380: Blue Star Calls for Help
Amani sighed, trying to calm the waves in his heart. He knew that as gods, they bore a more important mission and could not be swayed solely by emotion. But for Lucy, and for the angels who had perished, he always felt guilt and unease.
"I understand, it's just..." The Gentle God hesitated, not knowing how to express his inner struggle and pain.
"Amani, we must make difficult choices for the peace and tranquility of the entire world. Trust me, Lucy will also understand our predicament," another god comforted him.
The Gentle God nodded silently, but his heart remained heavy, and he could only bury it within himself, waiting for an opportunity to compensate later.
The Angel God's wrath attracted the attention of many gods.
"What exactly does the God King want to do? He actually forbids us from attacking!"
"The God King's decisions are always hard to fathom; we just need to obey. After all, that is the Wisdom God King, the brain of the God Realm." Despite his heart being full of doubts, this god still chose to trust the God King's judgment.
"Lucy is too pitiful. She could only watch her race be slaughtered, and all of this was caused by the God King sending them to their deaths."
Other gods also expressed their views, some dissatisfied, some confused, some sympathetic. However, facing the God King's authority, they ultimately chose silence.
Because they knew that the God King's wisdom and strategy often exceeded the understanding of ordinary people.
.........
"I'm back!"
Along with this voice, an evil laugh abruptly rang out, echoing throughout the heavens and earth, as if coming from the deepest part of hell, making one's hair stand on end.
And at this moment, in front of the Demons' army, a short, black-robed figure slowly emerged. He exuded a powerful aura that caused the surrounding space to slightly distort.
The short, black-robed figure wore a ferocious mask on his face, revealing only a pair of eyes gleaming with cold light. He held a black magic staff in his hand, inlaid with a huge red gem that shimmered with an eerie glow.
Demon King Vega!
No, perhaps, now he should be called a Demon God.
However, in just ten thousand years, Vega, who had just been promoted to Demon King, successfully advanced to the Demon God level. What exactly happened during this time, no one knew.
"How nostalgic! Ten thousand years ago, I was promoted to Demon King on this very land, and now, I have become a Demon God here again, hahahaha, excellent!" Vega laughed with immense excitement.
"What a pity, still a step too slow. Promoting to Demon God took some time, and this place has already been ransacked by those Small Demonss. You fools, how could you destroy this place so severely?" As the Evil Energy spread, the Demons surrounding Vega painfully knelt on the ground.
"Lord Demon God, these Star Realm creatures are too fragile."
"Lord Demon God, it's not our fault!"
"Lord Demon God, there are still remnants, there are still remnants!"
Although they were extremely dissatisfied with Vega's neurotic behavior, they dared not show the slightest complaint.
"Oh? Remnants? I wonder if that fellow who dared to refuse me back then is still alive. To dare refuse me, he has quite the guts! Then let this Demon King find you properly."
The Evil Energy on Vega's body began to circulate wildly, frantically searching for Yang Hongyu's aura.
"You're here, hahahaha, alive, and living very well, actually promoted to King rank. As expected of someone I favor."
"Minions, let's go."
The mighty Demon God army, due to the Demon God's capriciousness, deviated from their main objective and headed to the Heavenly Fortress where Blue Star was stationed.
Opposite the Demon God army, within the flickering holy light, the angels breathed a sigh of relief. They didn't know why the Demon God army left, but they were finally out of danger.
How could Yang Hongyu know that Vega held such a grudge? Was refusing his recruitment considered forming an enmity?
Even if it was an enmity, it shouldn't be remembered for ten thousand years. What kind of extreme petty person was he?
The Demon God army moved at an astonishing speed, arriving at the Heavenly Fortress where Blue Star was located in just a few days.
This area was originally one of the forbidden zones; the laws here were extremely chaotic, completely unsuitable for normal life, and even Demons found it difficult to endure such a harsh environment.
Yang Hongyu had foresight; he had built a magnificent pass here as a precaution, considering it humanity's last line of defense.
As long as this pass remained and the Star Gate connecting the two realms was not destroyed, humanity could rise again and continue to develop the Star Realm's resources.
Due to the anti-flight restrictions in this area, attacks could only be launched from the front, making it extremely difficult to assault.
The Demons were too lazy to gnaw on this tough bone; it was uninteresting. It was better to gnaw on the angel-guarded areas that were easier to attack and yielded higher returns.
However, unexpectedly, due to the Demon God's whim, the Demon army came here in full force, determined to conquer this Heavenly Fortress.
"What's going on?"
In Blue Star's external warship command room, Yang Hongyu hadn't expected that the Heavenly Fortress would also attract the attention of a Demon army.
"Calling me?"
What Yang Hongyu hadn't expected was that this army was actually coming for him, inquiring about his whereabouts as soon as they arrived.
They declared that if he wasn't handed over within ten days, they would destroy the Heavenly Fortress.
Yang Hongyu opened the image, and the endless Demon army shocked him.
But what chilled him to the bone was the figure at the very front.
"A Demon God? There's actually a Demon God? No, I must notify the Overlord quickly."
Yang Hongyu knew there was no time to lose; it would take some time for Lin Ye to arrive.
.........
"What? A Demon God? And it's that fellow who had just been promoted to Demon King back then?"
Lin Ye was very surprised.
He hadn't expected that the Demon who had just been promoted to Demon King back then would be so powerful, advancing to Demon God in just ten thousand years.
Was he a genius?
"I must go there quickly."
Lin Ye didn't fear Vega. How powerful could a newly promoted Demon God be?
"You said this Demon became a Demon God in ten thousand years? Impressive, seems he has some talent." Hu was intrigued.
"Such a talented Demon would make an excellent servant, Lin Ye, take him in. He's a potential stock." Hu said.
Lin Ye was also interested in Vega and nodded in agreement.
He wanted to see how Vega cultivated.
However, after becoming an Overlord, the Star Gate could no longer bear their divine bodies. To go to the Star Realm, they could only pass through the Reception Land.
Or use methods like power projections, where only a small amount of power was split off, which the Star Gate could bear.
Lin Ye intended to act personally, so he naturally needed to go through the Reception Land.
Through divine sense, communicating with the universe, a portal opened before Lin Ye.
This portal led to the Reception Land.
