Overlord: Start from the Goblin Lair

Chapter 180 The Mage's Transaction

Constance's expression was a little strange when she said this, but no one thought anything of it.

The worship of devils and devils is certainly despicable, but it is not a "niche hobby". Occasionally, these cultists can even form armies to march around. Constance said that it is normal for her to have seen similar furnishings to this one. things.

"This guy is not an ordinary worshiper of the devil." Yelena looked at the notes left by the elf mage. As the only person here who can speak Purgatory, she is naturally obliged to act as a translator. "Well... it seems that he There is a reason why this place was built and committed to hell.”

"Even the reason is...sufficient?"

"What did he say?" Exuri brought the huge dragon head over, "Let me see, uh... what is written here?"

"Maybe you should ask your teacher to teach you Infernal Language," Yelena closed the manuscript and handed it to Ron. "The mage who built this place was not one of the elves who migrated with Saran. He is a scholar who accidentally discovered the layout of the Hyland Empire here. "

"Baron Green Marsh hired him and asked him to participate in many tasks, one of which was the forging of the Soul Forge. This mage borrowed some techniques from the northern barbarian shamans, as well as the knowledge given to him by his master, for Shaman Lan has created a powerful magical weapon that is almost indestructible. Its only weakness that can cause it to be damaged is the magical weapon forged by the barbarians."

When speaking of this, Yelena took a special look at the big sword carried behind Sera.

"As for how he met his devil master... that was when he first came here."

"The Baron of Green Marsh ordered him to lead a small team to explore the entire delusion. Out of pride in his own strength, the mage went straight into the depths. A green dragon stopped him and wanted to stop them from moving forward, but he proudly ignored it. The Green Dragon’s advice.”

"This incident was not even mentioned in the green dragon's diary," Exuri stuck out his tongue. "This is probably the elf's own imagination. The green dragon would not be so kind."

"I have no way of knowing the truth," Yelena said nonchalantly, "Anyway, judging from the results he recorded, he experienced a tragic failure."

"He discovered the ruins of an ancient civilization, and there were an appalling number of undead creatures in it. His team was completely wiped out in the endless battle. If he hadn't paid the price of a right arm, even he wouldn't be able to survive. Get out of there.”

"But that dangerous desperate situation was not without gain. From there, the mage discovered some clues about the reasons for the disappearance of that ancient civilization - some carapace fragments that did not belong to the material world, with the breath from the abyss on them."

"It seems that he has found a place where we are going." Sera stuck out her tongue and licked her chapped lips, "'Dealing' with the devil? Just what I want!"

"Don't get too excited. Even that kingdom has been lost long ago, and the demon that induced them must have evacuated early." Yelena poured cold water on the barbarians. "Even the mage found nothing. It's just some fragments of the Bewitched Demon's carapace."

"The Enchanted Devil?" Sera scratched her hair, "Why did you give it this name? Shouldn't the one with the shell on it be some kind of ruthless character who charges into battle?"

"That name sounds too girly!"

"The succubus likes you like this," Shadow Spirit glanced at Ron, and restrained her ridicule slightly, "Unlike the succubus who uses tricks to stir up the lust and desire of mortals and make them fall, the succubus is Another type of seducer. Despite their ferocious appearance, bewitchers are masters of deception and lies, using the power of illusion to conceal their true form and use magic to fulfill mortal desires. In this way, they reward those who succumb to their lies and tricks.”

"Sounds like the devil," Constance whispered. "Wouldn't this be robbing each other of mortals who are the targets of abduction?"

Yelena snapped her fingers with an ugly look on her face: "Although this statement is not correct, after all, devils will be more 'observant of the rules', and devils are completely chaotic and pitiful beings driven by their own desires. But this is indeed the case: Devils and demons have many types and powers that overlap, and they both require a large number of mortal souls. These and other reasons are the reasons for the bloody battle between devils and demons for many years.”

"What the devil calls 'lawful' often means distorting contracts and terms to create deals that are completely beneficial to oneself," Victoria snorted, "Okay, but even so, it is much better than the devil. After all, they There is almost no contract.”

"When the true face and true purpose of demons are revealed, they are capable and very willing to turn against them and resort to violence."

"So, this mage turned to the devil and tried to 'fight fire with fire'?" Ron used his language proficiency to compare the contents of the handbook with what Yelena said.

It's not that he doesn't trust the other party at all (although he doesn't really believe that much), but as a magician who signed a contract with the devil, Yelena's perspective must be slightly different from the facts. In comparison, Ron may be able to Gain a more comprehensive understanding of the entire event.

"No, it was the devil who found him," Yelena corrected, "A great devil who was once very powerful, but now has lost his glory and is extremely depressed - Moloch."

"Before my mistress came to Malborg, he had sat on the throne of the ruler of the sixth layer by virtue of his victory in driving the demons out of hell. However, like most of the great dukes of hell, including my mistress, his so-called "cooperation" with the Lord of the Nine Hells was nothing more than the fear of being deprived of his power slightly outweighing his desire to replace Asmodeus. Unfortunately, his desire overcame his fear, just as Asmodeus overcame him."

"Moloch's authority was deprived and he was sentenced to death-if it were not for the help of the plane gate, he would not even be alive now."

"As for his specific situation, what I know is only rumors: he is now trying every means to return to his original class, but he has lost everything. Now he can only bargain with mortals and exchange their help for the knowledge of the Nine Hells and other planes-this elven wizard is an insignificant member of all his mortal sponsors."

"He promised to steal a treasure of Saran for Moloch, and in return, he will obtain a lot of knowledge that should not belong to him."
