You want me to take out a loan to practice cultivation? I'll just pay off the debt physically.

Chapter 146 This is no longer an ordinary member of our race; we must strike hard! (5k)

The unusual movement of the abyssal swarm, and the terrifying pillar of abyssal light, instantly caught your attention.

The counterattack from the projected will of the abyss was also within your expectations.

After all, every time you alter the future and rewrite the current situation, the abyssal projection of this invading world always makes corresponding changes accordingly.

Fortunately, the defenses of Crimson Heart City are formidable. With the Elder General and the three Demon-Sealing Battle Legions stationed there, coupled with the strength of millions of Crimson Heart soldiers, they should be able to hold out for a considerable period.

[Regarding the abyssal swarm of insects below the cliff, the Red Heart Society had already constructed a defensive line at a key point 800 kilometers away.]

This defensive line consumed far more resources and manpower than the Winter Defense Line built by the Winter Empire.

After all, when the Winter Empire initially built the Winter Defense Line, its primary purpose was simply to prevent an invasion by the Federation army.

[Under the onslaught of that boundless swarm of abyssal insects, only the extraordinary defensive line built by the Red Heart Society over several years with all its might could withstand it for a period of time.]

[After the abyssal pillar of light fell, an endless swarm of abyssal insects surged out from below the cliff, launching a full-scale attack on the defensive line established by the Crimson Heart Society under the command of the enormous abyssal insect queen.]

[In an instant, a terrifying, massive war erupted at the Red Heart Society's eastern defensive line.]

In this day and age, perhaps only the Red Heart Society can withstand this boundless swarm of abyssal insects.

[While the Abyssal Demonic Insects may generally be of low level, once their numbers break through the limitations and reach a terrifying scale of hundreds of millions, it would be enough to make even a ninth-level professional's scalp tingle.]

Fortunately, the Red Heart Society doesn't have many other shortcomings, but it has a large enough number of professionals.

With the support and protection of military equipment and magical arrays, ordinary militia groups can slaughter these abyssal worms once they arrive at the defensive line.

Thus, in this eastern battlefield shrouded in abyssal demonic energy, a war involving hundreds of millions of people broke out.

War promotes development!

The war has evolved powerfully!

[While the swarm of demonic insects put immense pressure on the eastern defense line, the extraordinary materials and divine crystals dropped by the dying insects were transformed into raw materials for extraordinary products and sent back to the Red Heart Society's super factory for processing and production.]

Today, the Red Heart Society is establishing new super factories every day, and its extraordinary production equipment is being upgraded daily.

Faced with massive demand and a shortage of materials, a steady stream of extraordinary resources was delivered to the front lines via large-scale teleportation arrays to serve as relief rations for the soldiers.

The Red Heart Society's fighting militia also grew rapidly at a terrifying pace during this war.

[In August of the 138th year of the Extraordinary Calendar, an abyssal uprising occurred within thirteen Red Heart Society nations, including the Farah Ideal Kingdom and the Universal Ideal Kingdom.]

Because their territory is small, it takes every few days for a high-ranking Abyss Lord to emerge.

With the Red Heart Society providing full support through the Red Heart Armor, Red Heart Enhancement Technique, Red Heart Refining Technique, Life-Burning Secret Technique, and Life-Exploding Secret Technique, they were able to barely withstand the Abyss invasion.

This time, however, a level 98 super abyss lord has also emerged from the territory of this small country.

The Lava Demons have been quite enthusiastic about dealing with these super abyss lords.

[After all, He had experienced the effects of the Lava Potion firsthand; the almost doubled effect made Him very eager for it.]

Initially, the Lava Demon looked down on the researchers in the Demon Research Department, and even felt displeased that these fanatical researchers were dissecting his body structure and deconstructing his inherited techniques.

After experiencing the fruits of the Demon Research Department's labor, He now displays a completely different attitude and demeanor.

The way He looked at the personnel in the Demon Research Department was even more fervent than that of his own father.

[After all, even his own father couldn't help him advance to level 99, but the Demon Research Department could!]

Therefore, when the Demon Research Department requested a batch of super abyss lords as research material, He was more eager than anyone else.

Because He understood that when the Demon Research Department made a new request, it meant that new findings were about to be published.

Therefore, upon learning that other ideal nations had dispatched super abyss lords, He naturally led two demon-sealing warbands to support the hunt.

[And so, other high-ranking members of the Loyal Heart Branch witnessed this scene.]

A colossal demon, leading two super-commands dedicated to sealing and suppressing demons, arrived in their land and dealt a heavy blow to their invading demon brethren.

[The super abyss lord invading Farah's ideal world is also a lava demon!]

Even among his own kind, He showed no mercy.

This is no longer just dealing with ordinary compatriots; we must take strong measures!

[He brought the Demon-Sealing Army here precisely for this purpose!]

【seal! 】

Suppress!

[Then take him back to the Demon Research Department and let the researchers study him thoroughly!]

[This is my own brother, a member of the same clan. The structure of their bodies, the various cultivation techniques and secret manuals they practice, and even the molten lava aura contained within their souls are almost identical.]

Such a harvest will undoubtedly greatly boost future production.

As for feelings of kinship?

The struggle for the abyss has always been like this!

As a direct descendant of the Red Heart Society, and as the demon chosen by its founders to inherit the Red Heart Society's legacy, how could He be swayed by such a trivial matter of kinship?

[His heart harbored a great and pure ideal.]

Of course, if you want the flames of loyalty to burn brightly in the abyss, you must first set a small goal: obtain the authority over the abyss!

[In peacetime, many people would surely be spouting nonsense like the Red Heart Society is allied with demons and corrupted by the Abyss.]

[But during times of war, especially when a nation is on the verge of extinction, they feel a sense of closeness to anyone who comes to their rescue, whether it be a demon or a vengeful ghost.]

In October of the 138th year of the Extraordinary Calendar, six enormous demon corpses were returned to the Demon Research Department.

Those who enjoy in-depth research were greatly surprised and delighted by the abundance of research materials.

[Especially after the Lava Demon used its soul-searching techniques to compile the secret methods related to the three demon races before its opponent's death, the entire Red Heart Society's research department was like a great white shark smelling blood.]

The knowledge system originating from the abyss will inevitably have a transformative impact on all aspects of the Red Heart Society, including its cultivation techniques, armor, and military equipment.

[Especially the Crimson Heart Enhancement Method, which inherently relies on the influence of Abyssal Demonic Energy, will undoubtedly reach a higher level with the help of the Abyssal cultivation system.]

[In November of the 138th year of the Extraordinary Calendar, a massive army of inferior demons appeared within the Red Heart Society's reconnaissance area in the southern region of the Abyss Battlefield.]

[Under the influence of the abyss's projected will, this army of inferior demons launched an attack on the Red Heart Society's southern defense line.]

At this moment, the super military weapon is poised to be deployed.

[This is the kind of demon army we're fighting—not too many, not too few.]

[In the same month, the Demon Research Department developed a new creation: the Demon Ascension Potion.]

This potion uses the bloodline essence of a high-level demon lord as its main ingredient, combined with a wisp of soul power from a super abyss lord, and one hundred and twenty-nine other extraordinary materials. With the aid of a purification array, it ultimately creates a miraculous potion capable of removing impurities from demon bloodlines.

Most importantly, the Demonic Ascension Elixir can also enhance the purity and resilience of the user's soul, greatly improving their level of comprehension.

However, because the main ingredient of the Demonic Ascension Potion is a high-level Abyss Lord, and also a wisp of soul power from a super Abyss Lord, the Demonic Ascension Potion cannot be widely distributed among the servant army in a short period of time. It can only be awarded to those who have made outstanding contributions.

Even so, it greatly boosted the morale of the auxiliary troops.

In order to gain merit and credit, the generals and officers under the auxiliary army constantly requested Deng Qi to lead them to fight in more difficult areas.

In the stable defensive environment of Redheart City, their merit point acquisition efficiency is still too low.

In December of the 138th year of the Extraordinary Calendar, after careful consideration, Deng Qi decided to grant the request of the vassal army.

[So he led his vassal army to the southern border of the Abyss battlefield to confront this army of lesser demons that had come from further south.]

In the eyes of the vassal army, the demon army was not an enemy, but rather a walking legacy of merit.

However, Deng Qi directly rejected their fervent hope for a war of resistance.

Why bother engaging in hand-to-hand combat when you can leverage the power of defensive lines and amplification arrays, and utilize the effects of military weaponry for a devastating attack?

Isn't this just brain-dead?

[The vassal army was so excited they lost their minds; he wouldn't do that.]

The opposing army of lesser demons was slightly taken aback when they saw the massive minions of the lava demon.

【what? 】

Aren't they fighting for the great will of the abyss?

[Why are we still fighting demons?]

On the other hand, how come there are demons fighting for humanity?

Did these humans offer some irresistible reason?

In March of the 139th year of the Extraordinary Calendar, the technologies related to super military weapons underwent improvements thanks to the intervention of information from the Abyss System.

Although the power of the super weapon has not been greatly increased, and in fact, its power has even decreased to accommodate the Abyss's modifications.

[After the Abyss system intervenes, the constraints that super military weapons face in the Abyss are almost completely eliminated.]

In other words, the super weaponry, which appears to have received no enhancements, has actually seen a significant increase in its combat capabilities within the abyss!

[In an instant, a large number of Abyss-version super military weapons were teleported to the northern and eastern battlefields to provide support.]

[Especially on the eastern battlefield, the number of abyssal demonic insects is increasing.]

[Especially the abyssal demonic insects that arrived later, they stepped over the piles of corpses of the abyssal demonic insects in front, attempting to force their way across the eastern defense line.]

When there are too many enemies, even if they drop extraordinary materials and equipment skill cards, they won't have time to collect them.

When this pinnacle of human technology, the super weapon, entered the battlefield, accompanied by dozens of explosions that altered the world's terrain, a large area of ​​the eastern defense line was quickly cleared.

Even the boundless tide of demonic insects was terrified by the power unleashed by the super military weapon. In an instant, the defensive pressure on the eastern line was greatly reduced.

In June of the 139th year of the Extraordinary Calendar, all the large demon caves in the United States erupted in rebellion, and two super abyss lords emerged from the abyss battlefield.

Even if Weiss brought back the basic warframe production materials, with the United States squeezing its national machinery to the limit and pushing production beyond its capacity, it could only enhance the survivability of some chapters.

[Even under the onslaught of the Super Abyss Lord, it still had no effect.]

The national situation is precarious.

Under these circumstances, Weiss led a delegation of two King-level talents and one hundred and twenty-five Gold-level talents to the Red Heart Society to request assistance.

You met with Weiss at the headquarters of the Red Heart Society.

[In response to Weiss's plea for help, you stated that the Red Heart Society had no problems.]

The crux of the problem lies with the aristocratic families of the United States.

[Weiss seems somewhat confused by your question.]

He came seeking help, and the Red Heart Society agreed to provide assistance. Given such a crisis, would the highest levels of the United States really oppose it?

But your next words silenced this genius with king-level talent.

The ultimate ideal of the Red Heart Society is that everyone should acquire extraordinary power, take control of their own destiny, and use their own hands to create a brighter and more beautiful future.

However, the United States' aristocratic families and nobles, united in their exploitation and oppression of the lower classes through financial means, surpassed even the Union's methods.

[Student loans for schooling require decades of an extraordinary person's income to repay.]

Even with their own children in college, they still haven't finished paying off a large portion of their loans.

That's a classic case of living off loans until you drop dead!

Under these circumstances, once the Red Heart Society's army enters, the Red Heart ideology will inevitably follow.

Are the leaders of the United States truly unconcerned about the spread of their patriotic ideology?

After saying this, you slowly stood up.

[Weiss, you haven't been active in politics, so you probably don't understand the thoughts of politicians.]

An invasion from the Abyss could jeopardize a nation.

However, the nation's imminent peril does not mean that aristocratic families should rush to their deaths.

What does the loss of territory have to do with aristocratic families?

As long as the assets remain, as long as the resources remain, and as long as the descendants with high-level talents remain, then it will have no impact on them.

[But if the ideals of loyalty were to spread widely, and the flame of loyalty to burn brightly in the United States, then truly the heads of those nobles would be at stake.]

After a moment, Weiss slowly raised his head.

I have always firmly believed that my country is a beacon of human civilization.

If aristocratic families disregard the basic survival needs of the lower classes for personal gain, then I believe they do not deserve the right to continue living!

At that time, I will personally take their heads!

If the glory of the Red Heart Society can truly shine within the United States, I think my comrades and I will be happy!

Upon hearing this, you gently patted Weiss on the shoulder.

In July of the 139th year of the Extraordinary Calendar, fifty eighth-rank professionals clad in Crimson Heart Armor, along with ten escort regiments and two million Crimson Heart soldiers, led by Weiss, set off towards the United States.

The lava demon shrank its body and quietly followed the guard.

[After all, the number of Super Abyss Lords is still relatively small at this stage, so He doesn't want to let any Super Abyss Lord go.]

The demonic tide that has erupted within the United States is utterly child's play for these loyal warriors who fight in the abyss.

After the Red Heart Army suppressed several large demonic strongholds, the Red Heart ideology quickly spread throughout the area.

【As expected, an accident happened. 】

The United States leadership expressed extreme dissatisfaction with the Red Heart Army's wanton dissemination of its ideals, and publicly protested, arguing that the Red Heart Society was eroding the great beacon with its own ideology.

[There are extremists within the United States military who have declared their intention to use special military weapons to strike the Red Heart Society, and subsequently sealed off all teleportation arrays.]

[The Red Heart Society did not tolerate any favoritism from the United States' high command in this regard.]

The Lava Demon appeared among the Red Heart Army and, in full view of everyone, performed a perfectly standard hand salute.

The slogan "May your loyalty be ever-victorious" echoed in the deep voice of the Lava Demon, spreading outwards.

He is showing everyone in the United States one thing: the inclusiveness of a sincere ideal far exceeds their imagination.

Even a demon, if he harbors a pure heart, will still be accepted by the Society of the Pure.

However, if anyone stands in the way of the Red Heart Society and attempts to persecute its members, they must first ask the Red Heart Society's fist if it will allow it.

Looking around, the Lava Demon, having used its powerful soul perception to survey the surroundings, also concluded that the geographical location of this oceanic continent was indeed superior.

[It's not that it's rich in resources, but rather that it's located in a remote area.]

The area connected to the Abyss Battlefield also appears to be a remote place.

What's the situation like at the Red Heart Society headquarters?

[A level 98 Super Abyss Lord has just appeared on the distant continent?]

Thinking this, the Lava Demon gave a benevolent smile to the high-ranking officials of the United States who were watching from a distance.

In August of the 139th year of the Extraordinary Calendar, the flag was changed on the distant continent, and the Red Heart Society completely took over this peaceful land.

In October of the 139th year of the Extraordinary Calendar, the Demon Research Department of the Red Heart Society developed a demon evolution potion using a large number of corpses and souls of inferior demons.

[If an ordinary lesser demon takes this potion, it will improve the defects in its body and soul, allowing it to rise from a lowly, wretched demon in the abyss to a normal demon.]

After learning about this, the Lava Demon thought the people in the Demon Research Department were just wasting their time.

[He has no lesser demons under his command, so why waste the computing power of his pure-hearted intelligence on researching this piece of junk?]

[He simply didn't dare to speak harshly to his benefactors, so he could only complain to Deng Qi.]

Deng Qi looked at the lava demon's pig-like head and felt speechless.

The abyss is teeming with inferior demons.

[Defective offspring of various demon races, or those that fail due to energy errors during the incubation process of their hatching nests, are almost all referred to as inferior demons.]

【Now! 】

[I have a Potion for Evolving Lesser Demons!]

Isn't this like having a living signboard?

[Once those lesser demons experience it, will we still have to worry about not having an army under our command?]

The Lava Demon's eyes lit up after hearing Deng Qi's words.

【yes! 】

Why didn't he think of that?

[The lesser demons may not have much else, but they're plentiful!]

[If performed well, the number of his auxiliary troops could be increased tenfold or even a hundredfold.]

Once the required quantity is met, the quality of the auxiliary troops can be gradually improved using other potions.

Just thinking about it made him feel that the future looked beautiful.

After considering this matter for tomorrow, He immediately allocated 500 million contribution points to each staff member of the Demon Research Department.

Anyway, He just did this contribution point incidentally, so it wouldn't be of any use to Him.

[He's now the big spender for the staff of the Demon Research Department, occasionally sending them a donation.]

[It could be said that the Demon Research Department was the wealthiest branch of the entire Red Heart Research Institute, wealthy in every sense of the word.]

[In the same month, the auxiliary army, led by Deng Qi, captured over ten thousand inferior demons.]

At first, these lesser demons attacked the army of servants with curses and swears in the purest demonic language.

You're such a saint!

May your whole family prosper in heaven!

But when they consumed the demon evolution potion and their entire bodies became different, their eyes instantly lit up.

They finally understood why these demons fought for humanity.

The projected will of the abyss is urging them to fight, promising rewards after they annihilate these humans and conquer this world.

Whether it's elevating one's bloodline, enhancing one's cultivation, or acquiring powerful skills, as long as victory is achieved, the will of the Abyss projection will grant it!

[But now, we can gain advantages ahead of time simply by shifting our positions, and we don't even have to fight to the death. Isn't that great?]

[And then, their attitude changed instantly.]

[Gentlemen, I misspoke earlier. Your whole family are beasts who deserve to go to hell!]

Deng Qi stood aside, listening to the flattering words within this Abyss discourse, his lips twitching slightly.
