"I want to assign these little guys a task."
As soon as these words were spoken, the entire conference room fell silent.
Then, Tang Haofei gently waved his hand, casting a Barrier throughout the conference room before Wen Yu spoke again.
"There have been some unusual movements from the Demon Realm."
It has been twenty-five years since Tang Haofei and Tang Hao last met, and during these twenty-five years, the world has remained smooth and calm. However, this calmness was merely the prelude to a storm. Today, the language in the Demon Realm sent a war warning to Wen Yu.
"You should all have heard of the name 'spirit of the demon lord', right?"
When the words 'spirit of the demon lord' were mentioned, everyone present, except for Yaven and Qin Shaoan, displayed a cold expression.
The current ruler of the Demon Realm was no longer a secret.
"Twenty-eight years ago, the spirit of the demon lord overthrew Feili's rule and completely became the overlord of the demonic clan. He disbanded the highest seven-member council of the demonic clan military department. From then on, the demonic clan became a one-man show under the spirit of the demon lord."
"This situation has its pros and cons for us. I don’t want to discuss the benefits today; instead, let’s talk about the disadvantages it brings, which are the subsequent impacts."
Wen Yu elaborated on the cause and effect of this situation, while the others listened quietly.
"Since the spirit of the demon lord took power, he has eradicated rebels and consolidated the internal forces of the demonic clan. The demonic clan, which was once divided into seven factions, has now been completely molded into a fist. What's even more terrifying is that all the hidden cards left behind by the former leaders of the demonic clan have been inherited by the spirit of the demon lord. He is now sharpening his knives, ready to take action against us!"
"So, war is imminent!"
"Wait, godfather, I have a question."
Seeing Tang Hao raise his hand, Wen Yu nodded slightly, indicating for him to speak.
"Shouldn't this matter be discussed at the military department meeting?"
Some provocative words came from Tang Hao's mouth. Upon hearing this, Tang Haofei narrowed his eyes, staring at his son like a fierce tiger. Under his father's gaze, Tang Hao couldn’t help but shrink his head.
"Is it strange...?"
He mumbled with a smile, which earned a kind laugh from Wen Yu.
"This is indeed the main issue for tomorrow's military department meeting. I’m not telling you all this to make you bear that pressure."
"The reason I called you here is because of another matter arising from this situation."
"You’re talking about the level restraint, right?"
Tang Haofei asked, to which Wen Yu nodded gently.
"This is indeed the biggest problem facing the spirit of the demon lord, and it is the first issue he needs to solve."
After saying this, Wen Yu turned a clock-like object on the table until the dial was fully revealed to everyone.
"Take a look at this."
Following Wen Yu's instructions, everyone looked at the dial and saw a clear number of 9.5% at the top.
"This is the current progress of the level restraint..."
Wen Yu explained, and everyone understood.
Since the level restraint at level eight was activated, over sixty years had passed—during which time, the level restraint had only been broken through by 9.5%.
This was the expected and normal breaking progress from level eight to level nine.
"To launch a large-scale attack or even a decisive battle, the level restraint is definitely an unavoidable topic."
"A few days ago, the spirit of the demon lord had already integrated all internal forces of the demonic clan and issued a war mobilization. From this perspective, it implies that the spirit of the demon lord has a plan to resolve the level restraint."
This war mobilization was widely known among the members of the demonic clan, and according to the intelligence gathered, all kinds of weapons and tools were already prepared.
