Chapter 157 156.
The girl's crying echoed in the small, shabby lounge. Luo Dai and Du Wei looked at each other, neither of them could say anything to comfort them.

When the girl's grief-stricken cry gradually faded, Luo Dai stepped forward and said in a gentle and peaceful voice: "It's okay, no one will hurt you here, I...we will protect you.

"So, you have to tell us first what happened to you."

The girl looked at Luodai for a long time. Perhaps because she knew that Luodai was a succubus, the resentment and fear that were originally hidden in her eyes had subsided a lot.

She opened her mouth and her eyes flickered, but she seemed to have thought of something again, and her eyes were again covered with a shadow. After a long time, she squeezed out a sentence: "Run away quickly."

"Escape? Where to? Why are you running away?" Luo Dai was confused, while Du Wei frowned secretly.

The girl did not answer, but looked down at her body. Only then did she realize that she was wrapped in bandages in several places.

"This is……"

"Sorry, I'm a bit clumsy, so this is the only way to deal with it." Luo Dai looked ashamed.

The girl closed her eyes and carefully felt the condition of her body. After the magic pattern was destroyed, there was not a trace of magic power left in her body. According to the situation at the time, it would not be surprising even if she died.

Rather, perhaps death is a relief.

But although she was weak now, she could vaguely feel that her previously broken life had been continued. It was the two people in front of her who saved her.

"You are a good person, so run away."

"I don't understand why you want to run away."

Looking at Luo Dai's blood-red eyes, the girl felt a little sad while admiring her beauty.

"If they knew that there were succubi like you in this city, they would definitely try every means to capture you."

"The 'they' you are talking about are the two people from the daytime?" asked Rodei.

The girl showed a puzzled expression. She didn't know who the two people in the daytime that Luo Dai was talking about were.

So Rodei told her everything about how she found her in the alley and how she took her away.

"Who are they and why are they looking for you?"

The person asking the question was Du Wei.

"Who imprisoned you?"

"Du Wei!" Luo Dai looked at Du Wei with dissatisfaction, accusing him of asking too directly.

"Miss, if you ask like that, you won't get any answers until dawn."

"Then you should also consider your words carefully!"

Luo Dai scolded Du Wei rudely and told him to stand aside and not to interrupt.

Du Wei had no choice but to rest his chin on his head and continue to play with the demon doll with a broken arm out of boredom.

To be honest, it is indeed realistic. It is really realistic.

After all, Rodei is a girl, and she is a succubus like the girl, so it is easier for her to get close to the girl.

After asking, Luo Dai learned that the girl's name was Vivian and she originally lived in the plains in the south of the demon world.

Even in the demon world, succubi are a relatively special race, and one of their habits is that they do not like to live in groups.

The reason is simple. Succubi have a demand for males. When the demand exceeds the supply, the local males suffer and are prone to die young.

Once the succubi live together in groups, it means that the local male demons will be in trouble.

But this is how it used to be.

Nowadays, the demon world has been impacted by the culture of the human world, and trade has undergone a qualitative leap. It doesn’t matter if there are no males, as long as there is money.

Just like Mrs. Lal.

Therefore, in the southern part of the Demon Realm, there was a group of succubi who, after sucking dry 80% of the local males, finally ushered in a change in which they could eat and drink as much as they wanted.

They made deals with major manufacturers and purchased large quantities of the essence of various races at low prices.

The local male residents were liberated, and the succubi no longer had to compete with the tribesmen for food. Although canned food was not as good as fresh food, under the leadership of the tribe leader, every sister had enough food to eat.

It can be said that it is precisely because they absorbed the knowledge of the human world and focused on developing industry and trade that they directly changed their way of survival for thousands of years.

Gradually, their territory grew larger and larger, because it was heard that they could purchase the essence of various races at prices much lower than the market price.

Some succubi that were idle outside also came here, and many of them settled here for a long time.

In the past two or three decades, it has become a veritable succubus territory.

Vivian was born in the succubus territory.

"In that case, why did you come to Midgar?"

According to Luo Dai's thinking, since she doesn't have to worry about starving to death, it would definitely be most comfortable to stay at home and be a stay-at-home mom.

Unexpectedly, the girl's reaction was beyond Luo Dai's expectations.

"Is this the city of Midgar?"

"You don't know? Then how did you get here?"

The girl shook her head and didn't answer immediately.

While Du Wei was listening to the conversation between Luo Dai and Vivian, he noticed that the girl would look at him with strange eyes from time to time.

At first Du Wei thought she was looking at him. After all, Du Wei was handsome and he also acted like a hero saving a beautiful girl, so it was not uncommon for him to be liked by her.

But later Du Wei discovered that the girl was not looking at him, but at the magical doll he was playing with.

And in that look, one could say there was deep hatred hidden.

Beyond hatred is fear.

So when Rodei asked where her home was, she was silent again.

After a long time.

"…I no longer have a home."

"Eh?"

“Our house was burned down, my father was killed to protect me, my brother’s life or death is unknown, and I was arrested.

"Besides me, many other members of our tribe were captured. Some of them are from my hometown, and some are from all over the Demon Realm."

"Why did they capture so many succubi?" Du Wei asked in confusion. Vivian's eyes were fixed on the demon puppet beside Du Wei.

Du Wei was obviously stunned: "No, no way?"

"Charging a demon puppet, do you know?"

Du Wei had already thought of something, but Luo Dai still didn't understand why the question suddenly jumped to the magical doll.

"Isn't that a sex toy?"

"Indeed, this is their business. They are a company that manufactures and sells demon-charged dolls."

Du Wei noticed a key point and asked, "When you say 'they', do you mean Aix Technology or Mega Group?"

"I, don't know..." The girl shook her head in pain.

"I'm sorry, please continue."

From her point of view, she probably hasn't even seen what the mastermind behind the scenes looks like.

"Low-level magic-charged puppets can be driven no matter what kind of magic power is injected into them as long as there is magic power, but the high-level puppets they produce are different."

“This is because the high-end dolls they produce are made using the succubus’s lustful magic.

"They call us succubi who provide magic and lust to puppets, archetypes."

"The puppets produced in this way not only have their skills and functions upgraded to a higher level, but most importantly, in the process of mating with the puppet, the puppet can awaken part of the original's consciousness, which makes it no longer like a puppet, but a real succubus."

"So in a sense, this can no longer be considered a demon doll."

Du Wei said in a deep voice: "...clone."

"And it costs the succubus her own life to create a large number of puppets that look like her."

“It is said that humans living in another world love this commodity very much, so they…capture succubi in large numbers. Moreover, they have powerful firepower, and anyone who resists them will die.

“Since I was captured here, I have been locked up with other succubi. They have not allowed us to take in essence for days...weeks.

“We were going crazy with hunger and no matter how much we begged them, they wouldn’t let us drink even a drop.

"Later, they took the other tribesmen to a closed room. Those who came back from the room all looked like they were broken."

Succubi have an innate desire for males, and although there are individual differences, if an adult succubus does not consume essence for more than a week, its body functions will begin to decline, and a long period of time without intake will affect its lifespan.

The "starved" succubus will be taken to a sealed cabin, where a large amount of essence diluted with special potions will be injected.

The body of a succubus that has not absorbed essence for a long time will instinctively speed up the absorption, releasing a large amount of magical power containing lust in the process.

This method is detrimental to the life of the succubus, but the magic power generated only in this way is the most obscene.

Then use magic tubes to connect the succubus' lower body, extract the magic power from their bodies, and inject it into other sealed cabins where the puppets are placed.

That group of people used this technology to maximize the extraction of the magic power of the succubus and injected it into the puppets, achieving the transformation from one to a hundred.

The succubus whose magic power has been extracted will then be recycled to produce the next level of dolls.

They are like livestock whose five senses are blocked and who are forced to conceive and produce milk repeatedly. They have no human rights at all.

Luo Dai's face turned pale. Just imagining that scene made her feel like her stomach was boiling with acid and she might vomit at any time: "Then you, you also...?"

The girl shook her head. "I tried to escape before that, but I failed and was caught by them again. I couldn't bear to become that kind of livestock, so I had no choice but to..."

She gently stroked her belly, tears silently dripping from her eyes.

Both Du Wei and Luo Dai were shocked by the girl's words.

If what the girl said was true, then such behavior clearly violated the laws of the demon world and was even outrageous.

It was simply outrageous to both humans and gods. Among all the incidents Du Wei had encountered so far, this was the only one that made him feel sick.

"How many days have you not drunk?"

"...I don't know, one month, or two months."

Luo Dai looked at her worriedly: "Then your body..."

Afterwards, Luo Dai glanced at Du Wei, hesitant in her heart, and gritted her teeth and said, "How about Du Wei, let her..."

"I don't need it anymore."

Luo Dai was stunned for a moment, then she understood the meaning of her words and showed a sad expression again.

Vivian touched her belly.

"I have lost the magic pattern, so I no longer need to replenish my essence. Giving it to someone like me would only be a waste."

At this time, Luo Dai's eyes were already full of moisture.

Even Du Wei, who was usually cheerful, couldn't laugh out loud this time.

a long time.

"Is there anything we can do to help you?" Rodei asked solemnly.

"Help, help me?" Vivian looked surprised.

"I don't need your help. I'm telling you that those people are very powerful, and you're a succubus. They won't let you go. You'd better run away."

What the girl said was also what Du Wei was thinking.

But Du Wei knew that after Luo Dai heard what happened to the girl, no matter what he said, it would not affect Luo Dai's decision.

"Du Wei..."

Luo Dai looked at Du Wei with an apologetic look.

"Miss, just say what's on your mind." Du Wei said with a smile.

Feeling Du Wei's recognition, Luo Dai expressed gratitude from the bottom of her heart.

"Thank you, Du Wei."

Immediately, Luo Dai took a deep breath and looked at the girl with firm eyes.

“I won’t run away. Not only that, I will also find a way to rescue all your people.

"So please let us help you."
