Chapter 378: process of depravity

Everyone has their own destiny to face. Let us take our sympathy away from the tragic and **** battlefield, retreat along the Styx, return to the city of Dis, and focus again on the place full of An interrogation room where weeping and wailing.

The location of the interrogation room has not changed, but the furnishings inside are quite different from last time.

Barrett found that the strange torture devices that had tortured him before had disappeared in the room, and were replaced by other strangely shaped devices. It seemed that each interrogator had his own unique interrogation style.

The devil guards in the room have also been strengthened a lot. Five steel demons and three chain demons are guarding the tall bone demon in the center, although the same type of demons are all similar in Barrit's eyes. , but he can still tell that this bone demon is very different from the one he killed before.

There is a long and narrow axe mark on its white bone cheek on the right side. The axe mark extends from the top of its head to its lower jaw. While smashing half of its face, it also blinded its right eye. But behind this bone demon, there were two long scorpion-shaped tails. The curved and sharp scorpion needles at the tip of the tails glowed with dark green fluorescence, which seemed to contain deadly poison.

"Your name is Barrit? Are you a human? It's really not like that." The newly appointed Bone Demon Inquisitor looked at the barbarian curiously, "It seems that you are recovering very well. I thought it was impossible for you to survive. "

"Many people have had the same idea, but they are all disappointed without exception." Barrett replied lightly.

"Confidence is a good thing, Barritt of the main material world, but it's very stupid here." The bone demon sneered, "For what you have done in this room before, we can choose to kill you, Then imprison your soul forever. To be honest, we devils are actually better at torturing the soul than torturing the body. Until then, see if you can still be as rebellious and confident as you are now.”

Barrett was silent. Although he is a barbarian, he also knows that it is useless to be brave.

"I have to admit that your skills are quite good, you were able to break free from the torture tool, and you also killed the waste of 'Damases'." The bone demon scratched the armor of a steel demon next to him with his bone fingers, "That guy It will definitely enter history, I can't help laughing when I think of this." There was actually a little smile on its skeleton-like face.

"You humans will record history, and so do we devils. Damasis will become the first interrogator to be killed by prisoners since the establishment of 'Mantiri', and he will definitely be as famous as 'Palut'. Do you know Parut?"

Barrett shook his head. "I don't want to know any name that smells of corruption and sulphur."

"It's just some names, but it's not as interesting as you think." The Bone Demon said casually, "Palute was once a Bone Demon Inquisitor, like me and Damasis, but he Persuaded to be converted by his own prisoner, a human paladin... sorry, that's not accurate."

The Bone Demon thought for a while, "It should be said that Parut was persuaded to have faith, yes, that's it. And what he believes in is a weak **** who is in charge of 'wilderness' and 'cooking', how absurd it is one thing."

"There's such a god?" Barrett asked suddenly, "What's his name?"

"Who cares, why do you want to know this?" Bone Demon asked with a frown. He looked down at the barbarian condescendingly, brought his ugly skeleton face closer, and took a few breaths on his nose, "You don't look like a believer, why are you interested in gods."

"Just ask casually." Barbarian said casually, "That's all."

"The city of Des has nearly infinite space, and many young and weak gods have taken advantage of this to hide in the city, and carefully and devote themselves to operating their own divine realm. If you have the opportunity to hang out in the city in the future, maybe you can Meet one of those guys. Of course, the premise is that the **** is interested in you."

Oh? Wandering around the city? With Barrett's IQ, he could clearly hear the overtone, "This kind of opportunity must be very precious." He asked tentatively.

"Don't you want to enter the arena? Lord Prisoner appreciates your skills and has personally agreed to your request." The Bone Demon said, "It won't be long before you can win this kind of opportunity in the arena yourself. "

"My equipment..."

"That's not yours." The bone demon said solemnly, "You know, in 'Mantili', you don't even belong to yourself. However, it is not impossible for you to regain them." The devil changed his tone again, "Then another transaction needs to be made. It's too early to say, wait until you prove your worth first."

After the newly appointed Bone Demon Inquisitor finished speaking, he waved his hand to let the Barb Demon take him away and returned to the cage.

...

In the prison, Barrett frowned and asked the Soul Merchant the question in his heart, "The new interrogator seems to be very talkative, he didn't ask me any questions, and he didn't repeatedly torture me with torture tools like the guy before. , but after a few simple chats, he just let me back, why is that?"

"It's not hard to guess." Elvis replied from the other side of the wall. "You know, the devils do everything for some unknown purpose. And the reason why they are gentle is in me. It seems that either you are more interested in yourself, or it is a means to lure you into depravity, or it may be a combination of the two reasons."

"It's a little more detailed, I don't quite understand it." Barrett asked with his 'roommate' in his arms.

"The first possibility, because you killed Damasis unexpectedly in a desperate situation, and let other devils initially recognize your strength. They may think that they can get greater benefits from you." The Soul Merchant explained, "Like a horse race, you might be considered a thoroughbred with the appearance of a champion, or a dark horse that suddenly came out to disrupt the situation."

Barrett nodded silently, "So, what about the second possibility?"

"It's easier to explain," said the Soul Merchant. "Do you think the devil's methods are just cruel blood sacrifices, direct exchange of interests, or torturing people with those weird instruments of torture? No, that's just the most superficial methods. That's it. Although their patience is much less than in ancient times, they are not shy about using some long-term methods for more valuable goals."

"for example?"

"Do you know 'Elliott'?" asked the soul merchant.

The name Barrett feels familiar, quite familiar. After thinking about the time for three heartbeats, he suddenly remembered that the full name of the saber 'Touch of Tyranny' contained this name, "A tyrant?" Barbarian said uncertainly.

"Yes, I'm so glad you've heard this name, it's much easier to explain." The soul merchant sighed with relief, "According to a certain unofficial record, the reason why Elliott became a tyrant of the world is that Because there are demons involved. Back then, it was much easier for the demons to enter the material plane than it is now. They hid behind every intelligent race and whispered softly, disturbing the entire continent."

"According to the book, the reason why the devils came to Elliott was because he had just ascended the throne and wanted to do something great for the country and the people, and leave his name in history." Soul. The businessman said, "The devils suggested that he issue some orders that seem to be more positive. Although the original intention of those orders is good, but the means are a bit extreme. The people and nobles do not buy it, and there are many people who oppose it."

"The young king couldn't do anything about it, and the devils suggested that the king should lock up those who took the lead in opposing it, so that no one would dare to speak out. They also cited relevant events in history to convince the king, although those The stories are true, but the contexts and circumstances are very different.”

"The king did as he should, but did not get the desired effect, and the wave of opposition became more and more intense. At this time, the devil suggested that the king who had retreated a little~lightnovelpub.net~ should kill those leading guys directly,' You are the king, how can there be any people who always disagree with you? In fact, it is the guys at the head who are in the way. They don't want you to be loved, they want to make you a puppet, but you are 'slaughtered'. The blood of Elro' the Dragon, you should show the momentum of your former king to slay the evil red dragon, and kill those who oppose it, because they are the red dragon that hinders the kingdom and your progress.'"

"The king did it again?" said Barrett.

"Of course, otherwise how could he become a tyrant in the end." The soul merchant said with a smile, "Death did silence a lot of opposition, but it was only on the surface. After that, whenever there was opposition, Egypt Under the temptation of the devil, Liot will raise the blade and slash down fiercely."

"You know that killing can sometimes be a terrible habit, and when it takes root in a king, it becomes even more terrible. Finally, the devils tell the king, 'Since everyone is afraid of you, Then just let them be afraid. You are a king, and you should be afraid of them.'" After the soul merchant finished speaking, he concluded, "A good starting point has created a tyrant in the end. This is what the devils used to be. The most common method. They will start with the small, the easy-to-receive aspects, and they will seduce you little by little. In the end, you may become the next 'Elliott'."

"Me? Impossible!" Paris shook her head confidently.

"Not necessarily. You must know that there is evil in everyone's heart." The soul merchant said in a very mysterious voice, "Most people will hide this evil very well, but the devils always have way to release it."
