Run Away, This Civilization Is Cheating!

"How can there be a Legendary Talent among the mere six thousand or so Chosen Ones of the human race?" A Matrix couldn't contain her anger. "This is simply not fair. Do we have any Legends? No! Not even until the very end!"

This anger seemed to suddenly ignite the emotions of all the Matrices.

"Exactly! How is this possible?"

"Golden Legendary Talent, and it just so happens to be the type that can restrain us!"

"I will never accept this as mere luck!"

"Our entire civilization never produced such a level of Talent until its final moments!"

"..."

Indeed, throughout their existence, the Blood Demon species had never witnessed a Golden Legendary Level ability.

In reality, it wasn't easy for such a thing to emerge.

It was a one in a million chance!

The number of Chosen Ones that appeared in a civilization was limited and would not grow endlessly; the Blood Demons' past civilization couldn't surpass fifty thousand until its very end.

At such numbers, the Golden Legend was indeed nothing more than a legend for them!

No wonder this group of Blood Demons was so furious.

How many Chosen Ones does Human Civilization have now?

Barely six or seven thousand, not even ten thousand!

This is like a gambler, who has bet everything and never won the SSR, turning around and seeing someone else win it with a single pull!

This could cause someone's mentality to explode in an instant!

Moreover, this was not some game played for amusement but a matter concerning the fate of entire civilizations!

If they had a Golden Legendary Talent from the beginning, maybe, just maybe, their civilization wouldn't have perished!

Forget that they are inherent enemies now, even if they weren't, such incomprehensible luck, with its intense and bitter envy, would be enough to make them want to tear this "Emperor Ou" civilization to shreds!

However, there were still those who kept their cool.

It was the same Matrix who first shared intelligence, also the one responsible for bringing these Matrices together.

It spoke again, "This is an established reality now. Resentment is pointless. The Civilization Trial has never promised fairness."

This Blood Demon Mother obviously had a certain prestige among the many Matrices.

After it spoke, all the Matrices gradually calmed down.

"Right now, we only have two options," it continued. "The first is to do whatever it takes to eliminate that Chosen One. The second is to flee this country."

As soon as these words fell, one Matrix after another quickly voiced their opinions.

"The first choice is simply impossible."

"Exactly, all of our children hiding in the army have been discovered."

"Without weapons, and with the number we have now, we are no match for the humans."

"The power of that Chosen One is extraordinary; he will be hard to deal with."

"Plus, a Matrix was captured alive, truly a sinner of our entire species!"

"..."

If a human were present at this time and heard such a group of hoarse, cold, and strange voices, they probably wouldn't be afraid because the words were filled with unmistakable deep fear.

At this moment, at least in this country, the Blood Demons were the ones who needed to fear.

The leading Matrix, looking at its own kind, also felt a sense of sadness in its heart.

"Enough!" it roared quietly.

Suddenly, everyone turned to look at it.

"Isn't this laughable?" it said with anger, looking at each of them, "We've already lost the name of our civilization, lost our own language, and even lost all of our culture, but we have certainly not lost our cowardice. Or rather, do you wish to be defeated once again?"

"..."

All the Blood Demon Mothers fell silent at that moment.

However, just as the leading Matrix thought it had made an impact, it heard one Mother voice out, "What does this have to do with cowardice? If we cannot win, we cannot win."

This statement seemed to express the sentiments of many Matrices, and the rest echoed the sentiment.

"Moreover, we're not planning to give up."

"Every Matrix is precious to our civilization and cannot be carelessly abandoned here."

"It's only this country, after all. Other countries are more suitable for us." Enjoy new adventures from empire

"Escape and find more humans to Parasite outside, then come back with human weapons and consume every person in this country!"

"..."

These Matrices seemed unwilling to admit their own timidity, but no one planned to stay.

If they were to run, the numerous Subspecies would not be easy to take along, but the Matrices alone wouldn't have any issue.

Each of them had individual Talents, mostly of Blue Level, and were very powerful. As individuals, the chances of escaping undetected were not low.

But the leading Blood Demon Mother, seeing such a scene, could only feel even deeper sorrow.

However, this was its species.

Its civilization was never one of fearless spirit. As long as there was a way out, it always kept retreating until it realized there was nowhere left to retreat to.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Falling in the first Trial was not without reason.

But this time, it didn't plan to retreat just yet.

"If you want to run, you can, but before escaping, cooperate with me," the Matrix controlling the Subspecies said, its grotesque mouth splitting in a sinister grin. "Since humans call us 'demons,' we should bring them fear. Since we're going to run anyway, we can do it at any time, so why not try cooperating with me first?"

The Matrices remained silent.

They really wanted to flee as quickly as possible.

With the current situation, no one knew when the formidable Chosen One might suddenly appear before them.

The fear of death was ingrained deep within the bones of the species.

"If you don't agree, I'll reveal all your locations," the Blood Demon Mother threatened, seemingly running out of patience. "I have Epic Talent! Even if I expose my position, I can escape. You can't threaten me!"

Instantly, the surrounding Matrices were filled with shock and anger.

Deep in the forest under the night sky, suppressed roars of rage echoed.

...

Meanwhile, Shen Hao was on a plane, looking at a document.

It wasn't about anything else, but rather about the "Civilization Trial."

In addition to the intelligence extracted from the captured Blood Demon Mother, there were summaries and analyses, including some opinions that Shen Hao wrote under his authority.

"The Civilization Trial, being a 'Trial' and bringing forth powers like the Chosen Ones, suggests that there must be hope of overcoming it. By holding onto this belief, no matter how powerful or despairing the Trial seems, it's essential to strive to find its weakness, just as with the Blood Demons. The more we understand, the less we fear..."
