Chapter 979: Battle for the Tower (Thirteen)
Batman didn't know what Schiller's main job was, but he knew it was definitely not a good thing.
Batman had gradually noticed Schiller's abnormality. Schiller was no longer as weak as he was at the beginning. On the contrary, he began to become a little excited. Judging from the performance of his soul form, his soul began to become more and more active.
This was not a good sign. Batman knew that whether Schiller was weak or excited, it did not mean that he was healthy and normal. When he was mentally weak, he would become more crazy, and when he was mentally excited, he might do more crazy things.
In addition to completing the task of connecting the shadow monster, Batman knew that he had to keep an eye on Schiller to prevent him from making any terrible changes and causing a big mess after leaving hell and returning to the world.
After the meeting, Batman returned to his dormitory, and Rokuko hadn't slept yet, so the two started chatting again.
Rokuko was a little nagging, and the logic of his language was a little confusing. In Batman's ears, he was more like a child with incomplete intellectual development, so it was particularly easy to talk nonsense.
In the subsequent chat, Batman learned that Roku was indeed a newborn. He had awakened less than 100 years ago. Compared with the lifespan of the races in hell, he was still a baby.
But perhaps the previous revenge stimulated him and kept his spirit in a highly excited state. He told Batman many secrets in the mines.
No one knows these mines better than Ying Teng, who has lived here for thousands of years. Roku told Batman that the continental shelf of the entire desolate continent is built on magma. Under the mine, there is a magma sea, which is very dangerous.
The magma sea will recede, and the exposed ore is called lava rock. People who make mistakes in the mines will be sent to carry lava rocks.
The lava rock that just erupted has an extremely high temperature, even hotter than magma. Most races in hell cannot stand such a temperature, including the lava demons born from magma.
In addition, Hexagon also described to Batman the execution scene he had seen in a very fearful tone. The supervisors would use whips to drive the miners who made mistakes to a cliff at the bottom of the central mine, and then push them into the magma sea to burn them to ashes.
Batman would ask his own questions from time to time. Hexagon didn't know the answer to some questions, but Batman would infer possible conclusions from his reactions.
In this way, throughout the second half of the night, Batman emptied all the knowledge that Hexagon knew, which was actually not much, because this little monster that had just been born had never left the Seven Mountains Mine.
At the beginning of the second day, Batman clearly felt that the atmosphere in the mine had changed, and everyone was very nervous.
Batman hadn't even woken up completely when the supervisor roughly opened the door, dragged all the miner slaves out of the cell, and took them to the square outside.
When all the slaves stood in a row, the supervisor cleared his throat and said: "I want to tell you that from today, we have big things to do!"
"This morning, the great Majesty Belial declared war on Astro!"
"The army has reached the border, and the endless armor and weapons in the rear will become the magic weapon for the soldiers to win!"
"General Fuxin, who rules the Seven Hills Mine, has promised His Majesty that although the Seven Hills Mine is the second largest mine under His Majesty's command, it must strive to win the first output!"

"From today on, all rest time and meal time are cancelled. You must work in the mine day and night until the mission goal is achieved. No one is allowed to leave the mine before the target output is achieved!"
"I know that some weak demons cannot survive without food, but you must know that if you fail to complete the mission, your fate will be worse than starving to death!"
"In order to urge your work efficiency. General Rot Heart borrowed many eye demons from his fellow tribesmen. They will stare at you everywhere in the mine..."
The demon supervisor snorted coldly, and then Batman saw a huge eyeball floating from the center of the mine into the air.
Many smaller eyeballs flew out from behind him and flew to various corners of the mine. They were connected by purple nerves. It seemed that everything seen by those small eyeballs would be transmitted back to the big eyeball.
"General Rotheart is in the palace above the Big Eye Demon's head. He's watching every one of you. If anyone dares to be lazy..."
All of a sudden, all the miners and slaves trembled, but they were more afraid of the death mentioned by the supervisor, and did not have sufficient expectations for what they would experience next, but Batman had already anticipated it.
As expected, after entering the mine, there were eyeball demons everywhere, staring at everyone who entered the mine.
And many demons who had not yet reacted, as usual, picked up their pickaxes and started working, but not long after, a team of supervisors broke in.
"You! And you!" The supervisor leader held a whip, pointed at the two dwarf demons, and said ferociously: "The Eye Demon saw you two being lazy! Walked twice with the empty basket, follow us!"
These two overseers are both humanoid demons. One has blue skin and the other has red skin. The red-skinned demon is very tall. When they pick up the dwarf demon, these two little demons Can't even fight.

"Where are they taking him? What happened to him?"
"Why can't we just hold the empty basket? What on earth are we going to do now? What the hell is going on?"
Chirping discussions started, but when the beholder glanced over again, everyone closed their mouths and worked in silence.
The overseer came several times and took away one or two slaves each time. It was not until the break time was almost over and everyone was taken to the lowest level of the mine and saw the group of demons hanging in the net that they You know what General Rotten Heart is going to do.
The lowest level of the mine is a huge cavity. There is only a small piece of ground at the entrance to stand on. There is a cliff on the opposite side. There is a hole behind the cliff. Obviously, there is another road leading there.
At this time, there was a tall pillar standing on the edge of the cliff, with a horizontal rod on it, exploring towards the lava sea in front. At the end of the horizontal rod, there was a large net, and the net was taken away during the day. of miners.
From Batman's perspective, there are at least dozens of various demons in the web. They are all struggling and calling out, obviously having foreseen their own destiny.
Almost all the slaves were brought here and gathered together by the overseers to watch the execution ceremony.
After a while, General Rotten Heart appeared. He slowly walked up to the edge of the cliff. Against the backdrop of the firelight of the lava sea, he looked very majestic.
It was a humanoid demon with dark green skin. According to Rokkaku's description, he should be a type of ancient demon, with a tall body, thick limbs and a head like a fly.
The reason why he was called General Rotten Heart was because there was a fluorescent green pattern blooming from the inside out on his chest, which looked like it had been mutated by radiation.
He held a harpoon-like weapon in his hand. When he spoke, the hoarse and rough voice made people's eardrums hurt.
"Look at these scum! The idiots who work lazy! The criminals who dare to disobey my orders, they will-"
General Rotheart deliberately dragged out a long note, then raised his voice and said, "They will be sunk into the molten lava and scalded to death!"
"Watch out, if you prevent me from completing my mission, this will be your fate!"
After saying that, he controlled the big net and slowly dropped it until he came to the sky above the molten sea. The devil's skin at the bottom was almost in contact with the magma, and was burned to the point of screaming, while the devil above it screamed. , constantly grasping the mesh of the big net, trying to climb up, letting out heart-rending screams.
Batman saw Schiller's figure in the crowd, but at this time, the professor had a look of disgust on his face, as if he thought the devil's cry was too harsh, but Batman felt that Schiller might be resenting General Corruption. Such an unsightly approach.
After dealing with these mentally ill people for a long time, Batman discovered that he could also judge whether something was in line with their values from their perspective.
This type of madman hates massacre very much. They feel that it is a waste of precious life, and they do not take pleasure in killing their own kind in large numbers. On the contrary, they hate this kind of thing very much, saying that it is "repetitive and boring assembly line work" and "more suitable for butchers who slaughter chickens and cows." They feel that such behavior is neither beautiful nor artistic enough.
However, General Rouxin had no idea that his purpose of killing the chicken to scare the monkeys was achieved. Now, most of the slave miners knelt or lay down. They kept crying and begging the overseers and the general to let them go.
The fear of death is unavoidable for intelligent creatures. In the face of death, whether humans, demons or angels, all life is equal and fears are equal.
However, General Rotten Heart seemed to want to deliberately torture these demons who were being executed. He used his bow and arrow to shoot at the rope of the big net, but he deliberately missed the shot, causing the arrow to miss and break the edge of the rope, causing the entire net to fall apart. Shake it up.
Cries and screams were mixed together. In such an environment, Batman felt that there was something like hell here.
And among the chaotic sounds, there was only the loud laughter of General Rotten Heart, which penetrated the mountain and echoed in the sky of hell. There was no sun there, only the lava that had been gurgling for thousands of years.
With the sound of "Winter", the big net finally fell into the magma. The screams of the demons dying were engraved in the hearts of every demon, so that when they returned to the dark mine, Everyone was a little confused.
Batman knows that such an execution drama provides him with the best opportunity. These slaves who are addicted to panic need someone who can comfort them and lead them.
Just when Batman selected the target, another team of overseers came in. This time, they pulled in two empty mine carts along the track. The leading overseer said:
"Before tomorrow morning, I hope to see you filling these two carriages, otherwise, you will all be thrown into the lava!"
Hearing this, all the miners were stunned. Looking at the two huge transport carriages, many people began to cry.
"How is this possible?! This is absolutely impossible! This is the workload of seven or eight days. How can it be completed in one night??!!"
"There are not so many mines here. We don't have time to dig the rock layer. Without the piercing demons and the blasting tail demons, we can't dig the rock layer. Even if we dig it, it will collapse!"
"Who can come to save me! I don't want to fall into the magma and be scalded to death!"
Just then, Batman saw that a dwarf demon who was crying and unconscious bumped into his legs. He lowered his head, picked up the dwarf demon, and asked him:
"Is it really impossible to dig so many mines in one night?"
"Of course not! Of course! This is impossible!!!"
Batman looked around the scene in the mine, silently estimated the number of surface minerals in his mind, then shook his head and whispered:
"Maybe not."
