Oops, I became the witch's substitute

The third category is the genuine strong ones. With the above two types of resources, plus talent, they can steadily become stronger through hard training, and develop the power of Tao to the extreme, with both physical strength and magic power flourishing. Just hearing about going against such a strong person will make your scalp tingle.

"Most of the demons you met are of the first or second type. They were born before humans, but they didn't learn to be good later." The female warrior said frankly, "Erniel, although you work hard in magic, your physical fitness is very poor. I mean, if you really become unsatisfied one day, how can you win over the person you like with this little strength?"

Enier's focus was subconsciously misplaced: "A forced melon is not sweet."

The female warrior was unaware: "Listen to me, if forcing it once is not sweet, then do it twice, three times, four times, five times, or five or six times a day. If you do it every three or five times, desire can turn into true love."

Bang! Soul headbutt! Hearing these vicious words, the saint hurriedly pushed the female warrior away.

"Shut up. Now we need to make Enil stronger and get rid of her family's blood curse. Listen to me. I have a special method that can increase your power in a short period of time, but you will have to pay a price afterwards. The stronger the power you get, the greater the price you will have to pay later. However, this price can be manipulated. I will use you and the person you love as an excuse to make it happen." After the saint finished speaking, she added, "As a second choice, there is another way. You can become a witch."

"Ah↗?" Enil screamed.

If Filin was nearby, he would definitely look back in surprise, looking for the Darkin Sword Demon nearby.

"Your human identity has bound you. While you are still young, change your race." The Saint also thought about it seriously. "Use a special ritual to transform into a witch. The younger you are, the higher the success rate. But there is a price to pay. Your body will not grow from now on."

Enil thought of Fili: "Well, um... the witch is a bit..."

The Saint continued, "Or you can find a True Ancestor and ask her to transform you into a Blood Demon. I think the latter has a greater chance of getting rid of the blood curse."

"Blood demons, liches, chimeras... you kids are really naive. There are a few smart ones who can realize that this blood curse affects the soul, breaking seals, distorting cause and effect, and faking death. Of all the kids, only these few can stand in front of me. I am a little disappointed."

Count Aviles was writing in his diary. He suddenly felt like writing something memorable. Regardless of success or failure, he might not be able to read it in the future.

He recorded the death of each of his descendants until he came to Film, then suddenly stopped writing.

"Why are there so many branches? The body of just one person is enough to describe it as corpses everywhere."

Chapter 168: Defeat the Crooked Dragon

"Hey, Fili, as an outsider, your visits to the Witch Forest this month have already caught up with the total number of visits by all outsiders in the past year. Is there anything that Fili can't just communicate with magic?"

"Ahhh... Fili must have her own reasons for doing this."

In the Witch Forest, Filin came to report again and sent the plan against Pandora as usual.

During this period, Feilin has been focusing on managing the image of Pandora of Hope. The first stage is to let more people know that Pandora's good intentions are in action. With the publication of high-quality story collections, there has been some progress in publicity. The next step is to strengthen the power of these puppets.

Disaster Pandora is a very terrifying existence. Now all the Hope Pandors tied together are not enough to defeat her, so naturally they have to be careful. The puppets can only bully some less powerful abyss fragments on a daily basis.

But just this alone was enough to make Pandora feel sick. Karan was like a box and Pandora was like a rotten egg. She let the stench in the box spread outside, but she didn't know what method was used outside to remove the stench.

Feilin was carefree and ran around the Witch Forest because she was used to it when she was Fili. Recently, she was often caught by the Sword Witch Surad, and she always felt a little embarrassed: "By the way, why do I feel like you are targeting me?"

Surad always kept floating half a meter above the ground, carrying a heavy sword taller than himself, looking quite majestic: "I said that the Witch Forest is a relatively private place for us. Even if it is a visiting royal family, we will notify them in advance and take the main road. But you are different. I have caught you in the same place recently. Do you have any intentions towards one of our witches? Are you doing this to Fili?"

In fact, Feilin hated it when people made fun of him and Feili, but Surad didn't seem to have any ill intentions, so he didn't get angry. "This time, I'll go to Her Excellency Hecate. You know the plan against Pandora. This is a long-term operation across space and time. We should try any advantageous method we can think of."

Surad nodded and flew in front to lead the way for Filin: "You are not simple either. I think Filin just gave you some suggestions, but you implemented them. Not only did you learn from them, but you also did it to the extreme. Even though I know that Pandora's story collection is a fictional story, I was still moved by you, a bastard. You better pay attention and don't seduce our compatriots."

Filin was full of questions: "No, what did I do?"

Surad pretended to be serious, but he kept peeking at the film from time to time: "I really don't know how you wrote a story like Hachiko. The familiars are so loyal and lovely, how could you let them suffer such a pitiful end?"

Feilin felt some of the joy of being a plagiarist. It turned out to be quite satisfying to introduce the good works of the previous life to people from another world. Although he was just a porter, he was regarded as the original author, and he even felt a bit of pleasure of stealing.

Should we adapt "Dying to Survive" and make Pandora's image more vivid?

No, enough is enough. There are two desperate battles waiting for him this year.

Feilin got a headache when he thought of Pandora and Count Xue. They would both appear in Kalan. What should he do then?

……

…………

Meanwhile Karan.

After several days, Pandora finally discovered that the number of disaster fragments she had spread outside was decreasing.

To make matters worse, she has recently been entangled by something disgusting, which is even more dangerous.

At first, Pandora discovered that the growth rates of some of the disaster beasts she controlled were not normal. Through observation, she found that it was not because these disaster beasts absorbed a lot of power, but that their own time was accelerated, causing their growth beyond expectations.

This would have been a good thing, but behind the good thing, Pandora found herself being used as a gun, with someone interfering with her power of disaster and distorting time at will. This power even disturbed her herself.

When she controlled the crooked dragon to create massacre that day, it caused a fluctuation in this power, and time with her as the center was reversed.

Pandora, who is also a deity, did research after being affected by this. After researching, she found that some non-existent memories had inexplicably appeared in her mind. These memories seemed to be a fantasy that happened in another world. She had a life-and-death battle with an unknown time-path deity. Neither side used their trump cards, and the other party committed suicide after fighting for a while.

"Who is this? Who is this again?" Pandora was depressed. The last witch who destroyed her moon landing plan had not been found yet, and now she encountered a time traveler with difficult talents, all of whom had completely mysterious abilities.

Then she felt relieved. Isn't it just the ability to manipulate time? Her Path of Disaster is to end everything, even the life on the planet can come to an end. For a mere god of the Path of Time, let his time end in Kalan.

"The demon king in the story is the target of many heroes, but I like the way they hate me but can't kill me." Pandora enjoys the process of torturing her life.

Just like during the massacre, most of the dead were eaten alive by monsters after exhausting their physical strength in the gray fog.

Pandora enjoys tempting her children to kill each other, deceiving the good and crushing the plans of the conspirators. However, she would not be happy if she became someone else's pawn.

"It's time for the stars to fall."

Pandora pondered secretly.

Because there are too many opponents and enemies, Pandora doesn't know who to deal with for a while, but people outside will not wait for her.

As for Fili, she recently learned about the Crooked Dragon's massacre in the city. After confirming the Dragon's location, the army began to act.

The main force of Kalan's front-line army is temporarily unable to move. Every day, humans and demons summon creatures to fight crickets against each other. After the crickets are finished fighting, they go up on their own. The demons lose more than they win, and humans have a slight advantage.

Then came the disgusting thing. The natural disasters and man-made disasters caused by Pandora were endless. It was not difficult for humans to defeat the demons, but it was several times more difficult to purify and recover the land. Now the gray fog was spreading and the fuel consumption was huge.

The front-line advance was difficult and there were problems with supply in the rear. The appearance of disasters like the Crooked Dragon greatly delayed the front-line offensive.

This is when Serena and other mobile forces come into play. Special mercenary groups, adventurers and heroes have the time and energy to deal with sudden dangers.

"From the last intelligence we saw of the crooked dragon, it has the ability to spread gray fog and has special domains. Our main forces are the Great Witch, Frost Moon Dragon and two elves. The troops use magic weapons for long-range bombardment and cannot get close. Soldiers prepare braziers and torches to guard against attacks by summoned creatures. In addition, considering that the intelligence about the crooked dragon has changed, we also ask for help from nearby fortresses." The mages of the Morgana family seem to be the type who love what they do. They are very responsible for their own work and can see the performance of the soldiers in remote countries. "This crooked dragon is elusive. Once it launches an attack, let Your Excellency Frost Moon Dragon suppress it on the ground as much as possible and never let it escape. After the two adults take action, I will be on guard nearby to guard against sneak attacks from other powerful demons."

Fili was a little embarrassed. It wasn't that the wizard's tactical arrangement was wrong, it was simply that she herself was a little weak. She was not a true deity, but she was not weak either.

After coming to Miriam, and playing the role of Fili for a year, the power of deception has undergone a new change. It not only dabbles in the dream world, but also has the lies to create Bahamut, and now spreads Pandora's hope. Deception can do so many magical things, and at night it can get the protection of the blue moon. It is not impossible to interfere with the position of the godhead with the strength of a hero.

Come on, fight! Jump over the crooked dragon in front of you and use it as a stepping stone on the road to godhood.

Chapter 169 No One Will Be Kind to the Demon

The demons are a huge branch. As time goes by and their bloodlines combine, they are gradually merged into "humanity".

Due to the limitations of the current era, there is ultimately a tragically thick barrier between demons and humans.

There are different races within the demon clan, among which demons are a special existence. In the early years, they were all kinds of monsters, strange and bizarre, just like the viruses on the planet, and they were not yet formed. In certain special periods, they gradually tended to be human-like, and became the demons that people are familiar with today.

Even though they look similar to humans, their thoughts are completely different, and the bloodline of demons is dangerous. The offspring from natural reproduction with other races have a high probability of reverting to their ancestral form, which is almost uncontrollable. Today, the new generation of demons still follow the rules of the pre-historical era.

There are some innate obstacles in the demons' personalities, but as thinking creatures, they also have emotions and get afraid. In order to find a way to survive, most demons act in a somewhat paranoid and extreme way, which has led to Kalan's current situation.

"Don't they know? Kalan's current situation is completely manipulated by others. Pandora uses us as bait, and other demons hide behind us. If it succeeds, Kalan will be smashed into pieces. Mother, I want to take you out of Kalan. First, as a human, it is too dangerous for you to live here. Second, the demon's plan will not succeed. No matter what the outcome of the war is, this land is no longer suitable for survival."

In the center of Kalan, a town ruled by demons, a young man of half-demon race sat by the bed, peeling fruit for a weak woman.

The woman stared blankly out the window with lifeless eyes.

There are no humans in this town now, and it is inhabited by various demons.

"Mother, from my personal standpoint, I hope you can live. I am also half human. Even if you are not strong enough, you are the only one in this world who will protect me. Please live."

This woman was originally the daughter of a lord. Because her family was infiltrated by her father, who was a demon, they got married without knowing it. When the disaster broke out in Kalan, her husband slaughtered the entire family at the banquet, and even she almost died.

In the end, it was this half-blood demon who protected her.

The lord's daughter slowly looked at the half-blood demon: "Levi, are you trying to use my human identity to protect you?"

The young man named Levi was silent at first, then he cut the fruit into small pieces and passed them to his mother with a bamboo stick. He nodded gently in response to the question, saying, "Yes, there are human armies all around, and it is difficult to get out. In addition, the gray fog spread by the Witch of Disaster means that we will die sooner or later if we continue to stay here. I have the blood of a demon in my body, and humans cannot tolerate it, but with your protection, I think I can escape the reckoning."

The lord's daughter closed her eyes: "All demons should die..."

Levi's emotions remained unchanged: "I understand your feelings, but please allow me to defend myself, Mother. I am your only child, please save me. Although I am a demon, I have never harmed humans so far. Before my father slaughtered my family, I grew up accepting your education and always considered myself a human. In the end, I just want to survive, and only by escaping from Kalan can I have a chance of survival."

The lord's daughter looked at him again: "Take you away? Then hurt other humans like your father did?"

Levi shook his head: "Mother, I am very pitiful. In the demon society, I am a hybrid with human blood. To humans, I am a demon with original sin. But from my personal standpoint, I just want to survive. Even now, when I talk to you, I am trying to win your sympathy. Only by awakening your maternal instinct can I provide you with shelter. To answer your question, I will not hurt humans for no reason like my father did. If someone tries to kill me, I will not show mercy."

The lord's daughter asked, "Why? Don't you hate humans?"

Levi said in a deep voice: "I don't understand, but my mother is a human. I don't know why I hate humans. Secondly, the demons exclude me because of my bloodline. Since I was a child, you, grandpa, and those retainers have been very kind to me. Since I can't get recognition from the demons, there is naturally no reason for me to stay."

Another emotion appeared in the lord's daughter's eyes: "What if I ask you to avenge me, my child?"

Levi sighed: "I can't do it. I don't have that power, and I don't want to be enemies with the demons. If this is the condition you put forward, then I will plan it seriously."

The lord's daughter took the fruit and said, "You are so pitiful, my child... You really shouldn't have come into this world. I now have an immense hatred for you."

Levi nodded: "You have been deceived and lost your family. Ethically, you should hate all demons."

The lord's daughter reached out and touched his head again: "Let's run away."

Levi held his mother's hand, his eyes sincere and firm: "As a mother, you are my proof that I am a human. Recently, that man followed the witch's advice and is driving the crooked dragon to attack the human rear. As long as we contact the nearest human army, we will have a chance to escape."

The crooked dragon possesses the magical reserves of the dragon race and the strength of a god. Its only shortcoming is that it has no intelligence and will go berserk if not properly controlled, causing the demons to suffer a lot because of it.

Such a dangerous thing is neither suitable for captivity nor for use as a decisive battle weapon. Humans are unwilling to give it up and let it be destroyed easily, so the demon wants to make use of its remaining energy, and Pandora also makes good use of it, diverting the crooked dragon several times so that it is not easily defeated.

But recently, Pandora shared her power of disaster with the crooked dragon, causing it to grow into a monster that spreads gray fog. It has gone mad and is now wreaking havoc behind humans.

It has already achieved initial results.

In order to increase the destruction, the demons are also cooperating with the crooked dragon to carry out more military operations, preparing to take advantage of the crooked dragon's attack to attack more places.

However, multi-line operation is a technical job. If it is played well, it is a multi-line battle, and if it is not played well, it is just sending troops on multiple lines. The individual strength of the demons is very strong. Relying on their strange talents, two or three of them can pose a threat to the human team. They disperse to infiltrate and kill humans.

Of course, certain results can be achieved, but humans are not made of clay.

A few days later, Selena and Chofili stood in the middle of a group of monster corpses. She wiped the sword gently and looked coldly at the demon with his arms cut off on the ground.

Serena was used to the cruelty of the demons and had no sympathy for them: "You are the only one left. I'm sure you have anticipated what the outcome will be if you lose to humans. Don't think about surviving. Do you want to die quickly or do you want to experience everything you did to the Kalan people?"

Demons are extremely egoistic. There may be some individuals who consider the future of the race, but the demon in front of him is not one of them.

"As long as I tell you, you will let my soul go?"

Fili came over dragging a transparent, twisted and kneaded demon soul. She used the power of transformation to imprison the soul of the demon she had just killed, fused it into one, and burned it with the fire of red lotus, controlling the soul to the extent that it would not be annihilated, allowing them to remain awake and endure the pain together.

Seeing this behavior, the demon felt that the witch in front of him was the real demon. He didn't want to become a monster, nor did he want to suffer eternal pain. The best option was to die and rest in peace.

Fili raised her hand to guarantee: "I swear to the Wheel of Fortune that as long as you confess the whereabouts of the other demons, I will spare your soul."

The demons saw indifference and disdain in Fili's eyes. They, the demons, would surely die if they encountered such a big guy.

In the battle just now, all the demons fell into hallucinations and were unable to resist. Now there are means of torturing their souls. It should not be difficult to get their secrets. In this case, it is better to confess voluntarily in exchange for a peaceful death.

"Our ultimate goal is to manipulate the crooked dragon to attack the Antalen Fortress and pollute the Alliance Army's largest granary."

"okay, I get it."

Fili nodded slightly, and the soul ball in her hand slowly approached the demon, who couldn't help but show fear.

"I'm telling the truth! We dispersed the attack without any tactics. We just wanted to divert the attention of humans. Our goal was Fort Antaron. You swore to the Wheel of Destiny that you can't kill me, otherwise your path will be disturbed."

"Oh, well, I lied."

Isn't it normal for the Witch of Falsehood to lie?

Chapter 170: Discussion with Hecate and Preparation for the Dragon War

Antalen Fortress, an important granary of the Restoration Army on the northern front of Kalan, connects the entire front line. The demon attempts to control the crooked dragon to attack the fortress. With the power of disaster, the crooked dragon can pollute the land even if it crashes into the fortress.

Now that Fili knew about this, he couldn't let them succeed, so he, a master of two-line micro-manipulation, began to operate.

Fili took Selena to do what she could in Kalan. Since they were leading the troops to attack and suppress the demons, they had to organize defense every time they arrived at a place, so it was difficult for Fili to move.
