Lord Era: I, The Strongest Lord Of The Abyss!

The battle within Boulderstone Town did not last very long, certainly much shorter than a traditional siege.

Although those dwarven Eternals resisted until their last breath, defending their homes with their lives and blood.

But in Wu Wei's war perspective, their acts of resistance seemed somewhat foolish and laughable.

Wu Wei, who reveled in war, felt that the other side brought less joy than the previous group of centaur warriors.

So these "uninteresting" dwarves ultimately led Wu Wei to choose to end the battle early.

——————————

"Heavens, what happened here?"

Billkin, who had finally escaped, stumbled onto the street.

However, he was not truly safe at this moment, because behind him, several impatient little devils were driving them on under Wu Wei's orders.

He was not the only one being forced out by demons; along with him were many residents who originally belonged to this town.

One after another, the residents of Boulderstone Town were driven by demons to the square.

And when they arrived at the square, they discovered that hundreds of city defense soldiers, or rather, the broken corpses of city defense soldiers, were lying scattered in the center of the square.

"Oh no, my poor Sabo!"

In a corner of the square, Billkin saw the corpse of his distant relative, Sabo, and rushed over, crying.

This guy, who was still lively and kicking half an hour ago, was now disfigured and incomplete due to a fall from a great height, mixed with the corpses of other city defense soldiers.

What, you ask how Billkin could identify this as Sabo when the other party's body was incomplete.

The answer is not difficult to guess.

After seeing an expensive dark gold ring on the corpse in front of him, Billkin called him Sabo regardless of whether the other party was Sabo or not.

While taking off this expensive ring, Billkin wept.

"My poor Sabo, I swear in the name of diamonds and gold coins that I will definitely avenge you!"

"I am irreconcilable with this group of damned monsters!"

At this moment, the greedy and cunning Billkin was not only speaking sincerely, but also expressing the inner feelings of the other dwarves present.

After experiencing the invasion of the monsters, although these dwarves temporarily lost their ability to resist, it did not mean that they had submitted to the other party.

The fire of revenge was burning fiercely in the heart of every dwarf.

But this situation was soon changed.

And what changed their situation were several special demons that Wu Wei had newly hatched, Demon Overseers!

Demon Overseers are mid-level demons marked as level 20 units by the Abyss Hatchery, and each one is extremely expensive to create.

Moreover, this is a tall demon whose size is not much slimmer than a Imp Matriarch.

Not only do they each hold thick whips in their hands, but although they have humanoid-like upper bodies, their lower bodies are messy.

Some Demon Overseers have lower bodies similar to crocodiles, with thick limbs and slender tails.

Some Demon Overseers have lower bodies like deformed centaurs, while others have no limbs at all, with only countless thick tentacles carrying their fat bodies forward.

However, their ugly appearance is not the reason why they are called special demons.

What truly makes Demon Overseers special is their unique ability to rule and enslave!

Each Demon Overseer can semi-independently rule an entire territory.

They can use their own abilities to rule hundreds or thousands of slaves belonging to them, and drive these slaves to complete the orders issued by their lords.

Whether it is mining, planting, or even more dangerous and deadly work, the slaves belonging to these Demon Overseers will far exceed other demons in work efficiency.

This is not simply because the Demon Overseers use the fear of death to enslave these poor creatures. You must know that many times death may only mean simple liberation for them.

The real terror of the Demon Overseers is that they are very good at playing with human nature, or rather, very good at exploiting other people's desires.

————————

"Dear everyone, I need you to do me a little favor...."

At this moment, a Demon Overseer with a snake-shaped lower body was circling around the dwarves in the presence of many demons.

He spoke in a tone that was as gentle as possible, but still cold, while scanning everyone present with his evil eyes that saw through souls.

"Before leaving my warm and humid lair, the great Abyss Lord I serve gave me an order."

"That is, after taking over this town, to find all the valuable things for him, so as to expand my Lord's never-ending great expedition."

"So, I need to find all the valuable things in this town for this great Lord."

"Such as food, weapons, armor, and some unknown information and secrets~"

"But, I'm not asking you to help for nothing."

The Demon Overseer chuckled, looking at the dwarven civilians in front of him with a smile.

"Anyone who is willing to help me, I will give him enough preferential treatment in the infinite future."

"Preferential treatment? Bah!"

A dwarf spat and said to the Demon Overseer.

"Even if we die, we will not be your monster's lackeys."

"That's right!" "You're right, we won't be your lackeys!" "Go to hell, you bastard!" "Don't think about alienating us!"

These dwarves with stubborn bloodlines showed unprecedented unity at this moment.

Although they are currently unarmed, the pride of being a dwarf still prompted them to resist the temptation from the Demon Overseer.

The Demon Overseer was not too angry when he heard this.

On the contrary, he just stretched out his thick fingers and sent the few people who took the lead in refuting him to the surrounding little demons as food.

In the miserable screams of these dwarves, the remaining dwarves began to become silent.

The demons' torture methods are the most brutal and bloody in the infinite multiverse.

No one wanted to be a leader anymore, at least not now.

"Hehe, everyone."

"Don't you yearn to live, life is so precious."

"Don't you want to live a happier life in the future?"

"I guarantee that the lucky one who gets my preferential treatment will live a happier life than before."

"No matter what he desires, I can guarantee it."

The Demon Overseer's eyes swept over everyone present.

He had actually chosen his target, but he was still waiting.

Waiting for the other party to break through his bottom line and join his side.

"Look, the beautiful girl among you, he can choose at will."

"Those among you who have grudges against him will be liquidated by him."

"He can eat exquisite food, while others can only compete with rats for food."

"Even, the one who gets preferential treatment can still keep his wealth, the great Abyss Lord I serve doesn't care about this."

Many dwarves were shaken when they heard this.

But it was just shaken, after all, these people were still people in the civilized world a few hours ago.

Morality and glory are still their constraints.

So no one here will easily sell their soul.

Until...

"Oh~"

The Demon Overseer smiled even more happily when he saw this.

"I almost forgot to say."

"Only the first one to stand up will have the opportunity to enjoy the treatment I said, and the others will become mere slaves....and food!"

"Tick."

"Tock."

"Tick."

Just as the Demon Overseer with the snake tail imitated the sound of a clock, he looked at the dwarves in front of him excitedly.

Finally, the first person to sell his soul appeared.

Billkin.

He is about to become the first person to sign a soul contract with a demon.
