In the end, Lin Yuedong and Li Qinglan decided to give this information to the Holy Maiden and Pan.

"Otherworldly darkness?"

The saint repeated the word with some confusion, "What is that?" ”

"It's hard to describe a thing that is deadly to both elves and humans, enough to destroy the existence of a world." Lin Yuedong replied. The description of the darkness of the other world in the original work is also vague, and it is not clear what it is, but it is roughly described as something extremely dark, and there are a large number of angels hidden in it.

- That's right, angels, the winged kind.

Lin Yuedong's impression of angels is basically God's lackeys, Li Qinglan has more contact, and knows that the angels that exist in reality are some warriors created by God to help him manage the world.

But basically, angels represent order and goodness, and unless they are depraved, they can't have anything to do with the world-destroying thing like the Otherworldly Darkness.

But the banner of the Demon King Army is indeed an angel, the true face of the darkness of the other world in the original work, which makes the two unpredictable from the beginning, and they can't figure out the truth of the biggest mystery in the original work.

"Destroy the world? Can't the five elven kings deal with it? The saint asked.

"Neither can they. This kind of otherworldly darkness is very terrifying, and it is estimated that no one in this world should be able to stop it - probably Esther can deal with it. Lin Yuedong remembered the plot in the original work in which the protagonist used Esther to relieve the five elf kings and Yulia and others.

The protagonist of the original work used Esther to stab into the bodies of two elf kings who were eroded by the darkness of the other world, and the body of an elf who was swallowed by the darkness of the other world, but Esther didn't have any problems at all, maybe he was a little resistant.

"Do you know much about this otherworldly darkness? Why do you know that Esther can deal with it? The saint asked keenly.

"I can't talk about understanding, and if I really understand, I won't look forward or backward at this time." Lin Yuedong smiled bitterly, "Our intelligence source, Her Highness the Holy Maiden, don't inquire, what needs to be considered at present is Solomon's true purpose." If he had conquered the world only to summon the darkness of the Otherworld, then his retreat at this time would be very worrying. ”

"Is he really planning to destroy the world?" The saint frowned. They used to propagate that Solomon was doing all kinds of evil to destroy the world, but that was just a propaganda method, in fact, the high-level leaders of the coalition army still generally believed that Solomon just wanted to dominate the world, and Lin Yuedong proposed this possibility, which was really a bit unexpected by her.

"Judging from what the Demon King Army has done, I'm afraid it's not impossible." Li Qinglan said, "The Demon King Army does not produce, and blindly expropriates and expands outward, which is not like the style of agricultural civilization. ”

This continent is a typical agricultural civilization, there is no nomadic civilization, everyone lives by farming. Agrarian civilization rarely gives birth to a strange country like the Demon King Army, which only cares about robbery and plunder, but does not care about sustainable development.

Even if the Japanese invaded back then, it was still a lot of industry and commerce in the occupied areas, and it was not a complete three-light policy.

There are basically only nomads who pay so little attention to sustainable development and only care about burning, killing and looting, such as Mengyuan. Solomon came from the middle of the continent, and ruled over an agrarian civilization, not a nomadic background, how could it become such a country?

The only possible explanation is that he did not intend to maintain peace for a long time, but was ready to get a vote and leave, and as a result, he cultivated such an army.

"Then if he really just came to summon the Otherworldly Darkness...... As far as I know, summoning magic often requires considerable preparation, especially the summoning to the third world, I am afraid that it will consume a lot of various materials and divine power, and I don't know if it requires some rare materials that are hard to find. Could it be that he started the war just to grab the corresponding materials? The saint guessed.

"It's a possibility, or maybe he needs something else, for example, he needs a large enough space for him to set up a big enough circle." Li Qinglan said, "In short, in any case, the war of conquest may not be his goal, but a means to achieve his end. ”

The saint was a little clear: "In this case, he is now retreating so simply, that is, ...... He's ready to go? ”

Lin Yuedong and Li Qinglan nodded in unison, that's what they thought.

For some reason, Solomon needed a large area of land under his control, so he started a war, and after he had enough territory, he shrank in Zohar and slowly tossed around, and did not continue to expand. Now that he had accomplished his purpose and no longer needed these lands, he retreated decisively, trading space for time. This makes perfect logical sense.

Although the two have no evidence to confirm this, it is not unlikely.

In this case, in order to avoid the darkness of the other world, the coalition forces may have to fight quickly.

On the other hand, if what Solomon needs is the land itself, then the coalition forces will have to fight slowly and remove the traces left by the Demon King's army little by little, so as to destroy Solomon's plan.

Maybe Solomon didn't plan to summon the Otherworldly Darkness at all, everything was just a misunderstanding between Lin Yuedong and Li Qinglan, so the decisions that the coalition forces should make were different.

Unable to figure out this, Lin Yuedong and Li Qinglan really didn't dare to speak easily and guide the actions of the coalition forces.

In fact, they still have a concern, that is, if they can't let the darkness of the other world come at this time, the main contradiction in this world will be after a thousand years, maybe the plot will change after a thousand years, and then they will lose the advantage of being familiar with the plot, and it will be even more difficult to get it.

But it is also possible that the darkness of the other world in the history of the plot was not made, and there was another reason why the five elf kings were recruited?

Or if the coalition forces rush over to stop it at this moment, they can let the darkness of the other world only descend on the elven realm, and if it is not stopped, the darkness of the other world will erode the human realm together?

With so many possibilities, where would two people dare to act rashly?

"So you have such concerns...... the holy woman thought for a moment, "we have captured a lot of captives of the Demon King Army before, so we can try to interrogate this situation." In addition, we can also send more people to Zoharja to investigate. ”

"It's hard. It is impossible for those ordinary soldiers to know such secrets, and it is probably not easy to find out. Lin Yuedong didn't hold out much hope.

"Shall we not move, then?" The saint said with some dissatisfaction. The soldiers are fast, and it is not a good thing for a group of people to consume military rations here.

"Wherever the way of using soldiers, the plan is the first. When there is no war, the wise and foolish generals, the strength and weakness of the enemy, the outnumbered soldiers, the danger of the land, and the reality of the grain. The calculation has been reviewed, and then the troops are dispatched, and everything is invincible. Li Qinglan recited a passage of Liu Bowen's "Hundred Battles and Strategies", "Plan and then act, even if we don't know the specific situation of Zohar now, no matter how we move, it may be dangerous, but at least we should find a way with the least risk." ”
