First War Zone Command of Huaxia
The supreme commander, Marshal Gao, stepped onto the stage, looked at the somewhat noisy meeting room below, and a hint of dissatisfaction flashed in his eyes, but he ultimately suppressed it.
"I won't waste any more time on small talk, everyone. The fate of humanity rests on your shoulders!"
There was no sentimentality, no bureaucratic jargon; it started with a heavy topic.
The noisy venue, which had previously been filled with some background noise, had now fallen silent.
Besides high-ranking military officers, the majority of those present were armed warlords of all kinds, with Liu Sandao prominently among them.
However, he had undergone a complete transformation in temperament compared to the naive college student he once was. The once innocent young man could now drive anyone into the abyss of desire with just a glance.
" The Saber Devil - Liu Sandao!"
This was the nickname given to Liu Sandao by the survivors over a period of two months.
This guy has a city's worth of people living in captivity, fighting against evil spirits and demons while battling the central government army, and also establishing a mysterious religion in his small city.
If it weren't for the Ancient God becoming increasingly violent, and the government forces threatening that those who didn't join the fight against the Ancient God would suffer the same fate as them, enduring nuclear annihilation, Liu Sandao wouldn't have come.
Of course, he didn't come here out of fear of a nuclear attack; he personally isn't afraid.
With his current Demigod strength, although he couldn't withstand a direct nuclear attack, they still had to hit him.
He can fly, Divine Sense for early warning, and is almost impossible to be hit by rigid human technological weapons.
The real reason was that he received a task from the system, and it was the final task at that.
[Final Mission: Drive Away the Ancient God ]
[Reward: Become a God]
The two simple words were unpretentious, yet they were something Liu Sandao couldn't refuse.
To be precise, it was something that none of the 18 Demigod in the world could refuse.
Xu Xiao dispersed all his power, transforming it into five thousand Seed of Desire, using this chaotic world to desperately exploit the desires of the people in this land.
Nowadays, it's no secret that those favored by the system are the leaders of armed warlords who have the ability to confront the government; they are all these ' Desire Pursuers ' with extraordinary abilities.
These humans, indulging their desires, draw upon the desires of the world through the Seed of Desire, then transform them into power to strengthen themselves, and even fight and kill each other to seize more Seed of Desire.
The Seed of Desire is the power bestowed upon them by Xu Xiao; with each additional seed, their own power naturally increases.
By killing and plundering more Seed of Desire, and by indulging in unrestrained desires, the most outstanding among them possessed the power to briefly contend with the Ancient God and were thus called Demigod.
Now, seven Demigod from Hua State have been invited by the government army to join forces against the increasingly active ancient Ancient God of Huaxia.
"Everyone is well aware of the dangers posed by the Ancient God, so I won't go into details here."
"As you've probably noticed, with the passage of time, the Ancient God ' vengeance upon reality has become more frequent, and their power has grown increasingly stronger."
"We speculate that these Ancient God are growing stronger through human fear or other means we cannot access. If they don't join forces, humanity will face true destruction."
After Marshal Gao finished speaking on the stage, he looked at the camp of those Desire Pursuers.
If the Academy of Sciences hadn't deduced that the Ancient God might be Absorbing Man emotions to grow stronger, he would never have compromised with these opportunists.
But now is not the time to dwell on these matters. The government forces need these extraordinary beings to carry out a true annihilation plan.
Only Demigod can briefly restrain the Ancient God, buying time for humanity's technological weapons to strike.
In particular, Huaxia is a vast and resource-rich land, and of the 13 Ancient God, five are still living on the land of Huaxia.
If it weren't for the fact that Huaxia possesses a top-tier military and a massive number of Desire Pursuers as its main force, Huaxia would have been shattered by the Ancient God long ago.
However, the Ancient God have been growing stronger according to calculations, a fact that both the government forces and the Desire Pursuers must be well aware of.
If this continues unchecked, humanity's hope will dwindle over time.
However, it's clear that not everyone can see this problem clearly.
"Hey! Old Man Gao, you're not planning to use these high-sounding words to lure us to the battlefield, are you?"
" The Ancient God are not so easy to deal with. To be honest, apart from nuclear weapons, you probably don't have any other attacks that can harm them, right?"
"Are you planning to use us as cannon fodder to hold them off, and then you all go and take us down with you?"
The speaker was a Demigod among the Desire Pursuers, codenamed Madman.
Although this guy is Demigod, he has no power whatsoever and is a complete loner.
But compared to everyone else, he was the craziest.
They act impulsively; one second they might be slaying demons and eliminating evil spirits, and the next they might turn their attention to humans.
He acts without any rules or rules, doing whatever he pleases, which is why he's called Madman.
"That's exactly what I wanted to say. After all, your government forces have always viewed us as traitors and wanted to eliminate us as soon as possible."
"Tsk tsk~ Taking advantage of this cooperation, you could send us out to confront the Ancient God head-on, and then wipe us out along with you."
Another woman, dressed in a flamboyant manner, spoke up.
She had a shapely figure and wore a black half-face mask, revealing only her smooth chin and eyes.
Although her exact features are unclear, even just a glimpse of her face is enough to tell that she is a great beauty.
In addition, her alluring aura would make any man's mind wander after just one glance.
Desire Devil -- Liu Qingqing
Also one of the Demigod of Huaxia, she indulged in sensual pleasures, bewitched the mortal world, and silently controlled all living things. Even Ancient God would be momentarily stunned under her mental control.
"I understand your concerns, and I can only offer verbal assurances. After all, it is indeed necessary for you to risk your lives to stop the Ancient God and buy time for the nuclear weapons to lock onto the enemy."
Marshal Gao on the stage did not offer any explanation; this was the only way.
After experiencing several nuclear attacks, the Ancient God also learned to evade.
Without the restraint of Demigod, it would be extremely difficult for nuclear weapons to strike the enemy.
But some things, you have to do even if there are difficulties, and you have to do them even if there are no difficulties. You absolutely cannot do things that would cause the Ancient God to destroy everything humankind has.
"All I can do is have Major General Lin Xiao accompany you so that we can be teleported away together when nuclear weapons arrive. That's all I can guarantee."
"Of course, if you don't trust me, you can place a curse or restriction on this old man, and I will pay with my life if you die."
"Shouldn't that be considered my sincerity?"
After Marshal Gao finished speaking, the entire audience erupted in uproar. No one had expected that this high-ranking old man would be willing to risk his life.
