During a ritual to summon demons, Aihuas finally recalled memories of his previous life.
This was supposed to be an online game developed and operated by his own company for six years. Now, h...
Chapter 1222 The Arrival of Shang Tiansi
Aiwass, who had been a little slack at first, became alert again after receiving Gray's letter.
Last year, Aiwass regarded the Ring of Tail as a doomsday disaster of the world-destroying level, and used all his strength to develop madly in an attempt to prevent it from coming.
The two Tail Ring ceremonies so far have made Aiwass gradually become a little lazy.
After all, the arrival of the Fallen Angels and the Blood Angels was all thunder and no action.
Although the Fallen Angels completely dominated and controlled the Celestial Realm, it was already on the verge of collapse before their arrival. Their arrival was merely the final straw that broke the camel's back. Meanwhile, Lucifer's Wings completely suppressed the Fallen Angels' abilities, allowing Aiwass to successfully overcome the most difficult First Tail Ring.
After defeating Tianshi for the first time, Aiwas's Sin Beast obtained the Tianshi fragment.
In subsequent battles, at least there will be a basis for victory, and operations can be carried out around this basis, rather than relying solely on perseverance, gambling on life, and praying for miracles.
The Blood Sky Master who arrived afterward could be considered a half-ally. Rather than saying that Aiwass defeated the Blood Sky Master, it would be more accurate to say that they worked together to defeat the Son of Nothingness, and then the burned-out Blood Sky Master passed on his power to Aiwass, his comrade.
Now, the Flame Heavenly Master who descended upon the Northland finally fully demonstrated the true destructive power of the Heavenly Master.
The fact that the dwarves dared to summon the Flame Master, had prepared a "backup plan", and had the confidence to carry it out, meant that they should have at least prepared a considerable number of fifth-level extraordinary people.
The original challenge to the Fallen Angels consisted of eight or nine Fifth-Level warriors. Among them was the former Eternal Pope, the "world's strongest," who died in battle. This was fairly easy information to investigate. Since the dwarves had even mastered the ritual of the Ring of Tail, they must have obtained this information as well.
Add to that the dwarves' fear of the elves... A former Eternal Pope, even without the blessing of the Holy Crown, should at least be considered to be at the fifth energy level, right?
They were confident they could complete the Tail Ring independently, and even intended to kill Yan Tiansi immediately after negotiations failed, which meant they had at least twelve Level Fives. Considering the dwarves were a frantic race, hoarding a variety of weapons in the mountains for thousands of years, it wasn't impossible for this number to be doubled.
——The result was that they were swallowed up without even making a splash.
Judging from Gray's letter, Yan Tiansi was not even injured!
An ancient race that existed before the birth of mankind, a super empire that stockpiled countless high-tech weapons and high-level extraordinary people... Under the wrath of Tiansi, it melted away in the blink of an eye like snow in the sun.
The country was destroyed, civilization perished, and the remaining survivors were forced to flee the land where they originally lived. Even the map was completely changed - even the snow-capped mountains in the north that had not melted for thousands of years turned into black mountains burning with unextinguishable flames!
A catastrophe of this scale finally reminded Aiwas of the disaster scene in another world line when Shadow Tiansi descended on Avalon... and Shadow Tiansi at that time was not even very aggressive!
"This is the real tail-binding ring..."
The huge damage caused by Yan Tiansi to the North made Aiwas completely wary of Yuan Tiansi's arrival.
If the Red Hand Gang continues to burn and kill people, there will always be a good leader who can no longer bear it.
No one can endure the approach of slow death. Before a disaster actually strikes, there will always be people who lose their minds and hysterically hope for a big one.
So Aiwas specially used his authority as the King of the Winged Ones to require the harpy people to report all intelligence to him as soon as possible during this period.
About a week passed like this.
During this time, nothing happened. Everything was as peaceful as the azure, cloudless sky of the Heaven of Rest. Aside from the increasingly intense war started by the Red Hand, no major events had occurred anywhere in the world. Even the war that had begun a week earlier was gradually winding down.
Some benevolent leaders chose to appease the people with huge concessions and astonishingly generous welfare policies. The rebels in these cities immediately lost the support of the people, fell apart in an instant, and were betrayed. Some benevolent leaders were reluctant to give up their wealth and status, so they ordered to increase the repression, and were eventually stabbed in the back by the guards and followers and overthrown by the rebels within just a few days... It can be said that they entered a peaceful state.
The Red Hand Gang, which was growing stronger and more frenzied, made the entire Anxi tremble.
Reforms, once hindered by resistance from all quarters of society, suddenly became incredibly smooth under external pressure—this was the ancient Parthian Empire, unchanged for hundreds, even thousands of years! Even those irreconcilable interests were forced to adjust under the death threat of the Red Hand Party... Those diehards who insisted on declaring war on the Red Hand Party were even assassinated by assassins and curse casters sent by others.
And the problem here is... the Red Hand Party is actually not strong at all.
However, not only did they completely disregard the lives of civilians, they also completely disregarded their own lives and the lives of their companions. This meant that the original tactic of simply killing or capturing some people to force them to surrender was completely ineffective.
They care for nothing, and fear nothing. Rather than seeking justice and reform, they are like fire in their hands—pursuing only death and destruction.
It's as scary as a roadside robber suddenly turning into an insane zombie.
But even so, they are still not invincible.
Because the Red Hand Gang was so mixed. Aside from their leader, Hassan, the rest of the Red Hand Gang would struggle to even reach the fifth level. Even Hassan himself struggled to resist multiple good masters.
If the Benevolent Masters who had reached the sixth level of energy, or their ritualists, could unite and form a small team of four, they could easily defeat Hassan. Once the leader was dead, the rest would be defeated like chickens and dogs.
——But even this level of cooperation is unacceptable to the benevolent masters.
No good leader is willing to share power with others, nor is any good leader willing to drop all vigilance and cooperate with other good leaders and obey the commands of other good leaders.
Although they are equal in name, and can even be considered "colleagues" with the same path and the same profession... the benefactors are like warlords controlling various places, and are absolutely incompatible with each other.
If I get the chance, I will definitely find a way to kill my colleagues.
They would rather choose reform and hand over some power and interests to their free people and slaves, and they would never trust other benevolent masters.
In fact, if it weren't for this mutual distrust and resistance, if the lords of a few nearby medium-sized city-states could form a joint military alliance, other lords of similar size would simply not be able to survive such a joint military encirclement. As the situation snowballs, the advantage will only grow...
The reason why the Parthians are still scattered like stars in the sky instead of forming several opposing military alliances is because "no one trusts everyone else."
And in this case.
The benefactor of Holy Spring City suddenly sent out a letter on July 1st to call on other benefactors.
The harpy people immediately brought the news to Aiwass.
At the same time, Aiwass, the benefactor of Paradise City, also received a copy.
The content of the letter was also simple - it was about some important information he had recently obtained and decided to share with everyone.
Because Shengquan City is a city-state close to the Taichu Empire, it is easier for them to receive news from Taichu.
According to information from the benevolent master of Holy Spring City, "The Forgiver" Aimaer Nur, the Taichu people secretly held the Tail Ring Ceremony yesterday.
The one summoned to the lower world was the newly promoted Tiansi, Shang Tiansi of the balanced path.
