For a time, none of the existences with extraordinary backgrounds present here were able to speak.
They had just obtained a piece of good news, and it was a time to celebrate. Cheers and various noises could be heard from time to time outside. However, not only did they not feel any joy, but their mood was also very heavy.
This was something that could not be helped.
Compared to the return of the Beastmen, where the captives were rescued and brought back, the news that Shien brought back was undoubtedly worse.
The enemy had two more Transcendent Level experts, and they were not ordinary people either. They were brave warriors who had created many miracles and achievements. Such enemies could not be ignored.
In addition to the mysterious demon dweller and the Great Spirit Body that could control Necromancy, the enemy now had a total of four Transcendent Level experts, and all of them were demon dwellers.
This level of combat power was no weaker than the kingdom that had lost the support of the Demons and most of the Protoss.
Before this, the new [Original Devil] only had an absolute advantage in terms of combat power at the bottom level. Compared to this side, the higher-level combat power was still inferior.
But now, this disadvantage seemed to have been made up for.
"This is their true trump card, the reason why they dare to start a war?"
Rosie murmured, expressing the heaviness in everyone's heart.
Lidas and Anima temporarily suppressed their intense emotions, looked at each other, and then looked at Shien.
"Tell us about the two brave warriors first," said Lidas, "What is their fighting style? What is their unique skill? "
"Let's determine the identity of the two." Anima also said, "Although we have some guesses that only those two can be awakened by Necromancy, it's better to confirm it again."
Hearing this, Shien naturally had no reason to refuse.
And so, Shien told Lidas and Anima about the two brave warriors that he had fought against.
Lidas and Anima listened to Shien's explanation carefully, and finally nodded with a grim expression.
"Just as we guessed."
"It really is them."
Lidas and Anima knew the identity of the other party.
"What kind of two brave warriors are they? Goddess Lidas? Goddess Anima? "
Rosie couldn't help but ask.
Elise also pricked up her ears and paid close attention.
Shien was no exception. He stared at the two goddesses and waited for them to explain.
Lidas and Anima pondered for a while, then began to explain.
"First, we can tell you that, excluding Shien, in Mithra a thousand years ago, the Omnippertansen had welcomed a total of 108 brave warriors."
Lidas said.
"108?" Sean raised his eyebrows and said in surprise, "So many?"
"Of course." Anima nodded and said, "When the first Hero was summoned to Omni Potanson, there were only the Demon King and the Supreme God in this world, so the history of the Hero can be traced back a long, long time ago. At that time, even Lidas had not been born yet."
Lidas was the closest to the omnipotent Goddess of Fate. Apart from the Demon King and the Supreme God, she was the first life that was truly born in this world.
The brave warriors came from another world, so they weren't native to this world.
The Demon King and Supreme God were born from nothingness, even before this world was born.
Therefore, the first brave warrior was the first living being to be born in this world other than the Demon King and Supreme God, but he wasn't born in this world.
Strictly speaking, Lidas was the first living being to be born in this world, the beginning of all native living beings.
"But when I was born, the first brave warrior had already passed away, and the second brave warrior was summoned after me." Lidas said. "After that, every few hundred years, the Omnippertansen would welcome a brave warrior, until Mithra appeared and defeated the Demon King. The summoning was sealed by the Matriarch, and the brave warriors became part of the Omnippertansen's history."
Mithra was the 108th brave warrior, as well as the last brave warrior in this world other than Shien.
Then …
"Among the hundred and eight heroes, including Mithra, only seven of them managed to transcend and enter the Transcendent Realm, becoming Transcendent Level existences."
Anima's explanation caused Shien and the others to mutter.
"Seven?"
Rosie blinked her eyes.
"That's … quite a lot."
Elise was a little surprised.
In response, Lidas and Anima smiled bitterly.
"I have to say, the brave warriors are indeed special. Not only can they transcend by themselves, but the number of brave warriors who successfully transcended isn't a lot compared to the total number of brave warriors that have been born so far. Even so, there are still seven of them who successfully transcended. If all of them were added up, it would be more than the number of transcendent experts from either the Protoss or the Demons."
Lidas sighed.
"This is the inconceivable part of the brave warriors."
Anima sighed as well.
Rosie and Elise immediately looked at Shien.
Shien rubbed his nose. As the current brave warrior, he didn't know how to react.
Lidas and Anima didn't care about Shien's awkwardness and continued speaking.
"Unfortunately, those seven powerful Brave Ones still passed away in the end."
"Yeah."
Both Lidas and Anima felt a little sad.
In response, Shien spoke up.
"They've already reached the transcendent realm, how could they die so easily?"
This was something Shien didn't understand.
After attaining Transcendence, no matter how strong Lidas was, or how weak Anima and Nadia were, their lives were never in danger.
Logically speaking, after reaching the transcendent realm, even if they couldn't win, they could still escape. It was extremely difficult to be killed. As such, no matter if it was the three goddesses or the six demons, none of them died. They had survived for tens of thousands of years.
In the end, the brave warriors died one after another. This made Shien a little confused.
If it were the brave warriors who hadn't reached the transcendent realm, it wouldn't be a surprise if they died on the battlefield due to their lack of strength.
However, a total of seven Transcendent Braves had died one after another. It was impossible for Sean not to feel puzzled about this.
Of course, under special circumstances, it wasn't impossible to kill a Transcendent Level existence.
For example, when Shien was in the Inner Plane, if he was forced to a dead end by the two brave warriors, he wouldn't be able to escape. That was because it was a crack in the world. Even if he escaped to the other side, he would still be easily caught.
There was also Helimis's situation. He was besieged by multiple Transcendent Level existences. Even if he managed to escape in the end, he was still poisoned by Kamina and died.
Transcendent beings were difficult to kill, but it didn't mean that they couldn't be killed.
However, a total of seven brave warriors died. On the other hand, the transcendent beings were still alive and well. This was ridiculous.
After reaching the transcendent realm, even one's lifespan would increase. At the very least, with the goddesses who were good at using various miracles, it should be easy to extend one's lifespan and slow down one's aging, right?
In other words, other than being killed, it was extremely difficult for a transcendent warrior to die of old age.
In that case, how did the seven powerful heroes die?
Shien was very confused about this.
In fact, Shien had subconsciously forgotten about it.
"… No matter how strong the transcendent warriors are, they are still very weak in front of the Demon King."
Anima was silent for a long while, then said this with a bitter smile.
These words successfully made Shien realize something.
"Right, the brave warriors' mission is to defeat the Demon King and save the world. Since they have successfully transcended, they will definitely challenge the Demon King, right?"
In other words, the brave warriors were all killed by the Demon King.
Even if they reached the transcendent realm and wielded the transformed holy sword, they would still be powerless against the Demon King.
Mithra was the proof of this.
After he transcended, he became the strongest brave warrior on par with the Goddess of Destiny. However, he still needed the help of the Supreme Goddess Omnys to successfully pierce the Demon King's heart with the holy sword and kill the Demon King.
Even so, Mithra still suffered from the counterattack of the Demon King's power before his death. In the end, he suffered irrecoverable injuries. As his death approached, he sacrificed himself to the holy sword, allowing it to remain in this world.
If even Mithra ended up like this, one could imagine what would happen to the other brave warriors after they challenged the Demon King.
It was impossible for them not to die.
That was the truth.
Only the Demon King would be able to kill the Hero even after he had transcended.
However …
"The Demon King's power is something that even we, the Supreme Goddess, are helpless against. No miracles will work in front of this power."
Lydas suddenly said.
"Just like Mithra, he was injured by the Demon King's power. In the end, not to mention us, even the Supreme Goddess was unable to heal his injuries. In the end, he could only die."
Just like that, the brave warriors who were killed by the Demon King's power also had no way to reverse their deaths.
Although forbidden magic like Necromancy was amazing, it was definitely not stronger than the Demon King's power. It could not awaken the brave warriors who were killed by the Demon King.
Unless, that brave warrior did not die at the hands of the Demon King.
"In history, there were a total of seven transcendent brave warriors. Two of them did not die at the hands of the Demon King."
Lydas finally mentioned this.
"Two?"
Shien, Rosie, and Elise were all shocked.
Needless to say, those two brave souls were awakened by necromancy magic.
Lydas and Anima had already guessed it, but only now did they reveal their identities.
"These two, one is the 18th generation brave warrior, the other is the 72nd generation brave warrior."
"The 18th generation brave warrior is called Reinat. His unique skill [Divine Power Penetration] can penetrate all external matter and power, directly injuring the weak internal parts of the body. Even a Demon Dweller would be heavily injured if it was hit head-on."
"The 72nd generation brave warrior is called Philip. His unique skill [Random Transformation] can turn his body into any flowing element. He can break free from any environment and won't be harmed by any power. He can be said to be an undying existence."
Anima revealed the names of the two brave warriors to Shien.
Their abilities matched the two Undead Knights in Shien's memory.
Of the two Knights who fought against Shien in the world, the Black Knight's attacks constantly shook his internal organs, while the White Knight turned into wind, fire, rain, clouds, and other flowing elements at will, avoiding Shien's attacks again and again, escaping from Shien's sight.
Now, their identities were revealed.
Hero Reinat.
Hero Philip.
These were the identities of the two brave warriors who were awakened.
