Chapter 843

There was no doubt that the current Royal Capital could be said to be the safest and most dangerous place in the entire Omnippertansen.

That was because not only were all the leaders and well-known powerhouses of the human race gathered here, even the Protoss and Demons were about to descend here to participate in the Tri-Clan Talk.

Here, Legendary powerhouses that were rarely seen in the past had already gathered in a pile. The backbone combat power of various forces had also gathered here, causing a terrifying army to gather here.

For example, this time, not only did Harvey bring Lockett, who was a top Legendary powerhouse, but he also brought Capeline, who had a Holy Sword imitation and whose combat power was not much weaker than a Legendary powerhouse. Finally, he also brought some of the elites of the Empire's Knights. It could be said that he had brought the top combat power of the Empire to the Royal Capital.

Needless to say, Elise was naturally there. The Orc Priests were at her beck and call. Among them, there was Oz, who was a Legendary powerhouse, and Maffey, who was not far from the Legendary level. In addition to the rest of the Orc Priests, their combat power was not inferior to the elites brought by the king of a first-class country.

There was no need to mention Sophie. Not only was she a top Legendary-level Great Mage, Reiya and Niya were also Legendary-level Great Mages. She had also brought along the entire Elf Division of the Elven Race. Just this force alone was enough to destroy a large country.

Such a group of forces, a group of leaders, and a group of powerhouses were gathered in the current Royal Capital.

In addition to the upcoming Protoss and Demons, as well as the three Goddesses and six Demons, who were said to be the top combat power of the entire Omnippertansen, and even Lilith were here. During the Tri-Clan Talk, there would be more than ten Transcendent existences gathered in the Royal Capital.

Not to mention Shien. As a Hero, he was the protagonist of the Tri-Clan Talk. It was impossible for him not to be in the Royal Capital.

In this way, during the Tri-Clan Talk, the Royal Capital would be the place where the most terrifying group of powerhouses would gather in the entire Omnippertansen.

Attacking such a place?

Isn't that stupid?

That was what Capeline wanted to express.

But …

"If those guys were willing to seriously consider the problem of the gap in combat power, they wouldn't have chosen the path of destroying the peace." Sophie sighed and said, "Most of the Old Demons are paranoid and crazy, and will do anything to achieve their goals. Just like the former [Slaughterer Faction], they are also not very powerful. They don't even have a Legendary figure, but they still succeeded in disrupting the Royal Capital ten years ago and assassinating many high-ranking officials."

The implication was that it was impossible for the Old Demons to attack the Royal Capital head-on, but they would use any means.

"Their goal is to destroy the peace between the three races and return Omnippotanson to Chaos and Chaos. Therefore, they will not watch the talks between the three races proceed smoothly."

"Sophie 'voice gradually became more and more serious.

"I'm not saying this out of groundless fears, but there have been a lot of strange things happening in Tagore Forest recently."

"God"

When this word came out, everyone's expression froze, and they all looked at Sophie in unison.

"What's wrong?" Shien asked directly, "What happened?"

In the face of Sean's question and the gazes of everyone present, Sophie answered seriously.

"Someone is capturing monsters, and they're capturing them in large numbers."

Hearing Sophie's words, everyone frowned again.

"Is it that ritual again?"

Shien's expression began to turn cold.

He was naturally referring to the [Demon Refinement Ritual], the evil ritual to refine young Demon Dwellers.

But Sophie shook her head and denied it.

"No, it's not that ritual. We didn't find any traces of the ritual, and we didn't find any monsters going crazy," Sophie said. "We just found that some unknown people have been going in and out of Tagore Forest recently, and they've been fighting with a large number of monsters."

Saying that, Sophie glanced in Caroline's direction.

Seeing that, Caroline took over Sophie's words and explained the situation in the form of a report to everyone present.

"Under Her Majesty the Queen's command, we've investigated the places where there were obvious battles and huge movements, and we found very obvious traces of fighting between humans and monsters at the scene."

"There were also some severely damaged corpses at the scene, as well as body tissues that were obviously monsters, such as blood, scales, and so on."

"At first, we thought that it was just a group of human adventurers that entered Tagore Forest to hunt monsters, so we didn't pay too much attention to it."

"But similar situations happened more and more, and after identification, the corpses left at the scene were all Demons. The blood, scales, and other monster tissues also had very high magical activity, so it was very likely that they weren't defeated, but captured alive."

"Combining this situation, we finally determined that some unknown Demons have been going in and out of Tagore Forest recently, and they've captured a large number of monsters in Tagore Forest, but we don't know where they've been transported to."

Caroline's report caused everyone's hearts to sink.

It couldn't be helped.

After listening to this, everyone understood why Sophie was worried that the Old Demons would attack the capital on the day of the three-race meeting.

This was because all these situations showed that the Demons who were wantonly capturing monsters in Tagore Forest were not regular Demons, but the infamous Old Demons.

Why would the Old Demons be capturing ferocious monsters on a large scale?

The reason behind this was indeed frightening when one thought about it.

At this moment, Harvey suddenly spoke up.

"Speaking of which, I've also discovered something strange."

Harvey's words caused everyone present to be taken aback.

"Elder Brother, you mean …"

Capeline seemed to know what Harvey was about to say, and her pretty face instantly tensed up.

It wasn't just Capeline, but Lockett and Tilly also had solemn expressions.

"Something strange?" Lily could not remain silent on this topic in the end, and could not help but ask, "What is it? His Majesty Harvey? "

Shien also looked at Harvey.

Sensing Shien's gaze, Harvey was silent for a moment before he spoke.

"You should remember, Shien, right? On the day of the capital's upheaval, the former Imperial Concubine Mara had summoned a legendary monster called the Young Demon Dwellers, and a total of eleven of them. "

Of course, Shien remembered this.

He still remembered what Mara had said at the time, saying that she had borrowed twelve Young Demon Dwellers from the [Original Demons], and had even given one of them to the Lefferoot family.

The Young Demon Dweller given to the Lefferoot family was eventually killed by Shien.

However, the other eleven Young Demon Dwellers had dived underground and escaped after Mara was killed by Shien.

"During this time, the Empire has been looking for traces of these Young Demon Dwellers, trying to find them." Harvey's eyes flickered, "Because I have ordered the court mages in the palace to cooperate and use detection and tracking magic to search. Not long ago, the Empire did find some traces of them."

However …

"When we were about to find those Young Demon Dwellers, for some reason, those Young Demon Dwellers all disappeared, and we don't know where they went."

Capeline took over from Javis's words.

"You mean …"

Shien had a guess as to what Harvey and Capeline were going to say.

Sure enough …

"Just like the elves, we found traces of a battle between the young demon dwellers and something else." Harvey no longer hid it, "Previously, we thought that Saliro's group, who had defected, was unwilling to lose so easily, so they secretly took away these Young Demon Dwellers, preparing to use them against the Empire. Now, it seems that the person who did it is probably the Old Demons."

If that was the case, there was basically no doubt anymore.

"Capturing a large number of Demons, and then taking away such a dangerous group of monsters. If all this was done by the Old Demons, no one would be willing to believe that they had no purpose," Vivian murmured in a low voice.

Vivian murmured in a low voice, which just so happened to be what everyone was thinking.

Everyone knew very well that the only thing that could make the unscrupulous Old Demons go through so much trouble to prepare against was the upcoming Tri-Clan Talks.

"If the Old Demons send people to release the captured Demons and monsters into the Royal Capital during the Tri-Clan Talks, then …"

As Elise spoke, she began to tremble.

Many people also felt a chill in their hearts.

In terms of combat power, the Royal Capital during the Tri-Clan Talks would definitely not be weaker than these so-called Demons and monsters.

However, if such a group of Demons and monsters were to wreak havoc in the Royal Capital unscrupulously, one could imagine what kind of tragedy would befall the Royal Capital at that time.

The Royal Capital not only had great beings from all over the world, but also a group of ordinary people, a group of conscientious knights and soldiers.

Once such a Royal Capital was attacked by a large number of Demons and Legendary Demon Dwellers, there was an 80% chance that there would be heavy losses and great chaos.

At that time, if the Old Demons sneaked in to cause trouble, then the Royal Capital and the Tri-Clan Talks would basically be over.

And this was the purpose of the Old Demons.

"They just want to destroy the Tri-Clan Talks and not let the peace between the three races be maintained." Maffey said in a deep voice, "Once the Tri-Clan Talks are destroyed, the conflict between the three races that was intended to be eased will also be destroyed."

At that time, there would definitely be many voices among the Protoss, Demons, and humans who were unwilling to calm down.

Especially the Protoss and humans.

After all, the Old Demons were ultimately from the Demons.

Once there were heavy losses and great sacrifices, the Demons would inevitably be slandered by a group of indiscriminate existences who had always disliked the Demons and had no choice but to take responsibility.

In this regard, there would definitely be some voices of imbalance among the Demons.

If the Old Demons manipulated things a little more, guiding public opinion and creating some chaos, then the conflict between the three races would sooner or later become more and more intense until it could no longer be resolved.

If that happened, the so-called peace would only exist in name.

Everyone understood this.

"Those trash! They really can be seen coming out of nowhere to stir up trouble! "

Oz banged his fist, filled with righteous indignation.

"Everyone is doing their best to maintain the peace, so why can they destroy it whenever they want?"

Tilly was also somewhat resentful.

"This is the human heart."

Lockett said calmly.

"… In this world, there are actually people who treat misfortune as entertainment?"

Genom couldn't help but shudder.

As for Lily and Vivian, they had already fallen into silence as they looked at each other.

Reiya and Niya were the same. The two of them only stayed by Sophie's side, but their disgust for the Old Demons could be vaguely seen.

Shien didn't say anything more.

His disgust and disgust for the Old Demons had reached an unprecedented level.

"The most annoying thing in this world isn't the enemies and villains who go against you all the time, but the nobodies who don't know their own limits and keep causing trouble."

Shien sneered.

"I really want to send them all to hell."

This was probably what many people wanted to do the most.

It could be said that everyone present had encountered the Old Demons.

Harvey, Capeline, Lockett, Tilly, and the others had encountered Mara, who had a close relationship with the [Original Demon].

Elise, Oz, Maffey, and the others had encountered the Old Demons, [Mirage], which led to the destruction of Kosmos' main camp. The Temple of the Evil God that the orcs had guarded for a thousand years was also exposed because of their schemes.

Sophie, Reiya, Niya, Caroline, and the others had lived in the world for many years and lived in Tagore Forest. They had long since crossed swords with the [Original Demon], who had performed the [Demon Refinement Ritual] there many times. Genom might not have seen the Old Demons, but he had definitely heard of them.

Even Lily and Vivian had been involved with the [Slaughterer's Clique] before, whether it was the large-scale assassination in the capital ten years ago, or the incident at Lamigion half a year ago.

From this, it could be seen that the Old Demons were indeed the only remaining cancer cells in the Omnippertansen, the darkest side of this world.

They were a danger to the world.

They were a danger to peace.

Everyone could be killed.

Such a bunch of trash …

"Perhaps they will target you on the day of the meeting of the three tribes, Lord Hero."

Sophie reminded him solemnly.

That's right.

In the eyes of the Old Demons, Shien was definitely a thorn in their side.

There was no other reason than that Shien was a hero.

What was a hero?

A symbol of peace.

A symbol of power.

An existence that had killed the Demon King.

The natural enemy of the Demons.

How could the Old Demons not be hostile to Shien?

Not at all.

But …

"If they dare to come, then they will never be able to go back."

A sweet and moving voice that sounded like the sounds of nature resounded in the living room just like that.

"— —!"

Everyone was shocked. They all turned their heads and looked at the door.

There, the enchanting Demoness walked in holding the little girl's hand, imprinted in everyone's eyes.
