Chapter 998: A True Strongman
The words of the disabled divine punishment samurai made everyone frown.
The enemy is fighting two wars at the same time, and the other side is their main battlefield?
If what the other party said was true, and the previous battles of divine will against humans were only a small part of the devil's power, then the situation, which was originally quite clear, suddenly became a little less optimistic.
Combined with the scene seen in the realm of gods, there are a total of four competitors in the huge painting, and aside from the underground civilization that has been removed, Roland speculates that the so-called "Tianhai Realm" is the last and most mysterious deep-sea eyeball painting.
Could it be that after the enemy seized the relics of the underground civilization, he fought with the monsters in the sea, and at the same time had the strength to suppress the humans of the Dawn Realm?
If this is the case, then the contempt for witches in the tone of the high-ranking devil is not unfounded.
As for ordinary people without magical powers, I'm afraid they are no different from the weeds on the side of the road.
Of course, he also knew that it was impossible for the other party to honestly confess everything he knew - from its insistence on entering the artillery position alone, to covering up its mind and using its psychic resonance ability to invade Zoe's body, it was obvious that even in a desperate situation, it did not let go of the slightest idea of attacking. In the absence of a way to discern a lie, it is difficult to guarantee that the other party is not deliberately bluffing, deliberately trying to cause panic in humanity.
Looking at the solemn faces, Roland knew that the situation had to be brought back into his control.
So he shrugged his shoulders and looked at Elfis with a pretended lightheartedness.
"So...... This is the real devil over here?"
The latter also reacted, "I don't know what method Zoe used, but I don't think she would say such a thing herself. 」
"Good job, saved me a nap," Roland nodded at Zoe, "Tonight's dream, you can eat whatever you want." ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty," Zoe couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth, but quickly returned to her normal expression, "It's a pity that this guy is already familiar with human perception, and although he can't flexibly control his limbs, it's hard to read his true thoughts in telepathic resonance." ”
"It's not your fault, after all, no one has ever had in-depth contact with high-level devils before, and it's normal for human beings to make mistakes based on their own experience. ”
"Devil, you still use this ridiculous name," said Kabradabi dismissively, "to classify all races that are different from oneself as horrible and evil beings, but not to know that you are an insignificant inferior barbarian. But this is the end of your good fortune, and the day the source of magic reappears will be your demise!"
Everyone couldn't help but glance at each other, and the last sentence really looked like something in a legend.
"The source of the magic you are talking about...... The Red Moon?" Roland asked.
"You can only see the superficial surface of everything, but it is the consistent style of your reptilian species. "The high-ranking devil is noncommittal.
"Could it be that the red orb is made of magic?" Agatha chimed in, "but it doesn't make sense, I've seen the red moon with my own eyes, and whatever it is, it's thousands of miles away from this world. You said before that the ultimate ascender would open the way to the source of magical power, is there a ladder that leads to the heavens?"
"Hmph. Kabradabi turned his head away, clearly not wanting to explain the problem.
"Where is the Heaven and Sea Realm?"
There was no response.
"You destroyed the underground civilization?"
Silent.
"Your new technology, I mean, the deformed species that can shoot out black stone pillars, is it a legacy from an underground civilization?"
"Save your effort, bug," Cabradabi finally spoke, "I've said everything I can, and I can't say it, even if I let this female come—" He glanced at Zoe and paused inexplicably, "I won't say anything more!
Obviously, the current interrogation has reached a bottleneck, but now that the high-level demons have been transferred to the body of the Divine Punishment Army, it also means that Neverwinter does not need to rush anymore. If you leave it at the disposal of the Taqira Witch, there will always be a way to make it spit out more over time.
Thinking of this, Roland spread his hands and said, "Since you don't want to talk about these sensitive matters, let's change the subject—if this war is just a trivial setback for you, then how strong are you? What about the army of the Heavenly Sea Realm? How about you? And the Lord of the Heavenly Dome you just mentioned, can he compete with the transcendental? I guess these questions have nothing to do with secrecy, right?"
A perfect opportunity to boast, according to the character of the other person, is unlikely to be able to hold back.
"Oh, worm......s," and sure enough, Kabradabi said in a loud voice, "I can only say, far more than you imagine! Do you know why you are reptiles? Because the gap between the ascending race and the ignorant race is like a bird and a worm, which is determined by the nature of magic." At the junction of the end of the continent and the Tianhai Realm, our army covers the sky and the sun, and its actions are enough to deter the mountains, if it weren't for the enemies of the Tianhai Realm being equally powerful, how could you survive until now!"
It paused, "As for the transcendent you are talking about, if you mean the strongest females, they have indeed been able to compete with the Maharaja before. But now the Lord of the Celestial Dome has advanced in his mastery of magic, and has the prudence and acumen of a commander, and in a battle like this, he can drain your blood alone! Worm, when you hear about its prestige, kneel down and beg for mercy - so that it can at least make you die a happy death!"
Roland automatically blocked the next series of exaggerated words, and he noticed a few hidden details - the devil's logistics can be said to be the biggest deficiency of this race, it is difficult to move an inch out of the red mist, if you want to support a large army with enough numbers, then you must fight within the influence of the black stone obe.
Being able to fight with the devil in the red mist, and even hold back the opponent's main force, means that the deep sea monster is probably not as simple as it says, and it is easy to bring it with the phrase "equally powerful", which undoubtedly means that it does not want to talk about it - this attitude itself is an expression.
In addition, it did not regard the enemies of the Heavenly Sea Realm as reptiles, which means that the deep-sea monsters have also been "upgraded". But there is only one competitor who has been eliminated at present, which obviously does not match the initial speculation. In retrospect, the other party really didn't make it clear that it was they who killed the eliminated civilization, and only mentioned that only the races that could go to the Tianhai Realm were eligible for inheritance, and there should be some unknown changes in this.
Seeing that the high-ranking devil was still boasting about the unparalleled strength of the race, Roland interrupted it directly.
"In fact, you don't understand what it means to be truly powerful. ”
"You-" Kabradabi grimaced, "Bug, what do you know?" ”
"The real strong man is not to make this world darker, but to use his own strength to dispel the fog. When the world is about to fall, they will not hesitate to burn their own souls to bring light and heat to all things...... It's like the sun. ”
"You...... What the hell are you trying to say?"
"It's easy," Roland cleared his throat, "since you're so powerful, why don't you spread the fire." ”
Leaving the devil with a dazed face, he straightened up and walked towards the exit of the main hall with the witch's head without looking back.
