I Ascend to the Divine Throne through Arcane Means

Chapter 1724: Chapter 942: Subjugating the Balrog Flame Demon

Endless Abyss, 106th Layer,

[Desolate Flame Capital],

This Demon City, which once belonged to the Abyss Lord of the 106th layer, Legendary Fire Demon Dominic, has lost its former "buzz".

The more informed demons know that Dominic has already died at the hands of the Abyss Lord in the 107th layer [Nether Breath Domain], Legendary Lich Garrison.

The death of the Abyss Lord, who ruled the 106th layer of the Abyss Plane for many years, will undoubtedly bring a period of unrest.

Moreover, Garrison, who killed Dominic, seems only injured and not dead.

It is precisely because of this that, although Garrison has not invaded the 106th layer now, almost all demons know that it’s just a matter of time.

Therefore, to avoid the impending war, many Abyss Demons have directly left [Desolate Flame Capital].

For the demons, when Dominic was still around, there was still some possibility of resistance.

But now, even gathering all the demons would be no match for Legendary Lich Garrison.

Thus, no demon wants to stay here and confront Garrison.

Undoubtedly, as soon as Garrison recovers, [Desolate Flame Capital] will be his primary target.

Destroying [Desolate Flame Capital] would also mark the thorough end of Legendary Fire Demon Dominic’s reign.

Of course, it’s not that no demons have remained in [Desolate Flame Capital].

Besides those extremely weak Abyss Demons, Dominic’s subordinates, the Balrog Flame Demons, have stayed here.

These Balrog Flame Demons also know of Dominic’s death.

But relatively simple-minded, they do not intend to leave.

[Desolate Flame Capital] is their home, leaving here, they are nothing.

They are willing to guard it, even if the final result is to be buried with this city.

And Lis’s familiar Flame Demon Leader Rodrick is also stationed on the walls of [Desolate Flame Capital] at this moment, quietly waiting with the other Flame Demons for something.

The flames on their bodies have dimmed considerably, and they show no intention of healing the wounds left from previous battles.

And at this moment, a clap of thunder resounded above their heads.

The entire 106th layer trembled slightly, causing astonishment.

Many Balrog Flame Demons raised their heads, looking stunned at the sky above.

They can sense the surrounding heat gradually starting to decline.

And the comfortable feeling of the environment for the Balrog Flame Demons is slowly disappearing.

This signifies that a new lord has appeared in the 106th layer of the Abyss Plane.

The influence left by the deceased former Abyss Lord on this plane is slowly vanishing.

For the Balrog Flame Demons, this is decidedly bad news.

After all, it means Dominic has no chance of returning.

The last possibility of his return is gone.

And at this point, a figure appeared above [Desolate Flame Capital].

All the Balrog Flame Demons raised their heads, staring at the small-looking figure in the sky.

From this figure, they felt a familiar sense of oppression.

This is not just the oppression unique to the Legendary Rank, but also the aura of the Abyss Lord, reminiscent of Dominic.

Could this be the new Abyss Lord appearing in this layer of the Abyss Plane?

This thought emerged in the hearts of all Balrog Flame Demons.

They involuntarily gripped the weapons in their hands.

But soon, they noticed something was amiss.

This figure was not the Legendary Lich Garrison.

Nor did it have the repugnant feeling associated with the Undead.

Who is this Legendary Strongman?

Why suddenly appear?

What is happening with the Legendary Lich Garrison over there?

And at that moment, Lis slowly descended from the sky, gazing at the Balrog Flame Demons before him and said:

"Rodrick!"

Upon hearing the name, all the Balrog Flame Demons instinctively looked at the tall figure in the center.

Balrog Flame Demon stepped forward, looking at the figure in the sky, his eyes filled with a hint of doubt and disbelief.

The voice just now gave Rodrick a familiar feeling.

And upon seeing Lis, Rodrick almost couldn’t believe his eyes.

"Edward?"

"How are you..."

"Lord Edward, what are your orders?"

As the Flame Demon Leader, Rodrick is a bit more intelligent in spirit compared to the others of his kind.

He quickly realized that Edward’s current situation is completely different from before.

He is now not only a Legendary Strongman but also the new Abyss Lord of the 106th layer after Dominic!

This is undoubtedly better news for the Balrog Flame Demons.

After all, regardless, it is preferable to the Legendary Lich Garrison becoming the lord of this Abyss Plane.

So, Rodrick promptly set aside his prior thoughts of resistance and expressed respect to Edward.

No matter what Edward’s situation is, he is undoubtedly an absolute strongman before the Balrog Flame Demons!

Technically speaking, Edward’s relationship with the Balrog Flame Demons is quite good.

Because of Edward’s ability against the Undead and his exceptional equipment forging skills, many Balrog Flame Demons hold Edward in high regard.

Thank goodness, thank goodness!

Thinking of this, Rodrick involuntarily sighed in relief.

At least, there is no situation of targeting or bullying Edward by the Balrog Flame Demons.

Otherwise, it would be troublesome today!

"Rodrick, I have become the lord of this Abyss Plane."
