Chapter 65: Chapter 65: Blood Demon’s Struggle! (Added chapter, please follow for updates!)
If the video isn’t fabricated, then this feat could only be accomplished by a Blood Demon or a Parasite Failure!
That’s why this video could spread so wildly in just a few minutes!
The rate of spreading even far surpassed the one from the video where the Blood Demon crisis broke out!
Although Shen Hao hadn’t enabled the comment stream, he could imagine that the number of viewers was skyrocketing.
Indeed, it was the first time that a Blood Demon had appeared before the public through ‘active conversation’!
The screen continued its broadcast.
The demonstration of its blood control ability seemed only to confirm its identity. Without retracting the blood, the Blood Demon Mother continued speaking in this posture:
“As you are aware, we are neither human nor are we unintelligent beasts, but rather another intelligent species. The name ‘Blood Demon’ isn’t our species’ original name, but until we re-establish our civilization, we will accept this name in respect for the original inhabitants of this world. Additionally, you may address me as ‘Shadow King,’ which is my official title among our species!”
The hoarse voice of the Blood Demon was not as cold as machinery, but rather full of clear and rich emotions. He sounded like he was not some monster with a human appearance, but truly a leader of the opposing force.
This gave people an indescribable sense of eeriness.
But the Blood Demon’s speech didn’t pause:
“A few days ago, your leaders declared war on us, and today this video can serve as a response. Although war is not our intention, the war between our two species is indeed inevitable. This is not about morality, right, or wrong, but purely about the survival and reconstruction of our civilization!”
This statement caused an instant uproar on the internet.
If Shen Hao were to open the comment stream now, he would see a flurry of messages so dense they could nearly crash the server.
Angry, excited, and even some attempting dialogue.
Regardless, in this war, one side’s declaration had now received an official response from the other!
This fact alone continuously amplified the significance of this video.
Even within this short period, the video had been translated and was beginning to spread to the entire world.
However, this self-proclaimed ‘Shadow King’ Blood Demon Mother released the video obviously not just to provide a response. For the Blood Demons, and for humanity, there was not much need for it.
Their parasitic actions were already unforgivable acts of war to humans.
Thus, the Shadow King swiftly moved on to the main point:
“But I must admit that compared to our kin elsewhere in the world, we in the Eastern Country have suffered completely unexpected setbacks, and all this because of the presence of one individual—Chosen One Shen Hao.
Having such a Chosen One, your country is indeed extremely lucky. His strength even surpasses our comprehension, and even I, as one of the strongest among my species, am not confident of surviving against him.
This is the fundamental reason I have issued this communication in this form, because I am profoundly aware that if this continues, we will suffer immense losses before him!”
As these words were spoken, everyone could feel the Blood Demon Mother’s seriousness.
Even concealed behind a mask, one could almost sense the gravity in its expression.
Shen Hao couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow as he watched.
And on the internet, the viewers burst into chaos once again.
Yet, compared to the initial disorder, there was a moment of unanimity now.
The majority felt an indescribable sense of relief.
“Good to know!”
“Since you know, better surrender quickly.”
“You’re out of luck coming to our territory!”
“Shen Hao is the world’s strongest Chosen One!”
“Are you contemplating surrender? Impossible; you’re doomed!”
“That’s right, we won’t accept surrender!”
“So many have already died; it can only be blood for blood!”
“…”
It must be said that happiness is realized through comparison. The internet has been dominated by messages mostly concerning Blood Demons and war, with the bulk of messages not coming from within the country, but from abroad.
After all, domestically, aside from Donghua City’s battle drawing comprehensive attention, other battles were localized and on a smaller scale.
Internationally, the tumult was increasing drastically.
Particularly after the battle in Donghua City, some of the Blood Demons’ actions had become exceedingly frantic.
Some experts analyzed that it was Shen Hao’s presence, together with the successful live capture and control of the Blood Demon Mother, that had placed considerable pressure on the entire Blood Demon species, prompting those overseas to become more aggressive, trying to grow stronger before Shen Hao could interfere.
In comparison, although there was a significant sacrifice domestically with many casualties, the situation had improved countless times over.
And now this sense of “happiness” drawn from comparison was directly ignited by the leader of the “Eastern Country Blood Demon”!
Even the Blood Demon Leader had acknowledged Shen Hao’s strength and admitted their disadvantage.
Could the country’s complete victory be far off?
Some even had the illusion that this sudden, strange, and dangerous war might soon end!
However, at this point, Shen Hao’s heart was somewhat furrowed.
He didn’t believe the Blood Demon Mother would come forward to flatter him for no reason.
Moreover, within the seemingly flattering speech, there were some intriguing implications.
It was as if the current situation in the Eastern Country was entirely his doing.
Shen Hao knew that although he was powerful, he was far from being able to solve everything by himself.
If he were to go abroad now, facing Blood Demons armed with heavy weapons, he would still be in a difficult position.
He couldn’t hunt Blood Demons as recklessly as in the Eastern Country.
After all, behind his recent victories was the strong support of the entire national system!
The video hadn’t ended yet, and Shen Hao held back his speculations and thoughts to continue watching.
“I understand that whether a dialogue in times of war can stand depends on the cards each holds. If Mister Shen Hao is watching this video, I hope you comprehend three fundamental realities. First, we are a highly united species, and with my Epic Talent, I have already received the recognition and obedience of all Mothers within the Eastern Country. Second, there are already over five hundred thousand Blood Demons within the Eastern Country! Third—”
The Blood Demon Mother got to this point, then lifted a third finger and emphasized dramatically:
“We are an intelligent species. We may not be your match, but we will not sit idly by. We will definitely struggle with all our might and at any cost!”
