What appeared in front of Li Huailin was a black magic array with a red door in the middle. It looked like a teleportation array, but it felt a little dangerous. He did not know where the destination was. However, Li Huailin was not very worried. After all, these people were neutral anyway. Besides, he was almost invincible with his Shadow Edge, so there was nothing to be afraid of.
Yoda and Salem walked in quickly, and Li Huailin followed without hesitation. A black light flashed, and Li Huailin felt his vision brighter. After adapting to the light, Li Huailin found himself in a Crystal Canyon.
He looked around. It was brighter, not because of the torches, but because the crystals around him were glowing. The corridor in front of him was very deep, and it seemed to lead to somewhere far away. Yoda and Salem had already started walking forward, and Li Huailin immediately followed.
While Li Huailin was studying where he was, Yoda's voice came from the front. "This is the Crystal Palace, Dodaniel, the former capital of the demons."
"Pfft … Crystal Palace? That's a good name. " Li Huailin could not help but say. Yes, although he knew that the name was given because of the crystals around it, it still made people feel strange.
"The demons used to rule the entire continent, and this was the center of the world at that time. Unfortunately, it has become like this …" Yoda continued. "All of this was caused by the Protoss, and the current Demons do not know these things at all because the demons have been eliminated by the Protoss in history."
As he spoke, the three of them walked out of the crystal corridor, and at the end was a relatively large room. Li Huailin could not see the top even when he looked up. He could only vaguely see the crystal ceiling, and the surrounding stone walls were filled with crystal clusters. It felt a bit like a huge crystal mine. Of course, the most eye-catching thing was not the crystals, but the one in front of Li Huailin.
What appeared in front of Li Huailin was a huge platform. In the middle of the platform were four huge crystal seats that looked like four thrones. Although there was no one up there, for some reason, there was a huge pressure, as if there was an aura that made people feel suffocated.
Yoda and Ceren came to a halt and immediately knelt in front of the empty throne with abnormally pious expressions. Li Huailin just stood there and did nothing, but the two of them didn't care about Li Huailin. They saluted him seriously, and Yoda turned around again.
"This is between the thrones." Yoda said lightly, "A long time ago, the four kings of the demon race were here, ruling over the people of the world."
"Four kings? Wouldn't it be chaotic?" Li Huailin said. Not only was there not a single emperor, but it was also an even-numbered parliamentary system. What if there were two votes against two? Who should he listen to? Li Huailin always felt that this inexplicable multi-king system was looking for trouble.
"The demon race is quite united, and they will resolve everything through negotiation," Yoda said immediately. "If it weren't for those abominable gods, the demon race's rule would have lasted for eternity."
Li Huailin finally understood that Yoda was a fanatical fan of the Evil Demons. He even said something like eternal rule. Isn't this a joke? However, Li Huailin was too lazy to argue with him, and went straight to the point.
"So, you brought me here just to see the abandoned capital of the Evil Demons? I'm here to look for the Evil Demons, "Li Huailin said.
"It seems that there's something wrong with your eyesight." Yoda sighed and said, "Come with me."
After saying that, Yoda continued to walk forward. Li Huailin was a little puzzled. Something wrong with my eyesight? What does this mean? However, he still continued to follow Yoda. The three of them walked to the bottom of the throne's platform. There was a spiral staircase that led all the way to the throne above. Following the staircase, the three of them continued to walk up. Soon, they arrived in front of the throne. Looking down from here, they could see where the three of them were standing before. It must be a good feeling to sit here. When they reached the top, Li Huailin realized that the crystal throne here was actually so huge. He couldn't see anything from below, but when he walked closer, the throne was actually nearly ten meters high. It felt like it was not for a human, but for a giant.
"What's that?" Suddenly, Li Huailin was slightly stunned. He suddenly saw a strange shadow sitting on the leftmost crystal throne. To be honest, Li Huailin really didn't see it. This thing was just a phantom. It didn't look like a real entity at all. It was translucent. Most importantly, the other party's body was the size of a normal human. It was a very thin shadow. Compared to the huge throne, it was very inconspicuous.
Li Huailin looked at this strange phantom. This guy was really strange. Although it was about the size of a human, it didn't look like a human at all. Its whole body was dark red, and its body seemed to be emitting a red light. Its eyes were bright red, and most importantly, there were two black horns on its head. However, when he looked at the guy's lower body, it was actually empty.
That's right. Although this guy was just a phantom, he felt like a traditional ghost. His upper body was normal, but his lower body was like a lump of smoke. Now, it was leaning on the throne as if it was sleeping. It didn't even notice that Li Huailin and the others had arrived.
Li Huailin now knew why Yoda said that his eyesight wasn't good. However, he really couldn't see it clearly. This guy was so small, and it was just a phantom. Moreover, it only had half a body, so he couldn't see it at all. Li Huailin could only see it clearly when he reached the top. He couldn't be blamed for that.
"My King above." While Li Huailin was still trying to figure out what this thing was, Yoda and Salem suddenly bowed to this guy and knelt down.
"Eh?" Li Huailin was slightly stunned. He then pointed at the phantom and said, "This is the Evil Demons?"
"How rude!" Salem stood up and said to Li Huailin, "This is the royal family of the demon race, the great King of Terror, His Majesty Dalrocos!"
"Salem, you're too noisy!" Yoda yelled at Salem, blaming him for being too loud.
Unsure if Salem's voice had awakened the shadow on the throne, Dalrocos slowly opened his eyes and looked at Yoda before shifting his gaze to Salem. Finally, his gaze landed on Li Huailin, who was standing at the back.
"You have the curse of the Gods on you?" Dalrocos spoke. His voice sounded a little strange, like a mechanical voice. The tone was indescribably strange, and his voice felt like it was directly injected into Li Huailin's body.
"Yes, I've been hit by several Divine Punishments." Li Huailin knew what Dalrocos meant, so he nodded and said, "Are you from the Evil Demons?"
"I'm the King of Terror, Dalrocos. Of course, people might not know this name anymore." Dalrocos looked at Li Huailin and said, "I really didn't expect a human to come here. You … What did you do to make the Gods use Divine Punishments on you?"
"I just demolished a few temples," Li Huailin said, spreading his hands.
"Oh?" Dalrocos looked at Li Huailin with interest.
"More than 400 …" Li Huailin continued.
"Hehehe …" Dalrocos couldn't help but laugh. "You're interesting."
"Your Majesty, this is the current emperor of the continent." Yoda explained Li Huailin's identity. If Li Huailin was just an ordinary person who had been hit by Divine Punishments, Yoda wouldn't have brought Li Huailin here. He would only let him join the anti-god alliance on the surface. However, he knew that Li Huailin was the emperor of the continent, so he felt that it might be useful. That was why he took the risk and brought Li Huailin here.
"The emperor of the continent? Does that mean that the humans have unified the continent? "Dalrocos asked.
"No, it's just that this guy made all the races on the continent temporarily submit to his rule," Yoda explained.
"You're … very powerful." Dalrocos nodded, but there wasn't much praise in his tone. "So, did you come to me to remove the curse on you?"
"Of course not," Li Huailin said immediately.
"Huh?" Yoda was slightly taken aback, and he looked a little surprised.
"Oh?" Dalrocos also felt that it was a little strange. He thought that Li Huailin was here to remove the curse. After thinking for a while, he asked, "What's your purpose?"
"Removing the curse is just treating the symptoms and not the root cause. I've always liked to treat the symptoms and get rid of the root cause." Li Huailin immediately said, "You see, I've already unified the entire continent, but I didn't expect that there would still be a race called the Divine Race. They're very disobedient, and they always cause trouble for me. Of course, I'm not happy about that. I heard that there's a race called the Demons that are the mortal enemies of the Divine Race. They even went to war with the Divine Race, so I wanted to see if I could find a helper."
"Heh … Hehehe …" Dalrocos let out a strange laugh. "Alliance? You're really a politician. You actually want to form an alliance with us? "
"I'm very serious. But I want to know if your side has the strength to fight against the Divine Race. I really need to find an ally, the kind that can fight," Li Huailin said.
"Okay, then I can tell you about our current situation first." It was unknown whether Dalrocos was being serious or not.
