Chapter 924 The Devil's Means

"What does this mean?" Roland asked in a deep voice, looking at the few pieces of animal skins spread out on the table with a blank expression.

At this time, his heart was extremely angry. The devil not only sped away after launching the attack, but also left a revenge declaration, which is simply a naked provocation to Neverwinter City. But the more it happened, the more he knew that he had to restrain himself.

The officials looked at each other, no one dared to answer.

Apart from the unwillingness to face the king's wrath, the obvious meaning of the pattern on the hide is also the main reason.

The giant wolf-shaped creature was no doubt a reference to Lorgar.

The other paintings show kneeling humans, bound witches, burning walls, and corpses and ruins.

Although its lines are very simple, they are very easy to understand when they are connected together.

This is a threatening letter expressed in patterns.

——Hand over the wolf girl, put down the weapon and surrender to life, cover up the murderer, and insist on resisting death.

Roland swept over the officials in the hall one by one, took a deep breath, and tried his best to calm down. Although not everyone showed an expression of never giving up, and some even showed timidity, but fortunately, no one suggested that the witch should be handed over to the devil.

"Your Majesty, what the other party wants to convey is not simply intimidation or persuasion, but a trap!" In this repressed silence, a curtain of light unfolded on the wall, and Pasha's voice entered his mind. , "I have learned from Sylvie what happened, please don't believe every word the devil says, this is their usual practice!"

Her tone was a little urgent, as if worried that he had made the wrong choice.

And Roland also heard something strange.

"Have you encountered something like this before?"

"To be exact, it was the former kingdom of mortals." Pasha said solemnly, "During the First War of Divine Will, the devil used this method to divide the connection between mortals and witches, and gradually eroded the realm of dawn."

Following the ancient witch's narration, Roland quickly understood the meaning of "trap".

In that era when ordinary humans and witches ruled together, in addition to being aggressive on the battlefield, the devil would also put pressure on the opponent from the side, such as suspending the attack after handing over the witch. Witches are always in the minority compared to ordinary people, and there is no need to hide their abilities, so they are easy to identify.

In order to save their lives, those cities where witches occupy a weak position often choose to do so. Therefore, some witches are captured or killed by their own people when they return to the camp after fighting bloody battles with the devil on the battlefield. In such a situation, the estrangement that existed between witches and ordinary people gradually intensified, and what further worsened the situation was an inhuman betrayal.

In the middle of the War of Divine Will, the lords of the two central cities formed a coalition to fight against the devil. The only difference between the armies was that one was dominated by witches, while the other was entirely composed of ordinary people. In a fierce battle, the lord of ordinary people suddenly fell to the devil, cut off the witch army on the way to retreat, and used the stone weapon of God's Retaliation. The exhausted witches, who had lost more than half of them, were still annihilated despite their last resistance. Their leaders were shown by the owls, and the living witches were all turned into slaves, except for a small number of witches who were handed over to the devil.

This betrayal was later called the "Break of the Twilight" by the federation, and regarded it as an unforgettable lesson, that is, from that day on, the human race gradually divided into two groups.

However, the city that surrendered to the devil did not exist for long, and handing over the witch was just the beginning. When the enemy outposts continued to advance, and they could reach the land of those lords, they would not hesitate to raze it to the ground. The human grand duke who launched the twilight break was no exception. He built a fog storage tower in the city under the instruction of the devil, and also sent people to help the enemy build outposts and provide information... Even so, he did not enjoy his old age. There are rumors that he was imprisoned by the devil and starved to death in the lord's castle, and some people said that he escaped from the territory after knowing that the devil wanted to exterminate mankind, but was killed by the vengeful witch... In short, as the battle of divine will came to an end, mankind also Losing control of the Dawning Realm, most of the territory has become an insurmountable restricted area, and the red fog entrenched in the skyline is a lingering nightmare for all those fleeing.

It was this disastrous war that gave birth to the Federation, which eventually evolved into a massive political entity that ruled the Fertile Plains for hundreds of years.

At the end of the narrative, Roland also heard a shocking rumor from Pasha.

"There is no real record of this incident, it's just a secret story circulating in the upper echelons of the federation - the devil's threats and alienation methods are extremely clumsy, but they were learned from humans."

"What did you say?" As soon as the words came out, he realized that the other party had said these words to himself alone.

Sure enough, the officials in the hall looked a little surprised, as if wondering why he suddenly asked this question.

"It is rumored that before the first Battle of Divine Will started... No, it should be said that someone had come into contact with demons earlier - they were no different from beasts at that time, and it was a human who imparted knowledge to them." Pasha whispered, "A few people think that this may be the reason why the later high-level demons tend to take human form. However, the three seats think this is completely nonsense, and they forbid the public to discuss privately, so only the upper-level witches have heard of it. The rumor."

Roland held his breath and tried to communicate with the ancient witch mentally, "Do you believe it?"

"I don't know," Pasha unexpectedly did not give a definitive answer, "if it is true, it can only prove that communicating with the devil is tantamount to suicide."

Roland pondered for a moment, then asked what was clearly missing from the story, "The rumored human...is it a witch or an ordinary person?"

The latter sighed lightly, "Both theories have been circulated."

It seems to be an irresponsible rumor.

In addition, the practice of the three seats of the Federation is understandable. No matter how the devil becomes an enemy, since their purpose is to destroy human beings, the corresponding method is only tit-for-tat. He changed the subject, "If the threatened kingdom is indifferent, what will the devil do?"

"The attack will continue until the lord surrenders, or the army is overwhelmed." Pasha replied, "This set is very effective for those small towns that are weak."

"In other words, they will come again, right?" Roland sneered, "Barov."

"I'm here!" The manager stood up immediately.

"Doing good care work, there is no better way to publicize than letting the blood of the enemy pay tribute to the sacrificed soldiers," he said word by word, "As for the traps? I will let the devil know that this is not the first war of divine will. It's time."
