What Demon Disaster never expected was that the tree spirits, who had always avoided war whenever possible, would actually take the initiative to attack the demons because of this incident.
He had made certain defenses over there, and was very well prepared. After all, even if he didn't guard against the tree spirits, he had to guard against humans running out of Mir and the big forest.
But now it seems that I should have withdrawn the troops here because of my continuous victories.
When the tree spirits launched a massive attack, he and his army were deep in enemy territory and were unable to escape in time to provide support.
In fact, it was exactly as Demon Disaster had thought.
This is how the demons lost the Battle of Black Gate.
No one expected that the tree spirit, who never fought, would suddenly attack the demon.
Let alone the devil's disaster, even if someone else came, he would suffer a severe setback.
This is like how an ordinary person would think that the tree next to him would suddenly slap him
The demons here also have the same perception of the tree spirits, because the tree spirits have not been active for countless years.
Lilias, who was standing beside Mozai, knew just by looking at him that he had guessed the whole picture.
"Yes, the dryads joined the battle. They suddenly attacked the defense line that became empty due to the departure of the main force, and further opened the floodgates to flood the southeastern sides of the Black Gate Fortress."
"And because of the previous incident, you led your army forward for three full days! You and your army deep in the ground are like a sharp knife stabbing into the heart of that bastard."
"We are an isolated army with nowhere to retreat or advance."
Mozai nodded and said:
"So it's a good plan!"
At that time, he must have been in a dilemma: if he left, his troops would be immediately devoured by humans, and if he did not retreat, the Black Gate would be breached by the tree spirits.
No matter which one it is, it is a loss that the demons cannot bear. Once the Black Gate is lost, the demons will lose not only a large fortress, but an entire defense circle built with the Black Gate Fortress as the main body, as well as the countless infrastructure and industries within this defense circle.
And if all the demons that followed him out were killed, then the problem would be even bigger. After all, the purpose of protecting the Black Gate is to protect these demons...
Lilias said to the demon apologetically:
"I'm sorry, Your Majesty. I should have stood up at that time. Although the attack of the dryads was fierce, if I had been there at that time, everything would have been different."
Mozai shook his head and laughed:
"Don't apologize. It's my fault that my defense was empty. It was my instruction to keep you hidden. There's no point blaming you for this. Really."
"And aren't you here now, my little Lilias?"
At this point, Lilias also said with a smile on her face:
"Yes, now I'm here, and this time everything is different!"
But soon, Lilias said to Beckrenson worriedly:
"But I am worried."
"Are you worried that the other party chose this time because they have some other killer moves that we don't know about?"
Lilias immediately nodded in agreement.
Mozai shook his head and laughed:
"I think so too. That guy must be hiding something. But since you can come to me and I can respond to you, it means that even in such a world, he is not the original!"
"My little Lilias, you have to believe that as long as the two of us stand together, nothing can stump us!"
"That's it, my little Lilias, you must understand one thing. Since the only creator, the original, will die, then there is no one in this world who cannot be defeated!"
"Go ahead and act according to our plan."
Mozai didn't say what the plan was.
Because they are gods and kings, they naturally have the highest understanding.
And they also know very well that such tacit understanding will definitely be the key to their turnaround!
Lilias nodded seriously and left the Black Gate Fortress.
Looking at Lilias who was coming and going in a hurry, Mozai first showed a trace of worry in his eyes, and then he looked up at the sky above his head.
After a moment, the demon ruler made a gesture towards the sky that all humans understood - raising his middle finger!
In response to this, Mozo, knowing that it was the devil's gesture towards him, couldn't help but lower his head and laugh.
"My old friend, I always thought you were a serious guy. I never thought you were a devil who could do such a thing."
After shaking his head and laughing, Mozo looked at the Nameless Book again.
He could not interfere with the script which was built on history.
But it was precisely because of this that Mozo understood better than anyone else that the demons at that time were bound to be defeated!
"My old friend, if you want to win this battle for your Lilias, then I must tell you."
"I want to win again for my Bernadette too!"

The subsequent developments were actually very simple, or just as Lilias and other demons reviewed after their defeat in the Battle of the Black Gate.
The demons did not give up the loophole that the Church of Justice voluntarily gave up, and it was also led by Demon Disaster himself.
This made the demons' already unstoppable offensive even more powerful.
Just one day had passed when Demon Disaster led his demon army to a place that they had not been able to reach in the previous three days.
By the next day, the demonic disaster had even forced the main force of the Church of Justice to retreat.
But by the night of the next day, the human counterattack began to gradually appear. However, the Church of Justice had already lost the initiative and could not attack quickly or decisively.
They were unable to cause any damage to the demon army led by Demon Disaster, but instead suffered repeated casualties themselves.
Neither Mozai, Lilias, nor Mozo were surprised by this. At the same time, they all knew that the real battle would officially begin in the early morning of the day after tomorrow.
On the third day, the demonic disaster continued to expand forward as madly as ever. The main force of the Church of Justice no longer avoided it, but took the initiative to start small-scale battles with the demonic disaster.
But we also always adhere to the principle of quickly breaking away and never getting entangled.
Obviously, this could not stop the advance of the demonic disaster, so the demons once again moved forward a considerable distance.
When the first ray of sunlight shone in the early morning of the fourth day, Mozai quietly walked out of the woods where his army was stationed. After leaving the woods, all he could see was an ancient city with an extremely rough appearance.
This was once the territory of demons, but was later captured by the Church of Justice and transformed into a bridgehead and base camp for attacking Black Gate.
As long as we can take this place, humans are doomed to fail.
At the same time, his little Lilias was able to escape successfully.
Although this means separation, isn't separation precisely for the next real reunion
Mozai laughed softly and then resolutely walked towards the ancient city.
As the demonic disaster advanced, countless armies of various demons followed out from the woods behind him.
At first glance, it was extremely shocking and terrifying!
And such a shocking scene is not only happening in this place today.
In front of the Mir and Great Forest next to the Black Gate Fortress.
The demons in charge of garrisoning here noticed early on that the Mir on the opposite side was somewhat different from the big forest.
In the field full of tree stumps, the forest was eerily silent.
Under Lilias' instructions, the demons quickly stood in their respective designated positions.
At the same time, when the last demon arrived at his post, the demons also noticed that the woods in the distance began to move.
Soon, a dull sound came from under his feet.
Such a sudden change made every demon here swallow their saliva involuntarily.
Even though they are unscrupulous demons, they also feel fear when facing the wrath of nature.
Because they all know what's coming next!
That is an ancient race that was originally modeled after dragons!
Finally, the first tree spirit strode out of the woods and let out a deafening roar at the demons.
Countless tree people came out from Mir and the Great Forest at its call.
The movement looked extremely slow and even funny, but if you add the towering figures of the tree people, then it would be a terrifying scene with a unique sense of power!
In normal history, the tree people broke through the demons' defenses in this way and destroyed the dam to flood half of the Black Gate.
The demon's offensive was completely crushed as a result.
For the demons at that time, their only possibility of turning the tables was to have a powerful enough being who could help them temporarily withstand the attack of the tree people.
In the past, this would have required at least a day of endurance, because one day was the shortest amount of time the Demonic Disaster could take to return safely with the demon army.
Now, it doesn't take a day to complete.
Because the army of the demonic disaster has fought quite far, so that humans have reached a point where they have no way to retreat.
The sharp knife finally pierced the human's chest. Just by pushing forward a little, the suddenly appearing enemy could be completely killed!
How is it possible that the demons with Lilias at the same time cannot even gain this little time
As for what Lilias said at the Black Gate at that time, that the demonic disaster must appear in Mir and the Great Forest in three days.
That was just a small inducement based on the tacit understanding of both parties. Because they all knew that Tyr must be watching them!
This and some subsequent corresponding arrangements may not be of any use at all, but if used, it can catch the opponent completely off guard!
For them who are in other people's scripts, their greatest weapon, apart from themselves, is this kind of top-level tacit understanding that needs no words!
When the first tree man reached halfway, tiny blood-red fragments began to appear around its body.
But it didn't care about this, because the tree man's body was enough to withstand most means of attack.
The weapons of swords, spears, and halberds are nothing but ridiculous tricks that cannot even penetrate the bark of a tree.
This is the confidence that the tree people have accumulated over countless years. It's a pity that today such confidence has turned into a pure joke.
Because their opponent is no longer this group of weak demons whose elite have been drained away, but the Demon King Lilias!
So when the tree man was about to walk under the demons' castle.
It and its companions around it, which were also wrapped in blood-red fragments, were trapped in a blood mist under the simultaneous explosion of the blood-red fragments.
This is not their blood. Tree people have no concept of blood.
This is the manifestation of Lilias's ability - mental plague!
Lilias is a demon who plays with people's hearts.
Her power can contaminate the mind of every enemy like a plague.
This can be gradual or sudden.
The two archangels of the Church of Justice wanted to deny humanity, and it was actually Lilias's fault.
Because in Lilias's countless years of planning, she was not only busy arranging the god-level resurrection ceremony, she also did many things in many places that the Church of Justice failed to notice.
One of them is to let the right people at the right time, and let the two archangels who are managing the believers on behalf of the gradually losing heart goddess see the 'correct human nature'!
And step by step, he used such observations and discoveries to transform the two archangels' cognition, which was gradually distorted due to the increasing deterioration of human nature, with a kind of spiritual induction that no one could find any fault with.
Lilias had also made such a plan for some other members of the Church of Justice, but the investment was not as huge as that of the two archangels. But when a little adds up, it is still a terrifying number.
This won't turn them into Lilias's puppets, but it can achieve the same effect in a slow but safe enough way!
That's why the secret meeting in the Central Cathedral went so smoothly.
Plus those church members who were deliberately "let go" by Lilias.
It can be said that as long as Mozo is there for a few days at night!
The Church of Justice, unable to reach an agreement, is bound to experience a tragic civil war that only the devils would be delighted by!
And now, Lilias naturally no longer chose such a long induction.
She chose a mental plague that was obviously wrong at first glance but was quick and effective enough!
When the tree people outside the blood mist saw their companions wrapped in the blood mist, they summoned hurricanes to try to blow away the strange red mist.
