Saving the World in an Apocalypse-Style Text Game-Chapter 977 - 456 The Conspiracy of the Ancient Dragon Lineage, Polar Star Association Headquarters
[Realizing the urgency of the situation, you immediately summon the ’Demon Shaman’ and declare that you have discovered the exact location of the ’Polar Star Association’ headquarters. You must leave the Abyss right away to go to the Polar Star Association and, taking advantage of the ’Executor’s’ injuries that have not yet healed, completely kill them!]
[However, upon hearing your words, the ’Demon Shaman’ does not agree but instead speaks with solemnity, "Noble Child of the Abyss, that human Executor possesses divine-level strength. Even if heavily wounded, he still possesses immense power, far beyond what a demigod can contend with...]
["Speaking such pathetic words, for a long while now, the Demon Clan has been enslaved and slaughtered by humans, the deaths of our demon kin numbering in the hundreds of millions. Although the Executor and the Polar Star Association owe a blood debt to the Demon Clan, avenging them is far less important than your safety.]
[As the ’Child of the Abyss,’ heading to the Polar Star Association headquarters alone is tantamount to walking into the enemy’s den—it’s far too dangerous.]
[You are the only hope for the Demon Clan, you carry on your shoulders the heavy responsibility of our clan’s revival...]
[You interrupt the ’Demon Shaman’s’ words, leaving him with no room for rebuttal...]
[This is the prophecy of the Abyss!]
[The ’Demon Shaman’ opens his mouth but finds himself speechless, realizing that your mind is made up and any further persuasion would be futile.]
[He sighs deeply, compromising, "If you insist on going to the Polar Star Association headquarters, please take with you the personal guards of the Seven Demon Lords. Should you encounter any insurmountable troubles, do not hesitate to let the personal guards of the Seven Demon Lords cover your retreat.]
["To sacrifice their lives for the sake of the ’Child of the Abyss’ and make even a small contribution to the revival of the Demon Clan is the lifelong wish of all demons.]
[If it needs to be sacrificed for this purpose, it shall not hesitate in the slightest.]
[Having said that, regardless of your opinion, it calls forth the personal guards of the Seven Demon Lords...]
[It loudly proclaims that the Child of the Demon is about to depart to the human world to fulfill the great will of the Abyss, and the personal guards of the Seven Demon Lords must protect the safety of the ’Child of the Abyss’ at the cost of their lives, without hesitation!]
[The expressions of the various major demon lords’ personal guards vary, but you see not a trace of dissatisfaction in their eyes, only unwavering determination.]
[The ’Demon Shaman’ retrieves an ancient parchment and uses the blood of the personal guards of the Seven Demon Lords to inscribe a magic array, conducting an unknown ritual...]
[As the magic array’s bloody light erupts, the figures of the Seven Demon Lords’ personal guards vanish, replaced by seven distinct demonic shadows on the parchment.]
[The ’Demon Shaman’ solemnly hands the parchment to you with both hands...]
[You have acquired the ’Scroll of Sealing the Seven Demon Lords’ Personal Guards’ (Mythical+ Level Item)!]
[’Scroll of Sealing the Seven Demon Lords’ Personal Guards’ (Mythical+ Level Item): The parchment seals the seven great demon lords who have voluntarily sworn to protect the ’Child of the Abyss’ unto death, including Pride, Envy... Gluttony, Lust.]
[Using this item, you will be able to summon the ’Seven Demon Lords’ Personal Guards’ to battle for you. This item can only be used within this Chapter and only once.]
[The ’Demon Shaman’ speaks to you, saying that since the Demon Clan is considered the best magic material in the eyes of humans, having the Seven Demon Lords’ personal guards accompany you directly to the human world would not only be no help to you but would also cause you trouble.]
[Therefore, it sealed the personal guards in the parchment. When you need them, you may simply tear the parchment to release the seals...]
[Startled, you ask what will happen to the Seven Demon Lords’ personal guards after the battle ends and the seals have been broken. How will they return to the Abyss?]
[The ’Demon Shaman’ does not speak, but you understand everything from his gaze.]
[This parchment is a one-way ticket to the human world; neither the Demon Shaman nor the Seven Demon Lords’ personal guards have ever thought of returning to the Abyss alive...]
[You fall silent, suddenly feeling a hint of shame because you know that you are not the ’Child of the Abyss.’ You are an enemy of the Abyss, and even more so, an enemy of the Demon Clan.]
[This is not about good or evil, nor is it about race, it’s only a matter of differing beliefs...]
[...]
Lin Xun carefully stores the scroll and then finds the two captive Star Realm Envoys, taking their Shells into his possession as well.
He bids farewell to the Demon Shaman and blows the ’Abyssal Horn,’ returning to the ’Lamsey Abyss Cave.’
Time being of the essence, he does not dare to delay any longer. He immediately takes ’Rona’ back to the surface, boards a Refined Copper carriage, and sets off for the Polar Star Association headquarters in the Imperial Capital Saint Etienne...
[...]
[The Refined Copper carriage races swiftly through the mist, heading toward the direction of the Imperial City...]
[Inside the carriage, ’Rona,’ sitting beside you, speaks to you about the Polar Star Association’s conspiracy to exploit the bloodlines of the five Ancient Dragons...]
[The ’Almighty True Knowledge’ sealed the Ancient Dragon Power after the second war of the gods, causing the Ancient Dragons, who had been Eternal True Gods, to become weak demigods.]
[Previously it did not understand why the ’Almighty True Knowledge’ would want to seal the Ancient Dragon Power, but after your explanation, it has come to understand the reason.] 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦
[Had the ’Almighty True Knowledge’ not foreseen the disorderly spread and thus sealed the Ancient Dragon Power, the Ancient Dragons would have become monsters of Chaos after the war of the gods...]
[Unfortunately, such an act could only slightly delay the advance of Chaos and couldn’t completely isolate it.]
[After the Ancestor of the Law, the rest of the Ancient Dragons also became monsters of Chaos one after another, only the ’Golden Ancestor of the Law’ has temporarily escaped this fate due to betraying his oath and belief.]
