The battle ended quickly.

Facing the tide of skeleton bombers, the clay golems of the Rock Soul Tribe were left without the power to fight back.

Because before they could even retaliate, those newbies holding bombs would go "Boom! Boom! Boom!" transforming into a fiery meteor shower.

The terrifying power not only threatened the clay golems stationed at the cave's entrance, but the entire illicitly built cave was nearly collapsed by the fervent skeleton soldiers.

And the players were all but displeased, sparing no expense with their lives!

After all, for them, it was simply free contributions and experience!

If the battle hadn't ended so quickly and the resurrection point and armory hadn't been so far from the battlefield, they would've wished to respawn and grind it all over again!

As the Rock Soul Tribe's warriors and children were about to be crushed into dust and scattered in the wind by the Demon King's minions, "Unmoving Elder" who just minutes ago couldn't care less about the Demon King, finally understood the meaning of evil and cruelty.

With no other choices left, the humiliating voice finally came from within the cave.

"Enough! We surrender! You win!"

Hearing the voice filled with suppressed humiliation, Luo Yan chuckled with an icy tone.

"You surrender and I should just accept it?"

The Unmoving Elder was at a loss for words.

"Then, what do you want me to do!?"

Luo Yan said expressionlessly.

"At the very least, show me the sincerity of your surrender."

Unmoving Elder: "Like, like what?"

Like what?

Luo Yan stroked his chin, to be honest, he hadn't fully thought it through.

Before coming here, he only had two plans: either the rebels would mend their ways, bowing in submission, or he would treat them as mining fodder. He hadn't considered a third possibility.

The clay golems had actually developed self-awareness, and even a sense of community and fear of death...

It was a very bizarre situation.

"Alakdo, what do you think would be appropriate?" In times like these, he needed counsel from a cunning advisor, and Luo Yan patted the giant spider's head.

The chief strategic officer of the Weaving Shadow Nest immediately schemed.

"Simple, Lord Demon King! Make that Unmoving Elder of a rotten stone come before you and confess his sins! Then, demote those audacious stones who dared oppose you to slaves! My construction crew could use them, I believe!"

This was not a bad idea.

Calmly looking towards the cave in the front, Luo Yan shouted to the Unmoving Elder, who was suppressing his fury.

"You've heard my subordinate's opinion, what's your answer now?"

A long silence spread throughout the cave. Luo Yan waited awhile, still no response, so he raised his hand, ready to order the second round of assault.

At that moment, a rumble that shook the earth and mountains came from deep within the cave, and a five-meter-tall rock giant slowly emerged from the darkness.

Each of his steps seemed exceptionally heavy, as if he were about to crush the ground beneath.

Being so massive, the spacious cave could barely accommodate him, and he had to bend his back as much as possible to get out.

No wonder Reggie Dragon hadn't brought him along.

Bringing this creature to the surface would probably be harder than exposing the queen of Alachinos from the Weaving Shadow Nest to the sun.

Youyou floated over to Luo Yan's side and whispered.

"Lord Demon King! It has a soul, and it's Bronze level!"

Hearing this, Luo Yan took another look at the large figure.

Just Bronze level?

With the almost physical resistance to both magic and matter evident on its face, he had no doubts it could challenge a silver Swordsman... given enough space to maneuver.

Under the watchful eyes of the clay golems, their king slowly knelt down, his colossal knees touching the ground.

Bowing his composed head of rocks, the Unmoving Elder hid the humiliation and anger on his face and said with a muffled, heavy voice.

"We implore the Lord Demon King to forgive our arrogance and rudeness. By the Demon God above, I swear with my soul, the Rock Soul Tribe never meant to betray Hell, to betray the labyrinth, we merely—"

"Merely thought I wasn't fit to be your lord, is that it?"

Luo Yan lifted his chin slightly, coldly looking down at his bowed head and said carelessly, "I'm not interested in hearing your excuses for treason, nor do I care."

Having said that, he raised his right hand.

Seeing this, the Unmoving Elder's face turned pale, and he quickly said.

"Please, wait a moment! We were wrong... we betrayed Hell, please forgive us, we won't dare do it again!"

As he spoke, he lifted his broad palm, gesturing for the clay golems behind him to also stop resisting and kneel on the ground like him.

Luo Yan remained unmoved, simply saying expressionlessly.

"Just that?"

A sound like grinding stone emanated from the giant like a donkey turning a mill.

After a moment, he spoke with a deep and hoarse voice.

"The Rock Soul Tribe... offers its loyalty to you! From now on, our people shall become your most faithful servants!"

That's more like it.

Luo Yan's face finally showed a hint of satisfaction. He gestured for the summoned skeleton soldiers to put away their weapons and at the same time issued the victory popup to the players.

Watching the rewards being credited, the skeleton soldiers who either arrived too late or hadn't had a chance to die yet started beating their chests and wailing.

"Screwed!!!"

"This sucks!!!"

"I didn't even get to light the fuse!"

"Bro, is there still time?!"

"Seems like it's too late... They've turned into non-targetable entities."
