Chapter 435: Substituting the Pillars for the Beams, Driving the Wolf to Devour the Tiger

Breaking!

The succubus Therese's kneeling down immediately reversed the dangerous situation facing Byron and his companions, who were caught between a wolf in front and a tiger behind.

The only person Byron was afraid of was Therese, the fourth-level succubus holding the zero-level holy relic [Blood Cup]. As long as he could capture this key figure, the other people in the Second Prince's camp would not be a problem at all.

But for Therese, who thought highly of herself and treated men as playthings, this moment was the greatest humiliation she had ever experienced in her life.

She was born to be a queen who was high above everyone else. Only men would kiss her feet and accept the whip of her love with gratitude. When had she ever been treated like this?
"you"

However, as soon as the thought of resistance arose in her heart, it was immediately dispelled by Therese herself.

He even put the whip and the blood cup on the ground with a humble attitude that broke the heart of the second prince [Playboy] behind him, and with his palms facing up, he knocked his forehead on Byron's feet and said:

"Your Highness, I beg you to forgive my rudeness.

Your servant, Therese Ashbell, will offer you her loyalty, body, soul, and everything else."

When Byron stopped hiding it, she had already sensed the difference in the essence of their lives.

The suppression from a higher-ranking being on the same path made the succubus, who was also at the fourth level, completely unable to resist Byron's [Domination of Lower-level Servants].

At this moment, she was intoxicated by Byron's aura, intimidated by his tough and domineering attitude, and finally surrendered to the status of the Night Demon Prince, with two red hearts faintly visible in her eyes.

Byron finally felt relieved.

"Yes, there is a sense of self-abasement and difference in superiority."

After sensing it, [Control Lower Servants] might not be as effective on a 4th-order succubus as it is on a low-order beastman.

But at this time, as long as I don't let Therese commit suicide, deprive her of the basis of her existence, or seriously deviate from her own interests, I won't cause her violent resistance.

avi, rmvb, and mp4 are no problem at all.

No, it should be said that the thinking of succubus is completely different from that of normal people.

Byron suddenly felt something strange on his calf.

Looking down at the succubus from this angle, the snow-like full moon and the graceful figure like flowing water are all in sight, and a slender tail hangs down from behind the buttocks and wraps around his calves along the ground.

Apparently this is the instinct of a succubus.

Like a bad-tempered cat, it likes to play with its prey when it has the power of life and death, but it is very obedient and clingy when facing a strong owner.

Byron was not only not proud, but because of her submissive attitude, even the excitement of being promoted to a mythical creature and gaining eternal life faded a lot.

I feel like my promotion is still too slow! Too slow!
He has always been a person who thinks three steps ahead before taking one step. Looking at the succubus crawling in front of him, he couldn't help but think of the pinnacle of the Night Demon's path, Mother of Creation Lilith.

He is also the holder of the highest status among all night demons.

This is how Therese treated me, so is it possible that I will be like this when I face Lilith?

In the past, none of the dark wizards cared about this, as they believed that the old gods had been dead for nearly two thousand years and should continue to sleep.

I don't mind that there is a conceptual god above my head.

But now the truth that is being pieced together bit by bit shows that this is clearly not the case.

Once Lilith wakes up from her eternal sleep, she will naturally have stronger control over the night demons under her command than the [Night Demon Prince].

By then, even those above the self will have distinctions of superiority and inferiority.

Even if Byron could rely on the mutual balance of the three copies of "The Covenant between Man and God" to avoid being controlled by Lilith, other night demons did not have this privilege.

The major dark wizard societies and affiliated sects that were founded on Lilith's knowledge will probably undergo earth-shaking changes.

Eternal life also has a price.

It would be funny if he became the first person to gain immortality among all the people in the Old World, but lived shorter than a mortal.

Time waits not for us!
"Damn it, boy, what did you do to my Therese?
Kill! Kill this bastard quickly and rescue Miss Therese!"

The second prince [Playboy] who followed the succubus obviously had not figured out the situation yet and thought that his beloved beauty had been possessed by some despicable supernatural power of Byron.

In a hurry, his first reaction was to rescue his beauty.

"Yes, Your Highness."

Whoosh!
The collaborator and mistress, Fly Girl [Poison Messenger], immediately took action upon hearing the order.

He used the flying ability of his race that could never be photographed to get behind Byron and stabbed him in the back with the [Thief of Time] in his hand.

It’s not because she is so loyal to the second prince, but just to have someone to lean on for shade in the future.

The reason why he hooked up with this Playboy instead of other princes was simply because only he had strong tastes and could handle the fly girl.

Just like the eldest prince’s maternal tribe, the Earthquake Dragon Tribe, although a joke has been spread, in the past hundred years, none of the surrounding totem god tribes have lived better than them.

But until now, she has not realized that the holy relic in her hand has a terrible side effect.

[Playboy] Ever since he fell at the feet of Therese's skirt, there has been no other woman in his eyes. The Plague Messenger, this very special fly girl, has actually become an abandoned child.

Not only that, when she came up behind Byron and stabbed him in the back.

Byron, who was originally afraid of this treasure, didn't even try to dodge and just let her poke it in.

When Therese handed this treasure to the second prince, she said: "If anyone stands in my way, I will kill him. If God stands in my way, I will kill him."

It is because this sacrificial knife cannot kill the immortal gods, nor can it kill the immortal species like the Night Demon, which theoretically has an infinite lifespan!

Just like the meaning of Byron's mythological form, "∞" divided by two is still infinity.

Byron twisted his neck 180 degrees like an owl and smiled at the messenger of plague behind him.

The latter's face changed drastically and he was about to retreat.

An illusory blood-red river was reflected in the puddles caused by the heavy rain at her feet. Countless scarlet tentacles rushed out from it, dragging her in along with the obsidian sacrificial knife.

"what--!"

Pfft!
In a few seconds, he took down the two most threatening people in the Second Prince's team. Byron's wounds healed quickly, and he gave Violet, who was worried about him, a reassuring look, and then said to the succubus:
"Ms. Therese, please stand up. I also want to thank you for bringing me the complete promotion ceremony.

I think, now that we have come to this, we should talk about the ownership of the throne of the Solar Empire."

Before the succubus Therese could speak, she raised her head cautiously.

The second prince [Playboy], with red eyes, cursed the fly girl: "Waste."

He rushed up despite the heavy rain that was still falling from the sky. The rain fell on the Son of the Sun, making a "sizzling" sound and stirring up a large amount of water mist.

It looks like a locomotive out of control, but quite powerful.

"Asshole, let Miss Therese go!"

The "Queen" whom you cherish as if it were your life and who obeys you in everything, immediately becomes a slave who obeys another man in front of him. Which man can stand this script?
Even though he knew that Therese had countless male servants and lovers, it was obviously me who came first!

You came later and are at most a lackey under Miss Therese like me. How can you put a collar on Her Majesty the Queen right away?

I have been licking for so long, could it be that the clown is actually me?
Snapped!
The air crackled.

Byron's right foot shot up like a thunder, like a rapidly swinging steel whip, and kicked him back with a flying kick.

The pouring rain was shattered by the powerful energy of the military boots, turning into a white mist that rushed out for more than ten meters.

Being kicked casually by Byron was no easier than being hit head-on by a mad hippopotamus.

The Flower Fairy that finally took over Leo Capac’s body wanted to move, but Violet aimed a gun at its original body in the eye socket, and its feet froze in place.

This scene is increasingly like a villain trying to rob someone's lover.

Byron had a strange expression:

"Tsk tsk, Your Highness, it is rare to find someone as infatuated as you among the nobles.

But his skills are too poor, not much better than the fourth child in your family.

It’s all because the conditions are too favorable. Even spirituality is cultivated over time. However, no matter how high-quality the iron ore is, it is only ore, not steel ingots, let alone fine steel knives. It cannot become a great tool without being honed.”

In Byron's opinion, the eldest prince [Earthquake Light] is too reckless, the second prince [Playboy] is too foolish, and the fourth prince [Hand of Fortune] is too naive.

If he were asked to choose a king, the best heir to the country should be the third son [Hero's Blood].

He has strong military power, attaches great importance to the army and guns, and is ambitious. In order to get foreign aid, he would send his sisters and even daughters.

He knew early on that he had to expand his territory and conquer the island tribes in preparation for his fifth-tier deity position, the God of Bacchus.

I can't say he was a wise ruler, but at least it should be okay to say he was a qualified monarch or a hero.

But he died in the succession system of the throne of the Sun Empire.

This issue obviously goes back to the debate over whether ancient dynasties should establish the eldest son or the most capable one.

The reason why it is popular to establish the eldest son as the heir is that there are fixed criteria for judgment, and it is easy to tell who is the eldest and who is the youngest; however, establishing the most capable person as the heir has always been the root of disasters and chaos, because there is no quantitative standard for distinguishing the capable from the foolish.

Every heir thinks he is the wisest, and as soon as the old king dies, they will immediately lead their supporters to beat the old king's brains out.

Once a country continues to engage in endless internal friction, it will not be far from its demise.

That is to say, the situation in the Sun Empire is special. It has a powerful ancestor and a group of fifth-level false gods to suppress it, so it dares to hold this kind of king selection ceremony.

It comprehensively tests the heir's strength, brains, connections, financial resources, etc., and is confined to a small circle of people. Even if all of them die, it cannot shake the foundation of the country.

Of course, the most important thing in all teaching tests is luck!
If you have the chance to hold onto a big thick leg, even a pig can be carried and taken off on the spot.

The combination of Byron and the fourth prince Atahualpa is a typical example of each other hugging each other's golden thighs. Byron hugged the golden thigh, and Atahualpa hugged the "golden thigh".

Each of them has their own strengths and needs, so they made a good deal.

After all, there is a saying that goes, the number one thing on the weapon list is always money.

Therese also turned around and glared at her chosen supporter, giving the Second Prince a stern look that made him dare not act presumptuously again.

He turned his head and looked at Byron again, his face was somewhat struggling, and his voice was extremely difficult:
"Your Highness, do you want us to give up the throne and give the [Sun Crown] to the Fourth Prince?"

If she were asked to offer her body and sleep with him, she would be extremely happy to do so, and would even feel that she was getting a great deal.

But helping the second prince ascend the throne and thereby "usurp power" to advance to the fifth rank is an obsession second only to saving her life, and it is almost touching her bottom line.

After all, Therese is a peak fourth-level person who is only half a step away from achieving immortality.

Even if they are dominated by Byron, they will instinctively resist instructions that seriously deviate from their fundamental interests, and may even break free from his control.

How much benefit can be gained by [Dominating Lower-Level Servants] will also test Byron's own balancing skills.

Byron realized that he couldn't push too hard, and he didn't actually intend to let the second prince quit.

He lowered his head and glanced at the [Blood Cup] in Therese's hand.

It was discovered that this level 0 holy relic had two main abilities:
“First, even if it is a broken zero-level holy relic, it once contained seventh-level divine blood, which is enough to touch the divine realm and has an extremely high status.

[Night Demon] can perform sacrificial ceremonies to it in the same way as worshipping gods, and obtain responses, protection, and gifts, thereby greatly improving the upper limit of one's own abilities.

It was this ability that Therese relied on when she possessed Princess Potta to resist the snooping of the logbook.

Second, pouring someone's blood into the cup will produce a wonderful purification effect.

Anyone who drinks the blood from the blood cup will be able to possess the abilities of the blood's owner for 24 hours, perfectly disguising the other person's appearance and identity.

Even a fifth-order [false god] or a sixth-order [demigod] would have difficulty distinguishing them."

There was a hint of joy in Byron's eyes, as if he had known this would be the case.

Especially when he saw the second ability, he felt relieved and a plan to lure out the third party was completely formed.

He smiled at Therese, who was struggling.
"No, on the contrary, we are ready to give the throne to His Royal Highness the Second Prince!"
