Chapter 265: The Demon Prince's Messenger (7)
After listening to the words of the hateful demon Astarott. Ryan's heart was full of sneers, what "respect", what "allies", what "joining the millennium war", these are simply disguised in weakening the strength of humanity. After the Thor Demon failed to conquer humanity by force, he tried to pull humanity into his camp, and then used the opportunity of the Millennial War to weaken the strong on the human side.
Ryan didn't even need to think about it to guess the fate of the human side, and in the millennium war, the human side would "absolutely" be courteous to the Thor demon, and of course, the human powerhouse would also fight against a very difficult and formidable enemy. After the strong man who can resist the invasion of the Thor demon on the human side dies and falls, the Thor demon will return to this plane with a swagger, as Astarot said, the Thor demon respects the strong, since the strong men of your human race are dead, then the human race is not worthy of respect, that's all.
Although Ryan didn't show his inner thoughts, but the hater demon general Astarlot has a long life, and his wisdom and experience have made him guess Ryan's thoughts, so he laughed, shook his hand and said to Ryan: "Ryan, don't be in a hurry to refuse me, in fact, we both have equal opportunities here." But before I explain these things, let me express my sincerity. β
After the hateful demon general Astarote said this, he turned to Kuze, the lord of Tieflin, and said, "Immediately withdraw your troops, transfer all your forces back, and camp near that space-time gate, and release all your captives." Also, no more unfriendly behavior towards the humans and their allies in this plane is allowed without my orders!Balzac, the three of you are in charge of monitoring, and if anyone disobeys my orders, including Kuze, you can be killed on the spot!"
Although the Tieflin Lord Kuze was invincible when he was in the abyss, he did not dare to have any disobedience in front of Astarott, he was able to gain the trust of the demon prince and become the lord of the abyss, mainly relying on his mother to please this powerful king, and Astarlot was one of the six most powerful and capable demon generals under the command of the demon prince. There is no comparison in strength, so Kuze did not hesitate to carry out Astarot's orders.
At the same time as the hater gave the order, the underground dwarf Miro had already translated what he had said in Tieflin to Ryan and the others, and the actions of Kuze and his men proved this, and the demoralized Tifflin retreated in the direction he came, and all the Tieflins in Ryan's sight disappeared without a trace.
"I'll take a look!" Serraokams surged to his feet, his body already leaping high, and then the adult red dragon did not hesitate to transform into a giant dragon form and flew into the blue sky. Ten minutes later, the dragon in the form of Serraokams swooped back towards the ground with a roar, and when his body was about to make contact with the ground, Serraokams suddenly changed into a humanoid form again, and stood back on the ground with a gentle and dexterous attitude.
After some aerial reconnaissance, Serraokams had almost grasped the situation near Tekken Castle, and he stood beside Ryan and said loudly, "The Tieflings are indeed retreating, they have left the corpses of their companions and are heading west. β
Astarlot smiled and said, "Ryan, now that I've shown my sincerity, isn't it your turn? We shouldn't be in a hostile position anymore, right?
Ryan didn't immediately answer Astarote's question, but turned his head to ask his companions for their opinions, his eyes swept over Faras, Orlando, Victor, Elondo, and the others, and saw a variety of different expressions, obviously everyone had different thoughts about the proposal of the hated demon general, but in the end it was Galib who spoke: "Don't worry, that guy is not hostile, at least not now. β
Ryan listened to Galib's words, nodded slightly, then turned back to Astarote and said, "Well, I invite you to my territory now, I hope this is a good start." But there are some things that must be said in advance, and if there is any unfriendly behavior, we will not hesitate to go to war, at all costs!"
The Hateful Admiral Astarot was noncommittal to Ryan's warning, and he smiled as he followed Ryan and Faras, walking side by side with Galib to the Iron Fist Castle. Faras stared at Catherine in the distance with eyes full of hatred, but her behavior made Ryan notice, so the latter gently held Farath's small hand to remind her not to be impulsive, Farath's chest rose and fell rapidly, obviously her heart was very excited, but as the archon of the imperial capital, Farath finally chose to put the interests of mankind first, but even she didn't notice that Farath's nails had been deeply pinched into Ryan's palm, but the latter quietly enduredγ
Catherine didn't seem to see Faraz's hostility, she affectionately took the hand of the elf queen Freya, and the two walked side by side in the last row of the entire team, in front of them were Orlando and Victor, with so many strong people pressing the formation, even if Astarlot had any bad intentions, it was enough to deal with him, so Alendor did not follow Ryan and them all the way, but took Barbara and others to start busy.
"Please take a seat!" In the end, they followed Ryan into the study, only Galib and Victor were the only two, Ryan as the host, naturally to entertain the guests generously, Astarott looked at Emma with some curiosity at the glass of bright red Bordeaux that Emma served for herself, and couldn't help but say to Ryan: "I didn't expect you to be the kind of stubborn lord, I learned from the thoughts of your subordinates that humans and the undead are hostile existences, but your study actually uses a dead soul as a maid." And then there's the underground dwarf, whose face is full of confidence, and if you don't use him and give him the necessary respect, I'm sure it's impossible for this naturally humble race to have a confident look. β
"I'm not used to enslaving people. Ryan replied lightly and sat down in his chair.
"Haha!" Astarote naturally didn't debate with Ryan on this issue, he laughed a few times and sat down in his chair, and then Astarlot picked up the best Bordeaux in front of him, tasted it, and the delicious wine from the imperial capital poured into Astarote's throat, making him feel a happy mood, so Astarlot simply drank the wine in the glass.
"Good stuff. Astarot couldn't help but praise him, then put the wine glass back on the table with a smile, and said slowly: "Okay, although I have a long life, but I don't have Lang's time-wasting vice, I know that you don't agree with my proposal just now, but I believe that after listening to my explanation, you will understand that the opportunity is equal for you and me." β
"Have you ever seen a god?" Astarote's first words immediately stunned Ryan and the others, and Astarote was also satisfied that his opening words could achieve such an effect, he continued: "The seven kings of the other world, each of them from ordinary to legendary, to realm, to demigod, they have spent countless years to have the current power, it can be said that looking at the entire other world, at least until now, no one has been able to compete with the seven kings, except for themselves. But this does not mean that the power of the seven kings ends here, in fact, hundreds of thousands of years ago, there have been people who have surpassed the demigod realm of these current kings and reached another unimaginable new realm. β
"Actually, the kings of the other world are not eternal, there will be the fall of old kings, and the birth of new kings, and the current seven kings are not the same as in ancient times. Although it has been a long time for the monarch to change between the old and the new, as the most powerful biological race in the Atlas, we Thor Demons have always had a detailed record of these histories, so I can sit here today and tell you these secrets. β
"The birth of a new god is completely different from stepping into the realm of legends, realms, etc., a great god does not even need to have any power, as long as he has his own unique godhead, he can have an overwhelming advantage over other creatures without godhead, this is the power of God - Godhead. Sounds strange, doesn't it? It's a power that we can't understand, but it's real. When the hateful demon general Astalote said this, his tone suddenly slowed down, and his speech slowed down a lot, and there was a hint of melancholy in his voice: "According to the records of our Thor Demon, although the godhead of that newly promoted god is extremely weak, but just by virtue of the power he has just comprehended, he has also crushed several kings to join forces, and there were as many as seventeen kings in the other world at that time, but after that battle, only eleven were left, and several of them fell in a hurry in the next hundred years......
"Since then, the six surviving kings have gathered together to devote themselves to research, and after thousands of years of hard thinking, they have finally found a way to become gods, and there are as many as two ways!" Astarott's tone suddenly became excited: " This first one, is to go through a long time, and finally stimulate the energy in the body to successfully ignite the divine fire, so as to have a godhead, although this godhead is very small, its power can only be counted as 0, but whether to have it is the difference between quality and quantity, as long as you have a godhead, and then go through a longer time, I believe that you can slowly grow your godhead, so as to enhance your power as a godhead. β
"This method is so illusory, at least no one has succeeded in the last hundreds of thousands of years, but the other method is even more unreliable than this one. Astarot spread his hands and said, "That is to find a true god, defeat him, and take his godhead." Haha, as mortals, how can we defeat a god with a godhead? Even if the other party still has a godhead with a power of only 0, he can use his divine power to fight the enemy, unless it is a demigod-level existence like a king, otherwise under the will of the god, it is basically wiped out without resistance, this is the power of God.
