Volume 14: The Universe at 23 Degrees Celsius Prologue: Demon Front
'You seem to have made a mistake. Is there no war in the starry sky? As long as there is war, there will be fortifications. As long as there are fortifications, there will be combat theories. This is inevitable. Unless your enemy is not an intelligent life at all - but in that case, what is the difference between it and hunting turkeys in the countryside? I just like to listen to the wailing of intelligent creatures. That is my most beautiful music.'
The first generation of demon master craftsmen made bold statements in the starry sky. That was an era when the holy light had not yet shone.
Various fears and old gods are rampant in the chaotic and empty universe, and countless chaotic magics are brewing in the void without material form. Demons can be said to be the first group to join the ranks of space. Strictly speaking, they are the first generation to establish order to some extent. The order was created for better evil, and the reason for their birth is for this. Spreading despair and disaster in the universe, distorting their minds and doing whatever they want.
Cannibalism, lust, slaughter, self-torture, and all kinds of cults and horrific ideas began to spread to every corner of the world. The elites advocated cultural freedom, so they turned a blind eye to the blood-sucking, and attacked the crime of child abduction as the inaction of parents.
They did not really distort the entire world, but allowed the world to gradually degenerate and took pleasure in it.
The same goes for the gods of the past and the indescribable horrible monsters. These most primitive nightmares formed the only and seemingly eternal tone of the universe at that time.
However, just as the original demons and evil gods were happily galloping in the universe, the final terror brewing in this world, the ultimate terror, which was also the distortion point of the world and the ultimate test of all intelligent creatures, also descended upon the world along with their excitement and prayers.
At first, it was just a small epidemic spreading on a planet. All great things are very small at the beginning. No one cares about some incomprehensible phenomena on a planet. Because there are so many incomprehensible phenomena in the entire universe. Just as they were indulging in death and blood, one after another, death and longing gradually converged towards the most original fear, rendering the original terror that should not have any color into a dead paleness.
I don't want to die, I don't want to die, I don't want to die. At least I want to live a more valuable life, at least I want to make those monsters pay, at least I want to have some meaning, to make this world look more beautiful. Countless wails and prayers did not cause any special feelings in the demons and the old gods at the beginning, because they themselves were monsters born of fear and mind, and they could understand this desperate wails. They would not care about the consequences of these wails and the power of thoughts. After all, so many demons are born every day, and so many gods appear every day, which shows that the world is still functioning normally.
Then, with the devil's indulgence, the original fear was finally born.
Perhaps it should not be called a birth. To be precise, those were just some eggs, some nuclei, some ideological plagues that could not be described as combat power.
Although the pale flames were immature, they had already shown their potential and grandeur. They wandered on the planet, slaughtered all the evil and the old gods, and began to evolve at an unimaginable speed. By the time the demons began to realize that something was wrong, the first hall had already grown up under countless thoughts.
The initial one brought about the multiplication of two, and then the infinite three.
It can even be said that they had no idea what was going on. In the eyes of the demons, it was only a very short time before those pale warriors began to bombard the demons' space fortresses with a resolute will, and began to spread the flames of war to every corner of the universe. As if a critical point had been triggered, many of the old gods' self-cognition collapsed and destroyed themselves, some changed their appearance and joined the Holy Light camp, and some fell into chaos and began to self-decompose, and their strength dropped greatly.
The entire universe began to play the prelude to collapse. The originally cold and lonely universe gradually had a wave of warmth and cognition. The pale track began to spread throughout the universe, igniting all the source of the universe. It was as if light and darkness were truly separated today, and the world had a different color.
For demons and the old gods, that day was a day of burning, the root of all disasters and an indelible nightmare in the hearts of all gods and demons.
Shouting the name of justice, burning the terror of the entire universe.
The most original and essential fear, but it is indeed the last fear to be born.
Since then, the demons have been well aware of their own limitations, and have begun to build massive space fortresses across the starry sky. They have also begun to disperse idlers from places where the cognitive concentration was weak, artificially created magic isolation zones, and created six rounds of star ring defense lines in the universe that are said to be able to resist the end of the world. Each of them is a huge cosmic wall structure, and the overall fortifications are countless light years long. From the outside to the inside, they are -
The Sixth Ring: Magellan Line.
The fifth star ring: Tanbul Line.
The fourth star ring: Lawrence Line.
The third ring: Columbus Line.
Second Star Ring: Hooman Line.
And the final first star ring: Gaia Line.
Although the Pale Crusade has pierced and penetrated the territory countless times in history, the demons still placed their hopes on this long front.
Well, we can rely on this long line of defense to delay time, waiting for the fateful destruction to come a little later. Every route of the Pale Crusade is trampled on the painstaking efforts of the demons, but this does not mean that the demons' creations are all waste. On the contrary, in order to destroy these lines of defense, even the Holy Light has to pay a considerable price.
These defense chains built on the void are usually invisible, but they have countless tortoise-shell-like defense mechanisms inside, waiting for the Pale Expedition to attack. Now, although the Pale Expedition is much earlier than the general estimate, the demons have already made corresponding preparations and activated their own star ring chains to prepare for this unprecedented terrorist offensive.
However, just as the demons were making intensive preparations, an uninvited guest appeared in a corner of the Magellanic Ring defense line.
