Chapter 84: Chapter 84: Sky City, Demon King's Tower
What he was looking forward to even more was moving the entire Demon race to his 'Home'.
The "sealing crisis" of the elves had been resolved, but it also sounded an alarm for Reji.
Leaving the main force of the Demon race in the Chaos Rift all the time was not a solution. If there were any other behind-the-scenes forces that wanted to target the Demons, it would be too passive.
Moreover, the barren Chaos Rift was completely an obstacle to the development of the Demon race.
Reji urgently needed to find another place that was safer, more reliable, and more fertile to accommodate the main force of the Demon race.
Originally, Reji's plan was to control the Kingdom of Ilinor and use this human kingdom as a shield on the surface. Then, he would divide the area for the Demon race.
However, now...
The appearance of the Home system gave him another and better solution.
"My King, in theory, the transfer is not difficult to achieve. What I am more concerned about is that this space may not be large enough to accommodate our race."
The Sorcerer demon carefully studied this anomalous space.
Since being transferred here, Dian's mood had significantly improved, and even the tone of his voice was slightly higher than usual, filled with a strong desire to explore and curiosity.
That was the Sorcerer demon.
A very pure scholar.
Therefore, Reji did not mind sharing some of the authority of the Home system with Dian. To achieve the transfer of the Demon race, the knowledge and ability of the Sorcerer demon were indispensable.
Hearing Dian's affirmation of his idea, Reji nodded inwardly.
'As expected, it was just as I thought'
In the game, the Home system could only accommodate "Companions."
So even in the late game, there were at most 42 characters in Reji's highest-level Home space.
But now, whether it was the four Demon Apostles or the more than 200 elves, from the panel, they were not his Companions and far exceeded the number that the Home space should be able to bear.
Therefore, Reji speculated that this might be the difference between the game and reality and was not constrained by the "Companion" framework.
Now Dian had clearly stated that transferring the Demon race here was not a problem.
The only concern was that there was not enough space here.
But for Reji, this was not that big of a problem.
Dian was still in the exploratory stage of understanding 'Home', and his knowledge was limited. However, Reji was very clear that as the level of 'Home' increased, the space here would expand geometrically.
Even if it reached the maximum level, in the game, one could use a fixed 100 starlight points to exchange for an increase in the "land block" limit.
The more blocks, the greater the capacity of the Home.
However, this function was very useless in the game because it would not increase the resource output of the Home, but only expand the area.
Reji certainly would not use precious starlight points to do this. He was not interested in things like Home cultivation or setting up various beautiful buildings and villas.
But now it was different.
If the 'Home' space could really accommodate the Demon race, even if it was only a small part, such as the eight Apostles and their core clans, that would absolutely solve one of Reji's worries and give the Demon race peace of mind.
Moreover, in terms of his private thoughts, he had absolute control over the Home, and the characters placed in the Home would also subtly increase their affection for him.
Once this was successfully achieved, he would no longer have to worry about the control and loyalty of the Demon race army in the future.
"I will figure out the space expansion, and the rest of the transfer work...Dian, I'm entrusting this task to you. Also, I want to change the appearance of this space."
"Do you mean to transform the shape of that scroll?"
"Yes, the space compression technique here is indeed powerful, but as we expand its interior, the scroll's shape will definitely not be able to contain it. Moreover, for our people, it is a loss of face. So I want to change the shape of the space into a...warship."
"Warship?" Dian was obviously a bit unfamiliar with this term.
Reji explained, "You can understand it as a fortress that can fly in the sky."
Dian nodded.
"I understand ,My King. You want to rebuild a magical tower that floats high in the sky based on the space expansion and compression techniques of this scroll, right?"
"You can out it that way."
Compared to building the base on the ground or underground, Reji preferred to build something like a sky city. It felt more domineering and impressive.
Later, he could spiral-build the Demon King's Tower in layers, letting each Apostle and their clan guard a layer. How to put it? Yes, just like a high-difficulty dungeon.
Those who wanted to come and attack this "Demon King" would have to go through a lot of hardships, first ascending to the sky city, and then climbing the tower layer by layer, passing through the guardian Apostle bosses on each layer, and finally reaching the Demon King's room at the top of the tower.
Reji felt more and more like a villain after thinking of this.
After explaining this rough construction plan, Dian immediately nodded and promised to do his best.
"Leave it to me, My King. I will do my utmost."
"I am also very grateful to My King for giving me this opportunity. This legacy left by the Son of Destiny has a great attraction to me."
"So..."
After a pause, the Sorcerer demon sincerely said, "I beg My King to allow me to continue researching this place after the task is completed."
"No problem, this is your due reward."
Even if Dian didn't take the initiative to ask, Reji would still have many questions about the Home in the future and would need Dian's help. Therefore, he directly agreed.
After instructing Dian, Reji turned his head to the Succubus.
"Eileen, as you can see, everything here is almost empty."
"I have also given you the authority to use this place. I hope that you can assist Dian in building the Demon King's Tower. I hope this place can become the most solid and reliable rear area for our kin."
Eileen immediately bowed and said, "I cannot refuse your majesty."
"Thank you, Eileen."
Reji was not as formal with Eileen as he was with Dian. He even held Eileen's hand to comfort her.
"By the way, regarding the matters of the elven race and the plan for the Demon King's Tower, you can summarize them and send a copy to Leo later. Don't disturb him too much. Let Leo know that everything is going well on our side so that he doesn't have to worry."
Reji did not call upon the Wisdom Demon this time. On the one hand, he thought that with four Apostles and himself, the immunity to the natural magic Demon King, they basically had the upper hand. On the other hand, as he had emphasized, Reji did not want to disturb the Wisdom Demon.
After all, Leo's task was also very important. Even with the unexpected surprise of the Home space, Reji still had to have his way with the Ilinor Kingdom, and this was his next action goal.
After arranging everything here, Reji left with Shermen and quickly returned to the Royal City.
The Demon King had left.
The Sorcerer apostle, who was about to go to work, saw the Succubus Apostle still standing there with her head down after Reji left. He couldn't help but shake his head.
Dian could more or less understand the reason for Eileen's discouraged expression.
"Eileen, you must understand that his majesty is currently busy working for the revival of our race and is not deliberately ignoring you," Dian said.
Of course, Eileen knew what Dian was saying.
That was precisely why she had acted obediently in front of Reji just now, not showing any abnormality and not causing trouble for her king.
But in fact...
After Reji left, Eileen sighed deeply, and her beautiful face was full of irritation.
The reason was just as the Sorcerer demon had said.
"She..."
She had spent too little time with him!
She thought that after being allowed by the demon King to descend and leave the Chaos Rift, she could finally stick to his side.
She could finally kick that old woman Shermen away from the demon King's side and become the one to protect him.
But In the end, it was still Shermen who stayed with him, while she remained in the rear, and she might not see her king even once a day.
How could Eileen not feel lost and discouraged?
But thinking about it carefully, what could she do?
Among the Demon Apostles, only Leo, who possessed leadership abilities, had been sent away, leaving only her to manage the rear for the demon King.
Otherwise, who could they rely on?
Eris?
At the thought of this, Eileen glanced at Eris, who was stupidly spewing mud not far away, trying to build a "Corruption Pool" in this new space.
