Chapter 3, The Day of Summoning, The Time of Betting One's Life

This is also why there are no records in all historical accounts of individuals who have fallen into the demonic race being able to repent and return to the right path

Moreover, given Jenn's current situation, even if he were to obtain a rare unit with a 100% probability, he cannot afford to demand every type of rare unit. Although rare troops are powerful, they also consume resources at an exceptional rate. Currently, Jenn's dungeon is impoverished, lacking even sufficient food; it is barely enough for him, and if a few more gluttons were to join, everyone would face starvation together

Once the marked individual completes their task, they will experience a profound sense of happiness and fulfillment. This will further motivate them to strive for their master, and as this gradually becomes a cycle, the marked individual will automatically become immersed in it, requiring no brainwashing, ultimately becoming the most loyal subordinate and servant of the demon lord

Let us set aside idle chatter and discuss the matter at hand

The whispers of the deceased echoed in his ears, and upon hearing this, a smile finally appeared on Jan's face

Gazing at the summoning crystal before him, Jan let out a soft sigh. He then raised his head and glanced at the oil shell steel aluminum displayed on the system ahead. Ahem, the stone silver treasure crystal, and then he frowned.

At this point, Jan had already come up with an idea. He merely moved his fingers slightly in the air, and soon, he had adjusted the resources accordingly

Even if one can achieve a one hundred percent rarity, there is still a requirement for racial selection. Only by combining certain proportions can one summon the desired race. Jan indeed wishes to summon powerful units such as bone dragons or vampires; however, unfortunately, he lacks sufficient resources and has not established a treasure vault or a graveyard. Therefore, even if the summoning probability is adjusted to one hundred percent rarity, it is absolutely impossible to summon the corresponding units.

However, it is unfortunate that the demonic clan's imprint is not without its drawbacks. That is to say, unless the other party is willing or there is an insurmountable disparity in strength between the two sides, the imprint can only be implanted; otherwise, it will be negated. If the demonic clan's imprint were truly that powerful, they would have long since emerged from the dark depths and unified the continent.

Summon

Although he is not at the level where he can masterfully control resources and troops, Jan can easily increase the probability of obtaining the rare troops he desires by adjusting resources. This is a result he achieved after conducting thousands of experiments and calculating data models.

The allocation of summoned resources has been determined. Should we proceed with the summoning?

Indeed, this is the crux of the matter. Every demon lord has a large group of monsters serving him. This is also true for other candidates for demon lord. My elder brother Klein commands the Black Knight Corps, which is the most elite force in the demon realm, while my second sister Lilith wields the Dark Elves and Succubi Legion, which are lethal weapons that kill without a trace in the darkness

Now, Jan is somewhat regretting that, in order to vent his frustration and annoy the other party, he only modified the rare probability. Had he known it would come to this, he should have altered all the data related to "something happened...." At that point, wouldn't it be a matter of killing whoever stands in his way, regardless of whether they are human or Buddha... Forget it, discussing this now is pointless.

It seems that he made the right bet

After carefully inspecting the summoning crystal once again, Bix stood up and timidly spoke to Jan. The current Bix was no longer the filthy dwarf slave she once was. The dirty long robe had long been replaced by a black and white maid outfit, complemented by white stockings and doe-skin boots, which indeed gave her a certain maid-like charm

However, the summoning crystal still needs to be constructed. To expand his influence, it is naturally necessary to have more guards. Jan cannot rely solely on himself and those goblins mining to protect his dungeon. He looks down on the orcs with low intelligence and the clawed monsters. Therefore, after completing the daily tasks assigned by the system and regaining the right to construct the summoning crystal, Jan immediately and decisively chose to build the summoning crystal

Although the words were quite tragic, Jan's lips curled into a strange smile. The reason was simple; Jan had long since grasped the summoning mechanism of this dungeon system.

Without the ability to gain assistance from external sources, Jan could only place his hopes on the summoning crystal within the dungeon. In fact, at the very beginning, Jan did have an opportunity to construct a summoning crystal. However, unfortunately, at that time he was still in the Demon Realm and was unable to develop the dungeon. Therefore, in the end, Jan gave up on building the summoning crystal and instead summoned Enoia

I was struck by lightning and died after modifying the system, then I crossed over to this place. So... does this mean that the current system I have is also modified? In other words, can I summon rare troops with one hundred percent certainty?

I never expected that due to the exceedingly rare summoning probability, I would be targeted by the game company, which then used the excuse of an inconsequential bot script to ban my account. This is not even an MMORPG, and it involves controlling characters to escape. Are they really going to ban someone just for using an auto-clicking mouse?

Very good

When mentioning the dungeon of the demon king, what is the first thing that comes to mind

However, for Jan, the demon clan's seal has other uses

Wanting to reach here with the - picture - book, even Zhan En couldn't help but feel a bit excited. Although there are many rare troops, some of which are indeed underperformers, even the least capable among them is still a rare troop! No matter which one comes out, isn't it better than the data of ordinary troops? Moreover, I have a built-in system, so I don't have to worry about the game company reverting it back!

Master, the summoning crystal has been completed

However, it doesn't matter, because before being struck by lightning and crossing over, Jan had already directly increased the rare summoning rate in the main server system to 100 percent. ... Hahaha, I really want to see the expression on the game company's face when they discover that all players, regardless of free top-ups, are summoning rare units as if they were free ... ! ... Wait a minute !

Therefore, it is best to have a small amount of food, low consumption, and units that can fight...! ... The decision is yours!

Upon thinking of this, Jan quickly regained his composure. Regardless of whether it was true or not, a simple experiment would reveal the answer. Thus, Jan did not dwell on it any longer, but instead reached out his hand and waved through the air. Soon, another line of system prompts appeared.

[Ore (15) Mercury (10) Gemstone (15) Crystal (9)]

For those who have received the demonic imprint, no matter how hard you try to awaken them, it is utterly meaningless. This is because they are not being controlled in their minds, nor are they brainwashed; rather, they have willingly submitted to their master. What can you do about such individuals?

The crystal begins to tremble.

It does not compel the engraver to pledge loyalty and obedience, but rather gradually exerts influence deep within the other party's heart, suggesting to them that before them stands their master. As long as they complete the tasks assigned to them, they will feel great joy and happiness

In simple terms, it is somewhat similar to the Age of Discovery. The old empires initially set sail across the oceans with invincible fleets to explore new continents. Therefore, even when encountering indigenous people who might scream in chaos, a few cannon shots would be enough to scare them into fleeing in all directions. At that point, whether to capture slaves or establish colonies would depend on their mood

Upon hearing Bix's report, Jan waved his hand dismissively, while Bix lowered her head, displaying a hint of joy, and obediently stepped aside.

Fortunately, Jan understood this very well and did not seek help. Otherwise, his ultimate fate would likely have been to be sidelined and used as a puppet

To activate the summoning crystal, please provide the summoning materials

As for the Black Dragon Legion commanded by Fourth Sister Vivian, it is even more terrifying. The demons, who roam freely in the Demon Realm, tremble in fear and cower with their heads held, shaken by the deafening roars. Even Fifth Sister Nabelius, who has a relatively calm temperament, possesses the formidable power to easily flatten any underground force.

Had I known this would be the case, I would have changed all the system attributes to 99999 from the very beginning

A vast and intricate labyrinth, insidious and terrifying traps, and... powerful and fearsome monsters

And the day of destiny is upon us

On the surface, this dwarf seems to have undergone no changes compared to before. However, Jan knows that after receiving his demonic imprint, Bix has already undergone a transformation

Compared to this, returning to one's hometown is almost negligible

If she were on Earth, I fear that Jan would be arrested for employing child labor—although, logically speaking, this girl who appears to be around ten years old is actually nearly eighty years old.

It has proven to be a very wise decision for Jan.

Moreover, apart from this, the character, knowledge, and memory of the engraver and the *illustrator* will remain unchanged

Three upright rhombohedral crystals emitted a soft magical glow in a rhythmic manner, as if some kind of wave was present. Soon, a dark and profound spatial rift slowly opened in the center of the crystals arranged in a "品" shape. A howling cold wind surged forth, echoing through the narrow space. The air began to grow cold and damp, and layers of white frost appeared on the ground. The howling cold wind surged forth, echoing through the narrow space.

It is as if for Biki, she still clearly remembers her hometown, her parents, and her friends. Her feelings for them have not changed at all. However, she no longer thinks about returning to her hometown. Under the influence of the imprint, what is most important to Biki at present is to serve her master.

This is also the consistent orthodox path of every Demon Lord's successor—once they begin constructing their own dungeons, the successors of the Demon Lords will command their armies to sweep away all intelligent races surrounding the dungeons like a whirlwind, either to take them as slaves or to use them as guards

Just a moment ago, he suddenly realized something very important

However, Jan was completely destitute, starting from scratch. This is not surprising, as in the demon race, strength is paramount. Without demonstrating sufficient power, how could Jan possibly gain the loyalty of subordinates so easily

Unlike the contracts with mages and mental control, the markings of the demon race do not forcibly brainwash individuals, turning them into idiots who know nothing except for their master. On the contrary, the markings of the demon race are more insidious, cunning, and significantly more difficult to break.

At this thought, Jan's movements suddenly came to a halt

The day of summoning, the time of risking one's life. Whether it is the right or the wrong, or the demon of the right or the demon of the wrong, it all depends on the present moment
