“What’s going on? What happened just now??”

Anisphia opened her eyes and looked around in surprise. She saw that the monsters flying around were all gone. At this moment, Duanmuhuai cursed and put away his war hammer.

“Damn, I really think I’m easy to bully. A bunch of broken birds, pretending to be garlic...”

“Did you do it just now, Lord Inquisitor? What did you do?”

Euphilia also widened her eyes in surprise at this moment, stared at Duanmuhuai and asked.

"Oh? It's nothing, I just used some tricks. These **** really think that I can't do anything to them because they fly so fast... Hey, I can't catch up with you, but I can take care of all this. I'll blow you up and let me see where you run!"

"Well………"

I have to say that Agnesphia and Euphilia were speechless when they heard Duanmuhuai’s angry complaints. Of course they could understand Duanmuhuai’s thoughts, but...

 “Your Majesty the Inquisitor, do you know how to do magic?”

“I know a little bit about it, it’s not as fancy and colorful as you guys, just use it as you like.”

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　icular

Hearing Duanmuhuai's casual answer, Euphilia had a complicated expression. She still remembered the unparalleled feeling of terror just now, as if the entire sky was about to collapse. To be honest, Euphilia asked herself, if she wanted to achieve a similar effect, she might not be able to do it even if she exhausted all her magic power.

 But looking at Duanmuhuai, it looks like he is taking a walk and drinking tea in the afternoon.

 Fortunately, this is high in the sky. If this were on the ground...

Thinking of this, Euphilia looked at the city below her with a complicated expression.

To be honest, she was not sure whether this abandoned city would be completely destroyed.

After all, Euphilia has never heard of such powerful magic - maybe demons have it, but humans...well, he can't really be a demon, right?

But he doesn’t have horns...don’t all demons have horns?

After Duanmuhuai wiped out the flying monsters in one fell swoop, the remaining problems were no longer a problem. Soon the coalition forces below also cleared out the army of monsters, and then began to set up defenses in the city. Duanmuhuai chatted with General Gaius. General Gaius said that the transportation here is developed and the city structure is basically complete. Prince Algard plans to use this place as a stronghold.

"Using this place as a base? Is he mentally lame?"

This was Duanmuhuai's first reaction when he heard General Gaius speak.

　　　…………”

General Gaius had to admit that it was thanks to him that he handed over to him. If it were those young people, just this sentence would make them angry to death.

“A stronghold means a lot of maintenance and later investment. The food we carry is limited, and there are not enough supplies in this city. We only need to stay for two or three days to rest. What the **** is this used as a stronghold?”

"Prince Algard has also considered this. The Kingdom of Paretia will send another army to transport supplies here, and then take over the garrison. After replenishing supplies, we can continue on the road."

"That is, after the supply troops behind are attacked by the demons, we will have no choice but to catch them blind, wasting time and supplies here in vain, and then when we find out that the supply troops are finished, we will already be in trouble, right?"

　　　…………”

General Gaius stopped talking. This was actually his idea. As we all know, the troops and horses have to go ahead with food and fodder. The Kingdom of Paretia's material reserves are also limited. The food and fodder that can be supplied to these tens of thousands of troops is already at its limit. Another wave will come. I'm afraid it will empty out the national treasury.

So when Prince Algard first proposed this plan, General Gaius was very opposed to it, but others around him thought that the demons might have already withdrawn to the North, and it was impossible to sneak attack the supply troops - others Demons can fly, right? Can't they just fly away?

In the end, General Gaius compromised and said that he could send supply troops, but not too many people... Even so, General Gaius was still a little worried. As Duanmu Huai said, tens of thousands of people eating and drinking is not a small number. If they stay here for one more day, it is actually equivalent to wasting one more day of supplies.

If the supply force is really attacked and the supplies are insufficient...then the coalition is really in danger.

 “This is an order from His Highness Algard.”

“I really wonder if he was sent from the opposite side to try to kill us.”

　　　…………”

Gaius felt that it was better not to say anything anymore. It would be too dangerous to continue.

 Although he has a little bit of this idea in his heart...

Just as Duanmuhuai and General Gaius were complaining, Anisfia and Euphilia also returned to their station. However, looking at Euphelia's thoughtful look, Anisfia was also curious. He started asking.

 “What’s wrong? Miss Euphilia? What are you thinking about?”

“Ah, Your Highness Anisphia, I was just thinking...I’m sorry, it’s just my personal thoughts...”

 “Oh, tell me about it.”

Hearing Euphilia's words, Agnesphia suddenly became curious and took Euphilia's arm. Although she was not very familiar with Euphilia before, the two of them have been seeing each other every day these days. Flying in the air together, we built some feelings. After hearing Anisphia's question, Euphilia was silent for a moment, and finally mustered up her courage.

"I, I suspect...the Lord Judge may be a demon..."

 “Huh? Why do you have such an idea?”

"because………"

Euphilia also explained it to Agnesphia. After all, the magic performed by Duanmu Huai was too shocking. Not to mention that Euphilia couldn't do it, I'm afraid not many human magicians in this world can do it. To this extent. After all, Anisphia is not a magician, so she may not feel it, but any normal magician will have the same idea after seeing Duanmuhuai's performance just now.

 Is this something a human can do? !

“Hmm…” After listening to Euphilia’s story, Agnesphia also fell into thinking, and then her eyes lit up.

 “By the way, I understand what’s going on!”

 “Hey? Your Highness Anisphia, do you understand?”

"That's right! I think it should be like this... You see, demons all have horns, but Mr. Judge has no horns, which means he must be a demon! After all, you can see that he is much taller than ordinary people, and he is also He looks so vicious, he doesn’t look like a human being at first sight!”

 “Huh? But he doesn’t have horns!”

"Look, I think it should be like this. Maybe it was because he was born without horns that the demons abandoned him. Then Mr. Judge lived alone because of this, and he became angry and angry at the demons who abandoned him. Resentment, so he joined the army to conquer the demons, just to get revenge on the demons who abandoned him...ah, it hurts, it hurts!!"

However, before Anisfia could finish her words, an iron hand stretched out from behind, grabbed Anisfia's head, and lifted her up directly.

 “Naobu is a disease, I think you need to get treatment!”

Duanmuhuai looked at Agnesphia struggling desperately in his hands angrily, and used some strength on his hands again.

“Ahhhhh! Help, my head is going to explode!”

Looking at Anisphia screaming in agony, Duanmuhuai threw her down.

"Are you stupid? Demons are born with no human feelings, and no concept of family. All demons are born and grow up alone. This is common sense, and you don't even take classes?"

Since he has to deal with the demons, Duanmuhuai has naturally investigated the knowledge about the demons. These are experiences passed down for hundreds of thousands of years. Are you using your brain or not?

  It’s really just that big of a brainless thing.

　　Seeing Anisphia shaking suddenly as she was thrown to the ground, Duanmuhuai also snorted coldly.

“Your script about a prince’s revenge is still effective on humans, but it’s completely useless against demons.”

"Huh? But don't the demons also speak our language? I think we can communicate..."

“You really don’t realize the dangers of demons at all.”

Looking at Agnesphia holding her head, Duanmuhuai sighed silently.

“Let me ask you a question, do you know the origin of the demon clan?”

 “Ah, I know this...”

 Euphilia raised her hand.

“I heard that the earliest demons were monsters that could imitate human voices, lure humans, and then prey on them...”

 “That’s it, do you understand?”

　　　…………???”

"Why………"

Looking at the two innocent and simple silly people looking at him blankly, Duanmu Huai sighed.

"Well, if you walk on the road one day and hear a little girl's voice crying, 'It hurts so much, it hurts so much, please help me'... will you go up and take a look? What if you go up and take a look and find out that it's a demon?" Tribe—well, you must have killed it, so what do you think of that demon tribe? Is it cunning and takes advantage of human sympathy?"

"Is not it?"

"of course not."

Facing Anisphia’s dumb question, Duanmuhuai sneered.

"The moment you bring human emotions into the demon clan, you lose. As for the demon clan, it doesn't understand what human emotions are at all. The reason why it does this is very simple - because it knows Using this voice to call for help will attract prey, that's all."

 Duanmu Huai also read a lot of books describing demons, and also killed several demons, and then he discovered something.

The thinking logic of these demons is more like AI in a strict sense. They have their own unique logic and way of thinking. It’s like asking an AI how to improve productivity. AI will naturally say that the best way is to use redundant All the population will be dealt with, and you will be thoughtfully reminded that it is best to deal with the elderly.

Because from the perspective of AI, children can grow up, and the young labor force is responsible for output, and older ones have to bear the responsibility of reproduction. On the contrary, the elderly have no output according to AI standards and still need to consume. A large amount of social resources exist, so from the perspective of improving productivity, the elderly naturally need to be eliminated.

Maybe AI will even directly recommend the enactment of a law in the future to directly execute the elderly who are over 60 years old and have no "use value".

This is unacceptable from a human perspective, but it is no problem at all for AI.

The thinking circuit of the demons is similar to that of these AIs, so much so that Duanmuhuai doubted that these guys were humanoid robots.

 So after figuring it out, Duanmu Huai had no idea - what nonsense are you talking to AI about? Just smash it and be done with it.

"So don't think too much. No matter what the demons say, it has nothing to do with humans. Just fight and it will be over."

Looking at the two stupid people, Duanmu Huai snorted coldly.

 “Remember this sentence, otherwise you will be finished sooner or later.”
