Compared to the turmoil in the Demon Realm, the appearance of the "door" caused the human world to be in chaos. Just the significant weakening of the light element alone caused countless people to panic.
At this time, the Holy Mountain of Light issued an order to all empires and kingdoms, ordering the human countries to immediately stop all civil wars and form a coalition as soon as possible to prepare to fight against the army of the Demons. If there was any disobedience, the Holy Mountain of Light would launch the highest sanction and destroy the entire country.
In the past, the Holy Mountain of Light only appeared in the form of a religion. It would not interfere too much in the internal affairs and disputes of the countries. This kind of order was extremely rare, but it was not the first time.
More than three hundred years ago, more than eight hundred years ago … they had issued such an order. It was not that there were no countries that disobeyed in history, but those countries almost instantly became history.
Demons, in the knowledge of humans with a relatively short lifespan, had countless legends. In almost every legend, there were common keywords such as cruelty, fierceness, and bloodthirstiness. For this terrible existence that would come every five hundred years, people's feelings were mostly similar: fear, hatred, enmity …
The two Holy Empires took the lead in responding to the order of the Holy Mountain of Light. The fastest was Rex The Great.
Every time, the location of the light beam would change. This time, the location was actually within the Jinhui Territory of the Long Huang Empire. The light beam was only two days away from the Long Huang Empire's capital, Yerodisha.
Once the army of the Demons invaded, not only the most fertile Jinyao Territory, but even Yerodisha was likely to become a scorched land. There was no room for slacking. Therefore, Rex The Great mobilized the elites of the country at the first instance and concentrated them in the Jinyao Territory. He also built a large number of fortifications to prepare for the upcoming war.
Empress Rambis of the Rayo Empire organized a well-equipped army in a short period of time, led by the first general, General Sandro, and sent them to the Long Huang Empire to assist in the war. The two empires responded so quickly that other countries also stopped their disputes and organized their armies to gather in the Long Huang Empire.
The supreme commander of the human world's allied forces was naturally Rex the Great. Although the armies of the various countries had their own commanders, they had to listen to Rex the Great's commands when it came to the operations of the allied forces.
The news that made the human allied forces excited came. The Dragons, the Elves, and the Dwarfs announced at the same time that they would send their elite troops to participate in the war as part of the human world to fight against the enemies of the Demon Realm together!
The elves were the strongest archers and mages. If used properly, they could play a decisive role on the battlefield.
The Dragons and the Dwarfs also sent their own armies. The Dragons were naturally powerful, and even the Dwarfs had extraordinary combat power that surpassed ordinary human soldiers.
With the addition of the reinforcements from the three major races, the battle power of the allied forces became even more powerful. They were even more confident in defeating the Demon World. For a moment, the morale of the entire surface world was high.
Silver Moon Immortal Capital.
"Your Majesty! Why send the two princesses to the battlefield? " The one who asked the question was the Elven Elder Patrick. She was the Empress' trusted aide and also Princess Michelle's magic teacher. "Especially Her Highness Michelle …"
It turned out that the commander of the elves this time was the First Princess Phyllis. Even the Little Princess Michelle had become a member of the army.
Empress Liv shook her head and sighed. "There's a saying that goes, 'An unpolished jade is worthless'. Whether it's Phyllis or Michelle, they will grow up sooner or later. Don't worry. With Elder Qi Lanya and Elder Fenoa protecting them in secret, nothing will happen to them. "
Another trusted elder, Cheropan, also spoke up. "Please forgive me for being blunt, but from what I can see, Your Majesty's decision is ill-considered. The elves rarely participate in the war between the two worlds. Regardless of whether they win or lose, there will always be casualties. The birth rate of the elves is low to begin with, and their population is limited. If there are casualties, it will be an irrecoverable loss. This time, we have sent out almost all of our elites. I want to know the specific reason. "
"That's right. This is only the beginning of the war. The outcome of the battle is still unclear. Based on past situations, our best attitude is to wait and see."
"You don't have to say anything more. This is Lady Alucier's order before she left." Empress Liv's words caused the two trusted elders to fall silent. "Final order."
After a while, Cheropan asked, "Lady Alucier already knew that the 'gate' would open?"
Empress Liv did not reply. She only looked into the distance quietly. In reality, Alucier had said more than that. However, Empress Liv did not say the rest.
The Demon World was also nervously preparing for battle. Although the three Empresses knew the truth of the war between the two worlds, they also knew that this war was unavoidable.
This was a calamity. Only when enough lives were lost could it end.
It was either the lives of the Demons or the lives of the races on the ground. No one was willing to sacrifice their own race, so this war must be fought, and they must not lose!
Originally, the commander of the Demon World was Catherine. However, Catherine, Jía, and Tiffany were already super-grade powerhouses. According to the restrictions of the contract, super-grade powerhouses were not allowed to participate in the war. Even if the three Empresses did not sign the contract, as long as they appeared on the battlefield, they would be besieged by the super-grade powerhouses of the two worlds.
Even if Chen Rui was there to suppress the 3 Supreme Angels, Satan, and others, this would cause a higher-level war. Most importantly, the war between the 2 worlds with the sacrificial nature was still unavoidable. It could be said that the gains did not make up for the losses.
The gate of the Demon World was in the Bloody Empire, but the 3 generals of the Bloody Empire were re-promoted by Tiffany after she ascended the throne. Although their abilities were good, they were not strong enough to become the commander of the entire Demons Coalition Army.
At this time, Catherine, who used her illness as an excuse, recommended a candidate, Gerant, the second general of the Fallen Angel Empire.
Gerant's military talent was quite outstanding. Even the first general of the Fallen Angel Empire, George, praised him. Catherine recommended the general of the Fallen Angel Empire instead of her own Shadow Empire. She also showed convincing fairness and calmness.
Sure enough, after several generals of various countries carried out a "friendly" military deduction, Gerant's ability was recognized by all parties. He became the commander of the Demons Coalition Army as expected. The upper echelons of the 3 countries also knew that in addition to Gerant, the commander on the surface, the first sage, Catherine, would also plan behind the scenes to become a veritable "double insurance".
10 days had passed. The "gate" had officially formed, and the repulsive force had disappeared. Ordinary people could approach without any hindrance.
The hall and companions in the light beam disappeared and became a pure gate. In other words, as long as one entered the light beam, one could directly come to another world.
Separated by a gate, the difference between life and death.
The coalition forces of the 2 worlds were still constantly gathering and dispatching troops to make various preparations. It was fine if they didn't make a move, but once they made a move, it would definitely be a swift and fierce attack.
The war had not yet started, but the atmosphere was already more tense.
Dark Moon City, streets.
Chen Rui walked slowly, forming a sharp contrast with the somewhat rapid footsteps of the people around him. After the "gate" opened, the pace of life in various cities involuntarily accelerated.
"Hurry up, I heard that Tana Supermarket is about to run out of stock!"
"Yesterday, 50 Fallen Angel Jinyuan Bonds could still buy a bag of flour, but it has risen to 70 today!"
"Why are you still using Fallen Angel Jinyuan Bonds? You can use crystal coins directly now!"
"I know, but the bank has a maximum limit every day. Each person can only withdraw a certain amount at a time. Didn't you see the long queue at the bank door? I can't even squeeze in! "
"Stop talking, let's go quickly!"
"…"
Even in the Demon Realm, not everyone loved war. For the majority of people who were enjoying the rare peace and becoming more and more peace-loving, the opening of the "gate" was like a sword of Damocles hanging high in the sky. It might fall down at any time to destroy their lives and lives.
People were buying all kinds of supplies. The prices of living things such as food, clothing, daily necessities, magic supplies, and weapons increased several times in an instant. Banknotes and bonds began to depreciate, and the bank's crystal coin reserves were constantly running low. This was still under the constant suppression and regulation of the alliance. If it was left unchecked, the economic impact alone could cause great chaos.
This was just the beginning of the war.
Chen Rui's footsteps stopped as he heard a conversation between a mother and daughter on the roadside.
"Xilu, you're a girl. Don't fight with others. Look at your forehead, it's bleeding."
"They said that brother will die in battle …"
"No, your brother will definitely come back, and he will become an officer or even a general."
"I just want to see brother come back alive. Mom, why do we have to fight? Isn't our life very good? Why do we have to occupy the human world? "
"I don't know either. Humans and we have been sworn enemies for many years. Even if we don't take the initiative to attack, they will come and invade our homeland. Your brother is the most heroic. He is protecting our world. "
"En, we will definitely win! Brother will definitely come back! "
"… …"
Why do we have to fight?
Isn't our life very good?
Brother is protecting our homeland.
These words weighed heavily on Chen Rui's heart. Protecting our homeland, resisting invasion, occupying the world with sunlight … … These were all just lies.
What is the truth?
Chen Rui closed his eyes. Everything around him seemed to be burning. The buildings turned into ruins. The words turned into cries. The ground was littered with corpses. The tranquility was burned by blood and fire. Countless living beings turned into cold numbers and were annihilated under the scythe of the Grim Reaper.
What has life become?
Chen Rui slowly opened his eyes. His face was covered in tears.
The tears were from pity, not weakness.
Only those who respected life could truly enjoy life, comprehend life and cherish it.
A unique life, perhaps, was the existence that truly reigned above everything else.
Chen Rui looked at his opened hand. He slowly clenched it, as though he was holding onto hope.
He continued to walk forward.
