The Lord Demon King is Unfathomable!

Chapter 285: Lord Demon King, It Looks Like There's Still an Egg Left in This Refrigerator! (Part 3)



It's a pity, the guy who completed the dragon slaying, although remarkable, was ultimately just an ordinary person.

Faced with the choice between being burned to death as a martyr by the believers and becoming their master, he ultimately chose the latter—using more lies to cover lies, spiraling from one downward spiral into another.

"...He held Gu Tafu's bones high, weeping over Gu Tafu's departure, and then compiled the final page of the epic for Him—at the last moment, He instructed him to hand over His bones to the most devout believer, as the Priest of the Holy Armor Dragon Kingdom. Then the priest crowned him, ruling the earthly realm in the name of the god."

"...The clever Lizardmen might have guessed the truth, but since Gu Tafu was dead they no longer needed to be sacrificed as offerings repeatedly, they cleverly stood by the King and the Priest, becoming the Nobles united around the Par Family. As for those not-so-smart Lizardmen, they didn't need to know because it wasn't important at all."

"As for the temple outside..." Luo Yan looked up and thought for a moment before saying, "its original purpose was probably not for worshiping the Dragon God, but to bury this landing pod."

The conflict a thousand years ago must have had some unexpected occurrence.

For example, because Gu Tafu's life sign signals could not be detected, the anti-gravity return device on the landing pod activated... Given Gu Tafu's cautious nature as exhibited in the log, this kind of contingency plan was very likely.

To seal this landing pod, Gu Tafu's Chosen One—the first King of the Holy Armor Dragon Kingdom, temporarily suppressed it with Subspace similar to the Great Barrier and built a giant Pyramid over the landing pod in the name of "building a tomb for the Dragon God" just in case.

However, perhaps being too obsessed with appearances, the descendants of the Par Family gradually forgot the original intention of building this Pyramid and also forgot the implication of breaking the seal on the Dragon God Temple. Lifted to the sky by the anti-gravity device, the Dragon God Temple not only failed to save the Holy Armor Dragon Kingdom from calamity but instead brought down "divine retribution" on Assam City.

This is also the downside of lies.

Lying is like making someone take poison, over time, inevitably, one would also be contaminated.

Maybe the second and third generation Kings still remembered what things were really about, but by the fourth and fifth generations, influenced by mural nurtures from childhood, they undoubtedly believed the lies they were telling.

And the Lizardmen of the Holy Armor Dragon Kingdom also had to start bearing the cost of "covering lies with lies"—sacrifices in the name of the Dragon God began again.

To stabilize the Great Barrier, they had to irrigate it with blood from their hearts, ultimately turning this Pyramid into its current blood-soaked appearance and bringing great disaster upon their former allies.

The archeological study on Dragon God Gu Tafu can be concluded here.

Luo Yan recovered the Dragon God's body into the storage ring.

For an Undead Mage, this was a formidable material that should not be wasted.

The immense Power of Faith condensed on these millennia-unchanging bones had long made it an existence akin to a Holy Relic. The Armored Dragon Clan only took one bone from him, still too polite.

However, this also benefited him.

Luo Yan searched around in this laboratory-like room again, regrettably not finding anything more useful, and those potentially useful instruments, because there were no manuals, he didn't know how to activate them.

To be honest, he didn't have high hopes for being able to put these instruments to use.

After a thousand years, the fact that this landing pod could still be opened was already a miracle.

Just as Luo Yan was planning to leave temporarily and hand over the investigation to the "professionals" of the Great Graveyard, a shout of surprise suddenly came from the adjacent cabin.

"Lord Demon King, it seems there is still an egg left in this refrigerator!"
