Demon King, Don’t Run Away

Chapter 1168: There is consensus, but there is no consensus at all

Views:

[Collecting the Corpses and Putting Them in Coffins] also knew that this situation was too ideal, so as the initiators, they also made certain concessions.

But this concession could not satisfy the appetite of others at all.

In order to dispatch troops as quickly as possible to deal with the Curse Cult, Wangwu Idlu explained as much as possible at the meeting the disasters that would be brought about by the devil's advent to the world, trying to convince everyone present not to delay the expedition for their own interests.

The problem is that no one present has ever actually seen a demon, and their understanding of demons is limited to various legends.

Some even believe that [Collecting Corpses in Coffins] wants to defeat the Curse Cult as quickly as possible in order to gain unknown benefits, and so keeps exaggerating based on the legend.

Someone at the meeting raised the question that if the demons were really as powerful as the legend said, how could they be summoned by such a small curse sect and obey them

Wangwu Idlu made a bold assumption that the people of the Curse Sect might not want to drive the devil, but hope that the devil would drive them. They hated this world and wanted to rely on the power of the devil to reshape the world itself and create a new order.

Upon hearing Wangwu's hypothesis, everyone present was surprised.

Does such a ridiculous cult really exist in this world

When encountering something counterintuitive or difficult to understand, many people's first reaction is to question and suspect.

Even the senior executives gathered here are no exception.

There is currently no evidence to prove that [Collecting the Corpse into the Coffin] is true, and this may be just another exaggeration of [Collecting the Corpse into the Coffin].

Can the Curse Cult summon the devil

Bishop Usger felt that they should have found some ritual to summon demons.

It was because of holding that ceremony that the Curse Cult dared to hunt down the Saint and offend the Goddess Cult.

Regardless of whether the Curse Cult can finally summon the devil, the fact that they dared to attack the Saint is already a heinous crime, and they must be eradicated.

Unfortunately, it is still unclear how powerful the Curse Cult is.

Although Usger has agreed to cooperate with [Collecting Corpses into Coffins] and share the same hatred and enemies, she also knows that this operation is somewhat dangerous.

However, what Usger was afraid of was not the devil, but the cursed sect that gathered the people together.

Usger also knew a lot of legends about demons, and she thought that demons might not be as powerful as they imagined.

The brave Laux had defeated the devil before, and about a year ago, Usger had encountered a situation where someone was using a magic wand that sealed the devil to purify it.

According to the bishop who performed the purification at the time, there was indeed a different kind of darkness in the wand, but it didn't take much effort to deal with it.

At that time, the bishop asked the young man riding a wolf who brought the wand for purification where he found the wand and whether he knew anything.

The young man riding the wolf told everything that he had experienced in detail. He also described the demon as very powerful. The magic wand was activated in time to seal the demon, and they survived.

It is said that on the way they were attacked by a cursed sect who tried to steal their wands, and the girl who was traveling with them was injured.

There are often people who deliberately exaggerate their opponents in order to show how powerful they are, but Usger is more inclined to believe that to the wolf-riding youth who delivered the magic wand, the devil is indeed an invincible existence.

But for the Goddess Cult, it is different.

The goddess eliminated the demons from the world, allowing the world to move towards light and prosperity.

There are many special sealing techniques and powerful holy light skills within the Goddess Church. The holy light can dispel darkness and is like a natural enemy to the devil.

Usger was fearless. She even thought about letting the Curse Cult summon the devil, and then using her own power to seal the devil in front of the Curse Cult.

In this way, perhaps it would be possible to awaken the people who have been bewitched by the cursed sect and make them believe in the Goddess religion again.

However, Usger had no way of confirming how many fanatics in the Curse Sect had already passed away.

Holy light can deal with demons, but it cannot deal with those fanatics.

As one of the bishops of the Goddess Church, Usger not only has to take back the power of the Saint, but also has to protect the safety of the believers.

The goddess created the greatest god in the world. In order to thank her for this gift, someone should charge forward and stand at the front to resist the fanatics and protect these messengers of God.

Only when safety is ensured can the Goddess Cult take action to dispel the darkness for mankind.

The meeting lasted for a long time, no one was able to convince anyone else, and there was no way to reach a consensus.

After everyone thought about it, they decided to adjourn the meeting and go to their respective rooms to rest and tidy up.

After leaving the meeting room, the two people who [collected the corpse and put it in the coffin] walked in the spacious corridor, feeling helpless.

As soon as they returned to their accommodation, the leader Wangwu Idlu sighed:

"It's more difficult than I imagined. I thought I could organize an attack early, but until today, I'm still standing still."

Ikaro Flo also grasped his long white beard with a hint of helplessness.

“Although we know we can’t delay this any longer, we also can’t make any more concessions.

The strength of us spirit controllers depends on the strength and number of the spirits. The darkness will completely devour and destroy the spirits we control, making them unable to regenerate.

If too much manpower and material resources are invested, all efforts will be made to deal with the Curse Cult.

When the demon king descends, we may lose our ability to protect ourselves, and disappear in the long river of history like many adventure groups in the war against the demon king."

The period when the Demon King descends is also the time when the S-class adventure groups change most frequently.

Many S-class adventure groups that were originally active in the world will be replaced by new S-class adventure groups that emerge like mushrooms after a rain for various reasons.

[Collecting Corpses into Coffins] has the function of accepting people with psychic abilities, cultivating them carefully, guiding them correctly, and preventing them from going astray.

Ikaro Flo couldn't imagine how many psychics would be discriminated against and go astray if [Collecting Corpses in Coffins] disappeared, which would lead to further discrimination against psychics.

This cycle repeats itself, forming a vicious cycle.

Ikaro Flo didn't know whether there had been any organization like theirs in this long history.

If so, is that organization troubled by such problems as they are now

Wangwu also knows what Ikaro Flo is thinking now.

It would be extremely difficult for them to deal with the curse sect whose background they didn't know how deep it was, so they planned to join forces with others.

Although the Goddess Cult and the Terun Republic agreed to cooperate, they were not active.

This lack of enthusiasm stems from their ignorance of the curse sect.

The Curse Cult was quite cunning. Leader Wangwu tried his best to explain the importance of this action to those present, but he could not produce any evidence to prove that everything he said was true.

There was only a consensus that the Curse Cult was dangerous, but no consensus on how dangerous it was. From then on, it would be quite difficult to promote joint operations.

Just when President Wangwu was frowning, Ikaro Flo received a call from his disciple Hualan.
