1977 The difficult situation of the human race (1)
Due to the demons ‘rampage, most of the cities, villages, and towns had been severely damaged. Ruins and wreckage could be seen everywhere.
The trembling survivors hid in the corners, worried about the demons ‘pursuit while praying for the disaster to end as soon as possible.
However, hope never came. Instead, the disaster became more and more intense, and many familiar people could no longer be contacted.
In the chaotic environment, human lives were like gra.s.s, and the shadow of death shrouded the hearts of all survivors.
However, in this disaster, there were still cities that survived, although they were also attacked by the demon race. However, it was not as serious as in other cities.
The city where the ancient fiend nest was forged was one of the lucky cities.
Because of the appearance of the ancient fiend nest, the Demon Hunter headquarters mobilized a large number of people to maintain law and order.
When the disaster broke out, the city had a defensive power far beyond that of other cities, and the chaotic situation was quickly controlled.
There was another reason. The existence of the ancient fiend nest had caused a large number of fiends to gather here.
As there were many treasures in The Fiend nest, it attracted the attention of a large number of evil demons. While they were fighting for it, they were also wary of each other.
Under such circ.u.mstances, if anyone dared to lead an Army of demonic servants forward, it would inevitably cause a misunderstanding among the other demons.
If they were misunderstood as trying to seize The Fiend nest, they would definitely be attacked by a group of people, which was undoubtedly asking for trouble.
Due to their mutual wariness, a strange balance was formed, turning this place into a truce.
Even though the demons were wreaking havoc outside, and news of cities being destroyed came from time to time, the city had never suffered a large-scale attack.
Even if ordinary people were affected by the demonic aura and turned into ferocious demonic servants, they would still be killed by the Demon Hunters at the first moment.
It could be said that Tang Zhen’s actions had inadvertently saved the lives of nearly a million people, allowing them to avoid the calamity of ma.s.sacring the city.
But even so, the situation of the survivors was still extremely difficult.
The people in the city were in a state of panic, and there were very few pedestrians on the streets. Because the demons had destroyed the logistics of the cargo, the resources of the entire city had become extremely scarce.
Being able to fill one’s stomach had already become an extravagant hope. The weeds and tree bark on the roadside had long been eaten up by people.
Compared to those who had died, the residents were already very lucky. However, the difficult life made them feel that they were better off dead.
The Demon Hunter Union had been entrusted with a mission in the face of danger and actively thought of ways to solve the predicament. They had indeed mobilized some supplies for emergency use.
However, compared to the entire city’s consumption, it was still a drop in the bucket. It was not of much use at all.
As time pa.s.sed, some of the city’s residents had no choice but to find ways to leave the city and try to find food to fill their stomachs in order to survive.
Compared to the city, it was undoubtedly h.e.l.l outside the city, and it was very likely that one would never return.
However, the survivors had no choice. If they continued to stay in the city, they would still be unable to escape death.
The extremely harsh living environment made people suffer from both physical and mental torture. Many citizens could not bear it and eventually chose to commit suicide.
At the same time, there were also some people who had degenerated into demonic servants. Due to the resentment and hatred in their hearts, they became abnormally ferocious, wantonly devouring those pitiful people like them.
As long as a demon appeared in the city, the Demon Hunters would quickly move out and try to solve the crisis in the shortest time possible to prevent the situation from getting out of control.
Whenever something like this happened, the residents of the city would look on indifferently. They looked at the incomplete bodies with numb expressions.
Perhaps in their eyes, death seemed to be able to get rid of all troubles, so that they would no longer have to endure the torture of pain.
They might never know that this pessimistic view that grew by the day was actually one of the demons “methods of war.
The demons, who could control the entire world, could also use some mysterious means to constantly influence the emotions of ordinary people, making them negative and depressed.
……
In the office of the Demon Hunter headquarters, the middle-aged cultivator looked at the information in front of him with a serious expression.
Due to Tang Zhen clearing out a large number of demon nests, the Demon Hunter headquarters had obtained a huge amount of resources, which greatly alleviated the predicament of insufficient resources.
But even so, in the face of the powerful demon race, the Demon Hunter Union was still in a state of suppression.
In a short period of time, they had suffered heavy losses, and a large number of soldiers and demon hunters had died.
This was inevitable. Whether it was the number of cultivators or their own Foundation, it was absolutely impossible for demon hunters to be a match for the demon race.
“Fortunately, there’s Tang Zhen. Otherwise, at this moment, I’m afraid the Demon Hunter headquarters would no longer exist!”
The middle-aged cultivator sighed. The information he had just received mentioned that the demons had discovered the manufacturing base of the Demon Hunter headquarters and had launched a fierce attack on it.
The demons had received information that the resources obtained by Tang Zhen after clearing the demon nest had all been sent here. It could be said that the manufacturing base was a huge treasure.
How could the inborn greedy demons let go of such an opportunity?
After confirming the location of the manufacturing base, a group of fiend nest leaders swarmed over. He was afraid that if he was too slow, the other demons would take away the benefits.
The 200,000 demonic servants that had partic.i.p.ated in the attack surged forward like a tide, and the troops guarding the perimeter were crushed in the blink of an eye.
The Demon Hunters at the second line of defense tried their best to stop them, but they didn’t last long and were soon devoured by the densely packed demons.
The demon Army marched straight in, heading straight for the location of the manufacturing base and surrounding it.
Just when everyone was certain that the manufacturing base would fall, the runic magic circle that Tang Zhen had arranged back then displayed extraordinary power.
The huge runic magic circle was suddenly activated and enveloped the entire manufacturing base. Like a terrifying meat grinder, it devoured and killed all the demons that came close.
This runic magic circle was very special. It had the ability to devour flesh and blood to strengthen itself. The more demons it killed, the more powerful it would be.
The attacking demons paid a painful price, but they were unable to break through the runic magic circle. This made the demon nest Masters both shocked and angry, and in the end, they simply went into battle to attack.
However, the power of the runic magic circle was far beyond imagination, and even these demons were helpless. After a dozen demon nest leaders died, the demon Army finally had no choice but to retreat.
The runic magic circle that Tang Zhen had set up not only protected the manufacturing base of the Demon Hunter headquarters, but it also protected the lifeline of the human race.
The middle-aged cultivator frowned and thought for a moment. Then, he picked up another piece of information with a trace of doubt on his face.
According to the latest information, a huge battle had broken out in the Black Desert. The two parties involved in the battle were still unclear. It was suspected that it might be related to Tang Zhen.
The middle-aged cultivator no longer had any doubts about Tang Zhen’s strength. However, the strange buildings that had suddenly appeared in the Black Desert caused him to be worried.
According to the witnesses, the buildings were unbelievably huge, and they gave off a terrifying aura.
According to the information obtained by the Demon Hunter Union, the demons didn’t have such a mysterious building, but it was also because of this that it was the most worrying.
A group of mysterious cultivators of unknown origin would definitely make the current situation more complicated. If the other party was related to the evil demons, then the situation of the human race would become more difficult.
In order to gain the upper hand as much as possible, the Demon Hunter headquarters had already sent people to try to figure out the specific origin of these super buildings.
If they were enemies, they had to take early precautions. If they were enemies of the demon race, they had to try their best to cooperate.
The situation was getting more and more critical, and the Demon Hunter headquarters would never miss any opportunity to change the unfavorable situation.
Just as the middle-aged cultivator was frowning and thinking, his door was suddenly pushed open, and a Demon Hunter rushed in.
The other party’s face was full of panic and he shouted at the middle-aged cultivator, ” not good! A giant tower is flying in the sky! It’s right above us!
“What?”
When the middle-aged cultivator heard this, he was shocked and rushed out of the door without hesitation.
Then, he saw a giant tower that almost covered the entire city hanging in the sky above his head, emitting a terrifying aura.
