Episode 14: Demons Chapter 5: The Demon Medal

The Black Dragon Tribe is located in the mountain range where the highest peak is like a sword piercing the sky. At the top of this mountain peak is situated an ancient black castle, this black castle is built by the ‘black Yu stone’, legend has it that the owner of the black castle is very fond of the black Yu stone.

“Whew!” The black-robed man known as ‘Devil’ indifferently looked down at the panicked Black Dragon Tribe residents below. He then flew directly towards the black castle. The gates of the black castle were wide open. Immediately, someone respectfully introduced the devil inside.

And when the large number of residents of the Black Dragon Tribe saw this scene, they all couldn’t help but murmur.

“The demon actually went to meet the patriarch, it won’t come to kill the patriarch.”

“Your original body is a six-eared donkey, even if you become a god you’re still stupid. You don’t think about it. If that demon really came to kill the patriarch. Would the Matriarch still send someone to open the castle and respectfully let the demon in? I think the Chief must have something important to do. Only then would he go and invite a demon over.”

The residents of the Black Dragon Tribe talked amongst themselves.

Halfway up the mountainside. Linley sat on a rock and listened to the murmurs. His brows couldn’t help but furrow as he tilted his head towards the black castle that was atop the peak of the tallest mountain, which was still surrounded by dozens of black dragons circling around it.

“The owner of this black castle. It’s the patriarch of the Black Dragon Tribe, ‘Stoughton’, the strongest earthly existence of the Black Dragon Tribe!” Linley said silently in his heart.

Having come to the Black Dragon Tribe for two months. Linley still had some knowledge of the Black Dragon Tribe. This Black Dragon Tribe. Although it was only a small, insignificant tribe amongst the countless tribes in ‘hell’. But just such a small tribe. There is also a strict hierarchy.

The lowest. Naturally, Linley and the others were the poorest of the Underdarks, they had no income. They didn’t have any income, nor did they have anything to fall back on.

The middle ground. That was the gods who herded the black dragons of the Galed, after all, there were only so many black dragons in the entire Black Dragon Tribe. Only a small portion of them could be herded, although most of the money from each herding had to be paid to the patriarch. However, breeding Garrard Black Dragons is still an extremely fast way to earn wealth.

The best thing is the clan’s army! An army made up entirely of Medium Gods and trained by Patriarch ‘Stoughton’. If one could become a member of the tribe’s army, the patriarch would bestow wealth upon them once every ten thousand years.

Halfway up the mountainside in front of the door to Linley’s residence. There were only Linley, Delia, and Bebe.

“That demon is so strong.”

Bebe exclaimed.

“The strength of a tribal patriarch. It can’t be weak either.”

Linley said thoughtfully.

Delia glanced at Linley. Then she said, “Let’s not even talk about hell, it’s the ‘Ye Murefu’ in the middle of this Zijing Continent, the Ye Murefu is more than a billion miles in circumference, and this kind of tribe occupying a mountain range area. That is simply countless.”

When one thought of the terrifying range of the Ye Murefu. One could completely imagine just how many small forces like the ‘Black Dragon Tribe’ there were.

In hell. A ‘force’ like the Black Dragon Tribe was indeed as weak and insignificant as an ant. There were too many of them.

“But… Even for such a Black Dragon Tribe. There are so many Mediate Gods, and the Patriarch, Lord Stoughton, although I’ve never seen him. But I think that he was able to become the patriarch of the Black Dragon Tribe. Most of his wealth has been accumulated in his hands. To be able to make it this far, he should also be an upper level deity!” Linley suddenly had some understanding in his heart.

In hell ……

God level that could only be considered an ordinary resident, I’m afraid that there would be one intermediate God in nearly ten God levels. And an upper level god. It was estimated that there would only be one in ten thousand God-levels. Although the probability seemed low. But when one thought about that huge base of Hell, one could think about how many Upper Gods there were! “This is what hell is. A hell of strong people!” A shudder ran through Linley’s heart.

“Boss.”

Bebe had a grass root in his mouth. Casually, he said. “My grandfather said. In a place like hell, refining a god’s lattice to become a god. It is impossible to have a high status ground. Only by becoming a god alone, and fusing the law arcana, only the stronger the strength. The higher the status can be!” Linley agreed in his heart.

“Linley, I won’t hold you back.”

Next to him, Delia suddenly said.

Linley turned his head to look at Delia. Naturally, he understood what was going on in Delia’s mind;Delia was the type of woman who was very strong. Linley couldn’t help but smile and embrace Delia in his arms, “Delia. Dragging me down? Speaking of which. Right now, of the three of us, I’m the only Inferior God, I should be the one dragging you down.”

Delia’s heart warmed. Why didn’t she understand that Linley, who actually had a Soul Defense Master God artifact in his possession. Definitely the one with the biggest variable amongst the three, once it exploded into action, if he encountered the kind of enemy that happened to specialize in ‘soul attacks’, Linley would be enough to grill the other party to death! “Broad daylight, you two, ah, I can’t watch!” Bebe screamed and covered her eyes.

“Little brat.”

Delia couldn’t help but curse with a laugh.

At this time. That silver-haired old man Parfait flew over from the distance. Seeing the Linley trio. Then he laughed aloud, “Linley, coming to our Black Dragon Tribe, how have you been feeling for the last while?” “Not bad.”

Linley immediately got up and smiled, “At least. We haven’t encountered any dangers.”

Parfait lamented, “Right. If a few of you were outside. Do you guys know …… that in this hell, there are too many of those halfway robbing gangs of robbers, and the average Mediate God or Lower God strength wouldn’t dare to walk the hell alone.”

“Not even a Medium God?” Bebe glared.

Parfait searched for a stone bench next to him and sat down, nodding his head, “Yes, Medium Gods can’t do it either. The bandit gangs in hell. They are generally composed of Medium Gods and Lower Gods, so you’re saying that a group of Medium Gods and Lower Gods can’t deal with a single Medium God like you. You’re saying that a group of Medium and Lower Gods can’t deal with a single Medium God? They have the advantage of numbers!” “Then, why don’t the Upper Gods become robbers?” Bebe continued.

“Haha.”

Parfait laughed, “The Upper Level Gods are considered to be truly superior in Hell. They then still need to be that dangerous robber? It doesn’t matter if it’s breeding an Upper Divine Artifact, or refining Divine Crystals. Or joining a great family to become a stalwart, it’s all enough to live a free life.”

Linley nodded slightly as well.

This was the same as in the Yulan Continent. Truly strong people. For example, some rank nine powerhouses didn’t bother to become bandits, but in the Yulan Continent, there were still some powerful people in some of the famous bandit gangs.

“Of course, there are also a few extremely powerful bandit gangs in Hell, and it’s only such bandit gangs that have an Upper God, however, even if it’s them, they usually won’t make a move against an Upper God. Who knows, how strong that Upper God is? After all, there’s a huge gap between an Elder God and an Upper God.”

Parfait lamented.

Linley, however, was extremely agreeable.

Such as that Sardista. Killed by Greenflame in a single move.

Such as that Adkins. In front of Beirut. In just two moves, the two major upper god doppelgangers were destroyed.

“In hell. Although there are many robbers. But there are three forces that they dare not mess with the most. One is the Purple Bauhinia Army!” Parfait was also enthusiastic about instilling some common sense content about this hell land into Linley and the three of them listened attentively.

After all, Linley was planning to travel to the Blood Peak Continent.

It was just that he wasn’t strong enough right now and needed to hold back.

“Violet Bauhinia Army. Understood.”

Linley and the three of them all nodded their heads, that was an army under the Lord God Hut. The strongest earthly army, who would dare to mess with it? “The second force. It’s the House Soldiers!” Parfait exclaimed.

“Prefectural soldiers?” Linley’s trio were puzzled.

“Old man. What the hell is a government soldier then?” Bebe asked in puzzlement.

Parfait said, “There are a total of 108 mansions in the entire Hell, and we also have nearly twenty mansions in the Zijing Continent, and each of them has their armies! Such as our Ye Mu Mansion. Naturally, we have the Ye Mu Army, and the army of this House is known as the ‘House Soldiers’! Within the boundaries of a prefecture, it’s good that they don’t mess with people. Who dares to mess with them? If they were to target them. Even upper level gods would be out of luck!” Linley and the others drifted off.

“The Zijing army and the government soldiers are well understood. Those are large armies, so what’s the third force you said bandits wouldn’t dare to mess with?” Linley pursued.

There was a hint of yearning in Parfait’s eyes, “That, would be demons!” “Demons?” Linley, Delia, and Bebe were all shocked and puzzled at the same time.

“Mr. Parfait. What is this demon?” Delia spoke.

Linley was also extremely curious in his heart;just now, he had seen a black-robed man fly into the patriarch’s land, the Black Yule Castle. When the residents of the Black Dragon Tribe saw that black-robed man, they called him a demon.

“Demon. It’s a title!” Parfait exclaimed, “They are the bravest and most fearless group of strong people in hell! Anyone who can become one of the demons, even if they wantonly wander through hell, there aren’t many bandit gangs who would be willing to go after demons.”

Linley’s heart stirred as he thought, “He’s going to the Blood Peak Continent. The journey is extremely long, and if one can become a ‘demon’, then there will be much less trouble on the road.”

Bebe and Delia had similarly thought of this point.

“Old man, demon is a title? How can one become a demon then?” Bebe asked.

Parfait said, “It’s not too difficult to become a demon, just go to any city, such as the closest one to us, ‘Emperor Wing City’, and go to Emperor Wing City. At that time, spend 10,000 inkstones to apply for a test mission, once you pass the test mission. You’ll be a demon! Uh, at that time, you’re only a one-star demon!” “Ten thousand inkstones. And still just applying for a mission?” Bebe couldn’t help but stare.

Linley also felt that it was too much.

These ten thousand inkstones weren’t that easy to earn.

“Did you just say one star demon?” Linley even asked after him.

Parfait nodded, “Demons are also divided into levels, from one-star demons to the most terrifying ‘seven-star demons’, it’s related to the level of the quests they complete. To be able to complete a seven-star mission. That is a seven star demon!” “However. Even the simplest test characters. It’s usually only possible for a Mediate God to do it!” Parfait lamented. “That’s still just possible!” “The things that demons do. That’s all the most dangerous ground, and they’re all the bravest. It’s the bandits who don’t want to mess with them, and most importantly …… the star level of the demons can’t be seen from the surface, a one star demon and a seven star demon, there’s no difference from the surface.”

Parfait said.

“Look at the surface. Look at what surface?” Linley asked.

Parfait smiled and pointed towards the black castle at the top of the highest mountain peak, “The demon who came just now, you guys didn’t notice, that demon’s clothes had a demon medallion on the chest. There was a demonic medal! This is issued for completing the assessment task, every demon. Every demon has such a ‘demon’ medal!” “It doesn’t matter if it’s a one-star demon. Or the most terrifying seven-star demon. They all look the same on the surface. Only after a special method can one judge their rank.”

Bebe frowned and asked, “Oh? How about the strength of that demon?” “I’m not too sure about that, but. The weakest demons are all Medial Gods, and the average slightly better demons. They are all upper level gods!” Parfait said, “So. Robbers don’t dare to mess with demons. After all, most demons are upper level gods! If one encounters a six-star demon, or the most terrifying seven-star demon. Even the most powerful bandit gangs would be doomed.”

Linley was shocked in his heart.

Of the demons. Most of them were upper level gods? The lowest were all Mediate Gods? It seemed. It wasn’t in the slightest bit lower in quality than the Purple Bauhinia Army.

Bebe’s eyes glowed, “You said that most of the demons are upper level gods, so how powerful is the most powerful seven star demon?” “Seven star demons, that’s simply the pinnacle of power in hell!” There was a hint of reverence in Parfait’s eyes. “An ordinary Upper God would have no ability to resist in front of them. Once they reach the Seven Star Demon rank, they will be uniquely named. For example, our Purple Bauhinia Continent. I alone know of it. It has given birth to ‘Silver Moon Demon’ ‘Purple Blood Demon’ and several other supreme powerhouses whose names have spread throughout the entire Hell!”
