Hell has invaded, but my Hextech is invincible!

Chapter 18 A Tragic Song of History

Their warm lips touched, instantly enveloped in each other's breath.

Her gentle yet domineering manner caused Ada to stiffen abruptly.

This sudden kiss was completely unexpected.

Ada's pupils contracted sharply, and she was stunned for a moment before snapping back to her senses. Her almond-shaped eyes instantly filled with anger, and she raised her hand to slap Hex hard.

Hex was prepared; he caught her wrist firmly and lightly tickled her palm with his fingertips: "Why did you hit me?"

"You're standing so close, don't you want me to kiss you?"

Ada's expression changed abruptly. Her languid and alluring composure crumbled instantly, replaced by disbelief and astonishment. Her eyebrows and eyes twisted slightly at the sudden turn of events, filled with shame and anger, completely losing her usual calm.

In the past, when faced with her provocative approach, ordinary men would either panic and retreat, avoid eye contact, or have their hearts race and ramble on.

No one has ever dared to kiss her first under her oppressive power.

Anyone who dared to take advantage of her has been thrown into the North Sea!

She wiped her lips, and her face quickly returned to its usual beautiful expression.

"It was just a kiss." She instinctively wanted to get back at him.

"Mr. Horus, your kissing skills aren't very good."

"Really? Want to try again?" Hex said nonchalantly, his tone slightly flippant. "My tongue is very flexible."

"I guarantee you'll have a blast."

"By the way, my fingers are even more flexible than my tongue."

Ida was, after all, an old-fashioned woman from the early 20th century, and her thoughts and words were rather conservative.

When it comes to telling dirty jokes, he was no match for Hextech, who had been online for twenty years, and was speechless for a moment.

Benev and the others stared at Hex as if he were a monster.

Who doesn't know how dangerous Ida is?

Her usual coquettish demeanor was merely a tactic to lower people's guard and to toy with her opponents.

In all these years, no one has ever dared to flirt with Ada so brazenly.

Now there are actually people who can openly take advantage of Ada!

Warriors!

"Hex Horus, I hope your will will be as hard as your mouth later," Ada said coldly.

Hex blinked and said, "Miss Ada, aren't you going to invite me?"

"Why resort to violence when you can't win an argument?"

"Are you going to sue me for sexual harassment?"

He leaned back in his chair, one leg crossed over his shoulder, looking completely nonchalant.

Ada had never seen such a witty man in her life. Her lips twitched slightly, and she gritted her teeth before finally saying, "You're really funny."

"Of course I would like to invite you to join the united front."

"With your abilities, you're more than capable of leading important projects."

"But I need to find out where you come from!"

"Aren't the United Front full of people of dubious origin and with their own agendas?" Hex shrugged.

"Why is it that when it comes to me, I have to have a clean background?"

"Like you, Miss Ada, is your background really that clean?"

Ada chuckled softly, "It seems you know a lot about the United Front."

"So, which faction do you represent? MI6? The Protestant Union?"

"Or is it the royal family, or some cult?"

She placed the pocket pistol on the table and pointed it at Hex.

"I hope you will think carefully about how to answer this question."

"This concerns your life, and the lives of those two young ladies."

Grace held Emily tightly, her body trembling uncontrollably.

Emily shook her head slightly at Hex, clearly having exhausted her mental energy to the limit and unable to use her abilities.

Hex cursed inwardly, thinking, "As expected, this little brat is unreliable. She can only go AFK at crucial moments. What a useless teammate."

"I'm from Neo-Antiques," Hextech said calmly.

Upon hearing this name, nearly forty Allied Front agents in the base, including Ada, turned sharply to look at him.

"How is that possible? Neo-Antioch was destroyed sixteen years ago!" Benev roared in disbelief. "You're lying!"

Neo-Antich is a frontline fortress for humanity against demons, much like Krieg in the Warhammer 40 universe.

To talk about Neo Antochika, we must talk about the history of this world.

This world follows the Western worldview, with a clearly defined God and Heaven.

But in the first millennium, world history didn't change much, or perhaps the writers were just too lazy to write the story forward.

All these changes stemmed from the First Crusade.

In 1095 AD, the Clement Council was convened.

The Seljuk Turks conquered large swathes of Byzantine territory, prompting Byzantine Emperor Alexius I to seek military assistance from the West.

Meanwhile, Europe was plagued by years of famine and plague, and feudal lords were constantly fighting each other, leading to social unrest. The Church attempted to divert attention from internal conflicts and strengthen its authority through foreign wars.

Jerusalem has long been under Muslim control, and the Eastern and Western churches hope to rebuild their ties by jointly confronting infidels.

Pope Urban II summoned the major nobles and bishops of the Christian world to launch the Crusades, which marked the beginning of evil.

The First Crusade captured Jerusalem, but the Knights Templar committed the ultimate heresy by staging Slaanesh and Khorne's performance art in Jerusalem.

This act was rejected by God, loathed by angels, and even opened the gates of hell in Jerusalem.

The gates of hell opened for the first time on earth, and countless demons poured out of hell, and Jerusalem was destroyed in the catastrophe.

That was the first recorded invasion of hell in history.

The gates of hell closed on their own after seven days.

But the southern Levant, where Jerusalem is located, which is also the Promised Land of Canaan, was completely destroyed.

With the gates of hell closed, demons are also suppressed by the barriers of the real world and cannot stay for long.

Even after suffering heavy losses, humans can still organize a counterattack and reclaim some lost territory.

That catastrophe had a tremendous impact on Europe, and subsequently, under the auspices of the Pope at the time, in order to prepare for the possible second and third invasions of hell, people established more than a dozen Crusader kingdoms in the Levant region.

At the same time, the invasion of Hell also had a great impact on Muslims. The "Unbreakable Wall" Great Sultan Muhammad established the Allied State and unified the various sects of Islam.

The great iron wall of Iskandar has reappeared and been reinforced to fight against Hell.

But ten years later, just when humanity thought that the disaster would not happen again and the Levant region was thriving, the gates of hell opened a second time.

This disaster is more terrifying and devastating than the last one.

Even if humanity had made some preparations, more than a dozen Crusader kingdoms were almost completely wiped out within a few days, and the demonic forces crossed the sea directly, with a large number of demons invading European countries such as Byzantium, England, France, and Kievan Rus'.

Europe was in turmoil, its population plummeted, and it faced the prospect of national extinction.

But at this moment, twelve paladins stepped forward. They were exceptionally wise and incredibly strong, each one like an ancient god, capable of resisting the demon lords who had invaded the human world.

They are said to have consumed the blood and flesh of Jesus and call themselves the Primarchs of the Twelve Holy Knights.

At the same time, the Primarchs developed the technology to modify Paladins.

The first generation of paladins was born. These paladins possessed extraordinary power, enough to contend with demons. It was they who stopped the demons' slaughter and preserved the foundation of Europe.

At the same time, a very small number of humans claimed to have been blessed by God and gained great power overnight, enough to confront the power of the devil head-on.

They are called living saints, and their superpowers are called "gifts".

Pope Galidus II claimed to have received divine revelation that God, unable to bear the suffering of humanity, developed the divine arts of the Holy Register, based on the special abilities of living saints, thus granting clergy a simplified version of the "gift" called the Holy Register.

Humanity has finally gained the ability to resist the invasion of hell.

The people of that time were known as the Golden Generation.

In the following decade or so, humanity sacrificed ten paladins, seven or eight living saints, and millions of soldiers and tens of millions of civilians, almost exhausting the power of the Golden Generation, before finally pushing the demons back to the Levant region.

This war, which lasted for a century, is known as the "War of Revelation".

Of course, later research suggests that it was likely that internal strife occurred in Hell, causing a large number of demons to return, which allowed humanity to launch a counterattack.

Against this backdrop, Antioch was fortified and became a center of resistance against the forces of Hell.

For the next hundred years, no similar apocalyptic-level war broke out again.

But hell still invades the human world from time to time, and demons have found more effective ways to expand.

Demons can tempt mortals, causing them to fall into the cult of hell, establish cults, and perform evil rituals to open a passage to the real world.

From then on, the forces of Hell became increasingly difficult to contain.

In 1346, the gates of hell opened in the Italian port city.

This marks the first time the gates of hell have been opened inside Europe.

Beelzebub, one of the seventy-two demons, personally released the Black Grail.

That is, the "Black Death".

Tens of millions of people were infected, making it the worst pandemic in human history.

Those infected living people will soon become zombies and attack humans.

The war of corpses begins.

Joan of Arc, the living saint, sacrificed her life to banish the Black Grail from Europe.
