495 The strategy of the North
Even when Antonya brought Zhao Xu back to Arthur in the real world, he still felt a little dizzy.
This period of time that he had traveled through 1000 years might seem like a very small “coincidental” event to him, but Zhao Xu could already roughly feel his soul trembling.
He even suspected that he might have left some fragments a thousand years before the great catastrophe and the fall of the gods.
losing his memories “,”assimilating the world “,” merging with the mark “, and all the other possible paths made Zhao Xu realize that “transmigration” wasn’t as simple as he had thought.
This also made him re-examine the fact that he could be “reborn “.
it was a secret that he had yet to figure out.
By the time they returned to the altar in the hole, the dark Owl sovereign grazite had already escaped.
The battlefield was still filled with smoke. The black lava-like pus that grazite had brought with him when he left the factory had already cooled down and solidified.
Perhaps the moment Zhao Xu turned around and faced the divine power of time head on, this Demon King knew that his scheme had come to an end.
This also made Zhao Xu feel a bit more at ease.
When grazite had appeared behind Zhao Xu, he had been so stiff, and this basically meant one thing.
Activating its ability to travel through time had already consumed all of its mobility.
In fact, it couldn’t even control the power to only activate on Antonya and not on Zhao Xu.
At this moment, Zhao Xu and Antonya were both carefully examining the demonic altar in front of them.
It had to be said that after being brushed off by grazite like this, Antonya herself was also quite angry.
“From the looks of it, I’m afraid it’s not too far from what you’ve guessed,”
Antonya looked at the bottom of the altar, where there was a stone tablet that was carved with the language of purgatory, and said, ” this altar is used as the guide for summoning. Once it’s successful, these summoned creatures will then offer sacrifices to open the final teleportation portal.
” a portal from the abyss to the world of arthur. it’s a pleasure trip for the demons, but it’s also the beginning of the pain for the entire northland. ” Zhao Xu sighed.
there were many powerful beings in arthur, but this was only for the high-end combat power.
As for the adventurers, soldiers, and even the local garrisons of the entire North, they had to face the dretches, babus, six-armed snake demons, Balor demons, and other naturally powerful demons.
Unless all of Arthur went all out to help, it would be impossible to kill all of the endless Army of demons. The only thing limiting them was the number of demons that could pass through the teleport portal.
Furthermore, these fiends had been fighting the demonic ghosts on the battlefields all this time, so they had a wealth of battle experience.
“That’s right.”
Antonya’s brows furrowed slightly. the point is, grazite probably left a lot of these altars in the northern Alliance. Even if the authorities were to get involved and plow the entire land, it would still be difficult to find all these altars hidden in the underground holes.
the Army of hell and demons is preparing to descend upon Arthur. Zhao Xu made a silent prediction.
The neat stone tablets and the crude altar that did not seem to be man-made showed that these altars were mass-produced.
There must be a huge organization behind it that was constantly operating.
To Arthur, a disaster that would still cause him heartache many years later, a disaster that could kill all the men of a small country who were born a year ago, was a ladder to heaven for some of the second-rate Devils. It was a wonderful way to keep themselves safe.
some things were just that cruel.
Zhao Xu knew that Inferno’s hands had already reached out to Arthur, but he just couldn’t pull them out by the roots. He could only watch as they spread out like cancer.
At this moment, Zhao Xu remembered that when he was in the mutated Scorpion’s lair, other than Antonya’s “brass treasure chest” dowry, there were corpses hanging from the ceiling of the lair.
And these hanging corpses were exactly the same as the ones hidden in this underground pit.
Zhao Xu immediately told Antonya everything that had happened in the past.
“Then that’s it.” Antonya nodded and said, “back then, donder’s nephew was probably one of the ‘claws’ of this force that came to encircle and annihilate you. It’s just that you’ve cut him off.
as for this matter, I’m afraid they didn’t want to attract the church’s attention, so they searched for it at the beginning, but it was left unsettled after that.
Zhao Xu thought about it for a moment and understood what Antonya was trying to say.
the demons and devils had split up to invade arthur’s northlands during the anti-demon war. it wasn’t an independent event, or rather, it was a rare tacit understanding between hell and the abyss.
On the demon side, grazite wasn’t the only Demon King who had ended up in this battle.
There must be a “mysterious organization” in the North that was connected to the Abyssal Demon lords, and even donder was just a relatively obvious node of this black net.
The northern Alliance and more than a dozen major forces in the northern lands had a network that was far beyond anyone’s imagination.
Looking at the serious expression on Zhao Xu’s face, Antonya consoled him, “the battle of fallen star Lake was the first time you drew your sword against the Northlands. At that time, you could only rely on the power of the outside world.
as for now, if you want to be Arthur’s most invincible sword, you need to have the courage and insight to slowly tear open the net behind the scenes and let it become your touchstone for becoming a legend.
otherwise, do you really think that you can become a legend by killing monsters all the way? the knowledge of killing spells is only a small part of the spell system. All kinds of infiltration and control spells are waiting for you to develop and use.
Antonya, who had only seen a small part of the altar, had already pretty much guessed what abyss and Hell’s intentions were after she saw the actual altar and the other thing that Zhao Xu had provided her with.
After thinking this through, Zhao Xu stood up on the spot. His eyes were filled with determination and anger.
In his previous life, the lack of food and clothing at the beginning of his transmigration, as well as the subsequent demon-sealing war, were the two disasters that caused the entire earth’s population to decline rapidly.
Not to mention the people of Earth, just the innocent people of the entire North suffered countless casualties.
Many small towns that used to be peaceful were turned into scorched earth, and some small cities even became a paradise for demons. Human corpses were hung on the outer walls, and bones were piled up to form altars and towers to be sacrificed to the Lords.
Suddenly, Zhao Xu’s heart clenched as if an invisible force was gripping it tightly.
His tone was indifferent. teacher, is it because the gathering place for Earth’s transmigration in the future is the North of the entire Ice Mountain range? is that why this disaster might happen here? ”
Antonya looked at Zhao Xu with a gentle gaze. from the moment the first legendary wizard mistakenly entered the Earth’s universe, this plan became possible. We even have to trace it all the way back to the Alliance between the gods after the great catastrophe.
as for the purgatory, they’ll naturally set up a plan for this.
gods, for the ‘battle of dusk’ in the future, prepare enough believers for yourself. at the same time, the abyss and hell also need to replenish their souls as reserves.”
they will definitely invade Arthur. Choosing the location where the Earthlings transmigrated to is just a consideration to maximize the benefits.
“The feeling of being treated like a chess piece and a pig is really not a good feeling.”
Zhao Xu couldn’t help but laugh out loud, but his laughter sounded as if he was about to explode with emotions.
even if the master God of Arthur can get rid of the restrictions of believers, they will still develop their own God followers and apostles, and continue to expand their believers in Arthur.
“The harvested land is right here. If you don’t go and harvest this handful of wheat, there will naturally be others waving their Sickles in the harvest season. A stronger farm owner would have the capital to acquire others.”
Antonya pointed out the key to the battle of faith that had been going on for the past ten thousand years.
this is what he taught me. If I don’t want to be a farmer who swings his sickle and harvests, and I don’t want to be a farmer who works hard for an entire year without any harvest, then I’ll be a traveler and witness the rise and fall of Arthur, the rise and fall of history.
“As long as I don’t become a God, I won’t be expelled from Arthur by the world’s will. I will be able to wait for the end of this world with my power at the peak of this world. That’s why I’m able to witness the appearance of the third goddess of magic like today.”
“Teacher, there are existences that can threaten you in the 17th outer layer?” Zhao Xu couldn’t help but ask.
“that’s for sure, but it’s rare. some existences are already incomprehensible in concept. Before you can understand how this world was born, you will never be able to guess how many hidden cards are hidden in this world.” Antonya said with emotion.
“Then what’s next? After verifying our identities in Olu city, we’ll return to Starfall town with the supplies. What’s your plan?”
When he heard this question, Zhao Xu answered with a lot of emotion, ” it’s fine if I didn’t know about it before.
since I know that don is the key and that there is a ‘network’ around them that secretly helps the abyss, I will naturally eradicate it.
“Perhaps these people who betrayed Arthur have their own reasons. They will say loudly that Arthur can’t defeat the powerful forces of hell and the abyss, and that they are sacrificing some of their inferior clansmen for the continuation of their civilization for the sake of humanity and other races.”
but I think they should go down to the abyss and tell the demons about this.
