Chapter 289 You Are Right, but This Is the Brave Man

"The city wall is coming... Just as we thought, as we pushed towards the north, the city wall also surrounded us."

The demon captain reported to the dark shadow. He felt that things were not going well: "That territory has the ability to quickly build city walls."

"We are now besieged at the northernmost edge of the kingdom and cannot continue to advance. Your Highness the Demon King...are we going to try to break out?"

"..."

In response to his question, the black shadow floating in the air was silent for a long time: "It's [Northern Territory], right?"

Demon Captain: "?"

Although he didn't know why the Fallen Demon King knew the name of his enemy, he vaguely remembered...it was indeed that name.

"Yes, that territory is indeed called the Northern Territory."

In response to the Demon Captain's question, the fallen Demon King didn't say much. He just plainly told him what to do: "Move freely."

"..."

Demon Captain: "??"

These words made the Demon Captain even more strange. He didn't understand what [free movement] was at all.

Yes [You can figure it out, right? 】Do you mean?

"This...I don't understand."

The Demon Captain found it very difficult. He looked very hesitant: "Then shall we break out? Or shall we just wait for your melting?"

The fallen demon king seemed to have lost patience with his words.

"Anything is fine. If you have a chance, break out. If you can't find a chance, you can always defend the city."

After saying this, the fallen demon king took the initiative to cut off the communication from her side, and the black shadow disappeared instantly.

Demon Captain: "???"

In confusion, the demon captain looked at the tall city wall that surrounded their city in the distance, not knowing what to do next.

Did something happen to the Demon King?

The demon captain in the main plane was not sure about this. He couldn't help but stare at the high wall and the heavy crossbow on the wall.

There is no one next to the heavy crossbow, but if they want to get close, the crossbows will automatically shoot at them as if they are alive.

Perhaps it has undergone some improvement and turned into an activated construct.

However, the current ballistas are much more precise than the orcs before, making them even more difficult to deal with.

Someone in the Northern Territory has extraordinary talents, perhaps related to the control of the earth element, which is enough to allow him to build high walls and weapons in a short time.

In this case, it would be extremely difficult and almost impossible to break through.

No matter where the large team goes, the opponent's city wall will follow them and surround them tightly.

The choice of breaking out was not within his normal thinking logic.

It is even more impossible to fight head-on...

In that case, except for him, all other demons will die under the arrows of those heavy crossbows... As long as the lord of the Northern Territory still has sufficient reserves of crossbow arrows.

However, even if it is besieged, the encirclement is not completely formed.

Although this may sound strange, it is true... This is a strategic blind spot.

The demon captain looked towards the sea.

The south is tightly surrounded by the city wall, but the back is the endless sea. There seems to be no way to escape, but they are demons.

The so-called demons can fly since they were demon insects.

"Huh, that's ridiculous."

The Demon Captain hummed disdainfully, but in the next moment, he thought of the instruction from the Demon King: "Hold...?"

Perhaps His Highness the Demon King has some considerations.

That's why he gave the instruction "If you can't find a chance, it's okay to hold on to the city."

That's right! Maybe this is a test from the Demon King!

The Demon Captain decisively gave up the idea of ​​leaving the sea... looking as gloomy as a mouse. This was not his style.

Shou! The city must be defended!

When His Highness the Demon King melts, everything will be fine!

With this thought in mind, the demon captain was full of energy and decided to defend the city!

——————————

Turn the perspective to the side of the Fallen Demon King.

The Fallen Demon King, who had terminated contact, was sighing at this moment, and she flapped the black wings behind her...

Northern Territory?

This is what one of the Seven Lords, who calls himself one of the Demon Lords, thought.

Someone from the Secret Cult found her before and told her about the Northern Territory, and... things related to the lord of the Northern Territory.

A brave man named Belsi, and the demon king of slimes.

Or is it the other way around?

However, the fallen Demon King does not actually believe in the story of the hero and the Demon King, or in other words, many people in Hell do not believe in this.

Compared to a certain sense of "destined by God", she actually trusts her own power more... She wants to become the tenth level.

It is precisely because there are many people who believe that she can be the savior that they help her.

It is a pity that most people in the esoteric sect still believe more in the prophesied hero and demon king who are destined to save the world.

In other words...

She was threatened.

The specific negotiation process is very complicated, but to put it simply, "We don't care what you want to do, but you don't touch the Northern Territory." 】some type of.

Of course, it's more of a threat than this, for example——

[If I take action against Bel Xi, I will come to your door tonight. Does this little bastard know what a black hand is? 】

Well...it's not that serious in nature.

But no matter what, it seems that the hero and the devil, that is, the dragon and the slime in the Northern Territory, need to maintain a harmonious relationship.

The Fallen Demon King is even thinking about whether to make the two of them princes or something like that... as long as the other party is willing to accept it.

When the time comes, the brave man will be an abyss dragon in the abyss and a main plane dragon in the main plane, enjoying both benefits at the same time. The other party won't mind, right?

But no matter what, the Violet Kingdom can't interfere... It's really very speechless, and you have to be careful not to make an enemy of the brave.

Maybe we should turn our attention in other directions?

If you only need faith, other countries that already have the habit of believing in something may be a better choice.

The affiliated city of the Fallen Demon King will melt into the sea. If the west side is the Violet Kingdom, then the east side... is near the Theocracy.

White Dove Holy Kingdom, an ally of the Holy Kingdom.

It seems that we need to arrange it there...

So now those in the Violet Kingdom, the advance team sent by themselves... just pretend not to know them.

The fallen demon king was very calm and sentenced the members of the advance team to death and decided to throw all the blame on them.

For the sake of her grandiose career, when she needs to sell her subordinates, she will naturally not be merciful and sell them if she can!

Although it sounds cold-blooded, this is the king of hell.

Not only her, but other monarchs will also make similar choices, there is no doubt about this!

She has already thought of similar words...

Like what...

[This is what they did privately, I didn’t know this happened]

[They just joined not long ago and haven’t passed the probation period yet]

[I will definitely seriously correct my subordinates’ work style]

some type of.
