Mars, this scarlet planet that had been silent for hundreds of millions of years in the universe, welcomed a special "visitor" today.
Above the deathly still Red Wasteland, space violently distorted as if a stone had been thrown into a water surface, and a huge wormhole emitting a dark blue radiance suddenly opened.
Under the precise calculations of Karl's all-powerful Great Clock, a colossal building, entirely black, with a ferocious shape, like a Floating Fortress, slowly emerged from the wormhole.
Demon One!
As it descended, the scarlet sand was pushed aside by an invisible force field. Once it was completely stabilized on the Martian surface, it slowly landed, covering the black metal shell with a thin layer of Red Frost.
"Bitch!"
A curse sounded particularly abrupt in the thin Martian atmosphere.
Morgana looked at the barren, deathly still Red World before her, her mood was terrible!
The Demon Seeds she had painstakingly planted on Earth, finally waited for the right Timing, personally descended to revive, and was about to possess a brand new Demon Legion, but what happened?
They were uprooted along with the land just as they sprouted! Almost annihilated!
And now, she couldn't even get revenge.
Firstly, the strength of that man named Si Yao was too weird.
Morgana still couldn't figure out the principle behind that guy's "Colorless Realm" and "Dizang Realm" divine powers. Without understanding the principle, she couldn't devise a countermeasure.
Not to mention last night, she had also observed the battle at Liangshan through the Super Seminary's perspective.
The Combat Power displayed by Si Yao, and the unheard-of techniques he mastered, clearly placed him above her, at least in terms of Space Technology.
She wasn't even sure how many trump cards that guy still had hidden, or what the upper limit of his strength was.
The most crucial point was that he was now mixed in with those Angel bitches! If she rashly made a move, it would be equivalent to forcing Si Yao and the Angels to join forces! At that time, let alone revenge, whether she could make a Full Body Retreat from Earth herself was a problem!
Moreover, according to the information she had stolen from the Super Seminary Database, that guy seemed to have an intricate connection with the so-called "Pangu Civilization" that Karl had been researching.
This made her have to be more cautious.
If Si Yao was truly a Reviver of the Pangu Civilization from hundreds of millions of years ago, the technology he possessed would definitely surpass their current era.
Facing an enemy whose technological level might have a generational gap, any rash move could be suicidal.
But at the same time, she couldn't help but suspect if this was Karl, that pervert, playing tricks behind the scenes? Deliberately creating such an "Old God" to disrupt the situation, in order to achieve some of his unspeakable goals?
But she couldn't directly confront Karl to question him.
After all, what if he really was an Old Fossil from the Pangu Civilization? Wouldn't asking him expose her own ignorance and trump cards?
Although she had a cooperative relationship with Karl, their attitudes towards the Void were completely different.
That grandson Karl was wholeheartedly thinking of welcoming the so-called "Ultimate Fear" and letting the Void descend.
As for her, she just wanted to be free and unrestrained, engage in decadence and freedom, and by the way, defeat Kaisha, that bitch.
She instinctively rejected and was wary of the Void, something unknown and full of destructive aura.
Who knew what that damn Void would do after it descended? Perhaps even she, the Demon Queen, would be finished!
Thinking of this, Morgana irritably ran her hands through her hair, messing up her originally exquisite hairstyle.
"Damn it, troublesome!"
Just as Morgana was feeling annoyed, a completely black demon walked out from behind her. It was one of her most powerful warriors, A Tai.
"Queen, your subordinate believes that perhaps... we should try a different approach to contact that Si Yao."
Morgana suddenly turned around, her eyes almost spitting fire: "Contact? A Tai! Are you out of your mind?! He just destroyed the army we painstakingly revived! You want me to go contact him now?!"
"Yes, they can be revived! But it requires time! It requires energy! Do you know what this means? This means we will be in a troop vacuum for a long time to come!"
Facing the Queen's rage, A Tai did not flinch, maintaining his composure: "Queen, precisely because of this, we cannot afford to provoke such an unknown and powerful enemy again."
He paused and raised a crucial observation: "Moreover, Queen... don't you find it strange? Since the other party had the ability to instantly wipe out the entire army, why did they only kill them on a physical level and not Completely Destroy their Dark Data? With the technology he displayed, this wouldn't be difficult to achieve."
"This might indicate..." A Tai looked up, his gaze sincere, "that the other party does not have true, irreconcilable hostility towards us demons."
Morgana fell silent.
She had indeed thought of this. This was precisely what made her feel conflicted and stifled.
If Si Yao had truly destroyed all the Dark Data of the demons, then she would absolutely not hesitate now, even if it meant suffering heavy losses, she would go to Earth to fight that guy.
But the other party had shown mercy.
Combined with the information she obtained from the Super Seminary, Si Yao's personality was indeed very self-centered, seemingly unconcerned with so-called factions and Order, completely different from those "righteous to the head" Angel bitches.
That guy was not a warm-hearted person.
If it were any other time, she wouldn't mind spending some time to contact, or even win over, such a powerful and Neutral god.
But the problem was, the Timing was wrong!
Si Yao had just destroyed her Demon Legion, and she was turning around to grovel at his door, offering gifts and smiling apologetically?
Didn't Morgana have any dignity?!
As if seeing through the Queen's concerns, A Tai spoke again, his tone even more earnest: "Queen, I know this makes you feel Humiliation. But, at this critical juncture, face... perhaps can truly be put aside for now."
"Those Angel bitches are definitely trying every means to contact and win over Si Yao! Have you considered, if they really manage to win Si Yao over, then we demons... will truly be finished!"
A Tai's voice grew heavy, "With the strength Si Yao has displayed, and the bizarre techniques he masters, that person is very likely a Main God on the same level as Holy Keisha! We demons have already suffered such heavy losses just fighting the Angel civilization, if we were to provoke another unfathomable and powerful Old God... Queen, we demons... might be completely finished!"
As A Tai's words fell, the few remaining demons present also knelt on one knee, echoing in unison.
"A Tai is right! Queen!"
"Queen, our legions did not experience true, complete annihilation. Between us and that Si Yao, it's not yet a mortal enmity!"
"Winning him over is the best strategy! At least, we absolutely cannot let him ally with the Angels against us!"
Morgana surveyed her remaining few loyal subordinates, listening to their heartfelt advice. The rage in her heart was gradually replaced by icy reason.
She knew they were all right.
The future of the demons was far more important than her personal pride.
After hesitating, her clenched fist slowly loosened, and she waved her hand irritably.
"Alright, alright! All of you, get up!"
Morgana took a deep breath, her gaze drifting towards the Azure Planet in the depths of the universe, her expression complex and unreadable.
"Contact... no rush. I'll go observe him personally first, see what kind of character that guy... really is."
On the Moon Back, inside Heavenly Base Four.
After Zhi Xin brought back the reply, "Whether to act depends on her, not me," He Xi remained silent in the Main Control Room for a long time.
Finally, she took a deep breath, stood up from the comfortable Main Control Chair, a hint of determination flashing in her eyes.
"I'll go myself."
She set out alone. After all, the upcoming matters might involve sensitive topics concerning the Pangu Civilization, Void Technology, and even the internal affairs of the Angel Civilization. These were not things a junior like Zhi Xin was suitable to participate in.
An almost imperceptible streak of light pierced the silent universe, silently descending on the outskirts of Earth.
He Xi, alone, arrived outside the luxurious villa that seemed incongruous with its surroundings. She organized her thoughts, raised her hand, and gently knocked on the door.
"Come in."
A plain voice echoed directly in her mind, and the villa's door slid open silently.
He Xi stepped into the living room and immediately saw the Silver-haired Man sitting on the sofa, as if he had been waiting for a long time.
This Heavenly Base King, who had lived for tens of thousands of years, witnessed the rise and fall of countless civilizations, and personally forged the glory of Angel technology, felt an unusually complex emotion at this moment.
She didn't know how long this man, who looked far too young, had lived, or from which forgotten corner of time he had crawled out, this Old Fossil.
An invisible pressure permeated the air. Neither of them spoke, merely scrutinizing each other.
After a long silence, He Xi broke the quiet first. She nodded slightly and calmly introduced herself, "Heavenly Base King, He Xi."
Then, she looked directly into Si Yao's Ice Blue Eyes and asked one of the core questions of her visit: "What is your purpose for coming here?"
Si Yao picked up the teacup in front of him, gently blew on the steam, and replied nonchalantly, "No purpose. I woke up and came to see this world."
He paused, then added a sentence that made He Xi's heart skip a beat: "If it doesn't work out, start over."
He Xi's pupils contracted slightly. She keenly caught the chilling meaning hidden behind that sentence. "Start over? What do you mean?"
Si Yao didn't answer her question, instead throwing the topic back, "What did you come for?"
Seeing that he was unwilling to elaborate, He Xi didn't press further. She got straight to the point, stating her purpose: "The Silver Blade."
"I need to reclaim the Silver Blade you took from Sumali."
Of course, she knew a direct demand was unlikely. With a casual wave of her hand, the space beside her rippled, and a long sword with an Ancient and Elegant Shape, exuding the unique luster of Dark Silver, materialized out of thin air.
"Ordinary Silver weapons, without the addition of Dark Iron Element, only possess immense destructive power," He Xi explained. "But this one is a Dark Silver weapon. By adding Dark Iron Element into the Silver Material, its controllability becomes extremely high, and it can store energy."
"In terms of value," she looked at Si Yao, "it far surpasses that broken throwing knife in your hand."
However, facing this sincere "trade," Si Yao directly refused.
"No need. That throwing knife is gone."
