Chapter 50: Heize, the Great Demon, the Demon Among Demons

~9 min read 1,751 words

Following Liu Chengchao's words, the members of the expert group all looked excited and perked up to search for this kind of stone wall.

Security personnel stood around to prevent any accidents from happening.

The lights shone, and the entire cave wall became as bright as day.

"Look quickly, there is Wolf Tribe writing on Luo Hua Rock!" a member of the expert group discovered another stone wall.

Immediately, someone took photos to record it.

Two experts in the field of Wolf Tribe language research stepped forward to act as translators.

"The meaning of the words on this is..."

This expert repeated it once.

"Great Demon Heize, damn him!

I curse him to go to hell and never find peace."

An expert translated the words on the stone wall.

Many people present revealed smiles.

"It seems it really was Heize who led an army to kill them; otherwise, they wouldn't have held such a grudge," one staff member remarked.

In the live stream room, the barrage of comments also kept increasing.

"These Wolf Guards are truly losers!"

"Only villains with no strength can only curse Heize!"

"Hurry up and find the stone walls; I want to see more news about Heize."

Everyone felt excited inside.

They were about to uncover history and witness history.

Many people had become fanatical fans of Heize, while many others watched coldly with a sense of superiority.

"Now, there is a ninety percent certainty that it was Heize who ultimately wiped out this Wolf Guard, the strongest in the world.

Now, the only thing I want to know is how Heize did it; I hope to get the answer from the following stone walls."

Liu Chengchao said slowly.

He recalled the records and images on the Life and Death Shrine.

Those were the praises of the town's survivors for Heize, and exaggeration was inevitable.

But the information left behind by the defeated, such as the Wolf Guards, was more reliable in terms of authenticity.

Of course, given human nature, one would exaggerate the opponent to shirk responsibility.

But even with exaggeration, it wouldn't be too outrageous.

At most, it would be like having an army of three thousand and falsely reporting it as one hundred thousand.

"Alright, let's continue searching," other experts said, all quite excited.

The group walked further inside and discovered many more skeletons.

Clearly, the former owners of these skeletons had all been used as food.

"There are many stone walls here!"

An expert mentioned excitedly.

Immediately, someone went to take photos for records, and a researcher studying the Wolf Tribe performed the translation.

"Human flesh is the true delicacy of the world."

"I am sick of eating it; this disgusting feeling is nauseating!"

"Wolf God, please forgive me; I should not have eaten the Giant Wolf!"

"It might be raining today; I wonder if my daughter misses me."

The information on the stone walls here was chaotic and disorganized, without much useful information.

"This should be this Wolf Tribe member recording their own mood."

Liu Chengchao expressed his opinion.

The researcher continued to translate.

This section of the stone wall mostly recorded the lives and conditions of the survivors and did not contain much effective information.

Suddenly, Liu Chengchao paused and pointed at a stone wall: "Translate this passage again."

"I, Su'er Zhen, do not believe there are really ghosts in this world!

Heize is already dead, so what am I afraid of?" the expert repeated it again.

"Su'er Zhen?" Liu Chengchao was slightly stunned, a look of joy appearing on his face, "If I remember correctly, he should be the deputy Commander of this Wolf Guard."

Now, there was one more piece of evidence proving that this Wolf Guard was indeed that original Wolf Guard.

For them, this was a good discovery.

Women are more emotional; Wang Jiao spoke up at this time: "Old Liu, what does it mean when it mentions ghosts and that Heize is already dead?"

Liu Chengchao was slightly stunned.

Indeed, according to the literal meaning of Su'er Zhen's words, it seemed he had seen a ghost spirit that Heize had transformed into.

This was, of course, extremely unreasonable.

"This should be a type of trauma, or perhaps because Su'er Zhen lived here alone for so many years, his mental state might have developed problems.

It was Heize who trapped him here; he was incomparably terrified of Heize, creating nightmares, which led to suspicion and paranoia, producing the illusion that Heize was still alive."

Liu Chengchao made a reasonable speculation.

"Is that so?" Wang Jiao paused.

Other experts echoed: "Old Liu is right; living in a place like this for ten years, anyone's mental state would become somewhat abnormal."

None of these people took these words to heart.

They continued to advance, searching for new stone walls and other useful information.

The stone cave was very deep and appeared to have been excavated for many years.

Soon, the group stopped in their tracks again.

Ahead, there were quite a few stone walls.

On the ground, a pile of miscellaneous items lay scattered.

The experts took a few looks and, based on their experience, speculated that these items were the weapons of the Wolf Guard.

"Go quickly and record and translate what the Wolf Tribe characters on them mean."

Liu Chengchao instructed.

Every stone wall and every passage of text above was extremely precious.

After all, anything in history that could survive for so long had very precious significance.

"I have lost, the Grand Commander is dead, only a few of us Wolf Guard remain; I am a sinner of the Wolf Tribe."

The members of the expert group were translating.

Liu Chengchao and the others were shaken with caution.

Finally, were they reaching the main point?

Now, according to the content on the stone walls, it seemed as if it were writing the history of that time.

"It is all my fault; if I hadn't suggested taking this passage, we wouldn't have encountered these mishaps, nor would we have encountered that great demon, Heize!"

"Tarsha comforted me, saying that even if we hadn't taken this passage, we still would have encountered Heize, and Heize would still have unleashed a slaughter."

"Heize is a great demon, a demon among demons!

How could such a fiend exist in this world!"

Others hearing these words could feel the despair in this person's language.

"Heize is truly too formidable; he has beaten these Wolf Guard into fear," Wang Jiao commented from the side.

"Indeed, I am becoming increasingly curious about how exactly Heize managed to not only Slay the Wolf Guard but also destroy their spirit."

At this moment, Liu Chengchao raised an eyebrow: "Did you notice that this Wolf Tribe member said that even if they hadn't taken this path, they still would have encountered Heize?"

"What about that?"

"Logically speaking, if Heize had relied on favorable timing and terrain, then this Wolf Guard unit would certainly not have encountered these things if they hadn't traveled through the Dahuang Mountain Range.

However, according to the meaning in his words, even if they had gone elsewhere, they still would have encountered Heize's ambush, and the Wolf Guard still would have been no match; this is intriguing."

Liu Chengchao was deep in thought.

Others, hearing Liu Chengchao's words, were also lost in thought.

According to their previous speculations, a major reason Heize was able to defeat the Wolf Guard was by occupying favorable timing and terrain, and utilizing natural disasters to annihilate the Wolf Guard.

After all, the Wolf Guard was the most powerful army in the world at that time, and had always been known as the "Wolf Guard, ten thousand unbroken; once ten thousand are broken, they are invincible."

However, according to the written records above, it seemed somewhat different.

"Could it be that the army led by Heize could defeat the Wolf Guard through sheer strength?" one staff member voiced their doubt.

The others were all somewhat shocked.

These people were all very clear about the strength of the Wolf Guard.

There were many military fans and history enthusiasts, and among the rankings of the ten strongest ancient armies, the Wolf Guard was sure to be on the list.

It was mainly because the Wolf Guard's combat record was too fierce; they had always won against superior numbers and had even fought their way into other continents.

"What is the name of this army, anyway? Why is there no record of it in history books?

Could it really be, as rumors from the outside say, that Heize and the Fengxing Emperor were rivals in love?

After all, the Fengxing Emperor and Heize were considered fellow disciples, and the possibility of a rift between them due to love is still quite high."

"That is a bit of nonsense.

Such a strong army must have been famous at the time.

Even if Heize had offended the Fengxing Emperor, the Fengxing Emperor would not have gone so far as to completely delete the records of that army and Heize.

At worst, he would have just smeared their reputation."

"If the army led by Heize was stronger than the Wolf Guard, it would certainly be ranked among the top ten strongest armies in history!"

"Sigh, these ancients were too long-winded; couldn't they just write directly how they were defeated?

Just like the records in history books, so we wouldn't have to guess," one staff member complained, feeling impatient.

The others laughed.

"If you were in his position, would you still have the leisure to record so much?

I reckon they were just trying to survive, then later realized there was no way out and were just waiting to die," others laughed.

The originally serious scene now had a touch of a cheerful atmosphere.

At this moment, Liu Chengchao was frowning, recalling many things in his mind.

So many people had mentioned Heize's army.

Yet, to this day, not a single corpse of the Daxia Clan had been seen.

A terrifying thought could not help but arise in his heart, and he instantly suppressed it.

That kind of thought was too exaggerated; it was simply impossible.

Even if there were many signs indicating that was the case, he could not mention it.

Otherwise, he would no longer be a true expert and would be called a pseudo-scientist.

Liu Chengchao still knew which things should be said and which should not.

And at this moment, the livestream room was quite lively.
