Demon King: Hero, don't run away!-Chapter 1036 - 1037: A Past No One Wants to Mention
Capítulo 1036: Chapter 1037: A Past No One Wants to Mention
In his previous life, Yang Yu had seen many cruel scenarios and had a certain level of immunity, but he still took three deep breaths as Owen advised.
What he was about to witness next wasn’t a game screen, but the actual history that transpired in this world.
Yang Yu prepared himself, and the scenes began flowing once more.
Hero Lox defeated Amon, and the world ushered in a brief period of peace again.
After learning that the Hero had returned to the Village of Heroes, people felt a little lost for a while, but then began erecting monuments and statues in his honor to commemorate all he had done for the Human race.
During this time, many of the unscrupulous countries restrained themselves, constantly using excuses like “this was also for survival, there was no other way”, to justify and protect the interests they had seized during the chaos.
Initially, countries that had suffered the agony of war still attempted to reclaim their rightful interests through peaceful means.
However, they gradually lost patience with the persistent evasion of these “robbers”.
Inevitably, tensions escalated rapidly.
Many countries were not afraid of war; what they feared was someone taking advantage during the war to steal even more of their interests.
How can one maximize their interests?
Different people had different answers; some would seek win-win cooperation, while others would choose to plunder and encroach upon others’ interests.
Several countries set their sights on Country A, taken over by the Demon Clan Remnants.
After the Demon Clan Remnants usurped the country, multiple factions emerged within Country A.
Ultimately, Country A split into three, governed separately by the pro-monarchy, expulsion for independence, and reconciliation factions.
Ironically, among the three divided countries, the reconciliation faction fared the best.
This country was governed by demons who had had enough of war and hiding; left behind in this world, they no longer wished to serve the Demon King, only seeking survival here.
They allied, making clear distinctions right from wrong, treating everyone equally.
Additionally, they were extremely adept at marketing themselves with advanced technologies.
The oppressed, the exploited, those dissatisfied with past kingdom rulers, and idealists all flocked to their banner.
This country, though lacking legitimacy by name, was unprecedentedly united, with everyone striving for an equal and prosperous life.
Interracial marriages gradually became commonplace.
Back then, a young man practicing the Broken Wind Style fell in love with a seductive Enchanting Demon lady, and they walked down the aisle amid the blessings of people from all races.
Unfortunately, a state with demon involvement in politics seemed inherently bound with original sin.
After a round of indiscriminate labeling, several countries united to crusade against that country.
And this, in turn, became the beginning of a new war.
To survive, that country had no choice but to form alliances and disperse various strategies.
More and more countries were drawn into the war, eventually erupting into an Otherworld version of a world war.
But unlike Yang Yu’s world, what ended this world war wasn’t some disease or unwise decisions, but the dormant Goblin God of War, Cide.
In the decades of dormancy, the Goblin God of War acted cautiously.
During the chaotic period when Amon ran rampant, there were frequent sighting reports of bizarre goblins, stronger than ordinary goblins, clad in special armor.
Alongside these strange goblin sightings were incidents of a large number of livestock and females disappearing.
Some had organized adventurers to investigate.
The investigating adventurers either never returned or gained nothing.
As the world gradually attained peace, reports of strange goblins dwindled, leading to the notion that mountain bandits exploited the chaos to commit crimes.
The tales of strange goblins became legends, turning into ghost stories adults used to scare children.
Unfortunately, the reports of strange goblins weren’t false; the truth was extremely brutal.
It was all orchestrated by the Goblin God of War.
In a short few decades of dormancy, the Goblin God of War scoured for large female creatures, using them or treating them as tools to breed a direct goblin army of three thousand strong.
The happenings in the cave where the Goblin Emperor resided could only be described as unbearable to watch, any conceivable cruel act would occur there.
These cruel acts would, with the Goblin Emperor’s rampage, eventually engulf the Continent.
The Goblin God of War’s favorite pastime was sitting on his throne, watching his offspring fight in the arena, to select stronger individuals for guidance and cultivation.
One day, the Goblin God of War captured a sizable group of adventurers, and from their mouths learned of the world’s current trend.
The Goblin God of War let out an unprecedentedly loud snicker, immediately ordering a campaign to conquer the world.
Subsequently, the Goblin God of War officially became the Goblin Emperor, wielding unparalleled power, becoming invincible across the world.
The number of goblins behind him grew from three thousand to thirty thousand, three hundred thousand, three million….
A terrifying and bloody era had begun.
Previously, Owen had watched this history in its entirety, and before certain scenes unfolded, he kindly warned Yang Yu, even thoughtfully blurring some scenes and censoring them.
But Yang Yu chose to watch everything that happened in full.
Not seeing it doesn’t mean it didn’t happen.
Remembering history is to prevent tragedies from happening again.
Miring solely in beautiful things only leads to naivety and stupidity.
Until the Goblin Emperor conquered five countries, only then did everyone in the world realize the severity of the problem.
Only when facing a greater enemy would former foes unite and stand together.
Upon learning of the Goblin Emperor’s brutal acts, almost all nations set aside past animosities, uniting as never before as they did in the past against the Demon King.
During the initial stage of the alliance, there were still some overt and covert struggles, but seeing one country after another fall and their citizens becoming slaves and food, the principle that prosperity or doom is shared deeply engraved in everyone’s heart.
All people in the world set aside any barriers, picked up weapons, and fought for their shared future.
However, the situation on the front lines remained extremely despairing; those sent to the front were deemed lucky to survive.
The Goblin Emperor’s troops not only had an overwhelming number but also overwhelming combat capabilities.
It was unimaginable that the entities they fought were goblins, whom they once considered extremely weak.
The World Alliance Army retreated step by step, receiving a little wavering support from the giant dragons, barely restoring some morale.
When no one knew when this Dark Age would end, unexpectedly, the goblin troops fell into disarray, providing the previously passive World Alliance Army an opportunity to finally counterattack.
What people at that time didn’t know was that the goblin troops fell into chaos because the Goblin Emperor had disappeared.
