The Girls Are All Coveting Me-Chapter 454 - 390: The Hero Emerges—So Who Will Be the Demon King? Surely Not Me?
The journey in the Dark Territory has become history.
When recording this war, later generations used a very subtle term.
[Twilight Battle]
Firstly, because the core explosion of the battlefield was in Twilight City.
Secondly, because from this moment on, the era of the Twilight of the Gods officially begins.
...
Chloe returned to the surface on the third day of the Twilight Battle.
Since she had already entered the Dark Territory, Chloe could not continue to let the various races in the Dark Territory keep developing within it.
The era of Great Expansion in the Dark Territory was after the Age of the Seven Heroes.
In other words, this area was created after their time.
If it were back then, the Seven Heroes would have wielded the butcher’s knife and cleansed this place.
The reason heroes are called heroes doesn’t necessarily mean they are kind.
Considering longer-term goals, even throwing oneself into it, is what makes a hero.
At the end of the Divine Fire Era, almost all troublesome forbidden zones on the continent were leveled by the Hero Squad.
Only after eliminating future troubles did the Seven Heroes head to the Star Realm battlefield to assassinate the Fear Demon God.
Now Chloe and the others also begin to reenact the actions of the past.
The Dark Territory has remained a thorn in The Stars for far too long.
Previously, Kai did not clean them up immediately, estimating that during the late Era of Turmoil, the forces in The Stars were so heavily damaged that he couldn’t clean it up alone without omissions.
Once they counterattacked, the nations above ground, struggling to catch their breath, might explode instantly.
The Stars are too vast; that kid Louis probably can’t ignore other more important matters to rush for this one.
By the time he has the time to mobilize the Dark Territory, the underground races might have started to shrink their eggs, pretending to be good, giving no justification for warfare above ground.
Coupled with Kai’s rapid promotion, having spent only a few years in The Stars, forcefully letting the Dark Territory endure a round of cleansing.
But the premise was... that it wasn’t yet the time for the great decisive battle.
Kai felt no need to initiate the operation of [Using Heavy Measures in Turmoil].
And now.
Chloe feels it’s time to act.
Cannot let these races who might backstab at any moment remain in The Stars.
If there’s a problem in the rear, The Stars would be thrown into chaos.
Therefore, after making the Spider Queen dare not descend divinely, he decisively started the decapitation action.
The high-levels of all established races in the Dark Territory met their catastrophe.
These ferocious beings who used to kill each other met a presence even more ferocious than themselves.
All Legendary and above strong individuals were purged, leaving the forces leaderless and devoid of organizational ability.
Without mid and high-level strong individuals to stand out and take charge, the entire Dark Territory will inevitably fall into a stage of mutual attack and torment in the coming days.
As for whether there were very few kind souls among those dead mid and high-levels?
It can only be said, the possibility is minimal.
If they were truly kind, even if they left the Dark Territory for the surface world, few would stop them.
Being able to remain underground, they were practically a group of madmen universally known, certain to be wanted upon showing their faces.
Thanks to this, Chloe’s strike was precise.
With Fufu’s shadow teleportation and Nini’s spatial magic support, they swiftly cleared high levels from all sides and took away resources pillaged underground over years.
If the races of the Dark Territory manage to re-establish order and comply with coordination in coming times, these resources might be considered for redistribution to rebuild order after the World Group war.
But at least now, Chloe does not allow any disturbances from the Dark Territory.
...
Upon returning to the Ethereal Emblem, Chloe felt an intense atmosphere of war.
For many years, Ethereal Emblem adhered to the concept of educating for pleasure, teaching one group of students after another, so much so that many had forgotten that this organization originated as a war machine during the era.
It was created in response to catastrophes as a militarized institution.
With recent changes in the continent’s situation, Ethereal Emblem’s curriculum is gradually shifting towards militarization.
Although students do not understand the specific situation, they accept this higher-intensity training.
Simultaneously, Chloe also learned a piece of good news from the Extreme Association.
Other than the Abyss of Woe Squad, Extreme Association developed its very first native Sequence Seven peak female member.
Even though that member’s breakthrough was sparked by a sudden flash of insight during practice, it still signifies the superiority of related techniques developed by Extreme Association recently.
In past times, a person at Sequence Seven could already reign supreme among contemporary young people.
But times have changed.
All forces are beginning to utilize the cards they’ve accumulated over time, and new talents are emerging one after another.
Even the most sluggish small forces are starting to sense something amiss.
Too crazy.
It’s like everyone is thrust into a state of wartime preparation.
If only one or two forces did this, small forces could comfort themselves by saying they were preparing for conflict with others.
But when almost every force adopts the newcomer training rule without exception, it indeed raises suspicion.
For a moment, even the thieves who ransack others on the wasteland became somewhat restrained.
There are people behind the thieves, unable to detect the problem within.
This seems to be the rhythm of big events happening.
No one wants to touch the tiger’s whiskers of various forces during this period.
It was under such circumstances that the auction of the White Bone Dragon Lord’s remains officially began.
When the data related to the White Bone Dragon Lord were showcased, even the smallest forces in the most remote areas caught wind of it.
...
"What! A Saint Realm powerhouse at the level of a Saint?"
"Are you joking? That’s a Sequence three monster!"
"If I remember correctly, the Saint Realm means surpassing the current Sequence to directly battle with the next tier of powerhouses, right?"
"Yes, Saint + Saint Realm equals directly matching an Angel."
"An Angel fell silently without anyone knowing, what kind of joke is this?"
"It can’t be considered silent; there were already signs some time ago."
"You mean Princess Tiffany from the Locke Empire, right?"
"Otherwise, the one chasing her at that time was this White Bone Dragon Lord; they say she got lucky and ran into a Demigod Squad active in the Abyss of Woe at that time..."
"Aren’t you speaking human language? What kind of Demigod Squad can take down an Angel?"
"Almost the entire Saint Realm Demigod Squad..."
"￥%&... You take it as if I said nothing."
"No, right? Anyone in the Saint Realm must be well-known! Without frequent and strong exchange of techniques between powerhouses, how can one break through the technical bottleneck?"
"I don’t understand either, even for the Warrior’s favorite [Action Tide]. Typically, even gifted Extraordinary need half a year of training to master it, right?"
"I don’t understand, I’m greatly shocked."
For a time, this auction had the potential to become a century-grade auction.
Major newspapers were stirred and began investigating the mysteries behind the auction items.
As the events behind the White Bone Dragon Lord gradually unfurled, more and more unbelievable details caused uproar among the people.
"What do you mean by a Demigod Team composed of recent graduates and contemporary college students?"
"What do you mean by having enough resources can unconditionally grant a Sequence 9 Extraordinary the combat means of a Sequence 8?"
"Buddy, aren’t you a purely violent organization? Why are there so many research results?"
"Ah? The president of the Extreme Association has been promoted to a Saint? The Demigod Squad is old news, now it’s renamed the Saint Squad?"
"No! One Saint, Four Gods, Three Legends, plus a Chosen One? What a glamorous configuration? Wait, how is there a Sequence six? This woman must have something peculiar!"
But soon.
Many people realized something was amiss.
The rise of any strong figure bears corresponding origins.
It’s well known that if someone relatively unknown suddenly becomes an elite powerhouse, the likelihood is that they’re not really young, but rather an old hand coming forth.
Not to mention, there’s a circulating rumor about the creator of the Dawn Era, the King of Redemption, originally tracing back to some powerful entity 13,000 years ago.
While spanning over thirteen thousand years, not many can still delve into the specifics of the late Divine Fire Era, yet various traces remain.
Undeniably, the squad that killed the White Bone Dragon Lord is a terrifying existence capable of determining future development directions across continental forces.
Additionally, they’re even more excessive than the King of Redemption.
The King of Redemption at least progressed step by step, gradually showcasing his mighty power to the continents.
But this squad emerged too suddenly.
So much so that various small forces that originally had channels to top-tier powers began frantically inquiring about the situation.
However, major powers with vague guesses all kept silent.
Some things are not suitable to be stated directly before their final eruption.
It could only make subordinates guess on their own.
As for the conclusions reached, whether correct or incorrect, it did not concern them at all.
Under such a situation, another shocking news abruptly came to light.
[The Church of the God of Glory and Justice has birthed a new Hero]
Everyone stared dumbfoundedly at this suddenly explosive news.
Buddy, why are there still Heroes in this era?
After the last generation of Demon King died, wasn’t the Hero existence merely nominal?
Now coming out and telling me there’s a new Hero born, what the hell is this?
The Hero has appeared, then who would the Demon King be?
"Can’t possibly be us, can it?"
However, this news was merely the beginning.
Soon, another earth-shattering message came from the City Church of Glory and Justice.
"After more than 7100 years, the Church of the God of Glory and Justice will form a Hero Squad once again"
Everyone clicked on the message in panic, wanting to learn about the new Hero Squad’s members.
The moment they clicked to see, no one spoke.
Why do the squad members seem familiar, as if seen someplace?
