Chapter 237 The countdown begins!
"Don't worry about that!"
When Hogg said this, someone on the other side of the subspace was saying the same thing.
Looking at the demon named Mengsk still talking in front of him, Skarbrand always felt that it was fooling him, but with his brain capacity, he couldn't tell what was wrong.
Ever since being thrown out of the Demon Realm by Khorne, Skarbrand has been looked down upon and his strength has been reduced by more than half. The great demons that he once looked down upon no longer even look at him.
Thinking about how he used to be so glorious, but in the end, he became a stray dog, Skarbrand felt extremely painful and could only wander around the factory where he fell.
But even creatures of the warp like demons have their own circle of friends. Although Skarbrand is down and out, there are always one or two relatives and friends who can show him the way forward.
Through the introduction of a great demon named Saipan, Skarbrand heard about the existence of the Burning Legion. After learning that the organization was recruiting talents, Skarbrand went to apply for the job with an attitude of giving it a try.
Skarbrand, who had just arrived at the Burning Legion, was warmly received. Even the snacks on the table were high-quality soul crystals, which made Skarbrand feel a unique respect.
But what the demon named Mengsk said next made him feel something was wrong. Even though he was abandoned by Khorne, the loyal chief demon still missed his former master.
When he heard that he wanted to change his faith, Skarbrand said viciously:
"Although I chose to join the Burning Legion, it does not mean that I will no longer serve my Lord. I always believe that He will return to His previous state and become the God of War again."
As a professional PUA master, Mengsk is the original member of the Burning Legion. Even though his strength has not yet reached the level of a great demon, everyone in the entire legion knows his loyalty to his master.
Over the years, Mengsk, as a recruiter, has deceived countless demons into joining. Even though Skarbrand was once a chief, he believes more in the polluting nature of psionic energy.
In order to appease this muscular man, Mengsk naturally would not forcibly distort his beliefs. After all, he really couldn't defeat him. No demon would be stupid enough to fight a Khorne demon in close combat. He could only sincerely agree:
"It's up to you! We in the Burning Legion believe in managed democracy, and we are free in our beliefs. To be honest, the Legion is full of frustrated demons from various factions.
Based on the principle of mutual assistance, we formed this organization just to have someone to lean on. You don’t want to be looked down upon anymore, right?”
Perhaps because he had just experienced the feeling of being exiled, Skarbrand nodded for some reason and actually felt that the Burning Legion sounded not bad.
After seeing the big fool's expression relax, Mengsk sneered in his heart. You know, the plate of soul crystal on the table that the big fool was almost finished eating had added ingredients.
It has long been filled with psionic residues, and the legion base is filled with psionic energy. Even if you are the king of the world, your IQ will drop dramatically.
Knowing that the way of PUA is to flatter and suppress, since the benefits are given, it is necessary to set a framework for the opponent to make the opponent mentally exhausted. Mengsk immediately proposed the conditions for joining the Legion:
"Skarbrand! Although you were once the chief of the great god Khorne and all the demons know your abilities, you have just arrived after all, so I cannot give you too high a position. Just be the head coach of the legion!
But don't worry, our legion believes that the greater the ability, the greater the power. As long as you work hard, the legion will not let anyone down.
But you have to remember one thing. Although we have freedom of belief here, the Lord of Black Light is the official belief of the Legion. Even if you are just fooling around, you have to say something, right?"
Hearing that there was so much freedom within the legion that even the official beliefs could be fooled, Skarbrand felt that he was being a little out of touch with the times if he didn't agree. He took the contract and signed a 1000-year contract.
A satisfied Mengsk flicked the contract in his hand and handed him an e-cigarette, and the two demons started puffing smoke.
Following Mengsk's deliberate guidance, Skarbrand began to pour out his grievances to him, and the two of them got along better and better as they talked, and the smoke that was spiked was slowly inhaled into his body. Mengsk, feeling that it was about time, bid farewell to the chief demon who had once served under Khorne in a manner that no one could find fault with.
Before leaving, Mengsk patted Skarbrand's strong body and said:
"Good brother, you will definitely become a legend among the demons. Your name will resound throughout every corner of the Soul Sea. The Lord of Black Light will bless you on your way forward."
Listening to this blessing that he had never enjoyed before, Skarbrand felt that he had come to the right place this time. In a daze, he seemed to see several tentacles twisting towards him.
For some reason, Skarbrand suddenly felt a little dazed, and replied inexplicably:
"Praise the Lord of Black Light! I will live up to the Legion's cultivation."
Seeing that the huge demon had left, Mengsk changed his previous friendly attitude and said respectfully to the figure with hideous bone wings:
"Lord Shafulin, the task you assigned to me is completed. Do you think so?"
"Well done, this is your reward."
A huge psionic crystal was thrown into Mengsk's hands. Shafulin would naturally not be stingy with this useful demon.
Mengsk actually did not lie just now. In the Burning Legion, the greater the ability, the greater the power. As long as you do a good job, you can be promoted quickly. However, it is not certain what kind of demon you will become after the promotion.
Watching Mengsk leave happily, Shaforin looked at Zerus, who had become a demon fortress, and fell into deep thought, muttering:
"Hogg! Are you sure this is really possible?"
....................................
On the other side of the physical universe, two people and a dog stared blankly at the production line in front of them, doubting their lives.
Hogg, who thought Goda was a special case, discovered that all the new dog-men were gigantic in appearance, which was completely different from the bodies he designed.
This made Magnus, who had grasped Hogg's weakness, utter a meaningless taunt:
"Aren't you known as the number one person in the empire's biotechnology? Why are the dog-men now completely different from the ones before? Could it be that your skills are not up to par?"
Although he really wanted to refute this sunburned Ogryn, the facts were right in front of him and Hogg could not make it up out of thin air. He had to remember this incident secretly and return it when he had the chance.
While Hogg was repeatedly checking the machine and comparing it with the genetic map in his brain, a corner deep in the subspace became lively again.
However, the golden figure was missing from this gathering. There were only four guys who could hardly contain themselves and were whispering to each other.
