Chapter 1034 After the Civil War

Chapter 1330 Mimir's Homeland

Hao Ren had already seen many alien races on Earth – werewolves, vampires, shadow demons, descendants of gods, and demon hunters, but Mimir was definitely the most special of these alien races. This huge head came from a guardian giant, a demigod servant created by the Goddess of Creation, originally responsible for supervising the various mortal races of the Dream Plane. Why would such a guardian giant end up on Earth?

Hao Ren vaguely felt that if he could uncover the truth about Mimir's arrival on Earth, he could figure out the process by which other alien races had crossed over to Earth.

A demigod guardian was unlikely to have been "blasted" here like the other alien races; perhaps he bore some kind of mission?

Mimir seemed a little confused after hearing Hao Ren's question: "Where from? Are you talking about the Well of Wisdom? Oh, I never expected you to be interested in it. It collapsed along with the Yggdrasil spatial chains thousands of years ago..."

"I'm not talking about that," Hao Ren waved his hand. "Where do you think the various supernatural races on Earth come from?"

As soon as he said this, the expression on Mimir's face quickly became serious.

The old giant realized that the man before him was different from the shallow juniors he had seen before. This "human" had raised a rather fundamental question.

"Some scholars among the demon hunters have studied these things," Mimir said, carefully choosing his words. "Odin also thought about these things—he was a smart fellow. None of these people's studies have come to any conclusions, but since you specifically raised this question, I think you must have at least thought…we are not native to this planet."

Hao Ren carefully observed the changes in Mimir's expression, and he took a breath: "It seems that you, like the others, don't remember things from another world. Maybe…that's a good thing for you."

Mimir: "What do you mean?"

"Because it's not a good memory," Hao Ren shook his head. "Do you know what news Hsu brought back when he returned from Ankatelo territory?"

Mimir frowned slightly: "It is said that he unlocked the secret of the innate hostility between the various races, and the evidence that the demon hunters were controlled by the 'hunting instinct' for a long time. It can be said that the Second Madness Disaster began after he returned from Ankatelo…the news he brought back stimulated the saints who had been seriously affected by the Dark Sword, and the balance was broken, which led to the outbreak of the dark side in the saints' hearts."

Hao Ren nodded, roughly understanding Mimir's understanding of the truth: it seemed that Hsu had not had time to announce the whole truth about the divine blood sin. The news that Mimir had found out was also incomplete. The old giant only knew that the truth about the innate hostility had been revealed, but he didn't know the story behind the truth.

Hao Ren considered it for a moment, and had a plan in his mind. He nodded slightly to Mimir: "Then let's deal with the mess left by this civil war first. After everything settles down, Vivian and I have something to tell you."

"Looks like you're going to give me a 'preventative shot' now?" Mimir's mouth curled up slightly, saying a very fashionable word for him. Although he was trapped in this tower, he still knew a lot about the changes in the outside world. "I can feel…it's probably not a good thing."

"Perhaps this will completely end the peaceful life you want," Vivian told the truth. "But it will also give you the opportunity to recognize your compatriots. Yes, you should have guessed it—we know where the supernatural races on Earth come from, including news of your homeland and compatriots. In order to thank you for telling us those valuable truths, we will also tell you these things."

"Compatriots…" Mimir's eyes changed slightly, then slowly lowered his eyelids. "I understand, then I will wait for you."

In the following days, the order of Corpse began to gradually recover, and the statistics and finishing work of this civil war was also in full swing.

When the power of the Godslaying Sword dissipated, the shadow that had shrouded this other space for thousands of years finally faded away. As expected, the surviving members of the Elder Priesthood began to gradually regain their sanity, and the Priesthood commander who had been most severely affected gradually returned to normal. After referring to the process of Claude regaining his sanity, Lanina's demon army's great magicians externally stimulated the affected Priesthood warriors, greatly accelerating their recovery speed.

The Spirit Clock Tower, which had once been twisted into another dimension, also returned to its normal appearance within a few days. The spatiotemporal structure of each floor of the tower gradually stabilized, and the missing floors and rooms also returned. The subsequent investigation team found many demon hunters who had been trapped for a long time in those once-hidden areas. Fortunately, apart from being extremely weak, these demon hunters were not in serious trouble.

The additional architectural structures in the Spirit Clock Tower returned to the cracks in time and space. Before these areas disappeared, Tu Taning only had time to roughly map these areas, which might help the demon hunters understand the structure of this spatiotemporal tower.

Although the Spirit Clock Tower seemed dangerous and unpredictable compared to other relics in Corpse, the demon hunters still regarded it as a holy place, and they could not give up this tower.

Along with the recovery of the Spirit Clock Tower, the demon hunters who were originally trapped in the tower and turned into walking corpses were also restored. Their restoration was probably the most encouraging news for the other demon hunters—at least in this terrible and difficult situation, this was good news enough to stabilize people's hearts.

The remaining leaders of the Elder Priesthood, the elder class among the foreign demon hunters, and the personal disciples and attendants cultivated by the Twelve Saints on weekdays—these were the elite teams and potential groups in the demon hunter group. In the Corpse civil war (the Second Madness Disaster), they were all trapped in the Spirit Clock Tower, and thus survived this catastrophe. Now these highly respected people who have just regained their spirits are trying to get rid of the remaining influence of the dark whispers in their minds, and are starting to understand the situation and rebuild order. Now that the Saint Group is completely destroyed and the Elder Priesthood exists in name only, these temporarily assembled elders and masters must reorganize a management team as soon as possible, otherwise this disaster will not be truly over.

Fortunately, they are doing a good job: after all, those who can reach this position are not mediocre. Even an elder like Hsu, who spends all day outside subduing demons and eliminating demons, has accumulated considerable wisdom with thousands of years of experience. With the assistance of the survivors of the original Elder Priesthood, everything is going smoothly.

Hao Ren and the others have been staying in Corpse these days, helping the demon hunters deal with the aftermath.

A large temple floating tens of kilometers "below" the Spirit Clock Tower was used as a temporary dispatch center and a transfer station for large troops. This temple was the least damaged in the previous battle, so it was the first to restore its function.

The huge square in front of the temple became the place where the demon army soldiers were stationed. Hao Ren and Lanina stood on a high platform at the entrance of the palace, watching the spirit technicians who were setting up evil energy broadcasting towers on the edge of the square. The latter slightly pursed her sexy purple lips: "After these broadcasting towers are set up, there will be wifi in the station..."

Hao Ren: "..."

Everyone must not have forgotten that the demon army came to Earth through an unstable spatial rift.

Everyone should not have forgotten that Hao Ren opened that rift with a one-time explosion…

Since the one-time space channel has been destroyed, the demon army must stay on Earth for a while longer. Hao Ren certainly can't let them run to the human world to cause trouble, so naturally he let this army continue to stay in Corpse. The demon army soldiers had no objection to this arrangement, and after learning that the stay might be as long as half a month, they began to prepare for such a long stay. Humans and demon guards set up camps in several larger building complexes, and the spirit technicians took out various high-tech gadgets that the demon army had made themselves. The wifi that Lanina mentioned was one of them…

The demon hunters also had no objection to this arrangement. They had just survived this crisis with the help of the demon army. At this time, they were in a state of "favorability towards the demon camp +99", so naturally they welcomed these alien visitors to stay for a few more days. Moreover, the demon army was also helping to restore the internal order of Corpse, which was exactly what the demon hunters were hoping for.

"War…" Looking at the noisy legion soldiers in the square, Hao Ren suddenly said in a low voice, "Thanks to you this time."

Lanina's slender succubus tail circled twice in the air, and she smiled and looked at Hao Ren: "There's no thanks or no thanks. We fight for our king, without asking the cause or the consequences. The king's order is the only reason for us to die. And we are soldiers, soldiers who have fought all over the world—we came to fight, it doesn't matter who we fight with."

Lanina said and paused: "And putting these two points aside—you are still the lord of Aylim, and we are the subjects. It is natural for the subjects to join the army. If you protect us, you always have to pay something. It is said that those elves have helped you a lot, so we have to do something, right?"

"As a demon…" Hao Ren looked at the succubus sister beside him with a slightly dumbfounded expression, "Your values are really upright enough."

Lanina shrugged: "As a demon, my values are actually so crooked that they have no boundaries."

Hao Ren twitched the corners of his mouth and moved his gaze away from Lanina's face without showing any signs: although this sister is indifferent, she is still a high-level succubus. It's better not to stare at her when you have nothing to do. It's too easy to lose control…
