Chapter 316: Vengeful Soul
As an ancient underground creature, the existence of demons is longer than the history of humans. However, no one knows what they survived by feeding on humans before this.
As a member of the evil camp, the demons are of course fond of infighting, they always hunt humans alone, strictly divide their sphere of influence, and rarely get together except for mating, let alone have any family, love or racial views.
However, as a high-level intelligent creature, there will still be aliens among the ghosts, such as two ghosts of different genders appeared fifteen years ago.
Unlike their compatriots, these two demons, who were supposed to live only for eating, hunting, and breeding, developed a relationship, and they even began to dream of forming their own families like humans.
The man said, why don't we take a human name and find a human town to live in, as long as we don't feed on humans, we won't be discovered.
And the woman also smiled and replied to him, okay, but what if he was still discovered by humans?
Then the man continued, "Why don't we build a kingdom of all our kind, like humans, so that we don't have to worry about being discovered!"
One of them gave himself the name of a human man, Tucker, and the other demon Heliana.
That was fifteen years ago.
Now the woman is leading Stannis to destroy all of the man's dreams.
"Why are you on the side of us humans as a demon?" Stannis couldn't help but ask curiously, although he thought that humans were righteous and born with the law of cause and effect to win, but as a villain, the demon actually betrayed his own people, which made him unable to figure it out anyway.
Hyliana was silent for a while, then said casually, "Do you know what your greatest human weakness is?"
Stannis shrugged his shoulders and said he was willing to listen.
"As the youngest sons of God, you are so arrogant that you always think that the world should revolve around you. ”
"Isn't it the right thing to do, natural selection, survival of the fittest?" Stannis felt that there was nothing wrong with that.
"This is the age of mankind, I have no objection, but why don't you give other races a little room to live, can't we coexist peacefully?" is what Tucker has been saying before he has abandoned all ideals, he should be a politician rather than an engineer who creates a murder trap.
Stannis scratched his head, this proposition is too huge, it has risen to the level of humanities and society, and it has been discussed and talked about in this world. In such a short period of time, it was difficult for him to calm down and find arguments to refute her views.
"I can't help it, human beings are so capable of life, and the more people there are, the more land they need, and the more resources they need, is it a matter of course! Besides, you monsters who feed on us have the face to accuse us! Could it be that you want to say that your existence was sent by nature to control our numbers?"
Hyliana shook her head, she still thought that this guy could be any different, but the words that came out of her mouth were the same as countless reasons for wanting to hunt them humans, why could humans hunt other creatures without changing their faces, but at the same time feel unfair about what happened to them, isn't it humans themselves who have killed humans the most and fiercely in history?
Maybe only the Kovo who took him in was an outlier, and after too much killing, he knew how difficult it was to put down the sword in his hand.
Stannis decided not to spend any more time on this human level, "How did you meet Tucker?"
"During a food grab, he and his young brother once saved my life. ”
"So you know him well, huh?"
Heliana nodded.
"Then why can't he be an ordinary demon honestly, and he wants to build a kingdom of demons and ghosts, and he wants to create some kind of god in the world. Even if you say that you demons and ghosts eat people, it is natural for him to do so much evil, it is useless to wash his name!"
Hyliana didn't seem to have any intention of defending her ex-lover, "That's why I'm here to help you kill him." ”
"How did he get to be like this?"
"Because you humans killed his brother. ”
“...... Isn't it normal for you to have casualties in the war with the human race! Even so, you don't need to create a god to destroy the world!"
"In order to avoid disputes with you humans, we only seek out nameless corpses exposed in the wilderness to eat. But one day his brother was caught by a group of people from the Inquisition while he was out foraging, and they roasted him over and over again for amusement until he was dying, and then restored him with divine magic, and tortured him for three days before he died, even though his brother had never even seen what a human being looked like. ”
Stannis was speechless, sometimes humans themselves could not know how terrible they would become in the absence of moral confinement, such as the Armin who could sell his own flesh and blood in order to survive.
"From now on he is no longer the Tucker I know, he is no longer running for so-called peace, he is a dead soul born for revenge. ”
"But why did you betray him! His cruelty is only revenge on us humans, isn't it?"
Hyliana looked up, and Stannis could tell from her slightly trembling body that she was terrified.
"The reason why I betrayed him was to find out that he was hiding a terrible plan from all of us, and he wanted to sacrifice our demon clan in exchange for the destruction of your human race!"
"What kind of operation is this!" Stannis had never encountered such a situation, "Lose 1,000 and kill 800 !?"
Hyliana took a deep breath, even more shocked when she learned of her lover's crazy thoughts than Stannis is now.
"Tucker has gone mad, after his brother's death he focused all his energy on revenge, since ten years ago he was planning how to wipe out you humans forever, one day, he met a thin human boy with black hair, he showed Tucker the power of revenge, and needed to use the corpse of Tucker's brother to breed what he called a god. ”
This story sounds a little familiar, how can the second middle school boy in the West Continent exist like a rotten street? Batesmore also sacrificed himself to the Divine Seal in exchange for the power of revenge because of the crazy killing of a beautiful boy.
"And then?"
Blinded by hatred, Tucker did not hesitate to give everything he had, and the boy created an embryo and made his brother the seed of the so-called true god, but it would take a huge vessel to hold him in order to truly hatch into a god. ”
