When the devil faces his own extinction

Compared with the demons trapped in Argus waiting to die, the demons in Twisting Nether are in a much better situation.

After all, facing the entanglement of Six Forces in Argus, the demons have to choose a way to die that they absolutely dislike among the suppression of other forces. Moreover, the road leading to Twisting Nether from that place has been completely blocked. Especially after Everything Unification Field is activated, the demons have no chance to escape back to their hometown and be resurrected by lottery.

Although there is no such thing as "resurrection by lottery" for the demons in Twisting Nether, if they die in this hometown, they are really dead, but at least they do not have to face the suppression and suppression of other forces combined at the same time.

Although Burning Legion has retreated to a precarious situation in the Material Star Sea, the devil still occupies a huge territory in Material World thanks to the continuous advancement of Burning Crusade over the past 20,000 years.

Even if it begins to collapse now, the demons' wealth is enough for them to squander it for a long time. Hey, we Burning Legion have a mountain of gold and silver that we can never spend all of!

And it stands to reason that before Material World's galaxy is recovered, those demon slayers should not focus their attacks on Twisting Nether's homeland for the time being.

But there are always exceptions.

A branch of Shadow Chasing Swarm, those brutal bugs calling themselves "Toranar" reappeared when Twisting Nether caught the demons off guard.

What a perfect time for these bugs to appear!

The regular Burning Legion demon army near this star area was mobilized to Argus for defense, and a swarm of insects came from the core of the star body to form a "central bloom" on the back foot.

The swarm commanded by Odachi Insectfolk appeared in six adjacent demon worlds in the Fel galaxy at the same time. It only took less than six hours to complete the transformation of the landing site. Then, in just a few days, surrounding those transformed demon worlds, another "Blood Warzone" suddenly appeared.

Compared with the "bloody battle" that shocked Twisting Nether a few months ago but took place in the edge galaxy, the target chosen by the swarm for the attack this time was more valuable.

The demonic worlds that initially fell were basically Burning Legion's main recruitment sites.

Although not all the demons among them may be members of the Burning Legion, but with the huge power of the Burning Legion, that star body has formed many powerful "Demon Courts". This is a "form of power" established by the demons themselves in the past many years with the tacit approval of the Conqueror Kil'jaeden and the promotion of the Shaper·Sarkir.

Its form is very similar to the mortal kingdom of Material World. Each demon court has a "king" who governs the four directions under Demon Lord.

Although the internal power structure is very extensive and no systematic demonic civilization has been formed, compared to the previous scattered social structure, the emergence of the Demon King's Court has obviously helped to improve the administrative efficiency of these recruitment sites.

Kil'jaeden obviously manages these important Burning Legion vassal worlds as "servant army strongholds" in a unified manner. In the past 20,000 years, in order to ensure that Burning Legion, the most terrifying war weapon, operates at all times.

The Conqueror has supported similar organizations everywhere in Twisting Nether, basically in the Fel star field where powerful demons were born.

According to the Conqueror's vision, every time these powerful demon tribes rule a new area, they must pay a fixed "blood tax" to the Burning Legion to ensure that the demons under their command Burning Legion always have the most advantageous sources of troops from the entire Twisting Nether.

Facts have proved that such a system is very suitable for the extensive demonic civilization. The "blood tax" system established by Kil'jaeden has indeed helped Burning Legion be invincible in the history of more than 20,000 years of war.

Of course, no matter what ethnic group it is, as long as the initial power structure is born, external expansion will become inevitable.

Even in the "ancient times" where there was no concept of the Burning Legion, the demons who had not yet been unified by Sargeras were constantly fighting with each other. Due to Fel's desire for destruction, these guys often began to instinctively look for enemies to kill when they were born in a certain world.

In that era, only the most powerful demons could leave the chaotic Twisting Nether and go to the weak Material Star Sea to hunt for destruction.

At that time, Sargeras was still the powerful and just bronze Titan, who was responsible for catching these dangerous demons who had smuggled in all over the world, and created a world called "Mardum" to imprison them. Everyone knows what happened later.

In short, with the continuous victory of the Burning Legion in the Material Star Sea over the years, the expansion of the powerful demon groups vassalized by the Burning Legion within Twisting Nether has never stopped.

They are like the roots that are spreading from under the big tree "Burning Legion", deeply inserted into the earth of Twisting Nether to absorb nutrients, and shape one prestigious "Demon King's Court" after another, thereby slightly raising the level of civilization of Twisting Nether, the paradise of destruction.

It is basically equivalent to the evolution from an irregular society to the "clan system" era in which different royal courts were formed based on different ethnic groups.

One point that needs to be emphasized is that Kil'jaeden created these Burning Legion vassals with no intention of helping the demons improve their civilization level.

It is an adjustment made entirely from the perspective of strengthening the regularization and combat effectiveness of the Burning Legion. The progress of demonic civilization stems from their inherent desire to conquer. The emergence of the Burning Legion only gives them an opportunity to force unity.

But no matter what, the seeds of change were planted the moment the Conqueror integrated Burning Legion.

At present, the raging Toranar Swarm caused a very powerful Demon King's Court to be destroyed in a short period of time. When this force saw that there was nothing they could do, they desperately sent the last army of the King's Court out to seek reinforcements from the neighboring star system.

Generally speaking, this kind of thing should be reported directly to the Burning Legion, and the Burning Legion commanders will assign troops to join the battle, but the situation is not quite right now.

With the death of the Conqueror and the most stubborn, brave and determined demons it summoned at the last moment in the battle of Argus, Burning Legion suddenly split into many different "circles" without sharing contact with each other. This made the demons who were attacked not knowing who to report to if they wanted to ask for help.

Burning Legion's management system seemed to have collapsed overnight.

The loss of unified scheduling made it impossible for the demon Burning Legion closest to the battlefield to go in time. Therefore, in the Burning Legion system, the mobilization of the Fel fleet required Command Council's permission, but all the Greater Demons of Command Council died on the Argus battlefield.

The fleet commanders parked in the Twisting Nether starport did not receive the war warning of the "reappearance of the swarm". They also knew that they needed to carry out strategic countermeasures immediately. However, the problem is that each fleet commander in each starport now receives an average of more than a dozen orders from the Demon Lord.

Each of the lords who have heard of or have not heard of it declares that they are the orthodox heirs of the Conqueror, and every great Demon Lord who claims to have "Burning Legion inheritance rights" will issue completely different orders to these fleets.

Even if the fleet commanders really want to execute the order, they have to wait for the big Demon Lords who give the orders to fight among themselves to confirm who is the strongest before they are qualified to command these fleets to realize their ambitions.

The most important question is, you big Demon Lords who occupy different star bodies have ambitions, don't the demon commanders who control the fleet not have the same ambitions?

Anyone who can be a fleet commander is definitely a "smart person" among demons.

They have realized that Twisting Nether is about to completely change, so they held an internal meeting first to separate themselves from the shaky Burning Legion system with the ultra-high execution capabilities inherited from the "Burning Legion Era".

Whether it is docked at Twisting Nether or cruising at the Material Star Sea, the Fel fleet is now its own group. These guys are ambitious and want to rely on the fleet in their hands to rebuild their own Burning Legion after the collapse of the Burning Legion.

In this chaotic era that follows, the first thing to do is to preserve strength and seize territory. Therefore, fleet commanders can only respond with regretful "comfort" to the requests of those who were attacked by the insect swarm.

They are demons!

To expect them to be sympathetic is an absurdity.

Without fleet support, the demons of "Blood War Sector" can only use the most primitive portal tactics to go to the battlefield.

But the power of the insect swarm has become established, and the army sent by the demons through the portal cannot hold on for even ten minutes, and will be completely destroyed in the brutal massacre of the insect swarm. What is even more frightening is that after "digesting" the first demon king's court, Toranar Swarm has no intention of stopping.

Like hungry beasts, they immediately began to plunder other Fel worlds around them. The Leviathan mothership of the swarm swaggered across the sea of demons. The demons who had lost their control and were trapped in their respective stations could do nothing but launch a desperate attack on the swarm.

At this critical moment when several demon kings around had a premonition of "the end is coming", a news like a bolt from the blue came back from Material World.

Dark Titan failed!

When Sargeras was fighting Lord of Dawn Diakum on the battlefield of Argus, he was plotted by other forces, resulting in his defeat and disappearance on the battlefield.

Although Sargeras has not yet fallen, Twisting Nether's power system has completely collapsed.

The authenticity of this news was quickly verified. Each demon court sent its own Warlock to spy on the coordinates of Material World's so-called "Dark Titan's fall". Those Warlocks brought back news that frightened all Demon Lords.

The battlefield of Material World has become a ruined ruin. The black hole of the Force left by the collision between Arcane and Fel remains there. Even the space structure of the star sea has been chopped into pieces.

That is definitely the place where Dark Titan fought with all his strength!

Although the demons Warlock did not find the remains of Lord Sargeras, they did confirm from the terrible aura there that Lord Sargeras was not the last one to leave.

That means the rumors are probably true.

Sargeras was defeated, and he was most likely imprisoned by the vicious Lord of Dawn in a cage that could not be found by any detection magic. He might have to accept some vicious and despicable humiliation of defeat.

There are also some Demon Lord who blindly believe in Sargeras Invincible and say they never believe that their Dark Titan will fail. Some Demon Lord in remote areas also say what nonsense Lord of Dawn. Bastards who don't know where they jumped out dare to claim that they defeated Dark Titan.

Isn't this obvious bragging?

And often at this time, someone else will remind them that "Lord of Dawn" has a more famous nickname after Twisting Nether, and that guy is "Light Butcher" who once made the demons fearful.

Hmm, if it's Light Butcher who has become a god, then it doesn't seem impossible.

This rumor, which made the demons despair, swept through all the demon courts in Twisting Nether within a few days like a storm.

Its rapid spread and wide spread are definitely not accidental. There must be some people behind it who are adding fuel to the fire.

However, at this time, Demon Lord people are really in no mood to delve into who is behind this, especially for the Demon King's Court who are being attacked by the insect swarm.

With the current invasion speed of the insect swarm, it is a question whether they can still feel the tidal wave of Twisting Nether tomorrow.

It was in such despair that things took a rather wonderful "turn".

"You said you could find reinforcements?"

In the place where the Proxima swarm invaded, in the world where the Demon King's Court is located, which is the closest to the bloody battlefield, the Lord Destroyer Witch who rules here looks at the uninvited "guest" in front of him with suspicion.

She narrowed her eyes and said:

"Where can you find reinforcements?"

"This is nothing you need to consider, madam. I only know that if you don't get effective support, Toranar Swarm will "eat" you within three days."

The guy disguised as a night devil said in a cold tone:

"Once they get the resources of this galaxy, the size of the insect swarm will expand at least five times within half a month.

The demons of Twisting Nether have no rational understanding of the "exponential" reproduction speed of the insect swarm. If this rate continues, within ten years, at least one-fifth of Twisting Nether will fall into the hands of the insect swarm.

By then, it will be too late for the demons to think about "unity".

What about me.

That's what I'm here for."

The guy shrugged and said to Destroyer Witch in front of him:

"I can help your court contact at least one standard-sized Fel fleet. I also have contacts in the five nearby demon courts, but the prerequisite is that you take the initiative to make requests to other lords.

Your stance must be quite low, drag them into this quagmire first, and then use your wisdom to eliminate your competitors with the help of the insect swarm.

Swallow their resources and integrate their royal courts.

I will find a way to bring you a powerful Man'ari Fel Warlock. With their support, you can call yourself the legitimate heir of the Conqueror!

Recruiting former Burning Legion members in the name of "Blood War" and rebuilding Burning Legion according to Kil'jaeden's system.

You must block the expansion of the insect swarm in this direction in order to accumulate prestige among the grassroots demons. My brothers and sisters and I will naturally brag about your achievements in Twisting Nether for you.

I suggest that you learn from the mortal kingdom of Material World and start building your own power system from now on. Otherwise, no matter how glorious your victory is, it will be nothing more than a dream."

The Destroyer Witch lord bared his teeth.

As one of the few intellectuals among demons, she knew very well that what the guy in front of her said was correct and necessary. She just doubted whether it was necessary to form a "national concept" among demons with chaotic nature.

However, the "guest" in front of her obviously did not intend to talk too much with her. What is certain is that she is just one of its "options". If she does not intend to obey, then this guy will repeat what he just said to several lords of the Demon King's Court nearby, and there will always be fools who will take the bait.

If that's the case, then why can't you eat the crab yourself first?

She hesitated for a moment, then got up from her throne, walked to the mysterious guest, walked around it a few times, and said:

" The news of Dark Titan's defeat was released by you and your companions, right? You want to use this news to scare those cruel but brainless guys so that you can fish in troubled waters. Hiss, this is a familiar method

you are

Nathrezim?"

The silent visitor showed a strange smile, shook his head and said:

"You don't have to care who I am or what my purpose is. Of course I have my own purpose, but it doesn't conflict with the desperate situation you are struggling to survive at this time.

We can cooperate.

We just need you to do one thing for us when you become fully fledged in the future. Take your army to help us go to a dangerous place and save a noble person who means a lot to us.

To this end, we will give you Consecration all our wisdom and strength. So, deal? Mother Shahraz, oh, no, I should probably humbly call you "Devil Queen·Shal'Ras".

The era of the Burning Legion is over.

The next era will definitely belong to the brave and wise. There is no shortage of courageous young people among Twisting Nether demons, but leaders who control wisdom like you are hard to find in the world."
