Everyone Is A Lord: My Talent Is A Little Too Strong - Chapter 2660: 1263: Past Events and Confessions (Part 2)
Capítulo 2660: Chapter 1263: Past Events and Confessions (Part 2)
In order to prevent the Broken Valley Alliance from harming them, both the Desert and the Rainforest superficially reached a friendly agreement with the former but secretly guarded against it, never daring to be careless.
When the Broken Valley Alliance battled with the witch demons, both the Desert and the Rainforest actually had many perfect opportunities to send troops to help the Broken Valley Alliance resolve crises, as agreed, they indeed were supposed to send troops.
But, until the Broken Valley Alliance was completely devoured by the witch demons, both still chose to stand by, letting the forbidden technique ravage the once fertile lands, and even felt a bit of schadenfreude, until this war finally came.
In other words, the reason for the witch demons becoming so powerful is largely due to the responsibility of the Desert Alliance and Rainforest Fortress Alliance.
If they had kept their promises back then and chosen to stand with the Broken Valley Alliance instead of watching from the sidelines, the witch demons would have long been eradicated, how could they develop to this day?
After all, those powerful second-tier forces were indifferent because the witch demons wouldn’t actively provoke them, while they completely ignored it because they feared the strength of the Broken Valley Alliance, which led to betrayal and to the current situation.
Thinking of this, Sina and Loris’s faces became increasingly embarrassed.
Even though they were not decision-makers back then or even born yet, if both alliances had kept their promises back then, the witch demons wouldn’t dare act so recklessly, almost wiping them out and their entire alliance not long ago.
Noticing their embarrassment, old Gary only moved his jawbone, seemingly trying to smile before he used the same respectful title Sina and others used for Leo Ray, nodding deeply and saying: “Your Majesty of the Humans, this Underground City operates independently without any connection to the surface.”
“And being how a witch demon acts, it’s absolutely impossible that they would connect their capital with here, so let’s return to the surface first.”
Old Gary pointed to another passage and continued: “The nearest Underground City entrance is not far away, so let’s return to the surface first.”
After speaking, old Gary first signaled Leo Ray and others to wait a moment and then approached other strong members of the Broken Valley Alliance, calling loudly: “Everyone, we have waited far too long for this battle, and now Your Majesty of the Humans has come with his powerful followers along with strong members of the Desert Alliance and Rainforest Fortress Alliance, this is our opportunity for revenge!”
“But before that, we must thank Your Majesty of the Humans for helping activate the engravings on our bodies! Only then did we get this long-awaited chance!”
Having said that, old Gary placed his hand bone over his ribs, bowing deeply to Leo Ray.
Other powerful members of the Broken Valley Alliance did the same thing, expressing gratitude and respect toward Leo Ray.
“Please, everyone, it is precisely because of your awakening that we can turn the tide of battle.”
Leo Ray was quite calm, nodding slightly: “It’s our honor to fight alongside you.”
“No, it is our honor to fight alongside Your Majesty of the Humans! Just this courage to delve alone into the heart of the witch demon territory is enough to earn our admiration because we know well the power and terror of the witch demons.”
Old Gary nodded deeply, adjusting the worn crown on his head, calling out: “Warriors of the Broken Valley Alliance, the time for revenge has come, this time I won’t allow anyone to fall behind!”
Having said that, old Gary waved his hand, and all the powerful warriors of the Broken Valley Alliance were full of morale, immediately forming a battle formation and advancing toward the nearest passage leading to the surface, and Leo Ray and our other powerful members also reorganized themselves, following their pace.
The group proceeded upwards along the passage, this time, although there wasn’t the previous gravity barrier encountered, they were still stopped by an extremely solid pale barrier wall.
At first, the group intended to breakthrough forcefully, but whether it was old Gary or Loris and others concentrating their attacks, it still didn’t budge an inch.
“Damn it, the enemy must have realized the failure of the previous group of witch demons, thus sealing the entire Underground City!”
After attacking with all his might resulting in failure, Loris rubbed his numb red tiger’s mouth and spat fiercely.
“This confinement barrier is likely connected directly to the witch demon capital, its sturdiness comparable to the defensive barriers of second-tier forces’ main cities, using the endlessly flowing black fog miasma as energy.”
After examining it for a moment, Frank furrowed his brows and said: “Unless we destroy the witch demon capital on the surface, there’s no way to force a breakthrough.”
“But we are all trapped here now, how can we destroy the enemy’s capital first?”
Sina furrowed Melody Lyon’s brows, again looking involuntarily at Leo Ray, after experiencing more and more events, this leader of the Desert had come to trust him extremely.
“Old man, is there any other way to decipher it?”
Leo Ray gently rubbed his chin and asked Frank: “Like that special method you used against the witch demons before?”
“Your Majesty, this confinement barrier indeed uses Necromancy as its core, I might try it.”
Frank nodded after sensing it again for a while: “But deciphering will need some time.”
“Go ahead.”
Seeing no other choice, Leo Ray confirmed decisively: “If there’s anything needed, I will fully support.”
“By your command, Your Majesty!”
Frank saluted with hand over heart and immediately started to act, while Leo Ray directed Yonir and others to establish a soundproof barrier to prevent interference.
Once everything was arranged, old Gary also came over, speaking: “Your Majesty of the Humans, I have also instructed my strong members to check other passage entrances, if there are any news, you will be informed immediately, rest assured, this time we will fight alongside you till the end.”
“The words of the old leader always bring reassurance.”
Leo Ray smiled a bit, taking advantage of the gap while Frank deciphered the formation, collected his smile, and asked a question long lingering in his mind: “Old leader, excuse my bluntness, how exactly did your alliance and the witch demons come to war back then?”
“Not hiding from Your Majesty of the Humans, everything originates from the desire for power.”
Old Gary lowered his head bone and began describing: “It was precisely this twisted desire that eventually opened the destructive magic box, awakening those terrifying and hateful beings.”
“So you’re saying, you truly awakened the witch demons?”
Loris widened his lion eyes, blurting out: “What exactly happened back then?”
“The source of the matter had to start from the time we unexpectedly discovered an underground ancient relic from the Silver Moon Era.”
Old Gary’s aged voice was full of vicissitudes, continuing to describe.
From the narration on the opposing passage, Leo Ray learned that back then, upon discovering that ancient relic, old Gary, as the leader of Broken Valley, was patrolling nearby and upon receiving the news, he directly led the Imperial Guards to join the team exploring the relic.
“At the beginning, that underground ancient relic was no different from other relics we have discovered, all filled with an ancient and vicissitudinous air, magic vines and magic moss grew everywhere, shimmering darkly and mysteriously.”
“But as the exploration deepened, I gradually found that ancient relic becoming increasingly abnormal because the murals engraved on the walls depicted extremely cruel and bloody scenes, offerings, cultivation of taboo skills, various cruel punishments were all presented one by one.”
“More terrifyingly, many twisted and eerie giant sculptures have appeared, some of bones, some of demon beasts, and even legendary demons…”
Upon hearing old Gary talk about this, everyone couldn’t help but look at each other.
