hell under construction

"Master Demon King, I...I want to try too..."

It was Melis who was talking, her family died in yesterday's lava lizard attack, and she was the only one left in their family.

In the past, she was protected and raised by her parents. Although her life was difficult, she was considered carefree, and she developed a timid temperament.

But just last night, all her pillars left her, and now, her parents no longer bless him, she can no longer shrink back, she wants to live well for herself and her dead family members, so, when Lord Demon King chooses to be responsible When she was alone, Melis mustered up the courage to raise her hand.

"What's your name?"

Melis didn't dare to look up at Damon, her voice was soft but firm: "Master Demon King...my name is Melis."

Damon nodded in satisfaction. He was thinking about whether to mention a few female demons as the person in charge. At this time, Melis recommended herself, and Damon immediately looked at this shy demon with admiration.

"Okay, Melis, you will lead four hundred demons to dig the aqueduct, the route is from the lava lake to the sky cave, and at the same time dig the reservoir near the lava lake, Achilles, you take the remaining demons We continued to collect rocks and black bamboo, and moved as much as possible to the vicinity of the aqueduct to speed up the construction. After Jack dug the reservoir, he joined Melis, and together you carried rocks from Achilles to fill the aqueduct."

After arranging the responsibilities of the three team leaders Jack, Achilles, and Melis, the demons had their own tasks and quickly started working in full swing.

Daemon called Asmodai: "Do you know anything that can hold water without leaking?"

The way to dig a canal is to divert water to the vicinity, but if you want to irrigate and compact the surrounding foundation with water, you still need to transport the water for a short distance, so you need a certain container.

Water is not something that demons often encounter, but magma can be seen everywhere in hell. Asmodai thought about it, and took out the pomegranate shell that he usually used to hold magma: "Master Demon King, you Look, is this okay?"

"This is……?"

Damon watched in a daze as Asmodai brought something like a turtle shell over. The diameter of the thing was about half a meter, it was as deep as an arm, and the shell was hard, but it was full of blunt horns, like a mutation. The shell of the long-horned tortoise.

"This is the pomegranate husk that I found specially. I usually use it to hold magma to clean the devil's horns!" Asmodai spoke highly of Daemon.

It is very common for magma to clean devil's horns in hell, because hell's devils are basically red-skinned, and devil's horns and wings have become the standard for judging whether a devil is handsome or beautiful.

Demon wings are generally only displayed when flying, which is relatively rare, but the devil horns are different, they are just above the head, very conspicuous.Therefore, in order to attract more opposite sexes, some demons always make their horns smooth and beautiful.

Hell's magma is fatal to other races, but to demons, magma is like a bathing pool. Any dirt on the body can be cleaned by swimming in the magma, and the devil's horn is the same, passing through the magma After infiltration, it will become extremely smooth and bright, making the eyes of the demons who see it shine.

As a high-level demon who pays great attention to his appearance, Asmodai will naturally take care of his demon horns frequently.

But going back and forth to the magma pool was too time-consuming, so Asmodai found another way. He used the shell of the pomegranate fruit that grew near the magma to store a lot of magma. If the horns were not clean, he could clean them with magma, which was very convenient. .

Damon recalled it in his memory, and there was indeed such a thing. Unexpectedly, this Asmodai is still a stinky guy.

After taking the fire pomegranate shell from Asmodai's hand, Damon stretched out his fingernails to test the thickness and quality of the shell.

The strength is controlled under the water pressure, and the inner and surrounding areas of the fruit shell are pressed. According to the test, the fruit shell is intact and fully enough to hold water.Moreover, the fire durian shell is split in half and is about the size of a bucket, which can be used to hold water and transport water!

"This quality is acceptable." Damon immediately ordered: "Asmodai, where is the nearest fire pomegranate production area? We need to collect as many fire pomegranates as possible! Building a house requires a lot of fire pomegranate shells!"

Fire pomegranate is the most common plant in hell, and every magma pool is full of fire pomegranate.

Damon followed Asmodai and brought a few demons to a fire pomegranate field. Standing at the border of the fire pomegranate field, looking around, the fire pomegranates were scattered along the ground like watermelons along the black and red vines. , there are large fire durians with a diameter of almost one meter, and there are tender red fire durians that are less than the size of a fist and have not yet grown.

Fire pomegranates are the food of low-level demons. Many demons will collect fire pomegranates to eat, but fire pomegranates that are too large and too small are not within the scope of food.

The moisture in the flesh of the big fire durian fruit has been evaporated long ago, and the inner flesh is extremely choking when chewed. Although the small fire durian fruit is full of water, there will be a strange dry taste inside, which is difficult to swallow, so most of the demons collect medium The size of pomegranate.

And Dimon's goal this time is to have a radius of about one meter. Such fire durians are split in half, which is just right for holding water.

Damon found a similar size one, stretched out his sharp nails, and cut off the fire durian fruit from the vine.

The vines of fire durian fruit are as thick as an arm, covered with tiny thorns, and ordinary demons will always scratch their palms when collecting them.

But Damon's power is not comparable to those low-level demons. For the demons, the extremely difficult vines are like a thin piece of paper in Damon's hands, and they can be opened with a single swipe.

Damon raised his paws, one paw for each pomegranate, and at the same time ordered Asmodai who was following behind him: "Asmodai, you and these demons cut the pomegranate in the middle."

Daemon's movements were very fast, and in a short while nearly a hundred fire durians fell to the ground, and the demon servants following him also opened their shells and cleaned them up very neatly.

The skin of the fire durian fruit is extremely hard, throwing it out can stun a demon on the spot, but the fire durian fruit is unscathed, which shows how lethal this thing is, and it takes a lot of strength to open it.

However, the demons have already gained a set of experience in eating this thing. First, they use a sharp stone to strike a circle around the skin of the fire durian fruit, and then use the sharp end to align with the circle that was knocked out. With one smash, a fire durian fruit can be easily opened.

The shriveled flesh inside the fire durian fruit was easily poured out by the devil, and then filled with a shell of magma, the scorching magma would clean all the corners and corners of the shell at high temperature, and then pour out the magma in the shell, a The perfect water container is ready.

About [-] fire durians were collected, and there were nearly [-] fire durian shells that were half-opened and could hold water. Damon took a rough look and thought it was enough, so he stopped collecting fire durians. action.

"Okay, these should be enough to hold water to irrigate the foundation."

Tidy up the cleaned pomegranate husks and use them after the water channel is opened.There are so many fire durian seeds that have been dissected out, piled up into a hill.

The flesh inside the fire durian is similar to that of a durian. It grows separately on the inner base, and the edible part accounts for about two-thirds. However, Damon only chooses large fire durians, and the flesh inside has long since shriveled. After opening the skin, there are some red and white slag inside, which is extremely dry in the mouth, so basically no demons will eat the rest of these things.

But Damon felt that it was a pity to waste it. Fire durian fruit is the usual food for demons. As for the flame flower and flame slime gel that Damon had eaten before, these things were specially provided for the devil king, and the output was not much, and it was not enough In order to maintain the diet of the demons, Damon came up with the idea of ​​fire durian.

Building such a major fortification of the canal must consume a lot of physical strength. Damon decided to make three meals a day for these demons to ensure their diet.

In the demon team that is working hard to build, Daemon has seen many skinny demons. Now that he has become their demon king, he must feed these suffering people.

So Damon took a fire pomegranate seed, and broke it apart with a little force, revealing the powdery product inside. He twisted it with two fingers, because all the water inside was evaporated, and the powder was as fine as flour.

Damon tasted the powder on his fingertips. After eating it, he felt that it tasted similar to wheat flour, but it had a little more mellow flavor unique to fire durian fruit.

"This thing tastes like flour. If you eat too much of these ingredients, it will absorb the water in your throat and increase your thirst. No wonder these demons don't like to eat it." Damon rubbed the powder on his fingertips, "But, actually The taste is not bad, if there is water now, maybe you can-"

"Master Demon King! How can you eat such inferior food!" Asmodai saw that Damon was eating fire durian seeds, and blamed himself with pain: "It's the subordinate who neglected his duty! Forgot the time, so go Gather fire flowers for adults!"

Before Damon explained his purpose, Asmodai spread his wings and flew out in a hurry. Damon shrugged helplessly: "Okay, I also just want to see if the juice squeezed out of the flame flower can be mixed with dough."
