Chapter 1050: Chapter 46: Stealing from Others’ Bowls Bottomless Abyss, 45th Layer, Azgregate.
A dark environment, with everything around seemingly soaked in mist, a suffocating atmosphere enveloping this layer, making everything around exude a hint of pallor and granting all creatures an extra +2 stealth ability.
Rustling sounds came from the mist not far away.
Followed by a slightly unsettling friction sound, then one by one, grim worms with a diameter of about fifteen centimeters and a length close to thirty centimeters emerged. As they gnawed on the substances on the ground, they absorbed the power of the Bottomless Abyss, their heads with grotesque human faces. Although they didn’t make any sounds, these faces changed with the surrounding environment, displaying different expressions of agony.
Soul worms reflect some of the deceased’s appearances in life. Skilled Night Witches can judge if it was a powerful professional by the distorted human face, often able to sell such soul worms for a high price. (Skill judgement)
Soon, the sound of hooves echoed from afar.
As the gray mist dispersed, a hunched figure wearing a wizard hat and covered in a ragged robe appeared. Its pale hand held a bone staff, with a moving eyeball embedded in the center, uttering an eerie chant that caused the dense swarm of soul worms to surge forward.
Grazing.
Soul grazers of the lower planes.
——Night Witch (Grazing) (Four-star Silver Grey).
In the Bottomless Abyss, do not provoke grazers easily, for most of them are high-tier beings, and the too weak ones will be robbed by demons.
The sound of hooves grew nearer, soon followed by a languid, seductive laughter from the gray mist, as alluring as a lover’s whisper. When a nightmare carriage appeared, the first to emerge were two Demon Guards walking in front, while beside them was a shadowy assassin demon moving in the carriage’s shadow, with only its icy eyes vigilantly watching everything around.
These were the convoy’s guards.
Meanwhile, on a snake tree on the distant forest, the surrounding snake heads hissed, as a Purgatory Raven screeched and quickly flew towards the deeper black forest.
"Master."
"A convoy of plane merchants has arrived."
The raven landed and spoke in human words, and an old witch inside who was brewing thick soup raised her head nonchalantly upon hearing this, "Is that so?"
The raven continued, "Looks like they’re wealthy plane merchants."
"They’ve hired quite a few guards."
The old witch lifted her head, a slight greed in her expression, looking through the raven’s eyes at the distance, momentarily saying, "Do not provoke them."
"Those guards are Blood War Veterans."
Their strength is quite formidable.
She never robs those fierce figures.
This plane convoy unexpectedly hired numerous Half-Purgatory Warriors, along with several mid to high-tier demon bodyguards, clearly from the upper layers of the Bottomless Abyss. Only on the Ten Thousand Abyss Plain are such powerful plane merchants found. Mainly because Abyssal Blood Wars often erupt on the first layer, and without strong bodyguards, it’s too easy to be robbed or forcefully requisitioned.
The nightmare let out a whinny.
Kroglas-Erosion sat motionless at the front, his entire body stiff, not daring to turn around, with only his hair standing on end. He tried his hardest to forget the lover-like whispers behind him, and not look at the extremely charming voluptuous figure laughing and flirting while sitting on a valiant man’s lap.
Seductive Demon Queen - Meikanshute.
She transformed into the guise of an Enchanting Mage, sitting like a concubine on Duncan’s lap, her bountiful bosom gently rubbing against his solid chest, her slender waist swaying gracefully, her sturdy legs wrapped around his waist as if clinging to a tree.
This gesture was truly somewhat recklessly bold.
Duncan’s appearance had also drastically changed, transforming into the semblance of a Half-Purgatory creature, a human-like Kambi Ong, with a pair of curling demon horns on his forehead, dark-red skin covered in magical markings, underneath were steel-like pectoral muscles, abdominal muscles, and bulbocavernosus muscles.
"How does the lord manage to stay composed?" Kroglas-Erosion admired inwardly, yet still dared not look back.
Life is precious!
Meikanshute’s transformative disguise ability is among the best on the lower planes. She can almost change into any visage imaginable by humans, and it is very difficult for other beings to see through. This plane convoy comes from the upper layers of the Bottomless Abyss, and Kroglas-Erosion is the apparent boss, while the Seductive Demon Queen disguised as a concubine, but completely disregarded his feelings, constantly clinging to the nearby Duncan, who had likewise changed appearance.
Kroglas truly feared they would suddenly spark excitement, leaving him in a position to neither descend nor remain.
No matter what, it seemed like bad luck was looming.
Pa!
A round fullness gently trembled, Duncan’s eyes narrowed slightly, his action absolutely relentless.
This bold move made Kroglas-Erosion’s heart race, but fortunately, the Seductive Demon Queen didn’t get angry, instead showing an extremely charming gaze, swiftly sitting upright back next to Kroglas, merely a glance enough to instill dread in this Kambi Ong merchant.
"There is someone ahead." The assassin demon’s whisper sounded.
Heavy footsteps echoed.
Duncan’s ears were filled with lover-like whispers, tickling his heart like a kitten’s scratch, as the other party whispered, "It’s the old witch’s messenger."
