Chapter 200: The Demon That Broke the Seal
As he pressed his thumb on the exquisite and mysterious sacred sun pattern on her forehead.
The system’s data stream instantly appeared in the void.
Kant saw that the data stream directly wrapped around the head in his hands, allowing the data to seep into the beautiful eyes, ears, nostrils, and mouth.
A dialog box quickly popped up on his retina.
[ Ding… After your untiring efforts, the main quest has been completed ]
[ Main quest: “Absorption” completed ]
[ Reward: The system’s new function has been activated ]
[ Introduction: With your help, the system discovered the hidden power in this world from this beautiful girl, the system appreciated for your help. Remark: the system has completed the database, new function has been activated ]
The absorption ended
The head in Kant’s hand still looked beautiful, but it had lost some of its luster.
This was a corpse.
Kant did not care at all. He threw the head down and stood up.
Compared to capture this beautiful girl who once existed in the gods era, Kant thought that completing the system’s main quest was more useful. And the myths had disappeared in the river of time, it was not worth paying attention to, those were all useless information now.
They were not information at all.
Even if Kant knew why the so-called Father God had fallen and why the so-called Holy City of Gold had been betrayed.
So what?
It was already a thousand years later, a new era.
Kant stood here.
He was a member of this era.
He easily killed this beautiful woman who obviously had a high status from the once existed mythological era. It also proved that the new era was not necessarily inferior to the previous mythological era.
At the very least.
Since he could kill this woman, it also meant that he could kill the existence in the mythological era that had come back to life!
Kant had the golden finger, he would not submit to the bloodline of these gods, nor would he worship those high and mighty gods. Even when he was in the Dukedom of Leo, he did not even enter the temple of the God of War to be baptized and become a believer of the God of War, Edmund. Instead, he went to the academy and became a scholar who pursued knowledge and truth.
The era of the gods had long gone. Humans were the masters of this land.
Even if the other races had also developed their own kingdoms and forces.
The races that relied solely on the power of the gods had long developed themselves and become the overlords of the new era. Even if the gods reappeared, it was estimated that they would have a fight with the royal authorities in front of them. Moreover, Kant had already heard what this woman said. This world could no longer accommodate more powerful supernatural powers.
Combining the supernatural powers that Kant had known in the past, Kant understood in his heart.
If his prediction was not wrong.
This world should be at the end of magic era.
The armies between races were the symbol of strength, and supernatural powers had long been reduced as an auxiliary means.
Just as what Kant understood.
When the extraordinary power could not conquer anymore, then they would lose their past glory, and the royal power would once again occupy the top of the power. The noble who controlled the army were the powerful people in this world. Even if it was divine power, or the mages who controlled the extraordinary power, they all had to lower their heads in front of this royal power and compromise with each other.
In the cave of the relic, the golden light was still bright.
Kant turned his head and looked at the left and right sides of the coffin. Each of them had a small sun disk.
There were the only real sun disks in the relic.
They were made of gold.
The other sun disks were all made of stone. However, because of the sacred sun pattern on them, they reflected this mysterious golden light, forming a bright light that filled the sky, just like daylight.
There seemed to be nothing left in this relic.
Only the thick stench of blood covered the ground.
Under the leadership of James and Manid, the soldiers carefully searched the other areas on both sides of the stone platform. However, other than the collapsed stones and the collapsed stone buildings, they did not find anything of value.
For example, gold, silver, gems, and other common funerary objects were not found.
If it wasn’t for this coffin…
This place didn’t look like a mausoleum, nor did it look like a pure temple. It was more like a sanctuary or a secret gathering place.
Kant narrowed his eyes.
His eyes swept across the pitch-black flesh eggs. They had all been cut open by the soldiers with swords, releasing all the blood and embryos inside and killing them. But when he saw these things, he still had a strange feeling in his heart, just like these pitch-black flesh eggs, it was not that simple.
But Kant thought that it was indeed not that simple.
He turned his head slightly.
The decapitated female corpse was completely dead.
But he still remembered that when this beautiful girl was alive, she saw the pitch-black flesh eggs below, the anger on her face, and said that the power of the demons of the abyss that had defiled this temple.
There was indeed a temple on the peak of the mountain outside, but it had already turned into ashes when Kant took down the sun disk.
This was also the reason why he did not dare to take down the two sun disks.
The consequences of taking them down.
Perhaps it was this relic that directly turned into ashes, and even caused the mountain to collapse. The village of Rhodok, “Aaron”, which was located on the peak of the mountain, might directly turned into ashes too. Kant had spent a lot of effort to obtain this additional village, the second base in the future. He afraid it would completely turn into a bubble, turn into ruins.
“My Lord!”
And just as Kant was deep in thought, a Swadian sergeant came over.
With a solemn expression, he reported, “We discovered an abnormal situation. When we were cutting these pitch-black flesh eggs, we discovered that these flesh eggs all extended out from the ground, just like plants that grew out.”
“What?”, Kant frowned, his face a little solemn.
He walked to the flesh eggs at the edge of the stone platform.
Some knights had already cut open these flesh eggs, just like thick skin. After completely peeling them, they could still find that at the bottom of these flesh eggs, there was a black hole of about half a meter. The edges were covered with dark skin and fat, as if it was some kind of biological tube, it trembled slightly and secreted a smelly dark red liquid.
It seemed that what was secreted was actually blood, which was almost the same as the blood flowing in the bodies of the demonized wolves.
“The situation is not good.”
James and Manid stood side by side.
Kant’s face was solemn. “It is indeed not good.”
These flesh eggs were connected, which meant that there was probably some unknown space at the bottom of this relic. It might even be hiding the key to the formation of those pseudo-demonized creatures!
Kant even suspected that all the demonized creatures in the Senwaya Range were bred in this way!
“Burn these flesh eggs.”
Kant still ordered solemnly, “After we go out, have people carefully look after the inside of the relic. If there are any abnormal situations, immediately report it. If we encounter an enemy that we can’t defend against, or even can’t deal with at all, then defend the platform outside the cave or retreat to the council hall to defend!”
“Understood!”, James and the soldiers behind him nodded.
“Ka Ka…”
But just as Kant ordered, the sound of a rock cracking suddenly appeared in the relic.
Everyone’s faces were solemn.
They instantly pulled out their weapons, but they orderly took half a step back.
“What’s going on? Is this place going to collapse?”
James’s face turned even uglier. He raised his head and looked at the walls above and around him, but he didn’t find any cracks. He couldn’t help but remind, “It’s not safe here, Lord Kant. We have to evacuate this relic!”
“No!”, Manid turned his head to look at the stone platform. “The sound came from there!”
Kant turned his head to look.
The intense stone cracking was indeed there.
Even the stone platform had a dent.
“That’s…”
The sharp-eyed Ravenstern ranger immediately lifted his heavy bow, his face filled with horror. “Someone’s there!”
All the footmen instantly returned to their battle status.
Manid and James’s breathing quickened.
Kant was the same.
Because at the edge of the stone platform in front of them, a two-meter wide hole slowly appeared, and a tall figure wrapped in a pitch-black robe slowly climbed out under the lifting of the pitch-black blood-vessel-like tentacles, a dangerous aura spread, and even the entire relic became dark.
“Ha… Haha… I… finally… broke the seal… and came out…”
A dry laughter sounded.
Countless pitch-black tentacles, thick or thin, floated behind the figure, baring their fangs and brandishing their claws.
The figure under the pitch-black robe slowly walked down the stone platform and stood unnaturally on the ground. After taking a few steps, she finally stood firm and turned her head to look at the beautiful woman in the complicated golden silk dress, then she turned her head to look at them. Her laughter became more pleasant and arrogant. “So… It’s you humans. You really betrayed these gods…”
“Demon… ?”
Kant opened his mouth slightly, his tone extremely grave.
Because right in front of them, that tall woman looked like a human. However, her slightly red skin, the goat horns on her forehead, the triangular tail behind her buttocks, and even the irregularly curved thighs on her lower body, she was not a human.
Instead, she looked like the succubus that Kant had seen in movies and TV shows.
“That’s right.”, the woman held the pitch-black tentacles behind her and slowly took a few steps forward. Her figure under the black robe was extremely hot and curvaceous, and her face was equally beautiful, even with a hint of exotic charm.
He looked at Kant, who was obviously the leader, and gently stuck out his tongue to lick his lips. “Offer your sacrifice. I can let you enjoy extreme happiness.”. She slightly turned her beautiful face and swept her gaze over the knights and soldiers, her voice was even more moving. “Very good, you have done well. I urgently need to replenish myself. Since you can bring these sacrifices, I will properly reward you!”
“Kill her.”
However, what responded to her was Kant’s cold order.
The Ravenstern rangers and wardens were already prepared. They instantly drew their bows and shot arrows.
“Whoosh Whoosh Whoosh –”
The arrow arrived in an instant.
Her eye sockets, forehead and chest were instantly hit by the arrow. That powerful force directly sent the demon flying. She didn’t even make a sound before she fell heavily to the ground. She struggled a few times before she completely lost her breath.
And right behind her.
The pitch-black originally energetic tentacles seemed to have lost their strength as they fell to the ground one after another.
Even the pitch-black flesh and eggs seemed to shrivel up completely.
