Chapter 52 Tieflings (Part Six)
Suddenly, a child's scream came from the camp entrance.
The Tieflings quickly turo look.
"Hey yo, hey yo, hey yo..."
Several strong, powerful ogres, ting rhythmically, carried thick logs as they walked into the camp, with the Tiefling guards at the entra daring to stop them.
"Form up—"
Then, a formation of over thirty half-dragon hobgoblins appeared at the entrance of the “Ruined Home,” marg in an orderly line, preparing to station themselves in the camp.
Hundreds on-blooded kobolds followed closely behind. They were natural diggers and builders and would bee the main for strug this town.
"Roar—"
An aral dragon roared wildly in the sky, burning any invadiis to ashes with its fmes.
"My god, ogres have bee our allies."
"Those kobolds better not steal our stuff..."
"Is that a dragon?"
"We're going to work alongside these monsters from now on."
The Tiefling refugees had mixed feelings toward the strange "reinforts" arriving to support them, some joyful, some fearful, others anxious or surprised.
But ohing was certain
—They couldn’t stop these monsters from entering.
Faced with such a grand se, even the always posed Medrosh couldn’t help but be stunned, and he said:
"My lord, this was not a spur-of-the-moment decision."
"This… was also part of your pn, wasn’t it?"
Cassius looked down at his arriving followers and exhaled a breath of sulfurous heat:
"I told you long ago, you have naining power."
Medrosh shook his head with a bitter smile:
"My lord, you truly don’t seem like a typical red dragon. If it weren’t for your immerength, I’d almost suspect… you’re a green dragon who enjoys maniputing situations."
Cassius simply said, "That’s why you’re alive, standing here, and not turo ash for speaking such words."
"Thank you for your extraordinary mercy."
Realizing he had overstepped, Medrosh quickly nodded in apology.
Cassius didn’t mind, merely saying, "Take me to your cavern. I’m ied iain things inside."
"Yes, my lord."
This time, Medrosh said nothing further, silently leading the way.
Deep within the camp’s cavern, Cassius finally saw what he was looking for.
—An aeleportation array.
Purple runes appeared on the rock walls, their patterns chaotic yet exuding a sense of order that reached into the soul.
This was yers in past lives called a “respawn point,” which tless mages had studied yet couldn’t determine how these formations, devoid of magical energy fluctuations, brought forth the "Falling Stars."
And the aeleportation array in the “Ruined Home” was the initial spawn point for pyers.
Medrosh said, "My lord, five norance. Even the most learned among us ot dis the purpose of these a runes."
Cassius said, "You’ll uand iime."
"Guard this pce well. No one must discover or damage it."
Medrosh replied solemnly, "I will obey your and."
Cassius seemed to remember something and asked, "That tract, is it still in your possession?"
The tra question was the pact Duke La signed with a dark entity, exging a thousand lives to create vampires.
Medrosh had risked his life to retrieve it during his iigation of a disappearance case, which led to the sughter of his entire family.
At this question, Medrosh nodded heavily, recalling the horrors of that tragedy.
It was more than a tract; it was evidence of a crime.
Evideained in blood.
Cassius spoke in a tohat brooked no refusal, "In three days, bring the tract to the Ember ."
The Tiefling padiuro take his leave, going to coordihe Tieflings in building the town.
Cassius narrowed his eyes, iing Medrosh’s information.
The padin’s "Divine Sense" detected the red dragon’s scrutiny, but he pretended nothing was amiss, showing ion.

Evaluation: When the crimson curtain falls, the padin shatters all his oaths, embarking on a final rebellion.
"Of all the Ember followers, perhaps only Langpu surpasses him."
This was Cassius's assessment.
In his view, Medrosh’s stalemate with the giai urely because he was o the Oathbreaker path, unfamiliar with his abilities.
Once he mastered his spells and abilities, sying the giai would be no problem.
Padins were also a popur css in past lives, bang melee and magic, often niamed "Holy Daddy."
Although the strength of 【Oathbreaker】 didn’t rival popur csses like 【Oath of Vengeance】 or 【Oath of quest】, it was still formidable.
"What I need are pyers..."
Cassius looked forward to these beings known as the "Fourth Camity," a terrifying force if used well.
And the first wave of beta pyers would appear at the aeleportation array in the “Ruined Home.” Many would go on to bee legendary figures.
Cassius took to the skies, overlooking the still-crude “Ruined Home.”
Ogres pnted logs into the ground as pilrs, setting up the framework of the buildings, while kobolds scurried about, hammering and fitting parts together. Meanwhile, some Tieflings stood by awkwardly, unsure how to help.
Further away, hobgoblins had begun ying roads to ect the area to the Giant’s Valley, though progress was slow due to the snow.
The future Baator City would rise here, buildings springing up, being a hub for the Falling Stars—the pyers’ first “main city.”
