"Speaker, if I said that the capital has turned black, would you believe me?"
As he spoke, the inspector in charge of monitoring the security of the capital displayed a portion of the magical map of the capital on the big screen.
"..."
The faces of everyone in the conference room froze instantly as they looked at the dark area of the capital city on the map.
What the hell? !
The capital city has become a no-man's land!?
“Check if the magic map has been compromised,” Shao Zheng said.
"Speaker, why don't you go outside and take a look?" The inspector's voice was somewhat stiff.
Shao Zheng frowned slightly, got up and left the meeting room, and the others also got up and followed him out.
"..."
Even the forbidden spellcasters were stunned by the black clouds that had almost enveloped the entire capital, and the thick deathly and dark aura emanating from them.
“The Demon God…this is the Demon God that appeared in the ancient capital before.” Han Ji’s voice trembled slightly.
Didn't they say that the descent of a demon god requires the cries of millions?!
What the hell is going on?!
Pang Lai stiffly took out the phone and contacted Lü Cheng, "What do you want to do?"
"Get ready," came Lu Cheng's casual voice.
"I know, the capital is a vital place of the country, so there must be many forbidden spells there. A mere Abyss of Fiends isn't much of a threat to you. And with all those Earth Cores, I can't even enter this Abyss of Fiends, but..."
"What if we add a Dark King to the mix?"
"..."
"Shao Zheng, I think there must be some misunderstanding in this matter!"
The previously tough military forbidden spell mage instantly changed his tune.
"Yes, yes, yes! There must be some misunderstanding!"
"Perhaps this is a treacherous scheme by the Black Vatican!"
"Yes! Release them! Release them immediately!"
"We must not wrong innocent people!"
Dark Lord!
grass! !
Anyone with a modicum of knowledge should know what level of existence the Dark King is!
The capital can withstand the Sha Yuan, but that only applies to the Sha Yuan without the ancient king!
But now, the Dark King has appeared!
What the hell are you blocking?!

……
Inside the emergency meeting room.
Upon seeing the thick, dark clouds in the sky, the Magic Association and the military instantly reached a consensus.
Misunderstand!
This is all a misunderstanding!
"Misunderstanding? It's not a misunderstanding, is it?"
Lu Cheng led the Liu sisters away from Sha Yuan and into the conference room.
"Actually, let me tell you a secret: I am the Black Vatican."
"Not only that, I am also the White-Robed Pope of the Black Vatican!"
"Sarang is my little brother!"
Everyone was speechless, but they could only force a smile.
Sha Yuan can hold on and get through this, but if he just holds on, his life will be over!
All polite words must be based on the premise of survival!
Dignity? Only the living have the right to talk about dignity!
Now, even if Lu Cheng is only suspected of being from the Black Vatican, or even if what this kid says is true, that he is the White-Robed Pope of the Black Vatican, they still have to pretend they know nothing!
“Lu Cheng, I hope you understand that nothing we have done is directed at you,” Shao Zheng said.
"It is an indisputable fact that you have close ties with Salang of the Black Vatican, and Tang Yue's actions in Bo City were indeed derelict in her duties."
“I know, and then what?” Lü Cheng leaned back in his chair.
"kill me?"
Shao Zheng's eye twitched. "What I mean is, I hope you can calm down first. This matter can be discussed. You don't need to use such an aggressive approach."
"Even if it's true, as you think, that someone within our Magic Association is targeting you, your current actions—if you actually take action against the capital—would be tantamount to confirming the suspicion against you."
"Even if you can indeed summon the Dark King, it will take time. Moreover, with the capital's defenses, even if the Dark King were to descend, you would not be able to annihilate us all. Please believe me, human mages are more resilient than you think."
"If even one person who knows the truth survives, tomorrow you will be the enemy of the whole world."
“I know you don’t care, even if you’re at odds with the world, you don’t care. But I want to remind you, who are you doing this for? You may not care, but what about your family, your friends, what about them?”
"Moreover, once the war starts, I believe you know very well that the first to die will not be those of us in high positions of power, but those children who know nothing and are still asleep."
"To put it bluntly, many people here are capable of escaping. I know that many have already made preparations to flee the capital, or are in the process of doing so."
As he spoke, Shao Zheng glanced at everyone in the conference room.
Calm, composed, without the slightest flaw.
They're all fucking Oscar winners!
"I'm not threatening you, I just hope you think clearly about what you're doing now, and what you're trying to gain," Shao Zheng said.
"Things that can be discussed at the table should be resolved at the table, don't you think?"
"What if I insist on going crazy?" Lü Cheng laughed.
Shao Zheng remained unmoved. "I'll play along."
The Dark Lord is indeed powerful, but this is the real world. Using power across dimensions will cause the Dark Lord to be repelled by the dimension. The more power he uses, the stronger the repulsion will be.
If the Dark Lord could use his power in the real world without restraint, their world would have been destroyed long ago.
Moreover, if Lü Cheng really intended to go crazy, he would have just taken action directly; there was no need for him to come down here and waste time talking.
He has people he cares about, his friends, and that's why he came here.
He wasn't sure if the capital would be destroyed if they made their move today. After all, humanity had never truly fought the Dark King before and didn't know what kind of strength he possessed. But Lü Cheng would lose everything he had as a human being.
If Lü Cheng is truly such a madman, then there's nothing more he can say.
"..."
"His tough attitude is making me feel really awkward," Lu Cheng said, looking at Pang Lai.
He never intended to take action; after all, he wasn't some idiot obsessed with killing. Violence was just a means, not an end.
Most importantly, Tang Yue wouldn't want him to do that.
If he really orders the undead to start a war, he will gain nothing but make a mess of this damn world.
Only an idiot would want to become king of ruins; he has no interest in being the king of a bunch of ants.
However, the Abyss of Evil has opened, and the Darkness Descends. If he were to be persuaded to leave by Shao Zheng's few words, wouldn't he lose face?
"Ahem, please understand, he has a special status," Pang Lai whispered.
Shao Zheng is the president of the National Magic Association and the head of all magicians in the country. He represents not just himself, but the entire nation. Anyone else can back down, but he alone cannot!
If the person in this position bows his head, the backbone of this country will break!
"Understand?" Lü Cheng raised an eyebrow.
"I understand you, but do you understand me?"
"What do you think I'm doing here so late at night instead of sleeping?"
"To kill? To massacre an entire city? Do I look like that kind of idiot?"
"I also want peace and quiet, I just want to live a happy life, but you guys have taken advantage of my wife, what am I if I don't say a word?"
"You care about saving face, but I don't?"
