Chapter 2869
byFacing Yang Kai’s questioning, Fili said hoarsely, “Modo came very suddenly. None of us expected it. After he came, he began to deploy. I have been following him and didn’t have a chance to pass the news out.”
Yang Kai remained silent, which made Fili a little nervous. He didn’t know if Yang Kai would take out his anger on him because of the destruction of his tribe. Fortunately, not long after, Yang Kai asked again, “How much strength can Modo exert now?”
Fili heaved a sigh of relief and replied, “He was a little injured when passing through the boundary wall passage. At present, he should only be able to exert six or seven tenths of his strength. However, if he is given enough time to heal his injuries, he will become stronger and stronger and eventually return to his peak.”
“Six or seven tenths…” Yang Kai whispered ed, it seems that his guess is correct. Although Modo is comparable to the Great Emperor, he really cannot exert all his strength. But a Great Emperor with only six or seven tenths of his strength is by no means something he can contend with.
“My lord, I have been exposed and I’m afraid I can’t go back anymore.” Fili said.
This time he came out with four other Demon Kings. The four of them are all dead, but he survived and went back. If there is no Demon Saint sitting in town, it’s okay to say. After all, his own strength is also among the top among the many Demon Kings. But if he goes back and faces Modo, he may show some flaws.
“Yes.” Yang Kai nodded, obviously having expected this for a long time, “I want you to take me to Rapids Fortress.”
“Rapids Fortress!” Fili was shocked when he heard this and understood Yang Kai’s plan, “My lord, do you really want to kill three hundred thousand demons?”
“Do you think I’m joking?” Yang Kai glanced at him indifferently.
Fili shivered and said worriedly, “But there are more than a hundred thousand demons in Rapids Castle!”
In this one month, the number of demons killed by Yang Kai is enough to reach more than a hundred thousand. If we add the demons in Rapids Castle, it is indeed almost enough to reach three hundred thousand.
However, the largest stronghold that Yang Kai destroyed before only had ten thousand demons stationed. Moreover, because of his hunting everywhere, the demons’ defense line is now shrinking tighter and tighter. All the scattered demons in various places have been called to one place. Rapids Castle is one of the large strongholds. As far as Fili knows, there are as many as eight Demon Kings sitting there, and there are more than a hundred thousand clansmen. Does Lord Wu Niu dare to plot against such a terrifying place?
Yang Kai glanced at him and said, “I’m not alone either!”
Fili was stunned. He quickly understood what Yang Kai meant.
It seems that all the chess pieces that Lord Wu Niu planted among the demons are going to play a role.
Rapids Castle was originally the capital of a large tribe of the Barbarian Race. After the demons invaded, this large tribe was wiped out. Naturally, the territory was occupied. This place is considered the hinterland of the demons.
More than a hundred thousand demons gathered here, and the demonic energy gathered almost made this piece of heaven and earth turn black. With eight Demon Kings sitting in town and countless Demon Generals and Demon Marshals under their command, this place was built as solid as gold.
Because it is still in the hinterland, the demons here have not yet clashed with the aliens for the time being. However, the bloodthirsty and belligerent demons yearn to rush to the battlefield every day, wantonly kill those weak aliens, and capture this land.
Fili’s uninvited arrival made the eight demons sitting here a little surprised. However, Fili’s strength and reputation are there, so even though everyone was surprised, they didn’t show too much vigilance. Instead, they warmly received him and probed his purpose of coming here.
Fili kept his mouth shut about this, looking extremely mysterious, which made everyone dare not ask more questions. They suspected whether this was the instruction of Lord Modo.
The power demon Yura is also one of the demons sitting in Torrent Castle. In the eye contact with Fili, he understood a lot of secret information, which made the power demon a little nervous and uneasy.
Torrent Castle soon welcomed more demons.
The shadow demon Moketuoluo. The fire demon Levin, the snow demon Ashina…
In just three days, including Fili, a total of seven demons gathered here from all directions, making the number of demons in Torrent Castle suddenly increase to as many as fifteen.
This situation is extremely rare.
Modo descended on the foreign land. Under his command and dispatch, each demon has its own responsibility and territory to guard and will not leave easily. However, the arrival of Fili and others broke this rule.
Even the stupidest demon knows that something is going to happen.
Everyone made oblique inquiries about the newly arrived demons, and finally came to a conclusion: They were indeed sent by Lord Mordo, but no one knew exactly what their purpose was for coming here. Only Fili knew everything.
Fili stayed behind closed doors, making it impossible for others to start.
This kind of suspicion came to an end five days after Fili’s arrival. In the largest building in Rapidsburg, a total of fifteen demons gathered together. Fili, instead of being a guest, sat in the first place, and the ghost fire in his eye sockets was as calm as a pool of spring water.
The other fourteen demons were arranged on the left and right, sitting in the lower seats. No one made any noise or commotion. Every pair of eyes was fixed on Fili. Fili raised his head and said something astonishing: “There is a traitor among us!”
The great hall was completely silent. After a long time, a demon exclaimed in a low voice: “Fili, are you kidding?”
“Yeah, how could there be a traitor among us? What could the inferior aliens offer that would make us demons betray?”
“Fili, if this is a joke, it’s a very bad one.”
Several demons couldn’t hold back and shouted in a hubbub.
Fili said: “This is Lord Mordo’s judgment!”
The noisy crowd shut up all of a sudden, and their expressions became serious. Their eyes drifted left and right, carefully looking at every companion present, with a hint of scrutiny in their eyes.
If Philip said that there was a traitor among them, they could still laugh it off and not be willing to believe it. But if this was Lord Mordo’s judgment, then the problem was serious.
Lord Mordo must have sufficient intelligence and even already known who had defected before sending Philip here other words, there was really a traitor among them.
“Who?” Moccona’s neutral voice rang out. She was sitting in the seat to the left of Philip, wrapped in a mass of pitch-black aura, and no one could see her true face.
This sentence asked what everyone was thinking, and they all looked towards Philip. As long as Philip spat out the name of that demon king, he would immediately be jointly killed by the others.
“The one who knows is the one who knows.” Philip had a mysterious look on his face.
“Didn’t Lord Mordo give clear instructions?” A demon king heard the clue and asked with a frown.
Philip stood up and said, “Lord Mordo naturally has a way to solve it.”
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and pointed forward. Visibly, a vortex actually appeared in the void in front of him. That vortex was deep and dark, and even the demon kings present could not peek into what was inside.
“What is this?” A demon king asked curiously, seeing such a thing for the first time and feeling very strange.
Fili said, “This is something given to me by Lord Modo. There is a holy vessel that reflects the heart inside. As long as you stand in front of that holy vessel, it will be clear at a glance who the traitor is.”
Everyone’s expressions froze, and they were all shocked by Lord Modo’s means.
“Please go ahead, everyone!” Fili said lightly.
The remaining fourteen demons looked at each other, all a little hesitant, and no one was willing to be the first to take the plunge.
At the critical moment, it was the Shadow Demon Mokoto who snorted coldly, his body wrapped in black air, and stepped into the vortex in one step and disappeared.
Fili said in a timely manner, “Only those with a guilty conscience will hesitate to move forward!”
This sentence was a bit serious, making the remaining demons all look solemn. Coupled with Mokoto’s actions, no one dared to hesitate anymore and walked towards the vortex.
One by one, the demons disappeared. In a short while, all the demons had entered the vortex.
Fili also followed closely and stepped in.
It was still the same world as last time, without the sun, moon and stars, but the environment was very good.
When everyone saw Fili appear, a demon immediately shouted, “Fili, where is the holy vessel that reflects the heart? Why didn’t I see it?”
He wanted to prove that he was not a traitor, so he was a little impatient and didn’t think about the fact that this was a trap, and it was a trap set up by eight demons.
Fili didn’t answer his words. Instead, he turned to the demons such as Moketu and said, “The adults said that each person gets one. It’s time to prove yourself.”
The demons stationed in Torrent Keep were confused when they heard this. However, the demons such as Moketu and Levin had a solemn expression and understood what Fili meant.
The next moment, Moketu’s strange laughter rang out. She turned into a cloud of black mist and wrapped a demon closest to her. A shrill scream immediately sounded, making everyone’s face change slightly.
Before they could come back to their senses, the Fire Demon Levin, the Strength Demon Yura, the Snow Demon Ashina and others all took action. They each found a demon, looking as if they had a sworn hatred with them, and every move was fatal.
Except for Fili, the fourteen demons were divided into seven groups, fighting in pairs. The demonic energy was unrestrained, and all kinds of natural supernatural powers shone with extraordinary splendor.
The demons in Torrent Keep were suddenly caught in a great change and were a bit slow to react. However, in the face of the crisis, they naturally fought back with all their strength.
But no one knew why. There seemed to be a force in this world that suppressed them, making them unable to exert even 30% of their strength.
Facing the fierce Moketu and others, how could they be opponents?
One demon after another fell, their demon hearts burst, and they died without a place to be buried.
It was not until the last demon was about to die that he suddenly realized in surprise: “You are the traitors?”
Levin’s entire body was burning with flames, as if capable of incinerating all things in the world. The strange fire enveloped that Demon King, and he coldly said, “It’s too late to know now.”
Under the scorching flames, this Demon King only persisted for three breaths before being burned to ashes, and even that Demon Heart turned into flying ash.
After personally slaying a Demon King, Moketu and the others knew that they had embarked on a path of no return. Although they had previously been branded with a soul brand by Yang Kai and enslaved by him, that could be considered forced. Even if Lord Modo noticed, there was an excuse to explain. If they were lucky and Lord Modo was in a good mood, perhaps they could still escape disaster.
But killing their own companions with their own hands made it impossible for them to return to the Demon Race’s camp anymore. From now on, they could only go all the way to the end.
