After lunch, the Finns sent their daughter Irene to take a nap. Everyone gathered in the living room to discuss the current situation.
"Although you may not believe me, I don't know the current situation of the demon king's army."
Eleena was the first to speak after preparing a cup of amber drink that looked like wheat tea for everyone.
"I believe you."
Xu Shenxing took a sip of the tea and rolled on the ground with his tongue sticking out. "If you really wanted to cause trouble, you wouldn't have surrendered to us so easily."
Lin Qianqian seemed to want to say something. Judging from her usual behavior, Xu Shenxing guessed that she probably wanted to express her opposition and say something inappropriate, just like the troublemaker in Mr. Jin's pen who always said "no, no, no," and said something inappropriate.
But since Eleena had just treated them to a sumptuous meal, even Lin Qianqian, who was as insensible as Lin Qianqian, merely pursed her lips and didn't say anything in the end.
"To be honest, I'm also very confused … The Great Demonic Realm was destroyed by you and your companions. It's unlikely that a new demon king would come to this world. The demons in this world also don't have any new demon kings, so I really don't know what's going on over there."
Eleena heaved a sigh of relief when she saw this, and then she slowly added.
"Is that so? Then we're in a state of confusion again …"
Yi Qing, who thought that things would take a turn for the better, couldn't help but sigh.
"Sorry to disappoint you." Eleena bowed slightly to the new hero and apologized.
"No, you don't need to apologize. It's not your fault."
Yi Qing replied hurriedly with a red face.
"Could it be that Yi Qing likes other people's wives …" Xia Xueyao, who was beside Yi Qing, seemed to have discovered the truth of the world and showed an extremely shocked expression.
"Idiot Yi Qing, I didn't expect you to be such a person …" Lin Qianqian also immediately showed a look of disdain.
"I say, this is someone else's house. Can't you pay attention to your image?"
Xu Shenxing was also helpless against these three guys who always started small drama all of a sudden.
Did the Frost Eagle Empire's mages really not summon the wrong person?
Fortunately, not everyone was pretending to be dumb. There were still characters who were seriously reading their lines and pushing the plot forward.
"If I'm not wrong, the formation of the Demonic King's Army might have something to do with the Church."
Finn, who seemed to be thinking about something from the beginning, ignored the new Hero and his happy companions and said with a solemn expression.
"Wasn't the Church destroyed long ago?" Xu Shenxing recalled his experience when he first came to this world and asked curiously, "I remember that when we came to this world, only half of the Church's Holy Mountain was left."
"That's right. At that time, because the Church controlled the Divine Power, it was a threat to the Demons. So the Holy Ground and several large settlements were the first to be destroyed by the Demonic King's Army." Finn nodded and began to explain to Xu Shenxing and the others, "But a centipede dies but never falls down. About ten years ago, the Church reappeared in this world. At that time, people were suffering from the torment of war and their hearts were empty. They were looking for spiritual sustenance. Plus, the Divine Power was quite effective in healing injuries, so the Church quickly rose again. And about five years ago, the entire force returned to its peak."
"It seems that someone from the destroyed Church escaped with the inheritance." Xu Shenxing licked his front paws, "But what does this have to do with the Demonic King's Army?"
"Originally, after Eleena's surrender, the Demons under the Demonic King's Army either left human territory and went to undeveloped desolate lands, or became humans and mixed in with the humans to make a living with their skills … But after the Church rose again, an organization called the 'Heresy Judgement Authority' began to search and kill the Demons mixed in with the humans."
Finn sighed, "Those lunatics are extremists. Even if the Demons have already laid down their weapons or have not harmed humans at all, once they are found, they will immediately be punished with all kinds of horrifying capital punishment. Compared to that, the basins and firecrackers you told us before are simply too weak. "
The blonde youth's face was grim, no longer the usual peace and gentleness when facing his daughter. "A large number of Demons died because of this. Although Eleena and I have organized several Demons to escape, and almost all of them were successful, compared to the Demons in the current human society, it is just a drop in the ocean … Every day, seeing their companions being executed, and not just the Demons, even their human wives and innocent children were not spared. They were all tragically killed. The remaining Demons naturally could not sit still. The prestigious Demons called for their companions to raise the flag of fifteen years ago, hoping to sweep the world again is not incomprehensible."
As soon as he finished, the entire living room fell into silence.
After a long while, Xu Shenxing said, "I understand … Yi Qing boy, have a good rest today. Tomorrow morning, we will go to the Church."
"Oh, okay!"
Yi Qing, who came back to his senses, hurriedly nodded. It seemed that he also wanted to confirm something. Then he reacted, "Are we not going today?"
"It is a little late, and this place is at the edge of the Empire. It should be quite a distance from the Church's stronghold, so a good rest is the right choice. After all, you spent a lot of energy on the previous journey. "
Xu Shenxing explained to him, and then looked at Finn.
The latter nodded knowingly and added to Xu Shenxing's words, "The Church's new Holy Mountain has been moved to Isomel, which is nearly a thousand kilometers away in a straight line from here."
"Then what is your real purpose?"
Lin Qianqian, who was watching coldly, suddenly asked.
"I have eaten enough black bread! At least for the next two days, I want to eat a good meal! "
"…"
Yi Qing's gaze, which was originally filled with admiration, suddenly became awkward.
Was it really okay to push back the great cause of salvation for a day for such a reason?
"Don't even think about it. I will not eat that kind of slime feast again!"
Lin Qianqian's face was pale, and she firmly refused. She seemed to recall the feeling of vomiting just now.
"Wait, I think Lin Qianqian is focusing on the wrong thing …"
The main point was not the slime feast, okay?
However, just as Xu Shenxing said, the new trio of Heroes had fought with a considerable number of monsters on their way here, so everyone was very tired. It was best to have enough time to rest and recover.
Even if they did not have any combat strength, Xu Shenxing alone could wipe out the entire demon king's army or the Church's army.
