Chapter 406 - 407: Buried History
"This power?"
Zane Drake and Cavan Vero’s faces turned extremely grim instantly.
They exchanged glances, and both saw an unprecedented seriousness in each other’s eyes.
"The seal of the Demon Domain... has broken!"
Zane Drake’s voice was dry, tinged with a barely perceptible tremble.
The thing he least wanted to face had finally happened!
And it happened at a time when Aster Grant had not yet returned from Dragon Island, and the Human Race was not fully prepared!
But quickly, Zane Drake calmed himself.
As the Supreme Commander of the entire Human Race, everyone else could panic, but not him.
He took a deep breath, and his powerful voice instantly spread to every corner of the Human Race’s territory:
"All humans heed the order! The Demon Clan’s seal has broken, the catastrophe of world destruction is upon us!"
"From this moment, the entire territory enters the highest state of war!"
"All legions follow the pre-planned strategy, immediately rush to the defense nodes!"
"All Beast Tamers, prepare for a battle to the death!"
"For the survival of the Human Race, fight to the death without retreat!"
As soon as the order was issued, the enormous war machine of the Human Race roared into action with unprecedented efficiency!
Meanwhile, other races interspersed within the Human Race, according to Elara Crimson’s arrangement, carried out their own missions.
In the face of racial peril, all races united as one.
...
The Clan Leader of the Ghost Race, Shade, also sensed this extreme malevolent aura.
His face was filled with seriousness.
"Theo, take a portion of the Ghost Race to support the Human Race."
Upon hearing Shade’s command, Theo nodded.
Since the decision to cooperate with the Human Race was made, the Ghost Race must show its stance.
As for why not deploy the entire clan...?
It’s because a portion of the Ghost Race must remain to guard the Forbidden Land of the Ghost Race.
If the Forbidden Land were to break...
A new wave of Demon Clan would assault the Alternate Space.
"Understood, Clan Leader!"
Theo had no hesitation and immediately began executing Shade’s command.
The task of guarding the Forbidden Land naturally fell upon Shade.
However, fortunately, the Ghost Race currently lacks a Divine Pattern, and they are certainly not the Demon Clan’s primary target for attack.
Therefore, even leaving part of the Ghost Race to guard, Shade is confident there will be no errors.
The Angel Race made the same decision.
Leaving a portion of Angels to guard the Forbidden Land, while another portion of Angels heads towards the Human Race.
However, in the team of Angels heading to the Human Race, it was led by Summer Gardner.
...
On Dragon Island, the Dragon Clan seemed to be agitated and uneasy due to the Demonic Qi from outside.
Countless mighty Great Dragons raised their heads to the sky, letting out low dragon roars filled with battle spirit.
Lazuli, Vera, Snow Maiden, and Sally gathered together, feeling the suffocating pressure from the sky, their faces incredibly grave.
"This aura... far surpasses Totem Level!"
Lazuli and Vera’s eyes were filled with dread.
Inside the cave, it was silent.
The Dragon Emperor stood there calmly, seemingly unaffected by the Demonic Qi outside.
His gaze always fell upon Aster Grant.
When Aster Grant asked the Dragon Emperor for guidance, the Dragon Emperor did not immediately start discussing the so-called truth.
Instead, he shifted the topic, mentioning Isabelle, seemingly unrelated.
"Isabelle awakened here."
The Dragon Emperor’s voice carried a complex emotion that was difficult to describe as he looked at the fractured crystals.
"However, from the time she awoke until now, I haven’t seen her once, and in fact... I can’t meet her."
Aster Grant was shocked upon hearing this.
He had guessed that Isabelle’s identity was noble, but never imagined the Dragon Emperor would choose not to meet his newly awakened daughter?
The Dragon Emperor didn’t wait for Aster Grant to ask; his gaze turned profound again as he looked at Aster Grant, solemnly making a request that left Aster Grant dumbfounded:
"Aster Grant, before I tell you those secrets, I have a request."
"Your Majesty, please speak. As long as I can do it, I will not decline!"
Aster Grant respectfully responded immediately.
The Dragon Emperor agreeing to the alliance was already a tremendous favor, which troubled him as he had no means of repaying.
The Dragon Emperor stared at Aster Grant, speaking each word carefully:
"I hope that someday, you can find Isabelle and make her... your Contracted Tamed Beast."
"What?!"
Aster Grant was completely stunned, almost thinking he misheard!
Make the supremely powerful Dragon Maiden his Tamed Beast?
Not to mention whether Isabelle would be willing, from a benefit perspective, what good does this do for her?
"Your Majesty, this... Miss Isabelle possesses extraordinary strength and noble status; contracting with me brings her no benefit. I fear this matter..."
Aster Grant hurriedly wanted to decline.
However, the Dragon Emperor shook his head, interrupting him:
"This is not a negotiation, but a request."
In his eyes was a depth of meaning that Aster Grant could not fully comprehend.
Aster Grant looked into the Dragon Emperor’s resolute eyes, thoughts swirling in his mind.
He realized that without agreeing to the Dragon Emperor’s request, he would not be told everything.
After weighing his options, he took a deep breath and made a solemn promise:
"Your Majesty, I cannot guarantee that Miss Isabelle will agree."
"But I can promise, should the opportunity arise, and if Miss Isabelle willingly chooses so, I, Aster Grant, will regard her as a partner!"
Hearing Aster Grant’s sincere response, a faint smile finally appeared on the Dragon Emperor’s stern face:
"Good, your words are enough."
Subsequently, the Dragon Emperor said no more, raising his hand, and with a slight wave towards The Void.
In an instant, a massive golden curtain of light unfolded in front of Aster Grant.
On the screen, images began to flow, portraying an ancient history concerning the entire Alternate Space, which had been sealed away for countless ages!
At the beginning of the scene, the Alternate Space bordered the Demon Abyss, where the two gigantic realms were engulfed in a fiercely tragic war.
At that time, the Alternate Space was teeming with strong individuals and Totems; there were even several supreme beings with auras comparable to Demon Gods, revered as "Pseudo-God"!
They led alliance forces of various races to battle the invading Demon Clan’s army fiercely, as the sky and earth turned dark.
The war fell into a long stalemate.
However, as the scene changed.
The Demon God of Malakor was nearly immortal, while the skilled of the Alternate Space could not ultimately resist the erosion of time, no matter how talented they were.
One after another, the powerful Pseudo-God and various overlords either fell due to grievous injuries or the exhaustion of their lifespan, during the protracted war.
The scale of victory began to irrevocably tilt towards the Demon Clan.
The defenses of the Alternate Space continuously shrank, as the myriad races wailed under the iron hoof of the Demon Clan.
Seeing this, the Dragon Emperor waved once more, pausing the scene.
He looked at Aster Grant, who was frowning deeply, and asked, "What are your questions at this point?"
Coming back from his shock, Aster Grant asked the major doubt in his heart:
"Your Majesty, from this development, the Alternate Space should have been completely devoured by the Demon Clan in Ancient Times."
"Why... why does it continue to this day?"
"Why did it seem that for a long period, the Demon Clan did not launch a large-scale invasion?"
This is the most illogical part!
According to the display, once the top battle power of the Alternate Space withered, it should have been impossible to stop the Demon God’s advance.
In the Dragon Emperor’s profound golden eyes, a trace of recollection flashed.
He didn’t answer directly but allowed the scene to continue flowing.
In the images, the defense lines of the Alternate Space completely collapsed as Demonic Qi blotted out the sky.
The only two remaining Pseudo-Gods - the Dragon Emperor and the Elf Queen - were covered in blood, facing multiple Demon Gods in their final striving efforts.
The complete defeat of the Alternate Space seemed imminent.
"At that time, the Elf Queen and I were the last hope."
"By normal standards, the fall of the Alternate Space was a foregone conclusion."
Here, his words paused slightly, and his gaze again fell upon Aster Grant.
Their gaze was so profound as if penetrating through time.
"However..."
There was endless emotion in the Dragon Emperor’s voice.
"At the darkest hour, a turning point appeared."
"A... ’variable’ that should never have belonged to that era, a true ’Savior,’ descended."
...
