269. I'll go save the world and be right back_1

```

Lu Ban finally understood why the Demonic Tide was called such.

It was truly like a tidal wave of the ocean, in which humanity was but a speck in the vast sea, and even he felt it was a miracle that the people of Night Country had managed to survive the onslaught for a thousand years.

If it were on Earth, it is estimated that within three months, the whole land would be riddled with scars, and even if humanity went mad and used all their nuclear warheads in a scorched-earth strategy, willing to perish with the Demonic Beasts, it would likely only slow down the Demonic Tide by a fraction.

This was true Pollution.

He did not hesitate.

First of all, his mission was to survive until the end of the Demonic Tide. The heart of the Winter Wolf could be set aside for now. To accomplish this task, he could only pray that the fortress would hold for three days.

But now it seemed that it would be a miracle for Black Keep to hold even for a day.
