The Magic Empire for 20,000 years

Chapter 238 Following the master has a bright future!
One after another, steel golems and rock golems. Pursuing the routed demon army from behind, amidst a multitude of bizarre demons, searching for valuable prisoners of war, the intelligent algorithm array within the mind module continued its calculations:

"Fearful Demon, a low-level demon, has no value in capturing."

"Berserker Demon, a high-value capture target!"

Upon discovering a valuable demon, the steel golem immediately rushed forward, pinning the giant toad-like demon to the ground, knocking it unconscious with a flurry of punches, and then firmly locking it in with steel chains.

One by one, steel and rock golems pinned down all sorts of bizarre, ugly, and ferocious demons.

Elrian and the other Eldoran spellcasters were not idle either, pursuing the demon army in the air.

They fired emerald green dimensional anchor rays to block the demons' teleportation abilities, continuously casting force field prisons to imprison valuable demons in indestructible cages, or using spells such as sleep, soul binding, bewitching monsters, dominating monsters, and group monster immobilization to render the demons incapable of fighting.

The skeletal dragon also participated in this grand hunt, relentlessly pursuing the demon army from behind and using its massive claws to knock out high-ranking demons one by one.

Princess Lia, the Silver Dragon Frost, the Dwarf Priest Bag, and many other legendary figures from the allied forces did not remain on the sidelines; instead, they joined in to help Eldoron capture and subdue as many escaped demons as possible.

This was a step that had already been discussed when the battle plan was set up.

As promised by Elion, all the demon prisoners captured in this battle will be bound by the [Otherworldly Oath] and used for the subsequent work of "sealing the abyssal rift".

In this way, the opportunity to increase Eldoron's combat strength is rationalized as "a common task for all the allied forces"!
And so, as the sun rose, an utterly comical scene unfolded across the vast wilderness—

The coalition of mortal races from the material plane has become a brutal slave-hunting force, hunting and capturing demons everywhere.

One by one, the once ferocious demons ran and flew about in terror, screaming in agony at dawn.

If an unsuspecting outsider were to see this, they probably wouldn't know who the intruder is...

Leah casually imprisoned a severely wounded and dying giant bull demon in the [Force Field Prison]. Watching the demons flee in panic, she suddenly felt a pang of emotion:
Previously, the legions of the abyss had captured the poor elves.

And now, these brutal and evil monsters have met the same fate...

That's rather ironic.

……

The bright sun hangs high in the eastern sky, casting its light upon the earth.

On the wasteland near the abyss rift, all the demons have fled.

The war was won, and the allied forces successfully captured the Abyss Rift.

Blood-red, writhing, stretching from the sky to the abyssal fissures around the earth.

Under the crimson light, the dwarven priests who worshipped Moradin and the elven priests who worshipped the gods of Sidrian took out precious diamonds, placed their hands on the corpses of their comrades, and pure white light emanated from their hands, calling back the dead souls.

In this fantasy world, resurrection, while not as cheap and simple as in some games with almost no cost, is not too difficult either.

A sufficiently powerful priest can revive a corpse that has been dead for a period of time and whose soul has not been imprisoned or destroyed, after consuming precious diamond materials.

As for mages, if they are intelligent enough and have thoroughly analyzed the principles of divine spells, they can also simulate the priest's divine spells and bring their comrades back to life with the help of the ninth-level [Wish] spell or certain magical items.

From this perspective, in this fantastical world, only when the soul is imprisoned, destroyed, or devoured can it be considered true death.

A simple piercing of the heart and decapitation is merely another form of "serious injury".

However, bringing someone back from the brink of death also comes at a price.

Returning from death is also a huge burden on the soul, leading to a depletion of soul energy.

The resurrected person will be weakened for a period of time, and their level will be permanently reduced.

After a sixth-tier high-level warrior is resurrected, his level will generally drop to that of a fifth-tier mid-level warrior.

Furthermore, after being resurrected, one must rest and recuperate for a period of time in order to fully recover to this level of combat power.

In this battle, the allied forces, who had discussed their tactics in advance and were blessed by the "Victory Aura," were in a state of absolute advantage against the Abyss Legion, which was numerous but disorganized, and suffered very few casualties.

One by one, the dwarves and elves who had fallen in battle were resurrected and returned to their ranks with the help of their comrades.

The golems that were still intact were cleaning up the shattered remains scattered all over the ground.

—These remnants can be recycled and reused to create golems at half the cost of creating a brand new golem!
Princess Lia and a group of Sun Elf mages were retrieving the Sun Elf prisoners who had just taken refuge in the demiplane, excitedly telling them the good news of their victory:
"Everyone, we've won!"

"The demon army has been defeated by our allied forces."

"Furthermore, the Eastern Kingdom of Eldoron will seal the abyssal rift, preventing new demonic invaders from arriving." "The abyssal invasion is ending; the disaster is about to cease!"

Upon hearing this news, the pale, emaciated, and disheveled elves cheered, embraced each other, and wept tears of joy.

This catastrophe, which has lasted for nearly a year, is finally coming to an end.

the other side.

Elion watched as the high-ranking demon prisoners were successively subjected to [Otherworldly Bondage] by the mages, and a smile appeared on his face:
"We captured quite a lot of high-ranking demon prisoners in this battle."

"It even surpasses the total number of demon prisoners captured by Eldoron during this period!"

The demon prisoners who were sent out to stir up trouble and instigate a war between the two abyss legions were mostly killed in the battle just now because they risked their lives to provoke the war.

—Of course, for them, this might actually be a good thing. After dying and being reborn in the abyss, they can finally break free from that evil magical contract.

However, after this battle, they captured more than 100 demons who had reached the high-level!

This means that Eldoron will have a terrifying special forces unit composed entirely of high-ranking demons!

The only pity is that we didn't capture the legendary Demon General.

These top-tier demons were either killed in the previous great battle or teleported away immediately after their defeat, thus avoiding becoming prisoners of war.

"Latour, come here."

Elion waved to the Balor Ratul in the distance.

"What is it, Master?"

Latu flew over tremblingly, recalling the fierce battle just now, his heart filled with turbulent emotions.

In the past, countless minor lords like Latour held true demon lords in awe.

Not to mention those renowned demon lords who have reached the high-level legendary rank!

Unexpectedly, less than two months after arriving in the material plane, he defeated the legions of two powerful demon lords in succession, achieving feats far exceeding those of many centuries ago.

"Latour, now I have a powerful demon legion under my command."

"When it comes to commanding demons, no one here is better at it than you, a minor lord."

"Therefore, from now on, you will command this demon legion of Eldoron."

As he spoke, Elion pointed to the captured demons who were about to be subjected to the [Otherworldly Bond] spell in turn.

"Huh? I... command so many powerful high-ranking demons!"

"These demons who were formerly loyal to the three great demon lords, Koschitch, Yenogu, and Buffment, are all under my command!"

Latour was flattered and felt a great sense of satisfaction.

Following my master seems alright...

It can still satisfy my desire for fighting and killing, which is much more comfortable than before...

Wait, what am I thinking? I don't want to be a slave to a mortal mage forever!
Elion ignored the conflicting thoughts in Ratu's mind and pointed to the wasteland, which had just been ravaged by a great battle, stained with the stench of demon blood, and where a few demons were still fleeing, and said to the Balrog Ratu:

"In order to launch an expedition to the material plane, Koschitch mobilized half of the main force within the Abyss Territory. This included a large number of demons, as well as Abyss Frost Giants, White Dragons, Winter Wolves, Frost Serpent Lizards, and other cold-type magical beasts."

"And we defeated this expeditionary force, inflicting heavy casualties on Koschough's forces."

"The Frost Giant tribe of the North, as the most loyal and powerful vassals of Koschitchet in the material plane, also suffered heavy losses in this battle."

"This is a golden opportunity for us, who are about to step into the abyss!"

Latour looked somewhat bewildered, not understanding Elian's meaning: "What opportunity?"

"Take advantage of the moment when Koschich's forces are at their weakest to completely defeat this demon lord, conquer the 23rd level of the Abyss [Iron Ice Plains], and seize his lordship!"

"Erian replied."

The Flame Demon Latu was dumbfounded.
