Overlord: Start from the Goblin Lair

"This... logically shouldn't be said to be known to outsiders, especially mortals." The desire demon hesitated and gritted his teeth, "But speaking of it, this matter has something to do with you, so it can't be considered an outsider."

"Recently, during our battle with the Abyss, we discovered that abyssal silver weapons were circulating." The desire demon glanced at the crudely made "spear" on the ground, "It's not this kind, but after being crafted by demon craftsmen. refined weapons."

"Although it has not reached a large scale so far, when Yuan Silver weapons appear in the hands of high-level demons, they will still bring us considerable harm. In order to avoid further unplanned unnecessary losses, Zariel, who directed the bloody battle, The Grand Duke requested a thorough investigation into this matter, and I was one of the investigators sent to the abyss."

The desire demon carefully picked up the wooden pole of a "spear" from the ground, and raised the silver ore tied to the top: "This work should not be difficult at all. Most demons are mercenary and not long-term." Being a fool, I disguised myself as a succubus and easily deceived the trust of the merchant who sold Yuan Silver weapons, and also found out from him the location of the demon craftsman who forged Yuan Silver weapons. But just when I was about to pay a price. When I came to purchase all the Yuanyin weapons, an accident happened."

The red and black eyes of the demon of lust showed the fear engraved in the bones: "I don't know which demon lord's incarnation passed by, but he just glanced at me and made me lose all my pretense, even my strength. Most of them were taken away! Damn it, my informant never told me that there would be an incarnation of the demon lord wandering around at that time!"

"The craftsman naturally refused to trade with me anymore, and even called the guards to arrest me. In a hurry, I saw a weak space connection in the corner of his shop. At that time, I had no time to think too much, and I turned my head Crash into it, and then..."

"There is a group of babu demons here who serve that craftsman. They steal the ore from my mine and give it to their employer." Ron probably guessed what happened next, "But you are also a lust demon after all, even if If they have abyssal silver ore in their hands, they won't end up in such a miserable state, right?"

"Misery?" The desire demon smiled a little ugly, "My dear, the chasm I passed through is not only accessible to one person. There were at least six guards behind me trying to arrest me! If I hadn't spent a lot of money, The crack has just been sealed, and your fate will definitely not be better than mine!"

"Do you know how difficult it is to maintain a semblance of order in the abyss? Those guards are all the best among high-level demons. Just one of them can beat ten of me!"

"Are you bragging? Are you using this to show off yourself?" Sera curled her lips, "If the abyss is really that strong, how did you devils fight them until the outcome is indistinguishable?"

"Of course it's because they are naturally disordered," the desire demon rolled his eyes at the barbarian. "They are constantly fighting among themselves and fighting each other, and most of the methods are violent rather than conspiracy. They once captured Avernus, But because of their congenital defects, they are now almost driven out.”

"So, I have to thank you," Ron walked to the location where the abyss energy leaked in his memory. The new and slightly messy seal showed that it was only recently closed. "Tell me, there are still demons. Opportunity to break through from another level?”

"Impossible, this place itself is not a stable passage," the desire demon said with certainty, "Before you, there must have been mortals who colluded with the demons, and performing rituals from here will lead to the creation of rifts. As long as no more demon believers are allowed to It’s close, and the seal won’t break on its own for at least three months.”

At this point, a hint of cunning flashed in the eyes of the desire demon: "Of course, you can also leave this matter to me. I guarantee that no more demons will come here before you die."

"Of course, that's an additional price."

Everything it says is true. The seal will indeed not be damaged within three months. In fact, if there is no external interference, there will be no problems here for decades - the devil cannot be careless in dealing with devils. Just wanted to take the opportunity to make a fortune.

"Then we might as well discuss this issue again in three months," Ron did not respond immediately, "but I have a suggestion here: Don't you want to buy off the Abyssal Silver weapons from the demon craftsmen? Cut them off directly from the source. How is the supply of raw materials?”

"I have never made a deal with the devil. If I can find a good market for the minerals in my territory, I will be very happy."

"As for you, if the number of Yuanyin weapons is reduced, it is all your fault. I heard that both devils and demons have a unique promotion mechanism. With your achievements like this, you will be promoted..."

"Upgrade, Demon of Pleasure..." The Demon of Desire was indeed persuaded. Promotion not only means a more noble status, but also means that it can leave the boring hell and go to the material world to perform long-term tasks. If faced with such benefits, it If you can't be moved, you must be lying.

But, would a mortal really be so kind?

"Don't fool me with this trick," the desire demon snorted, "This is an old trick I have used for hundreds of years! Are you trying to use our magic to deal with me?"

"Whether it's magic or facts, of course you know best," Ron said, not in a hurry. "If you don't accept the deal and you dive into the abyss and are discovered, the result will be difficult to deal with, right?"

"Not to mention that you went to other planes during your escape. What you did during that time should also be worth investigating... For example, you went to one of the production sites of the Deep Silver Mine and turned a blind eye?"

"You are threatening a devil, a mortal. Do you know what the consequences of doing so will be?"

"I will work directly with your boss, and you will be thrown into the battlefield as a filler," Ron looked at the cowardly succubus with a calm expression, "Remember, Grand Duke?"

The trick is not new, as long as it works.

Thinking about the mountains of corpses and blood he saw when he came out of Purgatory and passed by Avernus, the fiery red on the succubus seemed to have faded a little. She pondered for a long time, and finally agreed to consider Ron's proposal: "Okay, what's your offer?"

Ron looked at Ivy for help, and the latter understood and immediately stepped forward: "We can process it into metal ingots first, with the same specifications as precious metals, that is, two kilograms per ingot (five pounds), and the price is set at 1,500 gold coins per ingot. What do you think?"

"Dang"

The succubus threw the "spear" in his hand to the ground, it dug its ears hard, and looked at the half-elf with disbelief.

"Say it again, how much?!"
