Countless grotesque limbs of various types shot up from their flesh, creating a creepy scene. These limbs were of various shapes, some like sharp bone spurs, some like twisted tentacles, and some like hideous claws. However, they appeared only for a brief moment and disappeared incredibly quickly, as if they had never existed.
The scene of eyeballs bursting open, ears and noses falling off, and blood spilling everywhere was like a horrible nightmare playing out before his eyes. One after the other, evil, greedy, and crazed eyeballs suddenly appeared from the indescribable pile of flesh and blood, as if they were prying eyes from the depths of hell. And ugly mouths grew crazily from the corpse, emitting chilling howls that seemed to pierce the soul and send shivers down the spine.
All these changes made Caelan clearly feel that there seemed to be countless souls fiercely fighting for control of this pile of flesh and blood, as if a cruel war were raging fiercely in the unseen realm.
In the end, all the extra facial features disappeared, as if erased by an invisible hand because a powerful and special soul had finally waited for the opportunity to be reborn and return to the real world after countless years of withering in the Dark Abyss.
This strange mass of flesh slowly formed a complete entity in front of Caelan. It was a monster with a body as large as a small mountain and an extremely bloated figure. It stood there quietly, like a terrifying mountain of flesh, giving people an endless sense of oppression. From top to bottom, the monster's body was covered in bloody iron cages, which exuded a sinister aura in the dim light. Although the iron cages were currently empty, Caelan could easily imagine the tragic abuse that the creatures once imprisoned within had suffered.
Moreover, the monster's purplish-red skin was covered in large and small tubercular wonders. Those sarcomas hung from the monster's body like ugly fruits. With every breath the monster took, those sarcomas even unabashedly sprayed a certain foul-smelling gas outward, and the stench filled the air, making people sick.
However, after this monster returned to the world, it did not immediately plunge into endless chaos like the other demons. Instead, the monster, which was more than three meters taller than Caelan's head, obediently lowered its body. Its movements were slow and heavy as if it carried boundless awe in every action. Just like a loyal subject meeting his emperor, it lay at Caelan's feet and looked at the Abyss Codex clutched in his hands with its four pairs of scarlet eyes.
The moment it saw the Codex, the greed and tyranny in its scarlet eyes instantly disappeared, replaced by endless fear and instinctive obedience.
“Oh, supreme Abyssal Sovereign, thank you for your summons from the Dark Abyss. I, a humble being, offer you endless loyalty!”
Caelan felt a complex array of emotions well up in his heart. He looked at the huge, strange monster before him and felt an unprecedented sense of power.

=====================================
What amazing attributes!
Caelan was full of surprise. He never expected that the first hero he recruited would have Rare quality tiers. The attributes were so strong that they exceeded his imagination.
The tale has been taken without authorization; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident.
Morrigan's initial level was only 1, but she possessed extremely high STR. What was even more terrifying was her initial HP, which was astonishingly high. With a total of 195 HP, she is like an impregnable fortress of blood.
Judging from Morrigan's attributes and skills, with her high STR and CON, she can be described as a super-powerful frontline tank. She is like a towering fortress of war, able to stand firmly on the frontline of the battlefield, fending off countless attacks from her teammates behind her. For Caelan, her addition is undoubtedly a great boost to the strength of his team.
What made Caelan excited was Morrigan's passive skill, Evil Miasma. Under the influence of that poison gas, the demons could actually gain an increase in their ATT.
However, at the moment, Morrigan was only level 1, so for the time being, she could only have an enhancing effect on Lesser Demon, a level 0 soldier. Caelan could already see the future: as Morrigan's level continued to increase, the combat effectiveness of the demon army would rocket upwards.
“No need to stay on your stomach anymore, stand up.”After carefully reviewing the attributes of the Evil Miasma Demon Queen, Caelan ordered Morrigan, who was kneeling in front of him, to stand up.
This was not a warm-hearted act of consideration on the part of Caelan for his subordinate, but rather a practical measure necessitated by the sheer size of Evil Miasma Demon Queen Morrigan. Her enormous body, simply by lying there, was like a heavy mountain, beginning to block normal access to the Abyssal Gate, as if even the air was being squeezed out.
“Thank you, great Abyssal Sovereign!”Morrigan said in a low, respectful voice.
Hearing Caelan tell her to get up, the massive body of the Evil Miasma Demon Queen, Morrigan, began to slowly move. First, she lifted her head, which was like a huge rock, slightly, and then, like a mountain rising from the ground, her thick limbs supported her heavy body with great effort. Every movement she made carried a sense of dull power, accompanied by a low rumbling sound, as if the earth were trembling slightly. Just by standing in front of Caelan, she made him feel an extreme sense of oppression as if an insurmountable high wall was in front of him. The invisible pressure came surging like a tide, making Caelan feel a little short of breath.
No wonder, she could fit twenty cages dedicated to holding demons on her body.
But before Caelan could give the Evil Miasma Demon Queen new battle orders, the bloated and terrifying monster spoke first. Her voice, like a bell, echoed in the air. Her two eyes, glowing with a strange light, stared at Caelan intently. She bowed her head slightly and spoke in a careful and expectant tone,
“Well, great Abyssal Sovereign, would you be so kind as to grant a humble request?”
“Request?”
Caelan was momentarily taken aback, his delicate eyebrows creasing slightly as he thought quickly. However, he soon recovered, knowing the characteristics of the race heroes well.
The race heroes all had extremely high intelligence, and they were like individuals with independent thoughts. As creatures with divine wisdom, it was only natural for them to have all kinds of strange desires.
The heroes have different desires. Some may need mysterious equipment that has been tempered by the test of time; some may love peculiar foods that grow in specific environments; and some may simply desire a mountain of wealth.
Apart from these common desires, some race heroes may have strange desires. For example, some special male/female heroes will pursue their liege lords with burning passion, and their gaze seems to contain endless emotions, despite the huge gap between the two races...
But in short, as long as the lords successfully satisfy the demands of these heroes, then these heroes will often repay the lords in their own unique ways.
The key is that their loyalty can be increased!
[Note: Race heroes are different from soldiers in that they have a high degree of freedom. When their loyalty to their lord is not high, they may leave that lord to find a new place to live.]
Caelan looked up slightly, his gaze deep as he looked at Evil Miasma Demon Queen, and asked in a calm but commanding voice, “Yes, what is your request?”
Although he had already noticed that Evil Miasma Demon Queen's loyalty had been fixed at a permanent 100 due to the Dark Abyss, Caelan still wanted to know what kind of request Evil Miasma Demon Queen, the first race hero under his command, would have. This would also serve as a reference for the other race heroes that would follow.
But after hearing Morrigan's description, Caelan never imagined that the Evil Miasma Demon Queen's demands would be so strange...
And so easy to satisfy...
