Everyone Is A Lord: My Talent Is A Little Too Strong - Chapter 2663 1465: Encirclement

As soon as Leo Ray spoke, a sudden silence descended over the gathering. Almost everyone present, including Loris and Sina, grew increasingly grave, or furrowed their brows tightly.

According to the description of the Surviving Alliance general, the giant statue standing deep within the ruins was indistinct in outline and form, its true nature unknown. But given the series of demon statues there, and the fact it was a territory swarming with Witch Demons, the answer was obvious.

In ancient records, it is noted that after the Battle of Winter’s Chill in the Sun Era, when the Deities defeated the Evil Gods, all said evil gods perished. Yet, remnants of demons or the Malevolent Deity’s Chosen Son would occasionally cause trouble, trying to spread destruction and death, and secretly established numerous Evil God Temples and Demon Halls.

Since the Silver Moon Era, the Chosen Sons of God from the Ten Thousand Clans, and even the Deities themselves, frequently engaged these remnants directly, eliminating every demon and Malevolent Deity’s Chosen Son they encountered. It was recorded that the malevolent flames had been thoroughly snuffed out.

However, looking at the current situation, both the Malevolent Deity’s Chosen Son that Leo Ray encountered in the Human Domain, and the present Witch Demons, were evidently the remnants that escaped from those days.

And the Ancient Relics discovered by old Gary might be an Evil God Temple or Demon Hall, and the true nature of that unknown statue must be a minion or servant demon of the Evil God, or even the Evil God itself.

“Your Majesty of the Humans, do you mean that unknown giant statue has bewitched Waters?”

Loris took a deep breath and inquired.

“This is the only reasonable answer.”

Leo Ray affirmed Loris’s perspective and continued: “Perhaps it is not even a statue, but like the Witch Demons, has fallen into a slumber. The statue may not yet be awake, but it is enough to bewitch minds.”

“Makes sense, so from the very beginning, our opponents were not just the Witch Demons, but also the true nature of that giant statue?”

Sina furrowed her brows thoughtfully and nodded.

“Do you still remember what we speculated earlier, about the backing behind the Witch Demons?”

Leo Ray gently stroked his chin, continuing: “Perhaps that backing wasn’t a second-tier power at all.”

“Are you saying the true nature of that giant statue is the real backing behind the Witch Demons?”

Loris took over the conversation, suddenly enlightened: “In that case, everything makes sense! After all, those nearby second-tier powers are all guarding against each other right now, with no manpower or energy to spare for our side!”

Having said this, Loris also tightly furrowed his brows.

This undoubtedly means that our real opponent is clearly much more troublesome than a second-tier power that can’t reach us here.

Upon hearing this, everyone on our side looked equally grave, subconsciously gripping their weapons tightly.

If it were an Evil God Temple, wouldn’t we have to contend with Evil Gods? Those are entities even Deities cannot ignore.

“Rest assured, it shouldn’t be a true Evil God. Otherwise, in today’s world where Deities have long departed, the force of the Evil God’s bewitchment would’ve swept across the entire continent by now, and the Witch Demons wouldn’t remain residing here,”

Leo Ray saw the thoughts in everyone’s hearts and added: “So, the answer is self-evident.”

As soon as Leo Ray spoke, the previously tense atmosphere eased considerably, with almost everyone secretly breathing a sigh of relief.

Your Majesty of the Humans is correct, if their power were truly formidable, they certainly wouldn’t stay inactive, nor would they coexist peacefully with second-tier powers.

If it’s a demon instead of an Evil God, perhaps we might have a fighting chance.

“But Your Majesty of the Humans, ever since our battle began with the Witch Demons, we’ve never encountered any other terrible beings,”

Old Gary’s voice grew more serious, and he spoke: “Could the situation not be as bad as we think?”

“Old leader, regardless of the circumstances, we must prepare for the worst and be mentally ready. Back in those times, the backing behind the Witch Demons probably didn’t show because their power hadn’t recovered yet,”

Leo Ray nodded slightly, responding: “But now, with the long years gone by, even if their power hasn’t fully returned, it will still be a formidable force, otherwise, it wouldn’t simultaneously aim for the Desert Alliance, Rainforest Fortress Alliance, and my domain.”

“Your Majesty of the Humans speaks the truth. Had our Broken Valley Alliance been victorious back then, such scourge wouldn’t have remained!”

Old Gary slammed his hand on the wall, sighing heavily, as Loris and Sina both had helpless expressions.

If their Alliance had dispatched troops to assist back then, they might have indeed been able to snuff out the evil in the cradle, but alas, history has no ‘ifs.’

“But even if we’ve never felt the presence of the backing behind the Witch Demons, and even if the nearby second-tier powers are unaware, could it be that those first-class forces atop the Peak of the Ten Thousand Clans haven’t noticed either?”

Lannis’s steadfast face showed a trace of doubt, and he couldn’t help but speak: “If they had noticed, why wouldn’t they have acted to eradicate the Witch Demons? After all, during the previous two eras, they were the enemies of the Ten Thousand Clans.”

“Clan Leader of the Catman, this question isn’t hard to understand. Perhaps they really haven’t noticed.”
