Chapter 228: Prisoner
"But that was a long time ago, right? demons can survive that long, but those prisoners must be dead no matter what they think, right?"
Lamech didn't think those prisoners could live that long, knowing that this world is not an online novel, as long as you do what you do, you can live forever.
The living things will eventually die, and the tangible things will eventually disappear.
This is the "principle" that cannot be changed.
"If it's a normal case, of course it is. β
In other words, those prisoners are not ordinary people.
"But the prisoners in Macentonia are no ordinary people. β
Isaac's voice became serious.
"The prisoners who are being held here are people who are guilty of the most heinous crimes that cannot be executed or that are difficult for humans to kill, and each of them has the power to be called a 'disaster' and a brutal nature. β
Lamech disagreed, although what Isaac said was terrifying, but those prisoners were human after all, right? Then the prisoners' power could not surpass the scope of human beings.
'Can't be put to death' and 'can't be killed', the real situation should be the former, after all, this kind of thing is not new even on Earth, let alone in a world where power differentiation is more obvious.
As for the so-called 'hard to kill', it's probably just a flawed excuse, and Lamech really can't think of any kind of person who is difficult to kill.
"It's hard to imagine that these prisoners can fight against demons, and confronting demons in human bodies is no different from seeking death. β
Lamech didn't know if it was because of Aysak's misinformation or some other reason, but if there were other reasons, then it could only be said that the people of Macentonia were cruel.
"It's like deliberately sending the prisoners to their deaths. β
Isaac glanced at Lamech meaningfully, as if to see Lamech's disapproval, so Isaac explained.
"Miss Lamech seems to have misunderstood something, the prisoners here are not human, but inhuman. β
Ignoring Lamech's astonishment, Isaac continued.
"Among them, there are demonic beasts or vicious monsters that have destroyed cities, and even other races and even humans who have become brutal and terrible for special reasons, and these prisoners even surpass the lower demons in terms of the degree of horror. It's not so much a prison for sinners as a shelter for terrible monsters. β
-- That's ridiculous. Lamech subconsciously wanted to refute it, but it would be foolish to refute it just because he couldn't accept it, so Lamech tried to accept Isaac's statement and raised questions based on it.
"Aren't these so-called prisoners stronger than demons, and how did they get caught by humans who lost to demons?"
This doesn't make sense, if the prisoners are stronger than the demons, then how can they be captured by humans?
It's an endless loop.
On the question of Lamech, Azak first defended himself.
"These prisoners are not stronger than demons, they are just stronger than the lower demons. For the desperate Macentonians, that alone was enough for them to try. β
Desperate people will seize every opportunity that could be a lifesaver, and this is indeed a very reasonable reason. But Ramech's reasoning was more of an excuse.
"I see. β
At this point, Lucia suddenly interjected, more like she was explaining Lamech than agreeing with Isaac.
"Humans can't defeat demons, because the number of demons can make up for the numerical advantage, but the tactics of crowds can be used against these basically lone prisoners, which is really in line with human style. β
There are a lot of demons, and those prisoners are not captured at the same time, which means that from the beginning it is not a matter of pure combat effectiveness, but a matter of tactics.
β...... Indeed, in this case, the prisoner may be stronger than the demon. β
However, it is still hard to imagine that a prisoner who can defeat the demons.
ββReally...... I was deeply affected. The Holy See is always preaching how terrible the devil is, in order to bring out the correctness and greatness of his own actions, and although Lamech has never believed in this kind of pyramid scheme, it seems that he has been slightly affected now.
It seems to have seen through Lamech's thoughts, Isaac emphasized.
"The lower demon is nothing more than a miscellaneous soldier among demons, and such a miscellaneous soldier is not invincible, and it is ......"
As if in remembrance, Isaac scanned the entire underground passage, as if he had seen Macentonia in the middle of the war through the underground passage.
And even the release of the prisoners did not make the war any better, and Macentonia was not able to defeat the demons until the end, or even escape from the demons ...... the future of destruction. β
What a heavy topic.
Whether Lameshan believes it or not, and whether Asaac's words are true or not, the destruction of Macentonia is unshakable.
Lamech couldn't imagine what it was like to hold on to the last line of defense in despair, the kind of thing that was like waiting for death was too terrible and too cruel.
Lucia suddenly tilted her head, her eyes closed, and she didn't say a word.
It didn't look like she was mourning the destruction of the country, and it was impossible for Lucia to do such a compassionate thing, so Lamech strangely asked.
"What's wrong, Lucia?"
Lucia looked at Lamech with her head tilted up, and said something else that was completely incapable of answering.
"Lamech doesn't believe those prisoners can beat demons, does he?"
Lucia asked with a mischievous smile on her lips.
Seeing Lucia's smile, Lame's heart trembled, and she always felt a bad premonition.
β...... That's right. β
Anyway, just a few words, and saying the same thing or not not has no effect on what actually happened, so Lamech replied.
Lucia smiled even more happily when she got the answer, and she pretended to be sad and sighed in a mischievous tone.
"Then you're miserable. β
It seems that Lamech's bad premonition is about to be fulfilled.
If you think about the previous conversation, you can probably guess what Lucia is going to say, and if you can, Lamech really doesn't want to listen to this kind of cool talk at all, but probably no one can control Lucia's mouth.
"Because a couple of things, presumably prisoners, are coming towards us. β
Lamech would be too pitiful if there was only laughter, so Lucia gave a little tenderness along the way.
"Need me to help you with the countdown?"
Who wants this kind of gentleness that originates from malice?!"
Lamech was furious.
