Magic Chronicles : Fallen Race

"What!?..."

The three apostles were both surprised and delighted.

No wonder the Demon King could still remain so calm. It turned out he had long discovered the weakness of these faceless people.

Hektor: "Your majesty So the weakness of these faceless people are plants?"

"No, it has nothing to do with plants. They were injected with the knowledge of the Hero from a thousand years ago by that Emperor. At the cost of losing their sense of self, they gained the Hero's techniques. But everything has another side. In other words, as long as we bring out new power, these faceless soldiers are no different from puppets."

After hearing Reji's explanation, the apostles finally realized. The previously wary and tense hearts could finally relax a little.

After all, when it came to "new power" different from a thousand years ago...

In fact, they still had quite a bit.

After letting Vielsia test it just now, Reji had already sent orders to the Demon Tower.

Calculating the time, it should be about right.

Just as Reji was thinking, several "rumbling" thunderclaps came from afar.

Thunder clouds began to fill the sky, and one after another purple giant birds soared from the mist at the top of the Demon Tower amidst the lightning and thunder.

As a demon race apostle, Vielsia was not alone.

The entire elf race was now an apostle race of the demon race.

And this was something the demon race did not have a thousand years ago.

Flocks of chimeras arrived at the battlefield from the air. Scorching fireballs, frigid breaths, and surging lightning condensed from their three heads and shot towards the faceless spiritual people below.

One after another, the spiritual warriors under the chimeras' air raid were like wooden targets. They had no idea how to defend at all. They all stood in place in a daze, stupidly being devoured by flames, frozen into ice sculptures by cold currents, and shattered into pieces by thunderstorms.

This was not the end.

At the same time, the earth trembled. The ground troops from the elf race, one after another forest treants wielding long spears, roaring druids with sharp claws, and even mountain giants as tall as small hills carrying ancient giant trees, also surged from the direction of the Demon Tower to the battlefield to provide support.

If one looked carefully, they could find quite a few beastmen figures mixed among them.

The three beastmen at the forefront leading the charge were the most eye-catching. A white fox holding a seven-colored magic ball, a yellow dog raising a staff-like object, and a ferocious-looking crocodile wielding double blades.

They led the beastmen behind them and directly charged into the enemy formation.

Those faceless spiritual people had absolutely no resistance at all because "beastmen", like elves, simply did not exist in their Hero records from a thousand years ago. There was nothing, so naturally, they would not know how to deal with them.

This resulted in the beastmen's current unstoppable momentum, crushing and sweeping away, directly scattering the faceless army.

Although their numbers were not as many as the elves and they did not have an apostle like Vielsia, the beastmen race's innate savagery and love for battle made them a natural bane to these faceless people who were like meat sandbags. Coupled with the resources from the Demon Tower to cultivate and strengthen them, the beastmen army's strength was definitely not to be underestimated.

Just like this, the faceless spiritual people, who previously exerted immense pressure and forced the Great Demons to retreat again and again, barely holding on, now, with the addition of several foreign race troops, directly collapsed.

And taking this opportunity, those previously injured Great Demon soldiers began to quickly retreat under the protection of the elves and beastmen on the front line.

Many white octopuses and bloated decay demons had long gathered and prepared under Reji's initial orders.

They waited for a long time in the rear, just to receive these injured demons. Find adventures at M-V-L

The breeding demons went without saying. These milky white octopuses had extremely strong recovery abilities, not only for themselves but also for other demons.

As for the decay demons, although they looked ugly and unsightly, one would only know their worth when it came to situations with heavy injuries like bleeding, broken limbs, and disembowelment.

The most recent example was a staggering, dying Great Demon soldier whose chest cavity was pierced by a faceless person's light sword, leaving a huge hole. Under such severe injuries, it was the decay demon who arrived and stitched and pieced together this huge wound in emergency treatment, preserving the life of this Great Demon.

After temporarily stabilizing the situation, Reji and the apostles returned to the Demon Tower.

And here, another group of foreign races had already gathered under Reji's orders.

From the extremely excited rat-men and the cold little girl vampire from the blood reace among them, one could know their identities.

That's right, it was the large group of foreign races Reji had rescued from Stillwater Prison.

The characteristics of the faceless army dictated that they could not be countered with the demon race army. On the contrary, even the weakest foreign race, as long as they did not appear a thousand years ago, could all greatly restrain the faceless people.

Now, the backup Reji had left in Stillwater Prison had come into play.

He had started consciously preparing in this direction very early on.

Reji assigned them to the Wisdom Demon, letting Leon command and subdivide this group of foreign race troops to help the demons scattered in various human nations retreat.

Reji ordered the demons to retreat on all fronts, not only to protect the demons but also to protect those local humans who had not been transformed.

Because only in this way could all those faceless spiritual people be attracted away by the retreating demons, moving the battlefield out of the cities.

Otherwise, even though the faceless people only targeted the demon race, just the aftermath of the battle was enough to turn the cities into ruins and cause countless innocent people to lose their lives.

Thinking of this, Reji clenched his fists a little tighter.

He had thought of Sweep and thought that the Emperor would use this ability to create such a group of troops specifically to restrain the demon race. But he didn't expect the Emperor to be so ruthless to this extent. It was not just a small team or a legion, but applying Sweep to all humans.

Doing this was equivalent to instantly causing millions and millions of humans to directly lose their lives and become faceless puppets called Heroes.

However… Most of these faceless people were originally just ordinary people.

Even if they were instilled with the Hero's combat techniques, having techniques without power was useless.

So there must be a huge power source in the distance supplying them, allowing them to become pseudo-Hero warriors that greatly restrained the demon race.

And this energy source was obviously the only one left in the world.

Reji took the projection image urgently sent by Dian.

It was the anomaly of the Empire observed by the Sorcery Demon from afar.

From the projection, one could see that the entire territory of the Empire was now enveloped in a dazzling light.

This light was exactly the same as the one on those faceless people.

In other words...

That Emperor had used the entire Empire as fuel, burning everything of the Imperial citizens to supply these transformed faceless soldiers within the demon race now.

Reji closed the projection.

This was not some case of hurting the enemy by a thousand and losing eight hundred yourself.

Reji opened another panel of his.

The Demon King's Fate Track.

Previously, by relying on the blitzkrieg to quickly conquer three-fifths of the world, the human civilization, which he tried his best to protect, still only had a 25% [Destruction Degree]. Now the value had soared to...
