Chapter 1345 - Forced Redemption (1/2)

Translator: Henyee Translations  Editor: Henyee Translations

As one of the earliest higher ascendants to become a grand lord, Valkries’ words naturally carried a different weight. She was also the only one who could maintain her normal conversational tone when she talked with the King, as if there was no difference in class between the two. More importantly, the King had never shown any opposition, which was enough to prove the point.

A conclusion drawn by the Nightmare Lord naturally carried its own persuasive power.

Moreover, Hackzord had indeed discussed the possibility of the humans’ inheritance of a legacy with her. Although she didn’t say it personally, everything else were reasonable assumptions. He also intentionally brought the matter up after he showed the Western Front’s battle situation from his memory. Perhaps the King might ascertain his claim while he was reading his memories, but it was unlikely he would verify this matter specifically.

After all, the King’s mind had a high level of autonomy, all the decisions he made were only based on facts.

The purpose of these words was to shut the mouths of dissenters.

Blood Conqueror’s pitiful brain was unable to understand the situation at all and was only responding instinctively.

In order to shirk responsibility, Mask naturally would not stand on his side easily.

The other grand lords were on the fence; to place the future of their race in their hands was a joke.

Thus, Hackzord said this lie with complete confidence and without feeling a single shred of pressure.

Backing away now was the biggest irresponsibility to the race.

He had to turn the tables with his own hands!

“An inheritance that we do not know of, that is too far-fetched…” Mask said suspiciously in a low voice. “We all saw the scene in the Origin of Magic. If a race like this really existed, where would they be?”

“Who can be sure that the conclusion that our race came to before is definitely correct?” Hackzord said solemnly. “I also don’t believe that humans can receive fate’s favor, but their incredible change is right in front of eyes! Don’t forget, before we received the legacy of the underground civilization, we also didn’t know that legacy shards can actually be divided.”

“You mean—” Resentful Heart seemed to have thought of something.

No, I don’t mean anything at all, my only aim is to lead you to the reply that I constructed. “Among the many ruins, if there were just one legacy shard still left behind…”

All the grand lords fell into deep thought.

Except for Blood Conqueror.

“So what? I absolutely refuse to use the Deity of Gods against those lowlifes! The strength of the Sky-sea Realm’s offense is still increasing, we have finally gotten a chance to catch our breaths now, we should take this chance to secure our defensive line. If we don’t have the Deity of Gods, the Eastern Front can hardly withstand the battles that are taking place all the time. As soon as the army is defeated, over ten cities will be exposed under the enemy’s minions!”

But this time nobody said anything to support him.

“Compared to a dozen cities, the future of our race is what you should be focusing on.” Hackzord swept his gaze over him expressionlessly, then he looked at the Birth Tower in the middle of the Holy See. “Your Majesty, losing the Deity of Gods on the Eastern Line would indeed exacerbate the current advantage over there, but at least it won’t reach the worst outcome. Right now, time is not standing on our side. The humans are absorbing the legacy they have received at a startling rate—since sacrifice cannot be avoided, our next step will be key.”

“Hackzord, that is my army!” Blood Conqueror roared.

The Sky Lord turned a deaf ear to him. “You have all seen how exquisite the warring weapons that the humans have created are. More importantly, Primal Demons can also use them! If our race can absorb their legacy and use fiery rain and the iron birds for ourselves, we can also turn the tables on the Sky-sea Realm! Even if we lose the entire Blackstone region, the final victors of the Battle of Divine Will, will be us!”
