Chapter 1: Going to the Sea to Shoot Films
Invasion of the city-state
What originally appeared to be a rather luxuriously decorated room was instead cluttered with a large pile of unknown items on the floor, to such an extent that even someone like Qiao Xiu, who did not have much of a cleanliness obsession, couldn't help but frown.
A noble chaotic demon? That sounds quite good
If it were not for the menacing demon standing beside Qiao Xiu, he would truly find it hard to believe that this is the Demon Realm
This village was naturally subjected to slaughter both inside and out, and in the end, it was this demon prince who could not bear to see it any longer. He summoned his guards from the demon realm to eradicate those bandits completely
Your Highness! According to your command, all the robbers who plundered this village have been killed. Should the villagers be killed as well?
Qiao Xiu pointed at a figure in the distant pile of corpses that was attempting to escape before stepping into the portal
This village has just experienced a massacre
Qiao Xiu had not yet decided what to do after crossing into this world
Your Highness, do you not intend to take this opportunity to invade the surrounding city-states
In my memory, this is the royal capital of the demon realm—Yanorod. The name of this city in the demon language means "the border of the abyss." The specific connotation is not very clear to Joshu, but in any case, the place where Joshu currently finds himself is the most central area of the main city
Is there no servant to manage the room in this place? Joshua recalled his memory backup once again
Not interested, not interested
Camera and storage card
After emerging from the portal, he was welcomed by a group of human merchants. However, this merchant caravan was soon attacked by a band of robbers while they were resting in a village
By the way, there is still one person alive over there at Zenus
This sudden crossing came too unexpectedly, without any signs at all
Your Highness
The robber was very clever, disguising himself as a corpse to deceive everyone, but he was a bit too hasty
Qiao Xiu can accept the idea of time travel, but what he cannot accept is that he has transformed into a non-human creature.
The name of this monster surged into Joshua's memory, surprisingly, Joshua did not feel afraid due to the terrifying appearance of this monster
At the age of seventeen, he always invents some peculiar things, causing the entire city to be in chaos from time to time. Now, the demons throughout the city basically use a very vivid derogatory term to describe this demon prince
This naive demon prince sneaked into the human world, driven by his curiosity about humanity.
I finally figured out that all the clutter piled up on the floor of the room is the "research成果" of this demon prince
After flipping through the introductions and functions of these two little gadgets in his memory, Qiao Xiu preferred to name these two items.
The environment of the demon realm is not as terrible as Joshua had imagined; at least the sky is a deep blue, and the surrounding temperature is warm and moderate
Magic Energy Imaging Device
Your Highness, they are the last surviving humans of this village
Qiao Xiu barely recognized the open books and some crystals scattered on the ground, while the rest were various odd-shaped trinkets
"First, keep them locked up and feed them some food; do not let them starve to death, as I still have use for them."
Demon of Sin · Zenathus
There is no need for Qiao Xiu to express everything; Zenas has already understood it clearly.
The clutter in his room consists of the unfinished products from previous research
The villagers bound by thorns, upon seeing the approaching menacing demon, all revealed expressions of fear and uncertainty as they looked at him
Qiao Xiu instinctively looked in the direction pointed by the monster, where flames engulfed the surroundings, the ground was piled with corpses, and an indescribable stench of blood and charred remains filled the air
No need, just tie him up and take him away
In fact, compared to humans, Joshua is more inclined to be a goblin or a gnome
The individual beside Qiao Xiu, Zenath, is a high-ranking Sin Demon, serving as his personal guard. One can tell from his imposing appearance just how powerful the Sin Demon race is.
As you command
Your Highness, should we confine these humans in a cage? Zehnas asked
Joshua Yanorod, the third son of the Demon Realm ruler "Notrain", is somewhat different from his exceptionally gifted elder brother and sister. From birth, Joshua has possessed a unique quality that sets him apart.
This refers to the palace where the ruler of the demon realm and his offspring reside
Qiao Xiu certainly does not care about the demon prince's pitiable curiosity, which is rather childish, and he is not in the mood to attack humans at the moment
After Qiao Xiu issued this command to his guards, he proceeded deeper into the castle
Perhaps one could make films in another world; if that is not feasible, one could create some card games, such as Magic: The Gathering or Hearthstone, and then write a few novels and draw some comics, wouldn't that be wonderful
The surviving villagers were bound together by a plant covered in thorns, and their clothing was not the modern attire familiar to Joshua; rather, it resembled garments worn in medieval Europe.
Qiao Xiu's memory finally cleared a little, and a hideous-looking monster was standing beside him, while the concerned greeting came from the mouth of this monster
As you command, Your Highness
... ...
Qiao Xiu整理了一下自己的记忆,恶魔是一个多种族混居的族群,那些劣鬼是位于社会最底层的恶魔,智力低下,身体素质也差到和人类无异,唯一的优点就是繁殖速度比较快
The demon of sin, Zenas, obeyed Joshua's command. With a hand covered in scales, he waved towards the void, and a portal made of eerie green light appeared before Joshua
The legacy left by the three princes inspired Qiao Xiu
Interesting
More than ten small-sized goblins jumped out of the portal, seizing the villagers entangled in thorny vines and dragging them into the portal amidst their powerless resistance and cries of despair
The demon of sin, Zenathus, spoke once again. Standing nearly two meters tall, he resembled a creature that was a hybrid of a lion and a lizard, and as he spoke, a ghostly green flame issued from his mouth
Most demon forms are vastly different from humans. Fortunately for Joshua, although his race belongs to the highest echelon of the demon group, his appearance is surprisingly similar to that of humans, with the only difference being the presence of two horns on his forehead
Qiao Xiu has not yet figured out what is happening. Just a few seconds ago, he was a game designer burning the midnight oil in his office to meet the deadline for his game proposal. A few seconds later, he found himself in this strange world, accompanied by a demon who obeys his every command.
The village was spared from the disaster of extermination, yet from the fearful expressions in the eyes of those villagers, it was evident that being kidnapped by demons was far more despairing than being plundered by bandits
Qiao Xiu navigated through the intricate paths of the main city according to his memory, returning to the area where the demon prince originally resided
This place is indeed chaotic
His scaled hands grasped a double-edged spear, the surface of which flowed with a liquid resembling magma
As an artist, Qiao Xiu feels it is essential to spread the culture of the Earth to this world, no, it should be said to invade this world
"Go back, Zenus," Joshua said
Joshua entered the interior of the castle, and the life of this demon prince was much more ... ... disheveled than Joshua had imagined
Not everyone likes to regard battles, becoming stronger, and similar pursuits as the ultimate ideals of their lives; Joshu, for one, is not particularly interested in power.
Accompanied by terrifying screams and the sound of flesh being torn apart, Joshua stepped into the portal
However, the talent displayed by this third prince in disciplines such as "Mechanical Engineering," "Magical Engineering," and "Crystal Construction" can only be described as frenzied.
Fortunately, Qiao Xiu's adaptability is not much different from that of a slug. Moreover, since the original soul within this body has not yet dissipated, Qiao Xiu did not exhibit any abnormalities and naturally accepted the current situation.
The surviving humanity
Qiao Xiu took another look at the surrounding environment. Based on the organized memories, Qiao Xiu understood the reason for being here.
Volcanoes that could erupt at any moment, lava flowing on the ground, and a sky thickly covered with volcanic ash—these scenes, which are part of the modern perception of hell, are completely absent here
Qiao Xiu's consciousness was somewhat hazy; he could only hear someone calling him from beside his ear, a muffled yet caring voice.
Despicable humans
The portal leads to a garden, where unknown flowers bloom on the ground, emitting faint blue particles of light
