I am a reincarnation player.

"No, that person has no presence at all."

It seems that he disdains side quests.

Yuki nodded, feeling that Mebius was a good match for him. He had observation skills that were not inferior to Hiyori's, and he also had ruthless methods that Hiyori did not have.

Borrowing a knife to kill? This whole drama is just to kill a few players?

Thinking of this, he suddenly had an idea: "Are you returning to the City of God now?"

"Just stepped through the gate." Mobius had just entered the city, and before Yuuki could ask, his snake eyes had shrank slightly.

This city in the clouds is still magnificent and sacred, with countless temples standing everywhere, but precisely because of this, several ruins are eye-catching.

When a god falls, the temple collapses.

"I know what you want to ask. In this round of trials, not only players but even gods have fallen."

"How many are there in total?"

"Five."

It was as if they had crossed a critical point. Although there had been resistance before, the fall of a god had never happened, and even the City of God became nervous.

I knew it.

This time, not only Yuki and Qianjie fought each other, but problems also occurred in other trials. This was a coincidence, but it was also the inevitable change from quantitative change to qualitative change.

The demons will not surrender, the conflict will further escalate, and as more and more gods fall, the powder keg will be ignited sooner or later.

No wonder the demon hunters retreated in a hurry?

"Oh, it's quite spectacular."

"what happened?"

"Another temple has collapsed." Mebius admired the collapse of a huge temple, which looked a bit like the collapse of building blocks. The magnificent exterior walls and the high dome collapsed in an instant.

Frightened gasps sounded from both sides. The demon hunters, who had just suffered a crushing defeat, were at a loss as to what to do. Then they saw a large group of silver-armored guards pouring out of the city, flying and roaring.

"By order of His Majesty, the Divine City is sealed off. No one is allowed to leave!"

The seventh and eighth temples collapsed with roars, and the sacred city in the clouds was like the end of the world. Even many gods ran out and looked around in confusion.

"It seems I have witnessed a historic moment." Mebius watched the chaos and saw the vortex behind him turning, closing the gap like closing a city gate, even the chaos props were disturbed.

"As soon as you kill someone, the demons counterattack. Was this a plan?"

"I've never come into contact with the demons, let alone any cooperation. No, I should say that as long as the situation of the enemy being strong and we being weak hasn't changed, we can't take action."

Yuki, who was completely unaware of the situation, frowned. Fortunately, with Mobius as his insider, he became aware of the abnormality in the City of God and gradually came to his senses.

Is this going to be an all-out war?

It's impossible. The demons have no leader at all. They are like a pile of loose sand, organized into tribes. The snow demon will definitely not participate.

This organizational structure has an advantage, that is, every grievance has its perpetrator and every debt has its culprit. If any tribe kills a god, the demon hunting army will encircle and suppress it. It is not enough to push the entire demon clan to the opposite side.

It's too slow. How many gods would have to die if Isaac's neutral factions were to be killed? Besides, gods are not stupid. They will definitely be more vigilant when going out for trials in the future.

Unless the gods feel a real threat.

The communication was completely cut off, and Yuki fell into deep thought. This was too much of a coincidence. Could it be that I was a jinx, and I killed a god, and the demons followed immediately?

That's not right. There are more than a hundred gods. From a strategic point of view, it would be too hasty to start a rebellion.

He brought it into the perspective of the demons. If he were to do it himself, he would occasionally kill a couple of gods through the trials, keeping a low profile but constantly consuming them. By the time the gods could no longer bear it, the gap in strength would have narrowed a lot.

If we start a rebellion at this moment, the scene of the temples collapsing one after another is indeed very exciting, but even if ten of them die, it will not cause any damage to the foundation and will also lead to revenge. Most demon tribes will even sell out their own kind in order to protect themselves.

Want to cut off the demons' retreat and force them onto the chariot?

That's not enough. It will only deepen the conflict. Such an unwise move may even lead to hatred.

As he thought, Yuuki's gaze gradually transcended the gods and demons, as if he was standing in the sky, overlooking the entire chessboard. When his gaze focused on the chess piece "Sky Island Yuuki", his expression changed drastically.

Why did the God of Strife take action personally?

A player? Then why didn't he go and capture the fox demon? Qianjie was definitely a bigger threat, after all.

"It's the Sea Demon. That's why he's targeting the Mountain Crystal. Is he afraid that this most complete demon clan will collude with the Snow Demon?"

"No, even if they collude, the Snow Demon doesn't have the strength to resist. At most, I can act as a middleman, and I still have to return to the Fox Demon. If it were me, I would let them collude and then catch them all in one fell swoop."

Yuki couldn't figure it out no matter how hard he tried, but through this association, he found a fuse that instantly ignited the conflict.

Sea monsters. If it is proven that sea monsters can leave the abyss freely, it means that there is also a problem with the dragon clan guarding them.

Yuki participated in the trial in order to investigate clues in the deep sea, and ended up back to square one.

The sea demons, the dragons, and the demon tribes roaming around everywhere are definitely enough to threaten each other. The Protoss who are watching have no choice but to make a full effort to completely wipe out all the demons, because this is enough to subvert the existing order.

On the other hand, the demons who were watching were helpless. With the knife at their necks, would they be waiting to die if they didn't resist?

The conflict was bound to break out, but why now? Was Morgause a fool?

This is an inexplicable problem. If the demons and dragons were to unite, they should quietly accumulate military strength and not even touch a single god.

But this is no longer important. If the demons want to start a war, they will seek their own death. Now there is a fuse that can be ignited to cut off the retreat routes of both sides.

Yuki looked towards the southeast, where he had first arrived.

Abyss Castle.

Chapter 11: Mowing the Grass Without a Peer

Something must have gone wrong, something I hadn't thought of.

The air whistled and hit his face. Yuki frowned, feeling that this copy was weird everywhere.

The gods are subverting the order they created. Even if it can be explained, the means are too brutal. The normal procedure should be to eliminate Morgas and others first, and then slowly deal with the remaining trash.

Even if the demons could explain their desire for an all-out war, enduring so many grievances seemed too hasty and foolish.

The only explanation is the epic qualitative change in Yuki. The demons mistakenly believed that the sea demon had been captured, their plan was exposed, and they started the rebellion ahead of time.

But this doesn't make sense. The traces of the sea demon were forged by Yuki using the "God of War Plunder". Don't the demons themselves know whether they have united with the Snow Clan?

Besides, the God of Discord has taken action personally, so why not continue to follow this clue and instead recall all the demon hunters?

There was an obvious logical conflict. Yuki, who was rushing southeast, suddenly stopped and the confusion on his face turned into shock.

Something really happened.

It was clearly afternoon, but the sky in the distance was as dark as ink, completely covering hundreds of square kilometers, and an extremely foul smell was in the air.

Is this the abyss? Is this the sea monster?

He couldn't see anything, but Yuki knew that was the direction of the Abyss Castle. Instead of being impatient, he calmed down and quickly scanned the surroundings.

There was no trace of the demon hunters, so the entire army withdrew.

This is the strangest thing. The God of Discord's action proves that Yuki's deception was successful. It is obvious that if the dragons rebel and the sea demons escape, the first place they will attack is Abyss Castle.

Shouldn't those nearly 10,000 demon hunters be deployed to defend the area, less than a few hundred kilometers away? Shouldn't they be ambushed and captured in one fell swoop? Unless—

"He wants to use the destruction of Abyssal Castle to provoke a war, so that both sides will fight to the death?"

It's possible, just like there's a stupid saying in the world that goes 'For the greater good, a small number of people must be sacrificed', but what does He want?

Abyss Castle is the most powerful city-state of mankind. If we really want to suppress demons, it can be of great use. Why would we cut off one of our own arms before the war even begins?

It would be fine if they knew nothing, but the six main gods obviously knew.

I can't figure it out, I really can't figure it out. I just feel that the gods don't seem to regard the annihilation of the demons as their top priority.

Yuki didn't delay any longer and flew forward with his spear in hand. Pegasus's speed was not fast, and he became more and more agitated the closer he got to the Abyss Castle.

This is a pitch-black flower that wraps around the Abyss Castle. You can't see inside, and you can't hear any sound. The world is separated.

As he got closer, he discovered that this was some kind of one-way barrier that would obscure everything that happened inside.

"Could it be that you really don't know what happened in the northern mountains?"

If we knew, it would be like trying to cover one's ears and stealing the bell. It would be better to surround the fortress on three sides and leave one side open, so that we can capture the fortress faster. This is like catching a turtle in a jar, and we can only fight to the death in the Abyss Castle.

But from a realistic perspective, the demons do not want the battle situation in the Abyss Castle to be leaked. Are they afraid of reinforcements?

What a coincidence! All the demon hunters were withdrawn at this time, the gates of the City of God were closed, and I couldn't even contact Mebius.

For some reason, Yuki showed a hint of sarcasm, rode his horse and held a gun, charging straight into the barrier.

All he could see was foul-smelling black smoke, which made Tenma snort nervously. Yuki widened his eyes, and after a few seconds, his vision suddenly became clear.

It was a chaotic scene of destruction. The sea had turned pitch black, lava was swirling in the streets, columns of smoke shot straight into the sky, and the majestic city walls were full of gaps.

Countless meteors flew over the wall and exploded in the city with a loud bang. Exquisite houses collapsed one after another, and people covered in flames ran away screaming. All kinds of strange sea monsters rolled out from the "meteors", waving their dense tentacles and killing anyone they saw.

This is an indiscriminate attack, it's a massacre.

Whatever the reason, regardless of whether it was stupid or not, Yuuki saw at a glance what the demons were trying to do.

They just want to start a war and arouse the outrage of both humans and gods. The best way to do that is of course to destroy a city-state.

"Fortunately, the city hasn't been broken yet."

Yuki reminded them repeatedly that the Abyss Castle had already been put on high alert. A fierce battle was taking place on the wide city walls. Several pitch-black dragons sprayed out high-energy beams of light, and anyone who touched them was instantly reduced to ashes.

No, are the dragons also stupid? Are they going crazy?

Yuki was shocked this time. The dragon clan had the most options. Could it be that they couldn't see that they would be defeated if they started a war in a hurry?

What would be the point of capturing the Abyss Castle? The Gods' vitality is intact, and hundreds of gods and tens of thousands of demon hunters are suppressing everything. If they really massacre the city, then the fight will continue until death.

Roar--

Several huge black shadows pounced on him, and Yuki didn't have time to think. He urged his horse to gallop towards the city wall. Before he could even see clearly the sea demons blocking his way, they were turned into minced meat on the spot.

With a level 9 physique, a 20% passive strength bonus, and the use of immortal crystal armor and enhanced magic, Yuuki Shin becomes a fierce general on the battlefield, riding on Pegasus and having no rivals.

kill!

Yuki held a gun in his left hand and a knife in his right hand, picked up the sea monster and cut off its head. His ferocity attracted more sieges, and the enemies kept coming, but he became more and more fierce.

"Don't you know that I'm best at fighting one against many?"

Epic transformation. Soul extraction.

This skill is best used in life-or-death battles. Small fry below the monster level are all energy, while elites above the monster level—

Swish.

The long sword cut off the head, and the headless corpse was pulled down by gravity, while the black energy surrounding it turned into strips of light and concentrated towards Yuki.

Epic qualitative change. Void transformation.

He transformed the breath of the abyss into soul energy, spread out his right hand, and the energy began to materialize again.

Void Alchemy.

A hundred-meter-long spear appeared in the sky. Yuki crushed a shrimp head, threw the spear, pierced through hundreds of sea monsters, raised his right arm, and punched the end of the spear.

Concept reinforcement and penetration.

Concept reinforcement. Extreme speed.

A blue electric arc covered the giant spear, and then it was knocked out by the force that could destroy mountains and break seas.

Breaking the military!

boom--

The exploding air ring turned the surrounding sea monsters into minced meat. A stream of light swept across the sky, tearing apart everything in its path, and flew over the damaged city wall directly into the sea.

At this time, a tortoise shell emerged from the water like an island. The Spear of Pojun hit it, sinking the "island" and creating waves hundreds of meters high. A group of figures appeared in the sunken sea surface, one of whom was handsome with black hair like a waterfall.

"Is this the stranger from Abyss Castle?" Morgas tilted his head, a little confused, as if it was different from what he knew.

Of course he knew Yuki, and he had let Moresa meet him before, but he didn't expect that this person was so powerful.

It rushed in from outside the abyss barrier, but was not even matched with any enemy. It glanced at the 'coral man' next to it and seemed to be hesitant to speak.

"It's him. That armor was blessed by the God of the Sea. It can't be fake." The humanoid monster behind him answered. It looked ugly, and its skin was as bumpy as coral.

This is Shadow, the great demon of the sea clan. His eight red eyes are full of rage, but he is controlling himself with his remaining rationality.

The sea devils hid in the abyss to ensure their strength, but the price was that they were eroded by the abyss for many years. Sanity has become a very precious thing. Fortunately, for the sake of destruction, this bloodthirsty frenzy is extremely effective.
