Stábile astonishing, causing the surrounding powerful figures to gasp in surprise.

What kind of enemy could possibly wipe out both the Commanding Gods at the same time?

Countless people held their breath, waiting for the next installment.

"Those were terrifying enemies from another dimension, possessing formidable power and boundless numbers. They swarmed onto the continent like bees, exhibiting unparalleled adaptability and destructive power. At the beginning of the war, the gods and demons did not pay much attention to these enemies, because they were simply the epitome of barbarity and backwardness, unable to even speak, as hateful and ugly as insects. Such arrogance and contempt paid the price, because although the enemy was backward, they were not weak. They could reproduce and spread like a plague. Just think about the several infamous undead frenzies in the history of the continent, and then think about the celestial chaos that just happened in the Southern Region, and you will understand how terrifying that scene was."

Stábile's voice possessed a shattering Magic Power that sent chills down everyone's spines.

The tragedy in the Southern Region is imminent.

In this tragedy, the angels, relying on their inexhaustible numbers, nearly wiped out all life on the entire Southern Region Continent. If it weren't for the Human Emperor of the Northern Region destroying the Goblin Realm and killing the culprit Platini, not only the Southern Region but the entire Azeroth Continent would have been in danger of falling.

Only those who have experienced this brutal tragedy can truly understand how terrifying that overwhelming human wave tactic really is.

"As the war continued, within a short period, vassal races were wiped out one after another, vast tracts of land fell, and countless powerful alien beings and gods perished, including some formidable figures from both the divine and demonic races. Only then did the divine and demonic races realize the severity of the crisis and were forced to join forces against the enemy. However, it was too late. In less than three months, numerous gods had fallen, and both the God Clan capital [ Garden of Eden ] and the Demon Clan capital [ City of Eternal Night ] had fallen. Meanwhile, those enemies from other dimensions, those terrifying insects, were able to absorb the primal power of the powerful and continuously evolve, producing individuals comparable to the war God of War of the God Clan race and the supreme beings of the Demon Clan race. At this point, the situation had become irreversible. They were like Defiler, leaving a trail of contamination wherever they went. Therefore, the divine and demonic races called these damned insects [ the Defiler ]."

Stábile said slowly.

Although it was just a few words, coming from the mouth of someone Stábile, they still allowed those around to feel the horror and cruelty of that earth-shattering battle. They could imagine one god after another falling from the sky with mournful cries, blood spreading across the earth, countless corpses piled up for miles, and rivers of blood flowing like rivers.

Sun Fei was also taken aback.

As expected, they are Defiler; as expected, they were talking about Defiler.

So all the information I had before was correct.

"The proud and powerful gods and demons were driven to the Dwarf Clan brink of extinction in less than three months. As for the other major vassal races, such as the Orc Clan, Elf Clan, Gnome Clan, and Dragon Clan, they were either wiped out or forced to leave the continent. Civilization collapsed at an unimaginable speed. The time was too short and too fleeting, so much so that civilization could not be preserved. Almost nothing was preserved to provide clues for future generations, which explains why later generations have almost no memory of this history."

Stábile slowly.

Everyone around was stunned.

Some people lowered their heads to think.

This matter is simply too unbelievable.

This is the first time someone has made such a claim.

"No, there are still some things that can't be explained. According to Your Majesty, all the races on the Azeroth Continent were basically wiped out in that cataclysmic event? The gods and demons were also defeated? Then why did the Human Clan survive? And where did those terrible enemies, the so-called [ Defiler ], go? As the victors, why are they nowhere to be seen on the continent now?"

In the distance, a powerful Human Clan warrior couldn't help but shout.

Indeed, Stábile's words still have many flaws; at the very least, the existence of the Human Clan and the disappearance of the victors cannot explain everything.

Sun Fei nodded in agreement.

In fact, this is also a mystery he has been pondering.

However, according to Zhong Dajun, it was the victors, the [ Defiler ], who deliberately showed mercy to the Human Clan.

As predators, they possessed an intelligent system and did not wish to deplete resources. After hunting down those powerful beings, the Human Clan, as a rapidly reproducing but weak race, was preserved as a "seed."

The [ Defiler ] leave Azeroth, this hunting ground, to plunder and hunt in other hunting grounds, waiting for the [seeds] to sprout and grow on the Azeroth Continent. When Human Clan reproduces again and its civilization flourishes once more, the [ Defiler ] will descend once more to carry out another round of hunting.

This is a reasonable explanation.

Sun Fei originally thought that Stábile would say the same thing.

However, a mysterious smile appeared on the old Old Man's face as he shook his head and said, "Wrong. In reality, although the gods and Magic City falling one after another, and only a handful of each race remaining, it was ultimately the gods and demons who won the final victory in this war."

What?

Sun Fei almost cried out in surprise.

Did they win?

Wasn't it the [ Defiler ] who drove the Commanding Gods to their doom?

This was completely different from everything I knew—not just different, it was a complete 180-degree turn. Victory and defeat were two entirely different outcomes.

"Since the gods and demons were victorious, why are they no longer seen on the continent? Why did the era of gods and demons completely disappear? Why did civilization collapse?" Sun Fei asked, frowning.

Stábile looked at Sun Fei with a strange attitude, not answering Sun Fei's question, but instead asking, "Child, it seems you already knew about the existence of the [ Defiler ], and also knew some secrets about the destruction of the Age of Gods and Demons, is that right?"

Sun Fei nodded.

"That's it. What you understand is just the surface. What I'm saying is that the gods and demons did indeed achieve final victory. They completely annihilated the [ Defiler ], but they also paid a heavy price, almost to the point of extermination. In particular, the then-rulers of the God Clan and Demon Clan sacrificed their lives to kill the [ Defiler ]. After the final battle, less than ten wounded gods and demons survived on the entire continent, along with the majority of the Human Clan."

Stábile seemed like a reasonable explanation.

He continued, "It was these last ten Demon God who created the Holy Church. To the Human Clan forget the horrors of this war, the gods and demons used their great powers to erase Human Clan's memory of this history and also destroyed some evidence of their existence. As Human Clan gradually prospered on the continent, the gods and demons, due to the recurrence of their injuries and shortened lifespans, passed away one after another. The last traces of the era of gods and demons were thus obliterated in the long river of history."

Sun Fei fell silent.

Fourth update.
