The words of the disabled God's Punishment Warrior made everyone frown involuntarily.
"The enemy is fighting two wars at the same time, and the other side is their main battlefield?"
If what Roland said was true, that only a small portion of the demons had fought against humans in the previous Battles of Divine Will, then the situation that had been relatively clear suddenly became a little less optimistic.
Based on what he saw in the Divine Realm, there were a total of four competitors in the huge painting. Excluding the underground civilization that had been removed from the list, Roland speculated that the so-called "Sky-sea Realm" was most likely referring to the last and most mysterious painting, the deep-sea eyeball.
Could it be that after the enemy seized the relics of the underground civilization, they fought with the monsters in the sea, and at the same time had the strength to suppress the humans in the Land of Dawn?
If that was the case, then the Senior Demon's contempt for witches was not groundless.
As for ordinary people without magic power, they were probably no different from weeds on the roadside.
Of course, he also knew that the demon would not honestly tell him everything it knew. From the fact that it insisted on killing its way into the artillery position alone, to covering up its thoughts and using the Mind Resonance ability to occupy Zoey's body, it was obvious that even in a desperate situation, it did not give up on the idea of attacking. In a situation where there was no way to tell if it was lying, it was hard to guarantee that the demon was not deliberately bluffing and deliberately trying to cause panic among the humans.
Looking at the solemn faces of the people, Roland knew that he had to get the situation back under control.
So he shrugged and pretended to be relaxed and looked at Elric.
"So... this is the real demon?"
Elric also reacted. "Although I don't know what method Zoey used, I don't think she would say such a thing. "
"Good job. You saved me a nap." Roland nodded at Zoey. "You can eat whatever you want in the Dream World tonight."
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Zoey could not help but smile, but soon her expression returned to normal. "Unfortunately, this demon is already familiar with human perception. Although it can't control its limbs, it can't really read its mind through the Mind Resonance."
"It's not your fault. After all, no one has ever deeply encountered a Senior Demon before. It's normal to make a mistake based on human experience."
"Devil? You still use this ridiculous name, "Kabradhabi said disdainfully." You classify all races that are different from you as horrible and evil, but you don't know that you are the insignificant inferior barbarians. However, your good luck ends here. The day the Origin of Mana reappears will be the day of your demise! "
Everyone couldn't help but look at each other. This last sentence really sounded like something from the legends.
"The Origin of Magic you mentioned … Do you mean the Bloody Moon?" asked Roland.
"You only see the surface of everything. That's the style of you reptiles." The Senior Demon did not comment.
"Could it be that the red sphere is made of magic?" Agatha interrupted, "But it doesn't make sense. I've seen the Crimson Moon with my own eyes. No matter what it is, it's thousands of miles away from this world. You clearly said that the final Ascendant will open the path to the Origin of Magic. Is there a staircase that leads to the sky? "
"Humph." Kabradhabi turned his head away. Apparently, he didn't want to explain.
"Where is the Sky-sea Realm?"
There was no response.
"Did you destroy the underground civilization?"
Silence.
"Your new technology — I mean, those deformed demons that can launch black stone pillars — is the inheritance of the underground civilization?"
"Save your energy, bug." Kabradhabi finally spoke. "I've told you everything I can. As for what I can't say, even if this female …" He glanced at Zoey and paused for a moment. "I won't say a word! If you want to kill me, do it quickly. But sooner or later, you'll all be killed by the Sky Lord Hackzord, and I, Kabradhabi, will be reborn in the Origin of Magic! "
Obviously, the interrogation had reached a bottleneck. However, since the Senior Demon had been transferred to the body of the God's Punishment Army, it meant that Neverwinter didn't have to rush. If he handed it over to the Taquila witches, they would find a way to make it spit out more information.
Thinking of this, Roland spread out his hands and said, "Since you don't want to talk about these sensitive things, let's change the topic. If this war is just a trivial setback for you, how powerful are you? What about the army of the Sky-sea Realm? How are they compared to you? And the Sky Lord you just mentioned, can he compete with the Transcendents? I think these questions have nothing to do with secrets, right? "
Roland knew that Kabradhabi wouldn't be able to resist this perfect opportunity to boast.
"Oh, bugs..." Kabradhabi said in a loud voice, "I can only say that we're far more powerful than you can imagine! Do you know why you're reptiles? Because the difference between an advanced race and an ignorant race is like the difference between a bird and a bug. This is determined by the nature of magic power. At the border between the end of the continent and the Sky-sea Realm, our army blots out the sky and the sun. Our movements are enough to intimidate the mountains. If the enemies of the Sky-sea Realm weren't equally powerful, you wouldn't have survived until now! "
It paused and said, "As for the Transcendents you mentioned, if you're referring to the strongest females, they could indeed compete with the grand lords. But now, the Sky Lord has improved his control of magic power and has the vigilance and acumen of a commander. In a battle like this, he can drain your blood all by himself! Bugs, when you hear his name in the future, kneel down and beg for mercy — at least he'll let you die a quick death! "
Roland automatically blocked out the series of exaggerated words. He noticed a few hidden details — the demons' logistics were the greatest weakness of this race. They couldn't move an inch outside of the Red Mist. If they wanted to support a large army, they had to fight within the influence of the Black Stone Obelisk.
To be able to fight the demons in the Red Mist and even hold up the main force of the demons meant that the deep-sea monsters weren't as simple as they claimed. Using the phrase "equally powerful" to gloss over it undoubtedly meant that they didn't want to talk about it — this attitude was a statement in itself.
In addition, they didn't treat the enemies of the Sky-sea Realm as reptiles, which meant that the deep-sea monsters had also been "upgraded." But there was only one eliminated competitor, which obviously didn't match their initial conjecture. Thinking back, the demons didn't clearly state that they were the ones who eliminated the eliminated civilizations. They only mentioned that only the races that could go to the Sky-sea Realm were qualified to obtain the inheritance. There should be some other unforeseen circumstances.
Seeing that the Senior Demon was still boasting about the unparalleled power of their race, Roland interrupted it.
"In fact, you don't understand what true power means at all."
"You —" Kabradhabi's face suddenly darkened. "Bug, what do you know?"
"A true expert doesn't do it to make the world darker, but to disperse the fog with their own strength. When the world is about to collapse, they even burn their own souls to bring light and heat to all things … just like the sun. "
"What … are you trying to say?"
"It's simple." Roland cleared his throat. "Since you're so powerful, why don't you light the fire?"
