Chapter 1013: Even More Real Than Reality
In the Demon Realm, Frozen Evil Demon Expeditionary Corps.
A massive army of one million was temporarily halted, waiting for the reconnaissance forces of the Demon race and various scouting methods to report back.
"Lord Molier, a city has been discovered ahead!" Soon, a demon reconnaissance soldier quickly reported.
Molier, the newly appointed elder of the Frozen Evil Demon clan, sat on a luxurious throne, and his eyes lit up.
"Have we finally found it?" Molier nodded in satisfaction.
After spanning several large regions, their goal was to locate the base of the Flame Yellow Sect in the Demon Realm. Unexpectedly, they had actually found it!
"Lord Molier, according to the reconnaissance report, fluctuations and traces of dimensional passages were detected within that city!" The scout reported once again.
Molier's excitement grew. The discovery of a dimensional passage indicated that the city might be the main stronghold of the Flame Yellow Sect in the Demon Realm. The other end of the dimensional passage could very well lead to the headquarters of the Flame Yellow Sect.
"Hahaha! Finally, this demon has found it!" Molier grinned ferociously.
With the main force of the Flame Yellow Sect engaged in battles within the Divine-Demon Tower against various forces, their sect's main base was likely to be vulnerable. Launching a surprise attack would certainly allow them to completely crush the Flame Yellow Sect.
They could plunder the countless years of accumulation of the Flame Yellow Sect, then proceed to slaughter He Yiming's clansmen, relatives, and even female companions. It was a grand plan!
"Prepare the troops of the expeditionary corps!"
"Yes!"
...
Molier immediately issued the order, and the demon attendants quickly took action.
The so-called "Fire-Taming Legion" was Molier's elite trump card, specifically prepared to deal with the Heart Flame of the Heavenfire Purgatory!
In the midst of the great battle within the Divine-Demon Tower, Heavenfire had not appeared. Perhaps it was hiding in the shadows, waiting for the right moment.
However, there was also a slim chance that the true form of Heavenfire had not gone to the Divine-Demon Tower and instead remained within the Flame Yellow Sect's main base.
Though this was a possibility, Molier had made thorough preparations anyway.
"Lord Molier, there are other issues regarding that city..." At this moment, the scout reported again.
"What issues? Are the defending enemies formidable? Don't worry, I will personally take action. I won't give them a chance to escape back to the dimensional gate!" Molier waved his hand confidently and dominantly.
This was the absolute confidence of a seventh-stage demon.
"No, the situation is like this... Inside that city, there are only a few remaining disciples of the Flame Yellow Sect. However, there are about ten thousand demon slaves..." The scout reported.
"Hmm?" Molier was taken aback.
Subsequently, Molier led his troops to the outskirts of Warlock City, dozens of miles away.
With the power of a seventh-stage demon, Molier quickly spanned dozens of miles, clearly observing everything within Warlock City.
"Get to work!"
"What the hell?"
"Damn it! These worthless demon slaves!"
"Why aren't you getting up? I'll whip you to death, damn it!"
...
Hundreds of disciples of the Flame Yellow Sect in their yellow robes were seen viciously lashing a large group of slaves. These slaves were demons, their cultivation levels not insignificant, but they fell into two distinct categories.
One resembled monkeys, presumably from the ape tribe. The other was the rabbit-like race.
Molier carefully observed for a moment, then became certain!
Yes, it was real!
Because within Warlock City...
"Ah ah ah, you damn well really lash!"
"Hahaha, not only will I whip you today, but I'm also going to beat you to death with this stick! Hahaha!"
"Damn it, these guys are crazy, they're insane!"
"Wait a minute, isn't this just an act? Why are these bastards whipping so ferociously? It's even worse than in reality!"
"Obviously, this is great! Taking the opportunity to be overseers and bully others. Why not enjoy it? Damn it, work quickly! If you don't work, I'll whip you to death!"
"You bastard, I'm fighting you!"
...
The hundreds of players who were supervising work were excitedly whipping and having all sorts of fun. They were harsher and meaner than real supervisors. Even Molier couldn't help but secretly admire it.
The Flame Yellow Sect's treatment of slaves was even harsher than that of the demons themselves! No wonder they had risen so quickly. They truly were ruthless and merciless!
"Hehe, I see. The Flame Yellow Sect, like us demons, expands and develops rapidly by capturing a large number of slaves!" Upon witnessing this scene, Molier suddenly understood.
Before leading the expeditionary corps here, Molier had thoroughly analyzed and researched the Flame Yellow Sect. After all, as a seventh-stage demon and a newly appointed elder, he wouldn't impulsively lead a million elite demon army on an expedition.
Now that he witnessed this scene, Molier was convinced.
The rapid development of the Flame Yellow Sect was clearly due to a strategy similar to that of the demons. They captured slaves from various races to use as expendable resources and laborers.
Small forces could only capture ordinary people as slaves. Powerful forces could even capture cultivators as slaves!
When the top forces of the Demon Realm invaded the True Dragon Ancient Realm, they even captured True Dragons as mounts! They used females of the True Dragon tribe as slaves!
The applications of slaves were many, including labor, refining, and extracting bloodlines. For the demons, their usefulness was more about satisfying various bloodthirsty and murderous desires.
With just one breath, Molier had confirmed and believed that the monkey and rabbit demons in front of him were indeed slaves captured by the Flame Yellow Sect.
"Attack!" Molier waved his hand, ordering the troops to advance.
"Kill!" Molier didn't deploy a large-scale army; instead, he sent his personal guards!
These personal guards were elites with at least fifty-five demon traces, exceptionally powerful!
"Ah!?"
"What's going on?"
"Damn it!"
...
The hundreds of Flame Yellow Sect disciples inside Warlock City hadn't even realized what was happening before they were completely annihilated.
"Boom!" Molier took a step in midair, crossing thousands of kilometers in an instant. He quickly arrived at the city lord's mansion and confirmed the situation with the dimensional passage.
"Good, it's indeed a dimensional passage leading to the Human Race's Three Thousand Worlds..." Molier checked and nodded in satisfaction.
Without any surprises, the other end of this dimensional passage should lead directly to the Flame Yellow Sect's main stronghold.
"Lord Molier, those demon slave-things outside want to see you!" Just at that moment, one of Molier's subordinates came over to report.
"They want to see me?" Molier was momentarily puzzled, then strode out.
Soon, the figures of over ten thousand monkey and rabbit demons appeared before Molier.
At the forefront was a monkey with its body covered in blood, chains still on its feet—truly the appearance of a recently freed slave.
ID: Sugar Third.
These ten thousand monkey and rabbit demons were naturally the male players of the
Fourth Beta Test.
"Damn, Third Brother's plan is brilliant!"
"Yes, he recruited hundreds of brothers who were about to log out to pose as Flame Yellow Sect disciples, while we posed as slaves. This plan of feigning hardship is excellent!"
"Next, we'll watch Third Brother's performance!"
"If everything goes as expected, after Third Brother successfully deceives them, we can charge as the vanguard into the Ancient Array Realm!"
"Exactly, gaining the trust of the demon race, fighting alongside them in the Ancient Array Realm—what a clever move!"
"After eradicating the Ancient Array Realm, we'll stage a surprise betrayal, annihilating the demons. Brilliant, isn't it?"
...
The demon players were becoming excited, communicating with each other through voice chat.
This plan of disguising themselves as slaves was, of course, devised by Sugar Third.
And obviously...
The demon race had already completely believed these Fourth Beta Test male players and genuinely saw them as slaves captured by the Flame Yellow Sect.
This plan was already ninety-nine percent successful!
