You want to force me to be the devil, right?

Chapter 161: The stingy former demon king! I want your demon king's treasure!

"Huh? Do you think these things are rare? When this Demon King was alive, he used dragon hearts as snacks, you know?"

The former Demon King said proudly.

"But that was when you were alive. Now you..."

Shane chuckled and shrugged, a hint of teasing in his tone.

"whispering sound!!"

The former Demon King clicked his tongue, then said to Shane, "Hurry up and choose! You can only choose one!"

"Okay~"

Shane smiled and looked at the items in the treasure chest except for the girl's body.

His eyes swept over and landed on a strange ring.

The golden ring was inlaid with a ruby ​​that looked like a snake's eye, flashing an eerie red light.

"This ring?"

Shane reached out curiously, wanting to take the ring out of the treasure chest.

"Hey, hey, hey! Don't take this! It's not good for you!"

The former Demon King quickly gave Shane a kind reminder.

"?"

Shane raised his eyebrows slightly, but he was sure that this thing was definitely a good thing!

However, he didn't need to make a decision so quickly.

He has to choose carefully!
When the former Demon King saw this, Shane really withdrew his hand and then breathed a sigh of relief.

I murmured in my heart: That is the Hell Ring made from the Eye of the Hell Snake, my great treasure! I can't let him take it away!

“This one seems good.”

Shane's eyes were once again drawn to a spade-shaped sapphire.

It is as dazzling as the aurora, and a faint fragrance lingers around the gem.

"This! This won't work either! It doesn't suit you!"

The former Demon King spoke again.

This is a gem made of polar crystal, priceless!
I finally got it with great difficulty!
You can't take it away!
"..."

Upon hearing this, Shane smiled.

Unexpectedly, this former demon king is quite protective of his food.

After a round of selection, and after being rejected by the former Demon King, Shane asked her, "You won't give me this, and you won't give me that. What happened to your promise that I can choose whatever I want?"

"It won't work! None of these will work! You can pick any others!" The former Demon King kept on instructing Shane.

"Are you sure? If those just mentioned are not allowed, I can choose the others?" Shane asked.

"Of course, those are the only ones that won't work. The others are up to you!" The Demon King nodded in response.

"But what if you change your mind?" Shane spread his hands. "You said I could choose whatever I wanted, but now nothing works!"

"If I regret it again, I...I will give you my Demon King's treasure!" The former Demon King said to Shane.

"You also have a Demon King's Noble Phantasm?" Shane asked the former Demon King in confusion.

"Hmph~ Of course~"

The former Demon King snorted and laughed, "My Demon King's Noble Phantasm is a giant butterfly! It's more powerful than you!"

"Oh, I see. I thought..."

"What do you think?"

"nothing!"

Shane shook his head, then smiled and pointed to the girl lying in the treasure chest, who was the predecessor of the previous demon king.

"I want this."

"what?"

When the former Demon King saw Shane’s choice, he was stunned.

How could she forget her own body!
"No! This is absolutely not possible!" The former Demon King immediately refused.

"No way again? Then you finally regret it and want to give me your Demon King's treasure." Shane said to the former Demon King.

"Damn it! Are you kidding me? Can I give you this?" the former Demon King said with gritted teeth, "Little devil! Don't push your luck!"

"It's you who doesn't keep your word, okay?" Shane spread out his hands and said speechlessly.

"Me!" The former Demon King was speechless for a moment. After a long silence, he said to Shane, "Except for my body, you can choose anything else."

"Pick three?"

"!"

"Ok!"

The former Demon King finally had no choice but to compromise with Shane.

This previous body is her only hope for resurrection and also her most precious thing.

Everything else doesn’t matter!

"Then I'll take it."

Shane smiled slightly and took the ring and the heart gem away.

And the last thing he chose was a butterfly brooch.

"you?"

The former Demon King's lips began to tremble when he saw Shane take the butterfly brooch.

That is of course her Demon King's Noble Phantasm!
But now!
It's Shane's turn!

"I'll take these three." Shane nodded with satisfaction, then said to the former Demon King, "Please write down the resurrection materials you need. I'll help you find them when I have time."

"Oh."

The former Demon King sniffed and suddenly felt much better.

After taking away the treasure of the previous Demon King, Shane immediately opened the Blood Gate of the Holy Virgin Monastery and headed to the Orchid Mine.

Naturally, he needed to summon some more skeletons for mining.

In addition, this item is obtained after consuming one hundred Demon Crystals to unlock the Tomb of the Dead.

After Shane arrived at the Orchid Mine, he immediately consumed eighty Demon King Crystals and recruited four hundred skeleton warriors, two hundred skeleton archers, and two hundred skeleton mages.

Of course, they have to hide in the Orchid Mineral Veins to ensure that they are not discovered.

The purpose of the two hundred skeleton archers and two hundred skeleton mages is naturally to guard against those who sneak into the Orchid Mine.

After the summoning was completed, a prompt immediately popped up in Shane's sight:
[Consume 100 Demon King Crystals to unlock a new item - Soul Chain! ]

[Soul Chain (0/10): Consumes 20 Demon King Crystals! ]

[Soul Chain: Can imprison the target's soul in a special soul space (Red Dragon Dream Realm)! Time limit: 24 hours.]

"Imprison the target's soul in the Red Dragon's Dreamland?"

"and many more?"

"That's the effect, and it only lasts for 20 hours, but it consumes Demon King Crystals?"

"Robbing money?"

"wrong!"

"The effect must be incredible!"

Shane was certain that the imprisoned soul would give him some kind of reward!
Otherwise, these 20 Demon King Crystals would be too expensive!
but……

Shane pondered and thought, and it was obvious that he had not decided on who to use this thing on.

After all, it's obvious that this thing is used against enemy targets.

"Let's buy one first as a backup."

Shane then bought a soul chain, which cost 20 Demon King Crystals.

The soul chain is not a physical entity, but a blue fluorescent color similar to the soul.

The entire soul chain is only a few dozen centimeters long and can only be used as a bracelet at most.

"Never mind, small ones are cute too."

Shane shrugged his shoulders and put the soul chain into the Demon King's space.

Immediately afterwards, he left the Youlan Mine and returned to Tisia's manor.

The moment Shane stepped into the manor, he found the princess's servants waiting quietly outside the manor.

"The princess is here?"

Shane raised his eyebrows slightly and walked towards the inner room.

The moment he walked into the house, Princess Chenxi immediately stood up and said to Shane, "Master Shane! I have something important to tell you!"
