The Hero in Exile

"I advise you to surrender. If you surrender, you still have a chance to survive. If you lay down your weapons, you can still be your companions."

"Put down your weapons. Our Demon Lord Moran is right here. Do you want to raise your weapons and rebel against your king?"

This is the third day that the Demon King's army has been besieging the city of Light.

Elena and Bourne routinely used magic-enhanced loudspeakers to persuade the soldiers inside to surrender.

The soldiers inside don't have a very high fighting spirit. If their fighting spirit is reduced like this every day, the siege will definitely be twice as effective with half the effort.

Before the siege, they began to flee when they suffered a little damage in the tug-of-war in the wild, and they kept pushing forward until they reached the next stronghold, where they soon arrived at the foot of the city wall.

Maybe they don't want internal strife or they see that the former devil has really returned, so things have been developing exceptionally smoothly until now.

"Oh, you came again last night?"

"Yes, it's much more than before. At this rate, it won't be long before the enemy loses morale and loses their resistance."

Every night Bourne would lead a team to patrol outside the city walls, and every time they would see demon soldiers sneaking out.

"I don't know if that guy Bei Zuoxi has gone mad. It's ridiculous that the old man wants to be king."

"Haha, yes."

Born agreed. He had been following Elena for some time and was still not used to the contrast between her appearance and language. He had won a battle and drank together before.

Bourne didn't expect that after just a few glasses of beer, Elena was already completely drunk, and the most important thing was that she was acting crazy.

He cursed Bei Zuoxi and Vida.

"Don't let Zuoxi have a taste of my Dark Fang Bullet."

Demonic energy began to gather in the direction of Bourne.

At first, Bowen thought it was just a joke, until she really found out that he was drunk.

"Don't dare to run, Zuoxi. Touch of Darkness, catch him!"

"grass!"

The moment Bourne dodged, the tentacles smashed the table he was sitting on into pieces.

Bourne took a deep breath and thought to himself that he was not wearing any armor now, and this tentacle seemed to want to grab him. Was he sure it didn't want to kill him?

……

"Damn it, are those people good-for-nothings? It only took them such a short time to attack here. How long will it take for the eastern cities to send out troops? As long as we can outflank them from the front and back, we still have a chance."

Sitting on the throne in the main hall, Bei Zuoxi was holding letters reporting from various areas of the room.

The golden cup in the other hand was slightly deformed, and a lot of the wine inside spilled out.

The increasing number of deserters from above has already reached his limit, and he has not yet lost his image and started to curse.

"Sorry... I'm sorry, Lord Mayor. We have already ordered the eastern cities to send troops, but it looks like they are not planning to send troops and are planning to surrender to the Demon King..."

Before the ministers below could finish their reports, a wine glass that was squeezed into a golden ball hit him hard on the head. The powerful impact caused blood to flow down his forehead.

"Who are you calling the city lord? I am the Demon King, the Demon King! The one who will lead the demons to prosperity in the future, the one who will be famous through the ages. You actually called an outsider the Demon King. Are you planning a rebellion, or do you not recognize the legitimacy of me as the king?"

Bie Zuoxi stood up from the throne almost frantically, shaking his bloated body.

He wanted to strangle the minister with his bare hands.

"I'm sorry, Lord Demon King Bei Zuoxi, it was just a slip of the tongue, a slip of the tongue!"

The minister knelt down in fear, and the blood on his head and the tears of fear mixed together and hit the floor with a bang, as if he could be spared if he could only make a hole in the floor.

After the minister rested his forehead on the ground for a while, he stopped moving and secretly squinted forward.

I saw Bie Zuoxi slumped in the chair. Compared with before, the crown on his head looked particularly ridiculous compared with his bloated body, and his face looked exhausted.

"Forget it. I'm tired."

"Thank you for the gift, Demon King."

Just when the minister thought he had been spared, thinking that his daily work might have been seen by him, he spared his life.

"Guards, drag him down and chop him up."

what……

By the time the minister came to his senses, he had already been dragged out by the arm.

As the door closed, the only sound that could be heard was the minister's miserable plea for mercy.

"It seems like everything is going wrong, Devil King Zuoxi."

A human man walked out from the shadows in the hall. From his attire, it could be seen that he was a clergyman.

"Excuse me, sir. Everything was going well, but because of the traitor Bourne and the fact that Moran was not dead, we were counterattacked."

Bie Zuoxi saw that the man in front of him put on a flattering look, and he didn't know who this man was.

All we know is that the other party's strength is unfathomable and they can fight against the Demon King, but they summoned the heroes just to hide their incompetence and they don't want the world to know that the church has such a strong strength.

This is all that Bie Zuoxi knows.

"My Lord, they are about to attack us. Can you take me away? I will do anything as long as I am alive, even if it means setting up a government in exile and becoming their enemy again."

"I'm sorry, Demon King Bei Zuoxi. You know that demons cannot appear on the land of the God of Light, but I still have a way to help you."

As he said that, he gave Bie Zuoxi a pill and a talisman.

"My lord, what is this?"

"This can temporarily increase your strength to that of a demon, and during the period of improvement you can also avoid the suppression of the world. This is your chance to become a demon king. As for this spell, it is a teleportation spell. Although you cannot go to the church, there is still a hiding place prepared for you."

"Thank you, my lord. May the goddess of light be with you."

Zuo Xi took it carefully and placed it close to his body.

"Oh, and I'll bring you another killer trick."

A teleportation array flashed past the throne and a man and a woman appeared.

"What? It's him!"

Make good use of it and I'll leave first.

After the man left, she was furious.

"It's disgusting that a demon dares to mention the name of the goddess, but the words are still quite pleasant to the ear, hahaha."
