Chapter 562 Lan Qi Is Now Called Wuming Qing
In the dark night, the wind and snow were still howling rapidly, and the silver moonlight poured out from the gaps in the thick clouds and sprinkled on the snow.
The golden lightning in the blizzard reminded the demons of only one thing-
their powerful ancestors.
That infinite power.
As a demon, even if the day is gone, you can still choose to die in the glow of the sunset.
Count Gregory's laughter seemed to have died suddenly.
His face quickly changed from joy to pale, his lips trembled, and panic was like a dark cloud blocking his eyes!
He stared up at this glowing demon.
"Rocky McCarthy... What on earth are you?!"
Why is a Polant Empire man, an unknown royal craftsman, actually a great demon from the demon world?
Gregory could think of 10,000 ways to follow up today, but he never thought that this weak human was actually playing with him.
Before the Earl could continue to offend, Lieutenant Colonel Luca had already rushed over and raised his weapon to smash Gregory's head.
"How can a mere vampire count like you offend this lord!"
Lieutenant Colonel Luca's attitude changed instantly and he roared.
If the vampire count attacked the Great Demon first and the Great Demon captured him, according to the North-South Treaty, the vampire count was also responsible!
The seventh-level vampire count thought the Great Demon of their demon world was a human and wanted to capture him, which was simply courting death!
In addition to the marks given by other Great Demons, only those who have at least one heart and at least one force mark can become a Great Demon and make other ordinary Demons want to submit.
The heart mark represents that they have extraordinary mental characteristics and can defeat the strong with the weak, while the force mark represents at least the eighth level and has a combat specialty.
However, Luca was sure that the warrior's aura and the magic fluctuations on the body of this glowing demon were undetectable, and he even felt that this demon was not dangerous at all!
This made him even more frightened.
He could not tell whether the other party was at the eighth or ninth level.
Finally, Lieutenant Colonel Luca chopped off Count Gregory's entire head and kicked it away with one foot, and the blood count's voice almost disappeared.
"Excuse me, how should I address you?"
Lieutenant Colonel Luca put away the sword again, put it into the scabbard, knelt on one knee to salute Lanqi and asked.
Every demon is an unattainable name in the current demon world.
Even the general of their second army did not have six title marks.
The demon with six strange marks in front of him may not be a demon active in this era.
"..."
Lanqi pondered for a moment, as if he was asked a question he had not heard for a long time.
According to the demon's title method, the title can generally be used as a honorific, such as Pranay of Truth, Lanqi can call him Lord Truth.
But he has no title.
"Just... call me Lord Wuming."
Lanqi answered softly.
Pranay told him that he could answer like this if he met other demons.
"......?"
Lieutenant Colonel Luca's shoulders trembled, and he raised his head fearfully and peeked at the demon along the brim of his military cap.
It was the first time he saw a living nameless demon.
If the three marks include the trial of the soul of the ancestors, or if he is recognized by the contemporary demon king, he will be further given a title. Otherwise, even if he becomes a demon, he will be an "unknown demon" who is not recognized by the demons.
For the demons, the "unknown demon" itself is a taboo existence. Even the demons are unwilling to recognize the demons, and the danger is often higher than the regular demons.
Not to mention the ancient demons with six seals.
The current ruler of the demons, the Fallen Kaliera, is only seven seals.
"Don't worry, I'm not an enemy of the demon world. I came to the demon world this time for something important."
Lanqi smiled helplessly when he saw the reaction of the demon officer.
The reason why he became an unknown demon was mainly due to the times. He could not pass the ancestral land trial or get the recognition of the previous demon king.
"So that's it..."
Lieutenant Colonel Luca immediately understood the intention of this mysterious demon.
This demon had concealed his identity and lived outside the demon world for many years as a human. He even obviously held a high position in the Polant Empire.
Now that the northern continent is in chaos and the old king of the demon world is dead, he wants to take the princess of the last descent into his hands.
Although he is an old antique demon, he may be a little different from the princess in terms of generation, but the demons have never cared about the age difference, and there are many marriages with a difference of hundreds or thousands of years.
"Sir, is there anything we can do? I will do my best to make up for my mistakes."
Lieutenant Colonel Luca knew that he was not qualified to ask, and he even offended this demon before.
But he believed that since this great demon had not returned to the demon world for many years, he would definitely need a guide, and if his goal in returning to the demon world was the princess, he would naturally not go on a killing spree and violate the rules of the demon world.
"I don't want to trouble you. This is your job. I understand."
Lanqi waved his hand in response casually. He did not mean to blame them, nor did he need them to remedy anything.
"But have you ever thought that as a lieutenant colonel and a non-commissioned officer on this border, you may often encounter this kind of trouble in the future? After all, in my opinion, the human kingdom is not peaceful at present, and the blood clan is ready to move. The North-South Treaty will make you feel caught between a rock and a hard place."
He looked at the corpse of the count in the distance.
Lanqi had seen earlier that this officer Luca was not so decisive in responding to the Count's request. He hesitated at every step and was full of reluctance.
According to Lanqi's understanding of the demons, even if Planai was so tolerant, he would be very angry if the "North-South Treaty" was put in front of him.
"..."
Luca was silent and tightened the hilt of the sword.
"Do you think the demons are too cowardly?"
Lanqi continued to ask.
He didn't seem to be torturing the other party, but he hadn't been back to the demon world for many years, and he was simply confused from his perspective.
"..."
Lieutenant Colonel Luca couldn't answer the words of the big demon.
To be honest, he also wanted to be as open-minded as this adult, and didn't have to be submissive to the blood clan, but this was not something he could change. He was just an officer with a low position.
"Think about it carefully, what kind of demon do you want to be."
Lanqi patted Luca's shoulder with one hand and didn't say anything more.
He felt that Lieutenant Colonel Luca was quite worldly-wise, and that it might be a waste to spend time at the border. He would communicate with him and his subordinates on the way to see if he could give them some inspiration.
Then.
Lanqi looked in the direction he had come from.
There should be no danger on the snowfield now. As long as he borrowed a skeleton warhorse from a demon officer, Sieglei should be able to reach Little Night City in ten hours.
