Hyperdimensional game! The ultimate aesthetics of violent wizards

No, I shouldn’t say I haven’t received a single message.

As a result, she received dozens of messages today, informing her that all the books she borrowed were overdue.

After arriving at the library, I met Rhine, who had never appeared before.

You have to know that the secret library is the base camp of the demons. The demons have arranged a large number of guards at the entrance of the library. No one can enter except her, so it is almost impossible for outsiders to come here.

If there was, it meant that Rhine had been in the library from beginning to end, so she speculated that Rhine was most likely the administrator of this library.

"You could think so."

Although Rhine is not a librarian, Laplace is. And he can command Laplace, so he is the librarian, right?

"Mr. Administrator, I'm very sorry that I'm overdue."

"Can you please forgive me this time since this is my first offense? I promise I will return the books on time next time."

"Please don't revoke my access to the museum, because I really like it here."

Hongyu did not explain why she was overdue, nor did she make excuses for her mistake. Instead, she promised not to make the same mistake again next time.

"Go to the C919 online conference room first. Someone wants to see you."

"Someone wants to see me?" Hongyu asked curiously.

"Go quickly, don't keep them waiting."

"Mr. Administrator, do you know who wants to see me?"

"An old acquaintance of yours."

"Old acquaintance?" Hongyu became even more curious.

But no matter how she asked, the administrator did not answer her.

On the other side, Alisha seemed to show a hint of hostility after seeing Hongyu in the picture, but she soon smiled again and hugged Rhine's arm affectionately with both hands.

Although Rhine was a little puzzled by Alisha's sudden behavior of acting coquettishly towards him, he still took her into his arms.

After Hongyu knocked on the door of the C919 conference room, the sound of someone coming in came out.

With caution, Hongyu pushed open the door of the conference room. This was a room she had never set foot in before.

After entering the room, the first thing you see is a rectangular conference table placed in the center of the room, with the scene on the Rhine projected in the center of the table.

"Excuse me, are you looking for me?"

Hongyu looked at the two people in the projection. She was sure that she had never seen either the man or the beautiful woman in the man's arms.

What about what the administrator told her about an acquaintance looking for her?

"Long time no see, Ruby."

"You are..." Although Hongyu's brain was working frantically, she really had no impression of the man in front of her.

"It's so sad. It's been less than a month and you've already forgotten about your date."

"Date? Excuse me, have I ever dated you?"

"Haven't you remembered yet? The Seven Shields Alliance, the Demon King."

"Ah, I remember now! You are the fake Demon King?!"

"I was just about to have someone tell you that the situation with the demon clan has changed drastically recently. Now is not a good time to meet."

"But how did you become like this... When we first met, you were still..." Hongyu could not connect the child who was only three or four years old a month ago with the handsome man in front of her.

"Still a little one, right?"

"Although I am not the reincarnation of the Demon King, I am also a reincarnation, so there is no need to measure me by age."

"You finally admit that you are not the reincarnation of the Demon King?"

"Because I no longer need the reincarnation of the Demon King as a cover. I am the Demon King."

Rhine was not talking nonsense, because the Landia continent where he lived was, in a sense, the "Demon Continent". The inhabitants of this continent were all "artificial demons" created by the high elves.

For him who is going to unify the continent of Landia in the future, isn't he the Demon King?

Moreover, in terms of combat power, as a peak Legendary, he already has combat power comparable to that of a mid-level Divine Realm, not to mention that he has now opened his second Eternal Artifact, "Tide". I dare not say that he is at the peak of the Divine Realm when he is fully activated, but he is already invincible below the peak of the Divine Realm.

In terms of status, he is the lord of the "Demon" continent, and in terms of strength, he is comparable to the peak of the divine realm. Doesn't this make him unworthy of being called the Demon King?

"You're bragging again. Can't you say something practical? Tell me, what do you want from me?" Because Rhine had a criminal record, Hongyu didn't believe what Rhine said.

"Indeed, no matter how much you say, nothing can be more convincing than actual actions." Rhine stopped explaining his identity. With his current strength, he could suppress the entire demon clan by himself.

"Laplace, can the Geocentric Special Train from Geocentric City to Penicia Station be restored?" If it could be restored, then he wouldn't have to ask Hongyu for help and could go there by himself.

"The problem is not with the trains, the trains have always been running."

"So what's the problem?"

"The problem is that the entrance valve of Penicia Station was closed, and it needed to be opened manually from the other end of the door. The door of the Academic City was also closed, and it was only after I opened it manually that traffic to the City of the Center of the Earth was restored."

"If I remember correctly, the entrance to Penicia Station is in the Lava Secret Realm, right?"

"Yes, inside the great volcano Mikaheto."

After noticing this, Rhine said to Hongyu:

"Can you do me a favor?"

"Tell me what favor you need first." Hongyu had only met Lai Yin once through video, and the two were not particularly familiar with each other.

"Find an opportunity to enter the secret realm of lava, then go into the interior of the Mikahto volcano, find the valve of a door, and then open it."

“Stop, stop, stop! You may not know that the Lava Secret Realm belongs to the Southern Royal Family. It is their base camp. How could they allow outsiders to enter?”

"Even if I went in under the pretext of investigating volcanic fertilizer for agricultural use, I couldn't get into the interior of Mikahto because it's the sacred place of the Southern Royal Family. What's more, I'm from the Eastern Royal Family."

"Even if I get in, they will definitely send someone to watch me all the time. How can I have the chance to open a valve?"

"Especially recently, the various tribes have been arguing over the position of the demon leader, so it is even more impossible for a competitor like me to enter their holy land."

"Commander-in-chief of the demon clan? Why are you suddenly trying to unify us? Are you preparing for war?"

"you do not know?"

"What?" He had only been away for half a month, so nothing serious would happen, right?

"The secret realm of the lawless land has undergone a huge change, burying nearly one-third of the masters of the continent, and causing a heavy blow to human forces. Of course, the demons will not miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."

"Are you going to counterattack humans?"

"Yes. This is the general trend of the entire demon clan and the will of the people. The demon clan's counterattack is inevitable. I can't stop it. What I can do is to use my own prestige to compete for the position of commander-in-chief and keep the war under control."

"Sister, listen to your brother and don't get involved in this mess. Humans are not as fragile as you think."

Chapter 310: War! War! One general's success is the result of the sacrifice of thousands of soldiers

"No, I know. But I also know that after a thousand years of recuperation, especially after the food problem was solved in the past hundred years, the demon population has expanded to a number that the outside world cannot imagine. With such a huge base, the probability of the birth of a demon king has also increased significantly."

"Currently, there are 72 demon kings who have entered the Demon King Council. This is because to enter the Demon King Council, one must not only have the combat power of a top demon king, but also have the support of a powerful tribe."

"But in fact, there are still many demon kings from small tribes or independent demon kings without power among the demons. The combined power of these people should not be underestimated."

"The most important thing is that no one knows how many demon kings the four royal families have secretly cultivated. Take the Eastern Royal Family, where I am, for example. There are four demon king-level generals in public. Their combat power is at the top demon king level, so they are honored as the Four Heavenly Kings."

"But this is only the apparent power of the royal family. We have also trained another eight demon kings in secret. If you count me, there are 8 demon kings in the Eastern Royal Family alone."

"And it's not just the royal family. With sufficient food, some of the largest tribes second only to the royal family have also given birth to their second and third demon kings one after another."

"In the past, the demons were unable to maintain a large army because of a shortage of food. Not only could they not stockpile troops, but they had to send troops to attack the border every once in a while to control the population. Otherwise, the barren land of the Demon God Territory would not be able to feed so many demons."

"But it's different now. After hundreds of years of agricultural reforms and food breeding, the demons no longer need to worry about food. In short, although humans are powerful, the power accumulated by the demons in the past hundred years should not be underestimated. I don't know whether I saved the demons or harmed them by solving their food crisis."

The Ruby Demon King's face was full of confusion. Her original intention was simply to solve the demon clan's food crisis and change the fate of humans as two-legged sheep. She never thought that this would become the strongest backing for the demon clan to launch a war.

"This is none of your business. You don't need to feel too burdened."

"Really...really..." With Rhine's comfort, the troubled expression on Hongyu's face eased a lot.

"A knife can be used to kill people, but it can also be used to save people. Whether it's good or bad depends entirely on the user. If every time a knife kills someone, the blame is placed on the blacksmith, then wouldn't all the blacksmiths in the world commit suicide on the spot?" Rhine comforted.

In fact, Hongyu's situation is a bit similar to that of Einstein, who did not expect that his mass-energy equation would later evolve into a nuclear bomb, a weapon that can destroy humanity. But humans only say that nuclear weapons are bad, but no one has ever said that Einstein should not have discovered the mass-energy equation.

"But now that you put it, the demons do have the capital to start a war. There are 72 demon kings in the Demon Council, 210 civilian demon kings, 60 royal families, 50 large tribes, and leaving out those with overlapping identities, the number of demon kings in the demon tribe is estimated to be around 300. Add to that the huge number of grassroots demons and sufficient food supplies, no wonder the demons feel they can do it this time." Rhine analyzed.

人类对魔族魔王的数量预估是在150位，按照1位魔王可以媲美人类3个传奇的战力计算，150位魔王差不多就需要500位传奇来应对。

The total number of legendaries on the human side was about 600 to 700, which was enough to deal with the demons. Moreover, this did not include the legendaries of the Silver Moon Elves, the Sea Clan, the Demi-Humans, the Dwarves, and other alien races.

Every time the demons attacked, they were swift in the early stages but weak in the later stages. In addition to the biggest problem of the battle line being too large, the addition of alien races was also the key to reversing the situation.

Because everyone knows the principle of "lips and teeth are cold", it is not good for them if humans lose. Although the alien races have always been oppressed by humans, at least they can survive when humans are around, but when the demons come, they will be killed.

There are at least thousands of legends in the entire continent, which is more than enough to deal with the demons. This is why Rhine is not worried that the human side will lose.

Even now, the demons only have the capital to start a war.

The 300-plus demons correspond to the thousands of legends on the mainland.

The huge grassroots demon tribe corresponds to the coalition forces of the continent's countries;

In the past, the demons' logistics were zero, and they would surely lose if the battle dragged on for too long. But now they have a constant supply of supplies, and the human advantage is gone, so it's hard to say who will win. But the demons overlooked the biggest problem.

"I have to say, this is indeed an opportunity for the demons, but you have overlooked the biggest problem."

"What?"

Hongyu didn't expect that Rhine would seriously discuss the war with her. She was just complaining.

"The grassroots and core strength of the demons are no less than that of humans, and even the logistical shortcomings have been made up. The only thing missing is the top-level combat power, which is also the most important."

Rhine, who had experienced the power of the church firsthand, was certain that the demons could be destroyed by the church alone.

The demons don't have a God Realm, but the church does. Although it was a temporary promotion, it is also a genuine God Realm. In addition, the whole body is armed to the teeth with divine weapons. It is a real dog owner. Basically, it is invincible below the peak of the God Realm. Even the current Rhine dare not say that he can beat the church.

The church never took action before because it was not the right time for them to take action. Ultimately, the invasion of the demons was in the interests of the church. Although there was an irreconcilable feud between them (the Demon King killed the demigod of the church), the church would still make appropriate compromises when it came to benefits.

Don't think this is magical, because the original intention of the church when it was established was not to be a charity organization, but an organization to collect faith and manage believers for the gods. They do charity only to collect more faith and attract more believers.

Ask:

Is it easier to recruit believers when the world is peaceful or when the world is in chaos?

Let’s put it this way, the church is like a troublemaker on Earth; wherever there is war, there is the church.

If the demons were destroyed by the church right after they attacked, the world would only praise the greatness of the church. But if the demons were about to conquer the continent and the church came out and destroyed the demons, then the world would regard the church as the savior.

However, in order not to leave too much psychological trauma on the demons, the church did not take action directly, but supported a hero and paired him with a saint. Finally, in the final battle, the power of the divine realm was temporarily blessed on the hero, giving him the power equal to that of the demon god. With the artifact given by the church, the hero finally won. Then the hero was useless.

The better ones will change their appearance and live in seclusion in the city, while the worse ones will be directly abandoned by everyone.

Therefore, the church has its reasons for not taking action. Once they realize that the demons' counterattack is beyond their control, they can intervene at any time.

The church can use the demons' counterattack not only to consolidate its own position, but also to attract a large number of believers. The more faith it collects, the stronger the church will be, thus forming a virtuous circle.

Not only the church, but also many world hegemons and empires also need to fight against the demons. The former can not only absorb a lot of fresh blood during the war, but also obtain a lot of materials. After each war, the world hegemons are not only not seriously damaged, but become stronger. The latter needs to use war to divert various domestic conflicts. When the war is over, the opponents will disappear.

You are good, I am good, everyone is good, only the lower class people are not good. This is why it is said that the war with the demons has always been a game for the upper class of humans.

After all, for the upper echelons of humanity, they have never regarded the lower-class people as the same race as themselves.

The emperor of the Far West Empire never thought of resisting the demons, because he knew that resistance would be useless, so he tried to make as much money as possible. Moreover, the demon attack was not a bad thing for him, because the current empire would not last long even without the demons.

Although both countries were destroyed, it was completely different if it was destroyed by himself or by the demons! Most importantly, after the destruction of his country, he could still apply for asylum from the Continental Allied Forces (United Nations). The reason why he plundered so much money was to honor some of the top human leaders so that he could continue to be the emperor after the war.

Then he would make a national speech, write a self-criticism, and say that he had learned from the pain after the fall of his country and decided to change his ways. He hoped to work together with everyone to overcome the difficulties, and finally rebuild the country with the help of other countries. Then he would become the emperor who restored the country and his name would be passed down through the ages. Who would care what he did in the past?

Everyone thinks that the current emperor is incompetent, hopeless, unable to distinguish right from wrong... etc., but in fact, he has already arranged a way out for himself.

As long as the demons don't retaliate, he can continue to be the emperor.

Now that the demons have counterattacked, he can begin his eternal cause.

Therefore, no one knew that this emperor was the one who most hoped that the demons would counterattack. Since the current empire was beyond repair, it could only be destroyed and a new empire could be created.

The emperor told no one about this crazy plan, not even Her Royal Highness the Grand Princess.

The demons long for war, and humans (the upper echelons) also long for a world-engulfing war to reshuffle and divide forces.
