Chapter 186: The Final Trial
Impreus's reckless behavior triggered a series of chain reactions, and the already numerically inferior angels made matters worse.
The Archangel of Justice Tyrell and the Archangel of Destiny Isharel had to go out with their descendants, forcibly suppressing the peak of the demon army on the lightless rift not far from the high-level heaven at any cost.
In this battle, the Angel Legion of Destiny and the Angel Legion of Justice suffered heavy losses, and the personal appearance of the demon god Diablo almost destroyed the courage of those lower angels to continue fighting,
With the Angel of Courage Imprith mortally wounded, Tyrell and Iseriel had to lead the legion back and forth, eventually draining the demon army's infernal power supply before they halted their attack.
Emergency human reinforcements arrived in time to help the Angel Legion hold its ground, but that was about it.
The forces of hell, which occupy most of the eternal battlefield, are now consolidating their defenses, intending to completely drive the angels' forces on the eternal battlefield to the corner of the battlefield.
The news brought by Hodge stunned the legendary powerhouses and Xue Hua.
Although from the Council's point of view, it is more in the interests of humanity for angels and demons to bite dogs, if the High Heavens are indeed destroyed, then it is very likely that the humans of the First World will usher in a second Hell invasion of unprecedented scale.
When the time comes, the Seven Demon Lords, who have completely eliminated the concerns in the rear, will be able to free up their hands to launch a full-scale attack on the Sanctuary World, and the consequences are obviously not something that the human race, which is still weak, can bear.
In desperation, the Council of the Demon Fortress had no choice but to issue a series of summons, wanting the Demon Slayer Legion and the Council Guard Legion to quickly return to the Second World for supply and defense, so that the front line would have more spare forces to reinforce the Angel Legion on the eternal battlefield.
And there's an even more important issue here.
That is, why did the two demon gods of hell, who have always been endless, and infighting, suddenly join forces to make a sophisticated plan to raid the angels on the eternal battlefield?
Was this joint plan an accidental act of the two demon gods, Mephisto and Diablo, or was there an agreement between the Seven Demon Lords of Hell to join forces to deal with the High Heavens first?
If it's the former, then there's room for redemption, and the demons of hell, who represent chaos and evil, will never last forever even if they occasionally join forces.
When the alliance between the two demon gods is shattered (something that is undoubtedly a sure thing), the alliance of angels and humans will naturally be able to push the battle line back on the side of Chaos Hell, and even retake the Chaos Fortress is not for nothing.
But if it's the latter, then the severity of the matter is a big deal.
This means that the High Heavens and humanity are about to face an unprecedentedly united infernal force.
Once the Seven Demon Lords of Hell had truly formed a complete alliance, it would be difficult for the High Heaven and the Demon Fortress Council to completely break through the Diamond Gate, even if the High Heaven and the Demon Fortress Council had done their best.
In order to better formulate a strategic plan for the future, this is something that must be investigated, and the Council of the Demon Fortress and the Council of Anglis have sent their own people to Hell to find out.
"What we have to do at the moment is to quickly train the Culast Seaport, and then lead the legion back to the Second World to change the defense, so as to give more space to the reinforcement plan on the front line, fortunately, in the series of wars we have just experienced, due to Xue Hua's excellent performance, the plan of hell has not been perfectly implemented.
The portal to the Chaos Realm is still under the control of the angels, and our legions can also go through that portal to reinforce the Eternal Battlefield, if it is a few days later, wait until Diablo launches a second wave of offensive on the front line of the Eternal Battlefield, then the portal to the Chaos Realm is likely to be completely sealed, and once things develop to that point, we can only be forced to take the initiative to attack in the second world to help the angels contain the demon army. ”
Hodge told Xue Hua and the others all the information he knew in one go, and there was a deep haze between his eyebrows, and his eyes that had always been calm and wise were also full of worry.
"Okay, so what do we do next? How can I help you? Farah turned his head to look at Drogenam, and neither of them looked very good.
No one expected that they had just thought that they had successfully thwarted a conspiracy of the Hell Demon Gods, but it was only a small operation to cover for a really bigger conspiracy.
"Alas... Now that the trial on the side of the Demon Fortress has definitely stopped, Xue, I'm afraid you won't be able to go to the Void Realm to accept your final trial for the time being. ”
Hodge first sighed, and then said to Xue Hua in a tone of some happiness and some regret.
"The realm of nothingness? The final trial? What are these? ”
Xue Hua blinked, looking at the legendary paladin with a blank face, he had never heard of these terms in the games of his previous life, so naturally he didn't understand what this meant at all.
"The Void is a testing ground carved out of Heaven, and the environment inside is similar to that of the Eternal Battlefield, where the angels simulate the environment and scenes of Hell as a final test to the World Stone Fortress of Arret's Sacred Mountain.
The Demon Fortress Fortress is also established in the realm of nothingness, and the so-called final trial is a series of tests and tests carried out by the high-level leaders of the Demon Fortress Fortress in order to select truly outstanding talents.
All Professionals must pass this level in order to reach the final stop of the First World, Harogas. ”
Looking at Xue Hua's blank expression, Farah who was following him sighed helplessly, and then explained to him seriously.
"What? Is it a trial over there in the Demon Fortress? It's not that Diablo was sealed in the end... Uh, nothing... Ahem......"
Hearing Farah's explanation, Xue Hua's eyes widened and he was stunned.
In the previous game, Diablo was supposed to be summoned and sealed in a scene map "Chaos Sanctuary" in the fourth act of the game, the Fortress of the Demons, and was preceded by the quest to kill the fallen archangel Epsil and destroy the Mephisto Soul Stone.
The Mephisto Soul Stone should explode in the game after the player kills the Mephisto in the Act 3 Hate Prison, and then the player will need to take it to the "Hell" where the Demon Fortress is located, and use the Hell Forge to completely destroy the Docker's soul stone.
In other words, the fourth act in the original game, the Demon Fortress, was the place where players exiled two demon gods at once, and Xue Hua had been thinking about how those professionals who had just reached more than forty levels could successfully come back alive when they ran to the Demon Fortress!
After doing it for a long time, in this world, the location of the demon fortress is not hell at all, but what is the so-called "realm of nothingness"?
And what about the final trial? Is it also the destruction of Mephisto's soul stone and the killing of the big pineapple?
But he didn't pick up any hellish soul stones?
How can I break a quest item if it doesn't drop?
Does he have to go back and brush the model worker?
