"Alright, three days then. I will have my offspring incite panic throughout Akman Town, but you must deal with that priest in the church yourself," Sonia pondered for a mont, confirming the cooperation, but also setting new conditions.
"Fine, I will let my offspring spread fear in Akman Town," Lawrence agreed reluctantly. "Heh, why do you want to do such pointless things? Just unsealing the entrance to Hell ans their doom. What if killing them now alarms the Church Court?" Lawrence found an excuse and rejected the idea without a change in expression, knowing that Qin Muye had Tian Qi by his side. If he really went ahead with the killing, it wouldn't be him who would erge victorious but rather he would be the one killed.
"It's possible, but before that, you need to have your offspring spread enough fear. Only then will the seals weaken, and afterward, I will use witchcraft to break the seal at Hell's entrance," Lawrence didn't hide his demands and stated them outright.
"Lawrence? I hadn't anticipated you, too, would side with Hell." From the chest of the Alien Queen, an aged face erged, and it was none other than the Hell Witch, Sonia.
"Without , you can't break the seal on Hell's entrance," Lawrence said, exuding an aura of Hell's power and revealing his advantage.
"Sonia, I believe this is the first ti we et in the twenty-seven years I've served in Akman Town," Lawrence said with a sinister tone, staring at the massive form of the Alien Queen before him.
"Let's cooperate. I need the Book of Death from Hell, and all the Evil Spirits will belong to you!" Lawrence briskly presented his conditions.
"Why should I cooperate with you? If my offspring can kill that priest and his red-robed followers, both the Evil Spirits and the Book of Death will be mine," Sonia's tone was greedy, but Lawrence knew there was room to negotiate.
"I need to transcribe all the knowledge from the Book of Death," Sonia paused for a mont, admitting her inability to open Hell's seal-a seal forged jointly by the Hell Church and the Church Court.
"Causing widespread panic, three days will be sufficient," Lawrence didn't know Sonia's thoughts, but even if he did, he would only scoff.
"How long will it take, or to what extent must it be done?"
Originally, he had found a scapegoat, the newly arrived Priest Andrew, but various unforeseen events led to the current situation, so he had to turn to Sonia.
Having shed her frail body and deeply integrated with Hell Power, combined with the Alien Queen absorbing her body's genetic traits, Sonia had acquired far greater mastery over witchcraft and Hell Power than she had in life.
The ovipositor wasn't sothing she could rid herself of imdiately-it would take so ti, a duration likely sufficient for Lawrence to kill her.
An influence that spanned thousands of years stretched its tentacles into various industries, and the hidden power beneath the surface was not sothing Sonia, hiding in the countryside, could fathom.
Based solely on the intelligence Lawrence had collected over the years, he knew the Hell Church harbored many ascetics possessing Hell Power, possibly even ancient monsters that had survived for thousands of years.
She rembered the red-robed followers entering the Hell where the Book of Death was kept, and then Hell was sealed.
Of course, he was fearful now, for his goals were not yet achieved, and Lawrence naturally wouldn't show any arrogance or haughtiness. Only when he truly ruled the world would it be his ti to take pride.
Then, even an enormous entity like the Church Court, with the power of the Book of Death, wouldn't frighten him.
Then, he would directly assault the Hell Church and the Church Court to obtain the thod of unsealing.
Once her Alien offspring were plentiful, why worry about failing to break the seal?
Otherwise, how could he suppress the Hell Church?
Let alone the even more ancient Church Court.
Fortunately, he had planned this for decades and naturally had an escape plan ready.
Even though he was no longer human, his body was far stronger than before.
Flas continuously appeared on Lawrence's body, transforming into a giant demon with bat wings flapping gently behind him, as he stared directly at Sonia.
Lawrence was an ambitious man, and siding with Hell? That was just temporary, what he truly desired was the Book of Death.
Indeed, otherwise why would he collaborate with Sonia?
If it were for the sake of the Book of Death and the evil spirits in Hell, spending three to five days could be acceptable, but if it were longer, she'd rather leave Akman Town, since besides these horrifying monsters, other lives could also serve as hosts.
If Sonia truly weren't willing to talk, she would have taken action by now, not spoken these words.
Nowadays, Sonia was like a queen ant, dragging an ovipositor much larger than her own body, making her movents particularly inconvenient, unless she could detach from the ovipositor, perhaps then she could have a chance to fight, but ti did not permit.
They even ca to make Sonia act as a shield and scapegoat.
Although Sonia had beco an Alien Queen, she was still a witch, transford from a Hell Witch into an Alien Witch, otherwise how could she enhance the Alien species and consciously hunt those murderers and horrifying monsters?
So Lawrence was able to open the seal to the gateway of Hell, which allowed Sonia to save a lot of witchcraft materials.
So to call it cooperation was rather to say mutual coercion, Lawrence had the ability to kill Sonia, and Sonia had offspring that could potentially lead to Lawrence's death.
Sonia probably only thought that these red-robed priests and Hell Preachers were all the Church Court and Hell Church had to offer, but in Lawrence's eyes, the two groups of ascetics were probably just peripheral staff.
Sonia indeed could summon evil spirits through witchcraft, but such summoning ca at too great a cost; wishing to summon all the evil spirits in Hell would require witchcraft materials and souls far beyond her capacity to bear.
Sonia did not inquire about how to break the seal, she knew, even if she asked, Lawrence would not tell her, and where the thods to break the seal ca from could also involve Lawrence's personal secrets.
Sonia naturally could not endlessly arrange her offspring to spread Fear, which was an unbearable act for her.
He had never seen red-robed priests and Hell Preachers, but he had heard of these ascetics' combat prowess, and the two powers were not limited to just these kinds of ascetics.
Feeling proud now would be no different from courting death; in terms of mindset, Lawrence still had a good grasp of the situation, having waited for decades, he wasn't bothered by a
little more ti.
Compared to other terrifying beings in Hell, the Book of Death was the most harmless Lord of Hell, being just a book, even if it possessed sentience, it was still just a book.
One must know that behind the Hell Church was King of Hell Leviathan, and the Church Court was even more mysterious; to this day, no one had uncovered exactly which King of Hell the Church Court had collaborated with, so even speculated that it might be more than one. Once Akman Town fell and the gateway to Hell was unsealed, it would definitely alarm the Hell Church and the Church Court, a few dead people didn't concern them, what they cared about was the gateway to Hell.
A re Book of Death in Hell could dispatch a hundred red-robed priests, illustrating their
vast resources.
It was true the Alien burst forth from Sonia's body, but that did not an she would die from this; instead, through witchcraft and a pact with the Alien Queen, Sonia gradually took control and dominated the entire Hell Alien group.
Therefore, even with his current strength, he dared not act openly, but stealthily like a rat in a
gutter.
Having embraced his demonic form in Hell, Lawrence's power surged, coupled with his extrely odd ability to move, Sonia wasn't confident she could kill him.
It so happened that Sonia had a strange encounter, transforming into an insect-type demon, and coupled with the activities she engaged in, as long as the aftermath was handled well, Lawrence need not worry about being cleansed afterward, as long as he obtained the Book of Death, letting Sonia attract attention and firepower to make his escape plan even smoother. Once he mastered all content of the Book of Death, it would be his ti to rule the world. Once all the evil spirits in Hell were cleared out, then nothing would be a significant issue.
As for being cleansed later? That would co later, how could such matters not carry risks, especially since he had taken the Book of Death, the Church Court and Death Church naturally wouldn't let him off easily.
As the Alien Queen, Sonia's real reliance was no longer on witchcraft and curses, but on her vast number of Alien offspring.
