Chapter 494: Northland Strategy

Until Antinoya brought Zhao Xu back to Arthur in the real world, he still had a dizzy feeling in his mind.

This time through thousands of years seems to be a small "accidental" event for him, but Zhao Xu has already roughly felt the tremor on his soul.

Even he wondered if he had left some fragments behind a thousand years before the fall of the gods and the cataclysm.

The possible directions of "losing memory", "assimilation of the world", and "merging into the imprint" made Zhao Xu realize that "crossing" is not just as once and for all as imagined.

It also made him re-examine the established fact that he could be "reborn".

A "secret" that he has not been able to figure out until now.

By the time they returned to the altar in the pit, the dark lord Grazt had fled.

The site was still filled with gunsmoke, and when Grazt left the factory, the black pus that it had brought with it was like a magma explosion had cooled and condensed all over the ground.

Perhaps the moment Zhao Xu resolutely turned around and greeted his "time divine power" head-on, this demon lord knew that his tricks had come to an end.

This also made Zhao Xu feel a little relieved.

At that time, Grazt appeared behind Zhao Xu, so stiff, which essentially explained one thing.

Unleashing the ability to travel through time has consumed all of its ability to act.

It couldn't even control this ability to only be launched against Antinoya, not against Zhao Xu.

At this time, Zhao Xu and Antinoya both carefully looked at the demon altar in front of them.

I have to say that after being brushed like this by Grazt, Antinoya herself was also angry with anger.

"So, I'm afraid it's pretty much the same as you guessed."

Antinoia looked at the bottom of the altar, a stone tablet engraved with purgatory, and said, "This altar is the lead to the summoning, and once successful, these summoned creatures will offer sacrifices to open the final portal." ”

"A portal from the abyss to Arthur's world is a hedonistic journey for demons, but it is the beginning of the pain of the entire Northland." Zhao Xu sighed.

Arthur has a lot of strong men, but this is for high-end combat power.

As for the adventurers and soldier armies of the entire Northland, as well as the local garrisons, they have to face the demon clans that are incomparably powerful by nature, from the Cowardly Demon and the Babu Demon to the Six-armed Snake Demon and the Balo Flame Demon.

Unless the entire Arthur helps, these low-end demon armies can't be killed at all, and the only thing that limits them is the amount of portals that can pass.

Moreover, these demons have been fighting against the demons on the side of hell on the battlefield of bloody battles, and they are also very experienced in combat.

"That's right."

Antinoya frowned slightly, "The point is, I'm afraid that Grazt has not many such backhands left in the Northern Alliance, even if the official forces intervene and plough the entire ground into three parts, it will be difficult to find all these altars hidden in underground pits." ”

"The army of hell and demons is ready to descend on Arthur." Zhao Xu made a silent prophecy.

The neat stone monuments, as well as the rough altars that do not look artificial, show that these altars were produced in bulk.

There must be a huge organization behind the scenes.

For Arthur, a disaster that is still painful to look back on many years later, a disaster that can kill all men from a small country in a certain year, is a ladder to the sky for some two devils, a recipe to save their lives.

Some things are just that cruel.

Zhao Xuming knew that Purgatory's hands had reached out to Arthur, but he couldn't uproot them, so he could only watch them spread like cancer cells.

At this time, Zhao Xu remembered that in the mutant scorpion nest before, in addition to the dowry of the "brass treasure chest" that he saw Antinoya, the ceiling of the nest was full of hanging corpses.

And these dangling corpses are exactly the same as those hidden in this underground pit.

Zhao Xu immediately talked about this past with Antinoria.

"That's it." Antinoya nodded, "The nephew of Tang De, who came to encircle and suppress you at that time, is probably the 'minions' stretched out by this force, but you cut it off at that time." ”

"And this matter, I'm afraid they don't want to attract the attention of the church, so they searched for it at the beginning, and then they couldn't see it anymore."

Zhao Xu thought about it for a while, and already understood what Antinoya meant.

The Devil and the Demon, during the Battle of the Demons, separated from each other to invade Arthur's Northland, is not an independent event at all, or it is a rare tacit understanding between hell and the abyss.

Even on the demonic side, it is not just the demonic lord Grazt who has ended.

There must be a "mysterious organization" in the entire Northland that is connected with the Abyss Demon Lords, and even Tang De is just a relatively obvious node in this dark web.

There are more than ten major forces in the Northern Alliance and even the entire Northland, and the coverage of this network is far beyond everyone's imagination.

Looking at Zhao Xu's heavy expression, Antinoya comforted, "The original Battle of Falling Star Lake was the first time you showed your sword to the northland, and at that time, you could only rely on the power of the outside world. ”

"As for now, if you want to be Arthur's most invincible sword, you must have the courage and courage to slowly open this behind-the-scenes net, and let him become the touchstone for you to become a legend."

"Otherwise, you really think that you can achieve legends by fighting monsters all the way, and the knowledge of killing spells accounts for a small part of the spell system, and all kinds of infiltration and control spells are waiting for you to develop and use."

Seeing the subtle Antinoya, after seeing this actual altar, with another incident provided by Zhao Xu, she had already guessed the intention of the abyss and hell.

After thinking about this clearly, Zhao Xu stood up on the spot, his eyes showing perseverance and anger.

The lack of food and clothing at the beginning of the previous life, as well as the subsequent battle of sealing demons, were the two disasters that caused the population of the entire earth to decline sharply.

Not even the earthlings, the innocent people of the entire Northland alone have suffered countless casualties.

Many once comfortable towns have become scorched earth, and some small towns have even become a paradise for demons, with human corpses hanging all over the outer walls, and corpses piled up into altars and towers to sacrifice to the lords.

Suddenly, Zhao Xu's heart tightened, as if an invisible force was grasping tightly.

His tone was indifferent, "Mentor, is it because the gathering place of the future earth crossing is the northern land north of the entire Ice Fields Mountain Range, so this possible disaster appeared here. ”

Antinoya looked at Zhao Xu with a soft gaze, "From the moment the first legendary mage strayed into the Earth Universe, there was a possibility that this plan would be implemented, and it even had to be traced back to the covenant between the gods after the end of the Cataclysm. ”

"And on the purgatory side, they will naturally be laid out because of this."

"Gods, prepare enough believers for yourselves for the 'Twilight War' in the future. In the same way, the Abyss and Hell also need to replenish the soul as a reserve. ”

"They will inevitably invade Arthur, and choosing the location where the earthlings are crossing is just a matter of maximizing profits."

"It's really uncomfortable to be treated like a pawn and a pig."

Zhao Xu couldn't help laughing, but his smile had a hint of something that was about to explode.

"Even though Arthur's main god can get rid of the restrictions of believers, they will still develop their own slaves and elects, and continue to expand the number of believers in Arthur."

"The harvest land is here, and if you don't cut this handful of wheat, there will naturally be someone else wielding a sickle in the harvest season. A stronger farmer also has the capital to annex others. ”

Antinoya points to the crux of the 10,000-year-old battle of faith.

"This is what he taught me, if I don't want to be a farmer who wields a scythe to harvest, and I don't want to be a farmer who has worked hard for a long time and has no harvest, then I should be a traveler and witness the ebb and flow of Arthur, the rise and fall of history."

"As long as I don't become a god, I won't be excluded from Arthur by the will of the world. I can wait for this world to come to an end with the strength of the pinnacle of the world. That's why I'm able to witness the appearance of a third goddess of magic like I do today. ”

"Mentor, the Seventeen Outer Interfaces also have a presence that can threaten you?" Zhao Xu couldn't help but be curious.

"That's for sure, but it's rarely, and some of the existence is already conceptually inexplicable. Until you can understand why this world came into being, you will never be able to guess how many of them are hidden in this world. Antinoa sighed.

"And what about you? What are your plans after verifying your identity in Oulu City and returning to Falling Star Town after getting the supplies? ”

Hearing this question, Zhao Xu replied angrily, "I didn't know it before." ”

"Since I know that Tang De is the key, and there is this kind of 'network' of secret help abyss all over them, then I naturally want to eradicate it."

Perhaps these betrayers of Arthur had their own reasons. They will say loudly that Arthur will definitely not be able to defeat the incomparably powerful forces of hell and abyss, and that they are essentially sacrificing some inferior clansmen for the sake of humanity and other races, in order to seek the continuation of the entire civilization. ”

"But I think they'd better go down to the abyss and tell the devil about that."
