Why must the devil be Defeated?-Chapter 1073 - 937: Meet That One Once More

It’s clear that Lidas and Anima have a profound impression of these two Heroes.

Not only because these two Heroes achieved transcendence, but also because of their deeds in life.

"In the era of Hero Reinart, both the Divine Race and the Human Race had already begun to proliferate, prompting the Demon Clan to grow wary and create lifeforms known as Demons."

"However, although the Demon Clan was powerful, it lacked the miracle-working prowess of the Divine Race. The created Demons, intended as existing forces on the battlefield, soon spiraled out of control due to their generally low intelligence and savage nature, rapidly reproducing and becoming a global threat."

"At that time, many Demons, including certain dangerous types now extinct, such as Dragon Species, were rampaging unchecked on the land, not yet under the control of Dragon Demon Ai."

"Then, a terrifying Beast Nest swept across the entire Omni Potanssen, throwing both the Divine and Demon Races into chaos. The Demon on humans directly, targeting several large human settlements with assaults from huge Demon hordes."

"In such situations, the Divine Race was too preoccupied with protecting their rear lines, nearly abandoning those large human settlements."

"Only Hero Reinart, disregarding everything, left the camp alone to rescue the human tribes."

"For this, having reached transcendence, he took on the Dragon Breath of a hundred adult Dragons to protect humans, suffering serious injuries."

"And to allow the human tribe to retreat, he alone held the line against the Demon army, battling for three days and nights while gravely injured."

"By the time we had pushed back the threat from the rear and rushed to the front line for support, Hero Reinart had already disappeared."

Lidas explained the events experienced by the eighteenth generation Hero before his death.

Shane, Luoqi, and Iris all fell silent.

They could imagine the enormous determination that Hero possessed to make such a choice, such a struggle.

At that time, even though he had reached transcendence, he could have protected himself against the Demon army of ultra-ancient dangerous species, yet he resolutely stayed to protect humans and numerous lives.

The image of a hundred adult Dragons soaring through the sky, all breathing scorching Dragon Breath down on the human group below, with the Hero wielding the Holy Sword rushing fearlessly forward to shield many lives, being struck by the Dragon Breath capable of ignoring defenses, especially from a full hundred adult Dragons, appeared in their minds.

Even with the Holy Sword’s protection, enduring the Dragon Breath of a hundred adult Dragons in such a manner, it was inevitable that Hero Reinart would be severely injured.

In the end, he fought on for three days and nights with his wounded body, and it becomes clear what his fate was.

A transcend-level Hero perished in such a way, leaving behind a legend, losing his life.

At this moment, Anima also recounted the deeds of the seventy-second generation Hero.

"Hero Philip, even before fully maturing, was already feared by the Demon Clan, due to his ability akin to an Undying Body, allowing him to move freely on the battlefield facing a million-strong Demon army, even at the Legendary level."

"The Demons targeted him as well, attacking him once, but relying on his Unique Skill, Hero Philip managed to escape unscathed, astonishing the Three Great Races."

"He grew, smoothly reaching the Limit Level, and took steps toward the realm of transcendence, seizing the opportunity for transcendence."

"Sensing his threat, the Demon Clan decided that if he achieved transcendence, he would be the most formidable enemy to date, thus deciding to launch a full-scale attack on the front lines of the Human and Divine Races during Hero Philip’s critical moment of transcendence. Even five of the Six Great Demons joined in, stalling us, placing the front lines in grave danger."

"To save the front line from imminent destruction, Hero Philip, despite being at a critical moment of transcendence, disregarded his own state and forcibly entered the battlefield. Though he repelled the Demon army, he left behind a tremendous hidden danger."

"In this way, Hero Philip fought on the front lines for ten years until finally, his hidden danger erupted, causing his powers to stagnate, and his Unique Skill became unusable. He chose to sacrifice his life, detonating all his magic power at the heart of the Demon army, taking down hundreds of thousands of elite members of the Demon Clan with him, leaving no remains."

Anima’s tone gradually became sorrowful, rendering Shane and the others silent once more.

This was yet another outstanding, legendary, great Hero.

Shane suddenly had some understanding of why Lidas and Anima were so angry upon learning these two were awakened as the dead, their souls desecrated and their rest disturbed.

Simply because these two Heroes truly did not deserve such a fate.

They made immense contributions to the Human and Divine Races, achieved great feats for world peace, saved numerous lives, and sacrificed themselves. To the Goddesses closest to them, they were undoubtedly the brightest, most glorious, most pride-worthy comrades.

Such individuals, sacrificing for the future of the Human, Divine Races and the world, faced such desecration after death, and not feeling angry would be impossible.

Even Shane and the others, who initially had little empathy, now shared some of the experience.

A heavy mood, accompanied by a slight anger, rose, leaving the three speechless for a long time.

Only Luoqi, in addition to anger, had a somewhat complicated expression.

Remembering the Necromancer who called herself "descendant," Luoqi felt truly heavy-hearted.

(So she really is that one...)

Her actions are truly unforgivable.

Especially concerning the Mitra Kingdom, to which the Royal Family belonged.

Thinking of this, Luoqi’s feelings grew more complex.

Unfortunately, no one noticed.

"Now that I think about it carefully, there might be human manipulation behind the disappearances of Hero Reinart and Hero Philip."

Anima’s delicate face looked rather grim.

Lidas raised her voice even higher.

"It must be Helimis, that half-demon, causing trouble from behind!" 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚

Lidas felt a bit resentful.

This wasn’t baseless malicious speculation.

To use Death Magic to awaken people who once died, turning them into the dead, to serve oneself, besides consuming Death Qi, also requires the corpse of the deceased.

Now, Hero Reinart and Hero Philip are manipulated by Death Magic, becoming the dead, which can only prove that their corpses have always been in the hands of the enemy.

And the only person capable of doing all this is Helimis, who almost became the Seventh Demon.

Only he has such a long history to operate in the shadows, targeting Hero Reinart and Hero Philip.

Furthermore, those two heroes might have been dealt the final blow by that half-demon while in a critical condition.

[Shadow Annihilation] ———— If this Unique Skill is used for ambushing and assassinations, it might be the world’s most formidable power, who knows.

If Helimis truly has his sights set on Hero Reinart and Hero Philip, then taking advantage of others in peril is something he’s entirely capable of doing.

Because of this, those two heroes disappeared, and even their bodies couldn’t be found.

The corpses were taken by Helimis and later became part of the collection of the [Primordial Demon].

As a newly reborn [Primordial Demon], it is possible to acquire this war trophy from the former [Primordial Demon].

Alternatively, Danass, that man with calculated schemes, might have targeted those two corpses for their potential use even before his father passed away.

If that’s the case, the encounters with Moro and the association with that mysterious Princess might not be coincidental.

He might have known the existence of the Necromancer through some channel long ago, eventually linking to the two heroes’ corpses and formulating a plan to awaken them, deliberately seeking out Moro and contacting him, and through Moro, connecting to that mysterious Great Spirit Body.

Once such a thought arises, it’s impossible to suppress it, causing Shane to feel a slight chill.

If this is true, it proves that Danass had planned everything a long, long time ago.

Even replacing his father to become a complete demon, becoming the leader of the [Primordial Demon], and raising the flag of war against the Three Great Races, sounding the horn of war, might have been mapped out early.

A person like this, whoever faces him would inevitably feel chills down their spine, right?

Compared to him, neither Helimis nor Moro is worth mentioning.

Only such a person could disrupt the current peace, causing the Three Great Races to lose face repeatedly and falling into one trap after another within just over a month.

Such a man, what is he doing in the shadows now?

Shane suddenly couldn’t sit still anymore.

There’s no way.

Allowing a person with such calculated schemes to develop in the shadows is indeed too unwise.

Helimis ignored him, and in the end, all achievements were his, taking everything away.

The Kingdom and Divine Race ignored him, and finally suffered defeat after defeat.

Even I nearly got overturned within the world’s side, jumping into his carefully laid trap.

Such a person, capable of preparing two Transcend Level heroes’ undead as trump cards, what else might he conjure up, isn’t it quite normal?

Shane looked at the aggrieved and sorrowful Lidas and Anima, knowing he couldn’t let these two continue like this.

Though they are strong, they are not the Military God presiding over wars.

The Divine Race is like this, each with their own strengths, mastering pinnacle skills in their respective fields, beyond others’ reach.

Lidas and Anima, though the Goddess of Fate and Life Goddess, are only the Goddess of Fate and Life Goddess, not the God of War, and simply cannot win against that man with calculated schemes in this war losing Moon Demon Sela and the Military God’s support.

Intuition tells Shane that if he doesn’t take unexpected actions, the war might soon be over.

Naturally, ending in a defeat for his side.

Then, the newly reborn [Primordial Demon] comes to deal with the isolated Demon Clan and remnants of goddesses in the Divine World, even if not effortlessly, will have ample chances of success.

Step by step, such solidly laid plans ensure the newly reborn [Primordial Demon] achieves ultimate victory, it’s only a matter of time.

If that’s the case...

"I need to think of a solution."

Shane thought so, and finally considered visiting that long-slumbering goddess in the sea of flowers again.
