Two weeks later, the ruins of the ancient dragon, the manor where the former demon lord Gus once lived.甔
Marn was staying in the deepest basement of the manor, quietly waiting for the little devil to come back.
After killing Gus, Marn not only came here and directly snatched away his remaining property, but also dealt with all the demons who knew of his existence, including Sulven and Tonas' original followers.
Now that no one in Hell knows he's ever been here, that should work.
Although the man behind the scenes is mysterious and powerful, the earth should not be his home field after all, and the man behind the scenes used what he had done before to drive the Federation to fight against him.
According to Kaliya, a member who was lurking through the Federation, the method used by the mastermind behind the scenes was to use a well-known abnormal item called a "history page" to learn about himself, and this method was not suitable for real-time monitoring.
Now the only remaining meaning of the mastermind's grasp of his traces is to prevent himself from finding him, so as long as he can delay the time for him to notice him, it is enough. He just wants to find his traces.
That's why he chose the little devil as his "subordinate". As a hell creature, this boy did not possess any particularly powerful power. Although his mind was reasonable, it was certainly not the best.甔
But Ma En doesn't need these qualities. All he wants is to investigate who has recently made a deal with the Dragon Mother. The little devil has a quality that other devils are basically impossible to have, and that is basic "loyalty."
This kind of loyalty is of course not based on their relationship and emotions, but relies on the little devil's ambition, hatred, gratitude and other emotions. Of course, the most important thing is his respect for his own power.
At that time, Ma En chose that moment to go in and save the little devil. In fact, it was because if he continued like this, he would really succumb. He did not have "loyalty" to himself in the usual sense.
But even this kind of abnormal loyalty is still loyalty. In fact, most of the so-called "loyalties" in the world are not much better than the little devil's to him. After all, it is abnormal for a person to be "loyal" to another person.
In fact, what Ma En needs is not the kind of loyalty that can kill him. Under the premise that he can give and take back the power of the little devil, and can also monitor him, what Ma En wants is that he can sincerely do things for him. .
But in a place full of betrayal like hell, even this level of loyalty is not available, and if they encounter a trap left by the mastermind behind it, they may not even have the courage to face it.
Of course, in the end, he chose Little Devil for more than just these reasons. It was because he actually wanted to leave a "branch" of the Anomaly Control Bureau in hell, and Little Devil was where he was.甔
Therefore, Ma En also values a characteristic of the little devil that is particularly rare in hell - that is, although he is a devil, he has not done much evil at all, and he has not even killed anyone.
Of course, this is not because the little devil is so kind, but because after going to hell, he was either deceived or bullied by Su Wen'er and the others. He had no chance to resist at all, but this level was just right. ….
If the little devil is completely bad, it may be difficult to get along with other Bureau employees. And if he is really so kind, he will probably not survive a few days in hell, and he will definitely be constrained in doing things.
But while Ma En was waiting, he suddenly received news from Qin Lan.
[There seems to be some movement in the Werther Castle in the Southern Federation. Should we send someone to investigate? 】
Marn immediately gave her a negative answer. Castle Werther was an anomalous building that he had housed before, and it also had a passage connecting to the Titan ruins. However, after he had enough employees, he assimilated the anomalous properties of this building into the control bureau. There, there is no use for it now.
However, after completing the assimilation and having suitable spare manpower, Marne sent employees to monitor the activities around Werther Castle from a safe distance, because it was also related to a southern god.甔
If he notices the changes in this castle, he will inevitably not think about himself. If anyone really comes into contact with this castle again, it means that he can
Neng has been targeted by Vulcan.
But at this point in time, Ma En felt that something was wrong. He almost instantly thought of the "truth" - the mastermind behind this should have taken action against him again, and this time he found the gods of the Southern Federation.
However, this news was not particularly bad. On the contrary, Ma En felt a little relieved after learning about it. Whether he knew it or not, the mastermind behind it was definitely planning to deal with him. It was definitely a good thing to know what he was doing.
And to be honest, he has no fear of the gods of the Southern Federation. These gods cannot leave the prisons designated for them by the Titans. As long as he does not enter the Southern Federation, they will not be in particular danger.
Now they have no other bargaining chip that can threaten them, nor can they use anything to force themselves into the Southern Federation or anywhere like last time. Therefore, it is actually quite difficult for Ma En to imagine how the mastermind behind the scenes can use the southern gods to deal with Own.
If it had been anyone else, Ma En might have felt that the other party was at the end of his rope. He felt that the gods of the Southern Federation were the last group he could find that he could use, and he didn't feel that he would be in any danger.
But he didn't think so. After seeing that guy's methods, Ma En had extremely high respect and vigilance for this unknown enemy, so now he actually began to worry about how the other party would use these restricted Southern Federation states. God deals with Himself.甔
No matter what, he had to speed up.
The excited voice of the little devil came from outside the basement:
"Master, the mission you gave me has made new progress!"
The demon boy quickly pushed the door open and walked in. At this moment, there were a pair of small bat wings behind him, the two short horns on his forehead had slightly lengthened by a few centimeters, and the two tiger teeth had become particularly sharp.
But even so, when seeing his demon, it is difficult to think that the little devil is actually a demon lord. During the few days when the little devil was looking for a job for him, Ma En took the time to choose a demon lord and extract the abnormal characteristics.
While giving it to the little devil, he naturally became an employee of the Control Bureau, but Ma En did not let the little devil retain the memory of the Control Bureau and how he got the power, only ensuring that he knew that the power was still under his control.
After gaining power, the little devil basically recruited Gus's men. Ma En also specially made up a story about a weak counterattack that was difficult to distinguish between true and false, and it spread in the ancient dragon ruins.甔
"What's the progress?" Marne asked.
The little devil said happily:
"I have already obtained the list of people who met the Dragon Mother. All the demons who did not enter the palace through the back door during that time should be recorded here. I only used half of Gus's property to get this."
With that said, he handed a few notes to Ma En.
