Chapter 359 Herka's Past (Part 2) (Thanks to the passerby for the donation)
Ray returned to the capital earlier than Zuo Junshou's death, so he witnessed the decadent lifestyle of the capital's officials and knew that the upper echelons were planning to invade other planets after repelling the evil spirits' invasion.
Ray truly didn't know whether to laugh or cry. It was only natural that such a race and such a civilization would perish. The fact that a small number of survivors were able to rebuild the civilization was truly a gift from God.
The arrival of the Crimson Flame Emperor foreshadows the increased intensity of the Evil Emperor's invasion of Herka Star, and the power displayed by the Crimson Flame Emperor is also above that of the Rakshasa Azure Emperor.
He pinpointed the true command tent of the Left Army Commander, and then, with unparalleled divine power, descended and burned the Left Army Commander to ashes within the camp.
His powerful aura shocked all the intelligent soldiers in the camp, and when they relayed the news back to the capital, the shock was amplified among the people of the capital.
In a panic, the leader reassigned his troops to resist the enemy. This time, no one dared to show their faces; they all became ostriches. The leader could only angrily call out names.
This time, Ray found himself not forced to follow the general on his campaign; he stayed by the Führer's side.
Of course, if he wanted, he could fly to distant places to see other scenes; in this dream, he had much more control.
Ray floated to the battlefield to watch the war between the Herka aliens and the evil spirits. As expected, the Herka army suffered repeated defeats, and its high-ranking officers were constantly killed by Susis.
The only thing that surprised Ray was that the Crimson Flame Emperor Volem possessed extremely advanced battle formation command abilities!
Ray was shocked. He couldn't even tell what level the Crimson Flame Emperor's command ability had reached, because it was too high for his eyesight to see.
In short, under the command of the Crimson Flame Emperor, the evil spirits easily defeated the Herka Star Legion, and the extermination of the mutated zombie puppets was also much easier than before.
Even when the Herka Empire sent out the so-called "Zombie King," Volem remained calm and composed, then calmly commanded his army to wear down the enemy before finally joining forces with Susis to defeat them.
Moreover, his fighting style combines the violence of fire with the mystery of the mystic, making him an even more troublesome opponent than Susis.
If this is the Radiant Yellow Emperor Saft, Ray would not be surprised at all. In their limited contact, Ray knows that Saft is a person of great ability and wisdom.
But according to Wu Erqi and the others, the Crimson Flame Emperor Volem... is an idiot.
The Herka aliens' defenses were steadily approaching the capital, and everyone in the city, from nobles to commoners, was filled with anxiety, unsure of how to cope.
Some people wanted to surrender and gained the support of others, but their surrender was swiftly and decisively suppressed by the leader's military force.
The calls to surrender have died down, but the war must go on; if we can't win, nothing we say matters.
Left with no other option, the leader had to resort to his trump card. He took out the Imperial Jade Disc, kowtowed three times and nine times while holding it, and walked step by step into the depths of Herka Star.
"Honorable Herka Star Soul, please save your child one more time."
In an instant, the Imperial Jade Wall emitted a dazzling four-colored light, which split into four rays that drilled into the four stone pillars standing around it.
The jade disc shattered with a crisp sound. The leader stared blankly at the broken fragments, then saw the four stone pillars transform into four spirits, who were:
Ancient War Demon;
Ancient Sword Saint;
Ancient sages;
Ancient wandering knights.
Star Soul Herka did not appear in person, but only sent four subordinates to help the Herka aliens, but the leader was still extremely grateful.
With the addition of the four ancient guardians, Herka's disadvantage on the battlefield was instantly contained.
The Crimson Flame Emperor and the Rakshasa Azure Emperor could not tolerate this, and they challenged the ancient guardians.
Unfortunately, the ancient guardians were far inferior to the Five Emperors in combat power. Even when the four of them joined forces, they were no match for the Flame Emperor and the Azure Emperor. They could only rely on the power of Herka Star to barely hold on.
Seeing that the ancient guards were outwardly strong but inwardly weak, the Crimson Flame Emperor had already made up his mind. He commanded his army to launch a fierce attack on the capital of Herka.
The leader's heart nearly leaped out of his chest as he looked at the surging tide of evil spirit soldiers. He cried out in anguish to the four ancient guardians, hoping that Lord Star Soul could intervene and help them defeat the invaders.
The ancient guardians did not answer; they would only strictly follow Herka's orders. If they insisted on doing things their own way, they would have no intention of protecting this civilization.
This is simply the worst class they've ever protected!
As an observer, Ray's emotions were like a rollercoaster as he watched this history unfold.
He felt that the ancient guardians were about to be defeated and that this civilization was about to perish.
Then the Dark Ages ended, and the remnants of Herka, having learned their lesson, reformed themselves, multiplied and grew stronger, absorbing and assimilating other elven races to form the new Herka people.
Ray thought he had guessed correctly...
"Ancient Guardians, come forth and meet the challenge!"
The Crimson Flame Emperor flew over the capital, looking down arrogantly at the entire city. There was only one obstacle left to eliminate the Herka aliens: these four old geezers.
The Crimson Flame Emperor planned to resolve this farce with minimal losses: he challenged the Ancient Guardians to a duel and then defeated them.
A city without ancient guardians is just a sandcastle, easily destroyed.
The four ancient guardians exchanged a glance, then flew into the sky together, choosing to engage in battle.
"Four seniors, don't fall for his tricks!"
The leader spoke grandly, seemingly concerned about the four ancient guardians, but in reality, he was worried that if the four of them were defeated, no one would be able to protect the city.
Herca City also has some ancient restrictions that can only be fully utilized by the ancient guardians. Without them, Herca City would have been impossible to defend.
"Hmph, I thought you guys would continue to be cowards."
"Red Flame Emperor Volem sneered."
The ancient sage snorted coldly and said, "Crimson Flame Emperor, you have used evil means to invade Herka Star. As the guardians of Herka Star, we will never bow down easily."
"Then I'll beat you until you bow down!"
"Are you alone? Isn't the Rakshasa Green Emperor coming?" the ancient wandering knight asked.
"One of me is enough."
The Crimson Flame Emperor stood with his hands behind his back, exuding arrogance.
Susis also had other tasks, which was to launch a general offensive once the ancient guards were exhausted from dealing with the war and their mental energy was no longer sufficient to protect the city below.
Of course, if anything changes on his side, Susis will come to his rescue in time.
But he didn't think that would happen.
"In that case... brothers, let's use that move!"
At the command of the ancient ranger, the four ancient guards simultaneously unleashed their energy. Volem looked disdainful; this level of power would at most injure him, but the four of them would suffer even more.
However, the next moment, Volem was shocked to discover that the power of the four ancient guardians had become very special. It was an energy that was extremely ancient and extremely pure, just like... the energy that this planet was born from billions of years ago.
Freym's eyes widened, his heart filled with extreme fear. He mobilized all his strength to counterattack at top speed.
However, the attack from the four ancient guardians contained the power of the Star Soul, and Volem, caught off guard, was unable to withstand it and was instantly blasted away.
"Do not!!!!"
Susis was multitasking, directing the siege while keeping an eye on the sky. Suddenly, he heard Volem's scream and immediately realized that the situation had changed. He rushed to Volem's aid, only to see Volem crash to the ground like a meteor.
"Vorem!"
As Freym lay on the ground, his chaotic thoughts slowly returned to him with Susis's shout.
"Am I not dead?"
"Vorem said slowly, his eyes filled with confusion."
