A Few Pieces of Information About the Eye of Madness
The Beastfolk high command, like startled birds, stumbled and hurriedly stepped across the threshold of the Insect Mother's residence.
Their heartbeats quickened due to the faint sense of oppression coming from behind them, and they could hear each other's panting.
As the last Beastfolk entered, the mansion's gates slammed shut with a deafening roar.
At the same time, the Psychic Energy Shield rose rapidly like a transparent wall, completely blocking out everything from the outside world.
If any of the Beastfolk high command had stopped to examine these shields closely, they would have been surprised to find...
The patterns on these barriers were clearly the array patterns used by their Beastfolk to condense Psychic Energy.
The exceptionally dense spiritual mist in the settlement originates from these array patterns.
Furthermore, these patterns bear a striking resemblance to the array patterns of the Sea Race.
This protective barrier not only blocked outside vision, but more importantly, it also cut off the escape route of this group of Beastfolk.
At this point, these Beastfolk "deserters" had no chance of escaping anymore.
The Shisui Radiant Feathers followed these Beastfolk and also found his way here.
However, he did not act immediately.
They simply waited quietly by the side for the Insect Mother to finish feeding.
He knew that the Insect Mother was in a state of extreme weakness, and her energy was almost completely depleted.
If we kill her now, the benefits we gain will be greatly reduced.
Shisui decided to wait patiently for a while until she recovered some energy before killing her.
Of course, he wouldn't allow the Insect Mother, whose cultivation level was higher than his, to fully recover to her peak condition.
All around, numerous Radiant Feathers, hidden in the shadows, were watching intently, waiting for their chance to strike.
Be ready to launch an attack at any time to interrupt the Insect Mother's energy absorption process.
At the same time, the investigation team dispatched by the Demon Race's Heaven-Controlling Realm had crossed the border between the two continents and arrived in the central region of the Kaiyang Continent.
Originally, their progress would have been faster.
However, because of the earlier theft of the experimental subject's Miao Xingyu, there were still Human Race spies at the handover point.
Their operation required strict secrecy, and naturally they did not want to be observed by Human Race spies.
Therefore, instead of taking the shortest and safest route through the canyon, they found another way.
As is well known, there is a significant difference in elevation Moonfall Continent and Kaiyang Continent.
Compared to the relatively gentle transition of the canyon, the junction of the two continents is characterized by cliffs and steep walls.
Some places can even be described as extremely dangerous.
For this reason, these cliffs and precipices are rarely visited by humans, and the Human Race high command rarely sends people to patrol them.
So, relying on their superior strength, they found a cliff with a huge drop and jumped off.
"Boss, are we heading straight south to the Spirit Resonance Rainforest?"
During their journey, one of the members went up to them and asked out of curiosity.
He wasn't expecting an answer.
This is a secret mission after all; the fewer people who know its details, the better.
As a low-level henchman, all he had to do was follow orders; he didn't need to know the meaning behind them.
To his surprise, the Heaven Realm Awakened leading the group actually answered him.
"No, we also need to stop by Chou City on the way," the team leader said calmly and indifferently, "To distract Chou City."
The members behind him understood instantly.
The distance between Chou City and Spirit Resonance Rainforest is neither far nor long.
The two sides do not border each other and usually keep to themselves.
But what if something serious happens to one of them, such as an earthquake or an attack from the Heaven Realm?
Both sides' intelligence-gathering departments were aware of it.
That's precisely why, if most of the Chou City's attention isn't diverted, their exposure is inevitable.
The members who had asked earlier understood, and seeing that their leader was no longer speaking, they retreated back to the back of the line, satisfied.
This small team of awakened Demon Race Heaven Realm Awakened members quickly disappeared into the dense forest.
On the other side, underground in the Spirit Resonance Rainforest.
The Insect Mother, who was recovering her own Psychic Energy, was rapidly absorbing the crimson stains on the ground.
She had a vague feeling that something was watching her.
But that shouldn't be the case.
His own residence was surrounded by a protective barrier.
Even if someone manages to break in, it will inevitably trigger an alarm or be detected by her senses.
This is probably because the large number of Insect Race deaths affected her mental state, causing her to have delusions.
She could only console herself.
Only after a moment, when she opened her eyes wide and saw that her body was covered in dark Radiant Feathers, did she realize what was happening.
She should trust her intuition.
The Radiant Feathers inserted into her skull opened Wormhole inside her enormous head, transferring her brain.
The remaining body ceased struggling and suddenly "shut down."
The Insect Mother's enormous body was enough to add another batch of Flesh Crystals to Shisui.
While the Radiant Feathers outside were still cleaning up the battlefield, Shisui took out the other two brains he had obtained earlier.
Two high-ranking Beastfolk Insect Race one Insect Mother.
Before he began searching his memories, the Koukaku on Shisui's shoulders grew rapidly.
A sealed space isolated from the outside world is formed.
The Feather Powder were gathered together, and an additional layer was added to secure the space.
Ever since the researcher's soul was attacked by the precautions left by the Dragon King, he has become even more cautious.
It's because most of the things he wants to know seem to be highly confidential.
[Spirit Dream Recall] was invoked, and the three brains were covered one by one.
The first one is the brain of the Beastfolk committed suicide.
Most of it contains military intelligence about the Spirit Resonance Rainforest Beastfolk.
To Shisui's surprise, the person he had killed in Yin City was actually the other party's son.
No wonder he was in such a bad mental state; now I understand.
Unfortunately, this Beastfolk named Hua Guangqi knew very little about eyeballs.
All that is known is that it is the Eye of Madness, Forbidden-Class Weapons issued by the main lineage.
He put down Hua Guangqi's brain and focused his attention on the second brain.
"Hmm? Looks like I'm in luck."
Shisui had guessed that this Beastfolk held a high position, possibly an important officer, but he still underestimated him.
The other party turned out to be the chairman of the Management Committee of the Beastfolk settlement.
This is truly a pleasant surprise.
As the chairman, he naturally possessed more specific information about the Eye of Madness deep within his mind.
For example, the Eye of Madness comes in two forms.
One type is like the one that Shisui saw not long ago.
It is unstable, infectious, proliferates indefinitely, and is extremely lethal.
It was like a plague.
However, this kind of Eye of Madness is more efficient and has a stronger attack power in the process of extracting the host's Soul Energy to launch an attack.
Another type of Eye of Madness consists of pairs of modified eyeballs.
They can be transplanted, and there are already experimental subjects that have been successfully transplanted.
This part of the information is ambiguous and seems to be sealed away, Shisui dares not touch it rashly.
Damaging the brain is a minor issue; if the [Spirit Dream Recall] is also damaged, that would be disastrous.
He had a premonition that there were even more secrets hidden within those sealed memories.
But Shisui didn't intend to delve any deeper.
Distracted, Shisui began to examine the Insect Mother's brain.
The brain structure of the Insect Mother differs significantly from that of other species.
The Insect Mother has a larger brain with more densely packed internal grooves.
There's an additional layer of soul defense on the outer layer.
However, the outer defense was quite weak due to the previous lack of Psychic Energy from the Insect Mother.
Shisui easily succeeded in the intrusion.
