"Brothers, we've arrived! Let's unload!"
"Let's try to make one more trip before His Majesty's men arrive!"
"After we go back this time, all wages will be doubled!"
The businessman loudly announced his decision. Upon hearing that the wages would be doubled, everyone immediately forgot their fatigue. Some carried bags, others unloaded goods, and in an instant, everyone was immersed in enthusiastic work.
Number 15 remained standing there, staring blankly at everything before him, looking as if he couldn't accept reality.
"Is this... really Black Prison Pass?"
Originally built as a military camp, Black Prison Pass is now just an endless plain, and not a single stone brick can be seen on the ground.
Looking around from the fifteenth, all that remained of the Black Prison Pass were four lonely city walls.
"What happened to the group of Soul Beast from Black Prison Pass?"
Xiao Fentian's sharp gaze swept over the scout in front of him, his heart bleeding.
You should know that he brought an army of 200,000 this time with the aim of severely injuring those Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast.
His Majesty even arranged for several Titled Douluo who had just broken through to Level 90 and had not yet absorbed their ninth Soul Ring, just so that the Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast of the Demon Forest could become their Soul Ring.
But now, his scouts are telling him that the Soul Beast has gone back.
Black Prison Pass is now just an empty shell!!!
With his last shred of reason, Xiao Fentian withdrew his murderous intent. "Get out!"
Even though Black Prison Pass is now just an empty shell, this marshal cannot ignore it, as it was once a vital stronghold of the Sun Moon Empire.
Xiao Fentian personally led his men into Black Prison Pass, their feet sinking into the mud.
Xiao Fentian was in a very bad mood.
"Are those Soul Beast so desperate for money that they even took away the floor tiles and the courtyard walls?"
"Marshal, it's probably because the buildings of Black Prison Pass were mixed with crystal powder when they were constructed."
One of the guards knew the history of Black Prison Pass and summarized it in a few words.
When Black Prison Pass was first built, the empire's chief Black Prison Pass designed a formidable pass that could be used in a loop.
Back then, the empire had abundant crystal resources. Every inch of Black Prison Pass was made from materials infused with crystals. In this way, during future great battles, the entire Black Prison Pass could absorb the Soul Power generated during the war, providing a quarter of the Soul Power for the Soul Guidance Cannon.
Xiao Fentian turned around abruptly, his sharp gaze landing on an academy expert. "How many crystals would we need to restore Black Prison Pass?"
The expert adjusted his glasses, muttered something to himself, and, with the utmost professionalism, announced a number.
"Impossible!"
"Absolutely impossible!"
Xiao Fentian retorted loudly, his eyes filled with disbelief.
"Marshal, the construction plans for Black Prison Pass are still in the academy. Every time we had a class, our teachers specifically introduced the design of Black Prison Pass."
"The four city walls are still there; we just need to redeploy the Soul Guidance Cannon."
Xiao Fentian's eyes held a glimmer of hope.
The number the experts mentioned is so large that even if you brought out all the resources of the royal family, let alone Xiao Fentian, it might not be enough.
Since Black Prison Pass was able to hold off the beast tide mainly because of those one hundred Soul Guidance Cannon, he can simply add a few more.
This time, His Majesty ordered him to bring along the Fentian Crystal Core Cannon Platform, a level seven Soul Guidance Cannon capable of threatening even Titled Douluo.
Xiao Fentian's idea was wonderful, but the expert slowly shook his head, shattering Xiao Fentian's fantasy.
The expert's eyes held a hint of pity, and his cold voice brought Xiao Fentian back to reality.
"Marshal, the Soul Guidance Cannon requires the Soul Power of multiple Soul Emperor to fire, while the Fentian Crystal Core Cannon Platform even requires three Soul Sage as its power source to activate."
"With so many key personnel becoming power sources for the Soul Guidance Cannon, who will stop the powerful Soul Beast?"
" Soul Beast are the least valuable, but our Soul Master need to spend much more time to recover their Soul Power."
"I understand."
One hundred Soul Guidance Cannon would be enough to turn one-third of his fighting force into Soul Power filling devices.
Xiao Fentian no longer expected to fight a head-on battle with the Soul Beast of the Evil Demon Forest. Now he only hoped that the 200,000 people he brought could repair Black Prison Pass as soon as possible.
Evil Demon Forest.
The lair of the Evil Eye Tyrant is now bustling with activity, as countless Soul Beast carry crystal materials obtained from Black Prison Pass and throw them into the raging sea of fire below.
For centuries and millennia, countless Soul Beast have appeared, and even the Evil Eye Tyrant could not escape it. At this moment, its tentacles are wrapped with hundreds of tons of materials, and its ferocious, enormous eyeball is now completely numb.
The Evil Eye Tyrant never imagined that he, one of the Ten Great Ferocious Beast and a dominant force on the Sun Moon Continent, would become a laborer!
The key point is that it's free!
Enraged, the Evil Eye Tyrant's tentacles gripped the material, causing it to snap with a crisp sound.
Gu Yuena's eyes, sharp as throwing knives, immediately turned towards them.
The memories of being completely suppressed by its master shrouded the Evil Eye Tyrant's mind. It quickly withdrew its strength, threw the materials into the sea of fire, and continued on the next trip, working diligently to be the most dutiful Ferocious Beast.
Above the sea of fire, Qian Mochen toyed with a golden flame in his hand. Whenever a new batch of materials entered the fire, he flicked his finger, and a wisp of golden flame flew out and merged with the fire in the blink of an eye.
At temperatures of several thousand degrees, components in the material that are not crystals quickly melt, and a batch of freshly produced crystals precipitates out rapidly.
In the valley beside the sea of fire, several tons of crystals have already piled up.
" Mo Chen, the last batch of materials has been completely refined."
Gu Yuena, who had temporarily taken on the role of supervisor, went to Qian Mochen to report the situation.
"That should be enough for the first batch."
Qian Mochen stretched and got off the chair.
He's been watching the fire for the past two weeks, and he's really getting tired.
"The first batch?"
"Are you still planning to continue fleecing the Sun Moon Empire?"
"Sister, I've been keeping an eye on it lately; Black Prison Pass is under renovation again."
Bibi Dong recounted the changes that Black Prison Pass during this period.
"This time, the Sun Moon Empire has deployed another hundred Soul Guidance Cannon, and there's a huge one inside that's rumored to be able to threaten even Titled Douluo."
Gu Yuena glanced at Bibi Dong suspiciously.
Having been on the Sun Moon Continent for so many days, why would Bibi Dong Sun Moon Continent, who has shown no interest in it, actively seek out intelligence?
"I'll tell Evil Eye to lead the team on another trip."
"Sister, I want to go with you!"
Bibi Dong's positive attitude struck Gu Yuena as somewhat unusual.
She squinted at Bibi Dong, Bibi Dong blinked, her eyes revealing no flaw.
"Can."
With Gu Yuena's approval, Bibi Dong went to see the Evil Eye Tyrant with her orders.
