1125 A Surprise
“You’ve also discovered that the demons and the barbarian race have a close relationship.”
Fang Heng said as he walked forward. With a sudden force, he pulled out the purple essence from the curled-up monster’s body.
The 12 giant alchemy bodies that were left in the underground world were all dismantled by the zombie clones. Fang Heng’s alchemy skill had also been successfully maxed out. In addition, he also obtained 12 ‘demons’ that were nailed to the metal plates by the purple essence.
Fang Heng sent one of them to Qiu Yaokang for research and asked Victor to make a special storage box for the rest of the ores. The Four Seas Chamber of Commerce would bring the rest to the Empire warehouse, preparing to give the human Empire a surprise.
“I think this thing should be able to cause a little chaos in the Empire. Well, just take it as our meeting gift to the Empire.”
Looking silently at Fang Heng who was extracting the purple essence, Mikhael nodded and said, “Then I thank you on behalf of the Empire.”
“You’re welcome,”
Fang Heng answered and pulled out the purple essence from the monster’s body one by one until there was only one left.
As the amount of purple essence sealed in its body decreased, the demon’s life force continued to recover. It let out a hoarse sound from its mouth, and its skin and tentacles began to slowly twist and wriggle. The color of its body also gradually changed.
It was obvious that the last piece of purple essence could not control the demon for too long.
“Quick, there are six demons left. We’ll split them in half and you can help me pull out the purple essence. Just leave one will do.”
“Yes.”
Mikhael nodded and stepped forward to help Fang Heng pull out the purple essence.
…
On a slope to the East of the Empire’s military supplies warehouse, more than a dozen players from Prilla Gaming Guild were hiding in the dark, waiting to ambush them.
Sarwen hurried over from the other end of the path to meet up with the team.
“President, I’ve just asked around offline. I have also asked the people from the Federation, but they still can’t find out the identity of that mysterious person.”
“Yes.”
Ed nodded and said, “Continue to investigate.”
Sarwen hesitated for a moment, then leaned over and whispered, “Boss, did we make a mistake?”
“That’s impossible.”
Ed was very confident. He lowered his voice and said, “Keep investigating. It might not be someone from the Northern Federation. Try to get the Northern Federation to pull some strings and see if the other regions have any clues. We can also start with the anti-federation forces.”
“Alright.”
Sarwen agreed, his eyes focused on the military supplies warehouse not far away. “President, what are we staying here for? Are you going to attack the Empire’s supply warehouse?”
“There’s news that Her Highness has just arrived at the military supplies warehouse.”
“Ah? Her Highness Mingyue? What’s she doing in the warehouse so late at night?” asked Sarwen.
“Yes, I also think that there might be some problems. In addition, there are also a few batches of goods that Her Highness Mingyue personally ordered. They will be delivered to the supply warehouse tonight.”
Ed pointed at the forest on the east side of the military depot and said, “See that? There’s something wrong with the transport team hiding in the forest not far from the entrance. They’ve been there for more than two hours since I arrived.”
“Why are you being so mysterious? Why are you stopping at the entrance instead of sending the supplies to the armory in the middle of the night?”
Hearing this, Sarwen also felt that something was wrong. He asked, “President, do you think that the situation in the armory is related to the player behind Tang Mingyue?”
“Yeah, it’s probably related,” Ed nodded.
Sarwen then looked at the dozen or so players lying in ambush.
If they were to fight, they wouldn’t have any advantage at all.
“President, did we not bring enough people? Should I call more people over?”
“What’s the use of having more people? We’re not here to fight them.”
Ed replied softly.
He had originally come here to find an opportunity to chat with Her Highness Mingyue and find the player behind the scenes.
He didn’t expect to find something strange outside the military supplies warehouse, so Ed gave up on the plan.
He judged that Her Highness Mingyue would most likely take action tonight.
If things really turned out as he expected, he was worried that rashly making a move might disrupt the other party’s deployment and aggravate the conflict between the two sides.
Ed did not want to provoke a strong enemy.
“Well, that’s true.”
Sarwen also looked in the direction of the military supply depot and asked, “But what can they do? We can’t attack the military supplies, right?”
“Yeah, I can’t figure this out either…”
Ed could tell that the other party had a plan.
However, he couldn’t understand what was going on.
What did Tang Mingyue and the player behind the scenes want to do?
Ed was still troubled when he suddenly felt the ground under his feet shake violently. He held onto the tree trunk beside him.
A violent explosion was heard.
“BOOM! Boom boom boom!”
Sarwen was stunned and quickly looked in the direction of the Empire’s supply warehouse.
What was going on?
Did it explode?
The source of the explosion came from the Empire’s supply warehouse not far away!
The president had really guessed it!
Something had happened to the Empire’s armory!
“Captain, we…” said Sarwen as he turned to look at Ed.
“Don’t worry,”
Ed stared in the direction of the Empire’s armory that was on fire, his expression uncertain. “Let’s wait and see.”
…
Inside the Empire’s supply warehouse, the light of the fire shone.
The huge blast of air caused by the explosion sent the two guards at the door flying directly. Even Fang Heng and Mikhael, who had not gone far, were affected by the blast and jumped back at the same time.
Almost instantly, the alarm went off, and the Empire’s military supply warehouse was in chaos.
The violent explosion caused the entire warehouse to be blown up in an instant!
The ruins left behind by the explosion were also engulfed in a sea of fire and the flames quickly spread in all directions!
“Be careful! Be on full alert!”
“An explosion occurred! An explosion occurred in area No. 9! Be careful!”
“Warning! Level one alert!”
The entire west side of the Empire’s supply depot was being eroded by the sea of fire.
The guards immediately swarmed over to the west side to check on the situation.
“What’s that?”
In the raging flames, the first batch of guards who arrived saw a strange monster.
Its body was short, and its skin was covered in a layer of black stratum corneum.
It looked like a barbarian, but it was also a little different.
At the very least, the barbarian race was not that short, and they did not rely on their four limbs to crawl on the ground.
“Be careful!”
Whoosh!
The black monster that was crawling on the ground was extremely fast. In the blink of an eye, it had already reached the front of the guards!
The speed was shocking!
The chief guard immediately raised his large shield in front of him.
The monster’s forelimbs quickly twisted into long, thin black spikes under the black stratum corneum.
The sharp spike suddenly pierced forward.
“Swish!”
There was a dry sound.
The guard captain’s pupils contracted as he looked down at the steel shield in front of him.
The shield in his hand was actually pierced through!
After piercing through his steel shield, the spike also pierced through his right lung and went through his body.
“Captain!”
The guards’ eyes were bloodshot as they raised their spears and stabbed at the demon!
