As for the origin of Yin Lidan's demons, barrage netizens have different opinions.
Some people believe that these demons were originally Magtheridon's men, and turned to the enemy after Magtheridon was defeated by Yin Lidan and others.
Some people also believe that these demons are like-minded people recruited from the Twisting Nether by Yin Lidan through other methods, and have no connection with the Burning Legion.
The first thing that needs to be made clear is that "devil" is actually a very general concept.
In the perception of the people of Azeroth, as long as they are from the Burning Legion, they are collectively called demons regardless of their appearance.
But in fact, the Burning Legion is composed of countless different races.
The most well-known ones are the Eredar, Nathrezim (the Dread Lord), Anihellan (the Lord of the Pit), Shivalra (the Destroyer), Ereduin (the Doom Guard), Morg ( Demon Guard) and so on.
What needs to be noted here is that not all races that join the Burning Legion are clan dependents.
There cannot be only one voice within a force. Just as the Eredar split the Draenei due to differences in ideas, other demonic races also have members who disapprove of joining the Burning Legion.
According to the intelligence investigated by Sarlayan, most of the demons under Yin Lidan were specially selected by him from people of various races who opposed the Burning Legion.
However, there are exceptions, and that is the Mistress Shahrath in front of Sarlayan and others. She was originally Magtheridon's right-hand subordinate.
As a member of the Sylvara (Destroyer Demon), Shahrath, who has six arms, cannot compare with the strong Magtheridon in terms of individual combat effectiveness.
But compared to Annihlan, who has well-developed limbs and a simple mind, the Shivalla family is better at conspiracy and various weird spells.
When Magtheridon ruled the Black Temple, Shahrath became the leader of all female demons in Draenor with her smooth skills and considerable strength.
On the surface, Shahrath is very loyal to Magtheridon, but in fact, she has no regard for this empty-minded and self-righteous fool at all, and believes that there is no future in following Magtheridon.
When Yin Lidan led the Nagas, Undead and Broken Ones to attack the Dark Temple, Shahras immediately realized that the opportunity she had been waiting for for a long time had finally come.
The reason why Yin Lidan was able to defeat Magtheridon was that Shahras, an internal agent who took the initiative, also played a big role.
After defeating Magtheridon, Yin Lidan adopted Shahras's suggestion and did not kill Magtheridon on the spot.
After taking down the entire Black Temple, Yin Lidan imprisoned Magtheridon underground in the Hellfire Fortress, extracting his blood to strengthen the evil orcs, and at the same time used the pure shadow power obtained from Muru to suppress the side effects of demon blood corroding the will. .
In order to reward Shahrath for turning from darkness to light, Yin Lidan appointed the resourceful Shivalla as his chief staff officer, and her female demons became the guards guarding Yin Lidan's palace.
When Yin Lidan searched for members of the "demon" race from all over the Twisting Nether who were interested in resisting the Burning Legion, the female demons under Shahras also played a certain role in promoting them.
After all... they have food and sex, and those rebellious members of the major races collectively known as demons also have emotions and desires.
[Only Yin Lidan dares to entrust such a heavy responsibility to such a person who betrays the First Lord without hesitation. At least I don’t have as big a heart as him. 】
[Yin Lidan doesn't care whether you are loyal or not, as long as you can be used by him. 】
[Yin Lidan never bothered to use emotions as a bond to win over his subordinates. He valued actual interests more and used interests to bind others to himself. 】
[Then the question is, what are the interests of the demons, including Mother Shahras, who are willing to gather under Yin Lidan's banner? 】
[Who knows, let Xiao Sa go find out. 】
Sarlayan didn't have time to satisfy Danmaku's curiosity at the moment, he had other things to do.
Under the guidance of Shahras, who was very enthusiastic, Sarlayan and his party entered the Dark Temple and went deep into the core area where Yin Lidan was located.
When passing through various major areas in the Dark Temple, Sarlayan saw various races, including Nagas, Broken Ones, undead and demons, and some powerful evil orcs were also left behind by Yin Lidan. The Black Temple is stationed.
As the chief steward of the Dark Temple, Mother Shahras has a very high status, and no matter how unruly the devil is, she would not dare to stab her in front of her.
However, Sarlayan could tell that the people under Yin Lidan did not have a harmonious relationship with each other. They would not leave their assigned areas except for official business, and there was almost no communication between them.
But even so, they are willing to put aside their disputes for the time being and follow Yin Lidan to guard the Dark Temple together, and even fight in all directions.
'What kind of ecstasy soup did Yin Lidan give them? '
Mother Shahras introduced the various areas of the Dark Temple to Sarlayan and others with witty remarks along the way.
However, when she led the guests to a gorgeous palace, Yin Lidan himself was not seen in the palace.
A group of female demons are working together to open the evil energy portal, and Sarlayan can feel the extremely high concentration of evil energy from the other side of the door.
"Mother Shahras, what is this?"
Shahras explained with a smile still on her face: "Dear guests, please wait a moment. Lord Yin Lidan is using the power of Gul'dan's Skull to explore other planes. This round of exploration should be over soon."
There was a hint of surprise in Sarlayan's eyes: 'Did you start looking for the Sargrith Keystone so early? Really dedicated. '
Yin Lidan's lifelong goal is to destroy the Burning Legion and ensure the safety of Azeroth.
In order to achieve this goal, he has been trying to find the coordinates of Argus, the home of the Burning Legion in the Twisting Nether.
However, during the countless years of expeditions of the Burning Legion, the number of worlds they conquered has exceeded four digits. It is not easy to find Argus in the vast universe.
After taking down the Dark Temple, Yin Lidan was surprised to get a piece of important information from Shahrath, who was once a member of the Shivalla Witch Coven.
The best way to find the specific coordinates of Argus is to seize the Sargrith Keystone, which can open a portal directly to Argus.
As far as Shahrath knows, the Sargrith Keystone is stored in a broken world called Marton.
Marton was the exiled plane used by Sargeras to imprison the demons he defeated before his fall. It is a completely independent subplane.
Sargeras, who was still a Bronze Titan, once studied the nature of the Twisting Nether in Marton, hoping to find a way to contain the demons...that is, those races that control the power of evil.
However... when Sargeras discovered the more powerful threat of the Lord of the Void, he immediately changed his original plan.
After warning the Pantheon to no avail, Sargeras turned to recruiting demons into his service.
He released all the demons originally imprisoned in Marton, leaving only a handful of confidants to guard this broken world and guard the Sargrith Keystone that could lead directly to the back door of Argus.
In addition to Sargeras himself, even senior Burning Legion officials such as Archimonde and Kil'jaeden do not know the specific location of Marton, and Shahrath is no exception.
In order to find Marton, since defeating Magtheridon, Yin Lidan has been using the Skull of Gul'dan to open portals to other planes, trying to obtain more intelligence from the lackeys of the Burning Legion.
'If you say so...'
Sarlayan looked at Shahras thoughtfully: "Mother Shahras, since Yin Lidan often goes out, who made the decision to capture Mulu to extract the power of shadow?"
Shahras was stunned for a moment, then shook her head and said with a smile: "Duke Shenying is not doubting me, is he?"
"The order was personally issued by Lord Yin Lidan. We are just the executors of the plan."
A smile appeared in Shahrath's eyes: "I did make some trivial suggestions in this plan, but it was Lord Yin Lidan who made the final decision."
"Ha~"
Sarlayan smiled noncommittally: "I see, since Yin Lidan is willing to believe you, I, an outsider, won't say anything more."
For a while, Sarlayan really couldn't see Shahras's loyalty, but he believed that Yin Lidan would have a sense of proportion.
While Sharlayan and Shahras were chatting seemingly aimlessly, a familiar figure jumped back from the other side of the portal. It was the demonized Yin Lidan Stormrage.
"Oh~ I'm back."
Sarlayan waved hello to Yin Lidan, who was still stained with a lot of green blood, and said, "Thank you for your hard work, have you gained anything?"
"Huh~"
Yin Lidan, holding the double blades of Azzinoth in both hands, took a heavy breath and looked up at Sarlayan.
"It's you, you... hmm? Wait!"
Through the special vision obtained by the demon hunter's sacrifice of his eyes, Yin Lidan discovered that Sarlayan's aura was different from the last time he parted.
"You... broke through and became a demigod?"
