Chapter 1509: Decapitation Operation
Hearing these words, the Demon God nodded, indicating agreement with this subordinate's opinion, and said: "Hmm, continue."
That subordinate continued speaking: "The second method, I feel, is extremely dangerous, and the success rate is very low, but if it truly succeeds, it will surely provide an extremely huge help to the battlefield situation, even capable of reversing the current stalemate, causing the morale of Dark City to plummet greatly, thereby leading to Dark City's defeat and retreat."
Hearing these words, the Demon God could not help but slightly narrow his eyes, a strange light flashing within his pupils; he spoke: "Then you had better quickly tell me, what is the second method?" "Decapitation Operation!"
Hearing these words, the Demon God could not help but widen his eyes, wearing an expression of disbelief. He gaped his mouth, looking at this demon subordinate.
"W-what... what's wrong, Demon God my lord?" That demon subordinate, feeling extremely uncomfortable under the Demon God's stare, could not help but ask.
Hearing these words, the Demon God quickly came to his senses; he took a deep breath, forcibly suppressed the surprise in his heart, and then spoke: "Excellent, I think the method you mentioned is indeed excellent. Such a simple problem, how did I not think of it?"
Hearing the Demon God's words of praise, that subordinate immediately humbled himself, then spoke: "This is also due to the Demon God my lord's excellent teaching; this subordinate merely spoke casually. However, Demon God my lord, the opponent is not one to be trifled with; although this Decapitation Operation sounds simple, in actual practice there are numerous difficulties."
"First, infiltrating without being discovered is a problem; second, selecting a suitable person to execute this task is also a difficult matter. One must possess the ability to kill the opponent; just that Lord Chenxi of theirs, basically, aside from Demon God my lord being able to suppress him, others..."
Speaking to this point, he did not continue further, after all, what was said was too blunt; he did not wish to anger Demon God my lord.
Hearing his words, the Demon God nodded; after all, Li Yue was indeed a considerable trouble. He thought for a moment and spoke: "This Decapitation Operation, I shall handle it personally." As soon as these words were spoken, the people around immediately froze, obviously feeling somewhat surprised.
They did not expect that Demon God my lord would personally take the field! They found it hard to believe what their ears had heard; they suspected their ears might be experiencing hallucinations, which is why they heard such words.
"Demon God my lord, this..." One General could not help but speak up to remind.
"This matter must absolutely not happen; you are our supreme ruler. This Decapitation Operation is inherently fraught with peril; if, if, you were to suffer any misfortune, then we people, would we not become eternal sinners?"
"Yes, Demon God my lord, such a risk, you should leave it to us subordinates to undertake!"
Hearing the advice of the various Generals, the Demon God's face darkened; he looked coldly at everyone and asked: "Are you questioning my ability?"
Hearing these words, those demon Generals all shook their heads one after another; they all knew clearly that their own Demon God my lord possessed terrifyingly immense power, and throughout the entire continent, no one could compare with him.
"This subordinate is not questioning your strength; this subordinate is merely concerned for Demon God my lord's safety," one General quickly explained.
Hearing his words, the Demon God snorted coldly and said: "What great storms and waves has Demon God my lord not experienced? What dangers has he not encountered? You need not worry about me."
"But, Demon God my lord, that group of fellows in Dark City are despicable and shameless, resorting to any means; this subordinate is worried that Demon God my lord will suffer a sneak attack from Dark City; at that time, would it not be that Demon God my lord faces many dangers and little hope?" That General spoke.
Another demon General immediately chimed in: "Yes, Demon God my lord, you should not be so impulsive; we have already been deceived several times. Originally, the army's morale was already chaotic; if Demon God my lord were to suffer any misfortune, then what should be done? We subordinates do not possess such bold capability to restrain the numerous soldiers; I fear that at that time, countless soldiers will disintegrate and scatter!"
These demon Generals were all Generals loyal to the Demon God; they did not wish for the Demon God to meet with misfortune, nor did they wish for the Demon God to be schemed against by that group of lords from Dark City.
The Demon God also knew these Generals were related to the overall situation; he did not blame them, but instead spoke: "But if I do not go, then who will deal with that scoundrel Li Yue? Such a Decapitation Operation would simply not achieve any effect at all!"
Hearing these words, those demon Generals immediately fell silent; they did not know what to say, after all, they were also unwilling to see the Demon God meet with misfortune. But if the Demon God did not go, then Li Yue would not die either; at that time, they would truly be at a loss.
Just as everyone was pondering back and forth, at this moment, in a corner, a demon General who had not spoken a word for a long time slowly raised his head, then spoke: "Demon God my lord, regarding this matter, please allow this subordinate to go personally; this subordinate is willing to take the risk."
"Oh?" Hearing these words, the Demon God was first stunned, then he looked at the person who had spoken.
He saw that he was of short stature, and due to some reason, the entire body's skin color had turned a pale green.
"You can kill Li Yue!?" The Demon God looked at that short man with some suspicion and asked.
That short man shook his head and said: "This subordinate has no certainty of being able to kill Li Yue, but there is a way to restrict his movements, creating an opportunity for others to assassinate him."
"Oh? How so?" Hearing these words, the Demon God immediately asked.
The short man spoke: "Demon God my lord, I am a master of poison and am skilled in using poison; I can scatter deadly poison in the air. The toxicity of this poison is extremely fierce; even ordinary powerful ones, upon smelling this poison, will require some time to recover their strength. When Li Yue is poisoned, that will be the best opportunity for our assassination."
Hearing these words, the Demon God not only furrowed his brows, but then spoke: "Hmm? Then what is your certainty?"
"I dare not say one hundred percent, but fifty percent certainty I do have," the short man spoke.
Hearing these words, the Demon God fell into deep thought.
And the other demon Generals also, at this moment, silently closed their mouths; immediately, the scene became quiet to a terrifying degree, as if one could even hear each other's breathing sounds.
After a long while, the Demon God sighed and then spoke: "So be it; since this is the case, then you shall undertake this matter."
