All-Professional Master of Darkness - Chapter 373
c373 betray
Following the witch doctors from a distance, Lan Wu followed them and pushed aside the layers of vines and bushes, and finally came to a place that he was very familiar with.
The entrance of the Trawinkel Temple.
The stone pillars that had stood for thousands of years were now tightly entangled by the wildly growing vines. The original magnificent temple was no longer there, and all that was left was green.
Lan Wu watched the witch doctors hurriedly pass through the stone pillars that had turned green, and his brows slightly frowned. The world has changed dramatically, and Mephisto has also broken free from the seal of the Zakarum Church and left here?
With deep confusion, Lan Wu raised his hand and pointed, signaling Lan Ya and the other four ghosts to go over and find out the situation. Watching the four ghosts float into the entrance of the temple, he took this time to think carefully.
Diablo and the other three demons are deliberately trying to merge the World Stone. However, Tyrael, Rasma and other legendary human heroes took advantage of the situation and destroyed the World Stone at the cost of Tyrael’s burning soul at the last moment, triggering a huge change in the world.
But it has been four years since the great changes in the world, and the situation of mankind has become worse and worse. If he had not had a sense of crisis and prepared the refuge of New Tristram in advance, I am afraid that mankind would have been completely extinct. Or become a slave raised by the devil, specializing in providing souls for the devil. This cannot but be said to be a great irony, as if Tyrael, Rasma and others had completely miscalculated, leading to the brink of extinction of mankind.
However, he vaguely realized the difficulties of legendary heroes such as Tyrael and Rasma.
For thousands of years, the devil has been slow to destroy the last human beings, which has caused the original sin innate in the hearts of humans to germinate. In the end, the population has recovered a lot, but there have been irreparable cracks between cities. The intrigues between humans have consumed a large number of living forces in vain. Otherwise, with the speed of human reproduction, it would not be difficult to restore to the grand occasion of the year in thousands of years.
Legendary heroes such as Tyrael and Lasma saw the original sin that humans are born with. So they joined forces to formulate this plan. Destroy the original system and then rebuild order on the ruins.
Humans are a contradiction of chaos and order. In peacetime, they intrigue against each other, but when faced with desperate situations, they will join hands to fight the enemy. Although the situation has deviated a little, it is insignificant in comparison.
The sharp decline in population has made the surviving humans realize the power of unity again. At the speed of human reproduction, in twenty years, humans will surely return to the level before the world changed. At that time, without the confinement of the World Stone, human potential will be fully stimulated. Even if it is not as good as Lasma, Bul-Kathos and other first-generation humans, it is not much different from the devil.
This is just Lan Wu’s guess. The real answer can only be obtained by finding Tyrael or Lasma. At present, one thing that can be confirmed is that Lasma has always been watching New Tristram and him in the dark. His inexplicable return to New Tristram from Harrogath and the arrival of Leah are the best examples.
If the speculation is basically true, then this great change in the world really brings endless vitality to mankind. Those rotten and spoiled things are completely eliminated from mankind. For example, this Zakarum Renaissance Society.
It is true that the Zakarum Renaissance Society has a strong foundation, and it is also true that it has terrifyingly strong strength and power. But in a thousand words, are you really not worried about being seen by others when you enter and exit the Travinkel Temple so freely?
The Travinkel Temple is Mephisto’s lair. It is also the place where he has lived for thousands of years. Compared with the cruel and desolate hell, this place is obviously more tempting. In addition to here, where else can Mephisto grab a piece of fertile territory?
Diablo will never allow it, Baal will not allow it, and even Andariel and Duriel and the other two demon kings who have not yet appeared will not allow it.
The world is so small.
Baal has the greatest power and strongly occupies the Arreat Plateau and the surrounding areas. Diablo has the strongest power and the deepest scheming. In the beginning, he spent a lot of effort to enable hell to invade the world in a large scale. Now that the Worldstone has been destroyed, there is only one last film between the world and hell. With victory in sight, how could it be willing to stay in the River of Fire as before?
Not to mention the other two demon kings. In hell, the winners are the losers. The lower ones are always coveting the position of the upper ones. Although Mephisto is a demon god, he is the easiest one to deal with in the eyes of the four demon kings. So how could he give up the rich territory of Kurast?
However, the Zakarum Revival Society freely enters and leaves the Travinkel Temple openly, and the reason can be guessed with a butt. This underground organization, which claims to restore the Zakarum Church, chose to betray mankind and surrender to Mephisto.
Now that I think about it, the Zakarum Revival Society may have surrendered to Mephisto long before the great changes in the world. Lan Wu remembers it very clearly. When destroying the throne, the strength shown by Mephisto was only slightly inferior to Diablo and Baal. And that should be Mephisto’s body. At that time, he was concerned about his own safety and the ambiguity of the situation, and did not notice this contradiction. Now seeing the people of the Zakarum Restoration Society freely entering and leaving the Travancore Temple, the truth is self-evident.
The Zakarum Restoration Society helped Mephisto get rid of the seal of that year a long time ago.
The reason why Mephisto still only relies on the arrival of his clone to inform this area is probably that he is deliberately concealing the truth. On the one hand, it is to paralyze humans, and on the other hand, it is deliberately hiding its incompetence to avoid attracting a full-scale siege from humans. After all, it is very timid, and it has become even more timid after being sealed by the Soul Stone once.
After thinking this through, Lan Wu’s mood improved a lot. The Zakarum Revival Society is indeed a rare and precious fighting force, but since it has already surrendered to the devil, there is nothing to say. At the beginning, it was able to kill all the rebels such as Ruhadi, and now there is no psychological barrier to uprooting this underground organization.
At this time, Lan Ya and the other four floated back. Lan Wu asked carefully. Sure enough, after the four entered the dungeon under the Trawinkel Temple, they dispersed to gather intelligence and soon saw the scene of humans and strange demons coexisting peacefully. In particular, Leah also saw that the witch doctors and several demons joined forces to dissect a living human. The human looked like a former fisherman from Kurast Harbor, with calluses all over his hands from the ropes.
Learning that the Zakarum Revival Society was already closely tied to the demons, Lan Wu’s face became even uglier, and he teleported to the entrance without saying a word.
Since he was already here, he might as well make a scene.
