Chapter 571 Chonglou's Request
Except for those with congenital defects, the demons can basically use magic power, and naturally there is also a magician system like the one in Walterlan Continent. From low to high, they are respectively demon spirits, magic masters, earthly demon messengers, heavenly demon messengers, divine demon messengers, and demon lords. The end point of all demons is the legendary Demon King.
The average magical talent of the demons is very high, and their lifespan is several times that of humans. High-end combat forces such as gods and demons and demon lords account for a relatively high proportion.
The original demon is equivalent to a god in the demon world and is revered by all demons. The weakest first-level original demon can crush the Demon Lord. Only the original demon can be called the Demon King.
However, there are very few demons who can become demon kings through practice, and there are only one in a million.
Some demon kings in the demon world come from the mortal world. A third-order original demon like K'anquil is a typical representative. He was born from the evil thoughts accumulated by Lord Kled for thousands of years.
Those demons who have practiced hard and broken through step by step to become demon kings still have a lifespan limit and can be killed by more powerful beings. Although they can barely join the ranks of demon kings, they are more like mortals.
However, those foreign demon kings are completely different. They are born from the desires of the people in the mortal world. They are the purest evil, almost immortal, and have no lifespan limit at all. They are more like god-like existences.
Therefore, it is ironic that most of the original demons in the Demon Realm, which is the highest fighting force, are not locals, but foreign demon kings from the mortal world.
Only demons that have cultivated to the level of Demon Lord are qualified to follow the Demon King to invade the mortal world. This is why the demons that people on the Walterlan continent see can fly, because any demon soldier is a Demon Lord.
This also gives people the illusion that the demons are absurdly strong, but in fact, due to the limitations of their innate talents, most demons cannot become original demons. There are also countless weak demons like Chonglou in the demon world who cannot even fly.
"Don't demons know magic? Why do they have to rely on physical wings to fly? Isn't that redundant?"
This is the question that puzzles Bai Hao the most, because in this world of swords and magic, the ability to fly has little to do with whether or not one has wings. Humans, dwarves, elves and other intelligent creatures don't have wings either, so can't they all use flying magic to achieve flight?
Chonglou showed an extremely yearning expression when he heard this, "Even the powerful ones at the Demon Lord level can only fly with wings, and only the Demon Lords can use magic to fly. That is the end point of all demons' training..."
Chonglou was still muttering to himself when he suddenly felt his feet lighten and the solid ground disappeared in an instant. He actually flew up shakily and then soared directly into the sky. His speed was even faster than the magic dragon he had ridden when he was a child.
"Fly, fly, fly up, what's going on, it turns out I am the original devil?" Chonglou's eyes were full of shock, looking at the ground a thousand meters below in disbelief. Lao Hei had now turned into a small black dot.
Bai Hao curled his lips and said, "How could there be an original demon as weak as you? This just proves another hypothesis of mine."
"Guess, guess?"
"Well," Bai Hao controlled Chonglou's body to fly quickly in the air, and it seemed to be no different from his own flying technique. Then he said lightly: "Although I don't know why you demons can't use magic to fly, but in the mortal world, every high-level magician can easily perform flying techniques, and naturally can also control objects to fly."
"How enviable! Everyone in the mortal world actually has the strength of an original demon. If my bones were not damaged, I could only reach the level of Demon Lord at most..."
Bai Hao was speechless after hearing this, but he was too lazy to explain anything to Chonglou. It was good enough to just scare him. If everyone in the mortal world really possessed the power of an original demon, then both the worlds of gods and demons would have been conquered long ago.
"Root bone damage?"
"Yes, three years ago, I had an accident when I was dueling with someone in the Magic City Arena. The source of magic power in my heart was severely damaged. I have lost the qualification to break through. I can only be a magician for the rest of my life."
Chonglou's face was gloomy when he said this. In his opinion, his tragic fate started when his bones were destroyed. After that, disasters one after another took away everything important around him. Now, only his sister Xuejian and the old unicorn black beast below are left.
"You're already healed," Bai Hao said casually, "Just now when I was treating your external injuries in the cave, I also cured all your hidden diseases, including the old injury on your heart."
"..."
Chonglou covered his chest in disbelief when he heard this, and then tried to use his magic power again. It was indeed much more comfortable than before, without any tingling sensation at all. Chonglou once again had a healthy body.
"Lord, Lord!"
Chonglou's eyes were filled with tears, and he shouted excitedly in the sky, which really scared Bai Hao. Then he expressed his sincere gratitude: "I will never forget such a great favor. If you have any instructions in the future, please tell me. Chonglou will go through fire and water without hesitation, even if it is..."
"That's enough," Bai Hao said calmly as he looked at Chonglou who was having trouble controlling his emotions, "Let's go to the Magic City to get some money first, and then I'll assign you various tasks. As long as you work hard for me, you'll definitely get some benefits."
Bai Hao was well aware of the principle of sticks and candies. After all, he couldn't keep an eye on Chonglou all the time. He had a lot of things to do in the Walterland continent, so it was necessary to have a loyal demon to do things for him.
Appropriate threats and rewards can control a person well and give him unlimited motivation.
"Hey, Master, I actually have one thing to ask of you, oh no, two things..."
Bai Hao's mouth twitched when he heard this, thinking that Chonglou was indeed a demon, he was getting ahead of himself so quickly, he must be given a good beating.
However, Bai Hao decided to listen to what Chonglou had to say first. If it was some boring material desires, he would just refuse directly and then scold him harshly.
"Tell me about it."
Bai Hao's tone was calm and he seemed to be very easy to talk to. Chonglou hurriedly said, "Can you trouble the master to return to the ground first? My old black cat is still tied to the tree. It is very greedy and has eaten up all the grass around it. If it is tied there all the time, it will starve to death..."
Bai Hao was a little surprised. He didn't expect that Chonglou was after the old and skinny unicorn black horse below. So he didn't refuse and let Chonglou fly down directly.
Chonglou came to the dead tree. Laohei looked up and breathed towards him, wagging his tail low. He seemed a little tired. His skinny body looked extremely pitiful, as if he had not had a full meal for a long time.
"My Lord, take Lao Hei with you. Perhaps he will be useful to the Demon Hunting Division in the future..."
"Forget it," Bai Hao glanced at Lao Hei and said calmly, "Remove the nose band and the reins. It's already so old, it's better to let it go free. I just noticed a large piece of grass nearby from high in the sky, which is enough for it to live."
However, this time Chonglou did not obey obediently, but said excitedly: "Master, Laohei and I grew up together, and we can't live without each other. If I leave alone, Laohei will be so sad that he will faint!"
