been completely exhausted this time. We lack the ability to produce independently and must purchase from outside..."

"And..." Ariel hesitated for a moment, and finally gritted her teeth.

"After defeating the lizardmen, you seem to have gained a pair of wings. This has a great impact on the residents. Do we need to explain something..."

Because of the extremely high loyalty of the soldiers in Glorious Moon City and Roren's promise to establish a department dedicated to serving the fallen soldiers, no one was afraid of him showing his demon form.

But ordinary residents are different. The evil scene of Lauren spreading his demon wings, floating in mid-air and devouring blood energy still remains in the minds of the residents looking at the sky from a distance.

Although she didn't say it explicitly, Ariel could clearly feel the change in the atmosphere among the residents.

Although her heart was not shaken at all, she firmly believed that even if the boy in front of her was a legendary demon, she would never do anything to hurt them.

But this matter needs to be reassured...

Lauren narrowed his eyes slightly.

"There is no need to be nervous. The public funeral will be held tomorrow. I will personally resolve this matter."

As more and more demons he transforms, the residents of Glorious Moon City will definitely know the news.

This cannot be concealed, and he has no interest in concealing it.

With the increase in strength, some inner thoughts have quietly changed.

In Huiyue City, which is far away from outside interference, he is the only ruler in this land.

The fate of all is in his hands.

His word is the truth.

The devil can't tolerate people in the outside world, but in this city... the truth is up to him.

[111.Chapter 104 The devil is our guardian]

The next morning.

The sky is as blue and clear as the sea, without any clouds.

After the great battle last night, the city of Huiyue is still in a dignified atmosphere.

Many residents got up early and stopped to stare at the ruined city wall.

Seeing the tragic scene with bloodstains and war scenes everywhere in front of them, everyone was terrified.

If Huiyue City lost the battle last night, the consequences would be countless times more serious than this time.

None of them may survive.

A pious aunt put her hands together on her chest, praying in a low voice.

"Goddess, I hope that your halo will always protect the city of Huiyue..."

A middle-aged man in his early forties saw a forgotten shriveled arm not far away, with fear in his eyes, looked around a few times, and lowered his voice.

"Did you see it last night? A pair of wings that only demons have grown from behind the lord..."

The young man next to him frowned.

"So what? Do you think the lord is a demon?"

"No, the lord is definitely not a demon..." The middle-aged man shook his head resolutely, looked at the young man whose face softened a little, and continued.

"But, have you ever thought about what if the lord is tempted by the devil?

When you were in Decker City, didn't you hear the troubadour tell the legends of the past?No one knows how many mighty empire kings have been seduced by demons.Fallen into a tyrant.

Although the lord is very powerful, can he still be compared to the king who rules most of the main plane? "

The young man was startled, and after thinking for a moment, he slowly shook his head.

"Legends are legends after all, this is the City of Bright Moon, the home we want to protect.

Even if Lord Lord degenerates into a demon, I firmly believe that he must be different from the legendary demon. "

The middle-aged man hesitated when he heard these firm words.

Finally, he took a deep look at the red armband on the young man's shoulder, and stopped speaking, but the fear and worry in his heart remained.

This scene is just a microcosm among the residents.

When Roren spread his demon wings in mid-air, the residents quickly split into two camps.

One is that the benevolent and benevolent great lord is likely to be seduced by the devil, just like the legend.

Maybe they will be ruled brutally next, and some people even think about fleeing the city.

The other camp expressed their firm belief and support for Lauren. They did not believe that the great Lord Lauren could be tempted by demons.

Even if he is tempted by the devil, Lord Laurent will definitely not become a tyrant like in the legend, and they will never leave this city full of future and hope.

But no matter what they think in their hearts, there is a doubt in their hearts.

Was Lord Laurent really tempted by a demon?

If not, what are those demon wings?

With different thoughts in their hearts, the residents learned a very important news.

The lord will hold a public funeral for the soldiers who died in battle, and will issue several particularly important decrees.

Hearing this news, the residents who had fear in their hearts became even more uneasy.

Is it really as they thought?

The sun rises and floats above the clear sky.

But such good weather failed to dispel the shadows in the hearts of the residents.

With different thoughts, the crowd was led by the soldiers to the gate of the city lord's manor.

Wait quietly.

ten in the morning.

Under the gaze of the crowd, a group of figures slowly appeared in the manor.

The leader, Lauren, was wearing a black robe with a white flower on his chest, and his handsome face was dignified and serious.

Behind him are soldiers with tired faces, but what is different from the past is that the angry bear cavalry leads the giant bear, the wolf spear thrower is accompanied by the giant wolf, and everyone walks...

No one is privileged at this moment.

The moment they saw Lauren's figure, many residents trembled and lowered their heads subconsciously...

The atmosphere was countless times lower than before.

Lauren noticed the strangeness in the eyes of the residents. His deep eyes scanned the crowd, and he walked outside without saying anything.

After the army behind them completely left the manor, the residents slowly followed.

Luo Lun led the crowd, stepped on the grass, and headed towards the back of the city of Huiyue.

There are large tracts of land that have not had time to be reclaimed.

Ten minutes later, Lauren stopped in front of a valley.

This valley is located in the depths of Huiyue City, with a length of one kilometer and a width of one kilometer. The verdant grass is lush and full of vitality.

And it is protected by towering peaks on three sides, very quiet.

At this time, more than a dozen soldiers were on guard at the gate of the valley.

What is even more eye-catching is that through the [-]-meter-wide entrance, you can see hundreds of sacrificed soldiers laying on the ground with white cloths in the valley.

The graves next to it have been dug one after another.

This is a valley that belongs to heroes.

After taking a deep breath, Lauren led the crowd into the valley.

After the soldiers came to the front of the hero covered in white cloth, they stopped slowly.

He was the only one walking alone.

Shasha~

Leather boots made a slight sound of footsteps on the grass.

The breeze blows the white cloth, and the scars of the sacrificed soldiers can be seen from time to time...

My heart is heavy, every step I take is like stepping on my heart.

This made Lauren very uncomfortable.

No matter which world, soldiers who guard the land and people are always worthy of respect.

The soldiers never died, and their blood will become the cornerstone of Huiyue City, glorious and great.

Coming to the most central area, a raised natural boulder happens to be the podium.

Lauren took a few deep breaths, calmed down, and stepped forward.

The crowd instantly focused their attention on the boy's face.

Eyes contain fear, fear, but also admiration, trust and worship.

Lauren's dark eyes looked at pieces of long white cloth. After pondering for a long time, he looked directly at the eyes of the residents below.

He spoke slowly.

"People of Huiyue City, today is a great day, a glorious day that can be recorded in the history of Huiyue City."

"Because we defeated the powerful Lizardman who can roam the endless wasteland!"

"Victory belongs to you, and glory belongs to you who are meaningless."

When the crowd below heard this, they were inexplicably relieved.

Their lord seems to have not changed, and it is still the great existence that makes them respect and worship.

The soldiers were emotionally excited, no matter what the price they paid, they were the winners of this war after all.

After a few seconds of pause, Lauren's voice sank.

"However, victory comes at a price,"

"Our fighters gave their all and died in the battle to guard the city of Huiyue."

"They deserve every level of praise and reward.

I am proud and proud of them!

All residents present should be proud that we have such fearless fighters. "

After finishing speaking, he bowed slowly to the soldiers below.

"In the name of the city lord of Huiyue City, I thank you for your dedication."

This action directly caused the pot below to explode.

Lord Laurent... unexpectedly, actually bowed to them? ! !

What is Lauren?The city lord of Huiyue City, the descendant of the Bauhinia family, and the master of all of them, can decide their fate with one word!

During this month, everyone can see that as long as the future city of Huiyue is not captured, it must have an infinite future, and all of this is brought about by this young man.

But now, such a dignified figure bowed to them! !

The soldiers who were born as slaves suffered a very strong psychological impact.
