Chapter 1094: Chapter 152: The Triple Demons

That was unadulterated malice.

Although she had an exceptionally gentle appearance, seeming as pure and harmless as the girl next door.

But the smile on her face was colder than the darkest night before dawn.

——Lin Yiyi had seen fallen ones evolved to this extent before.

They were fighting with the Brothers of the Bloody Hand at the Saltpeter Ranch.

These were not the newly formed appendages, equivalent to Gold-tier fallen without Elemental Power, but demons who had completely mastered their own heterogenous powers!

At the time, it was only by sacrificing the holy "Opposing Ones" that the players were able to defeat the "Bloody Hand Brothers".

Otherwise, the players would have been turned to dust and eradicated in the instant the fight began, by the "Twisted Secret of Genesis" chanted by the Bloody Hand Brothers.

An idea sparked suddenly in Lin Yiyi’s mind:

"...Were the Bloody Hand Brothers from Saltpeter Ranch also your people?"

She had no evidence.

It was just an idea that suddenly appeared in her mind, like an epiphany.

"Yes."

But to Lin Yiyi’s surprise, the other side admitted it very readily.

Instead, she looked at Lin Yiyi with a mocking expression, and laughed: "What else?"

"...There aren’t many places that can produce the Blood of Demons."

It was Longjing Tea who whispered from behind Lin Yiyi: "The Blood of Demons is a very precious material. In principle, it should be stored and managed by the ruler personally... because a vial of Demon Blood is equivalent to an experience potion."

If used on a death soldier, it can instantly make them peak Silver-tier. If smuggled through security, it can be used on multiple death soldiers at a banquet—so many high-tier fallen ones could slaughter all the high-level officials who are mostly ordinary people.

In this world, controlling the flow of Demon Blood is like gun control on Earth—but this isn’t just a rifle. It’s a very portable mini-handgun... or a very good sniper rifle.

Longjing Tea had another strange thought in his mind.

If... Ingrid and Annan were both candidates for the position of "Book of the Celestial Chariot".

Then...

Could Ingrid also possess the technology to purify erosion?

If reasonably used, Demon Blood should also be able to increase the "depth of corruption" of the fallen.

After all, the path of corruption does not have as many thresholds as the path of sublimation, which must be cleared one by one. As long as the stored power meets the standard, the next phase of evolution can proceed unimpeded.

From this perspective, the path of sublimation is like cultivating immortality... while the path of corruption is more like the Insect Race’s devouring evolution.

And fundamentally, Demon Blood can directly mutate ordinary people into demons, because it contains too much violent curses.

As long as the curses contained in the Demon Blood are sufficient... then it’s not even necessary for ordinary people to ingest it. A fallen with a certain foundation can completely use the Demon Blood to "catalyze" the process, only requiring Ingrid to purify off this residue to instantly create a batch of "fully-formed" fallen ones.

And purification is one of the powers of the Celestial Chariot!

Ingrid doesn’t have the Book of the Celestial Chariot, she might not be able to purify as conveniently and quickly as Annan.

But as long as she can complete the ritual, she will be able to catalyze "Poppy Mathieu" and other fully-formed fallen ones...

At this thought, Longjing Tea’s pupils constricted suddenly.

Longjing Tea suddenly thought of Winter’s "Satisfaction Gold" plan.

He also thought of Nata County, Saltpeter Ranch, the Fraternity of the extreme North... and the entire ship’s load of Demon Blood...

"I understand!"

He exclaimed suddenly: "If, indeed, there is a ’King of the Fallen’ in this world who can secretly connect with high-tier fallen around the world and has a certain level of control over them..."

——Then that person must be Ingrid!

Annan, who was watching the live broadcast, also became pensive.

"I see now..."

[——Fallen, open the doors of the Worm and Cicada!]

Annan suddenly remembered the sentence he heard in his hallucination before.

"The Fallen"... so they are also one of the dominions of the Book of the Celestial Chariot?

Just as Annan chose "The Path of the Cicada," cultivating players through the path of sublimation,

Ingrid chose "The Path of the Worm"... cultivating the fallen to become the King of the Fallen.

And yet, Poppy Mathieu was not at all flustered.

This demon, appearing outwardly as a demure girl and claiming to be "Karl Mathieu’s" son, with indeterminate gender, race, and abilities... merely chuckled when seeing Longjing Tea’s sudden realization.

"It really wasn’t easy... so much time has passed, and you’ve finally figured it out.

"—But it’s already too late."

Her voice was laden with overwhelming confidence: "All of you are going to..."

Poppy was midway through speaking when she suddenly made her move.

From her as the center, a bizarre amber field rapidly expanded outward.

The environment around them instantly transformed.

The ships once clad in iron armor turned into a desert at dusk.

On the horizon, it seemed as though an endless storm was sweeping through... but it was not the keen, knife-like storm of Maria. Instead, it was a filthy, murky sandstorm, swirling with fine sand.

They stood in a circular area.

It was about the size of a football field.

Encircling them were twelve towering pillars. These pillars were all bound by golden chains, and right in the center was one that had been broken in half, fallen over. Only the chains on that pillar were shattered.

From directly above, it looked like a clock face with only a minute hand.

But because they didn’t know which direction was twelve o’clock, it left the players unable to judge what "time" it really was for the moment.

In the twilight, these pillars cast long, dense shadows.

Underfoot was no longer the rocking ship, but soft sand; behind them was no longer the retreat-less sea, but an endless desert—this made the players even more tense.

"...Is this an inherent domain?"

Jiu’er blurted out.

Longjing Tea’s brows furrowed tightly.

Could it be... that this Poppy is the "Sand Demon"?

"If you consider me a weakling like the Brothers of the Bloodied Hand... then you are sorely mistaken."

Poppy’s voice started to resonate heavily.

The wings on her back gradually grew larger—enveloped by the sand, they turned a dull leaf-like amber color. Her skin was also gradually covered by sand, her whole body swelling as a result.

The white-haired, gaunt man beside her had already silently melted into the shadows.

And the other one, "Roaring Fang," was also beginning to transform into a demon.

His skin gradually cracked open, magma seeping out. It dripped onto the ground, sizzling as it scorched the sand.

—Without a doubt, he was a "Flame Demon."

"Fighting three bosses at once, huh..."

Longjing Tea’s expression turned sour.

They were equivalent to shadow and flame demons of the Gold rank, but without the power of Elements.

Plus, who knows how much demon blood they’ve consumed... probably the equivalent to a "Mysterious Demon" who has lived for a dozen or two decades.

He immediately felt perplexed.

Eight people, each with one life.

At first encounter... could they really beat them?

No matter what...

Longjing Tea’s gaze hardened.

"—[Commence Battle Immediately]!"

He immediately issued the Decree.
