Chapter 1982 The difficult situation of the human race
Due to the raging demons, most cities and towns have been severely damaged, and ruins and debris can be seen everywhere.
The trembling survivors hid in hidden corners, worrying about the demons' pursuit and praying for the disaster to end as soon as possible.
However, hope never came. Instead, the disaster became more severe, and many familiar people could no longer be contacted.
In the chaotic environment, human life is like a piece of grass, and the shadow of death hangs over the hearts of all survivors.
However, during this disaster, there were still cities that survived. Although they were also attacked by demons, they were far less serious than other cities.
The city where the forged ancient demon nest is located is one of the lucky cities.
Just because of the emergence of the ancient demon nest, the demon hunter headquarters mobilized a large number of manpower to maintain law and order.
When the disaster broke out, the city had a defense force far superior to other cities and quickly controlled the chaotic situation.
There is another reason, which is that due to the existence of the ancient demon nest, a large number of demons have gathered here.
Because there are many treasures in the Demon Nest, it has attracted the attention of a large number of demons. While they are fighting for it, they are also wary of each other.
Under such circumstances, if someone dares to lead an army of demon servants, it will inevitably cause misunderstandings among other demons.
If they are misunderstood as trying to rob the Demon Nest, they will definitely be attacked by a group of people, which is undoubtedly asking for trouble.
Fearing each other, a strange balance was formed, turning this place into a place of truce.
Even though the demons were raging outside and there were reports that a certain city had been destroyed from time to time, this city had never been attacked on a large scale.
Even if ordinary people were affected by the demonic energy and turned into ferocious demon servants, they were killed by the demon hunters immediately.
It can be said that what Tang Zhen did inadvertently saved the lives of nearly a million people and allowed them to avoid the massacre.
But even so, the situation of survivors is still extremely difficult.
People in the city are in panic, and few pedestrians are seen walking on the streets. Because the demons have destroyed the freight logistics, the entire city's supplies have become extremely tight.
Being able to fill one's stomach has become a luxury, and the bark of the weeds and trees on the roadside has long been eaten up.
Compared with those who died, the residents were actually very lucky, but the difficult life made them feel that life was worse than death.
The Demon Hunters Guild was called upon to deal with the crisis and actively tried to find a solution to the predicament, and indeed mobilized some emergency supplies.
However, compared to the consumption required by the entire city, it is still a drop in the bucket and will not have much effect at all.
As time goes by, some city residents have to find ways to leave the city in order to survive and try to find food to satisfy their hunger.
Compared to a relatively urban area, there is no doubt that there is hell outside the city, and it is very likely that you will never return.
It’s just that the survivors have no choice. If they continue to stay in the city, they will still die.
The extremely harsh living environment caused people to endure both physical and mental torture. Many citizens could not bear it and eventually chose to commit suicide.
There are also some people who degenerate into demon servants. Because of the resentment and hatred in their hearts, they become extremely fierce and wantonly devour those poor people like them.
As long as a demon appears in the city, the demon hunters will be dispatched quickly to try to resolve the crisis in the shortest possible time to prevent the situation from getting out of control.
Whenever something similar happens, the residents of the city will watch indifferently, looking at the mutilated corpses with very numb expressions.
Perhaps in their view, death seems to be able to get rid of all troubles, so that they no longer have to endure painful torture.
They may never know that this increasingly pessimistic thinking is actually one of the demons' methods of war.
The demons who can control the entire world can also use some mysterious means to continuously affect the emotions of ordinary people and make them negative and depressed.
…
In the office of the Demon Hunter headquarters, the middle-aged monk looked at the information before him with a solemn expression.
Because Tang Zhenqing destroyed a large number of demon nests, the Demon Hunter headquarters obtained a large amount of supplies, which greatly alleviated the dilemma of insufficient supplies.
But even so, the Demon Hunter Guild was still suppressed when facing the powerful demons.
In a short period of time, extremely heavy losses were incurred, and a large number of soldiers and demon hunters were killed.
This is inevitable. Regardless of the number of monks or their own background, demon hunters can never be the opponents of the demons.
"Fortunately, Tang Zhen exists, otherwise the Demon Hunter headquarters would cease to exist at this moment!"
The middle-aged monk sighed. The information he just received mentioned that the demons had discovered the manufacturing base of the Demon Hunter headquarters and launched a ferocious attack on it.
Those demons got the information and the materials obtained by Tang Zhenqing after destroying the demon nest were all sent here. It can be said that the manufacturing base at this time is a huge treasure.
How could a demon with a greedy nature miss such an opportunity?
After confirming the location of the manufacturing base, a group of demon nest masters swarmed over. They were afraid that they would be too slow and other demons would take away the benefits.
There were nearly 200,000 demon servants participating in the attack. They came like a tide, and the army guarding the outside was defeated in the blink of an eye.
The demon hunters on the second line of defense tried their best to stop them, but they didn't last long and were quickly swallowed up by the densely packed demon clan.
The demon army marched straight in, headed straight for the location of the manufacturing base, and surrounded it.
Just when everyone concluded that the manufacturing base would fall, the rune array that Tang Zhen had originally deployed showed extraordinary power.
The huge rune array suddenly activated, covering the entire manufacturing base, like a terrifying meat grinder, swallowing and strangling all the approaching demons.
This rune array is very special. It has the ability to devour flesh and blood to strengthen itself. The more demons it kills, the more powerful it becomes.
The attacking demons paid a heavy price, but were still unable to conquer the rune circle. This made the masters of the demon nest frightened and angry, and finally went to attack in person.
However, the power of the rune array was far beyond imagination, and even these demons were helpless. After more than a dozen demon nest masters died, the demon army finally had no choice but to evacuate.
The rune array arranged by Tang Zhen not only preserved the manufacturing base of the Demon Hunter headquarters, but also preserved the lifeline of the human race.
After frowning and thinking for a moment, the middle-aged monk picked up another piece of information with a trace of doubt on his face.
According to the latest intelligence, a war broke out in the Black Desert. The two sides are still unclear. It is suspected that it may be related to Tang Zhen.
The middle-aged monk no longer had any doubts about Tang Zhen's strength, but the sudden appearance of strange buildings in the black desert made him worried.
According to eyewitness descriptions, those buildings were incredibly large and exuded a frightening atmosphere.
According to the information obtained by the Demon Hunter Guild, the demons do not have similar mysterious buildings, but it is precisely this that makes people most worried.
A group of mysterious monks with unknown origins will definitely make the current situation more complicated. If the other party is related to demons, then the situation of the human race will become even more difficult.
In order to seize the initiative advantage as much as possible, the Demon Hunter headquarters has sent personnel to try to figure out the specific origins of these super buildings.
If it is an enemy, you must take precautions early. If it is an enemy of the demon clan, then try your best to win and cooperate.
The situation is becoming more and more critical, and the Demon Hunter Headquarters will never miss any opportunity to change the unfavorable situation.
Just as the middle-aged monk frowned and thought, his door was suddenly pushed open, and then a demon hunter rushed in.
The other party's face was full of panic and panic, and he shouted to the middle-aged monk: "Oh no, a huge tower has flown from the sky, and it is right above our heads!"
"What?!"
When the middle-aged monk heard this, he was immediately shocked and rushed out the door without hesitation.
Then he saw in the sky above his head, a super giant tower that almost enveloped the city was hanging high above his head, exuding a frightening aura.
