Chapter 1237: Unite
The light didn’t have too strong an oscillation or destruction. Everything within the covered area became quiet, including the torrent of the Abyss monsters that swarmed in after and the panicked Holy Light City.
Everything began to distort.
The blood-red lava actually turned into streams of clear springs while the Abyss monsters solidified into clay sculptures, which were washed by the clear spring and softened into earth and rocks one after another. The collapsed Holy Light City turned into a jungle as trees appeared one after another. The ground was full of flowers and weeds, full of vitality.
However, the lives here no longer existed, revealing a dead silence.
‘Dead silence’ and ‘vitality’ combined to form a weird atmosphere.
This was a new creation. From another perspective, it was actually another kind of destruction.
The white light in the center of the light suddenly dimmed a little. It was already caught in the palm of a claw.
The skin of this claw was ripped open, and dark green blood dripped continuously. Not only the claw, but the entire hideous figure was mutilated. Many wounds were so deep that bones could be seen.
“You damn ant! You actually severely injured my soul origin!” Sosbach roared angrily. Under the fluctuating mood, the white light in his claw couldn’t be controlled. The bone spurs on his shoulders and elbows trembled and grew out green leaves.
Sosbach’s face twitched. His claw flew out with streams of dark green blood, covering the Book of Creation in his hand layer by layer. His whole body and the ‘blood cells’ in his hand gradually dimmed, and he disappeared in the blink of an eye.
For a world where communication was already fairly advanced, news traveled extremely quickly, especially… bad news.
Over the next few days, a sensational news shocked the whole world.
The Holy Church’s base camp, the White Cliff, was completely destroyed by the Abyss. It had become a dead land!
The White Cliff is a sacred place in the hearts of countless the Holy Church believers, with the blessing of Light God. It is guarded by powerful angels headed by the 3 archangels, and countless Glorious Knights, which is the core of the sacred and supreme faith; unexpectedly, it was actually completely destroyed by the Abyss monsters!
What about the Glorious Knights? What about the Angels?
What about… God?
Not only the believers of the Holy Church, but all humans fell into panic — Even a colossus like the Holy Church is trampled by the Abyss, so who else can stop these monsters?
For a time, more and more people fled to the west of the mainland. Many empires were still far away from the eastern continent where the Blue Glory Empire was located. The emperors and noble families had already fled; the people had also fled one after another. The law and order were chaotic. The Black Death Followers or criminals took the opportunity to make trouble. The entire human world was in an unprecedented turmoil.
But if even the Blue Glory Empire and the Holy Light Mountain were destroyed by the Abyss monsters, where would it be safe to flee?
Chen Rui received the news the day after the Holy Light Mountain was destroyed, and he was also shocked. He immediately activated the Star Gate, and he came to the star point of Light Divinity Temple.
No doubt, the original White Cliff had changed beyond recognition. The Holy Light City as well as the Holy Light Mountain had become a jungle ruin. Chen Rui sensed a familiar power from it— Creation origin power!
It must be caused by the 3 archangels using the Book of Creation, but the coverage and power of the origin power of creation are extremely astonishing. Even Chen Rui couldn’t help being horrified.
What kind of battle actually took place?
Is the enemy Quilliana, Sosbach or Dillosro?
Where is the Book of Creation now? Have the 3 archangels all fallen?
Are there any other survivors?
Anyway, the destruction of the White Cliff had become a fact. Chen Rui did not stay on the ruined White Cliff. He went straight back to the Demon Realm and arranged some related affairs before he enter the closed-door training state again.
The White Cliff today may well be elsewhere tomorrow, even the Demon Realm…
My homeland and my most cherished people are likely to be destroyed.
Therefore, it is more and more urgent to improve my strength.
The progress of merging the constellations was not as smooth as imagined. Even Zola couldn’t find the feeling she had when facing Quilliana. On the contrary, in the Super System, Chen Rui deduced more mysteries of All Star Gods View based on the planet faith and life aroused by the power of the constellation activated by everyone, which enhanced the power by a lot.
However, Chen Rui, who had fought against Quilliana, knew very well that this was not enough, far from enough.
Faced with more and more refugees, the empires in the west were under tremendous pressure. The biggest Dragon Bright Empire was the most impacted. Not to mention that the Abyss was far away in the east, the swarming refugees itself was a disaster. Food, clothing and other supplies were having inflation, the currency depreciated rapidly. There were riots and looting incidents from time to time. The order was in chaos.
Lex the Great hastily called a meeting of leaders of kingdoms in the nearby western continent to discuss how to deal with the current situation. The first problem was the resettlement of refugees. Due to the large number of people and a series of chain negative effects, even an empire like the Dragon Bright Empire could not accommodate so many refugees. What’s more, this was only the beginning. As time went on and the Abyss spread, the situation would get worse.
After some discussions, the empires had reached a certain consensus on refugee resettlement, commodity prices, economy and other issues. However, everyone was very clear about the fact that what was currently discussed was just a stopgap measure, just like treating a disease. It could only cure the symptoms but not the root cause. The real ‘root’ was the Abyss.
Therefore, the meeting finally discussed 1 of the most important core topics: How to deal with the Abyss.
At present, the Abyss had destroyed most of the empires in the eastern part of the human world, and the central and eastern parts were just lingering with one last breath. If this continued, the bloody frenzy would spread all the way. Sooner or later it would cover the entire world. At that time, humans would be completely extinct.
Even if the power of the Abyss could not be destroyed, the monsters must be stopped. Otherwise, the humans would be defeated before the Abyss came.
The combat power of the Abyss was unquestionable. Judging from the countries that were destroyed before, the most terrifying thing about monsters was their endless numbers and their fearless special attribute. The battle at the Blue Glory Capital was the only battle won between humans and the Abyss. In the end, Landbis evacuated from the Blue Glory Empire with the army and the people.
From the perspective of the number and strength of the army, even the Human Coalition Army could not compete with the Abyss head-on, so other factors must be relied on, such as geographical advantages.
The Thorn Fortress, which was as strong as the Blue Glory Empire, only persisted for 2 hours. However, this geographical advantage was man-made. The geographical factor proposed by Lex the Great was the largest natural barrier – The White Sea.
The sea area of the White Sea was extremely large, dividing the human world into 2 parts, east and west. This was also 1 of the reasons why there was a holy empire in the east and the west, but it was only cold wars for a long time. If the distance was too close, under the conflict of interests, perhaps there would be frequent wars. Originally, there was also the Cloud Rider Empire in the middle, and they were called the 3 Holy Empires.
It was precisely because of the White Sea that it took a lot of time to go from the east to the west of the human world by the normal route.
Starlight Empire, Loya Empire and other empires spend a lot of effort to build the teleportation portal to cross the White Sea. With the teleportation portal, the time of traveling between the east and west continents could be greatly saved. That was why Raizen the Great only gave Chen Rui a month plus to welcome the bride at the Blue Glory Empire.
If the teleportation portal was destroyed, they could only cross the White Sea by ship, which would take at least a few months, if everything went well.
Therefore, the White Sea was the best barrier for humans to resist the Abyss. The Abyss monsters usually had the power of flames. With the sea, the monsters would be restrained accordingly.
The most urgent task was to quickly establish a strong unified defense line in the empires along the White Sea, then form a large number of fleets and aerial legions to prepare for naval battles with the Abyss army.
The teleportation portal must be destroyed. As for the empires east of the White Sea… it could only depend on their own escape speed.
Geographical conditions alone were not enough. At most, it could only stop the Abyss for a while. More and stronger forces were needed.
Dragons, elves, hobbits, orcs…
These added up to nothing compared to the weight of 1 party—— Demons.
In the battle of the Blue Glory Capital, the demons’ reinforcements played a vital role. The unprecedentedly powerful army was actually not shown in the Golden Estate war. If it weren’t for these strange troops, even with the reinforcements from Sandro and various races, Landbis and the Blue Glory Capital could not hold back the Abyss army.
Only by uniting with the demons would it be possible to contend with or even defeat the Abyss. Now the ‘door’ still existed in the Golden Estate. Once the humans were destroyed by the Abyss, the demons would definitely not be spared. They basically shared a common fate. I believe that the 3 empresses of the Demon Realm… including my son who actually controls the Demon Realm, will understand this truth.
Previously, on the Golden Estate battlefield, didn’t ‘Arthur’ stop fighting with the 3 archangels for this reason?
All empires had agreed to unite with the demons, but they were all quite cautious. When humans were at their most critical and weakest, would the demons really cooperate instead of entertaining with evil intentions, secretly planning to take this opportunity to conquer the human world directly? After all, the feud between the 2 sides would not be resolved in a short while. No one could guarantee whether it would lead the wolf into the house. However, everyone was very clear that judging from the current situation, relying on human’s own strength to fight alone was basically a dead end.
Cooperation was imperative.
Somewhat unexpectedly, shortly after Lex the Great sent an envoy to the Demon Realm, he immediately got an accurate answer from the Demon Realm’s 3 empires confederation, agreeing to cooperate and deal with the Abyss together.
The Demon Realm would dispatch troops to the human world and join hands with humans to attack the Abyss army in the White Sea.
From the point of view of the human world, this was the second batch of troops sent by the Demon Realm after the last battle of the Blue Glory Capital; and from the point of view of the Demon Realm, this time it was really joining forces with the human world, because this time it was not just Chen Rui’s ancient legion that was dispatched last time, but a real army of demons.
This meant the first real cooperation between humans and demons.
