Chapter 87: The purgatory contract, the real purpose of Ain(1/2)
The arrangement of the Ghost Whispering Hell Tavern is basically the level of a rural tavern on earth. It may be slightly stronger, but it is also very limited.
But what is certain is that even the emperor's banquet cannot invite so many legendary masters and high-level demon hunters.
The old demon with a strong body and huge horns, in the corner, the skeleton mage holding a staff and the half-human and half-lizard monster, had a faint smell of a dragon. They sat in this small tavern, breathing the turbid air and drinking inferior wine.
(The inner scroll is too serious, and it is too difficult to communicate between the middle and lower planes, whether it is material or talented. Well, of course, too many demons will cause the plane to settle after reaching the middle plane, which is also a very unsolvable problem.) When Shi Yinghu was whispering in his heart, the brigade master Ross in front formed seals with both hands and cast a spell on everyone.
"Clever words? Mass."
After this spell, everyone around Ross could understand the words of creatures on the plane below.
After doing this, Ross's peering eyes walked to the long table in the tavern, and looked at the mature succubus who was charming but had a slave mark on his forehead, a snow-white, slender neck and neck wearing a slave collar, and said in a deep voice: "We want a guide to take on the task."
"Yes, guide one spirit coin and receive a mission requires fifty blood coins."
"How could it be so expensive?"
"This was the price many years ago. Are you the newest wizard?
"...What's wrong?" The succubus' words made Ross stagnate, and sweat faintly appeared on his forehead. Fortunately, he was still stable and did not show his timidity.
"It's nothing, it's just that your body smells too tender. Do you want to drink a cup? Cover the smell of the childish bird on your body?" The succubus front desk said, causing rude laughter and scolding around. Ross gritted his teeth and took out a spirit coin and fifty blood coin from his two pockets around his waist. It's okay to have the spirit coin. The fifty blood coin was grabbed by the succubus, and then he turned his head and swallowed it. She chewed it, and when she wanted to take another hand, Ross held his hand down.
"Okay, okay, I'm so stingy... Thirty-seven blood coins, you have to add another thirteen."
"…..." Finally, after Rose added thirteen blood coins, the succubus did not continue to act. She released a small trumpet elves with translucent wings from the small cage beside her, and then took out a dozen of fat leather shafts from under the counter and threw them in front of Rose.
Experienced brigade masters are unwilling to offend these front desks easily. If you let them get some benefits, they will take out more task scrolls at the counter. If you don't let them get some benefits, they will take out less task scrolls at the counter. It is not worth missing a good task for a little blood coins.
Although these succubus have very weak practical combat capabilities, they are the property of the Lord of Purgatory. Beating a dog depends on the owner. You can easily offend the Lord of Purgatory in the lower plane? When drinking, you will not be so drunk.
There are several magistrates in each level of the Nine-level Purgatory. Even if the magistrate of Dispat is not the strongest, he is definitely not the weakest.
In a sense, the Nine-Level Purgatory is a civilization system that truly reversely invades the lower plane and has been successful. It is rooted in Purgatory and has never been destroyed. The abyss is infinitely huge and the potential for war is called infinite. However, the Nine-Level Purgatory is nailed there. Although it cannot continue to expand, it has never been knocked down by the endless demon tide. Some scholars believe that there may be a ninth-level life form hidden in the Nine-Level Purgatory, the true king of devils, otherwise it would not be explained.
Ross held the leather scrolls and picked them one by one. Others present could not help him with this, because clever words can make people have direct communication skills, but they still cannot do it when reading and writing. Although clever words will be much faster to learn after surgery.
"I don't think there is any problem with this one, and I think there is nothing wrong with it. Everyone can use their own methods to help check it. The content of the contract content is second, and the most important thing is to check if there are any traps other than the content of the contract content." Ross took a monolithic lens and found three relatively clean copies of the large pile of leather contracts and gave them to others to see.
"I can't understand, Kate, you are also a mage. Take a look more and don't be cheated by the devil." Muladin took the contract and looked at it twice, then handed it to Shi Yinghu, Ain, Amanda, and Abuli three Amazons. They are also average. They use their four IQs to travel to hell. If Ross and Shi Yinghu were not guarded by the contract, they would be sold to the devil from his body to his soul after signing the contract, which would be the only ending.
Of course, if Rose and Shi Yinghu were not there, Ain and the other four would not have come to go crazy to hell.
Shi Yinghu didn't understand the words of Purgatory, but fortunately, Ross was professional in this area. Shi Yinghu just checked with the Haotian Dharma Eye and the Purple Soul Golden Eye. Is there any traps other than the text itself in these three contracts?
Many Purgatory Contracts are surrounded by some seemingly decorative patterns. If the contributor ignores them, then congratulations. After signing the contract, you will find that there are countless additional terms that did not exist in the contract.
Even written invisible potion is considered. Therefore, when you find that there are blockbusters of abnormal blank spaces on the contract book, you must be careful. You must never sign such a purgatory contract book.
Shi Yinghu didn't understand the words of purgatory, but he still dared to come to the lower plane. On the one hand, he had repeatedly tested Ross when he was in the world and basically trusted him. The most important point is that Shi Yinghu himself has extraordinary essence. Even if he was cheated, he had a high chance of breaking away from the magic contract that was effective for ordinary things.
The extraordinary gods, demon lords, purgatory kings, and fifth-level Dharma bodies signed all contracts of the Styx or powerful contracts of the same level, low-level abyss contracts and purgatory contracts, and they could break free at a little price.
"This one seems to have a problem. At the moment of my insight, there is a faint blue light on the text, and there are no other two contracts." As he said, Shi Yinghu handed over the three purgatory contracts in his hand to Rose.
Rose, wearing a monolithic lens, reached out to take it, and after a while, he cursed: "It's too sinister to change words with invisible potion."
Among the many contracts, there are only two without hidden traps, but even these two contracts without hidden traps are just because of the rush and really need to be done, not because of the devil's conscience.
"Two missions, clearing out the River of Fire and hunting the 'Terror' Murphy Gall. The previous mission is to clear out a large number of demons gathered in the River of Fire. The benefits of clearing out belong to us. There is also a profit after the mission is completed. The latter is that the mission is very profitable, but it is necessary to bring back Murphy Gall's soul. If it is completed, you will have the opportunity to meet the Lord Dispat and personally ask the reward from His Majesty. Let's discuss which one to do?"
"The mission of clearing out the River of Fire is harder, more troublesome, less profit, but at least we have a high chance of completing it. It is not difficult to kill the legendary devil. The problem is that it is difficult for us to find it." Shi Yinghu spoke first. Although he came to hell to do the mission, he still didn't want to meet the fifth level. Now he faced the fifth level and could not escape.
"But we will come to the lower plane often in the future. If we can get the recognition of Dispat, our future journey will be much easier. As for the pursuit, there is no prey that I, Ain, will not be able to chase."
Shi Yinghu and Ain both have their own opinions. Of course, Amanda and Ai Puli support their leaders, but the one who speaks here is professional Rose, or at least secondary professional Kate Bryan.
"Although Lord Ain's words make sense, the biggest problem now is that we can't afford to lose. Ross, you don't have many hell coins left, right? After we complete the task and obtain the exchange authority, we have a lot of time to complete other tasks in the future. If the first task fails, Ross, what should we do next?"
Shi Yinghu's words gradually strengthened the idea of the wizard Rose.
"Yes, we can't afford to lose at all. If the first mission fails, everyone can only go to the arena to fight for their lives. The first mission is the second best, and the most important thing is to succeed!" Ross looked around everyone and said.
The two people with the highest intelligence in the team said this. Although Ain was determined and determined, he didn't say anything more. Although everyone was a legend, this time the mission was in hell after all, so be cautious.
…………
After signing the contract, everyone left the tavern together, not intending to adapt or rest more, but start the task directly.
Because adaptation and rest require money, the current team is: extreme poverty!
"You guys, protect me with the courage to fight for my life, because I am the property of Maharaja Dispat. If something happens to me, you will have to pay a lot of money for it!" While flying, the blue-skinned purgatory fairy expanded her hands into circles and made a "big" posture. She is the guide of everyone. Although she basically has no combat power, she is the most important security guarantee for the newcomer to enter hell.
It means that if you pay the red tax to Dispat, you will be eligible to apply for protection from the patrol guards of the Devil City when necessary. Of course, it is better not to do this, it is very expensive.
"You group of humans, the equipment on your body will easily decay in hell. Among all of you, this guy is still stronger. You have hope of living longer, I'll be optimistic about you." The person pointed at by the Purgatory Fairy's finger was Shi Yinghu. She seemed to have been locked up for a long time and had no chance to speak, so she kept chattering whenever she had the chance.
"Why do you say that? This guy's body is not as strong and strong as Muladin." The dwarf Muladin was usually taciturn, but he seemed to be able to talk to the purgatory goblin, so he asked this question.
"I don't know either, but I just know that he is the strongest among you. This is intuition, and my intuition is very accurate." Because of the Purgatory Fairy's words, Shi Yinghu glanced at her more, but did not express anything more.
At this time, more words will lead to more mistakes.
The Endless Abyss is as big as a cow, and the Nine-Level Purgatory is as small as a nail in comparison. However, this nail is always nailed in the Endless Abyss, and it still remains unmoved despite the blows. One of the big reasons is that it is a unified whole and a whole that conducts full trade and exchanges with the middle plane. It can be said that the Nine-Level Purgatory is to use the advantages that the Endless Abyss itself has not been exploited.
For diverse travelers in the middle plane, if they want to reach the endless abyss for various purposes, the safest channel is to use the Nine Levels of Purgatory as a transit, and smuggling from the lower plane to other mid plane worlds is often inseparable from the Nine Levels of Purgatory.
It can be said that the devils of the Nine-Level Purgatory borrowed the resource advantages of the Endless Abyss to attract talents from the middle plane to fight against the Endless Abyss, and used the talent advantages of the Middle Plane to attract demons, hedge against the Middle Plane, and they were able to get along with each other, taking both sides.
After all, it is a powerful legendary team and has the Purgatory Fairy as the guide, so it is not difficult for a group of six people to pass through the plain of despair. However, everyone actually feels the difference between hell and the world.
Not only is the strength of the demon itself enhanced, but also weakened by itself and others. This addition and subtraction basically brings about a nearly downgrade level of strength punishment.
The demon is stronger and fierce in the lower plane, and has more special powers. In hell, the demon hunter not only has to endure the bewitching and erosion of the lower plane's depravity in hell, but also has a lower resistance to elemental attacks under the cover of the will of the plane. The skin becomes flammable like paper, and the cold will penetrate directly into the bones. When the flash current passes through the body, it is like a iron rod flowing through the wasteland in a rainstorm.
It can be said that almost everyone in the Legendary Squad has been greatly weakened... Except for Shi Yinghu, with the emergence of monsters on the Desperate Plain, everyone is increasingly understanding why the Purgatory Goblin is optimistic about Kate, because the Necromancer can exert its most powerful power in hell.
Shi Yinghu summoned steel bones, white bone slaughter, hell three-headed dog, and even the hateful giant beast Moriarty and the giant king Yum. They found that these five guys had a surge bonus in the lower plane. Rather than saying that necromancers could exert their power in hell, it would be better to say that necromancers in the material world have always been suppressed by the will of the plane.
(The increase is so high, even spirituality has been enhanced. Life resistance and four-dimensional attributes are not just summoning. Spells such as bone weapons, bone walls, and bone stalks have also been enhanced. Did the necromancer obtain an almost full attribute mutation +1 in hell?) The abyss is a cemetery on the plane of the world of heavens. Here, the law of death is extremely clear and powerful. As long as you can understand it, it will be allowed to read it to your heart's content.
So many necromancers were immersed in it, and they went crazy in the end after endless years.
This mission of clearing out the River of Fire is actually repeated every time. Compared to taking action by himself, the devil is more willing to hire mercenaries from the multiverse plane and then hedge against the demon legion. The Endless Abyss has no "malice" in the Nine Levels of Purgatory. The reason why the demons keep attacking the Nine Levels of Purgatory is that unless it is intentional by the Demon Lord, it is more of a natural phenomenon, just like a natural phenomenon like animal migration.
Therefore, there is no such setting as a marching and formation of demons. When the legendary team came to the River of Fire, they saw large and dense pieces of demons "squirting" in the direction of the Nine Hells. Yes, they were squirming, because if they looked down from a high altitude, they felt like a huge flesh bug, constantly arching forward. They were even constantly killing and devouring each other. They were both legions, soldiers and food, and even a torrent of destruction.
(roar!)
He raised the long sword in his hand, and the steel bones roared silently. Then, skeleton warriors crawled out of the earth on all sides, and a legion formed in a flash.
The "resentment" of the Hell Rune Sword spreads silver-white undead flames. The next moment, with its wave, skeleton warriors from all directions rushed towards the demon legion like gray-white avalanches. There were too many corpses and resentful spirits buried on this land, so that as long as the spell casting range was almost impossible to turn over, there was no medium to be awakened. There were bones everywhere and broken souls everywhere.
Shi Yinghu activated his own aura ability and blessed his undead legion. Among them, the White Bone Slaughter who rode the little fat three-headed dog in Hell was the first to take the lead. As the saying goes, licking the dog to the end, everything is available. The White Bone Slaughter has the perseverance that normal humans cannot have, so he has obtained full protection from the Hell Three-headed dog. At this moment, he controls a series of flying bone axes and wants to kill all the demons that they can see. In the black and red blood rain, the White Bone Slaughter laughs silently.
Then, the steel bones that summoned the white bone war horse by themselves were riding on the white bone war horse, and then slashed left and right on the white bone war horse. Sometimes the steel bones would even jump down and slash and kill, return to the war horse from time to time, hold up the long sword and display the "power of command" ability. Under its control, the gray-white waves hit a large number of broken blood waves in the demon craze.
Then there is the Death Giant King? Yum, who hates Moriarty. The former has the ability to kill death ripple group, while the latter has the most powerful instant single killing ability among the five mutations. As the armor and bone bars on Moriarty's chest are opened and closed, demons are dragged into it and burned into a blood sacrifice that provides stronger energy to this ferocious beast.
"roar!"
At this moment, a legendary demon flew over, and it held a huge long sword with its wings on its back, which was the most classic image of the legendary demon of the abyss.
At this moment, flames spewed out in the air, swept quickly, and the sea of skeletons was directly cleared one by one.
"Don't let the legendary demons cause too much damage to the Immortal Legion. When death and killing cannot be proportional, my magic will be consumed in large quantities until the entire Immortal Legion collapses." Shi Yinghu controls the situation in the rear where both sides are hedging. This is also a typical practice of an orthodox necromancer. The biggest taboo of an orthodox necromancer is that you rush forward before your summons have arrived.
Among all the people present, only Ain knew his own background. Even if others heard something, they would not be as real as they saw it. What's more, there was a purgatory fairy following him now. Shi Yinghu did not intend to expose too many abilities that were not necromancers. In case of no need, not to mention that he had to give his companions some room for performance. He could not do all his life and eat all his flesh.
The legendary demon showed off his might in the air. However, after dodging the bone axe, fire bomb, and iron chain, he was soon sniped by an ice arrow, a rocket, and a lightning javelin. Ain, Amanda and Apuli stood beside Shi Yinghu, controlling the battlefield on the one hand, and on the other hand, he could also protect the safety of the mage in time.
The Amazon female warrior is not weak in melee combat, at least it is definitely much stronger than ordinary mages.
…………
"I'm going to fight!"
With a low growl, the King of Hills Muladin, held a hammer in his hands and jumped violently to the center of the front-line battlefield. He gave people the feeling that a burning meteor fell on the ground. Unlike his usual taciturn, at this moment, the King of Hills Muladin, gave people the feeling that he was about to burn, his violent breath spreading, and he was crazy about fighting.
"iwantaprettygirl,iwantaprettygirl,iwantaprettygirl" After a strange and difficult spell, the brigade mage Ross pointed his hand at a violent demon in the distance. This violent demon was even larger than Moriarty, fierce and violent, with both offense and defense, and strengthened his recovery ability. Now Moriarty, who is no longer weaker than the ordinary legend, was actually under the disadvantage of the frontal offense and defense confrontation under the advantage of equipment.
However, with the use of the brigade mage Ross, the fat and violent demon in front of Moriarty disappeared without a trace.
Such a strange spell made many people behind him frightened.
(The expulsion technique of different space? Where did you expel it?) Shi Yinghu could observe the fluctuations in space, so he asked this question, but he did not speak, but sent thoughts through the spirit connection.
(...I don't know, the chances of random expulsion should still be in the endless abyss, but we should never encounter it again in our life.) Although we were surprised by the quality of the necromancer beside us, Ross still responded like this.
(The profession of Wizard Master is indeed unique, and killing people will not see blood.)
(Not to say, the brigade mage profession is actually not a strong combat-sided profession. For example, I am not good at group battles and protracted battles, nor are I good at direct killing. Perhaps some brigade mages are also very strong in actual combat, but those brigade mages are actually very strong no matter what profession they choose. However, I just study the basic profession of brigade mages, and feel that I have reached the upper limit.)
A person who is good at learning but may not be able to learn. Learning this depends on talent. Otherwise, if you find a special issue with the cutting-edge science for half an hour, you will find that the brain capacity and appetite are the same as that of appetite. Some people can eat more, while some people can only eat less. What’s worse is that they cannot understand at all, which is anorexia.
The River of Fire is under its feet, and there are magma flowing on all sides. Just the environment here is fatal to ordinary humans. Legendary powerhouses don’t care much about it. Some paladins with particularly high fire resistance or barbarians with particularly strong strength can even take a bath in the magma. Of course, that mostly refers to the magma in the human world, the magma in hell is of great importance, and it is highly toxic. It has all the same. Some can be washed, and some can be walked in and they will never come out again.
Shi Yinghu commanded the steel bones, and the steel bones commanded the skeleton army to form a convergence force and directly pushed many demons into the magma. Although the demons' fire resistance is often very high, those below the legendary ones are at most more resistant to cooking after cooking in the magma. They still have to die. In this way, a large number of unorganized and undisciplined demons were killed.
"Hey, Kate, you won't get any benefits if you kill the demon like this. Don't kill them all like this." Ain said on the side. At this moment, she also put down the javelin and used archery shooting instead. Even though she majored in spear techniques, Ain's archery shooting skills are not inferior to Amanda and Abuli beside her.
The long arrow tore the demon apart and collapsed flesh and blood, as if it was almost invincible.
"Please, Ain, we are in the lower plane now. There are as many demons as you want. You can't kill them until you vomit. You can't kill them in this life." At this moment, a large number of demons rushed over in the distance, and there was still no high-level demon driving them. More of them were just driving the instincts of biological instincts, endless and boundless.
To be continued...
