Sealed Divine Throne

Chapter 796: Take The Initiative! An Army Of Sharp Knives (II)

Xiao Huo told Long Haochen that it would take some time for them to adapt to the external air and element fluctuations and decided to stay in the Knight’s Holy Mountain for three days, and then go to Yu Longguan to meet Long Haochen.

The army of the Devil’s clan might be deployed at any time. Long Haochen, as the president of the federation, couldn’t wait here all the time. The great plan of how to fight the Devil’s clan had not been decided yet. He must immediately return to Yu longguan to discuss countermeasures.

“Xiao Lao. You see we can’t predict where the Devils will attack. If the Devils concentrate on attacking at one point this time, it is not only difficult for us to resist, but also difficult to predict the location of the Devils. I have to get back as soon as possible, but the Devils have deployed all their strength this time. Our spies in the Devil clan have been wiped out on a large scale, and the news that can be sent back is very limited.” At the request of Xiao Huo, Long Haochen no longer called him ancestor, but Xiao Lao instead.

After listening to Long Haochen’s words, Xiao Huo meditated for a moment and said, “The problem you are talking about is indeed very serious. If you do not prepare in advance, it is impossible to stop any fortress in the Union in the face of an army of more than 50 Devil led by the Devil gods. However, I think your thoughts strayed.”

“Hmm?” Long Haochen looked at Xiao Huo with a surprised look and said, “Please instruct me.”

Although Xiao Huo had been sleeping for thousands of years, he was the first Knight Temple Master after all. At the most critical moment when mankind was facing the threat of Devil’s clan, he and several other temple masters were able to form a temple Alliance to compete with the Devil’s clan, and finally saved the last place for human existence, which showed how magnificent he was at that time. In terms of war experience, even ten Long Haochen couldn’t be compared with him.

Xiao Huo said, “You misunderstood the word of defense. If you change your way of thinking, you may be able to enlighten yourself. Yes, by defense only, it is difficult for us to stop the attack of the Devils. Because even if we know the movements of the Devils, but other army is still alive, what if they suddenly change the course of attack? Or suddenly split up? How do we defend ourselves? There can only be strenuous movements within the federation. In this case, the war has not yet begun, we have fully entered the rhythm of the Devil’s clan, it can be said that we lost to them by half before the war. Do you know why the Devils have never attacked us with all their strength before?”

After a pause, Xiao Huo said coldly, “That’s because the Devils don’t want to destroy us all. At that time, if the Devil’s clan really want to destroy us. Even if we set up the Temple Alliance and gather all the strength of mankind, we will not be able to compete with the Devil’s clan at all. In the end, the most important thing for us to survive is not that we are strong enough, but that the Devil’s clan did not intend to eliminate us.”

“In fact, the Devil’s clan does not dare to completely eliminate us from this world, or even does not want to completely rule us. To find out the reason, we need to find out the nature of the Devil’s clan.”

Long Haochen listened carefully to Xiao Huo. This ancestor completely experienced everything when the Devil’s clan first came to the Holy Demon Land, and he personally fought with the Devil’s clan’s army. His experience was very precious for Long Haochen.

“The space is broken and the 72 Devil Pillars arrived in this world. They brought us the terrifying plague to the Holy Land. At that time, mankind had just ended the war with the scourge of the undead, Electrolux, for more than 200 years. It was because of the horrors of the undead that there are already more than one fourth of the undead on the mainland, and we are gradually eliminating them and gradually unifying the mainland. At that time, the vitality of mankind was not only far from being restored, but at the same time, the two countries were busy fighting for territory.”

“The arrival of the 72 Devil Pillars of the Devil’s clan is only within one country and does not involve another country. At that time, the power of the splendid Vatican had been weakened to a very low level because it was hit by the scourge of the undead, Electrolux. As a result, there is no unified voice within the whole continent. Here we have to talk about the disaster that Electrolux has brought to mankind. He completely destroyed one of the three empires, weakened one, and almost destroyed the splendor of the Vatican. This gives the Devil a chance!”

“Seventy two Devil Pillars have fallen in that almost intact country, and although they have also been affected by the scourge of the undead, their strength is relatively intact. At that time, the stronger country was aggressively waging war against the crippled country, trying to invade it and unify the whole continent. When the 72 Devil Pillars first came, they were even considered by the weaker country to be blessed by Heaven. It is conceivable that how could these two empires work together?”

“Even the big country with the Devil Pillars failed to take the existence of the Pillar seriously at the beginning. It was not until the plague spread at an astonishing speed that it turned all races into Devils, and began to attack and occupy cities, showing the horrors of 72 Devil Pillars. But by then it was too late. In addition, the weak country took advantage of this opportunity to launch a counter-offensive in an all-round way. It can be said that human beings themselves destroyed themselves, and under the internal and external attacks, they destroyed the most powerful empire of mankind at that time. By the time the weaker country discovered the horror of the Devil’s clan, it was already too late. The Devil’s clan had become bigger and not only occupied the whole area of the big country, but also began to launch a strong attack on the small country.”

Even after thousands of years have passed, Xiao Huo said with a sad look, “And at such a critical moment, there are still differences among small countries. They were divided into two factions, blaming each other, which led to the division of the country at a critical moment. Under the attack of the Devils, the country gradually collapsed and perished. At this time, one of them was alert and began to summon the remaining strong men of mankind to unite with the outside world, break away from the concept of the state, avoid the impact of the desire for power on mankind, and form six temples to compete with the Devils.”

“There are two reasons why the Devil’s clan finally let the human race go. First of all, the plague caused by the 72 Devil Pillars did not last for long. So that it did not continue to infect more races into Devils. As a result, the total strength of the Devil’s clan was limited to a certain extent. It also made the God of Devils realize that if he continued to fight, the number of Devils would only continue to plummet. Another reason is that the Devil’s clan had not launched an all-out attack on us for more than 6,000 years, which is because the Devil’s clan itself is unable to make any products.”

“Almost every race of the Devil’s clan is a born warrior, born with a strong fighting capacity. However, they are not good at producing food and making utensils. This determines that they may have the upper hand in the war in a short period of time, but once the war is over and mankind is really completely destroyed, the demons will only gradually disappear from the Holy Land. The demons who will survive in the end will be only a small part and live a life of relying on the forces of nature to provide food.”

“If you think about it, as a wise ruler, would the God of Devils kill the goose that lays the golden eggs? They keep us alive, which is tantamount to keeping us in captivity. Then plunder us through small-scale wars, and even trade with us. At the same time, it is also self-development, looking for a way to survive on this continent. This is the fundamental reason why we human beings can still survive.”

“Fortunately, for 6,000 years, the Devils have never been able to find the possibility that they can survive on their own. That’s why we haven’t been wiped out. Otherwise, do you think the Devils will be so kind?”

Xiao Huo’s words were like an open door for Long Haochen. It made him realize a lot of fundamental things. No wonder the Devils even launched holy war in that way of full-scale attack, consuming their own and human population and strength at the same time. In the end, it ended the war briefly. They never intended to destroy mankind completely!

“The Devil’s clan is about to launch an all-out battle, mainly aiming at you. Because you have the power to destroy the Devil Pillars, thus causing the panic to the Devil’s clan. What they fear most is being shaken. The two Pillars are not many, but that is a very bad start. Otherwise, the God of Devils would not have insisted on killing you. However, I am sure that even if the Devils successfully enter the Union, they will not try their best to destroy the living space within the Union. And even eventually withdraw. Of course, a big looting is inevitable. It’s like the wheat that has been raised is about to be harvested.”

Xiao Huo’s analysis could be said to be thorough, and if Long Haochen had not clearly known that he had been sleeping in the cave, he would have been regarded as the wisest elder of the Temple Alliance.

At this point, Xiao Huo paused for a moment, a golden light flashed in his eyes, and said in a deep voice, “We must avoid this disaster. Once our human vitality is seriously damaged again, then the accumulation of thousands of years will be wiped out. This will only repeat the process of being kept in captivity again. It may never be turned around. So, in any case, we can’t let the Devils invade the Union. As I said just now, there is something wrong with your way of thinking, which lies in the word ‘defense’. If you think about it on the other hand, if it is not defense, but offense, how will we face the demons?”

“Offense?” Long Haochen only felt as if the bottleneck in his heart had been pierced through by a sharp arrow, and the inspiration appeared instantly. Although it was still a little vague, he understood something serious.
