Chapter 154 The Ultimate Military Weapon Unveiled (5k)

Others may not know the mark between your eyebrows, but the Lava Demon race is a powerful clan even in the Abyss.

Therefore, He still knows these things.

Among the various demon races in the abyss, the descendants of the Supreme Lords receive greater care and resources from their races due to their innate bloodline and the successful experience of their ancestors.

The Supreme Lord, who wields authority over the Abyss, will also place soul restrictions on his descendants.

[If anyone kills one of their own descendants, they will be marked by methods imbued with the authority of the abyss, unleashing an extremely powerful soul counterattack.]

The method used by the respective ethnic group is similar to a kill order.

[The enemy has killed the pride of our clan, a potential future supreme lord. If any creature of our clan sees this, they must notify our clan immediately.]

[After all, this is the Abyss, and there is intense competition and war among the demon races.]

The number of Supreme Lords within a race is generally proportional to the race's strength.

Therefore, the potential for becoming a Supreme Lord is extremely important.

He was of ordinary birth among the lava demon race. Although he was fortunate enough to receive instruction from a wise man, he received almost no assistance from his race during his early development due to the death of both his parents.

[And this kind of Abyss Lord is the norm within the Abyss.]

[He truly hadn't expected that the lords killed by the Crimson Heart Legion this time were actually a group of potential Supreme Lords.]

How could this not shock the devil?

You stand to the side, watching the lava demon stand there dumbfounded, and raise your left eyebrow.

"If you don't want these, then I'll have the Demon Research Institute grind them into basic potions and distribute them to the auxiliary army."

The lava demon shuddered upon hearing this.

【want! 】

[Absolutely necessary!]

So what if he's a potential Supreme Lord?

[As long as He becomes the Supreme Lord under the tutelage of the Red Heart Society, all of this will be a minor problem!]

[But listening to the Lava Demon's words, you keenly sensed that the twelve Supreme Seedlings, including the Deer Demon, were probably another trap set by the Abyss's projected will.]

Whether you kill the Deer Demon or the Deer Demon kills you, it doesn't matter to the projected will of the Abyss.

[In the former case, you will be marked and hunted by the Deer Demon's pack.]

[For the latter, all is well.]

But from the moment you formed the Red Heart Society to resist the invasion of the Abyss, today's events were already destined.

[You can't expect people to simply not resist when someone else comes to wipe out the Red Heart Society, can you?]

[In February of the 149th year of the Extraordinary Calendar, the Red Heart Society's Military Research and Development Department achieved new results, inspired by the Orca Kingdom.]

[An ultimate military weapon, even more terrifying than super military weapons, better suited for combat in the abyss, and even able to ignore various negative weather effects such as ocean currents, appears before you.]

[A staff member from the military equipment R&D department tells you that the ultimate military equipment is extremely expensive to manufacture, and the time spent on production and installation is also a huge undertaking.]

But in your opinion, these aren't even problems.

The high cost is not a problem with ultimate military weapons, but rather a problem with the users.

[After all, their own poverty only serves to highlight the exorbitant cost of ultimate military equipment.]

As for the time spent?

That's a minor matter!

[This is a crystallization of wisdom from the Chixin Society, transcending the current era and condensed through the gifts of multiple time periods. Once it can be produced, the issue of production time can be left to the future.]

As time progresses, new technologies will always emerge, leading to even faster and more convenient production efficiency.

[After reviewing the information about the ultimate weapon, your only major drawback is that because the ultimate weapon contains such immense energy, its activation speed is extremely slow.]

The speed after launch is also very slow.

It's no exaggeration to say that extraordinary professionals often receive subtle, almost imperceptible, hints from the heavens.

Being targeted by a weapon of mass destruction like the ultimate military weapon would inevitably create a sense of crisis.

Therefore, in the face of attack or pursuit, ultimate military equipment is no different from scrap metal.

[After all, it hadn't even exploded yet; the enemy had already fled and disappeared.]

Fortunately, the biggest crisis facing the Red Heart Society right now is a defensive battle.

In defensive battles, the ultimate military weapon can unleash unimaginable power.

[However, due to the immense power of the ultimate military weapon, there are concerns that it might cause significant damage to the mainland, so no on-site testing has been conducted yet.]

All the explosion effects were derived from the second generation of the Red Heart.

In response, you casually transported this ultimate military weapon to the vicinity of the cliffside insect swarm on the eastern defensive line of the Abyss Battlefield.

Over the years, the number of Abyssal Demonic Insects that have died at the hands of the Red Heart Society every day has been measured in hundreds of millions.

Even after such a number of demonic insects died, the surging number of demonic insects showed no signs of decreasing.

[Even with the continuous beams of light, the number of giant insects crawling out from under the cliff, and the number of newly appearing exploding demonic insects, was rapidly increasing.]

[Low-level self-destructing demonic insects are small in size, yet they can unleash mid-level destructive power.]

[Mid-level self-destructing demonic insects possess the ability to conceal their aura and body; the power generated upon self-destruction is enough to injure even a seventh-level professional.]

Such terrifying destructive power forced the Red Heart Society warriors to remain holed up in the eastern defense line, unable to advance an inch.

Even the protective barriers and formations along the eastern defense line have recently become somewhat unstable due to the corrosive effects of the exploding exploding insects.

Therefore, the worm nests on the eastern defense line are the most suitable place to test ultimate military weapons.

In March of the 149th year of the Extraordinary Calendar, the ultimate military weapon was quietly transported to the eastern defense line.

Just then, a hoarse, violent roar suddenly echoed from the depths of the cliff.

The boundless abyssal worms suddenly became ferocious amidst this hissing sound.

[Boom boom boom! 】

At the same moment, countless, seemingly endless, exploding insects flew out from below the cliff.

Perhaps today is the day the Abyssal Demon Worms have planned their attack, or perhaps it's the arrival of the ultimate weapon, but somehow the Demon Worm Queen on the cliff senses a deadly crisis.

In short, the already terrifying swarm of demonic insects reached an unbelievable level at this moment.

Fortunately, the nine heads were moved here by the projection of the Abyss's will, and the Supreme Seedling used to snipe the Crimson Heart Battle Group had already fled and gone into hiding, so the Crimson Heart Battle Group was able to come here to provide support.

[However, these demonic insects seem inexhaustible. Even when the Crimson Heart Battle Group stands high in the sky to launch a dimensional reduction attack, each attack creates a large empty area on the battlefield.]

However, due to the sheer number of demonic insects, the empty area was quickly filled back in.

Overall, however, the arrival of the Red Heart Legion greatly reduced the pressure on the soldiers on the eastern defense line.

[In particular, the Red Heart Battle Group attracted the attention of the self-destructing worms, giving the eastern defense line a much-needed respite.]

[That same month, after the ultimate military weapon was assembled and placed into the massive launch platform, with the interior of the cliff chosen as the launch location, the roar of the fuel began to be deafening.]

As the ultimate military weapon soared into the sky, its terrifying propulsion providing a continuous stream of power, and the defensive barrier assembled from third-generation extraordinary alloys shattered all obstacles from the exploding demonic insects in front of it, plummeting into the depths of the cliff, you finally understood just how slow the research institute meant by "slow."

That speed isn't even as fast as the strike speed of a medium-sized military weapon!

[Any professional, once locked onto by an ultimate military weapon, could probably escape a considerable distance before the opponent takes off.]

Of course, whether or not one can escape the blast radius of the ultimate weapon depends on the individual's level and skills.

【Boom! 】

An unparalleled, all-consuming, and terrifying power, seemingly capable of destroying time itself, erupted from the deepest part of the cliff.

For a moment, even the nearby abyss trembled, and the world seemed to weep and wail.

[Terrain changes, collapse of the abyss mountains.]

The eastern defense line, built by the Red Heart Society at great expense, crumbled instantly before the ultimate military eruption, despite being far from the location.

The Red Heart Army soldiers defending the vicinity, under the protection of the Red Heart Warband and the Demon Sealing Warband, suffered no casualties.

After all, Chixin had anticipated all of this.

But as the terrifying aftershocks spread, an angry roar echoed from the depths of the cliff.

Immediately afterwards, a terrifying insect queen, tens of thousands of feet tall, rose from the ground, glaring angrily at the location of the Crimson Heart Society.

The aura emanating from the Ten Thousand Feet Insect Queen was chilling.

That mysterious power, seemingly capable of connecting heaven and earth, sent a jolt through your heart.

[Deep within the cliff, a demon king lurks?]

Is the Red Heart Society really that unlucky?

Unexpectedly, after letting out an angry hiss at you, the Queen Insect turned and left.

There was no stopping along the way.

[But as it turned around, you saw bloody wounds on the queen's back.]

Clearly, the ultimate military weapon made the other side very wary.

[The enemy's retreat might also be due to fear that Crimson Heart would unleash a second, or even a third, ultimate weapon.] [Watching the towering Insect Queen flee, the Lava Demon's normally quiet superbrain began to function.]

[After a moment's thought, He understood the cause and effect.]

[As the ruler of the abyss, the projected will of the abyss must know that a supreme lord slumbers here.]

[Even the surging swarm of insects nearby could very well be the lord's retinue influenced by the aura emanating from this supreme lord.]

[The projected will is simply waiting, waiting for the Insect Queen to awaken and see that Red Heart has so many delicious dishes; then it will naturally want to enjoy them to its heart's content.]

[The projected will simply hadn't expected that Crimson Heart would be able to produce an ultimate weapon capable of harming the Queen Insect in such a short time.]

[You listened to the lava demon's words and thought the projected will of the abyss was somewhat insidious.]

[If the ultimate military weapon does not appear in the world, then once the Ten Thousand Feather Insect Queen awakens, the Crimson Heart Society will inevitably face a great calamity.]

[The sealed magic stone couldn't even hold out for long against a level 99 super-powerful Abyss Lord; against a Supreme Lord, it would probably crumble at the first touch.]

At that point, your simulation will likely be over.

Thinking about this makes me feel a bit emotional.

[If you ever have the chance in the future, you should also give the projected will of the Yin Abyss a good beating and pay it all back.]

In May of the 149th year of the Extraordinary Calendar, the Red Heart Society began rebuilding its eastern defense line on new terrain.

In the same month, a large number of Red Heart Army soldiers and guard regiments were transferred to Red Heart City to participate in its defense.

[In August of the 149th year of the Extraordinary Calendar, the Demon Research Department, based on the corpses of various powerful Abyss Lords, developed the Lava Second Generation Potion, which is more suitable for the Lava Demon's body to absorb and refine.]

[Under the same conditions, condensing the corpse and soul of a super-powerful Abyss Lord into a second-generation potion increases the absorption effect by another forty percent.]

[In the same month, the Demon Research Department, now freed up, conducted extensive research on the Ascension Potions for the Minion Army, based on the Lava Second Generation Potion.]

[In October of the 149th year of the Extraordinary Calendar, a second-generation sublimation potion, more suitable for the servant army to absorb and refine, enhancing their physical body, soul, and will, was developed.]

The overall strength of the auxiliary army has greatly improved.

Soon, the Red Heart Army soldiers who consumed the Red Heart Crystals discovered that they could also increase their experience points by consuming the second-generation Ascension Potion.

This rate of increase is even faster than the efficiency of refining divinely bestowed crystals.

Upon learning of this, Deng Qi immediately issued a lockdown order.

[After all, this enhancement drug, produced by the Demon Research Department specifically for research on abyssal demons, could hardly guarantee that it wouldn't have a disastrous effect on the titled Crimson Heart warriors.]

The Crystal of the Heart is a product that transforms people into something akin to a demon.

[If we add the sublimation potion made primarily from demon corpses and souls, he really doesn't dare to imagine the consequences should drastic changes occur in the future.]

[In the same month, after learning of this, the Demon Research Department allocated a significant amount of resources to conduct research on the titled "Red Heart" warriors.]

They were also very curious about this.

[If we could convert the second-generation Ascension Potion into a more suitable potion for the titled Crimson Heart warriors to absorb and refine, wouldn't that be an immense achievement?]

In this way, the massive number of demon corpses killed by the Red Heart Society will finally have a purpose.

However, the issue of the chaotic effects caused by consuming demonic flesh is currently only in the theoretical research stage.

This point requires careful consideration and further research.

In December of the 149th year of the Extraordinary Calendar, after consuming the fourth Inspiration Fruit, Elder Jun's understanding deepened, and he officially condensed a Level Six Soul Domain.

[Level 96!]

【become!】

However, after achieving the breakthrough, the old general did not show any excited joy on his face.

[Afterwards, with a helpless sigh, you understood the reason.]

The Fruit of Inspiration can indeed induce a state of sudden enlightenment, bringing a surge of insights into the soul.

It can be said that a single fruit of inspiration is worth decades of insights.

However, the enlightenment brought about by the Fruit of Inspiration comes at the cost of consuming one's maximum soul capacity and life essence.

[Once the upper limit of one's soul and the source of one's life are damaged, one's ability to progress in the future will be greatly affected.]

The speed at which one can perceive the soul will be greatly reduced.

[This is what the veteran thought before.]

After consuming four Inspiration Fruits, which allowed him to condense a large amount of true soul essence into his mind and comprehend higher realms of the soul, he discovered that the upper limit of his soul had been severely damaged.

There is also the source of life.

It's no exaggeration to say that the soul's upper limit and life force, having been tormented and repeatedly exploited four times, are now a massive hole.

He felt he had at most ten more years to live.

Normally, the pursuit of a higher level of existence is aimed at achieving a longer lifespan.

But why are they now turning against the Heavenly Generals?

[To live longer, I need to push myself to new heights.]

[The breakthrough was achieved at the cost of his own lifespan, and even the upper limit of his soul was severely damaged, making it almost impossible for him to break through on his own again.]

Sword Elder stood to the side, scoffing.

Hey buddy, you've got your hands on the Fruit of Inspiration, haven't you?

Given the current crisis, the number of Abyss Lords is increasing rapidly every day.

Are you sure you can live another ten years?

Stop dreaming!

[Before you die, you can still experience the exhilaration of a level 96 professional; consider yourself lucky!]

The strongest being recorded in human history was only level 96!

You can now truly call yourself the strongest in the world!

The old man's lips twitched slightly. The strongest in the world possesses unparalleled strength, unwavering confidence, and the power to sweep away all obstacles.

Given the current situation, which of these points do you want to meet?

[If you can easily find a large number of level 99 students, what makes level 96 students so proud?]

[Then, the old man produced a thick notebook filled with his personal reflections, explaining that these were insights he gained while consuming the Fruit of Inspiration!]

Despite his mixed feelings, the necessary procedures still had to be followed.

Sword Elder ignored Army Elder. He looked at you and indicated that if the opportunity arose, he hoped you would prepare more Inspiration Fruits for him.

[That old soldier is so dramatic!]

He's not pretentious!

Since I'm going to die anyway, I might as well experience the feeling of being overwhelmed by spiritual insights a few more times before I die.

Most importantly, now that I've already damaged my soul's upper limit and life force, I won't be able to improve my professional level through my own comprehension for the rest of my life.

Since we're already doing it, we might as well do it thoroughly!

[Every time I consume a Fruit of Inspiration, and gain an additional insight into my soul, my future self in the next timeline will suffer less.]

[It's not just the veterans of the army and the swordsman; it's all the ninth-tier professionals in the Crimson Heart Battle Group now.]

[Any insights they gain during battle will be recorded immediately and handed over to you.]

[Fortunately, you are a powerful extraordinary individual who is currently refining your Bright Moon Battle Qi, possessing a strong memory. A mere sweep of your soul power is enough for you to memorize the contents above.]

If you're a normal person, this is a truly despairing thing.

[But for the sake of the Red Heart Society's future strength, and to provide even more powerful support and assistance to the next timeline, you alone must shoulder the responsibility of understanding and empowering everyone's souls!]

In April of the 150th year of the Extraordinary Era, three more warriors from the Crimson Heart Battle Group condensed their Soul Domains and stepped into the Ninth Revolution level.

[Under your full guidance, almost all members of the Red Heart Battle Group have now reached the eighth level of cultivation.]

With the collaborative assistance of all staff at the Red Heart Research Institute, although the Super Armor project is still stuck and unable to provide a satisfactory solution, the production efficiency of the Red Heart Armor has been greatly improved after reorganization.

Currently, the Crimson Heart Battle Group has nine hundred Rank 8 professionals clad in Crimson Heart armor.

It can be said that the overall combat capability of the Red Heart Battle Group has reached an unprecedented level.

[In the same month, an anomaly occurred on the eastern defense line of the Abyss Battlefield.]

The towering abyssal queen, having healed her wounds, turned a corner and returned!

Upon its appearance, the Abyss Queen unleashed a frenzied massacre on the Red Heart Society's soldiers.

As a supreme lord, a notorious abyss lord known for her tyranny, brutality, and slaughter, how could the Queen of Insects not harbor any negative emotions after being injured by the ultimate military weapon?

[Ignoring the Red Heart Society and fleeing back then was a last resort.]

[He completely ignored the commands of the Abyss's projected will!]

What He remembers most vividly is that at a crucial moment when He was asleep, He was wounded and even had His foundation shaken by that damned person.

As for the threat that his own family members pose to the Red Heart Society?

He doesn't care!
