  Chapter 676 Secret

  The seal was lifted.

  The iceberg shattered.

  But the most important demon king is missing.

   I have to say that this news has had a huge impact on Aurelia and the others.

"How can it be………"

  Looking at the coffin in front of her, Alleria couldn't believe it.

   "Why is this happening? Obviously according to the legend, the devil should be in the coffin..."

"let me see."

  Duanmuhuai stretched out his hand and pressed the edge of the coffin. Afterwards, his eyes gradually became deep and dim.

  The surrounding world began to change, it was dark, and a blizzard with howling cold wind was blowing in front of him, Duanmu Huai could feel the coffin shaking, and then stopped. Then, the lid of the coffin was opened, and a strange old face appeared in front of him.

   "Can it really be sealed for five thousand years?"

   "I don't know, but for now, this is the best way."

  Another voice sounded, but Duanmuhuai couldn't see his face. He was just looking back through the coffin. As for what the coffin could feel, he couldn't control it.

   "If possible, I really want to kill him directly."

   "But you know this is impossible. If you kill him now, he will come back in at most three hundred years."

   This is true.

  Duanmuhuai shrugged his shoulders. This is the most troublesome thing about subspace creatures. As soul creations, they are almost immortal. The reason for dying is because of different races, and the treatment for resurrection is different. Some of them die like the protagonists of the rebirth stream and can be resurrected from the baby with their own memory, and some lose their memory after resurrection and become completely different people.

But no matter what, unless you have the ability to kill even gods like Duanmu Huai, or the power of the God of Destruction to completely destroy everything, otherwise, compared to killing the opponent and waiting for the opponent for three hundred After the resurrection comes back after a year, it is better to seal it directly.

   If you are lucky, sealing a five thousand and ten thousand year old one is not much more cost-effective than killing it directly.

  So the way most worlds deal with subspace creatures is basically to seal them.

   As for whether the devil king who will be imprisoned and insane after 510,000 years will come out to take revenge, that's none of their business.

   Ten thousand years later, it is estimated that even the bones of their grandson's grandson's grandson's grandson will be ashes. Do you still care about this?

   "Quick, now, let the devil come in!"

Soon, another man dressed as a priest came over and gave an order, and then Duanmuhuai saw a tall barbarian soldier walking over carrying a corpse. Black armor, a head of black hair, and a pair of demon horns on his head—well, if you say this is a demon king, it does look like that.

"boom!"

  The demon king was directly thrown into the coffin heavily, smashing the whole coffin for a while.

   "Be careful!"

  At this time, the old mage from before gave the barbarian a dissatisfied look.

   "The magic circle on this coffin is very delicate, if you smash it a little bit, all previous efforts will be wasted!"

   "If this can be smashed, it means your magic is not very good, old man!"

  The barbarian glared at the old magician and snorted. And an elf archer next to him waved his hand helplessly.

   "It's already this time, you guys are still arguing! Get it done quickly, I always have a bad feeling in my heart..."

  Hmm... Warriors, priests, barbarians, old mages, archers, no matter how you look at them, they all look like a fixed group of five in adventure novels.

   Duanmuhuai concentrated his energy and looked at the scene in front of him again. At this moment, everyone had already stuffed the demon king into the coffin, and pierced the holy sword into his body. Then the old mage, priest, and archer raised their hands and began to chant incantations, while the barbarians and warriors were in charge of guarding. Soon, the magic circle began to emerge, and huge energy trembled within it, and the ice gradually began to freeze. Soon, the ceremony reached the most critical moment.

  However, at this moment, suddenly, a change occurred.

  The warrior standing aside did not know when he walked behind the barbarian, and a sword directly pierced the barbarian's heart. The latter didn't expect to be betrayed by his companion at this time, and fell to the ground with his eyes wide open without saying a word. Then the warrior drew out his long sword and rushed directly towards the elf. He threw out the dagger in his hand and pierced the elf's back impartially.

"what are you doing?!"

  Seeing this scene, both the priest and the mage were taken aback, but it was too late. The warrior had already killed the priest with a backhand sword, and then stabbed another sword into the heart of the old mage.

Since everyone's attention and all their strength were focused on sealing the Demon King, they were completely unprepared for the warrior's sudden attack, so that the warrior easily succeeded. After a while, the four adventurers fell to the ground, staring wide-eyed. The eyes became a dead corpse.

  The soldier walked to the coffin, reached out and grabbed the holy sword—well, at least it seemed that he was quite accomplished in this area.

   "I really didn't expect it, a wonderful betrayal."

   At this moment, another strange man's voice sounded, and Duanmu Huai guessed without thinking that this should be the Demon King.

   "When the devil king is defeated and everything will return to peace, the brave man killed his companions. So, what do you want? Mortals?"

   "A contract."

  The soldier stared at the coffin coldly, and said.

   "A transaction."

"Ha ha ha ha."

  Hearing what the warrior said, the Demon King burst out laughing.

   "Interesting, a deal, what kind of deal?"

   "Give me your strength, I need your strength."

   "You need my power?"

  The voice of the Demon King was full of doubts.

   "You defeated me, and now you need my strength?"

   "You are no longer my enemy, Demon Lord."

  The soldier's tone was harsher than the cold wind in the icy world.

   "Now, I have other enemies that cannot be defeated by just swinging a sharp blade."

   "So, you need my power, funny."

  The devil chuckled lightly.

   "So, what's your deal?"

   "Give me your strength, I can give up sealing you, but you have to make a contract with me, and you will not enter this world again for five hundred years!"

   "It's just not enough!"

  The demon king is obviously not a soft persimmon either.

   "This is not a fair deal!"

   "It's not your turn to decide now, I'm the one who controls the ceremony!"

  The warrior suddenly raised his voice.

   "If you don't want to, then you will be sealed for five thousand years! Choose yourself!"

   "But that's not enough! Since that's the case, I have a proposal too!"

   "... what proposal?"

   "I can agree to your request, but I also have my request, that is, after five hundred years, your descendants will become my servants and be driven by me from generation to generation! Forever! This is a contract!"

  “………”

  Hearing the request from the Demon King, the warrior gritted his teeth, remained silent for a moment, and then nodded.

"make a deal!"

  While speaking, the warrior suddenly pulled out the sharp blade that pierced the Demon King's body.

"very good!"

  The next moment, the coffin suddenly opened, and then a human-shaped shadow flew out of it.

"The contract is established, I will return to my plane immediately, ah, yes, in order to avoid accidents, I will leave a part of my power here - after all, you are the heroes who defeated the devil, aren't you? Right , I took away the souls of your companions, I think they will enjoy life in hell."

   "Go away, Demon King!"

   "Hahahahaha, I am looking forward to that moment five hundred years from now!"

After saying this, the black shadow suddenly flew up into the sky and disappeared into the darkness. The flames it left behind exploded in all directions, swallowing the four corpses instantly, and then turned into a huge demon standing in front of the coffin . At the same time, the soldier let out a roar, and suddenly raised his right hand high. The next moment, endless ice burst out of the ground, completely sealing the huge demon and the coffin.

  “………”

  Looking at the frozen demon and the coffin in front of him, the soldier was silent for a moment, then he turned around resolutely and disappeared into the snowstorm.

  “………”

  How should I put it, this plot is really unexpected.

   Duanmu Huai opened his eyes silently, and glanced at Aurelia with a complicated expression. The latter noticed his eyes and looked at Duanmu Huai suspiciously.

   "What's the matter, Mr. Duanmu?"

   "No, um, I'm very interested in the story of the hero of the Luminas Kingdom, why don't you tell me about it?"

"The legend of the brave? Everyone knows this story. The original brave and his companions went to the extreme north to eliminate the demon king who tried to rule the world. In this great battle, the brave lost his Four companions, but finally succeeded in sealing the devil. After returning, King Ruminas married the princess to the brave man as his wife, and under the glory of the brave man, Ruminas became the most powerful woman in this land. One of the mighty nations..."

   As she spoke, Alleria reached out and pressed the badge on her chest.

   "I am a descendant of the brave family, and I have sworn to protect this country like my ancestors did!"

   "Well, I think it's good that you don't look like him..."

   Facing Aurelia's answer, what else could Duanmu Huai say.

  He felt that if he told Alleria the history he saw from the coffin, the latter might find him desperately.

  Actually, to be honest, Duanmu Huai can guess a little bit of why the brave will turn against the water. The law of cunning rabbits and running dogs has never changed for thousands of years. Once the devil dies, the brave will naturally be useless. As for the ruler, the brave man's high prestige among the people and his powerful force capable of destroying even the devil are obviously a threat.

   Obviously, the brave himself knows this very well.

  He is not a demon king, and it is impossible to live for hundreds of thousands of years. Human beings will always weaken, grow old, and lose everything.

  Maybe this brave man discovered this, so he finally made this decision.

   As for that story—just kidding, he's the only survivor, and he can make it up as he wants.

  But this way... things will be much more troublesome.
