Baroque entered the city of King Alberon after wearing the mask of the illusion god and pretending to be an ordinary person, and heard the news of the distant battle. `

There was no accident, the Big 6 coalition army was defeated, and the main camp was copied by the dark army, and then it made a surprise attack, directly defeating the coalition army, and the loss was very miserable. If it weren't for the forced intervention of the demigods at the last minute, provoking the intervention of the Shadow Skeletron and the Devourer of Hunger, the war of ordinary people would have almost turned into a demigod catastrophe. Rao is finally both sides took a step back, and the victorious dark army stopped the pursuit, but at that time, hundreds of thousands of large 6 coalition troops were killed and wounded, and their morale completely collapsed. The commander in charge of the Holy See is said to have failed to bear the humiliation and committed suicide.

Baroque sat in the corner of the tavern, silently listening to a group of drunkards foaming and talking about the latest results ahead, which felt strange.

The kingdom of Alberon was not as dark and evil as it had imagined, and the people did not live in terror and fear. The sky is still blue, people are still laughing and laughing, the shops are still lively, and the streets are still thriving. Except for the emblem of the Apocalypse Holy See, which was everywhere in the past, it was replaced by a metal coat of arms representing the Demon Temple, and it can be said that everything is as before.

What this represents, the Baroque is clear. After a period of initial weakness, the dark Ones are now fully established. From the Scarlet Empire of Samoa to the Kingdom of Ebron, there is no longer a need to create armies through evil manipulation. With the Demon Temple, demons are able to show their invincible power to the people. For the very realistic, human race that has always worshiped the strong, whether they believe in demons or gods of light, there is not much difference. Soon a large number of people became believers in demons. It's like a snowball, and the ranks of demon believers are growing and growing rapidly. Clearly, the proud, boastful victories of the dark army in the tavern were among the fanatical demonic believers.

The country is still the same as it was, the people are still the same people, and life has hardly changed, except for mass conscription. Rather, because those who hold power follow the orders of their demonic masters. Interested only in land and population, and not in the expropriation of a little bit of wealth. The more the big merchants and nobles who had to pay their own high taxes in the past also changed their views on the dark army. It didn't take long for them to join ......!

There are many factors. The Kingdom of Alberon has been kept as prosperous as ever. Perhaps the only unfortunate ones were the royal family of Ebron, whose entire family was uprooted and slaughtered due to their staunch devotion to the God of Light. Baroque mourned for the princes who had pursued Serra, if they could hold on a little longer, even if it was to stay in the Duchy of Hanseasa for a little longer. Maybe we can avoid this catastrophe.

Having heard enough of the praise of demons everywhere, Baroque paid a silver coin for wine and left the tavern, walking slowly down the street in the direction of the demon temple. At this time, Skeletron and the Devourer of Hunger had not yet returned from the front line, and he had the opportunity to get close to the temple and feel the demonic power. Maybe it will help you break through the barrier of demigods.

It's ironic! When Baroque turns around the street corner hundreds of meters away, he sees the most majestic building in the royal city from a distance. On the towering spire of the temple, the statue of the god of light, with its snow-white wings stretched out, had long since disappeared, replaced by a black cloak that revealed only two knotted horns. His eyes were red, and his bat-like wings were shrunk behind his back, like a giant-like demon god.

Suddenly, Baroque had a very strange feeling! Although the face of the demon god was covered in a cloak and did not show his true face out of respect and avoidance, he always felt that there were many similarities between the god of light and the demon with clear powers. ............ It's like twins, but because they live in completely different environments. It caused a difference in their essential strength.

Baroque knew it was nonsense, but when the feeling took root in his heart, it could never be erased. It's a pity that doubts are doubts, and it is impossible for him to confirm them. And for now. Whether or not the demon has a special entanglement with the God of Light, it has little to do with his current situation.

The Holy See of the Apocalypse has branches of the God of Light in all parts of the Big 6, and in Paddington, in the Duchy of Hanseas, in the Samoan Empire and the Adrian Empire, the Baroque has been observed a lot. Although it can't be compared to the main hall on the Bright Mountain, it can always make him feel a trace of the divinity of the God of Light and have some understanding of it. The Demon Temple in front of him is the first main temple of the Demon on the Big 6............ The devil knows why Syllusius didn't build the demon main temple in Samoa in the rear, but ran to the kingdom of Alberon, which had just been occupied for a short time. Baroque speculated that it should be the demonic forces who were not willing to live in a corner, and the fertile and rich middle of Sauron 6 was what they coveted. It was only then that he built the main temple in Alberon and used it as a springboard to seek more and larger territory.

The two demon demigods have not yet returned, and the dark elf Syllucius is commanding the army in front to reap the fruits of victory, and it is impossible to return at this time. There shouldn't be many powerful beings in the Demon Temple, at least no one can use the special power of the Temple to pose a threat to Baroque. This allowed him to explore from afar more calmly, and the totem spirit beast Rak helped a lot. He disappeared and wandered around, touching the invisible layer of defenses outside the temple again and again. Each ripple of power will create a fluctuation, and as long as it is not light or hostile, the temple's defenses will not be touched. This gave the Baroque an opportunity to realize.

In all fairness, the trace of demonic divine power carried by the Demon Temple was so weak that it was almost undetectable. The temple was still fragile, but Baroque could feel it, slowly but steadily ascending as the power of faith from all directions around it drew closer to it.

It is not clear why the demon, as a god-king level existence that is comparable to the god of light, still cares about the belief of a mere mortal. Shouldn't that be equivalent to a stepping stone, as long as you step into the god level through the faith of the believer, you can abandon it like a piece of paper in the future?

Baroque wondered in his mind, wondering if the gods had another way of using faith?

Just as he was thinking this, a chuckle suddenly sounded behind him, accompanied by the deep voice of the Shadow Skeletron: "Your Excellency Baroque, since you are here, why don't you go in?

Baroque was shocked because he didn't even notice anyone approaching him. So close...... If the other party sneaks up, the consequences are unimaginable.

"Oh, I also just arrived not long ago, and I was blown away by the majesty of the Demon Temple, so I just had a look here. Your Excellency is back so soon?, and it seems that the battle ahead is going well!" Baroque replied with a quiet smile, as if he had already seen Skeletron coming from behind.

"Hehe, it's going well, those stupid pigs of the Holy See have long been wiped out by peaceful days. If it weren't for the nasty protection of the Chosen Warriors and a few demigods, I'm afraid we would not have just defeated them, but annihilated them all. Skeletron replied casually, he really didn't care. The orc in front of him, who had stepped into the demigod level with his own ability, was what he was most interested in. Such an outstanding talent, I haven't seen it for a long, long time...... Even more than 100,000 years ago, in the glorious era before the Great War of the Gods, such people were rare.

"Come on, Lord Baroque, let's not be hypocritical like humans. I know you won't just enter our temple, so I won't invite you in. Let's go out of town and talk!" Skeletron didn't know if it was pretend, or if it was really hearty. said directly to the point, and then the figure floated into the sky and headed out of the city first.

Baroque recalls the totem beast Rak, and Morningstar the Wolf and Evian the Thunderhawk, who are playing around, follow Skeletron out of the city.

Standing on the top of a tree in a dense forest, Skeletron stood at the top of the canopy, looking at the crimson sunset in the distance, as if he was completely fascinated by this magnificent scenery.

"I've lived a long time in the Abyssal Hell, facing lava and fire all the time, and I'm tired of these crimson things. However, after coming to the 6th earth, every time I see the sunset or the rising sun, I will always be fascinated by this red glow...... It's so beautiful, what kind of life I've been living in hell!" With his back to Baroque, Skeletron tilted his head, his entire skeletal face completely exposed, and the green flames in his eye sockets jumped, showing that he was really excited.

"Sauron's Great 6 is not the Great 6 of a certain race, he belongs to everyone, and the demon believers have built two kingdoms, so there is a qualification for you to stand here. Maybe you can stay here for a long time. Baroque said, with a hint of temptation.

"Haha, Baroque, you are the first to welcome the existence of us in the abyssal hell. The other races hate us and see us as invaders. Hmph, it's a pity that the truth of the past has long been lost in history, and how many people still remember that a long, long time ago, the Abyss and Sauron 6 existed in parallel in this world?"

"What? You said that the Abyss Hell and Sauron 6 once existed in parallel in this world?" Baroque couldn't help but ask, as if a certain thread was broken in his heart———— he had always thought that he was also living on a certain planet, but if it was really as Skeletron said, the Abyss Hell and Sauron 6 once existed in parallel, then obviously, his worldview was broken, and this world was probably not a planet!

What's going on here?
