“Even so, as long as Darkmoon Village is occupied by the demons, they will eventually discover the existence of the fjord!” Instructor Tao shook his head and sighed helplessly.
“This is indeed a problem. It seems we need to convene a meeting of all the households in the village immediately. We need to hear everyone’s opinions on how to make a decision.” After a moment’s thought, Mr. Zuo made his decision.
Instructor Tao nodded in agreement. Next, they arranged for the villagers to notify the heads of each household in the village to come to the thatched hut for a meeting. Then, the two looked at each other and simultaneously looked at Wang Yao, who had been quietly listening to their discussion.
"Wang Xian, according to etiquette we should let you stay in the village for the night, but the situation is urgent now. We beg you to go down quickly and find the God Clan army as soon as possible before the fighting starts here. Our only hope for Dark Moon Village to escape death this time rests on you."
Instructor Tao said to Wang Yao.
"But... there are hordes of evil spirits down there, and... it's not really convenient for me..."
Wang Yao frowned. That damned Instructor Tao was still urging him to become cannon fodder. How dare he say it so bluntly, without even bothering to cover it up? Did he really think Wang Yao was stupid enough to risk his own life to save the villagers of Dark Moon Village?
"Do you have any hardware stores or anything like that around here? I need some tools and materials." Wang Yao thought to himself that he should just make his demands. Since they wanted him to be cannon fodder, he might as well just give them the materials he wanted for free.
"What...what do you need the tools for?" Instructor Tao and Mr. Zuo both looked at him in astonishment.
"Um... Instructor Tao, right? Your brothers, more than ten divine soldiers, all died on their way to call for reinforcements. And this Li Anyue was a war god, right? If I hadn't saved him, he'd probably be dead by now. This... you didn't even ask my rank before sending me to fetch reinforcements for you?"
"You certainly have a lot of faith in me, but the problem is that I haven't even reached the Golden Core stage yet. I really don't have much confidence in myself, so I thought I'd get some tools and materials to go down the mountain and make some equipment for you guys to fetch reinforcements. Don't you think that's the right thing to do?"
Looking at Coach Tao's innocent face, Wang Yao cursed inwardly. He thought, "Damn it, how could the gods have such a despicable and shameless person? This has really changed Wang Yao's understanding of the gods."
However, Wang Yao still tried his best to suppress his emotions and gently pointed out to Coach Tao the fact that he had deliberately ignored it.
"This...you...you...you're an immortal! How could the demons treat you the same way they treat us gods? You just need to avoid provoking the demons, and under normal circumstances you can safely return to the rear of the divine realm." Instructor Tao stared wide-eyed in bewilderment.
“Uh…” After hearing Instructor Tao’s explanation, Wang Yao was stunned. Sure enough, he was an immortal, not a god. He wasn’t actually confused about his identity, but he had died too tragically in the first two trials, which made him automatically classify the demons below the mountain as the enemy.
Actually, what Coach Tao said is right. If the demons treated Wang Yao as an enemy, wouldn't Coach Tao and the others do the same? But the truth is quite the opposite. Apart from the hunters, even though Gao Chong knew that he was a blacksmith, didn't he still help him escape?
So, it seems I misunderstood Instructor Tao? But during my first trial, those inferior demons were clearly not hunters of the demon race, so why did they attack me the moment they met and bite me to death?
“How can the demon race be compared to your gods? I encountered a group of inferior demons on the Howling Plains before, and they attacked me as soon as they saw me,” Wang Yao said, shaking his head.
"That's not entirely unexpected. Lesser demons are just a bunch of mad dogs. They only know how to reproduce and kill, and they have no intelligence at all. However, their attack power is low. Since you have already established your foundation, they should not pose a threat to you, right?" Instructor Tao still couldn't quite understand.
“They pose no threat to me, but if I kill them, will it attract war demons, fierce demons, or the like, and they will treat me as an enemy?” Wang Yao then asked.
"Hmm... there is still a possibility, it seems I didn't think it through. The lesser demons are too widely distributed below, it's really difficult for you to avoid them and go to the rear to ask for reinforcements... sigh!" Instructor Tao scratched his head and sighed helplessly.
He was just a captain in Darkmoon City before, and he wasn't particularly clear about the relationship between immortals and demons. After hearing Wang Yao's words, he could only force himself not to beg him.
"You just said you needed tools, what are you planning to do?" Mr. Zuo suddenly interjected.
"After I accidentally triggered the mechanism and came here, I found that I couldn't use my magic anymore, so... I wanted to make some weapons and armor, otherwise, if I'm unarmed, it will be a problem to even protect myself from the demons," Wang Yao replied.
"You can't use magic?" Upon hearing Wang Yao's words, Mr. Zuo and Instructor Tao exchanged glances and couldn't help but gasp. Even as gods, they knew that immortals' abilities lay entirely in magic. If one couldn't use magic, then there would be no difference between an immortal and a mortal.
Even if they still harbored some illusions about Wang Yao, they had to immediately and completely dispel them upon hearing this news.
Wang Yao nodded dejectedly. So far, no hunters had come looking for him, so he guessed that what General Pei said was true. As long as he didn't use his magic, the hunters wouldn't be able to find his location. Therefore, Wang Yao was determined not to use magic unless absolutely necessary.
"You don't need to make any weapons anymore. Just stay in the village. When the village falls, you'll be empty-handed, and the demon foals probably won't bother you. But if you have weapons, like you said, once you kill a demon foal, the consequences will be hard to predict," Instructor Tao said firmly, shaking his head.
