Volume 5: The Cataclysm Chapter 69: Redemption (I)
Central Fernando.
In the vast green sea, the gate from the abyss stands proudly in the east of the Supreme Jungle.
A river of blood from the abyss is slowly flowing into this land.
Thousands of druids gathered on the eastern defense line. They followed the archdruids of the Migratory Bird Council and prepared for this battle seriously.
A large number of demons are taking boats from the Abyss, crossing the Blood River and arriving in Fenan.
The sky was almost gray, not much different from night - ever since the death of the star beast, its corpse had been lying across the sky of Fenan, blocking a lot of sunlight.
The weather is gloomy, just like the mood of the residents of the High Jungle.
The Demon Gate appeared half a month ago. It was an offensive against Fenan launched by a famous Abyss Lord.
Because the cosmic magic pool has collapsed, when the laws of space and time are gradually restored, those powerful beings can easily approach Fenan.
One after another, the gods have arrived.
Most of them were concentrated in the north and west, and they began to open up places for missionary work. The three towns in the north were the most important. Although the whereabouts of the Valkyrie Eve were unknown, the God of Morning Light and Guardian still held on to this land and began to build it prosperously.
The rest of the gods were no different. They began to descend in person to Fenan, their powerful divine nature making it difficult for mortals to raise the heart of resistance.
Except for a few forces that possess the spark of order, the fire of God has ignited every corner of Fenan.
However, the High Jungle and the Migratory Bird Council are not included.
After a failed negotiation, this group of stubborn descendants of the ancient gods of nature did not accept the "good intentions" of any god. They resolutely protected their own land and did not accept any missionary requests from any god.
So the battle took place.
The demon army attacked, and the gods watched coldly.
The warlocks from the northern Principality of Lavis watched as thousands of demons were carried out of the blood river, but were unable to stop it. They couldn't help feeling sad: times have changed after all.
The age of gods has finally arrived.
No matter how much they were unwilling to admit it, even the strongest forces in Fenan could only barely protect themselves.
So far, no god has directly waged war against these forces, but has openly declared that these places are not under their protection.
The result is that when creatures from other planes prepare to invade Fenan, they often choose these local forces of Fenan.
This is also something that cannot be avoided.
Even the most belligerent demon knows to pick on the weak.
So they chose the High Jungle.
There are only a few Fenan forces still holding on. The White River Valley, which was originally the most anticipated, has become panic-stricken because of the departure of Lord Marvin half a month ago. It is already very difficult for Acting Lord Constantine to rely on the refuge to barely keep the territory from chaos under the pressure of the gods. It is obviously impossible to send people to support the Supreme Jungle. The three sisters of Stone Mountain were also plotted against by the twin goddesses, but at the moment before the other party's conspiracy succeeded, Luo Rui's wisdom talent suddenly advanced, and he saw the content of the conspiracy in advance and was finally able to avoid it calmly. However, despite this, the current situation of Stone Mountain is also a mess.
The attitudes of the elves, ancient goblins and vampires are relatively ambiguous.
The high elves led by Die have not made any movement since they landed in Gem Bay, but this is obviously not a move to show weakness, but a wait-and-see attitude; Ibrahimovic, the great elf king of Thousand Leaves Forest, wanted to help, but was persuaded by a letter from the high elves. As for the content of the letter, there is no way of knowing; the ancient goblins and vampires, the former have just returned to Fenan and just want to stand firm on their own territory. Although the Demon Gate is not far from their central mountain range, they claim that the floating city can withstand all attacks, so they just watch from the sidelines; the vampires have been moving strangely since the return of their ancestor Yin, and they rarely start collective action, as if they are searching for something.
So now, when the Migratory Bird Council began to seek help from its allies, it was shocked to find that the only one who could lend a helping hand was the Principality of Lavis, which was located in the north of the Central Mountains. Daniela sent a group of warlocks to support them, but although these warlocks were powerful, they were nothing compared to the tens of thousands of demons.
…
The Migratory Bird Parliament has done a lot of work on the frontal battlefield that the two sides are about to engage in.
On one of the bridgeheads, the old tree man looked into the distance with a serious look.
"I'm sorry... I failed in the mission to destroy the demon gate."
The Archdruid Skyfury lowered his head slightly, feeling a little ashamed.
Standing next to him was Shadow Thief Owl. Because of the special relationship with the Principality of Lavis, this old legend also participated in this mission.
However, they were always short of manpower, and the abilities of Sky's Wrath and Shadow Thief Owl were not enough to destroy the Demon Gate that the Great Demon Lord had worked so hard to build.
"It doesn't matter, this is our destiny."
The old tree man said silently: "Perhaps if the people from the Seven Orders of the Old Alliance were here, the result would be different."
The people behind him were also silent.
Ever since the advent of the gods, Inheim, who once hunted down the Shadow Prince, has been put on the gods' blacklist and has been hunted down day and night; and the members of the Seven Orders of the Old Alliance are currently hiding from the gods' joint hunt together with Inheim.
The legends on the list also include top masters such as Professor Red Copper Dragon and swordsmanship master Kang En.
The entire continent fell into unprecedented chaos.
The strong men of humanity are being hunted by the gods, while demons and evil spirits begin to infiltrate Fenan.
As for hell... God knows what those devils are thinking. The news coming from hell one after another is shocking and disturbing. It is said that Diros's army has almost swept across the entire Nine Layers of Purgatory. If this man really unified the Nine Layers of Purgatory, then Fenan's future will probably be overshadowed again.
What makes the Migratory Bird Council even more desperate is that they do not have a complete number of Archdruids!
Previously, Endless Ocean and some other people went to the Green Sea Wonderland to look for the daughter of the Ancient God of Nature. Perhaps because of the time difference between the planes, they have not returned yet; although the demigod Minsk has arrived at the Supreme Jungle as promised, their strength is still insufficient.
"Maybe we will all die here today."
The old tree man looked at the uninvited celestial deer Roland and said, "You don't belong to this land and you shouldn't be buried with us."
Lorant shook his head.
He looked at the countless demon armies in front of him and just said one sentence softly:
"Actually, none of this matters anymore."
"What I'm more curious about is, where did that guy go?"
After these words were spoken, everyone fell silent.
In fact, not only them, but the entire Fenan people were curious.
Ma Wen, who had been missing for half a month, where on earth had he gone? !
…
At the same time, on a sailboat full of demons, a curled-up little demon couldn't help but yawn.
"It's really troublesome that there is no cross-dimensional spell."
"I have to take a ride on a boat to go back to Fenan... I was inexplicably drafted into a demon squad. Where are they going to fight?"
"This direction should be towards the upper plane... Could it be that they have already opened the demon gate in Fenan?"
…
