At this moment, Lycorina's expression changed, and her feelings became complicated.
"Anyi, will the demons return to this land in the future and destroy the homes that the orcs have rebuilt?"
"Probably." An Yi also closed her eyes, her tone devoid of any emotion.
Lycorina was silent for a moment, then sighed softly;
"Sigh... if only the demons would never return..." Lu
But this is not possible.
Even Lycorina knew this.
The demon race's ultimate goal is to conquer the entire world. Therefore, whether it's land they currently possess, land they've conquered, or land they'll seize in the future, the demon race will find a way to reclaim it all.
In other words, the demons will inevitably set foot on this land again in the future.
This is the forest where the beastmen live.
Even further into the future, they will set foot in human cities.
The current peace is only temporary; one day, a disaster that even the beastmen cannot imagine will befall this place.
"It doesn't matter."
An Yi suddenly spoke up;
"No matter how many demons come, kill them all."
If there is a disaster, then solve the disaster; if there are powerful demons, then become stronger than them.
We have now driven the demons out of this place, and we will continue to do so in the future.
We won't let them take away even a single centimeter of our land.
“Oh! If Annie says she can do it, then she can do it! I’ll do my best too!” Lycorina said excitedly.
For some reason, An Yi's calm tone ignited her fighting spirit!
Perhaps saying these words in a calm and ordinary way makes it seem like this matter is not so difficult as to reach the heavens?
"If we can do it now, we can do it in the future!"
An Yi has proven it to her countless times!
He said he could do it, and he could do it!
We will not let the demons take this land!
……
[Hero of the Thorns: It's getting late, everyone should take a break.]
There was no response in the chat group. This isn't a work group where you need to reply "received" to your boss. As long as you haven't left the group, it means you've seen it.
It's good that you saw the message; there's no need to flood the screen with "yes".
The heroes did not gather together, but rested separately in various places, and when they looked up, they could not even see any other heroes.
Milu stopped on a thick branch and sat down against the trunk.
In the pitch black, relying on the hero's simple night vision, he looked at the somewhat tattered night clothes on his body and a look of exhaustion flashed in his eyes.
"The demons that roam this forest are all at least level eight..."
Is it true or not...?
Chapter 123 Is it because they dare not come that they don't dare to come?
The types of demons have increased, and they are stronger.
Deeper into the forests beyond the Goblin Empire, there are demons whose strength is no less than that of the Goblin King.
All the demons discovered so far are level eight or higher monsters, and there are quite a few level nine demons as well.
It's not hard to deduce that there must be demons of level 10 or even higher in this forest.
The exploration has been going on for a week, and although it's not moving at full speed, it's maintaining a fairly high level of agility.
The goal was to explore the terrain in all directions and then draw a new map, but Miluko did not expect that this area would be so dangerous.
A warrior of level 100 or above can easily deal with an eighth-level demon, but the enemy has such a terrifying number of demons, plus the currently unpredictable and unknown magic.
Therefore, even a hero of level 100 or above would find it difficult to move an inch in this area.
Because they would inevitably be besieged by the demons.
If there were only level eight demons, it would be fine, but the ratio of level nine demons to level eight demons is one to twenty.
That is, for every twenty level eight demons, there is at least one level nine demon.
This is a terrible ratio.
Once engaged in battle, they will inevitably be besieged by a large number of level eight and nine demons.
Milu leaned against the tree, closing her eyes to rest...
What kind of monster race are humans going to fight?
Despite their immense power, they are scattered everywhere like insects. Will all demon territories be like this from now on?!
How can 9 brave warriors possibly kill all these demons? Four! $Three; ∞:∶●
Another 100,000... no! A million would be enough!
She wondered what An Yi's feelings would be if she saw such a "hell".
Although the other heroes traveling with them didn't say anything, they must have lost some of their fighting spirit.
An Yi usually appears very confident about defeating the demons, as if she doesn't take them seriously at all.
But... perhaps it's because he's never seen this scene before that he underestimated the demons?
If such a large number of dangerous demons are discovered within the demon territory, and there will be more to come, perhaps even he will…
Or was he aware of the situation, yet still maintained that calm and confidence?
"Let's take the intelligence back first..."
The exploration has been going on for a week, and the plan is to return tomorrow.
After all, the demon race's territory is so vast that it's impossible to explore it all in a comprehensive manner.
If they don't return by the agreed time, the Hero Alliance will have to send a rescue team to search for them.
……
They encountered no obstacles on the way back. All the adventurers who went out to explore maintained an absolutely safe distance and tried their best not to come into contact with the demons.
Demons that can be detected immediately by detection skills do not exist at this stage.
Before delivering the information to the Hero Alliance, all the heroes who went out to explore unanimously decided that Milu should first tell the other three members of the Saintess Squad the information.
After the Saintess Squad receives the information, they will then inform the followers of the Hero Alliance. ♂＆捌○№♂
Whether or not it is reported to the Hero Alliance, important information is definitely decided by Lycorina whether or not to make it public.
With the mindset that the fewer people who know before it's made public, the better, they decided to let Rikelina know about it through Miluko first.
Miluko had the same plan, and upon returning, she immediately summoned the three of them to the conference room.
Then, the investigation results were quickly communicated to them.
"...That's about it."
"Everyone... is worried about the negative impact of revealing the information, so we wanted to let you know first before making a decision." After Milu finished speaking, she looked down at the table, her eyes darting left and right, watching the other three people's reactions.
“Hmm…” Lycorina pondered for a moment before speaking, “Indeed, if everyone knew about this, it might affect everyone’s confidence in defeating the demons.”
“What’s there to be afraid of!” Layton shouted. “At the beginning, even level four demons were hard to deal with! Level five and level six demons were no match for them either!”
What are those demons to the heroes now?!
Therefore! Whether it's a level eight, nine, or ten demon, it's all an obstacle we can overcome!
There's no need to be afraid!!
Milu silently watched An Yi on the other side.
Layton is right. As long as the battle is fought reasonably, all the heroes will definitely have a chance to easily defeat these demons in the future.
but……
We cannot only focus on the level nine and ten demons in front of us.
Just a little thought? Temple, 90. 7ˇ〗Ba, ∞ling, qUn: I know, what we'll be facing next is an endless stream of demons.
Level 10? Level 20? Level 30? In the forests, wilderness, and cities of the demon race, there are countless demons.
Can ten thousand brave warriors really kill all these monsters?
Even if they kill quickly, if the demons launch a counterattack, human territory could be completely destroyed in the blink of an eye.
When that time comes, everything they need to protect will be gone, so what will they fight for?
When the heroes realize that they are not facing goblins or slimes, but a huge race that occupies 90% of the world's land, they will more or less lose their will to fight.
What was An Yi thinking at this moment?
Milu was very curious.
At this moment, An Yi nodded expressionlessly;
"That's right, the hero will be able to easily face these demons in the future."
One day we'll get rid of them all.
But not now.
"The problem is, what should we do now..." Miluko grinned.
"First, I'd like to ask you a question."
"Why do we have to clear out all the goblins?" Annie asked.
"It's because their very existence endangers both humans and beastmen, so not a single one can be left alive!"
Surprisingly, Lycorina answered immediately.
