Chapter 31: The Terrorist Attack of the Scourge Regiment
For the distrust of others, Asacher plucked his ears in boredom, "Tsk. I thought you were supposed to be a little better than the gods and the previous demon kings, but it turned out to be a bunch of troublesome guys. It doesn't suit my personality to continue to study on the ground. Okay, I seeβor we'll make a peace. That's what you mean anyway, right? Angels and demons on both sides? β
Peace. That is, to pursue peace together. Asacher's speech stunned all camps.
It's not that I don't agree, but I didn't expect this guy to mention yì like this.
Michael, who was originally frightened by Asacher's words, smiled, "Yes, the Demon Side and I originally planned to make peace with the 'Divine Son Monitor'. If the tripartite relationship of checks and balances continues, it will only be harmful to the world today. As an archangel, I don't seem to be the right person to say thatβbut the root of the war, the gods and the demon kings, are gone. β
Assachher couldn't help but laugh when he heard Mr. Michael's words.
"Hah! That brainless Michael-sama would say such a thing. In the past, God was on his lips at every turn. β
"Our losses are significant. But it's not the way to keep chasing what is no longer there. Our mission is to guide humanity, and we will continue to care for and lead God's people in the future, and that is the most important thing. Our members of the Seraphs agree with each other. β
"Hey, you're going to 'fall' if you say that, right? But β having said that, now the 'system' is your inheritance. It's a wonderful world, very different from when we 'fell'. β
Sazex makes the same point: "So do we. In order for the race to survive in the absence of the Demon King, the Demon must also move forward. We don't want war eitherβif it breaks out again, the devil will perish. β
"That's right. War breaks out again, and the three major forces will be wiped out together this time. And then it will also have a heavy impact on the human world, causing the world to perish. We can no longer wage war. β
Asacher's expression, which was originally frivolous, suddenly became serious: "Do you think that the world without gods is wrong?" Do you think the world without God will decline? Unfortunately, this is not the case. You and I live like this. β
He spread his hands: "Even without God, the world will continue to function." β
Everyone can feel it, too. Even without God, no one else's life has changed much.
The tense atmosphere has eased, and all the forces present here have already expressed their desire for peace. After that, the topic of the meeting shifted to confirming the current strength, how to deal with each faction, and the future map of power.
"-So, that's pretty much it, right?"
As soon as Sazex said this, everyone else let out a breath one after another.
After drinking the tea from Grufia, Rarity's throat was over, and Asacher suddenly said to Yang Xi, "If there were only us forces in this world, then today's meeting should be over here." However, everyone knows very well that there are still some mavericks in this world, but they have powerful beings that are powerful enough to affect the balance of various forces - dragons! Next, can we listen to the meaning of the 'two heavenly dragons' who are also present? β
Speaking of this, Michael's gaze also directly skipped over Wally, who was leaning against the wall behind Assacher, and placed it on Yang Xi. Compared to the white dragon, who knew that it was difficult to communicate at a glance, it was easier to talk to the red dragon who had dealt with him.
"Mr. Red Dragon Emperor, can I listen to your opinion first?"
"Peace is relative, and even if angels, fallen angels, and demons work together, there is no guarantee that they will not be harassed by other forces and cause war. So it's too early to talk about peace, but I'm not against peace or something. β
"Alright. Now that the Red Dragon Emperor has expressed his opinion, what about Wally, you? As the White Dragon Emperor, you can also share your thoughts. β
Asacher turned to the figure standing behind him.
Regarding Asacher's question, the White Dragon Emperor Wally smiled and said, "I just need to be able to fight the strong." β
"Huh. Even in times of peace, there will be no shortage of strong men in this world. β
"That's just as well."
Wally nodded, not disagreeing.
Just then, a strange feeling struck.
This is time stop!
Yang Xi, who had subordinates with the same ability, immediately noticed something unusual. Sure enough. The room was stopped, except for a few big names.
Lias's ability was originally not enough to protect herself, but because she had been holding Yang Xi's hand. This encounter was avoided.
Among Lias's dependents, only Yuto Kiba can still move. However, she already held the Holy Demon Sword that was emitting a soft light in her hand, thinking about it, it should have reached the forbidden hand realm and had a special Holy Demon Sword, so it was fine.
Suddenly, a series of explosions came from outside, and holding Lias's hand, Yang Xi walked to the window and looked out. I saw that a teleportation magic array appeared outside the campus, which was originally closed by the enchantment and should not be able to enter and exit. From those magic arrays, humans in black robes continue to appear, launching fierce attacks similar to magic bullets against angels, fallen angels, and demon legions that have been stopped in time. Although their attacks did not do much damage to these high-ranking elites, they could not hold up the number of them, and from time to time they could see casualties among the soldiers of the three sides.
"This is a terrorist attack!"
"Someone is attacking us. In any era, whenever a peace agreement is being concluded between forces, there will be people who are disgusted with this situation and will try to hinder it. β
Asacher walked up to Yang Xi with an arrogant smile on his face, "Those are the so-called magic envoys. The so-called magic, magic and other things, is the legendary magician 'Merlin. Ambrosius' has made his own interpretation and reconstruction of the demonic power system, and according to the magic power they emit, each of them has the magic power of the intermediate demon level. β
The hierarchy of angels, fallen angels, and demons is relative to that of humans, from low to high, the lower-level demons probably have the strength below the C-level, the middle-level demons are below the A-level, and the higher-level demons already have the strength of the S-level, the highest level of the demon SS-level, and above the top-level, it is the SSS level that has reached the realm of the gods.
Other words. Although there are a lot of these magic messengers, if it weren't for the time of the three soldiers being stopped, they could only be attacked at will, and they could all be wiped out in a matter of minutes.
"Time has stopped, and I think it's probably an artifact that can transfer power or magic to forcibly elevate that hybrid vampire kid's artifact to a forbidden state. Even though it's only a temporary ban, the effect can be extended to the people inside the building, and it seems that the potential of the hybrid vampire is really strong. But the power doesn't seem to be strong enough for even a few of us leaders to stand still. β
Asachel's words made Lias furious, "Gaspar in the old school building has become a weapon for the terrorists, where the hell did they get information about my servant, and they are still waiting for an opportunity to disrupt the attack of important talks! What a shame! β
"By the way, the army of fallen angels, angels, and demons surrounding this school building seems to have all stopped. Alas, Lias. Gimonri's family is truly terrifying. β
Asacher sighed. Raise your hand to the window.
Countless spears of light appeared in the sky outside, and the moment Asacher waved his hand downward, the spears of light rained down like drops. Although those magic envoys all unfolded their protective shields in time, it was a pity that under the huge power gap, there was not even scum left in an instant.
"This school is surrounded by enchantments. Despite this, these guys still appear in the enchantment, which means that someone is connecting to the transfer magic circle and portal outside the school ground. In any case, if the effect of 'Stop the World's MONOCULUS' continues to increase. Maybe some of us will be stopped. They're probably trying to keep us here with this onslaught, and we'll be buried with the school building once our time is suspended. The other side seems to have sent a lot of troops over. β
In front of Asacher's line of sight, magic arrays appeared all over the playground, emitting an eerie glow. A group of magicians dressed as if he had just solved them appeared from the magic circle again.
"I've been repeating this situation since I started. No matter how many people we knock down, it will appear. However, whether it is the timing or the way of the terrorist attack, it can be seen that there should be a guy among the enemy who knows our inside story in detail. Can't we have traitors among us? β
Asacher looked helpless, although his strength was strong, it was not to be wasted on these minions.
"But there's no way to go on like this. Can't you get away from here? β
Lias couldn't help but ask.
Asacher shook his head: "If we don't unravel the barrier that envelops the entire school, we won't be able to get out." But unlocking the enchantment is likely to be dangerous for the human world. I'm waiting for the other party's boss to show up. Stick here for a while, maybe the other party won't be able to hold back and show his face. I really want to know who is behind it sooner. And if you kill it casually, make a big fuss. Instead, it plays into the hands of the enemy. β
"As he said, we can't act during the investigation. However, the primary aim now is to get Gaspar back from the old school building that had become a stronghold for terrorists. β
Sazex also spoke, and Lias immediately understood what she was supposed to do.
"Brother, let me go. Gaspar is my servant. I'll take care of getting him back. β
Lias said with a strong will in her eyes.
"I knew you would say that. I still know my sister's personality. But - how are you going to get to the old schoolhouse? There is a large group of mages outside the new school building, and normal transfer spells will be destroyed during the transfer. β
"There are still unused chess pieces 'chariots' in the old school building, which I used as a base."
"I see, 'castling'? They should think we're going to snatch back Gaspar in the usual way, and this should be a surprise and get a head start. β
Castling is a technique that allows you to instantly swap positions between the "king" and the "chariot". It is one of the special moves in ranked games.
"Good. But it's too reckless for you to go alone. Grufia, I can use the 'King Chariot Translocation' to transfer several people through my magical means, right? β
"Well, it seems that only simple techniques can be carried out here, but in addition to the eldest lady, it should be possible to transfer another one together."
"So Lias, who are you with?"
Without waiting for Sazex to finish speaking, Yang Xi raised the hands that the two were still holding and shook them, "Hasn't the candidate already been decided?" β
"Hehe, that's right, my sister's safety will be handed over to you!"
"Don't worry, big brother."
Hearing Yang Xi's title, Sazex was slightly stunned, then laughed out loud, and said three times in a row, "Okay!" βγ He had long wanted to hear Yang Xi call himself like this, and now that he got his wish, what could be more joyful than this?
Lias, of course, understood why her brother was so happy, and bowed her head with a red face.
While Yang Xi was about to teleport the magic, Asachel also instructed Wally to go outside to attract the other party's attention.
Since the other party dared to attack, there was no reason not to know about the existence of the Second Heavenly Dragon, and the appearance of the White Dragon Emperor would not only attract firepower, but also divert the attention of the other party, allowing Yang Xi, the Red Dragon Emperor, to rescue the accused Gaspar.
Wally's hand-barred flew out of the conference room window, destroying the manories in just a split second, but the next batch continued to appear, and it was annoying.
However, the other party also knew that even if they used crowd tactics, it was pointless, so the number of each batch was very consistent, and their purpose was simply to delay time, so that Gaspar's power could be increased to a stronger level, and he could stop the Cheng DΓΉ of the leaders of the three forces. When the time comes, they will be able to serve them without much effort.
"Asacher, continue the conversation just now." Michael asked suddenly.
"Oh, what's wrong?"
"What exactly do you want to do when you collect artifacts? I've heard you've even found a few wielders of the 'God Exterminator'? God is gone, do you still want to do some god-killing action? β
Hearing this, Asacher shook his head and said, "It's called being prepared. β
"Prepared? You have just denied war, and now you are saying such unsettling words. β
Michael felt overwhelmed.
"Didn't I say that? I will not fight with you, nor will I provoke a war myself, but - still need the means of self-defense. But this isn't a defense against your attack, is it? β
"Or else?"
"β'The Scourge of Evil'."
"The Scourge of Scourge?"
Michael, who had heard the term for the first time, frowned.
"The name and background of the organization are actually only recently known, but our Lieutenant Governor Shemhasa has been eyeing the suspicious group before. They gathered dangerous elements from the three major forces, including the artifact holders who had reached the forbidden realm. It has also been confirmed that several of them are humans with 'God Destroyers'. β
"What is their purpose?" Michael asked.
"Destruction and chaos. Pretty simple, right? They are not used to the peace of this world - they are a bunch of terrorists. And it's terrible to the extreme. β
"So maybe they're the ones who attacked this time?"
"And the leaders of the organization are other dragons who are more powerful and vicious than the 'Red Dragon' and the 'White Dragon'." (To be continued......)
