Speaking of Lycorina, she didn't let her guard down even after returning to human territory. Lu
Although she could sleep soundly through the night every day, she still underwent long periods of sleepless training.
Because she could sleep peacefully every day, she decided to do endurance training.
That is, it stays awake the whole time before it falls into a deep sleep.
Her current record is two days and two nights without sleep.
As a result, he would collapse onto the bed and be impossible to wake up, sleeping for half a day.
After waking up, she continued her endurance training, refusing to sleep until she absolutely couldn't resist anymore.
When she woke up, she didn't sit cross-legged idly; instead, she used that time to browse through a vast amount of information about the entire human territory.
From this, they also obtained a great deal of information about other regions and the heroes.
The damage caused by the lower-level demons has been completely resolved.
Almost all areas closest to the human border have been designated as "low-risk areas".
Starting with the creation of a large number of puppets by the "Thousand Heroes," more and more heroes with similar abilities began to emerge, creating an "army" capable of protecting villages and towns.
It could be a puppet made from the corpses of demons, a large number of elemental creatures that actively attack other demons, undead guards that scare children at night, or a giant beetle that is incredibly tough and deals high damage.
Furthermore, the orcs also assisted in guarding the area, turning large tracts of territory outside the human borders into forbidden zones for the demons.
Although the demons on the border have been mostly wiped out, the presence of these powerful guards truly puts the common people at ease.
They can live and work in peace and contentment, no longer having to flee in terror every few days, and no longer having to worry about their lives!
Upon seeing this, Lycorina couldn't help but smile knowingly.
Isn't this the future she wants to see, the future that all of humanity longs for?
Humans no longer need to worry about demonic invasions!
In addition, the heroes gained a lot from their expedition into the demon realm.
A great deal of information about the demon race has been submitted from all over the world, and a large number of demon illustrations have also been shared.
Although reading the data won't unlock the encyclopedia, the information brought back can help humans understand the demon race.
For example, one can determine the evolution of demons in a region by observing a large number of demons from the same area.
This includes analyzing the races of the high-level demons in the region and the roles played by the low-level demons.
There will inevitably be things that can be used, and more intelligence will allow for more in-depth research.
In short, the overall plan for the entire human territory is currently progressing steadily and positively.
The heroes suffered low casualties, and the demons had little chance of discovering what the heroes were investigating.
After all, apart from the demons in the wild, the demons in the city had no idea what these humans were up to.
It's no exaggeration to say that the demons' most terrifying enemy is approaching them.
What's terrifying is that they have no idea of the existence of these enemies, let alone that the enemies are trying to figure out their secrets.
Furthermore, they used this intelligence to plan how to eliminate them.
The most terrifying kind of killing intent is the kind that cannot be sensed.
There's another piece of information that Lycorina is very concerned about;
That was the battle concerning Silvermoon Fortress.
According to intelligence, Silvermoon Fortress has destroyed all the surrounding demon cities whose highest combat power unit is level seven demons.
But behind these demon cities, they found an even more powerful demon city with a recommended level of [100~300].
It's important to know that the bravest people in all of humanity right now have only just broken through the level 100 mark after surviving various major disasters.
What exactly is the concept of an enemy with a recommended level of "300"?
This is an enemy that cannot be defeated by heroes simply by adding 1+1+1=3.
Lycorina was worried that if the enemy retaliated, they would find that humanity's actual combat strength was not as great as they had imagined.
If the enemy discovers that humanity's strength is not great, they will inevitably intensify their attacks on human territory.
It's a foregone conclusion that Silvermoon Fortress will fall. What's even more terrifying is that the demons will use this opportunity to open a breach in human territory and launch a massive attack.
That could absolutely be called the most terrifying disaster since the birth of heroes.
Because even a single soldier on the opposing side requires a level 100 warrior to contend with.
Even if ten thousand heroes used their special abilities to fight the enemy, it would only amount to exchanging tens of thousands of enemy troops.
But the demons number in the millions. If they continue to send troops in a short period of time, how can the heroes withstand it?
That's the ideal situation.
The truth is that the battlefield is ever-changing, the demons' abilities are incredibly diverse, and not all of the heroes' special abilities are effective in killing.
If a real battle were to break out, even ten thousand brave warriors would likely be unable to withstand the demons' fierce onslaught.
Then came the crushing defeat. Faced with the powerful demons, human territory was like a flood invading the land, and was immediately swept away.
Many heroes will sacrifice themselves at that time, and the heroes who are re-selected will be far from being a formidable fighting force. 7
Perhaps... humanity's extinction will be nothing more than this one calamity.
What's even more laughable and terrifying is that this was all done by offending a mere viscount of the demon race.
It's like kicking over a guard dog of the demon race, and that dog then rushed over and killed all of humanity.
Lycorina's soft brows furrowed. (Old)
"We must improve our strength quickly!"
Not just her, not just the Saintess Squad, all the heroes need to improve their strength as soon as possible. (Seven)
With the current abilities of all the heroes, they can't even protect themselves, let alone protect all of humanity!
The previously held sense of relief and improvement could be easily overturned by a mere demon viscount!
but……
How can I quickly improve my skills?
How can we raise all the heroes to a level sufficient to protect themselves before disaster strikes?
How much time and how many "high-level demons" do you need to kill to level up from level 100 to level 300?
Moreover, simply defending oneself may not be enough; if one manages to hold out, the enemy may very well send even stronger troops.
They need more than just self-preservation; they need deterrence.
Lycorina didn't see anything wrong with the decision regarding Silvermoon Fortress.
Because the demons have already attacked, and they've even used various methods to attack from multiple directions.
If the heroes don't go all out to defeat their opponents, they will still take advantage of the heroes' momentary lapse in concentration to launch a surprise attack, ultimately causing casualties among the people.
Hitting them all will provoke them.
There's a risk in hitting only halfway.
This is war; there can be no perfect outcome.
Since there are always advantages and disadvantages, killing all of them actually intimidates them and prevents them from making any rash moves.
Lycorina recalled what Anie had taught her: the demons' fear of death. She could probably guess what the so-called "Black Raven City" was up to right now.
Before launching a full-scale attack, the enemy will inevitably try to probe the heroes' strength.
Only when the enemy is found to be weaker than oneself will one resolutely take action.
"...!"
Suddenly, a brilliant idea flashed in Lycorina's mind.
Demons are afraid of death, so they will definitely delegate orders layer by layer, and they will prioritize gathering intelligence through combat.
To put it bluntly, the other side is definitely trying to infiltrate human territory.
Among the demons, there are demons who look like humans, but they will be immediately identified by the encyclopedia, and they do not use human language.
Thinking of this, Lycorina came up with a delaying tactic!
She scribbled furiously on the paper—
[Using a clever plan, they planted a demon spy in human territory...]
Take good care of it.
……
Meanwhile, Hilo and Marley returned to Silvermoon Fortress.
The first thing to do upon returning to the fortress is to inform all the heroes of the results of the discussions held in the Holy City.
"After discussion, we believe that the enemy will definitely send spies to spy on us."
Therefore, we decided to unleash our full power when the enemy sends demons to infiltrate and investigate, so that the enemy would be wary of us.
Especially when the enemy sends high-ranking demons to spy, it is necessary to use special abilities to kill them quickly.
After Shiloh finished speaking, Shislin, who was standing next to him, suddenly handed him a letter.
“Sister, this is the advice given to us by the Holy Maiden,” Hissline said somewhat nervously.
This is a letter from the Holy Maiden!
She hasn't seen it yet.
Hilo was taken aback: "Saintess?"
Then open the letter.
The first sentence is;
[Using a clever plan, they planted a demon spy in human territory...]
Take good care of it.
Hilo: "?"
