Tonas stood at the foot of the steps with some restraint, not daring to look up at the demon lord who was lying on the chair in front of her.
This demon lord is like an overweight worm, his arms have degenerated like two drops of snot hanging on his chest, and his four legs are too short to support his body. In fact, he usually can't support his body. It does not move by relying on its own limbs, but by the two pairs of exaggerated membrane wings behind it that look a bit deformed.
"Lord Gus, this is the new high-level demon we are talking about." Tonas lowered her head and handed the parchment recording Marn's influence to the demon lord.
Gus moved his bloated body, and his narrowed eyes revealed a dim green light. Then the parchment in Tonas's hand floated in front of him, and then his face full of flesh clearly showed desire. look.
"Is he in your hands?" He shook his fleshy body, looking like he couldn't wait to see this beautiful new demon.
It looks like it will work this time.
Tornas had already contacted several buyers, but they either had little interest in the deal or couldn't offer a particularly suitable price. Finally, she came to Gus.
But she came now not because Gus couldn't afford the right price, but because she was a little reluctant to deal with this notoriously cruel demon. Gus had a deep relationship with the demons and devils in the Paradise Path, but he didn't It's not like they pursue pure pleasure, nor are they keen on physical contact.
Gus also has a unique pursuit of "beautiful" things like those blissful demons, but he enjoys destroying and ravaging these beautiful things even more, watching them slowly collapse and be destroyed physically and mentally.
Therefore, when he rises up, he will often unscrupulously kill the demons around him who are weaker than himself. Even though they are talking about business seriously now, Tornas is still a little afraid that the other party will suddenly go crazy.
Thonasi answered cautiously:
"No, we did not arrest him directly, but we are tracking him. It only takes a little more time to figure out his specific location, and according to our observation, he may not notice the problem for a few days."
A small badge floated out from under Gus's slimy body and flew into Thonasi's hand.
He said with some excitement:
"I'm very satisfied with your goods. When you find him, use this to call me. Get the contract."
Tornas happily handed the contract to Gus and watched him sign her name neatly. The deal was successfully finalized, and the high-level demon would become Gus' toy for torture.
In fact, Tonas still had some sympathy for him. A high-level demon like him could actually become a demon lord in hell, and even if most of them died, they died at the hands of other demons. A death as painful and terrible as a lowly slave's.
This is also due to the current circulation of contracts. In fact, demons before contracts became popular did not like that kind of messy things, and preferred the simplest purely physical enjoyment.
But that guy's death was not unjust. How could he not even have the most basic vigilance? If he really had the potential to become a demon lord, he wouldn't have made such a stupid mistake.
Such so-called advanced demons are born to serve as stepping stones for other demons.
After completing the transaction, Tornas immediately left Gus's territory, got up and went to meet her companions at the agreed place. If the plan was correct, Su Wen'er was already waiting for her there.
Sure enough, when she opened the door and walked into the room, Su Wen'er was sitting on a chair impatiently, flipping through the book recording hell magic in her hand.
"Can you still read?" she joked, pretending to be surprised.
Su Wen'er closed the book in his hand:
"I don't like reading, but I know what works for me, how about that?"
Tornas smiled:
"It's done, where are you?"
Su Wen'er showed a satisfied look and then said:
"According to the informant, the little devil has been inquiring about suitable jobs for his new master these days without eating or drinking, and he seems to have spent a lot of money to obtain information."
The informant he mentioned was not a particularly mysterious guy. He was also a young devil who picked up trash in the new land. He usually only came to their area, and he could be considered friends with the little devil.
Tonas nodded slightly:
"When are you going to take action?"
Su Wen'er replied:
"Don't worry, the little devil doesn't have much ability, but he is quite cautious. He has not left the streets in the past few days, nor has he been to the alleys. However, I have asked the informant to sprinkle some bait for him, but not yet. Let go of him.
"It's not difficult to trick him out. By the way, what were you talking about with him?"
Tonas knew what he meant:
"We don't have to catch him directly, we just need to call the buyer under the right environment. The buyer wants to give our target a little surprise. Although this is the case, the price he gave is still very good."
Su Wen'er said in a somewhat complaining tone:
"You are still thinking too much. Obviously we can solve this problem ourselves. You have already seen that the guy doesn't even have the most basic awareness of precautions. It is not easy for the few of us to subdue him.
"The price will increase by at least half by then."
In Su Wen'er's opinion, this money was just for nothing. Although Ma En is a high-level demon, the newly-born high-level demon will definitely not be better at fighting than the experienced big demons like them, not to mention there are many of them. If it is true, You can also be prudent and hire a few thugs temporarily.
He saw no reason not to take matters into his own hands.
Tornas asked helplessly:
"You are indeed right. I also intuitively feel that he is not simple, but all high-level demons cannot be really simple, and they are also very fragile when they are just born. Maybe only you can defeat him, so It's really not that hard to do if we want to get it done.
"But the question is how many times can you make a mistake?"
Sulven said with some dissatisfaction:
"We're not going to make mistakes, and that guy probably wouldn't be able to hold on to me for half a minute."
Thonasi looked into his eyes and said:
“The answer is once, we can only make one mistake.
"Of course you can take this trivial risk to attack him, and we will catch him successfully in the end, and we can also handle everything with the same attitude, and we will succeed countless times.
"But in the end we will lose once, only once, which is incomparable to our countless successes, but just this one time is enough to end our short life, dying as insignificantly as other demons.
"What do you really want, is to be able to spend more money at this time...
"Or become a fearsome demon lord?"
