Chapter 515 The End of the Great Emperor (Part 1) [First Update]
A flash of fire, and the dozen demon kings that rushed towards the Flame Demon Emperor flew backwards. Even if the Molten Fire Realm was broken, the Flame Demon Emperor was not something that these mediocre demon kings could bully. On the contrary, after completely giving up the energy to maintain the Molten Fire Realm, the individual combat power of the Flame Demon Emperor was even stronger.
But without the Molten Fire Realm, the Flame Demon Emperor's home advantage was half gone. Its so-called endless energy also needs the Molten Fire Realm to transform and utilize.
Now that one-third of its vitality has been lost and the Molten Fire Realm has collapsed, the Flame Demon Emperor can only face the various attacks of the Undead Heroes and the Demon Kings of the Nanyuan Alliance alone, without any means of buffering.
Apart from anything else, the little Flame Demons that relied on the Molten Fire Realm to exist naturally disappeared after it collapsed. This alone made the Flame Demon Emperor's situation extremely bad.
Looking around, seeing Illidan entangled with the Great Demon Lord Murphy, the Flame Demon Emperor showed a trace of relief on his face. But looking at the Undead and other heroes who had surrounded him and the dozen or so Demon Lords of the South Abyss Alliance, he could only turn his unwillingness into a long sigh.
Logically speaking, the Flame Demon Emperor was able to suppress the Abyssless Land a thousand years ago, and it was finally defeated by the union of all the demon forces in the Abyssless Land, so he would not fall into such a situation now.
In the final battle of that year, although some places in the Abyssless Land had fallen - that is, the area where the South Abyss Alliance is now located, more than seventy Demon Lords were finally gathered, including such powerful people as the Great Demon Lord Dia who were infinitely close to the mythical level.
Even in such a formation, the Flame Demon Emperor was defeated, but he still survived and returned to the Lava Kingdom to fall asleep. But now, facing only the South Abyss Alliance and the Undead Heroes, who add up to less than fifty Demon Lords, the Flame Demon Emperor feels that this time he seems to be really doomed.
In fact, you can understand it if you think about it. Although Wuyuan Land dispatched more than 70 demon kings, the Lava Kingdom was not a pushover. At that time, there were no less than 30 epic-level strongmen in the Lava Kingdom.
With this offset, the Fire Demon Emperor actually faced about 40 demon kings in the battle that year. And the Fire Demon Emperor at that time was not forced to wake up from his slumber like now, and immediately experienced two wars, but was a mythical strongman at his peak.
In fact, from the Molten Realm that the Fire Demon Emperor just barely used, Illidan found that in fact, if the Fire Demon Emperor was in his prime, his strength would be stronger than him. Apart from other things, at least in the field, although Illidan's manipulation is more sophisticated, it cannot have almost endless energy like the Molten Realm.
After all, in terms of level, although they are both mythical strongmen, the Fire Demon Emperor is probably equivalent to the tenth level of the hero level, while Illidan has only entered the ninth level not long ago.
Regarding the current situation of the Flame Demon Emperor, Yu Fei, who had been watching the battle, couldn't help but flashed an old saying in his mind - a dragon swimming in shallow water is played by shrimps, and a tiger in the plain is bullied by dogs.
Since the Flame Demon Emperor was defeated and fell into a deep sleep a thousand years ago, because of the armistice agreement at that time and because he himself was also seriously damaged, the forces of the Wuyuan Land did not kill them all. And after they gradually recovered, the demon forces that were originally connected only because of the pressure of the Lava Kingdom no longer had the idea of pursuing the Lava Kingdom.
However, almost all demon cities maintain a tacit understanding - to restrict the development of the Lava Kingdom. Under various measures, whether explicit or implicit, the Lava Kingdom has not been able to recover, let alone develop. This is also the reason why the creatures of the Lava Kingdom rarely appear in the Wuyuan Land.
Therefore, until the Flame Demon Emperor was forcibly awakened, the Lava Kingdom was no longer as grand as it was a thousand years ago. The number of epic-level strongmen was only about ten, and they were all flame creatures with low potential. Even if the Fire Demon Emperor wakes up, he can't restore the lava kingdom to its glory a thousand years ago.
If not, how could such a large lava kingdom with a mythical powerhouse like the Fire Demon Emperor show signs of defeat under the attack of the Nanyuan Alliance, which is only a quarter of the power of the Wuyuan Land, and the twenty strange demon kings?
It is precisely because the lava kingdom has become very weak now and there are not many epic powerhouses; Illidan, who disguised himself as a fire demon, was able to quickly gain the trust of the Fire Demon Emperor and even become the second person in the lava kingdom.
Of course, Illidan did not live up to the trust of the Fire Demon Emperor. Whether it was the previous efforts to delay time for it to recover its strength or the ability to contain the great demon Murphy now, the Fire Demon Emperor was surprised and delighted.
It's a pity that such a junior can't grow up better. The Fire Demon Emperor secretly regretted in his heart.
It knew clearly that if it fell under the siege of more than 30 demon kings around it, the Lava Kingdom would soon be conquered by the Nanyuan Alliance. Former high-ranking officials like Gosmo would never be spared.
Thinking of this, the Flame Demon Emperor changed his mind. No, maybe there is still a way out! This descendant of the same clan is extremely outstanding in all aspects. It is really a pity to die with him. It is better to... After just a moment of thinking, the Flame Demon Emperor made the next decision in his heart.
The faces of the dozen demon kings who were blown back by the Flame Demon Emperor did not show any shame. It was not that they were thick-skinned, but that they had seen the power of the Flame Demon Emperor in the last battle and knew that they could not fight against this mythical strongman alone.
Then, these demon kings turned their attention to the heroes of the Undead. The Fire Emperor was able to be beaten to open the Molten Realm because of these demon kings from the Undead Demon Realm; and the collapse of the Molten Realm and the injury of the Fire Emperor were also the means of these strange demon kings.
Speaking of which, even these demon kings who were still friendly forces felt frightened when they felt the power of the dead silence. This is the fundamental correspondence between the living and the dead. Although these demon kings do not have the knowledge of the Fire Emperor to recognize it, it does not prevent them from feeling fear.
And now, the demon kings of the South Abyss Alliance know that they cannot kill the Fire Emperor alone. Although they don’t understand what purpose these demon kings from the Undead Demon Realm have and what kind of benefits they want to gain, at least the temporary goals are the same.
Kel'Thuzad saw the eyes of these demon kings and knew that they wanted him and others to take action. In fact, it is not that it can’t guess that the demon kings of the South Abyss Alliance are now considering some ideas that they shouldn’t have, but it doesn’t care at all.
Those demon kings may be wary of the heroes of the Undead, but if there is no sharp conflict of interest, they will not turn against each other after the war.
In fact, Zhou Kang sent these 20 Undead heroes to fight just to kill the Fire Demon Emperor to complete the mission, without any other purpose. Of course, if there is any purpose, it may be to sell the Nanyuan Alliance a favor.
The main task of the Undead System requires occupying half of the territory of the Demon Realm, and it is inevitable that the Wuyuan Land cannot be avoided. Zhou Kang, as a time traveler, naturally has such a simple method of making friends with distant countries and attacking nearby countries.
As a genuine lich, one of the four pillars of Zhou Kang, Kel'Thuzad naturally knows what killing the Fire Demon Emperor means to the Undead.
As long as the Fire Demon Emperor is killed, not only can the upper limit of the level of the replica heroes in the Undead be raised to level 8, but Kel'Thuzad himself may also be able to reach level 9 and become a mythical lich.
After the strength of the Undead has been greatly improved, it will naturally be easier to conquer the Demon Realm. On the other hand, the Undead actually had the same purpose as Illidan. They helped the South Abyss Alliance to consume the overall strength of the demon world and complete the task.
With this idea, Kel'Thuzad would naturally not disappoint the expectations of the South Abyss Alliance Demon King, and quietly ordered the final attack.
The Death Knight raised his giant sword; the Crypt Lord stabbed into the ground with his front feet to prepare for the ground spike; the Dread Lord laughed and shot out a dark green energy wave; the Liches launched Frost Nova together. In an instant, the Fire Emperor was overwhelmed by various attacks.
