Saving the World in an Apocalypse-Style Text Game-Chapter 958 - 448: The Seven Demon Lords’ Personal Guards, An Alliance Invitation from the Executor_2
This treatment within the Demon Clan was incomparable, so much that for a moment he was somewhat confused as to which side was the ally.
[You follow the command, approaching the throne, lifting the "Demon Crown," and placing it upon your head...]
[You have obtained the "Demon Crown" (Special Equipment)!]
[The "Demon Crown" (Special Equipment): A crown completely made of skeletons, it not only represents the leadership status within the Demon Clan but also conceals some type of mystical power. Only those who have received the collective recognition of the Demon Clan can wear this special piece of equipment.]
[By wearing this equipment, you can fully control the mighty Demon God’s Power left in the "Demon Temple," executing commands such as defense, attack, and imprisonment.]
[The current remaining Demon God’s Power is: 100/100]
[The moment you donned the "Demon Crown," you felt as if the entire "Demon Temple" was not an inanimate object, but rather an ancient demonic beast buried beneath the ground.]
[This ancient beast possesses a mighty power equal to that of a Demon God and follows your orders completely!]
[Beneath the throne, the "Demon Shaman" looked at you blankly as you put on the crown and seated yourself, a gleam of tearfulness in its murky eyes as it muttered that the Demon Clan had waited too long for this day...]
[It quickly regained its composure, wiped the tears from the corners of its eyes, and bowed respectfully, saying, "Please, Abyssal Child, wait here. I will now summon the human ’Executor’ to the temple to meet with you."]
[The "Demon Shaman" left the temple in a hurry, and as you gazed down from your throne at the great demon lords guarding both sides, you felt completely confident.]
[With such formidable power, even when facing an ’Executor’ from the Divine Realm, there was no need to worry about any mishaps.]
[...]
[In a short while, the "Demon Shaman" led a group of people to the front of the temple...]
[Among that group seemed to be the familiar Star Spirit Envoys and Star Realm Envoys, yet the "Demon Shaman" stopped everyone, allowing only the leader to enter the temple for a meeting with you.]
[This person didn’t wear a star-studded magic robe like the usual envoys but instead donned simple, unadorned linen clothes, with a hand clutching a branch that appeared to have been casually picked up.]
[They floated in the air, their feet never touching the ground, always remaining a few inches above...]
[You knew they were the leading figure of the Polar Star Association, the ’Executor’ who had attained the Divine Level.]
[Strangely, their features were a blur, as though seen through a layer of mist.]
[The ’Executor’ approached the throne but was stopped by the seven demon lord guards, not allowed to come any closer...]
[They smiled lightly, not minding the obstacle, and just as they were about to state their purpose, they looked up to see you in your ’ram-horned demon’ appearance.]
[The Executor was visibly stunned and even forgot to speak.]
[You coughed softly twice, bringing them back to their senses, as they reluctantly hid their confusion and voiced their intentions...]
[The Polar Star Association observed a great deal of demonic sacrificial activity in the Underworld Abyss and speculated that something significant was occurring within the Demon Clan.]
[Always well-disposed towards the Demon Clan, the Polar Star Association sought guidance from the Stars Gods, learning that the Abyssal Child had been born...]
[The Stars sent them to the Abyss to negotiate an alliance once more, in preparation for another divine war that approached.]
[Do you agree to the ’Executor’s’ alliance proposal?]
Lin Xun was taken aback, another divine war so soon?
Based on the current intelligence, the Abyss was clearly outmatched by the Almighty True Knowledge and seemed prepared to hand over all authority to him, the "Abyssal Child."
As both the "Abyssal Child" and the "True God’s Messenger," only he could deal a fatal blow to the Almighty True Knowledge by striking from behind, offering a chance to turn the tables.
Otherwise, given the perverse level of the Omniscient Authority, the Abyss stood no chance at all.
If the Abyss itself was ready to be the puppeteer, hands off and steering from behind the scenes, where was this talk of a divine war coming from?
At this moment, whether within the ranks of the Stars or the Abyss, only a small fraction of Gods remained, hiding and daring not to show themselves, so few as to be negligible.
With such strength, what could they use to fight another divine war?
If the Abyss had openly stated their intention for him to strike from behind, were the Stars so delusional to want to face the Omniscient in direct combat?
After a moment of thought, Lin Xun did not press the ’yes’ option but instead prepared to extract some information first.
[Looking down from the throne at the ’Executor,’ you spoke with a scrutinizing tone...]
[Famed is the Executor’s strength of the Polar Star Association. What is your view on the impending divine war?]
[The ’Executor’ was clearly taken aback by the question.]
[You as the ’Abyssal Child’ are quite suspicious, evidently a lowliest ram-horned demon, yet you can sit on the throne of the Demon Temple, wearing the royal crown, and rule over the demon lords in the name of ’Abyssal Child.’]
[They even speculated whether the real ’Abyssal Child’ did not wish to see them and deliberately put forward a counterfeit to humiliate them.]
[Here you were, an obviously weak ’ram-horned demon,’ using an upper-being’s tone to scrutinize them.]
[Even if the true ’Abyssal Child’ was here, even if both the ’Abyssal Child’ and they had Divine Level powers, one representing the Abyss and the other the Stars, they should be equals in negotiations.]
[Your demeanor was already causing the ’Executor’ some irritation...]
