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

#5 - Chapter 5 Characteristics of Demons

It wasn't just the Lesser Demons putting on the grand spectacle of cannibalism in front of Wu Wei.

Not far away, the Imps that Wu Wei had recruited were also engaged in mutual slaughter and devouring.

Just as Wu Wei shifted his perspective to the Lesser Demons, these demons, nearly twice their size, had already torn apart one of their companions and devoured it completely.

Even more terrifying was that these Imps, considerably stronger than the Lesser Demons, desired to devour more than just their own kind.

The Lesser Demons, recognized as cannon fodder by the Abyss, were also on their menu!

“Aow!”

“Woo!”

With cries of agony, these first-born Imps began to seek out "suitable" Lesser Demons to satisfy their hunger.

The second batch of Lesser Demons didn't even have time to devour each other like their first-batch brethren before they were turned into food for the Imps!

Flesh was torn off, and blood was drunk.

A Lesser Demon screamed as it was grabbed by an Imp and pinned to the ground.

No matter how it tried to escape the Imp's grasp, it was in vain.

The Imp was superior to the Lesser Demon not only in size but also in strength!

Its gradually dimming eyes were full of unwillingness and pain.

But all of this was an ultimate enjoyment for the Imp.

Because the demon race was somewhat different from other races.

Their goal in hunting was not just to fill their stomachs.

The true purpose of demons was to spread pain, to destroy everything they could destroy, and to savor the taste of fear in the eyes of other living beings!

This was the true purpose of demons.

They were natural perverts, bastards, slave owners, and madmen!

————————————————

Initially, Wu Wei had thought that the hunger after birth was prompting these demon soldiers he had recruited to devour each other.

After all, these Lesser Demons behaved as if they had been reincarnated as hungry ghosts.

So, upon seeing this, he immediately purchased enough food for these dozen Lesser Demons and Imps to eat for two days from the Heavenly Dao Shop and distributed it to them.

In addition, Wu Wei used the Lord's command to order them to keep a certain distance from each other, not to devour each other.

But all of this was only temporary.

Because, to everyone's surprise, most of the demons, after receiving the food, devoured it all in one go without hesitation.

Then, they went straight to snatching food from the other demons who still had it in their hands.

Even though they were full to bursting, they still coveted more. Endless desire drove these lowest and most despicable demons to acquire more as if under a curse.

What, you ask what most means? Aren't there still a small number of demons who didn't do this?

Sorry, the other small number of demons were a hundred times worse than the majority.

Because they directly hid the food that Wu Wei distributed and then went to snatch the food from other demons' hands....

“...”

Wu Wei, who already had some understanding of demons, quickly realized something.

Giving these demons food could only temporarily slow down their mutual slaughter.

As long as they didn't have a common goal, as long as they had a breath left, then these demons would fight to the last one.

But this wasn't a meaningless slaughter.

Wu Wei observed that any demon who devoured other demons would gain 1-4 attribute points.

The more of their own kind they devoured, the greater the increase.

In other words, this group of unremarkable, vile, and shameless bastards was actually evolving slowly, albeit at the cost of blood.

This was good news and bad news for Wu Wei.

The good news was that his troops seemed to have a good upper limit.

The bad news was that if his troops continued to "evolve," his trial would fail!

“Stay where you are! No more mutual devouring!”

Wu Wei forcibly used the Lord's control to separate these Lesser Demons and Imps by a certain distance and slowly led them to the Abyss Gate.

At this time, Wu Wei also discovered another major characteristic of these demons.

That was the issue of obedience to the Lord's orders.

Demons, like all other races, would obey the compulsory orders of their Lord.

This was determined by the Heavenly Dao System.

The same was true for any race.

But the difference was that demons would always produce a little bit of...

Misinterpretation~.

They would always intentionally or unintentionally "misinterpret" the Lord's orders and do some small bad things.

For example, secretly eating a Lesser Demon when no one was around.

Or, taking advantage of Wu Wei's inattention to give a fellow demon who had provoked them a good beating.

In short.

In the eyes of most races and Lords, the demon race, did not have any so-called "discipline."

“No, although it's a bit early to go to the Trial Continent now, I have no choice but to go now.”

“If I delay any longer, these demon warriors will probably only have one left.”

Thinking of this, Wu Wei, as the Lord, opened the long-sealed Abyss Gate and injected the coordinates marked on the Heavenly Dao System into it.

“Instead of letting them engage in a meaningless 'chicken-eating contest' in my territory, it's better to let them go to the Trial Continent to accumulate some resources.”

The Trial Continent had not only resources but also countless native monsters transported by the Heavenly Dao.

They could not only produce flesh and blood to incubate new Lesser Demons but also provide many precious materials.

Therefore, Wu Wei planned to secretly farm a wave of "wild monsters" while other Lords were working hard to build their territories in order to establish teleportation portals.

Like countless ultimate laws in the real universe, the total amount of resources in the Trial Continent was often fixed.

But the number of people who wanted to obtain these resources was constantly increasing!

The ultimate law called "Dark Forest" was so terrible not only because of its inherent meaning but also for another reason.

That was that what accompanied the Dark Forest would always be conspiracies and disputes, would always be wars of slaughter and destruction.

All rational races would always try to reduce wars that could easily lead to their own destruction and increase wars that could strengthen themselves.

War, to them, was just a means, not an end.

But the meaning of war, for a certain race and a certain person, might change somewhat.

War, for a certain race, was their means of survival.

War, for a certain person, was the only joy and the only purpose.

As the black and red Abyss Gate opened, one demon after another walked in.

And Wu Wei couldn't help but reveal a smile.

The Trial Continent had finally welcomed its first "guest."

——————————

On the other side, on the Trial Continent, someone else also noticed Wu Wei's abnormality.

“What's going on? Someone was actually able to open a teleportation portal on the first day of the trial? How is that possible?”

A sparrow, standing on a treetop, couldn't help but reveal horror and incomprehension in its eyes after seeing the Abyss Gate, which represented ominousness and destruction, open in the distance.
