Global Demon King: Starting as the Abyssal Dragon

She was no longer overly against the young city lord\'s defection to the Demon King. But that did not mean she had accepted this fact yet.

Hmmph!

Marilyn wanted to have a look herself.

What kind of charm was this Demon King bearing?

To actually have the elves of the Giantree City to put aside their dignities and submit to him.

As soon as she approached Giantree City, a soothing and comfortable warmth enveloped her as if she was bathing in the hotsprings of Silver Spring City, her whole body relaxed and her mood elevated.

What\'s going on?

What\'s this miraculous and divine energy?

She followed the sensation to its source and exclaimed in awe, "Is this the legendary Tree of Life? But isn\'t its cultivation method long lost? How can your Giantree tribe master such a technique?!"

The Tree of Life was enormous in size, with distinctive features.

It was easily visible to all the residents of Giantree City whenever they raised their sight.

The Tree of Life had significant effects on living beings, especially elves, as it could greatly increase their lifespans and training speed.

"This is the ultimate treasure of the elven race."

"After the fall of the ancient Elven Empire."

"The Tree of Life had vanished for tens of thousands of years."

"I never thought I would see the mythical creation here."

The elven chieftain was incredibly thrilled.

But Nancilia uttered, "We do not possess such great capabilities. This is a gift from His Majesty, the Demon King, to the elves."

"What? You must be joking! How can a Demon King have the Tree of Life?"

Marilyn found it hard to believe and frankly ridiculous, "Besides, judging from the magnitude of this Tree of Life, it would take at least a hundred years to cultivate it to its current size. It\'s damned impossible that it could have appeared within the last month!"

The third elder of the Giantree interjected, "The city lord speaks the truth. You may ask any citizen of our city and they would attest that there was no Tree of Life in our city a month ago."

While Marilyn was reluctant to believe it.

Her intuition told her that it might be true.

The elves of Giantree City had no reason to fabricate such an easily-disproved lie.

Furthermore, if Giantree City had always possessed such a valuable elf treasure as the Tree of Life, it should have been widely known, and visitors would have flocked to the city. However, the Silver Spring Tribe had never heard of this matter.

Which suggested.

This ancient tree might have verily only appeared recently.

Marilyn muttered to herself, "Could it be that the Demon King has received the favor of the Goddess of Nature? This Tree of Life is too much of a divine miracle!"

Nancili chuckled, "To be honest, we all think that the Demon King might really have some kind of relationship with the Goddess of Nature."

Marilyn was flummoxed and stared out in disbelief.

This statement was too sacrilegious.

Nancilia continued, "Take a closer look at the residents of our Giantree City and how they differ from those of other places."

Suddenly, Marilyn exclaimed, "Why does every resident here have the power of the Nature Goddess in their beings?"

"Hehe, you finally noticed?"

The young city lord said proudly, "Giantree City has been blessed by the Goddess of Nature!"

"And not just Giantree City either, but also those orcs in the Berserk Beast City. After they pledged allegiance to His Majesty the Demon King, they also received the blessing of the Goddess of Nature."

Marilyn\'s worldviews were slightly shattered.

It was difficult to believe that the filthy and warlike orcs could also be blessed by the Goddess of Nature. It was simply outrageous!

The young city lord took the elven chieftain for a stroll around the city, showing her that Giantree City was not forced to submit to the Demon King\'s threat, but that every citizen here truly respected him!

Afterall.

Since following the Demon King.

The environment of the Giantree City has been completely transformed.

Under the blessings of the Tree of Life and the Goddess of Nature.

Every elf resident in Giantree City is far superior to their previous selves, both in spirit and physical condition.

"Greetings, city lord!"

"Greetings, city lord."

When the elves saw Nancilia.

They all greeted her in a friendly manner.

Marilyn noticed that hundreds or even thousands of elves were lining up in a long queue, their faces full of expectation, waiting for something.

She could not help but ask curiously, "What are they doing?"

Before Nancilia had the time to explain.

A little elven girl who looked about eight years old called out, "Big sis, we are registering to become pharmacy apprentices. I want to be the Demon King\'s pharmacist in the future!!"

Marilyn was shocked.

Such a young elf.

She was willing to work under the Demon King?

Nancilia explained, "The Demon King has established an elven pharmacy workshop in Giantree City, and has now hired over a thousand excellent elven pharmacists."

Miley Milen was skeptical, "So many?"

Nancilia said, "The Demon King supplies the sufficient raw materials, and the elves were only required to concoct the potions. This job allows the elves to receive generous rewards."

Of course.

The fact that the elves could receive such generous returns.

It indicated that the Demon King\'s profits were even more substantial.

Marilyn was deeply puzzled, "Even with so many alchemy materials, but with thousands of elven alchemists producing tens of thousands of bottles of potion every day, how could so many potions be sold?"

The market in Giantree City was way too small to digest all these products.

If they were to depend only on the forest merchants.

Let alone tens of thousands bottles of potions per day.

Not even a few hundreds could be sold in a single day.

Nancilia scratched her head and replied, "I\'m not too sure about this. The Demon King only took a portion of it, and the other potions are stored in the Giantree City warehouse. Now we have a stock of several hundred thousand bottles of potions."

It turned out.

When the elven workshop produced potions.

Zhang Nu only took a portion for personal use and to sell it on the Demon King\'s market.

He was storing the rest of it to be sold to the Azure Water Federation in the future.

Although these were just common potions.

But they were all elf-made.

Each and every single bottle of it was of exceedingly high quality.

The young city lord concluded, "Anyway, the elves now have this high-paying job, and they can easily support themselves without having to venture out every day. We now have a lot of spare time and wealth to pursue music and art that we elves are fond of."

As they passed by the potion workshop.

Long lines of elves waiting in the queue could be seen.

There were tens of thousands of elves in the Giantree City with the talent for alchemy.

The Demon King accepted all who came.

As long as the workshop could still accommodate them.

All of them were welcome to help.

These elves started as apprentices and worked their way up until they had learned enough and became proficient in their concocting skills, at which point they could start working.

Witnessing these elves brimming with fulfillment and hope.

Marilyn\'s heart was moved...She wondered if the elves in Silver Spring Valley would envy such a life!

She had not expected that the Demon King\'s influence on the elves\' life would be so significant.

The young city lord continued, "In addition to potioneer, we also have many of our people who have become the Demon King\'s blacksmiths, alchemists, and botanists."

As they spoke.

The two of them toured around the Tree of Life.

Surrounding the enormous tree.

There were about seven or eight miles of land that had been tilted.

The young city lord introduced, "This is Giantree City\'s elven farm."

Nurtured by the potent life energy of the Tree of Life.

The land within a dozen or so miles was endowed with the characteristics of Spirit Fields.

Although its soil was not as good as the upgraded Level 3 Spirit Fields in the Darkness City, the area was immensely huge, much larger than the combined area of eight or ten Spirit Fields.

Proudly, the young city lord claimed, "In the future, as long as this place is fully developed, with the blessing bestowed by the Tree of Life alone, it will be enough to feed millions of our people!"

Marilyn was awestruck, "So this is the power of a Tree of Life, it\'s no wonder the ancient elves valued it so highly."

Currently.

Thousands of elves were barefoot and wearing straw hats, working and playing happily under the ancient tree.

It was such a harmonious and peaceful scene.

Marilyn was once again touched by what she saw.

All those smiles were genuine, and even though she had biases against the Demon King, she could not deny that they were not being forced to work as agricultural slaves.

"Little City Lord!"

"What brings you here?"

A sweet voice came from above.

And the flower fey Chen Guoguo landed in front of the two.

Nancilia revealed a smile, "Hehe, well if it isn\'t Queen Guoguo!"

"What a strange question you\'re asking. As a city lord, it\'s normal for me to inspect the territory. But what about you? Why are you here?"

"I\'m here to promote new seeds!"

The Flower Fey Queen continued, "Most of your fields are empty. It\'s such a waste. Would you like to try my newly developed meat seeds?"

Nancilia was taken aback, "What? Meat seeds?"

The Flower Fey Queen smirked, "This is my latest magic seed creation. All you need is to plant it in the soil, and it will grow meat. Not only does it taste no different from real meat, it\'s also very nutritious."

"Such seeds exist?"

Marilyn was very intrigued by it.

Elves did not eat meat much because eating a lot of meat meant killing a lot of animals, which could easily disrupt the balance of nature.

But if meat could be grown from the soil.

Wouldn\'t it be the same as fruit for the elves?

This flower fey was really astonishing to have such capabilities in developing seeds. Could she be a great master of life magic and alchemy magic?

"This is Flower Fey Queen Chen Guoguo, she is also one of the subordinates of the Dragon Demon King, as well as one of my three sworn sisters!"

This was also a Demon King?

It was hard to tell.

Nancilia was very interested in Chen Guoguo\'s meat seeds and decided to purchase a large quantity. After all, they were all one big family and she wanted to support her new product.

Next.

The young city lord led the elven chieftain on a tour of the Giantree Forest which was brought back from the verge of death and withering.

She told the tales of the Giantree Forest, including the events from three hundred years ago as well as the corrupted tribe leader. Finally, she recounted the Demon King\'s heroic deeds in saving the Giantree Forest and risking his life to challenge the Evil God for the safety of the elven tribe.

Marilyn was dumbfounded upon listening to tales.

By the time the tour was over, it was already dark outside.

"We\'ll end the tour here for today. If you\'re interested, we can go to Berserk Beast City or even Darkness City tomorrow to have a look."

Nancilia proudly stated, "These are all territories of the Demon King. Even the once brutal and ruthless orcs, since converting to the Demon King, are now mining all day and have turned away from their prior evil lifestyle."

"As for tonight, let\'s go to Su Yan\'s bar!"

The captain of the Dragon Shadow Hero Guild, Su Yan.

She was now a Level 4 great Hero.

She liked to stay in Giantree City when she was not on a mission.

Darkness City was still too desolate, full of ferocious and scary draconians, and Berserk Beast City is even worse, being dirtier and smellier.

To live a better life in Giantree City.

Su Yan opened a bar, as well as a gambling house and a theater specifically for travelers and merchants.

Making money was secondary.

Her goal was to bring over things from her past life.

From chess and mahjong to tabletop games and dramas, her ideas were well received, greatly enriching the spiritual entertainment life of elves and merchants.

Despite being the chief of an elven tribe.

Marilyn had a peculiar hobby for gambling since childhood.

She had never seen a place as interesting as the Giantree City before.

The various sights and spectacles she witnessed during the day dispelled all her worries.

And now, the night\'s music concerts, theatrical performances, and gambling with dice, poker, and mahjong became the final straw that broke her resistance.

Although the Dragon Demon King was not at home to meet her in person, she had already made her decision.

"Okay, enough talking. I accept on behalf of the Silver Spring City!" Marilyn declared.

Nancilia was overjoyed.

She had finally convinced her.

The Demon King would definitely be pleased with this outcome.

Silver Spring City was a Level 4 overlord region, with a scale no less than that of the Giantree City, and it had a higher level as well.

Conquering such a vast force would undoubtedly offer a significant reward treasure chest!
