The Lord Demon King is Unfathomable!

Chapter 1701 478: Campbell People Learning by Doing_2

The six compound eyes all lit up simultaneously, and couldn't help but swallow a big gulp of saliva.

Due to that action being so "shrinking," Taufu let out a sharp "eeee——" scream, darting under Luo Yan's chair, hiding behind the legs of his pants.

Looking at these two useless pets, Luo Yan shook his head gently, sighed leisurely, and then instructed Alakdo.

"Let him wait for me in the Audience Hall."

"As you command, my supreme master!"

Alakdo respectfully took the order, but as he was leaving, he didn't forget to give a jealous look at the little lizard who was "intimately attached" to Lord Demon King.

This guy...

Hasn't even reached Lord Demon King's calf height, yet already eyeing my mount's position, truly revealing his wolfish ambitions!

Thinking about it, Alakdo couldn't help but make himself hungry, disappearing from the study with drool all over the place under Taufu's terrified gaze...

...

Little demons dressed in maid outfits flew into the Demon King's study, carrying mops and iron buckets.

Seeing the mysterious liquid all over the ground, the demons were all shocked and started gossiping about which bad guy had cheated their Queen Qianqian.

Meanwhile, in the Audience Hall on the first floor of the Maze, Luo Yan, leaning on the throne, was quietly gazing at the bottom of the stairs.

At the bottom of those stairs, the tall and silent Lizardman Corpse Ghost Octo was kneeling on one knee, a head placed casually beside him.

The eyes of that head were still wide open, frozen in shock and unwillingness at the last moment before death. This man's name was Kun Jia, said to be the leader of the Gray Fin Tribe. Luo Yan thought for a moment before recalling the name.

Even though it was a matter from two years ago, he felt it had been a long time since then.

His gaze lingered on that "unruly" face, and as he leaned on the throne, Luo Yan's mind couldn't help but drift back to when he first arrived here.

At that time, newly arrived and with an unstable foundation, he faced the external threat of Aaron Campbell, who wanted to slash the Demon King, and the internal strife of the Four Demon Generals each reigning over their territories underground.

As the "master" of the first floor of the Maze, the leader of the Earth Dragon Clan once attempted to collude with the Merfolk from the Southwest Swamp to seize power from him, causing quite some trouble.

Eventually, that defiant Earth Dragon Clan was completely subdued by him, turning into the now obedient "Guardian Clan."

As for those Merfolk entrenched in the Southwest Swamp, they seemed to have gotten involved in internal disputes among the Lizardmen, rolling about in the mud, as it were. Since that land was not within the core interest area of the Great Graveyard, Luo Yan hadn't had the time to deal with them.

Now, needing to use that place as a bridgehead for the Great Graveyard, he remembered those past events.

He specially sent Octo over to prevent any old grudges from interfering.

Unexpectedly, the opponent was so blind and jumped out on their own, conveniently dealt with by Octo, saving him quite the hassle.

It's worth mentioning that it was these guys who initially gave the Earth Dragon Clan the courage that ultimately harmed them. Now that Octo has cut off their leader, it seems to align with the notion of karmic justice.

"...That's how the matter went. Additionally, the chieftain of the Stone Lizard Clan, Tartak, has agreed to the conditions proposed by Sak Jifeng, and will unconditionally cooperate with the Gutaf United Kingdom's 'poverty alleviation' plan," Octo reported solemnly on the matter, then closed his mouth, speaking no more.

"Very well."

Luo Yan nodded, quite satisfied with the outcome.

After a brief pause, he slowly spoke, continuing with instructions.

"The Southwest Swamp is our bridgehead for infiltrating the Human World, but for now, it's not suitable for open activities. Since your Guardian Clan is also Lizardman, let your brother Zerick, along with the acolytes of the Guardian Clan, go over there."

That land is desolate, but faith cannot be desolate. The glory of the Demon King should shine on every corner.

If the Gutaf United Kingdom plays the role of the sun, then the acolytes of the Great Graveyard play the role of the moon; both hands must be his own people.

"As you command." Octo immediately took the order.

He didn't understand the purpose of Lord Demon King's actions, but as long as it was Lord Demon King's command, he would execute it without any discount.

After finishing the business, Luo Yan glanced at the unsightly head on the ground, casually saying, "As for this, throw it into the Weaving Shadow Nest."

"As you command, Lord Demon King!" Without waiting for Octo to speak, Alakdo eagerly jumped in to answer, then dashed off with the head.

Just as Octo was about to leave, he remembered something, asking one last question before leaving.

"My lord, how should we deal with the remaining Merfolk of the River Bay Tribe Alliance?"

Luo Yan lightly tapped his forefinger on the armrest of the throne, pondered for a moment, and said.

"If they behave, then give them a new name... from now on, let's call them the Fishman Clan."

This name was one he came up with in three seconds, and whether those Merfolk liked it or not was not his concern.

After all, no one invited them here anyway.

He wasn't a Demon King fond of mass slaughter, but when dealing with uncooperative individuals, he had never hesitated.

Octo expressionlessly followed up, "And those who don't behave?"

"I had Zerick bring the acolytes over specifically to handle this matter," Luo Yan said lightly, "How to deal with it, he can decide on his own; there's no need to report every detail to me."
