Chapter 749 Confrontation with the Lord
"Withdraw your terror riders. As long as your undead don't set foot on the bloody hills, I can give the front half of the courtyard to humans."
The first encounter in the sky, there was no greeting or teasing. One person and one demon, they had no intersection before. At this moment, Philemon took the lead and brought up the topic of establishing diplomatic relations.
"Philimon, are you joking with me?" Facing the sudden arrival of the Lord of the Courtyard, Mu Hua was not too surprised by Philemon's words.
Give it to humans, but not specifically to him, Mu Hua.
Since the Star Patrol Conference, the Barus demon in front of him has been very stable. Until he led his army to set foot on the bloody hills, Philemon's side did not even appear to mobilize a decent army.
As for his words about giving the front half of the courtyard to humans, they can basically be ignored. These demons come to the human world to hang courtyards. They can't be said to raise chickens and pigs, but the attitude of these demons towards humans is similar to raising wolves and taming tigers.
Demons want to obtain emotional energy from humans, but it is difficult to send humans to hell safely. If they want more humans, they naturally have to give humans enough living space in the courtyard.
Most courtyard masters don't mind giving humans some sweet treats to attract more humans to their courtyards.
Philemon is the same, so even if Mu Hua catches the Goblin General and the Ice Queen and washes them in various ways, Philemon did not react too much.
Even in the Bloody Hills, the demons who have not experienced too much high-intensity war in the courtyard are likely to still hold the mentality that fighting is healthier.
Anyway, they will not be completely cold, and fighting with naturally weak humans can not only vent their excitement, but also promote their own evolution.
And some things are valuable to humans, but they are not rare in hell. The demons gather resources and wealth for the sake of growth and evolution. Even if they sacrifice some descending sacrifices, it doesn't hurt those projection demons.
These are still the mentality of lower-level demons. If they are placed on demons like Philemon and Jiamene, they will even have instruments to transform the Philosopher's Stone.
If you mess with your own monsters in hell, they will die. If your own troops die too much, you may be targeted by other powerful demons.
Collecting emotional energy is a hassle. Let alone fighting with other demon lords, even if there is an internal fight in your own forces, the loss may be greater than the sacrifice of the projection.
The courtyard is so good. After eating humans, you can eat monsters. You can attack both the enemy and yourself. Moreover, letting your subordinates lose some financial resources can also promote the stability of your family.
After all, no matter whether it is a demon or a human, if you have money in your pocket, you will be confident. If you have more money in your pocket, you will naturally enjoy life more and pursue yourself more. Then, naturally, it will be not so easy to use.
For high-level demons like Philemon, the courtyard is simply the best place for them to practice financial management and maintain stability. Getting a magic tool and transforming it into a philosopher's stone is no less valuable than those miscellaneous sacrifices.
So Philemon didn't mind humans running to his doorstep and shouting at him to kill him. He might even be looking forward to it.
But when it came to Mu Hua, especially when Mu Hua climbed up the Bloody Hill, things were a little wrong.
What do demons hate the most? What they hate the most is the elite troops strategy.
And you not only have a small number of soldiers, but you also put a lot of undead.
You're not very decent, are you?
A bunch of headless knights are hacking and hacking on the Bloody Hill. You don't have anything you want, but the equipment and sacrifices of our men are all exploded. It's painful to see them explode.
What is this called? This is called premium! Serious premium!
Now, Philemon can't sit still. He is not dissatisfied with Mu Hua's trouble. He doesn't like Mu Hua's trouble with the skeleton undead. . .
"Let me withdraw the Terror Riders, and you can get Jiamene out from underground. As long as the Spider Demons come to the surface, I can even give the blockade to the Adventurer's Guild." Mu Hua said to Philemon half-truthfully and with disdain.
"There are too few humans in the courtyard now, so there is no need to let the adventurers suffer too many casualties. Your invasion progress is too fast." Philemon shook his head.
"..." Mu Hua was stunned.
Damn, what the hell is this focus, we are talking about Spider Demons, okay? Why does this sound wrong? Why do I feel that this demon is more positive than us?
"Hehe, don't you humans like to talk about strategy and tactics the most?" Jiamene's voice suddenly echoed in the void.
In the sky, silver threads appeared, and in the empty space, Jiamene was like a spider with silk hanging down, hanging upside down in the void in a weird posture. When interrupting, she hid far away from Mu Hua and Philemon.
"Spider demons are the darlings of the earth. One day, I will even become the mother of the earth."
"It's normal for us to be underground. Otherwise, you let all humans give up their airships and chariots and mechas, and we will fight hard on the earth, haha." Jiamene's teasing voice came from afar.
Jiamene has a cold and arrogant temperament. In front of Mu Hua, when she is unrestrained, her eyes flash with cold light that is difficult to hide from time to time.
"Get out, before I tear you apart." Mu Hua glanced at Jiamene coldly, scolded her, and was too lazy to pay attention to her.
If she was not a projection, Mu Hua would try his best to scratch her claws the first time she appeared, but she is like this now, killing her once or twice is meaningless.
If it is a head-on battle now, Mu Hua does not take the demon commander seriously, even a stronger commander like Jiamene.
"Human, you should learn to be content. Death Canyon can be your pasture for the undead. I can also mark out a safe zone for humans in the Bloody Hills."
"There are countless courtyards in your world. Give up the fight between you and me. You can use this place as a place to recuperate." Mu Hua despised Jiamene, and Philemon didn't care much about Jiamene's appearance.
And this Barus demon, who should be overbearing and arrogant in Mu Hua's imagination, calmed down. However, this good-sounding suggestion is obviously not as simple as it sounds.
"Let my people live surrounded by demons? Or wait for you to support another human force to fight me."
"Barus, as you said, there are many courtyards in the human world, and these routines have been used by too many demons."
"Let me? Then let me see what qualifications you have to let me." Not wanting to talk too much, or rather, Mu Hua has always wanted to find an opportunity to do Philemon, so as to have a more accurate positioning of the Lord of Hell.
As he spoke, Mu Hua flashed and suddenly appeared beside Philemon, but Philemon's perception of space was also very strong. Almost at the same time as Mu Hua flashed, Philemon had already moved synchronously and distanced himself from Mu Hua.
"Qualification? Your Terror Rider, your dragon, do you really think I can't do anything with them?"
"Human, don't talk about qualifications in front of a hell lord, even if your..."
Mu Hua attacked, Philemon was indifferent, but before he finished speaking, Mu Hua, who had just flashed, shot out at a speed comparable to flash, approaching Philemon with a sonic boom.
Compared to flashing, Mu Hua's surprise attack this time surprised Philemon more. There was no fluctuation in casting spells, and Mu Hua showed such a rapid advance in the air without a fulcrum, which surprised Philemon a little.
The power of the devil? Impossible, right?
Because Mu Hua often uses the Touch of Jealousy, Philemon knows that Mu Hua's intelligence attribute is somewhat extraordinary, but unless the magic power has undergone a qualitative change, no matter how high the intelligence attribute is, the necessary casting process cannot be abandoned.
The speed-up of flying magic lacks some explosiveness, and Mu Hua's aerial advance must rely on some magic assistance.
Philemon was suspicious, but he didn't care too much when facing Mu Hua's claws.
Retreat and move to avoid Mu Hua's edge. In the air, even if he can't keep up with Mu Hua's attack speed for a while, Philemon can completely unload the force perfectly.
Philemon has rich combat experience. While letting Mu Hua's claw attack pass, the thunder claws wrapped with destructive power also swept towards Mu Hua.
At this level of the two, defensive magic is often useless in close combat, but those sturdy and high-defense armors are more effective in protecting themselves.
"Zheng~~!" There was a sharp friction sound. Philemon's counterattack did not hit Mu Hua, but Mu Hua's arm suddenly grew longer, and his claws reached his body, tearing open the armor under Philemon's robe.
"How dare you!" Philemon shouted angrily.
Purple lightning exploded all over his body, and Philemon forced Mu Hua back. The arm's growth should be the ability of Behemoth. Philemon was not surprised that Mu Hua perfected the Behemoth incarnation, after all, Mu Hua became Behemoth and rode Leticia.
But his armor was all high-end. Not to mention the armor, the robe he wore outside the armor had strong defense. The armor-piercing ability of Behemoth's claws should not be that strong. Could it be...
"You..." After forcing Mu Hua back, Philemon seemed to have thought of something, and the flat and strange face of the Barus demon actually wrinkled.
"Ah~~!" Philemon, who was originally confronting Mu Hua, suddenly curled up his body, screaming in pain and shaking.
"Fenrir! Um~~~ Um~~~ Um~~~" Philemon, who curled up his body, suddenly let out a groan that made people's hair stand on end, and the groan even scared Mu Hua.
Philemon had left the black dragon he was riding when Mu Hua attacked him.
However, Philemon was floating in the sky, his body rubbing and drifting in the void like a worm.
A rubbing, a groan, a rubbing, a hum.
The previous temperament and style were completely gone, and the aura... Ahem, it's hard to describe.
"..." Mu Hua had a strange expression.
Good guy, it's Philemon after all. This is the first time Mu Hua has encountered a guy who can't be killed by the poison of the world.
He pushed and rubbed, but it seemed that Mu Hua's world poison could not kill him. It was probably to prevent Mu Hua from taking advantage of the situation and attacking him. Philemon was covered with dense lightning to protect his body.
As if... Well, okay, let's say it was like Thor, but the posture was a bit wrong.
The power of destruction, the purple lightning containing the power of destruction, centered on Philemon, raged and exploded in the sky, and Mu Hua did not dare to touch it.
He fumbled and manifested the Jam Sweetheart, and the bullets were loaded. Mu Hua raised the gun with one hand, pointing the muzzle at Philemon who seemed to be digesting the toxins in his body, but his eyes were looking at Jiamene in the distance.
At this moment, the fate spider silk that was still spreading in the sky suddenly retreated, and Jiamene looked like she had seen a ghost, and her figure flashed and disappeared.
The world poison, she Jiamene, probably can't stand it for the time being... (End of this chapter)
