Without the intention of persuasion, those high-ranking demons in the demon servant army of the Orchid Hill Empire carried their long swords into the temple.
Perhaps, 10,000 years ago, the ancestors of these demons, there were already people who hoped that one day they could do such a thing.
After more than 10,000 years of brutal oppression and enslavement, the demons have become accustomed to following the orders of the source of magic.
When they one day find that they can no longer obey the will of their magical origins, they become hysterical.
In the dark corridor leading to the temple, the demon defenders desperately held on to their defenses, and they could barely hold on for some time thanks to the narrowness of the passage.
But all of them knew that there was no hope for them. The hope that reinforcements would come in from outside and rescue them had long since been shattered over time.
At this time, no demon defender will be able to break through the outer defenses and kill to save the world.
Therefore, the demon defenders who were clinging to the temple of the origin of magic finally began to despair.
Another veteran of the demon defender fell, he was easily cut down by the other party, and the remaining demon defender soldiers had to take a few steps back, widening the distance between themselves and the high-level demon opposite.
"Thunder and lightning!" The high-level demon was obviously tired of slashing, and he stretched out his palm and used a high-level magic on the demon defenders in the corridor.
Blade-like lightning pierced through several demon defender soldiers, causing their corpses to fall to the ground blackened.
The demon defenders at the back crowded backwards in embarrassment, trying to get as far away as possible from such a powerful enemy.
Unfortunately, the people further behind blocked their way, as if they were human shields, and they could only stand there, waiting for the last moment of their lives.
Originally, the demon defenders who could be stationed in the temple were the most devout believers in the origin of magic, and their will was strong, and their combat effectiveness was stronger.
But as the battle progressed, their will had been shattered, and their courage had been exhausted.
At this moment, they no longer have the original madness and bravery, and all that remains is a little desire to survive.
On the other side, the corpse next to the door was removed, and the soldiers of the Irlanhill Empire cautiously pushed the door open, and then saw a spectacular scene.
This is the end of another corridor, and the defenders here are relatively small, so the soldiers of the Ellan Hill Empire can easily eliminate these demon garrisons stationed here.
Compared to the demon defenders stationed on the other side, the garrison here is more like some monks, or attendants.
Their combat effectiveness can only be said to be average, and it should only be a temporary patchwork of arms to make up a number. In fact, these people are the attendants in this hall, and they are the minions who are responsible for doing chores on weekdays.
A dozen high-level demons didn't make much effort to kill this place, and then they didn't dare to open the closed gates, so they could only call the humans behind them and let those heavy armored grenadiers take over the place. 61 Library
Now, these heavy armored grenadiers who have opened the door finally know how huge a powerful super empire that dominates the demon world is.
When the door was opened, they were filled with gold! Yes, it's so vulgar, it's so shocking!
There was gold all over the room, but it wasn't just gold! It would be more accurate to describe it as a densely packed stack of countless shelves with neat gold plates cast in gold.
Each square gold plate made of gold is engraved with demonic characters—these words record everything that has happened in the demon world for more than 10,000 years!
This is the Great Library of the Origin of Magic! In order to preserve that knowledge for a long time, the Origin of Magic has forged these books of pure gold!
He hoped that his exploits, or a series of great things he had done in the Demon Realm for 10,000 years, could be preserved forever!
So, he built it and cast hundreds of gold tablets every year to record what happened that year.
"I'm X......" One of Ellenhill's heavily armored grenadiers swallowed a mouthful of saliva, looking at the pure gold library in front of him that shimmered in the firelight, and couldn't help but burst into a foul mouth.
"Oh my God...... No wonder we rarely see anything of value along the way. The captain of the team craned his neck and couldn't help but sigh as he looked at the brilliant gems set in the dome to increase the brightness of the magic lamps here.
Naturally, the magic lamp is no longer lit, but under the background of the torches, this ceiling is still gorgeous to the point of jaw-dropping.
For 10,000 years, the demons have basically implemented a militarized social management model, and their economy has long since collapsed, so there is little economic activity.
There is more barter between demons, and little or no money is used!
But everyone knows that there are mines in the Demon Realm, and there are also gold and silver here, as well as other precious metals - all the way from Angshire to Withorlands, everyone is curious about where all those precious metals have gone.
Now, seeing the pure gold library in front of them, which was no less in scale than the vaults of the Imperial Reserve Bureau of the Irlanhill Empire, everyone seemed to understand something.
"Look good here! These things may ...... It may be useful. The leading officer stared at the glittering golden books, his heart full of struggle.
Of course, it works, even if it is thrown into the furnace and melted, it is definitely a "useful" thing. What's more, the content recorded in the text above has a very important role in understanding the entire demon world.
On the other side, the battle continued, one demon defender after another soldiers were killed, and the floor of the corridor was littered with corpses.
But the defenders were still stuck in the road, because they knew that once such a narrow line of defense was abandoned and the terrain was open, they would only die faster.
It's a pity that they desperately resisted in the corridor in the basement, and the demons upstairs didn't have such good luck.
They were soon stormed up the staircase and divided into several rooms and halls. And above their heads, the huge Eagle Banner of the Ranhill Empire has been spread on the rooftops.
In the distance, the demons who were still clinging to the ruins saw this flag, and one by one they seemed to have lost their souls, and their faces were full of panic......
