Now, the Hundred Herb Tower was destined to be closed. What infuriated Ye Ling the most was that from the nine-colored deer's attitude, it was clear that it would not be open to them no matter what.
On the other hand, although the poison in Yan Guilai's body had been cleansed, he had been poisoned for too long. It was very likely that his brain had been damaged and he had lost all his memories.
As a result, all the resources he had promised — gold, silver, and bronze — could not be provided.
With the combination of the two, the loss was too great. It was so great that Ye Ling could not bear it.
After all, with the corruption of the Great Chu royalty, the military had not received any military funding for ten years. The seven million soldiers of the Seven Great Generals and Shui Liu Xiang's one million soldiers were all in tatters.
At most, after another great battle, these armors and weapons would definitely fall apart. At that time, were the humans supposed to wave their fists and fight the demons?
The reason why humans could fight against the demons was because of alchemy and weapon refinement.
Among them, alchemy could rapidly increase the realm and strength of human ancient martial art practitioners, providing an endless stream of soldiers for the human army.
As for weapon refinement, it could be used to refine sharp weapons and sturdy armor for the human soldiers so that they could contend against the incomparably tyrannical battle power of the monstrous beast army.
If the humans did not use weapons or armor and went into battle bare-chested against the demons, there was no doubt that the human army would not be able to defend against the demons' attacks. Their own attacks would also not be able to break through the demons' defenses.
As a result, there was almost no other possibility for the humans to fight against the demons except to be tortured and killed.
But now, the Hundred Herb Tower was permanently closed to humans. Not to mention that the humans did not have many alchemists, even if all of them were Grade Nine alchemists, so what?
At the same time, Yan Guilai was also unconscious. There was no hope for the resources he had promised. The human army's equipment could not be changed. Once the war started again, the humans would definitely be defeated! They had completely lost the ability to resist.
If it had been a hundred years ago, the humans could have asked the Abyss Clan for help. But now, the Abyss Clan could not even take care of the humans.
More than a hundred years ago, three years after Chu Xingyun left the Universe World, the Abyss Race, the Demon Ant Race, and the Demon Spirit Race launched a campaign to unify the Abyss World.
Originally, everyone thought that it would take at most ten years to unify the entire Abyss.
However, in fact, the Abyss was far more dangerous than everyone had judged. Not to mention 10 years, even 100 years had passed, but the Abyss was still not unified.
The Abyss had already formed two major races.
The largest group was led by the Demonic Ant Emperor, who commanded hundreds of races to form the Demonic Ant Army.
The second largest clan was a single clan — the Fei Ming Clan!
Speaking of cockroaches, perhaps most people did not know what they were. To put it bluntly, cockroaches were cockroaches!
The ancients said that if you found a cockroach in your home, it was very likely that there were tens of thousands of cockroaches in your home.
Although many people doubted this saying and felt that this saying was too exaggerated, in fact, this kind of situation was common.
The reproduction speed of cockroaches was very terrifying. Once conceived, they could lay eggs for life.
In theory, in an absolutely ideal situation, a pair of cockroaches could reproduce twenty thousand cockroaches a year later. If half of them were male and the other half were female, as long as the environment was suitable and the conditions allowed, then ten thousand pairs of cockroaches could reproduce two hundred million cockroaches a year later!
A pair of cockroaches, in an ideal situation, could reproduce ten thousand pairs a year later, a hundred million pairs two years later, and a trillion pairs three years later! This was the terrifying reproduction ability of cockroaches.
Of course, under normal circumstances, such a situation was impossible.
After all, cockroaches needed the environment and conditions to reproduce, as well as a large amount of food.
However, the problem now was that the Abyss World was not normal in the past hundred years, and it was extremely abnormal.
In order to unify the entire Abyss World, the Demonic Ant Emperor had spread the flames of war throughout the Abyss World for the past hundred years. Every moment, every minute, and even every second, tens of thousands of Abyss creatures died in battle.
Billions of Abyss Zergs died, and their corpses piled up like mountains. This provided the best opportunity for the cockroach race to develop.
In the past hundred years, the number of beetles that died in battle every year in the crust of the entire Universe World was so large that it was impossible to calculate. Even if one tried to calculate it forcefully, it would definitely be a shocking number.
The corpses of the beetles that died in battle became an inexhaustible source of food for the Cockroach race. Hence … after a hundred years of development, the number of Cockroaches was really impossible to calculate. It was a terrifying number that was measured in trillions.
When the race developed to a certain scale, food became the biggest problem. In order to fill their stomachs, the Cockroach race had no choice but to wage war against the Demonic Ant race that had unified the hundred Abyss Worlds.
Under the intense resistance, tens of millions of Abyss beetles died every day, every hour, every minute, and every second. Regardless of whether it was the corpses of the Cockroaches or the Demonic Ant army, they would once again become resources for the Cockroaches to breed more cockroaches.
Hence, in order to fight against the Cockroach race, the Abyss army was already badly battered. They could not even spare a single soldier. Even if the human race was exterminated, they could only resign themselves to fate.
If the Cockroach race was not blocked in the Abyss World, once the Cockroach race stepped onto the surface, it would be the real doomsday.
On the surface, all the humans, all the demons, all the demon beasts, and even all the plants would become the targets of the Cockroach race.
Hence, in order to protect the Universe World, the life and death of the human race was not that important. It did not matter even if the race was exterminated. After all, this was only a branch of the human race.
What drove Ye Ling crazy was that once the human race could not resist the Demon army, they would not even have a place to retreat.
Even the Abyss World could no longer protect the safety of the human race. They could die in the mouths of the Cockroach race at any time and become food for the Cockroach race to reproduce.
Once the human race was exterminated, other than a few thousand or at most tens of thousands of nobles who could leave the Universe World through the teleportation spirit array, everyone would die. There was not an inch of land in the entire Universe World that could accommodate humans.
It had to be known that at this moment, there were still more than ten billion humans living in the southern states. The life and death of so many people depended on the protection of the Seven Great Generals of the human race.
However, while they were resisting with all their might, the imperial family of the Chu Dynasty was causing havoc again and again.
Now, the Primordial Pagoda was permanently closed to humans. Yan Guilai, who could take out a large number of resources, had also been plotted against by the Great Chu royalty. His life and death were unknown, and the promised resources were probably impossible to obtain.
Faced with such a desperate situation, how could Ye Ling not break down and go crazy!
It should be known that after today's incident, the last glimmer of hope for the Human Race was almost extinguished.
More than ten billion humans in the Universe World had already entered the countdown to death. The next attack of the Demon Race would be the day of the Universe World's extinction.
