"Is it because of that?"
Hearing Chen Heng's words, the young man thought to himself and seemed to suddenly understand.
In actuality, no matter how stupid a person was, they would have sensed some things.
He was not stupid, and he had more or less sensed what Chen Heng was saying.
It was just that it was not as clear as Chen Heng's.
Upon hearing his words, the young man was suddenly enlightened, and he felt as though he had suddenly understood something.
"But …"
By the side, the middle-aged man who had been silently listening said, "In some places, some people established new order, but the results were still terrible. Why is that?"
Hearing this, the young man became spirited and looked at Chen Heng.
That was right.
On their way, they had seen many places.
In some of those places, order completely collapsed, but there were also some places where new order was established with the help of the two of them.
However, what surprised them was that after the new order was established, the results were not very good.
The people who had just come to power were not much different from before, and some were even worse than the nobles from before. They were even more violent and ruthless, and things did not develop as they had expected.
Why was that?
"That's the other reason."
Chen Heng thought for a moment before replying, "This is the root cause of this disaster.
"The collapse of order is only on the surface; it is actually caused by a lack of resources and food.
"If a portion of food is enough for five people, but there are ten people who want to split it, no matter what, there will be conflict.
"This is also the reason for the disaster."
On the way, Chen Heng sighed, "The demon disaster has created a large number of victims.
"These victims' resources and food have all been destroyed by the demon beasts, and even if they escape to a safe place, there is no extra food for them.
"This is the fundamental problem. If we do not resolve this problem, even if we change the person in power, the problem will not be resolved.
"This is the same for me."
He looked at the outside world and casually said, "The reason why I can maintain the situation and the stability of this place is not because of anything else, but because I can take out enough food to appease the people who are suffering and prevent them from starving to death."
"Otherwise, those who are about to starve to death will target those who are still alive, and when that time comes, the disaster will be unavoidable."
This was indeed the fundamental reason.
The mayor's group of people, did they really want to drive away the disaster victims and force them to their deaths?
Don't they know that disaster victims are also wealth?
Perhaps they knew, or perhaps they didn't, but they were limited by their own conditions, forcing them to make that choice.
If they wanted to appease the victims, they would have to take out enough food, which was not something everyone had.
Apart from Chen Heng, who had long since predicted the demon disaster and made preparations, who else could do such a thing?
Therefore, it was completely normal for those people to make such a choice.
However, even if they made other choices, they would not be able to escape being used by Chen Heng.
Hearing Chen Heng's explanation, the young man and middle-aged man realized what was going on and understood what the main problem was.
The food conflict was undoubtedly the most urgent matter at the moment.
If they couldn't solve this problem, no matter what they did, the disaster wouldn't disappear.
Of course, the monsters had to be cleared as well.
If they did not clear out the monsters, they would not be able to restore order and normal production.
At that time, there would still be trouble.
On the way, the young man asked many more questions.
Chen Heng answered them one by one, and when he met some that he did not know or was too lazy to answer, he would just shake his head.
Just like that, they reached the end.
"Alright."
After walking outside a building, Chen Heng looked at the two people in front of him and said, "This will be where you'll be staying for the time being.
When the time comes, there will be people coming to remind you of the exact date. Don't forget to reply. "
He smiled and spoke warmly. His attitude was very calm, and he did not seem high and mighty at all.
After seeing the two of them nod their heads, he smiled and walked away.
As a Sorcerer, Chen Heng was usually very busy. Not only did he have to research all sorts of things, but he also had to go to various places to play. He did not have much time to chat with people.
If it wasn't for the fact that the other party had Fortune, he would not have spent so much effort to bring them here.
Seeing Chen Heng hurriedly leave, the young man could not help but sigh, "What a powerful person."
Although they had only interacted for a short time, he had a very good impression of Chen Heng.
Chen Heng was not very old and was only about the same age as him. However, no matter if it was in terms of knowledge or ability, he was extremely outstanding.
This caused the young man to sigh and feel admiration.
"I've decided, James."
Looking at Chen Heng's quickly disappearing figure, the young man's expression became resolute, "I'm going to stay here for a while and carefully observe everything."
"You've decided, Ali?"
The middle-aged man called James looked at the young man and asked, "You're not going to take a look at other places?
Let's put off our journey for now. "
Ali looked at his good friend, "I feel that I can learn many things here.
Since you've made your decision, I'll accompany you. "
James nodded, expressing his support for his good friend's decision.
On the other side, Chen Heng walked towards his residence.
On the way, the people around him greeted him, and many people came up to give him their carefully prepared gifts.
Chen Heng smiled in response, but he politely refused their gifts.
Not too long later, he returned to his room.
After returning to his room, because there was no one around, he immediately returned to normal, and his expression became calm once more.
His fatigued face became normal again, and the fatigue and dark circles under his eyes disappeared. He looked quite normal and did not look tired at all.
Sitting on a wooden chair, he drank a cup of black tea and looked at the document in front of him.
After thinking for a moment, he picked up a pen and wrote something down.
"Ali, Fortune One. Identity mysterious, powerful, suspected to be a hero."
After writing this down, he began to think to himself.
This world was just a simple small world, and in this period of time, there were only two existences who could have Fortune of this level.
They were either the demon king or the hero.
These two people were the main characters of this period of time. In this period of time, they should have the support of the entire small world and powerful Fortune.
From Ali's faith energy, he could not rule out the demon king.
That meant that he was the hero.
In other words, he was the main character of this period of time, someone who was destined to defeat the demon king in the future.
This suited his image quite well.
Thinking of this person's image, Chen Heng could not help but nod.
Ali looked valiant and tall, and he looked very serious. His heart was pure, and he was friendly to others. He was very considerate of others and fit the image of a hero.
For such a person to shoulder the faith of countless people and defeat the demon king, this was quite fitting.
If there were no surprises, he should be the hero.
Now that the hero had appeared, would the demon king be far away?
What Chen Heng was curious about was how this hero versus demon king chapter would unfold.
How would the passage to leave this small world be opened?
Chen Heng felt quite curious.
However, the only thing that could be confirmed was that the current Hero had yet to reach his peak.
Even though his faith energy was powerful, it was only a few times more than Chen Heng's and had not reached an unimaginable level.
It would probably take quite some time for him to grow to his peak.
If this was the case for the hero, then what about the demon king?
Chen Heng felt quite curious and thought to himself.
.....
"Aha!"
Outside a border city, the self-proclaimed demon king held a lollipop in his hand as he yawned.
"Who's cursing me?"
The Demon King muttered to himself as he sensed the reaction that flashed by just now.
"Lord demon king! Who is it that is insulting the honorable sir? "
"How dare they insult someone as honorable as you. This is an intolerable act. Please allow us to destroy this turbid world for you!"
"Let's start with this city!"
Behind him, a group of black-robed people angrily spoke, looking even more agitated than the demon king himself.
Looking at this group of people, the demon king felt quite speechless.
Fortunately, after experiencing this many times, he did not have much expectations for these people, so he had long since isolated himself from them.
No matter what they said, others would just ignore them and not pay attention to them at all.
After all, apart from the demon king himself, no one else could hear what they said.
Inwardly shaking his head, the demon king continued to walk to the side.
The city did not look very big, and there were not many people living here. However, it was quite peaceful.
The surrounding cities were all invaded by demon beasts, but this city was an exception; not a single demon beast dared to come near.
This was because of the demon king's existence.
As the demon king, even though he could not affect all demon beasts, he could affect some nearby demon beasts.
It was quite easy to stop them from attacking the city.
Even though it was quite shameful for the demon king not to destroy the city and protect the residents, he had finally woken up and did not want to see a wasteland.
Even though the demon king represented negative faith energy, this did not mean that the demon king liked such things.
It was better to be natural.
After taking some biscuits from a stall, the demon king threw down two copper coins and prepared to leave.
"Hey, you don't have enough money!"
Behind him, the owner of the stall shouted.
The Demon King looked surprised. "Wasn't it two copper coins the last time I came?"
He was a little confused and a little surprised.
Could it be that someone was trying to extort him, the Demon King?
"That was the previous price."
The stall owner explained casually.
Because the demon beasts had invaded the city, there had been disasters everywhere. Food production had been destroyed, and the prices of all sorts of resources had risen.
Even though the city had not been destroyed, it had been affected, and prices had skyrocketed.
Hearing this, the Demon King nodded his head thoughtfully. He finally understood.
So it was his fault.
After throwing down two more copper coins, the demon king turned and left, heading to the next place.
Behind him, his followers were glaring angrily at the stall owner.
However, the demon king ignored them and turned to look in a certain direction.
At that moment, he seemed to sense something and gave a slight smile.
"The hero's candidate has appeared …"
He gave a slight smile as if he had thought of something interesting, "I wonder what the situation will be like this time."
As the demon king, to a certain extent, he and the hero's candidate were opposites.
Being in this small world at the same time, they would be able to sense each other's existence in some way.
This was the case.
When Ali had appeared in Chen Heng's territory, the demon king had sensed him.
Of course, what the demon king was most interested in was not this but another discovery.
"Aiya …"
He gave an interested smile and felt quite surprised, "The trial candidates are there as well.
It looks quite lively.
I'll go take a look as well. "
He clapped his hands and quickly made this decision.
Therefore, he started to move and walked in the direction he sensed.
Right now, Chen Heng did not know what was about to happen.
Sitting in his room, Chen Heng looked through the reports he had received.
It had been a few days since they had arrived.
Under Chen Heng's orders, the mercenaries he had hired had started to attack the demon beasts, clearing out the demon beasts that had invaded the refugees' territory.
During this process, Ali and Alissanda had played a huge role.
They were both very powerful, and the faith energy they had was even more terrifying than Chen Heng's.
Their massive faith energy ensured their own strength, and even though they were ordinary people, they were comparable to Great Knights.
Furthermore, they were not ordinary people. They were all elite warriors.
In battles that required battle power, the two of them naturally performed very well.
Basically, in every battle, the two of them were the ones with the most outstanding performance.
Chen Heng had obtained some information about the two of them.
Chen Heng was currently reading through them with great interest.
"Mm, very outstanding."
Chen Heng looked at the report in his hand and slowly flipped through it.
It recorded everything that Ali and the other had done during this period of time.
According to what he had seen, after Ali and the other had joined the mercenary group, they had always loved to help others. As long as others had a request, they would generously help.
Normally, they cared for their companions and restrained themselves. In battle, they fought valiantly and did not fear difficulties or danger.
Their performances could be said to be perfect.
In just a short period of time, the two of them had built up quite a bit of reputation in the mercenary group and had many supporters.
Chen Heng watched with great interest.
To be honest, to an ordinary person, this kind of behavior from these two people was really a sign of danger.
In just a few days, the two of them had won over people's hearts and gained such reputation. In the future, wouldn't they be able to win over others?
When that time came, Chen Heng would most likely be in danger.
If it was an ordinary person, they would feel quite fearful.
However, Chen Heng only watched and felt that it was quite interesting.
"Should I say that they are worthy of being heroes?"
Putting down the report, Chen Heng felt more and more certain about Ali's identity as a hero.
As for his performance, Chen Heng was no exception.
From how he saw it, a hero should have such a performance. To be able to achieve such a result in such a short period of time was quite normal.
If one did not have this kind of power and could not infect others in a short period of time, how could one shoulder the entire world's faith energy and challenge the demon king?
This kind of performance was normal.
After looking at the two of them, Chen Heng continued to take care of other matters before looking at other materials.
The material he was looking at was none other than the records of the awakening of the Demon King.
Even though he had confirmed his identity as a hero, Chen Heng still did not know how to leave this world.
According to the research of those unlucky seniors, if he wanted to leave this world, he would have to wait until the end of the demon king and the hero's story.
As such, if Chen Heng wanted to leave this world, he would have to wait until the demon king was defeated and the demon king was over.
However, this was just a general direction and a path that he could take as a reference.
As for how to do it, he had no idea.
Chen Heng could not be sure if those seniors had succeeded or not.
What he could be sure of was that many of those seniors had failed and had not been able to leave this place.
The magic skill books and the Kodo Beast's heart were proof of this.
If they had really left, would they have taken these things with them?
Evidently, they had not been able to leave, which was why they had been left behind.
As such, during this period of time, apart from looking at what Ali and Ali had done, Chen Heng had been looking into this matter.
However, it was not so easy to look into this matter.
The only reference he could find was the records of previous devil disasters in various places.
Most of the records were quite vague and did not have any clear records. In fact, even a true Sorcerer like him felt that the records were filled with magic.
For example, there was a record that said that the demon king had destroyed 3,000 worlds in a single day and devoured 3 trillion people …
All of these records caused Chen Heng's mouth to twitch.
Three Thousand Worlds …
However, among the many records, there was some valuable information that remained.
For example, there were records of heroes.
