Abyss Summoner-Chapter 116 - 114: A Different Inferior Demon
The harsh environment, barren land, cold-blooded monsters, and the confusion of a futureless despair—this dark word fills the heart of every survivor. No matter where they are, they are pitiful people living at the bottom.
But now it’s different. The City of Order has given them hope and dreams they never experienced before.
Though it hasn’t been established long, it is full of wonders, like a new force emerging as a butterfly from a chrysalis, giving people sensations they’ve never experienced before.
On this land, as long as you work hard, you can have everything: warm houses, delicious food, sharp weapons. As long as you work well, all these can be realized.
A rigorous system is the foundation of a force, whereas ambition and dreams are the nutrients that promote the growth of that force. Whether professionals or refugees, here they all have the right and qualification to pursue the future.
......
In the room, Wei Xun was dining. He was expressionless, with sword-like brows and sharp eyes. Even just sitting there silently, he exuded a terrifying aura of killing intent, giving an extremely dangerous feeling, as if a beast was sitting on the bench, making people shiver with fear.
As for his right arm, it has now returned to normal size, but it’s still pitch black, covered with hard keratin, which even a steel saber cannot cut through.
In battle, Wei Xun doesn’t even need to transform into a lizard form. Just by using this arm, he can crush a Blood Nether Centipede. Unconsciously, his strength has reached a staggering level.
At this time, a steak was placed in front of him, sprinkled with honey. As the leader of the combat group, he receives three grams of Blood Honey as tribute every month.
Wei Xun treasures this Blood Honey, only consuming some when his strength is depleted or after completing certain tasks when his body feels exhausted.
After a while, a woman came over with a bottle of red wine, pouring a glass for Wei Xun.
The beauty looked about twenty-seven or twenty-eight, with black hair simply tied into a ponytail, wearing a sleekly tailored black and white casual outfit, simple and elegant white boots, and crescent chains diagonally fastened on her snow-white arms.
This woman had some work experience and put herself forward, managing affairs by Wei Xun’s side.
This woman had skills and scheming, managing to stand firm beside Wei Xun.
To Wei Xun, this woman was also somewhat capable, not only in work but also exceptionally good in social dealings.
This is the apocalypse.
Relying on the strong is also a choice for survival.
"Knock, knock..."
Suddenly, there was a knocking sound from outside the door.
"Annoying!" Wei Xun frowned, with a somewhat unfriendly tone: ’What is it?’
"Leader, the lord wants you to see him." The member outside the door answered truthfully.
"Hmm? The lord wants me!" Wei Xun’s face initially wore a frustrated look of annoyance at being disturbed. But upon hearing Chen Feng was calling him, he pushed the woman away and directly opened the door and walked out.
......
During this time, Chen Feng had handed full control of the power to Wei Xun and Xu Zhe, himself staying in the room for a long time, never to be disturbed by anything.
"Strange, the lord has been in the room for a whole week. What exactly does he want this time by calling me?" Wei Xun’s heart skipped a beat. He knew who gave him everything. Though women were beautiful, they were far less important than his status. Thinking of this, he quickened his pace and walked towards Chen Feng’s residence.
Chen Feng’s residence was a two-story building, originally a place for school leaders to work, now it has been converted into a living space.
Beside the building, there were people patrolling from time to time, ten in a team, most holding knives and iron rods aside from some firearms.
Recently, they had also searched the abandoned police station and military camp, gaining some weapons. Although mostly handguns, there were over thirty, forming a considerable force when combined.
"Wei... Xun..."
Just as Wei Xun arrived at the entrance, a hoarse voice suddenly came from the side, low like a dying person’s wail, making one’s scalp tingle. 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮
"Damn it, why is this monster here!" Wei Xun’s heart trembled, and the hairs on his back stood up. He looked up to see a bulky figure crouched at the entrance.
Its body lay in the shadow as if concealed, with only its head resting on the step.
At this time, those eyes were staring at him, somewhat curious, somewhat pleased, somewhat... longing and greedy.
Inferior Demon.
Confirming the other’s identity, Wei Xun’s back was instantly covered with cold sweat. This main control of the combat group could absolutely be considered a titan in the camp. Even when seeing silver monsters, he dared to fight to the death. Yet now, he was showing a demeanor as if facing a great enemy.
Only by truly witnessing the other’s methods did he know the terrifying aspect of this fiend. When subduing this academy, Wei Xun watched helplessly as it was this monster before him that left him a shadow.
To this day, he cannot forget the expressions of extreme despair and fear on those two people when they were engulfed.
But this wasn’t the most horrifying thing.
He remembered that when he first met the Inferior Demon, it could only say simple words, absolutely incapable of communication. But now... it could actually call out his name.
What does this signify?
This monster learned to think and gradually acquired language ability.
A body of mud and flesh, with over a dozen crimson arms on it, it inherently seemed like a hellish container, sealing countless fierce ghosts.
Blocking the way.
Wei Xun opened his mouth, though feeling it absurd to communicate with such a creature, he still said, "The lord needs me, I must go in."
The Inferior Demon tilted its head: "Can go in... arm... leave behind..."
The Inferior Demon was like a child asking for candy from an adult, with no intention of backing down, making a demand of Wei Xun instead.
Arm.
It was attempting to take the most precious thing from Wei Xun’s body.
Wei Xun’s face immediately changed, but he dared not act rashly. Besides the Inferior Demon’s terrifying strength, which he had no hope of defeating, the most important reason was that it was the most favored summoned beast of the lord, bar none.
Wei Xun had been with Chen Feng for some time, and all this while, he had only seen the other gently stroke the Inferior Demon’s head.
The lord, with such a strict personality, could actually make a stroking gesture. This showed the incomparably important position the Inferior Demon held in his heart.
Thinking of this, Wei Xun was in a dilemma, not knowing what to do.
"The Inferior Demon... likes... your arm..." a halting voice emerged from the Inferior Demon’s mouth, appearing both clumsy and focused.
"If you keep being naughty, I’ll send you back to the Abyss, let him in." Hearing the commotion, Chen Feng’s voice came from inside the house.
The Inferior Demon puffed up its cheeks, not daring to blame Chen Feng. It could only vent its grievance on Wei Xun, its eyes fixed on him, showing an expression of "Look what you’ve done!"
Not only the language, but even expressions had evolved towards those of humans. On its face, no longer was the smile resembling a mask; just like now, it managed to express anger.
Wei Xun briefly fell into a daze but saw those over a dozen arms in the shadows, faintly visible, dragging the Inferior Demon’s body to the side of the big door.
Unnecessarily remembered with resentment, Wei Xun showed a bitter smile.
However, with Chen Feng urging him, he dared not linger and stepped into the door...
