*****

But will I expend energy to make them stronger? When there is a whole army waiting for me?

Of course not!

If I have that thought, I might as well go find some more ingredients!

After all, with the feast, the gap between me and these dependents will become wider and wider...

I tapped the scales on my cheeks with my dragon claws, but I really wanted to see what those guys in Voltan City wanted to do!

I looked in the direction of Voltan City with murderous intent in my eyes.

Want to slay a dragon? Then you can try it!

---

In Voltan City, the Voltan Family.

"Patriarch, the dead man has delivered the letter to the black dragon's territory!" a man in black said to Victor respectfully.

"What's the other party's reaction?" Victor was reading an ancient magic book and asked.

"The other party's subordinates ate our messenger, but the black dragon didn't seem to have much reaction!" the black-robed man said suspiciously. He didn't quite understand the reason why the Patriarch did this.

"The black dragon is a guy who won't act unless there's profit. No matter how special he is, there is a high probability that he will not come because of this letter. After all, it is the instinct of every creature to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages..." Victor said more.

"Patriarch, why don't we use tricks to get that black dragon to come to Voltan City? Our family is so powerful, and with so many mercenaries and adventurers, many of whom are intermediate-level spellcasters, it should be enough to deal with that black dragon, right?" the man in black raised his own question.

"I have my own conclusions. Don't worry, just follow the order," Victor said lightly.

Although the man in black felt that something was wrong, he still chose to obey out of his trust in the Patriarch for so many years.

"By the way, Patriarch, all the newly mined magic iron ore has been transported to the city!"

"Continue to send it to the magic circle to strengthen the defense of Voltan City!" Victor said without raising his head.

"As ordered!"

---

A few days later, Voltan City felt strange because today was the day the Voltan family announced they would hold a dragon-slaying mobilization meeting.

But the strange thing was that when the mercenary groups and adventurers gathered in the central square of Voltan City, they did not see the Patriarch of the Voltan Family.

"Geraint, something seems wrong here!" As a forest elf, Delia was very sensitive to the surrounding elemental atmosphere.

And this place gave her a very uncomfortable feeling.

"There is indeed something wrong here, but I feel safe!" Geraint, the blond man, showed a bright smile.

Originally, I wanted to play casually, but there really seemed to be something interesting here.

A golden light flashed in Geraint's eyes, and he was looking forward to it.

At the same time, Victor, in the Voltan family, stood within a small purple magic circle.

His eyes were full of fanaticism.

"Patriarch, those mercenary groups and adventurers have arrived!" At this moment, the man in black walked up to Victor and said.

"Very good!"

Victor suddenly stretched out his right hand and stabbed into the black-robed man's chest, grabbing a bloody heart.

"Patriarch..." The man in black looked at the blood hole in his chest in disbelief.

As a devil, his vitality was indeed very tenacious, but when not transformed, he was an ordinary human being.

Under Victor's sudden attack, he had no power to resist.

But those things were no longer important. He stared at Victor.

"Why do you want to ask?" Victor chuckled.

He looked at the blood on his hand.

"In this world, the lifespan of ordinary people is as short as a meteor. Even if we are demon descendants, we only live a few decades longer than ordinary people!"

"But dragons, demons, and elves are born with such a long lifespan. To them, we are fleeting dreams. The only way out for us low-level half-devils is to transform into devils in the Nine Hells, or become the most low-level devils!"

Victor's eyes were a little excited.

"And it's impossible for me to be a low-level devil! I, Victor, established the Voltan family from nothing. Even if I become a devil, I will be a powerful devil!" Victor's eyes filled with black mist.

At the same time, eight thick black and purple beams of light rose one after another beside the entire Voltan City.

The purple light curtain instantly enveloped the entire city.

Neither the city's residents nor the merchants and mercenaries who came here panicked.

They were in Voltan City, the powerful Voltan family's territory!

Any enemy would have to weigh their strength.

All the mercenaries and adventurers in the square looked curiously at the scene.

Geraint and his party looked at the magic circle with seriousness.

"This magic circle is not right, it doesn't look like a defensive circle!" Geraint said, looking at the magic circle in front of her.

"Brother, this magic circle seems to be a trap, and there are other things mixed in!" said a young silver-haired girl in a red mage robe.

She was Geraint's younger sister, Algerta. Both were excellent rangers. They met the elf Delia on the road and saved her by coincidence.

The three of them traveled together.

At this time, black smoke began to emerge from various places in the city.

Some ordinary people in the city felt uncomfortable all over.

A gorgeously dressed man touched his cheek, and his eyeballs and face fell off immediately.

But he didn't seem to notice it. His body began to change slowly.

His skin turned pale, his hair fell out, his nails grew longer, and his teeth became hideous.

This scene began to play out everywhere in Voltan City.

"Damn it, it's the breath of the bottomless abyss!" At this moment, golden flames seemed to appear in Geraint's eyes.

"The bottomless abyss? Is it the bottomless abyss we understand?" Delia also looked around in shock.

Some adventurers with relatively low strength nearby had turned into pale-skinned monsters and began to show their ferocious fangs at the living people around them.

"It's because someone summoned some auras from the bottomless abyss with some kind of evil summoning ritual, and these auras have already begun to pollute the city!" Argenta looked around vigilantly.

"Then what are these monsters?" Delia was relieved when she heard that they were just breaths from the bottomless abyss. Fortunately, they were not real...

"Is it because the body and soul of mortals have not been fully assimilated by the bottomless abyss, so they can only become this kind of soul?"

At this time, a mercenary beside them couldn't take it anymore. He directly took out his weapon and started attacking the souls beside him.

"Don't..." Before Geraint finished speaking, the mercenary had already chopped off the soul's head.

"These monsters are nothing more than..." Before the mercenary finished speaking, the soul's body exploded.

Immediately, a green poisonous mist filled the surrounding area of more than 20 meters.

Those adventurers who were completely unprepared around them were directly caught by the poisonous mist.

Immediately, there were screams one after another.

Geraint opened a red flame shield with one hand.

"The soul has a characteristic, that is, when it dies, the corpse will disintegrate and release a cloud of poisonous mist!" Geraint said lightly.

But the other people didn't know this. Although they easily killed the soul, the poisonous mist cloud also easily killed them.

And under the influence of the breath of the bottomless abyss, they became a new soul again.

"There is absolutely something wrong with the Voltan family; none of them has come forward!" Argenta watched as more and more people died.

Because most people in Voltan City were actually mortals, and mortals had no resistance to the breath of the bottomless abyss.

Those warriors and spellcasters had also learned to be smart, and they dared not attack these souls at will.

Boom~

A huge stone pillar on the square fell, and a dark portal opened in its place.

An evil roar came from inside.

Several human warriors looked at the portal nervously.

Puff~

A strip of red meat with barbs instantly engulfed two soldiers, followed by a creepy chewing sound.

A huge creature came out from the teleportation array.

It was a heavily armored, canine-like creature with no eyes.

Its mouth, composed of two pairs of jaws, could faintly reveal flesh and bones.

A barbed tongue, with saliva sticking to it, looked greedily at the surrounding humans like a snake.

As it exhaled and inhaled, its body continued to stretch, and the four legs with claws grabbed the ground.

Immediately, they rushed toward the mercenaries, and more than a dozen of these monsters appeared behind the portal.

The armor on this monster was almost invulnerable; neither weapons nor fireballs could hurt them. Its long tongue harvested everyone present.

Moreover, they also had spell-like abilities. The soldiers who approached them felt paralyzed and lost their lives unconsciously.

Some spellcasters had already fled to the edge of the city, but the magic circle firmly blocked them. Even if they attacked, it would be useless.

"Brother, is it a Yugoloth Demon? Should we leave, or...?" Argenta asked, looking at Geraint in front of her.

As the hound of the Yugoloth army, the Yugoloth demon appearing here meant there were more troublesome existences.

"Since there is an evil thing, it must not be let go!" Geraint said firmly.

"Sister, protect Delia and yourself. I'll deal with these hounds or see if I can deal with them! Such evil shall not be allowed in this plane!" Geraint took off his cloak.

"Geraint..." Delia was stunned as soon as she called out.

She saw endless golden rays of light erupting from Geraint's body.

"Roar~"

A dragon's roar came from Geraint's position.

A true dragon with golden scales all over appeared in midair.

"It's a dragon!"

"It's still a Gold Dragon! We're saved!"

"It's really a Gold Dragon!"

---

I observed the chaos in Voltan City through the chain of souls.

When I deliberately let the captain of the Voltan family escape before, I not only placed the twisted seed on him, but also the spiritual chain.

So, I could clearly see the chaos around them, and I also found a problem.

The guy who was parasitized by the twisted seed seemed not to be affected by the breath of the bottomless abyss.

The breath of the bottomless abyss was swallowed up by the twisted seeds in his body when he approached this mist.

Gold Dragon!

The dazzling golden light immediately attracted my attention, but this guy actually only wanted to run outside.

"Go to the central square, or die!"

My voice suddenly rang in the heart of the man in white armor, startling him.

"Who are you?" He looked around vigilantly but found nothing.

I didn't bother to talk to him, so I directly activated the Seed of Distortion.

Suddenly, the man in the white armor felt a sharp pain.

This kind of pain made him, a veteran who had fought countless battles, kneel on the ground in agony. The feeling as if his body was covered with bugs was too painful.

"I...I...will!"

"What's your name?" I asked in the man's mind.

"Great existence, his subordinate is named Just!" The man in the white armor said with a pale face after being tortured just now.

"Just, behave well. I will guarantee that you will not die!" I said.

"Thank you, Master!" Just said excitedly, deeply feeling the despair in Voltan City at this moment.

It would be nice to be enslaved if he could get out alive...

At this time, my body had already reached 5,000 meters above the city of Voltan, and the city of Voltan looked like a big purple eggshell from a high altitude.

It was impossible to see any movement inside.

It seemed that the whole city was separated from the world.

"This is the Abyss Invasion? No, this is far from being an Abyss Invasion!" I stared at the city in front of me and shook my head.

The real bottomless abyss invades the world, which is very terrifying. Many powerful demons are just advanced troops in numbers of thousands.

The endless demons of the infinite layers of the abyss would make any world feel hopeless. Even a few thousand are enough to put the world into the dark ages as they reproduce.

Not to mention the gaze of the will of the abyss at the end; that is the most deadly thing for a world!

The Bottomless Abyss has swallowed up many planes, and it already has a very complete process.

First is infiltration, then pollution, and then control. After this world is really made into what the abyss wants, it will sink completely…

Becoming one of the infinite layers.

Yugoloth, a hound-type demon, is cannon fodder when the abyss invades large worlds.

But it's not considered weak, after all, it is the bodyguard of some powerful demons in normal times.

It's killing the Quartet here!

I continued to observe the gold dragon!

This guy seemed to be only about 15 meters in size, which was still in the category of juvenile dragons.

Ah, Gold Dragons—their unwavering commitment to justice and eradicating evil is as inherent as their golden scales. It courses through their very essence, driving them to become fierce defenders of virtue across realms. They are admired, almost mythic figures—the Golden Knights and Paladins of the multiverse, bound by justice and an insatiable need to uphold their ideals. Truly, it's both awe-inspiring and a bit wearisome how their zeal for righteousness knows no limits...

But as the most powerful gold dragons among Metallic Dragons, this guy's combat power should really not be that weak.

At least in my view, this gold dragon can beat my two lovely black dragon sisters and all the dragons under me.

A strong body, powerful magic, and that high-temperature flame breath.

In the face of the siege by seven or eight Yugoloth demons, he did not lose the advantage at all.

He even killed three of them!

It looks impressive!

However, the Yugoloth demon still has its unique features as a hunting dog of the bottomless abyss.

Their physical defense is very strong, and their resistance to fire and toxins is not weak at all, which prevents the gold dragon's flame breath from causing too much damage.

Coupled with their body's agility and coordinated operations, it still caused some trouble for the Yugoloths.

But in Geraint's view, it's only a matter of time before he solves these guys.

"Argenta, your brother..."

"Delia, I'm sorry, we siblings have special identities, so we've been keeping it from you!" Argenta smiled awkwardly.

Delia didn't say much. After all, the metal dragons belonged to the lawful camp, and they had helped her before.

But whenever she thought of her former captain having his heart ripped out by the Queen of Darkness, and her teammate having half their head bitten off, she couldn't calm down for a long time.

Fear of dragons.

At this time, there was a problem with the gold dragon in the sky.

Just when Geraint seized the opportunity and was about to tear the head off a Yugoloth with his powerful dragon claws, a huge green claw grabbed at his neck.

Geraint reacted quickly and met the opponent's attack with his dragon claws.

Bang~

The gold dragon's claws and the green claws collided fiercely.

The gold dragon waved its wings to stabilize its position.

And the creature that had sneaked up also emerged from the air.

It was a creature with huge bat wings and thick green skin.

It looked like a giant gargoyle.

There were razor-like claws on its limbs, webbed ears, and two black devil horns atop its head!

"A Vrock demon from the bottomless abyss! Creatures like you have come out!"

Moreover, this one was a relatively powerful existence among the Vrock demons.

The gold dragon recognized this creature!

"Gold Dragon, you are very good!" The Vrock demon bared its fangs.

It praised the Abyssal tongue.

"Gold Dragon, you shouldn't be here!" Victor's figure appeared on the ground.

At this time, the patriarch of the Voltan family was surrounded by black abyssal breath.

"Patriarch, why are you doing this?" A young man in gorgeous attire from the Voltan family shouted excitedly.

He couldn't understand why the patriarch would do this!

"I don't want to be a low-level devil, so I can only communicate with the great bottomless abyss, hoping to please it and transform me into a more powerful demon!" Victor said.

"But..." Just as the young man was about to say something, he was caught by a Yugoloth demon behind him with its tongue and swallowed him whole.

"Hehe, don't blame me. Human nature is just like this. I'm simply stronger than you, so I still have more choices!" Victor's will to reach this point is naturally not something ordinary people can shake.

"Human, I appreciate your will!" The Vrock demon glanced at Victor and praised him.

The bottomless abyss is inherently chaotic and disorderly; family and friendship are meaningless. If Victor, a naturally evil and rational soul with strong willpower, is truly transformed into a demon by the abyss, his achievements will undoubtedly be significant.
