A man in the ark was forced to become a king

Is this to force Theresa to do what they want, or is it a test?

No one thought that he was serious when he said this, because no one with any intelligence would have that kind of thought, let alone the fact that this king, who was in charge of the entire Blood Demon tribe, had spent a long time and had a long history. It will bring him experience and rationality, and he must know how outrageous this statement is.

In what era did the Demon King lead the Sakaz army to conquer the world?

To put it bluntly, the way of fighting at that time was still using ancient gadgets like trebuchets, the modern Originium industry did not even have a prototype, and mobile cities were a fantasy. Everyone was fighting with cold weapons, which was useless. With some spells, that's the limit.

But now?

Countries around the world have already completed changes. They abandoned the original land city-states and built steel behemoths. Those mobile cities are steel fortresses walking on the earth. The city defense cannons installed on them can kill thousands of people with a single salvo. The troops of ten thousand people all exploded into the sky.

In the past, an elite team could even capture a city alone, but now, as long as the mobile city closes the entrances and exits, it may be troublesome for them to even climb up, and they may not even get close. It was shot into a hornet's nest by intensive crossfire.

That is a completely different concept than charging into the army.

The top warriors can move around in an army of tens of thousands of people, because ordinary soldiers cannot pose a threat to him at all. Being inside the enemy also determines that certain long-range coverage methods cannot be used, but in the face of a mobile city, even Such a strong person would not dare to run in front of that kind of thing and become a living target.

They are stronger than ordinary people, but they are still flesh and blood. Some people may be able to resist several city defense cannon attacks with their extraordinary talents or spells. So, how many city defense cannons are there in a city, and more What about lightweight secondary guns and other long-range fire strikes?

Even the old man who runs a stall in the streets knows that times have changed. The industrialization of Originium has spawned a large number of weapons of mass destruction that have never appeared before. Now we are no longer in the barbaric era of two armies fighting each other. In the pursuit of stronger, mass-produced armor, imitation Originium guns, and cannons, cold weapon competition is destined to be relegated to small-scale battlefields or personal battles.

And what about Kazdaele?

Division and long-term civil war have left the country in a state of chaotic anarchy in recent decades. Even large cities have disappeared, replaced by simple towns and free villages, filled with scavengers wandering the land. and mercenaries, it was like returning to the ancient times of barbaric tribes, ignorant and ignorant.

While it is developing at a rapid pace, weapons and equipment have been updated countless times.

Instead of making any progress, one side has degraded to its original state.

What should I use to fight with others?

Expect magicians to use magic to compete with other people's steel cannons?

Anyone with any brain would think this is a nonsense joke.

Now Sakaz has reunited and hugged each other for warmth. Under the leadership of the Demon King, the most it can do is give some deterrence to the surrounding countries so that they dare not act recklessly. Everyone maintains a tacit understanding and peaceful coexistence. If they want to fight back, it can only be said in a dream. Everything is there.

Theresia didn't think that such a retarded statement would come from the mouth of the Blood Demon Lord. From a personal point of view, she was more inclined to think that this was a test of her by the Blood Demon Lord or the various royal courts. .

They had already expressed their position by supporting Tracys in the previous civil war. How could they change their minds overnight?

Even if she, the Demon King, shows unprecedented strength, they must personally witness the results they want.

However, their trial is doomed to fail, because Theresia does not intend to change. She can make a certain degree of compromise for the sake of peace, but she will not be tied to a chariot by the royal courts and go out of sight. Their crazy ambitions.

She also believes that the Sakaz people should have the right to live freely, instead of being drawn into the quagmire of endless wars and never being able to see the future.

The doctor knew Theresia very well. He could guess what she wanted to say just by looking at her expression, and even though he had the intention to stop her, he was still a step too late.

"If you want to test my decision, then I can tell you my answer now without being secretive."

Theresia stood up from her seat and placed her hands on the table. Her cherry-pink pupils were filled with faint black and gold colors, and she stared at the Blood Demon Lord who raised his head.

"I will not declare war on any country, nor do I intend to plunder anything through war. We can rely on ourselves to rebuild the city and restore civilization. The devastated Sakaz does not need another war with no end in sight. What they need is a breather."

“Are you still unwilling to give up even though time has proven who was right over the past few decades?”

The Blood Demon Lord slowly stood up straight, seeming a little disappointed, his pale face even more gloomy.

He asked back, then ignored Theresia, looked at Tracys, and bowed slightly.

"Your Highness the Regent, have you ever thought of taking on the name of the Demon King?"

"What do you mean?"

Traces also stood up. He suddenly had a very bad feeling. The Blood Demon came as a representative of the royal courts and probably never thought about asking them to negotiate peace from the beginning, otherwise he would not have done this. .

Arrogant, rude, and condescending, as if they are the real masters of this country, and the so-called devil kings are irrelevant.

The idea of ​​​​the royal courts is probably to 'choose one of the two', that is, choose one between him and Thearesia, and retain the perfect power of the Demon King.

What puzzled Tracy the most was that if they had always had this intention, why didn't they take action earlier instead of taking action when Theresia showed her strong side?

"I'm just asking about your intention."

The Blood Demon Lord shook his head slightly, and looked at Theresia with a scrutinizing look. His expression didn't look like he was looking at a person, but like he was admiring a perfect piece of art.

"What a perfect power. The powers of all previous demon kings are completely melted together. This is the power that a real demon king should have. It's really wonderful."

"You want to shoot me?"

Theresia spoke in disbelief, feeling extremely ridiculous.

Why do they dare to attack her directly?It's as if she is just a container that can take whatever you want, and it doesn't take much effort to deal with it. Where does this confidence come from?

"Do you still remember? The royal courts not only have the qualifications to worship you. In the past, those who succeeded the throne had to be recognized by the royal courts. But now, I think His Highness Tresis is more suitable for this power than you. That’s all.”

Under the gaze of everyone with different expressions, the Blood Demon Lord explained in a leisurely manner, without any panic, as if he was completely sure.

"Please rest assured that the deprivation and gift of power will not affect your life, and the royal courts have no intention to be your enemy. I promise that after leaving this power, you can lead your men to stay in Kazdaele, or go Go anywhere you want.”

Trade strength for freedom?

Give the Demon King's position and power to Traces, and then she can completely escape Kazdaele?

Theresia was confused for a moment, then became determined again.

How is that possible?She never thought of giving up Sarkaz or Kazdel!

"You think, you commit."

But before she could speak, the doctor took the initiative to take over the topic and got to the point as soon as he opened his mouth.

"What a clumsy way of speaking. You are using the name of the Royal Courts to complete your idea. Can I think so? In fact, you cannot represent the will of the Royal Courts at all. You can only represent a blood demon at most?"

"absurd."

Traces also retorted and was very dissatisfied with the Blood Demon Lord's words.

All he wants is for the Demon King's power to remain in Kazdaele and be passed down, but that doesn't mean he wants to put that thing on himself.

Inheriting the power of the Demon King also requires qualifications, otherwise as the eldest son, he should be the one to inherit the position of the Demon King.

In this regard, Theresia is much stronger than him. She has even managed to suppress the backlash of the Demon King's power and still maintains her peak condition. So why would he deprive his sister of the Demon King's power and destroy a person? The most powerful person in the world?

There are already signs of the end of the civil war, and the remaining matters can be solved completely through negotiation and exchange of interests, so there is no point in doing so.

"Whatever you say, I came all the way here just to meet my Demon King. It's time for this power to change its owner."

The Blood Demon King paid no attention to the accusations made by the Doctor and Traces. He showed extreme conceitedness and arrogance. He even took steps to bypass the conference table and get close to Theresia. There was a faint feeling around his body. Blood mist.

Theresa naturally couldn't bear such a provocation. The dark crystal formed instantly, and the invisible power spread, swarming towards the approaching Blood Demon Lord.

However, the Blood Demon Lord was not affected in any way. A dull gray floating light lit up from his cloak, completely excluding the Demon King's power.

He gently raised his arm, and at some point he caught a piece of dark yellow leather paper between his fingers, with obscure words that were difficult to decipher outlined in bright red liquid.

"Covenant of the Royal Court (Old Sarkazi)."

The blood demon spit out obscure and weird syllables and walked slowly and confidently.

"There was once a great majesty who concluded this contract with the royal courts to disperse his power so that the contractor could be protected in the war. As long as he holds the covenant, the king's power will not harm his subjects."

"Even after countless years, this original covenant is still preserved in the blood demon's secret vault. It can completely restrain the power of the demon king. Without these, you are just a slightly stronger magician."

As he said this, he walked up to Theresia under pressure, stopped, raised his arm and snapped his fingers. In an instant, both Tracy and Kelsey felt that their bodies suddenly became stiff. , even thinking seems to be starting to slow down.

"Everyone else, do you like this little gift from the Blood Demon?"

"Poison? How dare you!?"

"Why don't I dare?"

"Tsk."

It can be said that the scene in the conference room took a turn for the worse, reaching the worst point in the blink of an eye. The doctor was not affected by the so-called blood demon poison. This Originium skill was ineffective on her, but she couldn't do anything on her own. What.

The blood demon's arrogant behavior was indeed unexpected, and the appearance of the Royal Court Covenant was also unexpected, but it was not without trace.

The doctor knew very well that the reason why the Blood Demon Lord used such extreme methods was simply because he had a clear idea of ​​Tracy's character and accurately grasped his thoughts.

As long as that man puts the facts in front of him, he will definitely force himself to accept it for the sake of Sakaz's interests and future. No matter how much dissatisfaction and anger he has, he will forcefully suppress it.

If Theresia who loses her power really will not die, then the follow-up will be easier to solve. Tracys who has obtained the power of the Demon King will "put the overall situation first", and the Tower of Babel, which has not lost its leader, will not do this. Instead of making a desperate move, they must consider the weakened Theresia and Tracys who are once again on the opposite side to evacuate Kazdaele as soon as possible.

A very simple and crude plan, it is completely a conspiracy, forcing everything to develop according to their arrangements.

As for the differences or true thoughts within the royal courts, Dr. Insufficient Information had no way of knowing, but she didn't really want to know. In her opinion, today's outcome was already determined.

However, she had already taken an extremely safe insurance policy on this conversation.

"My king, it's time for you to take your Zen position."

The Blood Demon bowed gracefully and bowed, his arms forward. Opposite him, Theresia stared at him with an indifferent expression, as if she was looking at a funny clown.

Bang!

The special glass window in the conference room suddenly shattered, and the Blood Demon Lord felt his eyes go dark. Then he was pinned to the ground, shaking the ground, and pressed a palm on his face. The astonishing force locked him tightly, making him completely unable to resist head-on.

Poof~ With a soft sound, the Blood Demon Lord turned into a ball of blood mist and dispersed, then quickly gathered into a human form not far away, with a gloomy and terrifying face.

"How about it? Is the timing of my appearance just right?"

Lin Lu didn't care. She straightened up and looked at Theresia with a smile. She crossed her hands together and her joints made a cracking sound.

"This guy is crazy. I don't know who gave him the confidence. How about it, do you want me to beat him to death for you?"

"unnecessary."

Theresia had a sullen face and shook her head in refusal, her cherry-pink eyes suddenly turning dazzling gold.

The clay figurine was still quite rustic, and being treated so rudely by her own courtiers made even a good-tempered person like her really start to get angry.

"My king, you..."

Before the Blood Demon Lord finished speaking, he felt a sharp pain in his abdomen, and his whole body flew backwards and hit the wall. Thearesia appeared at his original position as if teleporting, holding a dark yellow ball in his hand. With a little force on the leather paper, golden light overflowed from the palm of the hand, completely submerging and shattering the leather paper.

"Covenant of the Royal Court (Old Sarkazi)."

Pieces of vellum flew up and fell from the air. Theresia turned her head sideways, and pure golden light swam in her hair, coating her long pink hair with a faint golden glow, making her whole person dazzling.

"The final right of interpretation belongs to the Demon King. What I give you is yours."

Chapter 174 Compromise and Ending

The King's Court Covenant was originally intended to be a treaty completed under the witness of the King's Court and the Demon King, with binding force covering all Sakaz.

This thing has appeared many times in history. In fact, there are still many royal court covenants that are still in effect. They connect all Sakaz people together outside of blood and have many effects.

However, the ancient antique in the hands of the Blood Demon Lord is not the same as the current royal court covenant - the so-called royal court covenant is supposed to be certain terms agreed by both parties, and it is mandatory. of.

This covenant itself contains the power of the previous demon kings, and it will be inspired by the power of the demon kings from the same source to offset it. It can be regarded as a 'secret treasure'.

In fact, this thing is not very strong, and the power of the Demon King contained in it is pitiful. However, under the influence of the same origin, it does not have to resist at all, and can directly allow the power of the Demon King to identify the individuals under its protection as 'Friends', and disrupt them in a way that goes to the core.

If the Blood Demon Lord met Thearesia from before, Theresia might not be able to do anything in a short period of time. It’s not like she couldn’t crack it. After all, she was an old antique, so she couldn’t really be permanently immune to the Demon King. However, her cracking requires time, and the Blood Demon Lord will not give her this time. Even just a few minutes are enough for a strong person of this level to do many things.

Unfortunately, his arrival was unlucky and he encountered a brand new version of Thearesia 2.0.

Thearesia, who was reborn from destruction with the help of the rituals of the Originist mage and the blessing of the golden tree, can now not only control the power of the Demon King, but also has an unusually rich power of gold flowing in her body.

Golden Tree Warning.jpg.

It is true that the royal court covenant can restrain the devil and neutralize his power, but what does your Sakaz covenant have to do with my golden tree?

The Demon King's power didn't take effect?

It's ok!

I still have the power of gold!

The golden tree not only has incredible vitality, it can also turn into prayers and thunder that destroy all things. The golden sword blades and ax hammers also have the power to completely crush the enemy.

If this were not the case, how did the Eternal Queen Marika fight back the evil god worshiped by the Fire Giant in the Battle of Snow Mountain? Just rely on words?

Even Menggert, who was later regarded as a bad omen, was able to perform the superb Golden Prayer, and its destructive power was quite astonishing.

Of course Theresia, who has just come into contact with the Golden Tree, cannot do that, but the strong always have some experience. She does not understand the power of gold, but she can use it forcefully, and she can still convert enough with its quality. Destructive power, it is easy to break a covenant that contains the power of the Demon King.

If she wanted to, she might even be able to compete with the Blood Demon King just by relying on this golden power.

She did indeed do this, regardless of whether she was careless or arrogant. In short, without using the power of the Demon King, the Blood Demon King was still no match. He just met him and was instantly knocked away. The impact was so strong that The entire wall was shaken, showing how terrifying the power exerted on him was.

In fact, if people who are close and familiar with her evaluate her, Theresia has many contradictions.

She loves peace and has a gentle personality, but at the same time she is the most capable fighter in Kazdaele.
