"Bullsh * t." Vivian was concise, but the two Ebbens were confused. Bluphlei looked at Vivian in surprise. "How did you —"
"The Day of Return. I understand what you said." Vivian did not seem to be interested at all. Her tone was dismissive. "It's nothing more than the restoration of the power of the otherworldlings, the reappearance of the glorious dynasty established by the otherworldlings, the death of the demon hunters, and the Earth belongs to us. Ever since the demon hunters annihilated the last Satyr Kingdom more than 3,000 years ago, this kind of talk has never stopped. It pops up almost every 100 years. Look at the result? The Satyrs tried to recapture their mountains. Now there are only about a hundred of them left. The Lord of the Dead wants to rebuild his army. Now, there is almost no sign of the undead on the whole earth. Even the Lord of the Dead's skull has been smashed and fed to the dogs. Five hundred years ago, the werewolf tribe of Volm attacked the human church. On the third day, their elders appeared on the boots of the demon hunters — in the form of insoles and uppers. The worst was the cavemen. They tried to recapture their caves in the north, but as soon as they gathered, the Soviets conducted an underground nuclear test. Not even ashes were left. Basically, I was there every time or I got first-hand information from other sources. The revival of the Mythological Era? As long as the otherworldlings remain loose, there is no large-scale population recovery, and there is no major event that could lead to genocide among humans and demon hunters, there will never be a revival of the Mythological Era. Have you seen a nuclear bomb? Even the blood of the Satyrs can't withstand the radioactive dust. Let me tell you this, even if the demon hunters are really dead, humans are enough to deal with the otherworldlings as long as they calm down from the initial panic. These seemingly weak creatures are not as easy to deal with as you think. There are too many of them, and they are very good at blowing themselves and the world into pieces. "
In the end, Vivian said in a gloomy tone, "If worst comes to worst, the whole world will explode with nuclear bombs. Believe me, they dare to do it. I've seen more than one lunatic like that. Hitler was just one of them."
Not only the two Elder Ebbens, but even Hao Ren looked at Vivian in surprise. He had never seen the vampire maiden speak so quickly and eloquently. The content of her speech was quite intense. His impression of Vivian had always been that she was gentle and well-mannered. She was a well-mannered and well-mannered woman. However, from the moment the two Elder Ebbens came to visit, Vivian seemed a little out of sorts...
Perhaps this is the true personality of the Countess of the Crimson Moon? Was it her peaceful life that made her restrain her fierce side?
Bluphlei was stunned for a moment. His expression was very subtle. "I didn't expect this to come from a high-ranking Blood Clan. It's more like a demon hunter... Why are you so pessimistic? Are you satisfied with the current situation? Don't you want to get rid of the shadow of the demon hunters that shrouds the whole world? "
"Of course I want to. It's indeed a good thing to defeat the demon hunters, but I'm not as blindly optimistic as you guys," Vivian said with a smile. "I've lived much longer than you guys. Although many of my memories are blurred, I can still vaguely remember the time when humans wore animal skins and the most glorious days of the otherworldlings. From the Thunder Giants building Mount Olympus to the Sun Ship being blown up by the demon hunters' giant bows, I've seen it all. I've also witnessed the failure of the otherworldlings' counterattacks. So, a simple 'Day of Return' won't be much of a temptation to me unless you can show me more practical evidence... Do you really have any evidence?"
Bluphlei probably did not expect the Countess, who had always been known for being careless and eccentric, to say such weighty words. He was silent for a long time to organize his words. Finally, he looked up and said, "We really don't have anything that can be called 'evidence'. But after the sirens came ashore, they accurately predicted all the events in the past one or two hundred years, including the inexplicable decline of the demon hunters, the rise of several otherworldling races, and some anomalies related to the ocean. Under their guidance, we did recover a little bit of our strength back then. You know, the reason why the otherworldlings have declined to this extent is largely due to the decline of our strength. The cause of the large-scale decline thousands of years ago has not yet been identified, but it is certain that the otherworldlings on this planet have directly lost more than two-thirds of their strength. The more powerful the race, the weaker they became. More than half of the fiends were even directly banished into the space crevice. But now, the sequelae of this decline seem to be slowly 'recovering'... If it weren't for these actual phenomena, we wouldn't have been so hot-headed to believe in the Day of Return. Just like what you said, the several counterattacks in history have indeed failed. Now, the remaining ones are all smart people. "
"This is a little interesting... You mean the recovery of strength?" Vivian looked at Bluphlei with a burning gaze. "How much has it recovered?"
Hao Ren had heard about the Mythological Era and the Great Decline from Vivian before. But at that time, he only heard about it as a legend. In ancient times, the otherworldlings had established a mythical dark order. The 'gods' stood on the earth, and magic and nightmarish power shrouded the entire world. At that time, humans could only be 'sheep' that were casually reared by the otherworldlings. They lived on the primitive land and trembled in fear for the powerful rulers such as the Thunder Giants (although they were equally high and mighty, compared to other otherworldlings, they were considered very gentle rulers). The seemingly endless, dark, and desperate Mythological Era came to an end. In addition to the awakening of human intelligence and the activity of the demon hunters, another important reason was the Great Decline that permeated all otherworldling groups.
All otherworldlings, including werewolves, vampires, undead, and demons, no one could escape the Great Decline. It swept the world like a plague.
Now that he heard Bluphlei's explanation, Hao Ren realized that the Great Decline seemed to be much more serious than he had imagined.
"The degree of recovery..." Bluphlei paused for a moment before answering, "In fact, it's only a little bit, but it's a solid recovery. Some talents that we thought had been completely lost have reappeared in the newborns. Some characteristics can even only be found in the family's history books. The Ebben Family also has the first Dark Moon werewolf in thousands of years. This is the first case after the Great Decline. And those sirens had already predicted everything before all these abnormalities happened. You see, we have no choice but to believe it. "
"What about the decline of the demon hunters?" Vivian stared at Bluphlei. "The most important thing in the nagging prophecy of the Day of Return is' the continuous decline of those brutal lackeys'. This obviously refers to the demon hunters."
Bluphlei nodded and confirmed one thing: After the otherworldlings, it was now the demon hunters' turn to face their own plague.
"The number of demon hunters is decreasing," the werewolf elder couldn't hide his excitement. "If it weren't for the messenger's prompt and careful observation for more than a hundred years, I'm afraid no one would really notice this. The number of demon hunters has decreased by about 10% in the past 150 years. This is still an insignificant number at the moment, and it won't change the balance. But as long as this trend continues, their era will come to an end!"
"This is... the only good news." Vivian let out a long sigh.
Meanwhile, Hao Ren only thought of one thing at this time: The otherworldlings seemed to be really reviving! What about the humans?
"Are you really going to rebuild the Mythological Era?" Hao Ren tried to look calm and asked in a steady tone, "Go on the stage and declare war on the humans?"
The question was straightforward and powerful. Except for the two Ebbens, everyone else knew that Hao Ren was a human — at least according to the household register. Besides, Hao Ren had the existence of a 'true god' that no one knew about. Therefore, when the question was thrown out, even Vivian could not help but shrink behind the sofa. She felt that if the Day of Return really came true, it would not just be a matter between humans and the otherworldlings. Who knew if the goddess would be willing to see the balance on Earth broken?
They still did not know the standards of the Xi Ling Deities when they governed the world, so they could only imagine everything.
Hao Ren looked at the two Ebbens solemnly, quietly waiting for their answer. Their answer would directly determine whether Hao Ren's work report next week would be six words or six hundred words.
