Those demons were surprisingly good - looking. The elder ones were tall with long legs, typical European - American handsome guys. But at the sight of them, not only the boys but also the girls burst into tears again. “De... demons. What should we do? Are we going to be eaten?”
“Run, everyone!”
“I can't. My legs are too weak to stand up!”
The four demons sized up Xia Lin and the others as if they were looking at pets. Then, seemingly satisfied, one of them said, “The quality of these people this time is quite good. The boys are more handsome than the last batch, and the girls are more beautiful. It seems that Mammon's outburst last time scared them, and those lowly humans don't dare to pass off inferior ones as good ones anymore.”
The one who spoke first was a man wearing glasses, looking gentle and refined. At first glance, he seemed to be a gentle - tempered demon who was easy to talk to. But a closer look at his eyes would reveal that he, like the other three demons, despised Xia Lin and the others. One shouldn't underestimate these demons just because of their appearance. Except for the “goat horns”, they looked exactly like humans, but there was a fundamental difference. They were like hunters and prey. Demons captured humans, either to devour their souls or to take fancy to their bodies as pets in bed.
Among humans, paladins and magicians had killed quite a few demons, but there had never been a large - scale war between them. It was just minor skirmishes. One reason was that although humans were in the majority, they were not united. Moreover, for the balance of various forces, elves, demons, and orcs would not allow the two sides to go to war. So, not only between demons and humans, but also among other races, all parties had been in a state of confrontation, and no one could do much to the others for the time being!
Seeing that the humans were still crying and making a ruckus, a handsome blond - haired demon couldn't stand it anymore. “Shut up, all of you, or I'll eat you right now!”
The humans were so frightened that they covered their mouths. They sobbed uncontrollably and couldn't stop crying immediately. The blond - haired demon complained unhappily, “Ugh, why do I have to transport the offerings? Mammon is just lazing around in his own palace!”
“Don't complain, Samael. If we can get the master to choose one as a pet, I'll help you get a few chests of gold coins from Mammon!”
Hearing this, Samael's expression brightened. He didn't care much about gold coins, but Mammon was crazy about them. If he could get a few chests of gold coins from Mammon, that guy would probably be heart - broken!
“It's a deal, Amon. Don't go back on your word!”
The glasses - wearing demon, who had already knocked out two people and used a cloud of black mist to levitate a pair of girls in mid - air, impatiently turned around and said, “You two, get to work quickly!”
The blond - haired demon scratched his head. “Tsk, the two prettiest girls have been taken away by him. Oh well, I'll pick two of the best - looking boys.”
As a result, Xia Lin and another chestnut - haired boy were also knocked out. Before losing consciousness, Xia Lin thought that demons were not particular about gender. It made sense since they didn't even care about race, let alone gender.
When Xia Lin woke up again, he found himself in a cage being carried by two low - level demons. He was at the end, and there were seven cages in front of him. The other seven teenagers and girls were still unconscious. He woke up so early because there was magical energy in his body. Although he hadn't graduated from the academy yet, he was already a half - magician.
Even though Xia Lin was awake, he couldn't escape from the cage because he found that in this special cage, his magical energy was suppressed to the lowest level.
