MTL - Comprehensive Manga: a Journey Through the Supreme Being-Chapter 132

As a demon god, Heulia's strength is simply too weak.

But her authority is extremely important to mankind.

If Heulia did not allow other human beings to produce salt, but could only obtain it from some meat, it would definitely be difficult for human beings to survive in a healthy manner for a long time.

It can be said that as long as Heulia is willing, she can completely monopolize this business. There is also a reason why the Salt Country was so rich in the past.

But Heulia did not dare to do so.

If one's own people can't get the substance of 'salt', other demon gods will naturally come together and angrily destroy her, the devil **** of salt, and her people.

Heulia knew the benefits, so since the Demon God War started, she didn't dare to use her authority at all.

But if this is an era of peace, this authority will be extremely important. Whoever masters the "salt" will be able to exchange for a large number of Mora to promote economic development.

Since he is helping Morax now, Xixiang also has to think about the people of Liyue, and those people of Liyue have now become his subjects.

Perhaps in the future, the title Emperor will refer not only to Morax, but also to him, the demon **** of entropy.

"Your authority is very important, Heulia... This authority is more important than imagined. It can bring a lot of wealth and promote the development of the people's lives and work in peace and contentment."

"...I think with your intelligence, Heulia, it's impossible not to see this."

This Demon God is very smart, although under her rule, the Kingdom of Salt is now weak and vulnerable, but this has nothing to do with Heulia, it is purely a matter of strength.

On the contrary, her seemingly seceding behavior (ahfi) is really the only way for this country to survive.

"But this authority has no effect in the current period of the Demon God's War, and will only be hated by the Demon God."

Heulia sighed lightly, being weak is sin, and being weak is original sin.

The weaker party between countries has no room for resistance.

"The Demon God War is about to end, and I will end this war with my own hands..."

"...Peace will come soon, Heulia, and soon this land will be as it was hundreds of years ago, people will live and work in peace and contentment, and people will be happy and healthy."

Xixiang, who was sitting on the throne, leaned forward slightly and said in an unquestionable tone.

"Then I wish you victory and hope that you will stop this cruel war."

Heulia didn't ridicule anything, but gave her sincere blessings.

She hopes that the war will stop, that peace will come, no matter which devil wins, she only hopes that all these cruel wars will disappear.

"I will do it, so at this moment when the war is about to end and peace is about to come, your authority will become more and more important."

"...Morax is the **** of contracts. I also like contracts. Sign a contract with me, Heulia! I can protect you at the end of this war, so that you can live to the next era."

"Maybe you may not care about your own life, but you will care about the lives of your people."

"...Don't you want to see peace after the war and see your people live and work in peace again?"

"You can't refuse, you can't refuse. Since you have no land to cede to me, and no Mora to compensate me, then use yourself to replace all this, become my property, become my compensation!"

Saigo carried the long lamp, he walked slowly and firmly in front of Heulia, looking at this beautiful and gentle devil, he said that he could not refuse.

"I……"

Heulia looked suspicious.

It is true that Saigo's behavior is not in line with the thinking and actions of the devil.

Even if Morax was here, even if he would have pity on this Demon God, even if he knew the function of Heulia's authority.

But Morax would kill him without hesitation.

Because the two sides are enemies and not friends, in this period of the Demon God War, the Demon Gods have long been influenced by the 'Tian Li', and their goal is the ruling throne, and there will never be any hesitation.

For someone like Xixiang who would persuade her to surrender, and was willing to shelter her, Heulia was simply inconceivable.

How powerful is this devil, to be able to overcome 'destiny' and resist that terrifying influence.

Of course, Heulia didn't know that Saigo was not a demon in this world, and his birth had nothing to do with the island in the sky.

Heulia was moved, she wanted to agree, but she couldn't.

Because the thoughts of a small number of people who are unwilling to surrender and defend against foreign enemies are coercing the demon **** so that she cannot make a rational judgment.

Xixiang saw the predicament Heulia was facing at a glance, he laughed and said, "...I understand, Heulia!"

"...You are willing to sign this contract with me, but your citizens are not willing."

"It doesn't matter, since you are bound by the will of the people and you are bound by this country, then as long as you destroy this country, you can no longer have contact with the people."

There was a chilling coldness in Xixiang's words, Heulia looked horrified, and she hurriedly shouted: "...What are you going to do?"

The gentle demon **** looked anxious, for fear that Xixiang's so-called destroying this country would mean killing her people.

If that's the case, then what's the use of her compromising, which is not in line with her own purpose.

"Relax, I will not slaughter your people, I will make them completely disappointed in you, despair of you... Only a few people will die, and I can save you from the abyss of despair. "

"...Let me use your power, Heulia!"

Xixiang suddenly swung the lantern in his left hand forward, and as the wick in the lantern burned, an irresistible suction like a black hole came from it.

Heulia groaned, she felt her authority, her manipulation of elemental magic was uncontrollably absorbed by that lamp.

And as Heulia's power was absorbed, the flames in the long lamp burned more and more vigorously.

Saigo raised his foot and stomped lightly on the ground, the power absorbed from Heulia spread out from the sole of his feet under the blessing of Saigo's own power.

With Xixiang as the center, the stone bricks at the foot turned into salt and alkali, and the salt and alkali spread faster and faster, and in the blink of an eye, all the stones in this temple were turned into salt.

The salt field was still spreading rapidly, and the guards at the door shouted in fear and wanted to escape, but the speed of their escape was as fast as the spread of salt. In the blink of an eye, these guards all turned into sculptures made of salt.

The salt field continued to climb in all directions, and soon even the palace was turned into salt products, whether it was metal or wood, it was turned into fine salt.

Chapter 17 Cut Yourself Indemnity

"what--"

The soldiers in the palace ran out of the palace screaming in horror, but the salt spread so fast that in the blink of an eye, the entire palace was turned into a sculpture made of salt.

Each soldier maintains a gesture of escape and panic, becoming a member of this sculpture.

After the entire palace was turned into salt, the terrifying power of salt was still spreading out, gradually contaminating the last small city in this country.

It's just that the diffusion speed of the salt has begun to slow down at this time, as if it is giving the residents of the city a time to take refuge.

People are scrambling for each other. You push me and run out of town. They just took the small items that were barely valuable at home and ran out of the city amid the crowding.

Standing on the high **** outside the city, the people sheltered by the Devil of Salt stared blankly at the hometown that had completely turned into salt, and were at a loss for a while.

"What the **** happened? Who is going to tell me what happened?"

The people of the Land of Salt couldn't help crying with grief in their hearts, and they knelt on the ground and cried.

As one person cried, the atmosphere of sadness gradually spread, and I don't know how many people were sad-faced and burst into tears.

Somehow, a message gradually spread throughout the crowd, saying that the Devil of Salt had fallen, and that they had lost the **** who protected them.

For a time, the scene was even more desolate, and everyone was a godless person.

Even those who gave speeches in the market before and criticized all kinds of people who were wrong with the Devil of Salt were silent at this time.

Even if he once hated the cowardice and incompetence of the Devil God of Salt, he ceded the land and paid indemnity.

But when the demon **** who had sheltered them for thousands of years fell, everyone still felt a deep sadness in their hearts, and there was a sense of powerlessness that they had been abandoned.

But people always have to cheer up. After a long time of mourning, someone finally suggested that they must find a new demon to protect them.

In this period of war between demons and gods, in this period of coexistence of demons and humans, without the protection of demons, human beings would not be able to survive on this earth at all.

Fortunately, the Kingdom of Salt has lost a lot of land and population during the century-old Demon God War, and there are not many people left now.

There is also an advantage to having a small number of people, and you don't have to be displaced for a long time with bloated belongings.

Soon, under the organization of some prestigious people, the people of the Salt Country, like the people of Liyue, left their homes and started a journey of migration.

...

In the palace, Xixiang and Heulia stood silently for two days.

It was not until all her people left for migration that Heulia felt relieved.

"Before the Demon God's War, in order to make a deal with Guiliji, you had a road leading directly to Guiliji, and now this road is also a way of life for your people."

"...Now many demon gods are dormant and recovering, and there is not much danger on the way."

"After returning to the collection, there are immortals of Liyue stationed there. After knowing the intention of these people, they will **** them to the newly built Liyue Port."

"...How about it, Heulia, for you, this is already the best ending."

Xixiang held the quaint long lantern in his left hand, and the flame inside was flickering with a faint light.

He turned his head to look at the gentle white-haired devil beside him, and said slowly.

The nervous look in Heulia's eyes gradually subsided, and she smiled softly and weakly: "...Thank you, Lord Zarathustra."

Saigo used methods to forcibly cut off the connection between Heulia and her people. Although the connection was not completely broken, it was already extremely weak.

Many people in the country of salt believe that the salt demon **** they believe in is dead. Except for a very few particularly devout people, most people's beliefs will soon disappear.

This is also thanks to Heulia's cowardly and incompetent performance in the past hundred years during the Demon God War.

Because of her incompetence, this belief has a very weak connection.

Therefore, Xixiang felt that this demon **** was very smart. She tried to stay away from her own people in this way. She knew that one day she would definitely fall into the demon **** war.

If those people believed in her too deeply, they might die in the war with her instead.

And if you have a very simple belief in her, there is a possibility to believe in other demon gods and live.

This is the love of the Devil of Salt for his people, the love of grief, the love of his own life at stake.

"When they are integrated into Liyue Harbor, it is estimated that it will only take two or three generations for the belief in the demon **** of salt to disappear completely.

Saigo and Heulia were talking about this cruelty.

Heulia didn't care, she just shook her head lightly and said, "...As long as my people can survive and continue to reproduce, I will be satisfied."

Xixiang fixedly looked at this astonishingly gentle devil, and sighed, "...you can think that's the best thing."

"...Let's go, Heulia, the Demon God of Salt has now fallen into the Demon God War. When the war ends, when peace comes, it will be time for you to exercise your authority again."

"I saved your people and gave you a way to live. Now you are my family and my possessions!"

"...This is your compensation for this 'war', and it is also the last time to endure humiliation, the last time to cede land and pay for it!"

In the long lamp held by Xixiang's left hand, the candle inside suddenly lit up, and the light surrounded Xixiang and Heulia. When the light dissipated, the two had disappeared in this town that turned into salt. .

0･･･････････････････････････････････

Thousands of years later, this place will only become a ruin, and the Devil of Salt will also become one of the legends.

"As you wish, Lord Zarathustra!"

Heulia felt that this Lord Zarathustra was actually a gentle person like herself.

He even treats a demon like himself so gently, and following him by his side may be the best ending.

...

In Liyue Harbor, scattered candles ignited the darkness and brought vitality.

Morax, wearing a white hooded robe, stood on a high ground like this, watching the newly built city beneath his feet.

A few months have passed, and Liyue Harbor has also taken shape.

People in this era are not familiar with urban planning, so Xixiang gave a basic urban construction plan before, and let the people of Liyue build this new city according to his blueprint.

............

After a few months, this newly built harbor city is not as messy as it was at the beginning, but it is well organized, and the division of each area is very strict.

"You're back, Zaratul."

Morax felt the fluctuation of the technique behind him, mainly because Xixiang didn't hide it from him.

The Demon God of Rock withdrew his gaze from Liyuegang and turned his head. When he saw Heulia who was following Xixiang, he was also stunned.

"Heulia?"
