The Good for Nothing Seventh Young Lady
Chapter 2718: Retreat of the Devil Race (3)

What was the Devil Race waiting for?

Whatever it was, it made people apprehensive.

Shen Yanxiao looked at Xiu and vaguely felt that what the Devil Race was waiting for was somehow connected to The Rising Sun City's defensive shield. She tentatively asked, "They are waiting for a way to break The Rising Sun City's defensive shield?"

Xiu nodded slightly.

“……”

There was the sound of gasping in the hall.

The only line of defense they had now was The Rising Sun City's defensive shield. If the Devil Race found a way to break it... Then...

They could hardly imagine what would happen.

"Can they break it?" Tang Nazhi swallowed his saliva. This time, he had witnessed how tough this defensive shield really was. Tens of millions of devil soldiers took turns to bombard it, yet it remained strong up to now, without any signs of breaking at all. Unfortunately, this defensive shield could only be used in the city. If such a tough defensive shield could have been reinforced over the Knights and soldiers, killing seven out of seven devil soldiers would be a piece of cake.

"This defensive shield is something created by the Devil Race themselves. At the beginning of the war between gods and devils, the gods spent a lot of energy in order to break in here. This kind of defensive shield embodies the Devil Race’s greatest effort, and wanting to break it is not so simple. Only by attacking it with the two extreme forces in this world can it be destroyed in a short period of time." Shen Siyu said.

"Two extreme forces?" Tang Nazhi was a little confused.

"The divine power of the gods and the devil energy of the devils." Xiu opened his mouth.

“……”

Everyone was shocked.

They thought...

This was absolutely impossible!

The gods and devils were always on opposite sides. Having them cooperate to attack the city was simply impossible.

Furthermore, right now, the three remaining superior gods of the God Race were all sitting in The Rising Sun City. How could they possibly destroy the defensive shield with Satan?

"Well... Are you sure that the remaining gods are just the few of you..." Tang Nazhi asked cautiously.

Shen Siyu nodded definitively.

"Only by having the blood of the gods can one exert true divine power. Even though you have inherited the godhood of the superior gods, you cannot reach the purest state." Only those with the blood of the God Race could do it.

In short, Qi Xia and others couldn’t. In The Rising Sun City, besides Xiu, the Dragon God, and Shen Siyu, only Shen Yanxiao could probably do it.

However, the god blood in Shen Yanxiao’s body was still in a deep sleep. So far, it hadn’t awakened, so she could not fully use her divine power.

Shen Siyu's words made everyone secretly relieved again.

Without the blood of the gods, even if Satan wanted to break through The Rising Sun City's defensive shield within a short period of time, it was basically impossible.

However, the silence of the devil army at present still made people feel uneasy.

What method would Satan use against The Rising Sun City’s defensive shield?

Unable to find the final answer, they could only temporarily put down this question and concentrate on the things at hand.

No matter what the Devil Race’s plan was, this period of ceasefire was a rare opportunity for the alliance army to rest.

For seven days, the devil army didn't show any intention to attack. The alliance army in the city was finally able to get enough rest to supplement all the physical and mental strength that had been over exhausted before. The soldiers, who could only have a short rest before, were finally able to sleep soundly and fully in these few days, replenishing all the physical strength they had lost before.

Behind this seeming peacefulness, what kind of plan was hidden?

Was it the time blessed by heaven, or the calm before the storm?
