Chapter 143 The Demon King and the Thunder Emperor The Thunder
Emperor felt that his brain was out.
At first, the Sage King found him and gave him such a task. As a citizen of the Human Central Empire, he had no reason to refuse. But then again, the task of conquering the Ice and Snow Kingdom did not necessarily have to be given to him, the Thunder Emperor. There were just other strong men who could take action. If he was unwilling to take action, the Sage King would not blame him.
However, the Sage King kept saying, "You are the most powerful magician in my Human Central Empire. Who can stop you from holding the power of thunder and lightning?" This made the Thunder Emperor, who already felt that he was invincible, a little flattered. Indeed, if it was just about magic attainments, he might not be as good as Adriana, but if it was just about thunder and lightning, he, the Thunder Emperor, was not inferior to anyone in his life.
Even if Adriana used thunder and lightning magic to fight against him, she would definitely not be his opponent.
So how difficult is it to conquer an Ice and Snow Kingdom?
Then the hero and the Demon King appeared at the same time.
To be fair, when he knew about this situation, he had already wanted to run away with his army - but then again, he, the Thunder Emperor, was also a well-known figure in the Human Central Empire. How could he run away when he saw the Demon King and the Hero? How would he behave when he returned? How could he raise his head among the many nobles? How could he have the face to teach those disciples who had surrendered to him?
From the perspective of interests alone,
he could not easily withdraw his troops. So he could only play a fake match.
Pretending to fight with others, but actually doing nothing, he had already keenly realized that he seemed to be experiencing something very bad. At this time, if he was not careful, something might go wrong.
Sure enough!
The courage of the hero A. Godora when he was angry made it impossible for people to raise any thoughts of resistance. Whoever stood in his way would die.
The momentum of the entire corps suffered a huge impact. It was not an easy task just to restore the will of the soldiers, not to mention... This corps was not an ordinary corps. They were all related to the "nobles" of the Human Central Empire.
Of course, the kinship may be distant - but before the war, everyone is thinking about gaining merit. You want to join this expedition without any connections? This is very difficult. Although it is not a true noble line, it is not allowed to be destroyed here. He, the Thunder Emperor, is also one of the nobles. There are many of his distant relatives here, many of whom he himself cannot name.
So this is really a good opportunity. The morale of the team has collapsed, and you insist on me fighting? It doesn't make sense! Do
you really think that I, the Thunder Emperor, am a soft persimmon?
He himself is quite dissatisfied with the current situation. He always feels that he seems to have been calculated by the wise king and Adriana, but then again... He really didn't think so much. In theory, this war must be fought, but everyone really didn't expect the hero to intervene.
Of course, according to the current situation, Adriana's target should be the hero, but what does this have to do with him?
He has already withdrawn a long distance with the army.
But...
"Demon King, do you really want to fight me to the death?"
The Thunder Emperor knew that he had been targeted, so he had to order the other people to evacuate with the troops. He knew very well that the Demon King's target was him.
The girl with long black hair and dark pupils, who seemed to have a demonic nature, was right in front of him.
Obviously, she was accompanied by a necromancer, a sword master, and an undead, but his vision was completely distorted, and he could only stare at the Demon King in front of him... No, to be honest, he dared not move his eyes away from the Demon King for a moment.
This is the Demon King...
"The weak kid who knelt in front of me and begged for a chance of life actually called himself the Thunder Emperor, and dared to say that humans, as a creature, grow really fast!"
Yes, the Thunder Emperor had seen the Demon King.
Before the birth of the hero, when the Thunder Emperor was still a child, he had seen the Demon King.
At that time, although the major races had begun to unite secretly, on the surface, they still showed awe and fear of the Demon King as always - the major races had been waiting, waiting for the will of the gods... until the brave A. Godola appeared, and the war against the demons and the rule of the Demon King finally started.
Before that, the Thunder Emperor was once presented to the Demon King as a human genius.
The Demon King was not interested in the so-called genius. Such a genius that was presented was usually rewarded to the Four Heavenly Kings or other demon generals. For example, the vampire Li Siduowei was very interested in the blood of geniuses from various races for a period of time in his early years. In any case, being rewarded to the Four Heavenly Kings was usually not a good thing. Even if you were not killed, it was basically impossible to be loyal to humans.
Humans were just toys of the demons -
this was the general understanding of people at that time.
At that time, the Thunder Emperor knelt in front of the Demon King, extremely humble, begging the Demon King to spare his life and not to reward himself to anyone.
The Demon King agreed.
For the Demon King at that time, it was probably just a whim. People have heard of such things. If you pray to the Demon King sincerely, maybe... maybe there will be a glimmer of hope.
In fact, the Demon King at that time was probably in a good mood.
"Do you know why I spared your life?"
Mo He seemed to be in a very good mood, and she showed a humane "nostalgia".
The Thunder Emperor did not answer.
"When many people beg for forgiveness from me, they are always eager to show their own value - for example, if you let me go, I will repay your kindness a thousand times, if you help me, I will make you profit - generally speaking, I will not let such people go, after all, the world is my property. Give me a reward? It was originally mine, how can you give me a reward?"
An inexplicable smile flowed on her face: "You were very smart at that time, you just knelt in front of me and just said 'please let me go'. I always like smart people, so I let you go - but who knew that as such a smart person, you can be so arrogant and offensive now?"
"With such strength, you dare to say it. Is it a symbol that the powerful force has made you dizzy and lost your awe of the world?"
Hearing Mohe's words, Lei Di slowly closed his eyes and took a deep breath: "In other words, this time, no matter what, you will not let me go again, right?"
"How can a guy who has lost his reverence for things that should be revered not be dealt with?"
Thunder Emperor's eyes suddenly opened, lightning flashed in his eyes: "The fear and shadow of youth often take a lifetime to heal! After seeing you that time, after giving up all dignity and honor, kneeling on the ground to pray to you... my life has been... destined to live to defeat the shadow you bring!"
Thunder Emperor, who looked like a weak boy, was now surrounded by lightning: "If I can't become a symbol! Then I will never be able to defeat you! If I don't do this! I will never be able to sleep peacefully!"
"You all retreat." Mo He told the other people, "I don't like people who actively seek death, but I like to see people who know it's impossible but do it for different purposes. To defeat the shadow I bring, a good reason. I accept this challenge."
When Mo He accepted such a challenge, Thunder Emperor was a little dazed.
He remembered that from birth to the age of nine, he had been loved and praised by everyone. Everyone said, "This child will become the light of mankind and guide the progress of mankind."
However, everything changed on the day he turned nine.
He was unwilling to accept it.
He was resentful. How ridiculous was it that a genius like him was offered to the Demon King? Humans would lose their future, and humans would never be able to stand up beside the demons... But on the other hand, he was very proud - he thought that it was because his talent alarmed the Demon King, and the Demon King was afraid of his talent, so he wanted to be offered up.
But the moment he saw the Demon King, he knew that his idea was wrong.
Because the devil's expression was blank for a moment, and then he asked the people around him directly: "What's the situation with this human?"
"The human side presented you with a genius this year."
"Do humans have any misunderstandings about me?" The devil looked at the vampire Lisiduowei, "Do you want it?"
The vampire shook his head: "There is no difference between the blood of a genius and the blood of an ordinary person - to be honest, if you have to talk about the taste of blood, perhaps people with strong bodies are better. This kid has delicate skin and tender flesh, and the quality of his blood is probably average. But he seems to know lightning magic, and there is some lightning in his blood. Drinking it will feel a little tingling... It's hard to say it's a big meal, at most it's a snack. I'm not very interested."
"Then just deal with it casually? By the way, notify the humans not to send me these useless things. Anyway, they send them just to show their submission to me - I don't have anything they need to send."
The devil was so contemptuous.
It turned out that it was not because the devil was afraid of his own talents, but because of the fear of humans themselves that made humans send themselves to the devil.
How ridiculous is this?
At this moment, the boy's self-esteem, arrogance, and everything else were shattered.
His knees touched the ground, and his head was buried deep.
"Please... spare my life... give me a way out..."
There were no extra words, just such a humble plea.
He could not see the devil's expression.
He only heard "Okay, throw him out."
The boy survived.
