The Witcher: Elemental Lords
#485 - Demons
As they walked along, carefully observing, the strength of these flying creatures was no higher than level three, and no lower than level one of the extraordinary. It seemed a bit strange, completely different from the main world. The main world also had a level, which was the wild beast, but the creatures here were much more powerful, but none were overly powerful.
The owner of the ship was Corso, the head of the Ying Kingdom's Imperial Mage Corps. He looked ahead, his brow furrowed.
He had checked the rules of this world, and there were no major problems. Regarding the rules of the soul, according to what they felt, there were also no problems, but where exactly was the problem?
He turned his head and said, "Have you found any differences?"
Next to him, several other people looked up at this time, and then shook their heads.
"It's very strange. It seems like the high-level individuals suddenly disappeared. The cities we passed through indicate one thing: those with special intelligence seem to have all died instantly, without any trace. And the people in other places have also disappeared, as if they were avoiding disaster on a large scale."
"Yes, I also feel like some kind of powerful natural disaster has occurred here, forcing them to leave. Those who couldn't leave, like those cities we encountered before, died instantly."
"Toxins? Germs?"
"Neither of these could cause this kind of effect. There's no toxin that can cause people to die silently and instantly, they would at least struggle a bit, right?"
The group of people immediately began to argue.
They were also experts gathered from various directions. For a time, each of them frowned, not knowing what exactly had happened here.
Just at this moment, Corso looked into the distance. A beam of white light flew from afar, heading straight for the outside of the giant ship. This light had no offensive power, it seemed to be just a stream of information.
He was immediately stunned. He released his mental power, but didn't feel any magic on it, only pure mental power, without any offensive nature, so he released the giant ship's defensive shield and captured the white light.
This was indeed a piece of information, a very important piece of information, information they had not yet grasped.
After reading the information, Corso was shocked.
So there really are such things in this world. Do the historical records really exist?
He thought for a moment, placed the white light in front of him, and solemnly said to those people, "Take a look at this."
Those people were arguing incessantly and hadn't noticed the white light at all. When they heard Corso's words, they all turned around and scanned it with their mental power.
In the next moment, everyone's faces showed shock, and no one spoke.
"A demon, does this thing really exist? Weren't they driven out in ancient times?" After a long time, someone asked.
Corso nodded. "That was in our world. This is just a small world, without gods to guard it, demons can easily infiltrate. The person who gave us the information clearly knows more than we do. Since there are demons, we can't continue forward. Let's wait."
"If it really is a demon, we are all in danger. In ancient times, demons ruled our Lingguang world for a full hundred thousand years."
"Quickly confirm it. If it really is, then pass the message to everyone, or quickly withdraw from this world. If someone brings a demon to our world, that would be terrible!" someone said anxiously.
Corso's expression was heavy. "I'm also suspecting this problem now. How did they know this news? But for now, this is the only news. Demons must not be brought back to our world. If it's impossible, we'll give up exploring the Shangfeng world."
The group of people began to struggle again.
…
At the top of a giant peak, black gas spread, and one of the black gas was like a prison, like a tide. The terrifying aura was like a materialized substance, enveloping most of the mountain range.
In the void, two more eyes appeared, and then many eyes appeared around, looking in all directions.
"Someone is coming."
The demon's will was a little excited, but in the next moment, he was a little surprised, because the few little guys he sent out didn't eat the opponent, but were instead killed by the opponent and ran away.
Across hundreds of kilometers, the demon could feel the opponent's pure and weak mental power, definitely not exceeding level six, only level five mental power.
In fact, he had encountered more than one person these days, but those people were weaker. Compared to his huge body, there was not even a ripple after eating them.
If he didn't need to suppress the Shangfeng Elder in the mountain, he would have left here long ago and gone on a killing spree.
He thought for a moment. A part of his huge and terrifying body, the endless black smoke, suddenly dissipated, and in the distance, those black smoke suddenly emerged, and then went in all directions.
It needs more mental power, it needs to break through, it needs to break the formation below, it needs to eat all the people inside, so that it can advance to level nine, become the demon of demons, the supreme demon, and finally achieve the demon god.
In the demon's world, all you need to do is eat, and the food is the mental power of various creatures, no matter what kind of creature, it's all okay, but there are also races and levels. Among them, only human mental power is the most delicious and nutritious. Those complex thoughts, sad emotions, cunning minds, and cruel ideas can all make the demon feel mental pleasure.
Humans are the most suitable food.
The demon has already found its own path. Greed, jealousy, arrogance, desire, etc., the other evils of human nature. He found a path that was most suitable for him, which was desire.
The desires of people are endless, and can even encompass any other sins. Mating is the desire of the flesh, greed is the desire of the spirit, survival is the desire of any living being, and strength is also the instinctive desire of any creature. As long as a living being still exists, then desire is an existence that cannot be restrained. As long as he masters the rules of desire, he is an invincible demon.
Thinking of this, in the black cloud, an orange-yellow flame slowly rose. That was the fire of desire. What burned in the flame was not magical elements, but the desires in the hearts of all living beings.
There were humans, there were magical beasts, and there were demons. The flame seemed to carry the stories of desires, burning in the heavens and the earth, and also seemed to burn in people's hearts.
…
In the mountain, an old man with a face full of wrinkles sat cross-legged on the roof of the main hall, looking at the top of his head, the wrinkles on his face becoming more numerous.
"Alas, this demon has already raised the fire of desire, and I'm afraid its strength is approaching level nine. I don't know how many more years we can last."
He was the Shangfeng Elder. Since discovering the existence of the demon, he had ordered everyone to immigrate to the mountain, and to collect all the edible things, anything. So far, it has lasted for thirty years.
But looking at the demonic intent rising in the sky, he knew that it would soon be unsustainable.
The people in the mountain were panicking, and all the negative emotions generated were absorbed by the demon in the sky, making it even stronger.
If there was an emotion that could represent what he was thinking in his heart, it would be despair.
But he quickly suppressed this thought, suppressing the emotion. He cannot generate any emotions, otherwise, he would also be providing nourishment to the demon.
Just then, his gaze looked into the distance, passing through the mountain peaks, and seeing the plains outside.
"Huh, the world is open, someone has come in, what a terrible thing."
