Chapter 216 Help Me Escape and I'll Make You a Demon!



"Alright human, now that you understand Skaven\'s greatness, go find me some offerings! I want Soul Lotus, ten of them!"

After saying so much in front of Reji, the rat-man didn\'t forget his main topic and urged impatiently, aside from satisfying his fantasy.

This made Reji laugh.

"Since you, the Tenth Apostle of the Demon Race, are so powerful, how come you\'re still in a place like this? Locked up in a human prison, becoming a prisoner?"

"What do you know! Your despicable Emperor used forbidden techniques to communicate with evil beyond the material plane and murdered our Demon King! We demons had no choice but to temporarily endure and hide!"

The rat-man gnashed his teeth, as if he were a real demon.

His next words made Reji even more dumbfounded.

"As for me, squeak! You think I\'m really a prisoner? Squeak! Impossible! I am a key part of the great demon revival. I have a crucial mission bestowed upon me by the Demon King.

I\'m just pretending to be captured while actually infiltrating."

"We are gathering strength, squeak! The demons will soon make a comeback. When that time comes, that hypocritical and filthy Emperor will meet the doom! And so will you humans!"

"However, if you offer to me now, follow me, become my subordinate, and help us recover our strength, then when our demon army returns and tramples the human lands, I can plead to the King on your behalf, allowing you to become a demon servant and a member of our demon race!"

At the end, Skaven straightened his back, even his originally hunched rat waist straightened a bit.

He waved his rat claw, truly having the meaning of a commander, of course, if one could ignore his current tattered clothes and the dirt-filled mud on his claws due to the long time without cleaning.

"So you mean, you are a demon apostle, trapped in the dungeon, and as long as I give you ten Soul Lotus flowers, you can recover your strength, bring the demons back to kill, and then give me rewards?"

"Squeak! Human! Very good! You understand correctly!" Skaven didn\'t pay much attention to that strange "give" syllable.

"How about fifty flowers?"

"F-fifty!?" The rat-man was startled by Reji\'s big request.

Although he was very happy that Reji was so understanding, he still had to explain to Reji what this Soul Lotus was and what each flower meant.

"Human, I Skaven has felt your devotion. If you can truly bring fifty, then I...I will apply to the King to promote you from a demon servant to a demon commander! Second only to our Ten Apostles!"

"It\'s just, do you really know what Soul Lotus is? Since you can come here, you must have seen it when passing through the Exile Area, those flowers glowing with a pale blue light, right? That is Soul Lotus."

"Each Soul Lotus requires the life force of at least five death row inmates to bloom. It is extremely difficult to pick and will only be born in the Exile Area. We in the Gloom Area cannot intervene."

"So you mean I have to go back and kill fifty human prisoners for you?"

"Squeak! That\'s right! Seeing your pious heart, I Skaven will make an exception and reveal more information to you. These offerings you give me will also benefit you! See the gloom on the opposite side?"

The rat-man stepped aside and pointed to Reji. Across the dividing line, the thick gloom shrouded the land of Stillwater Prison.

Just seeing this faint gray mist, one could feel the strong ominous aura emanating from it.

"Without protection, the moment you step into the Gloom Area, the gloom will attach to you like a curse, eroding your flesh and twisting your mind every minute and second, eventually turning you into a writhing lump of flesh, becoming like the gloom monsters in the deeper Forbidden Area!"

"And as long as you offer me Soul Lotus, the Rat Demon King will temporarily grant you the supreme right to walk in the gloom, hmm!?"

Skaven hadn\'t finished speaking yet. He found that the human in front of him was gone.

When he turned his head, the rat-man\'s eyes widened, filled with disbelief.

Because he saw that while he was explaining to Reji how terrifying the gloom was, Reji had already crossed that dividing line long ago.

And indeed, as he said, as soon as Reji entered, the surging gloom discovered its prey and began to pounce on Reji.

But at this time, a jade core at Reji\'s waist began to glow.

The dark green fluorescence, like a protective shield, guarded Reji inside, isolating any gloom that wanted to approach.

"The Emperor\'s Lantern!?"

"How do you have this! You...who are you!?"

After a brief daze, the rat-man really jumped up this time. He didn\'t even care about the demon apostle image he had just created and directly used his hands and feet to chase after Reji\'s position.

After Skaven crossed the dividing line, the gloom also permeated and corroded his body, but the rat-man seemed to have long developed endurance. Plus, a pale blue petal in his arms began to glow, which was the Soul Lotus mentioned before, offsetting the influence of the gloom for him, allowing him to move.

But compared slightly to Reji\'s jade core, one could tell the huge difference. One could completely isolate the gloom, while the other could only slightly offset the gloom and would still have a small amount of harm to the body.

Because of this, the rat-man was so shocked.

"Wait, the Second Prince\'s lighthouse flickered before, so you...you\'re the Second Prince\'s person, right!"

Skaven\'s mind turned quite fast.

He guessed Reji\'s identity in one go, at least part of it was correct.

Reji deliberately didn\'t walk fast. It was indeed not bad to find a local guide here. Seeing the rat-man\'s appearance, he was also an old hand. Reji slowly said:

"What? The Tenth Apostle of the Demon Race shouldn\'t take a mere Second Prince seriously, right?"

At this point, Skaven had no mood to pretend. After confirming Reji\'s identity with a jade core, his attitude towards Reji took a 180-degree turn.

"My lord! Do you have a mission? I Skaven is willing to serve you! I know the Gloom Area the best! You know, we rat-men are best at dark areas! With excellent dark vision, wherever you want to go, I can help you!"

"Please, take...take poor me. Squeak, I\'ve had enough of this place. The gloom here is driving me crazy!"

"I am willing to do anything for you, squeak! I beg you...you can say a few more words to the Second Prince, beg the Second Prince to release me from Stillwater Prison! No, no no, just let me live in the shelter!"

The rat-man could be humble and arrogant, and indeed looked very knowledgeable. Reji also admired this point. One second ago he was still the Rat Demon Apostle, and the next second he could lie at his feet and act pitiful.

"The shelter you mentioned refers to those humans protected by the Second Prince?"

"Yes! That\'s right! That place! There are also Emperor\'s Lanterns there. As long as you are in the shelter, you can be free from the torture of the gloom. Are you going there?

Skaven will lead the way for you!" Read latest chapters on mvl

The rat-man race was indeed knowledgeable, that was true.

But another characteristic was also...cunning.

Skaven said he would lead the way for Reji, showing great loyalty, but in fact, through the map, Reji could see clearly that under the rat-man\'s guidance, he was completely opposite to the location marked by the Second Prince in the previous lighthouse, with a huge deviation.

Reji didn\'t expose it and just continued walking silently.

After a while, a dilapidated village-like place appeared in front of him.

And there, one after another, Skaven\'s fellow rat-men appeared.

Not only that, but there were also many other races of non-humans, nagas holding tridents, gray-brown-skinned goblin dwarves wearing faded red hats, grotesquely bloated fishmen, Tieflings with demonic horns, dark half-elves...

These races, more or less bearing some mutations, from other worlds, formed an encirclement and quickly surrounded Reji in the center.
