The straightforward Demon Madman!
Because the current Demon Civilization, as one of the oldest Sublimation Civilizations, has an extremely prominent feature: class solidification and resource concentration.
In the Demon Civilization, which has been through Ascension for tens of thousands of years, the entire civilized society has long since rotted.
The strong, their descendants, and powerful families naturally occupy the vast majority of resources.
This includes the monster spawning points, ruins, and tombs on their civilized planets!
The best resources have long been monopolized by various families and factions.
Therefore, a 'commoner demon' like Demon Madman Nuke, even with a good profession and Talent, finds it hard to rise because the resources they can obtain are far too few.
All the popular monster spawning points are occupied.
They can only farm scattered wild monsters; not only can they not compare to other demon nobles of the same age, but their leveling speed is far slower even compared to some civilizations that haven't undergone Ascension yet.
From the time Demon Madman Nuke awakened his profession and Talent at age 11, it took him nearly seven days just to level from 1 to 10.
From level 10 to 15, it took an entire month.
It became even more difficult as he progressed…
No monsters to farm, no experience.
No monsters to farm, no equipment.
No monsters to farm, no skill books.
And the equipment and skill books on the market have long been controlled by the demon noble factions. Even low-level skill books are extremely expensive; commoner demons often have to empty out all the tradable lifespan they gained from leveling just to exchange for a tiny bit of development resources.
It is no exaggeration to say…
Within the Demon Civilization, the development environment for commoner demons is much worse than that of the players on Blue Star today!
That Demon Tamer – Madman Nuk could stand out in such an environment shows that his profession and Talent are truly excellent.
But unfortunately, everything he had was given by a Demon Duke named 'Makawaka'.
That Demon Duke Makawaka was willing to spend resources to help Madman Nuke reach the Order Land, but the price was that upon arrival, he had to become an attendant to the Demon Duke's son…
All the precious resources obtained in the Order Land had to be handed over to the Son of Makawaka.
From Demon Madman Nuke's memories, Qin Feng could learn that the Demon Duke 'Makawaka' had cultivated many such 'subordinate servants'. By providing just a tiny bit of resource tilt to each, it was enough to let some truly talented commoner demons stand out.
The cost for the demon nobles was very low.
But the harvest was exceptionally bountiful.
Because only by reaching the Order Land can one obtain precious resources like the 'heart of order'!
Only by using a heart of order and integrating at least one strand of Order into the body can one become an 'Ascendant', truly joining the Order Land.
Otherwise, one is not considered to have truly set foot in the Center of the World…
Previously, Qin Feng thought the condition for becoming a high-level npc after exile was setting foot in the Order Land.
But now it seemed he was wrong.
The real condition was that after reaching the Order Land, one must also obtain a heart of order and integrate at least one strand of Order into the body to become an Ascendant.
“Demon Madman Nuke reached the Order Land, but he never used a heart of order.”
“So he wasn't qualified to become a high-level npc.”
“But in fact, he had already obtained a heart of order once.”
“However, according to the agreement, his heart of order had to be handed over to the Demon Duke's son. In the end, this guy planned to break the contract and go to the Temple to steal the heart of order he had already surrendered. That's why he was punished by the Demon Duke and exiled…”
The Demon Civilization.
This incredibly ancient civilization is one of the behemoth powers in the Order Land.
Of course, since Demon Madman Nuke hadn't stayed in the Order Land for long, he didn't understand the relevant situation very well…
But at the very least, he had truly reached the Order Land!
This finally gave Qin Feng a vague and preliminary understanding of the Order Land.
“They are going to transfer you to my guild. Do you agree?”
At this moment, Qin Feng approached Demon Madman Nuke and asked.
Demon Madman Nuke was two and a half meters tall, but now kneeling on both knees, he looked about the same height as Qin Feng.
Hearing this, he nodded slowly. “We demons revere the strong… With your potential, once you reach the Order Land, you will make countless people submit…”
Qin Feng narrowed his eyes. “Then why did you want to kill me just now?”
By checking the other's memories, Qin Feng knew that this Demon Madman Nuke indeed possessed the strength to completely erase someone within the game.
Just now, this Demon Madman Nuke had indeed intended to kill Qin Feng.
“Your potential is too terrifying.”
Demon Madman Nuke shook his head. “You belong to the human race. In the future, when you reach the Order Land, you will bring great trouble to our Demon Civilization…”
Hearing this, Qin Feng understood.
This made Qin Feng slightly silent. After a pause, he asked, “Your experience in the Demon Civilization wasn't very good, yet you're still willing to fight for it, even willing to give your life?”
Demon Madman Nuke didn't say anything, but clearly, Qin Feng had hit the mark.
As for why he suddenly didn't plan to act anymore, it was naturally because he could clearly feel the gap between himself and Qin Feng.
Since he couldn't kill this human no matter what, why sacrifice himself in vain?
It had to be said that Qin Feng was somewhat moved by Demon Madman Nuke's behavior. Wasn't this much better than those opportunistic lackeys?
Even now, this guy still maintained the pride of the demon race.
Aside from bowing to Qin Feng, Demon Madman Nuke remained neither humble nor arrogant when facing him, without any sense of fawning.
This was the sense of pride for the demon race he had been immersed in since childhood; no matter what situation he was in, it would not change.
From this, one could see how strong the overall power of the Demon Civilization in the Order Land was!
“I, Demon Madman Nuke, as an NPC, am willing to serve you.”
While kneeling, Demon Madman Nuke said to Qin Feng in a low voice, “But if I return to the Order Land one day, I will still choose to return to the Demon Civilization. At that time, we might be enemies!”
“…”
Qin Feng had a bit of a headache from this guy's bluntness. “Go wherever you want, what does it have to do with me?”
At this moment, Qin Feng only cared about what kind of buffs and improvements this guy would bring him!
From Demon Madman Nuke's memories, Qin Feng learned…
To pass the test of this Demon Madman and recruit him as a guild NPC, there were conditions, which were to kill some of the Hell Beasts under his command.
The most basic ones were comparable to Epic-grade, then Legendary, and finally Hell Beasts comparable to Mythic…
The White Bull Guild and the others had used high-level equipment 'smuggled' from Great Xia, and after extensive investigation and detection, they barely managed to kill one of the Epic-grade beasts under Demon Madman Nuke's command, thereby recruiting him into the guild.
And just now, Qin Feng had killed the Cerberus, which was one of the strongest beasts under the Demon Madman's command, with a comprehensive combat power comparable to a Mythic BOSS!
In this case…
Transferring Demon Madman Nuke to Qin Feng's side wouldn't just provide basic functions.
There would also be advanced and high-level functions!
