Doomsday Summoning Frenzy

When it came to the sovereign, Tang Haofei's expression instantly became serious.

He slowly stood up straight and paced back and forth in the spacious living room. “I didn't thoroughly investigate the sovereign's purpose in my last life, but I know for sure that the sovereign is definitely not on our side!”

Wen Yu nodded.

“If he was on our side, he should have sounded the alarm for the human race when the origin extraction device appeared. So you didn’t find out anything about the sovereign's purpose?”

It was really disappointing for Wen Yu to think that Tang Haofei, who was also rank one in his last life, didn’t uncover anything about the sovereign’s motives.

However, Tang Haofei was indeed a talented individual.

“I only found out a little bit.”

Tang Haofei said with a smile as he sat back down in his chair, directly pulling out a large pile of items from his Spatial Ring.

...

“This.”

Tang Haofei took out a black crystal.

“This thing is found on every demonic entity's head; you should have seen it before, right?”

Wen Yu nodded.

“Normally, if you kill a demonic entity and take this thing off, it will directly dissipate. However, in this world, there are some black crystals that appear out of nowhere and are acquired by Earth’s life forms. In my last life, I called it—the Fragment of the Heart of the Demon Realm! This is because the energy contained in this thing is similar to the Earth's core origin.”

Wen Yu took the Fragment of the Heart of the Demon Realm from Tang Haofei’s hand, and the more he looked at it, the more familiar it felt. After rummaging through his memory, he realized this was the very object that had been on the giant eagle's head back in Chaihe Town...

Playing with the Fragment of the Heart of the Demon Realm in his hand, Wen Yu asked in confusion, “What is its purpose?”

“This little thing has a huge role!”

Tang Haofei said with a smile, gesturing to another Fragment of the Heart of the Demon Realm in his hand as he spoke slowly.

“This thing, if obtained by humans who have not yet advanced or beasts that have not mutated, will automatically dissolve into their bodies, transforming them into demonic entities! At that time, the transformed beings would no longer be considered Earth’s life forms, and humans wouldn’t be able to use the Exchange Stone Pillar or enter the treasure land. However, the Fragment of the Heart of the Demon Realm will provide the host with an alternative advancement path, though I’m not entirely clear on the specifics.”

“That doesn’t sound very useful,” Wen Yu decisively said.

“True, but this thing can be absorbed by professionals!”

Tang Haofei said with a serious expression.

...

“When a professional consumes such an item, they will fall into a deep sleep, and their body will be modified.”

“When the professional fully absorbs the energy from the Fragment of the Heart of the Demon Realm, they will awaken, becoming an unknown entity that is neither a professional nor a demonic entity, and similarly, they cannot use the Exchange Stone Pillar or enter the treasure land!”

Wen Yu frowned, “What’s the use of that?”

“To break free from the sovereign’s control!!!”

Tang Haofei spelled it out word by word!

...

“The sovereign can reclaim the powers he bestows upon professionals at will, but professionals who have absorbed the Fragment of the Heart of the Demon Realm do not fall into this category!”

Wen Yu stared intently at the Fragment of the Heart of the Demon Realm before him, silently pondering for a long while before gently shaking his head.

“Breaking free from the sovereign’s control doesn't hold much significance. According to you, if the demonic clan is that powerful, then breaking free from the sovereign’s control would be meaningless!”

Tang Haofei shook his head, “It does have meaning! Very significant meaning, and this relates to a part of the sovereign's objectives that I detected...”

After finishing his sentence, Tang Haofei picked up a black cylindrical object from the table.
