Then, we'll finish this quickly and make a name for ourselves among the demons.
"?!" The Pope was taken aback. "Explain in detail!"
Chapter 13 still belongs to the Sword Hero! (4k)
Unlike those who need to find a way out, those standing here are An Yi, who has paved the way for the heroes in advance.
From the moment he took over [Nightmare], he had already prepared to promote the establishment of a "Demon Organization" among the demons by the heroes.
Everything is ready, except for the east wind. Lu
Before this favorable wind could even arrive, the higher-ups of the Celestial Cult suddenly told him, "Let's concede," leaving An Yi speechless.
Afterwards, the higher-ups just talked about it amongst themselves, which even caused Lycorina's resolve to waver.
She is the backbone of all heroes, even all of humanity. If she feels she has no other choice and truly has to concede, then all of humanity will surely have to follow suit.
The so-called "Holy Warrior" is more than just a simple warrior.
Her words truly have the power to influence the entire world.
However, there was nothing she could do, because from Lycorina's perspective, she was truly helpless in this situation.
It was Annie who was prepared, not Lycorina.
The Aldrich Church knew all too well how difficult it was to make a name for themselves among the demons from scratch and build a "demon organization" renowned throughout the entire demon border.
It should be noted that the actions of the All-Hero in the Demon Realm were merely minor skirmishes on the Demon Realm's borders.
Things like the killing of minor demon leaders and lords happen almost every day in different places across the vast demon borderlands.
Information dissemination between cities is inherently slow, and this world doesn't have anything like the internet. Trying to create an organization that everyone on the entire demon border knows about to attract attention is no easy task.
but--
With a succubus, it's a different story!
With succubi present, spreading information is not just easy, it's incredibly easy.
Heroes from various regions would normally need to additionally search for demons to spread information, spending a lot of money and energy, while also fighting elite demons.
However, having a succubus organization that spans the entire borders of the demon realm and whose intelligence networks are interconnected is a completely different matter.
Given the succubi's ability to spread information, even in a city like [Water Demon City], where public opinion is heavily manipulated by the Water Demon Viscount, they can spread unfavorable information about him throughout the city.
That is to say, once the heroes establish an organization within the demon race, it might be an exaggeration to say that it will happen overnight, but within two or three months, the entire demon border will definitely know of the organization's existence.
As for disasters that occur at the border, they will be easier to deal with then.
After this "demon organization" gained fame, it began to cause trouble in the cities where disasters occurred. This caused the demons to lose their desire to continue expanding their territory and instead focus on internal crises.
And because of the organization's fame, it caused quite a stir throughout the entire border region of the demon race.
The local demons would only think that they were implicated, and would not consider a rising "demon organization" to be the work of humans.
Once the other party shifts their focus, the problem of the disaster disappears on its own.
When your own lord is in mortal danger, why bother with expanding territory?
"First, we shifted from offense to defense."
Abandon all attacks on demon cities and return the areas where frequent conflicts occur to the demons.
"Those cities were already difficult to conquer completely by heroes alone, so why not turn back and protect the territories that humanity originally possessed?" An'i said.
Not an inch can be given up; this refers to the land that humans originally owned.
Those demon cities had already been polluted by the Demon King's domain, and with frequent wars, there was no need for them to continue occupying them.
The decision to occupy the city was made in the fear that the demons would recover their strength in the city and thus accumulate power to attack the original human territory.
After all, fighting in the wasteland is definitely better than fighting on the outskirts of human cities.
This will not affect anyone living at the border.
"Then, a swift and decisive victory."
Before the disaster becomes uncontrollable, venture deep into the demon city, find the source of the disaster, and hinder them.
The disaster occurred because the demons wanted to expand their territory, and this has been proven over the years.
Therefore, as long as the direct beneficiary of the disaster is found and killed or interfered with, the disaster will not continue to escalate.
Qi said, "Before that, all the heroes need to cooperate to create an organization within the demon race that specializes in hunting demons as a cover."
The disaster can be resolved by establishing this organization as quickly as possible and causing trouble for the demon lords who caused it.
Six is the meaning of speed.
This is a difficult problem for all heroes, including the entire Hero Alliance.
"I can't believe it..." Annie looked at Lycorina.
“Slaying demons isn’t that easy,” Lycorina replied with a smile. “If there are difficulties, we should overcome them. It’s not time for us to give in yet.”
Isn't dealing with the entire demon race already the biggest problem?
Such a challenge is not something even the bravest would fear!
Upon hearing Lycorina's words, all the high-ranking members of the cult felt a tremor in their hearts, overwhelmed by a mix of emotions: gratitude, shame, and excitement.
Yes!
Those who fight on the border! Those who fight among the demons! Those who risk their lives!
They were all chosen by the Supreme God!
They are the bravest warriors in the world!
They are just a group of believers, why should they stand in for the heroes and fear the demons?!
They are not qualified!
"The Holy Maiden is right!"
"That's right! We should overcome difficulties! We were just too cowardly!"
"The Sword Hero is truly farsighted!"
"Humanity is saved!!"
One group of believers wept bitterly, feeling deeply ashamed.
They presumptuously assumed that this was a decision for the good of humanity, and that it was something that heroes could not do.
But they forgot that the heroes were doing the most dangerous thing in the world!
They have killed countless ferocious demons and done countless things that humans could never have done!
Why assume the heroes can't do it?!
The Pope also bowed to Licorina and Any respectively in apology: "It was my oversight!"
After the meeting ended, the high-ranking members of the cult, who had initially been considering making all concessions to support the heroes' actions, went back and immediately cancelled all their original plans and preparations.
The strategy of making concessions was changed to a strategy of upholding principles while fully supporting the actions of the brave.
At the same time, An Yi also learned about the severity of the current [disaster] from the mouth.
To date, the most powerful demon to have appeared in the disaster was a level 10 demon.
And similar disasters occur in large numbers in almost 60% of human territory.
It is predicted that within six months, a large number of level 10 or higher demons will appear outside 100% of human territory.
The disaster is gradually getting stronger, but for the first six months it only involved some very low-level demons.
After all, in the past, a level three demon could lead a large group of level one or two demons to conquer a city.
As early as the first half of the year, the demons that appeared during these low-level disasters became experience packs for the newbies of the heroes.
Then come the increasingly powerful demons; the stronger the demons, the more experience points the heroes gain.
Therefore, the stronger the demons who come, the stronger the heroes become.
Gradually, this has led to the current situation where a large number of demons around level ten have emerged.
The emergence of powerful demons escalated into a series of massive wars.
When low-level demons come, it's just a minor skirmish; but when higher-level demons arrive, the intensity increases significantly.
The fight at the village entrance has now basically evolved into a mythical war, with giant beasts colliding and magic clashing, and the area within a hundred meters being razed to the ground at the drop of a hat.
This is why the Aldrich leadership feels such a great sense of crisis.
If it really spreads to human territory, the consequences will likely be far more severe than just heavy casualties.
It is no exaggeration to say that the suffering of the people was immense.
A grand event, inviting all heroes, will be held to commemorate the first anniversary of the birth of the Holy Hero.
Of course, this excludes the heroes of the Hope Empire.
This is not a waste of time; this meeting will directly determine the heroes' overall strategy going forward.
There are two weeks left until the first anniversary of the birth of the Holy Hero.
These two weeks will be used to refine the plan, finalize the meeting content, and include, but are not limited to, hosting the heroes, convening small meetings of hero representatives from various war zones for intelligence sharing and exchange, and various other things that benefit the heroes.
During this time, An Yi did not contact the succubi of Nightmare; Mel would take care of everything for him.
Rather, it's more accurate to say that the succubus organization itself continued to grow even in his absence.
Although he didn't know what his existence had brought to the organization, seeing that everyone's loyalty was unwavering at 100%, he didn't bother to think about it further.
I don't know why, but since he came back, there seem to be more and more succubi in the [Organization Management] section?
After a quick look, I noticed that many people with low loyalty had also joined as low-level members.
Among them are even more advanced succubi.
Like other miscellaneous demon races, succubi are not limited to level 10 succubi.
It's true that succubi start at level 10, but if a succubus lives in Viscount City, then there must be succubi in Viscount City capable of bewitching demons up to level 13.
The same applies to more advanced cities.
At the level of the [Queen of Succubi], even the Demon King can be seduced.
