Rebirth in the Soul Street: Becoming a Demon King in Another World

"It's the bloody cavalry!"

"The Spirit Demon King sent the Scarlet Cavalry to deal with the rebels. Gerald, you are fast. Go back and inform the king. This is a good opportunity for a counterattack."

"Okay! Be careful!"

Afterwards, Gareth and his two companions continued to quietly follow the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry. As they got closer to the royal capital, they also heard a lot of rumors about the royal capital.

First of all, the capital was destroyed, that is certain, but there are indeed many different opinions about the existence of the destroyed capital.

Some people said it was a giant vine beast, some said it was a beautiful vine queen, some said it was two weird guys, one black and one white, and of course, there are also those who said it was all three of them acting together.

"Too bad it's not the resistance," Gareth sighed.

In fact, the top forces of their Knights of the Round Table have always been stronger than those of the Spirit Demon King. What they lack is the grassroots strength and the backbone force.

It is clear that the Spirit Demon King is the invader. When they arrived, they even only had a bloody cavalry. But for some reason, since the arrival of the Spirit Demon King, lower-level knights have been constantly loyal to him, so that the number of his army has increased rapidly, and now far exceeds theirs.

Are they really willing to accept aggressive rule?

And the fact is, it is indeed the case!

Although this is a dream world, the Lord of Dreams is asleep and the world is running on a normal track. Ordinary people in the dream have real thoughts. If the dream exists long enough, they can even become real dream creatures.

Although knighthood sounds noble, it is actually a profession and class belonging to noble gentlemen. Especially in this world where the Eight Virtues of Chivalry are regarded as all that a knight has, non-nobles cannot get involved in the position of knight.

But no matter where it is, as long as there is a class distinction, the lower class will always be the largest group, because this is the stable structure.

In Merlin's magical world, the lower classes, civilians, and ordinary people, no matter how well they do or how outstanding they are, they call themselves knights... but they are not real knights after all, and are not recognized, and are even belittled and suppressed.

Perhaps they were used to it before Cao Yanling came.

However, Cao Yanling lit a lamp for them. The reason why they could endure the darkness was because they had never seen the light!

Cao Yanling simply broke the iron rule that "commoners cannot be knights", or in other words, he brought the rule that "commoners can be knights" to the surface.

It is as if, after entering the Pass, there are great scholars debating scriptures for me.

He simply started the invasion and broke the iron rule. Talents of all kinds flocked to him. He only needed to fight the wars and give civilians the opportunity to gain military merit. Everything in the rear logistics was well managed.

Yes, in the Spirit Demon Empire, you can become a knight directly by earning military merits, and the kind of knight is awarded by the king himself.

But Cao Yanling didn't understand what the specific system was. It was formulated by the guardian spirits and a group of local people. However, Yu Jin said that this system was perfect. As long as Cao Yanling's position did not fall, this system would never collapse.

Therefore, Cao Yanling felt that he was born to be a king, it was too easy for him.

Of course, the rapid development of the Spirit Demon Empire was also due to the magicians. Since the establishment of the Knight Empire, magicians have been suppressed too severely.

"Alas, there will be no resistance army." Kai also sighed.

Along the way, they met people who had a strong sense of belonging to the Spirit Demon Empire. Not to mention resistance, each of them wanted to pick up a sword to attack the Knights of the Round Table!

"Oh, stop sighing, it makes us sound like we've already lost." Lan Malok encouraged. "The king said that as long as we defeat the Spirit Demon King, everything will go back to the way it was, and it will even make our chivalry more solid."

Gareth glanced at Lanmalok. He wanted to say, "Just let it go, right?" But he was a knight, and his eight virtues of chivalry did not allow him to say such words. Even having such thoughts was a sin.

"Okay, be quiet, something seems to be happening." Kai suddenly signaled for silence.

In the forest in front of the three people.

"Ah, it's the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, let's run away!" Xia Ling said in horror.

Xia Ling had never actually come into contact with the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, but the glimpse she had of them at Thousand Machine Black Break was still fresh in her memory.

"We can't escape." Mu Li shook his head. "We must have been marked by something, otherwise they wouldn't have been able to find us so accurately."

Beyond the forest.

“We’re almost there.”

Cao Chun sensed the position of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry through the Blood Evil, and then began to give orders through the Blood Evil.

"Set fire, burn!"

boom!

In an instant, fire broke out from all directions, connecting into a circle and surrounding an area.

"Come on, add some ingredients!" Cao Hong chuckled, and demonic energy surged in, instantly dyeing the flames dark.

"Hahaha, no wonder the military strategists back then liked to set fires. It really is a joy to watch the flames burn everything to ashes." Cao Chun laughed out loud.

"Hahaha, that's true." Cao Hong also responded with a smile.

"These guys are just a bunch of unscrupulous thugs. What if the fire sets the whole forest on fire?" Lan Malok cursed in a hidden place in the distance.

"Lan Malok, calm down!" Kai said quickly, fearing that he would rush out now. "If we go out now, they will definitely turn their spearheads directly against us. With two demon generals and the bloody cavalry, we will definitely die."

Hearing this, Lanmalok finally calmed down. Knight Badde's bravery was not reckless, and he was not stupid, he was just angry.

rustling...

The dark flames, like ink spread by God, began to infect the forest.

After the evil flames passed, no grass grew. Iron hooves stepped on the charred earth, and the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry slowly closed the encirclement.

Finally, the last trace of fire went out, and a black spot appeared in the forest.

"Don't hide. You can't hide."

The Tiger and Leopard Cavalry have already surrounded the center of the burning area.

"Huh~Are you still not giving up?"

Cao Hong snorted coldly, swung the Demonic Spirit Sword, and the black sword light shot towards the center area.

boom!

Before the blade arrived, the ground exploded and a vine dragon broke out of the ground, with its tail whistling.

"Hahaha, boys, form a formation to block them, don't let them get away!"

Cao Chun laughed loudly, and before Cao Hong could, he raised his spear and rushed out. The bloody spear shadow flew into the air and headed straight for the dragon's tail.

"There's more than one, what are you trying to steal?" Cao Hong shook his head and looked at the evil spirit in the pit. Sure enough, it was the real demon.

"I told you, there's no way to avoid it, so just hit it directly. Why do you have to experience the comfort of drilling a hole to feel comfortable, right?" Huasha said venomously, then tilted his neck and looked at Cao Hong.

"Hey, we are the same kind!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a strong demonic energy surged out and transformed into demon claws that reached out towards Cao Hong.

"Your strength...is not enough!" Cao Hong raised his knife and cut off the devil's claws with one stroke.

"What are you so proud of? If I could use all my strength, I could crush you to death with one hand." Huasha suddenly became furious and shot towards Cao Hong.

"Huasha can't defeat the guardian spirit alone. You guys go and help." Xia Ling said quickly to Qingfeng and Li Xuanyuan, feeling very annoyed.

Brother Yanling has eight demon generals, which means eight guardian spirits. Also, who are these guardian spirits? How can I defeat them with eight guardian spirits?

Just when Xia Ling was feeling annoyed, a voice suddenly came into her ears.

"Hello, I'm the Fighting Soul Knight Gareth, and you're the brave man who saved the world in Nanshi City, right?"

On the way here, Gareth had naturally heard of the name of the savior hero, that is, the beautiful girl with three long-haired warriors.

"Huh?" Xia Ling was stunned and looked around.

He had heard of the Fighting Soul Knight, one of the Twelve Knights of the Round Table.

"Don't move. Keep moving. The other two Knights of the Round Table and I are nearby. We will find a chance to break the blockade of the Scarlet Cavalry. You are responsible for informing your companions..."

Gareth began to tell his plan, and Xia Ling listened quietly until the end.

"Why don't you just come and help us? With the three Knights of the Round Table and us, we will definitely win."

"We are knights. The honor of knights does not allow us to bully the minority with our numbers!"

Xia Ling was stunned. Are all knights so immature? Moreover, there are only three of them, and there are so many Tiger and Leopard Cavalry. How can they use their numbers to bully the few?

But she had no choice but to follow Gareth's plan and start notifying Li Xuanyuan through the contract, and then let Li Xuanyuan notify Mu Li in secret.

"Is it Linglu who you bullied?" Cao Chun's Blood Evil Spear flashed, and every shot was wrapped in the bloody evil energy, rolling and easily crushing the vines.

"Ao Mu asked me to teach you a lesson!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the shadow of the bloody demon Meng Ji appeared behind Cao Chun. He suddenly leaped up as if to tear the sky and the earth apart, and tore half of the body of the vine dragon into pieces.

Then, the spear pointed directly at Muli's shoulder!
