For a moment, Roland wanted to joke with the demon by saying, “You are also a member of Tadarin? Forgive me. I didn’t recognize you.” However, he gave up on this idea eventually.
After all, he came here to interrogate the demon. He did not want to undermine his own authority. In the state of Mind Resonance, the demon could manage to understand and speak the human language, but when it came across a word without counterpart in its own language, it would paraphrase the word. Given that, it might misunderstand or misuse the most common words in the human language.
Instead of answering Roland’s questions, the demon rambled in agony.
“No, it doesn’t make sense! You’ve never entered into the Sky-sea Realm, and you’ll never be able to do so. How can you get a legacy shard? But if you don’t have one, how come you can defeat me? You are lying. I, Kabradhabi will never believe you!”
As the demon’s soul had been transferred into the God’s Punishment Warrior, it could hardly control its own emotions during this moment. Before the interrogation, Roland had decided to grab this opportunity to delude the demon into leaking information which it would never mention under normal circumstances. He continued to push the demon. “Do you need more hints? You failed to lure my army into your trap and had to confront us on the battlefield, but before your army got close to us, they suffered heavy casualties. You led your troops to join the fight, wanting to revert this situation. As soon as you landed, however, you got shot down by the God’s Punishment Witches. The fight between you and the witches lasted about ten seconds, and she’s the one who led the witches to defeat you. Try to read her memory and then you’ll see how vulnerable you appeared on the battleground.”
“You—” Suddenly, the Senior Demon looked depressed.
Zooey interrupted the demon by showing it what had happened during the battle. It took her just a moment since the Mind Resonance significantly accelerated the pace of information exchange.
“You can’t change the result of the battle by denying it, and your thought sounds ridiculous to me.” Roland sneered. “We’ve never been to the Sky-sea Realm, so we can’t own a legacy shard? I suggest we unify the concept first. If you don’t tell me what a legacy shard is, how can I answer your question? Maybe in our eyes, it isn’t a valuable thing at all.”
“Stupid bug, you must be joking.” Kabradhabi sounded very angry. “It’s the cause of the Battle of Divine Will and determines the fate of the species. You think it’s not precious!?”
Pasha suddenly thought of something. “Wait, does the shard look like a red crystal? Is it shaped like a spindle and able to bring anyone close to it into a spacious hall where he or she will see something incredible?”
“The relics of gods!” Tilly exclaimed in a deep voice.
“You call them the relics of gods? Sure enough, you are just low-grade crawlers,” the demon responded scornfully. “They’ve nothing to do with deities. Each species has a shard like that. They can upgrade themselves by swallowing it, and once they lose it, they will become food for the other species. Now, do you realize how stupid you are? When those underground cowards died out, you still hid in a corner on the ground. How could you get their legacy?”
Hearing this, Roland’s heart suddenly jumped. That’s why it was so sure that human beings couldn’t get a shard or a relic. The four picture scrolls represent four different civilizations. A civilization had to defeat another to obtain its legacy. During the first Battle of Divine Will, when the underground civilization was extinct, we were busy fighting against demons. It’s impossible for us to rob the underground civilization of its relic.
He looked around and found that everyone had a grave look on their face. Apparently, everybody realized that they had just heard important information.
