One Sneeze Destroys A Magical Civilization

Chapter 116 Zuo Si's Wisdom

"Don't believe anything it says! Every word, every sentence that comes out of the mouths of these devils from hell, is a deceit and a lie."

Eroline, who regards all evil creatures in the lower planes as her sworn enemy, immediately jumped out and issued a loud warning.

Not only that, but she was even eager to use the weapon in her hand to send the other party back to his hometown.

But Zuo Si controlled the illusion and gave the young and impulsive paladin a calm look. At the same time, the main body, which remained invisible, moved a little closer, carefully observing the situation in the tomb ahead with the help of a weak light source.

Especially the binding magic circle depicted on the ground, and the complicated symbols and patterns inside the magic circle.

In addition, he also found that about ten meters away from the devil, there was another table that was not affected by the [Fireball Technique] just now.

There were two candlesticks on the table, and one looked like an altar for an evil sacrifice ceremony. Dried blood and a rotten and smelly black heart could be vaguely seen in the altar.

There is a very unique dagger stuck in the heart.

Next to the altar is a notebook that has been stained black and red by blood plasma.

"Why were you summoned here? In other words, how did you fulfill your role as a game item when you were summoned here?" Zuo Si asked with interest as he controlled the phantom.

He is not an ordinary person who knows nothing about the lower planes, demons, devils, sacrificial rites, and cross-plane summoning.

Just the opposite!

As early as the first time the portal to Faerun was opened and the necromancer Ashtar successfully captured a young mage, Zuo Si was silently collecting knowledge on this aspect.

Later, when he arrived in Calimport, he collected more than seventy related works in the mage tower of the magic item merchant.

Among them, there are many famous legendary mages and magic goddesses such as Elminster and Kelben "Black Rod". The demon classification, the introduction of the main levels of the abyss, and the commonality of Batezu devils are compiled by classifying and summarizing their years of exploration and research results , hell environments and political ecology.

There is even a book known throughout the multiverse - "The Chronicles of Igwil Voldemort".

This famous "Queen of Witches" once managed to imprison Grazte, one of the Big Three in the abyss, in her dark basement for "Prison Play"

In some books apparently written by evil mages, thousands of demons or devils with power ranging from low to high are directly given, so that readers can summon them according to their own needs.

Of course, whether the summoning can be controlled or not is another matter.

Anyway, in Faerun, there are not too many spellcasters who die every year because of summoning demons or demons.

Through those hidden traces, Zuo Si has almost judged the intention of the mastermind behind the scenes to summon and restrain a bone demon here.

It's just that he still wants to get more useful information from the mouth of the devil.

As a senior devil far more powerful than the little devil, the bone devil is undoubtedly cunning.

Although they are not known for their "intelligence" among the huge group of demons, they always give people a feeling that they are immersed in venting violence and killing and cannot extricate themselves.

But it is undeniable that the bone devil is still a kind of devil, and far smarter than most mortals.

The bone demon imprisoned in the center of the binding circle first looked Zuo Si's phantom up and down, then grinned and asked, "Are you sure you want to open the passage to the bottom of the tomb according to the method those guys provided? "

"There's no harm in having one more option, is there?" Zuo Si controlled the phantom to put on a cautious and defensive posture as much as possible.

He suddenly discovered that this magical card that could create an illusion and last for a long time was much easier to use than he expected.

Because unless it is attacked and destroyed, the phantom is basically no different from a real person, whether it is demeanor, touch, movement, smell, or clothing.

Even the eyes and facial muscles can be fine-tuned according to the will of the user, in order to deceive the enemy.

"Hahahaha! Are you afraid of me?

God!

I'm a devil who keeps promises!

Not those damned demons from the Abyss!

If you're worried that I'll do something bad to you if I break free, why not sign a bond as a guarantee? "

As he said that, the Bone Demon took out a scroll of parchment full of tiny characters from somewhere.

"Sorry, I'm not interested in the contract you offered."

Zuo Si immediately declined without hesitation for even a second.

Make a pact with a devil from Baator?

What a joke!

The level of misinterpretation of laws, clauses and word games by these guys is many times higher than those lawyers who specialize in serving rich people in capitalist countries on earth.

Even seemingly ordinary content can become completely opposite to your understanding under their "interpretation".

What's more, the devil has always been known for his patience.

Those contracts that seem to be beneficial to you are often just bait to lure mortals to the path of depravity.

So if you don't want your soul to go to hell, the best way is not to sign any contract with the devil at all, don't even look at it.

Seeing that his little trick was exposed, the bone demon was not angry, but put away the parchment and sighed slightly: "Oh——you don't like contracts?

What a pity!

Because you have no idea what you're missing.

You must know that in the entire multiverse, there are countless mortals who are eager to sign such a contract in this way to realize their unattainable wishes.

After all, we devils are the most contract-abiding race, not one of them. "

Regarding the bone demon's shameless bragging about the hell contract, Zuo Si just responded in a very flat tone: "Sorry, I don't think your devil's contract can really help those people realize their so-called "wish".

Because everyone's power, knowledge, wealth and strength are the realization of the cognition of things in this world and even the entire multiverse.

And the fairest part of it is that if you are lucky enough to get something that doesn't match your cognition, the world will have thousands of ways to take it away.

Until the power, knowledge, wealth, and power you possess match what you already know.

For example, some idiots who have inherited a large amount of inheritance but only know how to eat, drink, and play are usually cheated of all their money by scammers, and eventually become impoverished and can only barely make a living by begging;

Aristocrats who inherit the title or even the throne from their parents, but do not have enough ability to manage and rule, may be overthrown mercilessly by their subordinates, or become a pathetic puppet under the manipulation of conspirators;

A little guy who didn't even have the ability to protect himself suddenly picked up an artifact that could change his own destiny, but he didn't have enough strength and wisdom to keep it, and was killed by a greedy adventurer before he went far...

There are so many similar examples that I can't finish it in three days and three nights.

Signing a dangerous pact with a devil like yourself is naturally included.

There is only one way to avoid similar situations, and that is to set a goal first, whether it is long-term or short-term, and then achieve it bit by bit with your own efforts.

Never try to take shortcuts!

Because most of the time, the "shortcuts" you see are usually the ones that are the farthest from "success".

The seemingly distant and bumpy road is often the real "shortcut".

So please put away those boring lies and deceptions, and just tell me how to open the passage to the bottom of the tomb. "

Such wise and philosophical words made the Bone Demon's face show surprise and surprise on the spot.

Because he has an endless lifespan, he has seen countless mortals, but this is the first time he has encountered a person with such insight.

Not just devils!

The lady paladin on the side also widened her eyes in shock, a little in disbelief that such words came from a boy who looked only about ten years old.

Despite having heard the sharp rhetoric about giving to the poor before.

At this moment, she finally understands a little bit why God wants to let herself follow Zuo Si, and do everything possible to ensure that she will not fall into evil.

Eroline couldn't even imagine what a terrible enemy a person like Zuo Si would become if he devoted himself entirely to evil.
