Lord of the Scourge: Become the Demon Archduke In the Beginning

next morning.

The sky is as blue and clear as the sea, without any clouds.

After the great battle last night, the city of Huiyue is still in a dignified atmosphere.

Many residents got up early and stopped to stare at the ruined city wall.

Seeing the tragic scene with bloodstains and war scenes everywhere in front of them, everyone was terrified.

If Huiyue City lost the battle last night, the consequences would be countless times more serious than this time.

None of them may survive.

A pious aunt put her hands together on her chest, praying in a low voice.

"Goddess, I hope that your halo will always protect the city of Huiyue..."

A middle-aged man in his early forties saw a forgotten shriveled arm not far away, with fear in his eyes, looked around a few times, and lowered his voice.

"Did you see it last night? A pair of wings that only demons have grown from behind the lord..."

The young man next to him frowned.

"So what? Do you think the lord is a demon?"

"No, the lord is definitely not a demon..." The middle-aged man shook his head resolutely, looked at the young man whose face softened a little, and continued.

"But, have you ever thought about what if the lord is tempted by the devil?

When you were in Decker City, didn't you hear the troubadour tell the legends of the past? No one knows how many mighty empire kings have been seduced by demons. Fallen into a tyrant.

Although the lord is very powerful, can he still be compared to the king who rules most of the main plane? "

The young man was startled, and after thinking for a moment, he slowly shook his head.

"Legends are legends after all, this is the City of Bright Moon, the home we want to protect.

Even if Lord Lord degenerates into a demon, I firmly believe that he must be different from the legendary demon. "

The middle-aged man hesitated when he heard these firm words.

Finally, he took a deep look at the red armband on the young man's shoulder, and stopped speaking, but the fear and worry in his heart remained.

This scene is just a microcosm among the residents.

When Roren spread his demon wings in mid-air, the residents quickly split into two camps.

One is that the benevolent and benevolent great lord is likely to be seduced by the devil, just like the legend.

Maybe they will be ruled brutally next, and some people even think about fleeing the city.

The other camp expressed their firm belief and support for Lauren. They did not believe that the great Lord Lauren could be tempted by demons.

Even if he is tempted by the devil, Lord Laurent will definitely not become a tyrant like in the legend, and they will never leave this city full of future and hope.

But no matter what they think in their hearts, there is a doubt in their hearts.

Was Lord Laurent really tempted by a demon?

if not,

What are those demon wings?

With different thoughts in their hearts, the residents learned a very important news.

The lord will hold a public funeral for the soldiers who died in battle, and will issue several particularly important decrees.

Hearing this news, the residents who had fear in their hearts became even more uneasy.

Is it really as they thought?

The sun rises and floats above the clear sky.

But such good weather failed to dispel the shadows in the hearts of the residents.

With different thoughts, the crowd was led by the soldiers to the gate of the city lord's manor.

Wait quietly.

ten o'clock in the morning.

Under the gaze of the crowd, a group of figures slowly appeared in the manor.

The leader, Lauren, was wearing a black robe with a white flower on his chest, and his handsome face was dignified and serious.

Behind him are soldiers with tired faces, but what is different from the past is that the angry bear cavalry leads the giant bear, the wolf spear thrower is accompanied by the giant wolf, and everyone walks...

No one is privileged at this moment.

The moment they saw Lauren's figure, many residents trembled and lowered their heads subconsciously...

The atmosphere was countless times lower than before.

Lauren noticed the strangeness in the eyes of the residents. His deep eyes scanned the crowd, and he walked outside without saying anything.

After the army behind them completely left the manor, the residents slowly followed.

Luo Lun led the crowd, stepped on the grass, and headed towards the back of the city of Huiyue.

There are large tracts of land that have not had time to be reclaimed.

Twenty minutes later, Lauren stopped in front of a valley.

This valley is located in the depths of Huiyue City, with a length of one kilometer and a width of one kilometer. The verdant grass is lush and full of vitality.

And it is protected by towering peaks on three sides, very quiet.

At this time, more than a dozen soldiers were on guard at the gate of the valley.

What is even more eye-catching is that through the 100-meter-wide entrance, you can see hundreds of sacrificed soldiers laying on the ground with white cloths in the valley.

The graves next to it have been dug one after another.

This is a valley that belongs to heroes.

After taking a deep breath, Lauren led the crowd into the valley.

After the soldiers came to the front of the hero covered in white cloth, they stopped slowly.

He was the only one walking alone.

rustle~

Leather boots made a slight sound of footsteps on the grass.

The breeze blows the white cloth, and the scars of the sacrificed soldiers can be seen from time to time...

My heart is heavy, every step I take is like stepping on my heart.

This made Lauren very uncomfortable.

No matter which world, soldiers who guard the land and people are always worthy of respect.

The soldiers never died, and their blood will become the cornerstone of Huiyue City, glorious and great.

Coming to the most central area, a raised natural boulder happens to be the podium.

Lauren took a few deep breaths, calmed down, and stepped forward.

The crowd instantly focused their attention on the boy's face.

Eyes contain fear, fear, but also admiration, trust and worship.

Lauren's dark eyes looked at pieces of long white cloth. After pondering for a long time, he looked directly at the eyes of the residents below.

He opened his mouth slowly.

"People of Huiyue City, today is a great day, a glorious day that can be recorded in the history of Huiyue City."

"Because we defeated the powerful Lizardman who can roam the endless wasteland!"

"Victory belongs to you, and glory belongs to you who are meaningless."

When the crowd below heard this, they were inexplicably relieved.

Their lord seems to have not changed, and it is still the great existence that makes them respect and worship.

The soldiers were emotionally excited, no matter what the price they paid, they were the winners of this war after all.

After a few seconds of pause, Lauren's voice sank.

"However, victory comes at a price,"

"Our fighters gave their all and died in the battle to guard the city of Huiyue."

"They deserve every level of praise and reward.

I am proud and proud of them!

All residents present should be proud that we have such fearless fighters. "

After finishing speaking, he bowed slowly to the soldiers below.

"In the name of the city lord of Huiyue City, I thank you for your dedication."

This action directly caused the pot below to explode.

Lord Laurent... unexpectedly, actually bowed to them? ! !

What is Lauren? The city lord of Huiyue City, the descendant of the Bauhinia family, and the master of all of them, can decide their fate with one word!

During this month, everyone can see that as long as the future city of Huiyue is not captured, it must have an infinite future, and all of this is brought about by this young man.

But now, such a dignified figure bowed to them! !

The soldiers who were born as slaves suffered a very strong psychological impact.

In this world where there is such a big gap between the superior and the inferior, Lauren's actions are unimaginable to most people.

The loyalty of the soldiers is skyrocketing at this moment.

If Lauren opened the attribute panel at this time, he could find that the number of diehards who reached 100 points directly exceeded 10 from the original three or two.

The loyalty of the remaining soldiers has also soared to 97, 98, and all those below 95 are gone.

And those residents who were suspicious of Lauren were also shocked at this moment, and they were all ashamed.

They... would doubt the great lord!

Damn it.

After more than ten seconds, Lauren slowly straightened up.

Looking at the crowd whose atmosphere suddenly changed, he said in a concentrated voice.

"Those who have done wrong must be punished, and those who have done well must be rewarded.

This is my code of conduct, and it is also the law that Huiyue City treats everyone.

Heroes will never be forgotten, and I am here to announce a new policy—the Hero Protection Act.

One of the core items of this law is - all the soldiers who died for the city of Huiyue, their families will be supported by the city of Huiyue! "

Wow~

The crowd immediately erupted into a tsunami-like heated discussion.

The residents were full of disbelief and shock, and their eyes were full of envy when they looked at the soldiers ahead.

Your lord treats your army very well! !

The soldiers were all very excited.

Although Lauren mentioned it yesterday, but repeating it on such a formal occasion at this moment, it is obvious that this matter has become a foregone conclusion.

In this chaotic world, there are dangers everywhere, and everyone has the possibility of sacrifice.

If family members can obtain a peaceful and stable life after their own sacrifices, what worries do they have?

Praise the goddess! Praise Lord Laurent! !

Looking at the crowd who were talking wildly, Lauren paused for a while, and waited for the voice to fade away before speaking in a concentrated voice.

"The Hero Protection Act is the first law, now, I want to announce the second law..."

The crowd immediately stopped discussing after hearing the words, but their eyes were still full of enthusiasm and anticipation.

The boy's voice on the stone platform suddenly became high-pitched.

"Yesterday, the city wall was breached, the lizardmen attacked and entered the city, and the city of Huiyue was at stake..."

"At this moment, thousands of frogmen poured out from Huiyue Lake, cooperated with our army, strangled the lizardmen, and quelled the battle."

"Many people must have doubts, where did these frogmen come from?!"

"Also last night, a pair of wings spread out behind me, evil and dangerous, you must be wondering, where did the wings come from?"

These words speak directly to the hearts of the people.

The frogmen have already attacked Glorious Moon City twice on the Bloody Day, why are they fighting for them this time? Help them fight the Lizardmen?

And what happened to the Demon Wings behind Lauren? Was it true that he had been seduced by the devil, as they thought?

Countless doubts echoed in their minds, and everyone was eager to know the answers.

After being silent for a long time, Lauren slightly raised his head to look at the sky.

"Are you still wondering why we were able to develop so fast after the city of Bright Moon was breached on the last bloody day?"

Seeing that instead of giving them a short answer, Lauren asked a new rhetorical question, which immediately aroused the curiosity of the crowd even more.

"My lord, we believe in you, please tell us the truth!!"

"Lord Lauren, whether you are a devil or an angel, I will be loyal to you..."

"Goddess, I believe that you will never be a cruel demon..."

As soon as the hero protection law came out, Lauren's reputation not only recovered, but even rose to another level.

Those residents who were originally skeptical also rebuilt their confidence at this moment.

How could such a benevolent and great existence be the legendary cruel and bloodthirsty demon? ! !

Lauren waited until the atmosphere of the crowd reached a certain limit before speaking again.

"The answer to all this lies in the last bloody day."

As he spoke, there seemed to be lights in his eyes.

"On the night when the bloody polluters broke into our territory, in my sleep, I met a radiant figure with a star-like mark engraved on her head..."

hiss~

The crowd below gasped.

On the forehead, engraved with a star-like symbol? ! !

God of Creation! ! ! !

The God of Creation on the main plane of Nuoer has always been a female image, the most famous of which is the star symbol on her forehead.

Legend has it that the star symbol is the goddess' beloved - the main plane of Noel.

The goddess used great divine power to turn the main plane of Nuoer into a star and wear it on her forehead.

It is unknown whether this legend is true or not, but it is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

Under the shocked eyes of the crowd, Lauren's voice became more solemn and sacred.

"That mysterious and stalwart existence has been watching me for a long time.

The last voice rang in my head...

The sky has been shrouded in blood for too long, all living beings are suffering, and the goddess cannot bear this.

She will choose a king from the world and give it extra power to end the bloody day and restore the peace of the world. "

"The power in it includes wind, rain, thunder and lightning, light, darkness, demons, and undead..."

"Unfortunately, most of these powerful forces were shattered in the battle of the gods at the time of the twilight of the gods.

Only the power of the devil survived. "

Having said that, although the crowd still couldn't believe it, they began to believe this seemingly absurd rhetoric inexplicably in their hearts.

Being favored by the gods is not a false thing in legends, there are countless historical books that record the blessings of the gods.

It's only after Ragnarok that these things become less and less...

But in the hearts of the crowd, how much a goddess exists, it is naturally impossible to fall into the twilight of the gods.

So it is not impossible to bless mortals... Moreover, the magic of this city also made them extremely amazed, and it seems that it is not out of the ordinary to describe it as the favor of the gods.

"I was blessed by that great being, so I gained unprecedented power - the power of demons.

Not only can he incarnate as a demon, but he can also use this power as a bond to command other demons. "

"So, there are two kinds of demons in this world.

One is brutal, dark, and frightening demons who live in planes other than the main plane. "

"The other type is the demons of Huiyue City. They were conquered by me. They fought bravely and absolutely obeyed orders. They will fight for Huiyue City!"

After Lauren finished speaking, he switched directly to the demon form.

His eyes turned blood red, and the demon wings on his body suddenly spread out. The specially designed clothing was not damaged this time.

A terrifying evil aura surged out from his body, sending chills down everyone's backs.

Bloody eyes, devil's wings, combined with an evil aura.

The appearance of this devil's logo made the crowd below suddenly agitated.

But after being mentally prepared, and after Lauren didn't seem to do anything out of the ordinary, they slowly came back to their senses.

Correspondingly, there are even more crazy heated discussions.

"Goddess, you can really transform into a devil!!"

"It's hard to imagine that Lord Laurent has actually received the blessing of the goddess!"

"It's so shocking...is this a demon?!"

The warrior below had already seen Lauren's demon form last night, and at this time there was no fear at all, but looked at him with fiery eyes.

Enslaving demons sounds domineering and invincible.

It is worthy of being their master!

"Dark blood knight."

Lauren looked at the distance at this moment.

After a while, the faces of the crowd changed.

From beyond the valley, 60 dark blood knights galloped towards them.

After the lizardmen cold-blooded cavalry were darkened, they changed greatly.

The whole body is covered with evil inscriptions, the fangs have become sharper, and the skin has grown scales.

The rider above - the dark knight, besides retaining the iconic big mouth of the lizardman, also has scales on his body like the dark lizard.

It looks very visually impactful.

Not only the residents, but also the soldiers were in commotion after seeing the dark blood knight.

After Lauren asked them to evacuate last night, no one except the air cavalry knew about the birth of this demon army.

Under the vigilance of the soldiers and the fearful gaze of the residents.

The Dark Blood Cavalry came brazenly with the momentum of a galloping army.

Before coming to the cemetery where the white cloth covers the body.

Swipe~ The dark knight suddenly turned over and got off the dark lizard, kneeling on one knee.

Eyes wild.

"My lord, your humble servant salutes you..."

Wow~

The crowd boiled again.

His eyes are scarlet, and his aura is extremely evil, making it easy to see his identity as a demon at a glance.

Unexpectedly, such a demon really surrendered to him as Master Lauren said...

All of a sudden, they became extremely excited.

But that's not all.

Then, a stench came from a distance.

A legion of more than a hundred people, all composed of silver-level frogmen, came to Lauren under the leadership of a strange frogman with two horns and scarlet eyes exuding a dark and brutal atmosphere.

"Master, Ancarus has lived up to your expectations.

I have conquered the lake for the City of the Bright Moon.

The 2,300 frogmen in Huiyue Lake obey your orders. "

Just when the crowd was frying pan again.

In the sky, there was a buzzing sound.

After transforming into queen bee form, Eringo with a black and yellow hornet's tail arrives with 150 Bumblebee hunters.

At this time, Yi Lingo did not hide his aura, and the chilling evil and darkness spewed out.

The gold-ranked devil bee queen held her head high, not even bothering to look at the residents below.

Flying in mid-air, then bent down and bowed his head.

"Master, Yilingo is waiting for your order. Your will will be the direction we are going."

There are three legions, each of which is more exciting than the other.

Dark Blood Knight, Demon Frogman, Hornet Air Cavalry...

These evil and terrifying beings are all prostrate at the moment under the extremely handsome young man who spread out the wings of the devil.

Humble and surrender.

This scene gave the crowd a great psychological impact.

Those residents who are afraid of demons also have a strong sense of superiority at this moment.

So what if they were demons, didn't they surrender to their city lords? !

This is their master!

Praise Lord Laurent!
