Chapter 396 The Past of Yzaks
Hao Ren was dumbfounded by Yzaks' words. He could not have imagined that the strong man in front of him, who would stop crying at night wherever he went, would miss his daughter while drinking alone on the New Year's Eve night. Missing his daughter was not the main point. The point is that this eldest brother actually has a daughter!
"You have a daughter?" Hao Ren looked at Yzaks for a moment, trying to find if he had any signs of being drunk. "Is it true?"
"Why can't I have a daughter?" Yzaks grinned, "Do you think I shouldn't have a child?"
"No, I just don't think you have anything to do with the word 'daughter'," Hao Ren said bluntly and said what was on his mind smoothly, "Just like the impression you give people...even if you have children, you should give birth to them." A son with a shoulder width of eight feet and a height of two feet. He holds a gold mace in his hand and is two feet wide to protect his heart. Only this image can match you."
Yzaks glared at Hao Ren sideways: "According to what you mean, the mace must be carried with you as soon as you are born, right?"
Hao Ren nodded subconsciously, but soon realized that this was unreasonable: "Well, this is too challenging..."
"...You guys can usually talk to me like this. I really couldn't find a guy like you to be my buddy before." Yzaks was stunned for a while, then suddenly sighed, "You've made me digress. I'm not talking nonsense, I do have a daughter, and she is old enough to be your great-grandmother, but she is just a little girl in our place... She is so tall and runs around all day long."
Yzaks said, raising his hand to draw a height slightly higher than the table. Hao Ren felt on the spot that the elder brother was drunk and mistaken his current human form for the devil form. The height of the gesture only reaches Hao Ren's belly button. Can there be such a kind of devil?
But he didn't say anything, because he could see that Yzaks had been holding things in his stomach for half a year, and now he really wanted to find someone to talk to. This big devil with a mysterious past usually never talks about his past, so this opportunity today is very rare.
"I told you, I have a family and a business," Yzaks suddenly changed the topic and mentioned his past business, "In the demon class of our world, I am the 'king', and there are also people in charge. My level is called 'Demon King'."
"What level is this?" Hao Ren followed the topic and asked, "It sounds pretty advanced."
Yzaks smiled and seemed a little proud: "It is indeed very high-level. It can be said to be the highest-level demon. In our world, there are melees everywhere. Fighting between camps, fighting within the same camp, and demons fighting. It's especially serious. We will divide many territories. A powerful demon will gather thousands of lower-level demons, and the bosses who are not much different from other levels will fight around all day long. Without their own fixed base, whoever grabs which territory Just be the king of the mountain for a few days, and you will be beaten away by others soon. This level is called "Devil Commander", and there are also people called "Overseer". These demons are actually just small players, and their small team is only equivalent to bandits. Robbers can be killed by others at any time, and even they themselves can be killed by their own men at any time.
"And among these demon commanders, there are occasionally some more skillful guys. They have the ability to seize a relatively large territory as a fixed base. These guys occupy a place for a long time, and no one around them can shake their position. At the same time, they can also lead Build a stable team, this level is called a lord.
"Further up, there are those guys who are particularly capable of fighting and thinking. They rule many lords, have a territory equivalent to an entire country, and even have the ability to occupy an independent space. These guys can even build an independent space like humans. A complete and stable governance system, with a country, army, subjects and inheritance belonging to the devil, and whoever reaches this level is a king."
This was the first time Hao Ren heard these detailed things from Yizhaks. It seemed that the demon society in his hometown was different from other legends on earth, and it was also different from the "local demons" described by Vivian. Likewise, it seems that even the same race in each world will establish different civilization systems.
He was quite interested in this: "So you still have a country under your control?"
"There was one, and it was the most powerful in history, bigger than the largest empire ever established by mankind," Yzaks nodded, "but it was destroyed."
The big man sighed, and then continued: "You all think I'm weird, right? As a devil, all I can think about is peace among all races - I've investigated what the devils are in other worlds. In this way, demons in almost every world tend to be chaotic and cruel, and there are very few like me. I know that I am a freak, and everyone over there says so about me.
"But in fact, at the beginning, I was no different from other demons - just those demon leaders who were fighting around all day long, those demon lords who were content for a while, and then thought about invading the human world all day long. I used to talk to them Just the same, one of them.”
"Why did you change your ambition later?" Hao Ren looked at Yzaks curiously.
"Because a human being," Yzaks looked at the wine bottle in his hand, as if he wanted to see an old friend from the past in the reflection of the bottle, "is an alchemist, which is equivalent to your place in my hometown. scholars.
"That year, I just led my team to clear a territory and beat away other nearby demons. In our words, I turned from a demon commander to a lord. At that time, I was young and energetic, and as a newly promoted lord I urgently needed to prove my strength, and there was no established demon nearby that I could challenge, so I made a decision similar to that of other demons in that situation - I seduced some human wizards and opened a portal in the human world. and invaded a country.”
"Many demons did this at that time," Yzaks raised his eyebrows slightly. "The spatial structure of our world...is different from yours. Our universe is made up of a large number of messy but internally regular space 'capsules' Composed of independent spaces, large or small, connected through unstable channels. Each space may have a continent or several planets. This space structure makes my hometown crowded with various Various races and nations have also triggered various chaotic wars. Human kingdoms are numerous, widely distributed, and very powerful, so many demons will regard "invading and destroying a human kingdom" as a sign of strength. The best method, which proves that a demon has the wisdom to open a giant space door and the power to destroy the enemy on the other side of the door.
"The country I chose was mediocre and had nothing to say. I wasn't even interested in dealing with the civilians who could only scream and run away and the vulnerable human army. Now that I think about it, this seems to be a good thing. I led the troops directly. Rushing into their royal capital, the king and ministers had already escaped through the portal to other dimensions before the city was broken. I raised my flag on the castle and declared that this country had become a demon territory and all humans were reduced to slaves.
"Then I started to check my trophies and went to the treasure houses and wizard towers to search for human alchemy creations that were highly rated among various races.
"Finally I saw that strange guy, a thin, stooped little old human man. He was hiding in a dilapidated wizard tower near the castle. He was wearing the robe of a human alchemist. His clothes were full of holes and he had an unkempt beard. , looks like a downtrodden old beggar. He is doing experiments in the alchemy laboratory. I even suspect that he has locked himself in there for several years - he does not even know about the war in this country. When my soldiers When he kicked open the door, he turned around and yelled at the demons who had broken in, saying that they had messed up the measurement data in the laboratory."
Yzaks had a strange expression on his face: "I should be grateful to that idiot guard now. He didn't kill the old man on the spot. Instead, he strictly followed my order and reported it to the police when he found strange objects. The leader, he thought the old man was a weird thing and called me over to see what was new. So I shrunk my body and got into the human alchemy laboratory. Guess what happened next?"
Hao Ren found that Y'zaks was completely immersed in memories, so he continued the topic wherever the other person said: "What's wrong?"
"That old man told me to get out too!" Yzaks suddenly laughed. "Four demon guards broke into his laboratory. After that, it took at least an hour until I rushed over. During this time, he kept While he was lowering his head and fiddling with the parchments, he didn't even notice that it wasn't his apprentices who broke into the room, but a group of demons!"
