Chapter 2532 Occupy
In the second-floor laboratory, under the influence of the mageweath magic array, energy was continuously extracted from the bound demonic seed. This energy pa.s.sed through an intermediary process before being swiftly injected into the h.e.l.l Gate.
"It worked! Hahaha! We finally succeeded!"
Guillermo watched the h.e.l.l Gate radiating a dazzling purple light, his eyes reflecting excitement.
With the mageweath"s power, they could continuously draw strength from the demonic seed and enhance it for their use.
The mageweath left by Jealousy was far more reliable and effective than Fang Heng"s control over vines—and much safer!
As Guillermo contemplated this, he glanced at Fang Heng, a glimmer of malice appearing in his eyes.
As for Fang Heng, he was indeed talented to have completed the master magic array in such a short time. If he were just an ordinary person, the Revolution Society might consider recruiting him as an ally. Unfortunately, Fang Heng was a demonic seed.
"Guillermo."
Guillermo, lost in thought, suddenly heard someone calling his name. Startled, he turned around to see President Narlyev entering the hall with a group of people. He immediately lowered his head respectfully.
"President."
"I heard that the master magic array has been completed, and the preliminary experiments are going well," Narlyev said as he turned to Fang Heng. "Fang Heng, your quick setup of the magic array was thanks to your teamwork. We"ll need your a.s.sistance with the remaining magic arrays, and I hope we can finish them together for tonight"s use."
Fang Heng smiled slightly and replied, "Of course, the difficulty of setting up the auxiliary magic arrays is much lower than that of the master magic array. It won"t take long."
"Good, the remaining auxiliary magic arrays need to be deployed in the warehouse on the next floor. I"ll have someone take you there."
Two members of the Revolution Society stepped forward from behind Narlyev, gesturing, "Please."
Fang Heng nodded and left the hall with Yu Jiayuan and three others.
As they watched Fang Heng and his group leave, Guillermo"s eyes filled with a hint of malice, "President, Fang Heng is dangerous. We should consider taking him down soon."
"Not yet. With the master magic array completed, I have a better chance of a.s.saulting the Star Mage Tower tonight. We might still need his help to break through the conservatives" defenses. In any case, we must be patient until we rescue the Lord of the demonic seed."
"I understand."
"Additionally, the Lord of the demonic seed has been sealed for too long and may need to absorb a significant amount of energy to recover. Fang Heng will make the best sacrifice. Keep a close watch on him. If you notice anything unusual while I"m not around, you have my permission to take him down immediately. Understood?"
"Yes!"
...
As night fell again, Fang Heng and his group had been temporarily a.s.signed by the Revolution Society to the underground area to set up the auxiliary magic arrays since the afternoon.
Based on his a.s.sessment, the purpose of the auxiliary magic arrays was to provide temporary energy for the demonic seed. However, after completing the setup, the arrays were still not ready for immediate use.
To activate the charging magic arrays, another type of mageweath core was required.
Fang Heng had inquired about the mageweath core with the researchers from the Revolution Society, but they were vague and seemed reluctant to share the full truth.
As night approached, the group was taken back to the lounge.
"Whoosh!"
A magic array slowly appeared in the lounge. Fang Heng stepped through it, re-entering the game.
He had just contacted Bai Mu outside the game.
From the intelligence gathered from Bai Mu, Fang Heng learned that the mageweath was a special ability of the Jealousy demonic seed.
The Jealousy demonic seed could create special mageweath cores, and through these cores, it could temporarily lend a portion of its strength to the controller of the mageweath core.
However, it was said that creating such a thing was extremely complex, and for the demonic seed, the mageweath core was akin to siphoning off its own abilities. If too much energy was released, the demonic seed"s overall strength would be diminished.
Additionally, the mageweath could store a significant portion of the demonic seed"s strength.
Typically, the "Jealousy" demonic seed would lock away part of its power within the mageweath core, and when an emergency arose that required a quick energy boost, it could extract the locked energy.
Alternatively, it could directly give the mageweath core to its subordinates or followers, allowing them to temporarily gain strength far exceeding their own through the power contained within the core.
Upon hearing about Fang Heng"s current predicament, Bai Mu hoped he could think of a solution.
If they could obtain a few mageweaths, they might find a way to counter the Jealousy demonic seed.
"Fang Heng, we"re in trouble. We"ve been placed under house arrest by the Revolution Society."
Yu Jiayuan said. She had gone out to scout while Fang Heng was offline but was quickly stopped by the Revolution Society"s watchers. "They"ve restricted our movements, and it"s clear they harbor a lot of hostility toward us."
Fang Heng nodded and said, "Yes, I contacted some players from the Occult Alliance while I was offline. They just faced another attack from h.e.l.l monsters summoned by the h.e.l.l Gate. Furthermore, the Occult Union believes that Narlyev"s current target isn"t just about creating a demon binding chain, but rather his goal is to free the sealed demonic seed within the Starry Tower."
Hearing this, everyone felt a shift in their hearts.
The Occult Union sealed the Jealousy demonic seed? Was this a joke?
"Is the information reliable?."
"Yes, I"ve confirmed it"
Fang Heng nodded slightly. He had been taken aback when he first heard this news from Ruan Ziying. According to her, in recent years, the Revolution Society had repeatedly targeted the Occult Society, with each a.s.sault focused on the Star Mage Tower.
As a result, the Conservatives had placed significant forces in the Star Mage Tower area.
However, last night was different.
The Revolution Society had seized the entire underground library amidst the chaos.
Recalling the demonic seed of Jealousy he had discovered in the inner seal of the Star Mage Tower, Fang Heng suddenly understood.
He had been deceived by the Revolution Society.
Narlyev had never intended to betray the Jealousy demonic seed.
The Jealousy demonic seed was sealed by the Occult Research Society, and Narlyev had always thought about how to help the Jealousy demonic seed break free from that seal.
After the initial a.s.sault on the Occult Alliance failed, Narlyev began to change his tactics, relying on the power of the mageweath core to enhance the h.e.l.l Gate.
In its normal state, the mageweath core couldn"t unleash its full strength, which led him to find the Book of Greleng that contained records of the mageweath core"s magic array.
"Tch! I knew all along that the people from the Revolution Society weren"t so benevolent as to cooperate with us!" Sun Zhaoyu exclaimed as he listened to Fang Heng"s account, cursing loudly. "They talk about wanting to break free from Jealousy"s constraints—what a load of nonsense!"
