Chapter 2430: The Parasitized
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
When Han Fei, Feng Xingliu, and the others arrived, Feng Yu rolled her eyes at them, followed by a contemptuous look.
In the eyes of outsiders, this was very obvious. Although Feng Yu would stand on the same side as Han Fei and the others, that was because Feng Xingliu and Han Fei were good friends.
However, Feng Yu actually despised Han Fei and Feng Xingliu, so she didn’t want to hang around with these two people.
At least, no one would have thought that Feng Yu and Han Fei were much closer than they thought.
Boom! Huff~
!!
This time, Han Fei was more ostentatious. He took out his big pipe and took a puff. Then, he looked around arrogantly and said leisurely, “Um! h.e.l.lo, little trash of the Heavenly Race and the trash of the big clans! The fourth round of qualifiers has pa.s.sed. You’d better hope that I don’t encounter you. Otherwise, hehe…”
Han Fei put on a creepy smile. There was no need to hide his hostility. In the last moment of the fourth round, Dao Domain Sunflower Head almost couldn’t hold on anymore. These people had collectively defected and joined forces with the ominous, ganging up on the Dao Domain Sunflower Head. He would never forget this.
If the White Monarch hadn’t taken action at the last moment, one of him and Feng Yu would have called their Eldest Senior Brother over to help.
Han Fei felt that he had to take revenge.
However, this matter was essentially a trick of the Demonic Monarch. At that time, he deliberately only sent a thousand Demon Spirits to intercept the army of 3,000 partic.i.p.ants. In the end, in front of everyone, he sacrificed all the Demon Spirits and destroyed all the guardian spiritual plants of Dao Domain Sunflower Head.
This was to make an illusion for everyone so that everyone would think that both he and Dao Domain Sunflower Head were exhausted. Through the hands of the partic.i.p.ants, he could break through the World Origin and take down Dao Domain Sunflower Head in one fell swoop.
In fact, at the last moment, his plan had basically succeeded. Fortunately, the White Monarch had been waiting for him to appear for 30,000 years. If it weren’t for the White Monarch, Han Fei would have been doomed this time.
After a while, when everyone arrived, the Monarch-level referee came to the arena.
At this moment, there were 132,864 people in this round. Almost 20,000 people had died compared to when they partic.i.p.ated in the compet.i.tion. Han Fei didn’t know if the death of these 20,000 people was worth it. Just to make them realize the horror of the ominous, so many people had died for nothing?
Fortunately, although 20,000 people died, most of the remaining people had obtained a lot of resources. Those who survived the fourth round, as long as they were not in the perfected Star Transformation Realm or above, their strength would generally increase by about 20%.
This was the benefit of resources and trials.
In this case, the deaths of the 20,000 people were worth it.
The referee said, “Today, there are a total of 132,864 partic.i.p.ants here. You partic.i.p.ated in the conquest of the Demon Domain. You encountered a tremendous number of demonic creatures, and you saw enough darkness. Today, I have a secret to tell you. Those darkness may appear in our Sea Realm someday in the future, or maybe not. However, if you rise up, you might understand in the future that those darkness are our lifelong enemies…”
“Hiss!”
“What?”
“Will that thing appear in the Sea Realm?”
Someone s.h.i.+vered. They had experienced the battlefield in the Demon Domain and knew the horror of those demonic creatures and demonic plants. They could control and parasitize people. They had thought that the demonic sources were the mastermind behind the Demon Domain, but later they learned that behind the demonic source, there was an even stronger Demonic Monarch.
In the next few months, although Han Fei and the others had finished early, the remaining people became more and more concentrated. Naturally, they encountered demonic source true bodies in the wilderness.
It could be said that one third of the partic.i.p.ants who died were killed by the demonic source true bodies, Demon Spirits, and other strange existences.
Han Fei’s heart stirred. Why did this referee announce this matter directly? Wasn’t he afraid that this matter would be publicized and cause panic?
But on second thought, it didn’t seem that it would cause much panic even if this matter was publicized! This was because most people had never experienced the ominous, so they didn’t know what kind of existence the ominous was.
Furthermore, they would naturally feel that even if the sky collapsed, there were still taller men to hold it up. If even the tallest person couldn’t withstand it, let it be! If the strong were all dead, why would the weak like them resist uselessly?
The referee said, “I’m just giving all of you a warning. The darkness is called the ominous, and it’s the enemy of all races. The ominous you encountered is actually nothing, but in the distant Sea of Stars, there is the ominous that is much more terrifying than you can imagine. Therefore, in the world of the strong, there’s an iron law, that is, all races and the ominous are mortal enemies and will never cooperate.”
The referee said this for Zhao Qinglong and the others to hear, but he didn’t say their names. He had already given them face. However, now that he had said it, if anyone dared to violate this rule again, they would be taken as traitors.
However, most people were puzzled because they didn’t think they would cooperate with the ominous. They didn’t partic.i.p.ate in the battle between the ominous and Dao Domain Sunflower Head, so they didn’t know much about what the referee said.
However, in the next moment, the referee said, “Today, there are three things. The first is to declare the result of the fourth round of qualifiers. The second is to exchange your battle results for merits, which will give you a chance to exchange for prizes. The third thing… heh, it’s that some of you have been parasitized by the ominous. Therefore, I’ll help you dig that thing out of your bodies.”
“Huh?”
“How is that possible?”
“Hiss! Parasitized?!”
In the field, almost 80% of the people s.h.i.+vered. Being parasitized was not a joke. After three years of battle, how could they not know the parasitic ability of demonic sources? These things could parasitize everything. The entire demonic source territories had been possessed by them. Now, they could even silently parasitize humans. Then, those who were parasitized would almost unknowingly become their puppets!
A moment ago, many people didn’t pay much attention to the ominous’ arrival, but now, they were even a little frightened. Who was parasitized? Did I?
Even Han Fei was very surprised.
A bright halo bloomed on the tower. At first, the people here were fine. However, under the bright pillar of light, after only ten seconds, something happened.
“Ahhh!”
Someone knelt on the ground in pain. Black smoke was drifting from his body.
“Sh*t!”
Many people immediately jumped away from that person. Even Feng Xingliu blinked and said, “Holysh*t!”
Zhou Run added, “If the demonic sources can parasitize humans, they’re indeed very difficult to deal with.”
Han Fei slightly frowned. It’s more than that! If they really parasitize countless people, they would spread quickly like a virus.
Fortunately, they had come out early, and these people had just finished the fourth round and hadn’t had the time to interact with others.
One, two, three.
In an instant, people who were emitting black smoke appeared frequently, and in the end, there were 2,803 of them.
This number shocked everyone. No one knew when or how they were parasitized.
However, nearly 3,000 people had been parasitized at once. If this spread, the Divine Capital Dynasty, a place where all races gathered, would probably be plagued soon.
Those people who were emitting black smoke screamed miserably, because before this, they didn’t feel that they had been parasitized. Until this moment, they felt as if ten thousand ants were eroding their hearts and they felt very uncomfortable.
The referee said, “The ominous can silently parasitize your bodies, absorb your power, grow, and even infect others. Therefore, I hope you can recognize how terrifying it is.”
Looking at the suffering hosts, someone finally couldn’t help but ask, “Lord Referee, is there anyone parasitized in the current Sea Realm? We can all enter the Sea of Stars. What if…”
The referee shook his head slightly. “Don’t worry. The Demon Domain is special. We got it from a special place in the Sea of Stars. Most of the time, it’s impossible for them to leave that place. The reason why it’s used for your a.s.sessment is that you are the strong masters of the Sea Realm, and you are already standing at the top of this world. In the future, you may set foot in the Sea of Stars. Believe me, when the time comes, you will fight tooth and nail to leave the Sea Realm… Because that is the path to become a Monarch.”
“Huh?”
Han Fei was puzzled. This referee seemed to be encouraging everyone to leave the Sea Realm and go to the Sea of Stars.
However, could the Sky Opening Realm cultivators really explore in the Sea of Stars for a long time? He was very puzzled about this.
Feng Xingliu, on the other hand, said to Han Fei telepathically, “You’d better not try it! It’s said that the odds of death are as high as 90% if you want to cross that place.”
Han Fei raised his eyebrows and couldn’t help but look at Feng Xingliu. This guy seemed to know something. Since Feng Xingliu knew it, it was equivalent to him knowing it. He would ask him later.
