Chapter 1030: Chapter 39: Total Control (Part 2) It cannot block, nor does it have the direct cutting or stabbing damage. No matter how well it is wielded or fiercely swung, space must be utilized, and with Duncan’s explosive power, he fears no soft weapon.
However, the King of the Gnolls, Yenogu, is more troublesome as it uses an exotic weapon, a three-headed chain flail.
Duncan needs the assistance of the Red Robe. On one hand, it is to use her to constrain some of the enemies, and on the other, it is difficult for him to mobilize the Enchanting Demon Legion. At least before he has enough prestige and Legendary Level in the Abyss, Duncan needs the Red Robe to command the army on his behalf.
Inside the palace.
After Duncan’s figure left, the Queen of Enchanting Demons also fell into deep thought.
"Queen."
"Do you really believe that mortal has such power?" asked a radiant nun softly.
Meikanshute greatly favors the enchanting demons, allowing them a little capriciousness.
Lately, the mood of the Queen of Enchanting Demons has been really bad because one of her beloved enchanting demons fled, rumored to have headed to the City of Marks, pledging allegiance to the fallen lady.
Once entered the City of Marks, even she is powerless.
The Queen of Enchanting Demons rose slowly from the throne, speaking in a steady voice: "What harm to try?"
As she spoke, she rubbed the gem on her chest, and suddenly a dreamlike creature appeared, born from the ashes of divine spirits, vanquished and enslaved by her.
——Fallen Demon Spirit (Lomala Demon) (Otherworld-like Divine Attendant) (Five-Star Silver Grey).
She was nurtured from the residue of a goddess of love and art, a conquest tasked with much effort by the Queen of Enchanting Demons. The entity has no physical form and can directly possess other beings.
"Go."
"Surveil that man," the Queen of Enchanting Demons ordered slowly.
The demon spirit, resembling a Nightmare Banshee, bowed respectfully and then vanished from the spot.
Long ago, there was a demon lord named Greeder in the Bottomless Abyss, enemy to Di Maoge Gen, whom the Demon Prince deceived into fostering faith among mortals, but that territory was already governed by a complete pantheon.
The church established by the Greeder inevitably conflicted with this nameless pantheon, prompting the demon followers to use the simplest solution.
Massacre.
They slaughtered every priest within the entire city.
Consequently, the pantheon immediately retaliated, collectively descending upon the Abyssal layer governed by the Greeder. Foolish and arrogant divine spirits directly attacked the Bottomless Abyss, compressing the layer into a human-sized sphere using divine power.
Unexpectedly, the cunning demon lord was indeed trapped.
Yet this provoked the most terrifying entity, the Abyssal Will.
What caught the nameless pantheon off guard was the Abyss itself retaliated against their actions.
As they were about to project the compressed sphere into the Astral, the Abyss was infuriated!
The stripped layer was left only with an endless void, like a ravenous beast awakening from slumber, launching an aggressive attack on the divine spirits who dared inflict such severe harm.
In a flash, every member of the pantheon was shredded into pieces, leaving only the memory and nightmare of the pantheon.
The void layer is now called the Nightmare Abyss, with the pantheon’s nightmare transformed into a new demon——Lomala.
This is the sole direct action of the Abyssal Will.
Within Tanari demon’s genetics lies insect race genes, enabling advancement and transformation into demonic forms. Thus, to some extent, the Abyssal Will functions like the Hive Mind, chaotic yet consistently commanding all demons.
The Queen of Enchanting Demons, Meikanshute, is concentrating on the divine position of [Fallen], secretly manipulating some fallen demon spirits and nightmare demon spirits during this period.
Dimension Space, projection page.
Duncan observed the illusory demon not far away, expression unchanged, merely marking it silently.
This is the live audience.
Though the Queen of Enchanting Demons hasn’t arrived personally, she monitors the situation in real-time through manipulated fallen demon spirits, seeking to revoke Duncan’s authority to minimize losses as needed.
How could she easily trust a mortal?
This fallen demon spirit resembles the prayer of divine spirits, nearing the level of Otherworld-like Divine Attendant, a carefully crafted product by the Queen of Enchanting Demons to serve as a future reserve Fallen Divine Attendant.
A Nightmare Banshee-like supervisor.
Duncan pretended not to notice her presence, converging with the Red Robe, and promptly selected a demon legion of six hundred from Shadella. Don’t assume Abyss demons can be casually consumed; each transformed demon is refined from souls stolen by the Queen’s arrangement.
The promotion rate of demons is less than one percent; this elite force requires hundreds of thousands of quality souls for cultivation.
"Three hundred Enchanting Demon Warriors."
"Two hundred Enchanting Mages."
"And several other types of demons, along with enslaved monsters."
The Queen’s army never wins by scale; appearing as only six hundred, but during actual combat, the situation may differ.
Duncan entrusted commanding rights to the Red Robe, merely instructing: "Gather cannon fodder."
"As much as possible."
Ordinary enchanting demons possess weak combat ability, challenge level of only 7, roughly three-star in strength, but they boast an astonishing 26 points innate charm.
