Chapter 529: Chapter 394 King Gandhi's Choice_1 Chapter 529: Chapter 394 King Gandhi's Choice_1 Upon seeing Sky City, Majeko was completely stunned, not only because of the shock of the massive city floating in the sky, but also because… this reminded Majeko of a legend!
“Could this be the Fighting God City?!”
The so-called Fighting God City is an incredibly powerful magic city built by the Holy Demon Sect during the GI era.
Here's a point that needs to be clarified, the calendar on this continent is not determined by humans, but by the existence of the Demon King as a benchmark, from the birth of the Demon King to the death of the Demon King. For example, the era title of Demon King Ji'Er, who was killed by Duanmu Huai, is GL. The GI era is the period ruled by Gaia, who sealed Ji'Er and bore the Blood of the Demon King, after Ji'Er.
During the GI era, a genius magician named Luca Rune created the Living Metal Magic. He formed an organization called the Holy Demon Sect with 24 other magicians. Using their potent magic, the Holy Demon Sect succeeded in unifying the human world for the first time. Then, to fight the Demon Clan, they began to build the Fighting God City, hoping to thoroughly liberate humans from the hands of the demons.
But, of course, the Demon Clan would not just sit back and watch. Quickly, the demons launched an attack on the Holy Demon Sect, marking the beginning of the “Holy Demon War.”
Such a brilliant nation's end, however, was lamentable. Due to the “Barbarians” (refering to humans who can't use magic) not being able to tolerate the long war against the demons, they staged a rebellion. Rune, the chief of the Holy Demon Sect, was naturally furious at being stabbed in the back by his own people. The realization that he had done everything to completely liberate humans from the demons, and now those humans had turned their backs and rebelled against him drove him insane.
A maddened Rune gave the order for the surviving Fighting God City to completely annihilate humanity. But in the end, his crazed command was not carried out and he was defeated by his colleagues, thus marking the fall of an emperor and the descent of Fighting God City from the sky.
Seeing the threat eliminated, Demon King Gaia ordered the demons to retreat, bringing an end to the nearly 100-year-long Holy Demon War.
Only after that did the Herman Kingdom, Lissas Kingdom, and Kingdom of Seth establish themselves one by one, forming a tripartite power structure on the continent.
Actually, beneath the territory of the Kingdom of Seth, the ruins of four Fighting God Cities are present. The Kingdom of Seth constructed the Maginot Line to resist the invasion of the demons using the Mana Amplifier found within those ruins.
But… history is like a ridiculous cycle.
The Fighting God City, once built by supreme magicians, was completely destroyed as “Barbarians” who couldn't use magic betrayed them.
Now, the Magic Kingdom of Seth, built on the ruins of Fighting God City, has also been stabbed in the back by a rebellion of the residents, who cannot use magic, and is about to meet a similar fate as the Holy Demon Sect.
With these thoughts in mind, Majeko couldn't help but feel conflicted.
“Fighting God City?”
Of course, Duanmu Huai had no idea what Majeko was thinking deep inside. But he didn't care either and just shrugged.
“Although I have no idea what this Fighting God City you're talking about is, I can confirm that this is probably not what you're referring to… Alright, let's go.”
There is a simple reason why Duanmu Huai summoned Sky City. This is no longer a war between humans; it's a war between humans and the Demon Clan, and he could no longer stay silent. Duanmu Huai did not summon Sky City against Lissas because the majority of the attack on Lissas were soldiers from Herman instead of the Demon Clan. At the time, Lissas was invaded not by a lot of the Demon Clan but only a few Demons, so Duanmu Huai didn't need to resort to such exaggerations.
But now, with the Demon Army's invasion of Seth becoming a certainty, it's only natural that Duanmu Huai… doesn't need to hold back anymore.
Needless to say, the emergence of Sky City took the Demon Army by utter surprise.
Unlike humans, the lifespan of the Demons is inherently long. A lot of them have even experienced the Holy Demon War. So, when they see that splendid and immense Sky City hovering above them, many Demons feel a jolt in their hearts.
Holy shit, is history about to repeat itself?!
The power of the Fighting God City might be forgotten by humans, but the Demon Clan remembers it vividly!
On top of that, Duanmu Huai's summoning of hundreds of giant dragons, pushing himself to the very limits of his abilities, dissuaded the Demon Army from approaching. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Duanmu Huai gathered the people in the Royal City and swiftly retreated towards the Fortress City.
“We really owe you this time, Your Honor, the Judge.”
Standing next to Duanmu Huai, King Gandhi was full of emotion. To be honest, even King Gandhi was nearly petrified when an entire city flew above his head.
After all, this was something he had only read about in history books!
“It's nothing, for the Tribunal, eradicating demons is our duty.”
Duanmu Huai casually waved his hand, then looked at Gandhi with a puzzled expression.
“But speaking of which, how did things end up like this?”
Naturally, Duanmu Huai knew about the causes and consequences, and guessed that killing Papaya was probably one of the reasons, but Duanmu Huai didn't care. A corrupt, decadent guy like Papaya deserved to die. But what he couldn't understand was how all this happened. Why was there a sudden uprising?
