Bay welcomed them in person.
After a seemingly warm and passionate welcome ceremony, Bay left. It was not appropriate for him to cooperate with the investigation directly because of his identity.
Other senior officials from Russia would be representing the cooperation.
Russia was certainly the most anxious party in this regard and did not dare to be negligent.
The two squads also began discussing among themselves once Bay left.
After a brief introduction, Hei Fan, Lan Li, Ming Feng, Liu Jixiu, and Dong Yuhao gathered together.
“Brother Hei, Brother Lan, Brother Ming; I look forward to working with you for the investigation this time.” Liu Jixiu let out a friendly smile and appeared amiable.
Hei Fan also looked at him with a smile and cordiality. “Brother Liu, you are too courteous. I look forward to working with you as well.”
Liu Jixiu nodded and said with the manner of a well-learned ancient scholar, “Brother Hei, I wonder what are your thoughts about the investigation.”
Hei Fan put away his smile and said seriously, “For the investigation, we should focus on finding out the intention of the Deep Abyss, not to exterminate them.
“Hence, the Russia Alliance should take the lead, and we should fully utilize their power for a thorough investigation.
“At the same time, I think that our safety is the utmost priority.
“We have to preserve our strength and await the imminent war.”
“Brother Hei is right. Our China Alliance wholeheartedly agrees. Our mission is to investigate, not to exterminate. We must be clear about our focus.
“Hence, for safety reasons, I think that we should always be together at all times, to prevent the demons of the Deep Abyss from taking us out one by one and resulting in an unnecessary loss.”
“We think the same as well. Then, shall we decide on this?”
“Yes, I agree.”
After a short exchange, Liu Jixiu’s and Hei Fan’s smiles intensified. When they looked at each other, they exchanged a tacit agreement.
Dong Yuhao, Lan Li, and Ming Feng also nodded and did not have any opinions. They officially confirmed the attitudes of one another.
Safety was at the forefront of the mission.
On the second day of reaching Russia’s capital, the investigation commenced with Russia Alliance’s assistance.
Actually, the Russia Alliance had strong intelligence capabilities. What they lacked were elites.
Without elites, even if they discovered some traces, they could not continue their investigation.
The Second Realms could not discover anything at all, and the Third Realms… the few Third Realms they had were not powerful at all.
The Russia Alliance could not bear to risk losing any of them. Hence, they had to rely on China and Wang Hu even for a mere investigation.
They had no other choice.
The group of almost 70 Third Realm elites left the capital of Russia and headed directly towards the East.
At the same time…
In a city in the eastern part of the Russia Alliance…
In a villa, a burly figure with a horn on his head stood. He spoke with a stony voice, “Is there no discovery yet? What exactly happened in that battle?”
In front of him, multiple figures stood reverently. As they heard the question, all of them felt resigned.
“General, we have thoroughly investigated over the past few days, but we still do not have any new discoveries. We cannot find anything about what happened in that battle.
“The Russia Alliance did not release any information about it. We even went online to search and could not find any information.
“The only thing we can confirm is… it was the Tiger King who led that battle. He is responsible for everything,” one of the figures stepped forward and replied resignedly.
“Hmph! That’s all?!” the burly figure said, feeling dissatisfied.
The figures that stood in front of him lowered their heads further and responded with silence.
“That’s all?! How are we supposed to report this to the King?” the burly figure spoke with more displeasure.
After a moment of silence, one of the figures said hesitantly, “General, I don’t think we can find out anything in detail about the battle from the Russia Alliance public.
“We may only find out if we target the senior officials of the Russia Alliance.”
The burly figure frowned and said with uncertainty, “But when we came, the King instructed that we should only investigate the situation of this world and find out detailed information about the battle from before. He instructed us not to make a commotion.”
“Abducting a few senior officials from the Russia Alliance should not constitute as making a commotion.
“Furthermore, General, I think that these two missions are connected.
“Only the senior officials of the Russia Alliance will know about the detailed information of the battle, and only they know more about this world.
“Once we complete the task that the King instructed, we shall leave immediately. As long as a massive fight does not break out, it should not constitute as causing a commotion.”
The burly figure was silent for a moment as he weighed his options. Finally, he said, “Fine, we shall do as you say. Get ready, we shall head to the capital of Russia now.”
“Understood.”
“One more thing. Instruct all the demons collecting information to make a scene to attract the attention of the elites from the Russia Alliance.”
“Yes, our General is wise.”
The multiple figures immediately bowed and abided.
…
The elites from the Deep Abyss and the investigation team started engaging in a chase.
In the Tiger King’s Cave, Wang Hu awaited information. However, he was not worried.
Regardless of what schemes the Deep Abyss had or what they wanted to do, everything depended on capabilities.
Furthermore, with the limits of the world passage, as long as the Demon King of Nowhere did not collaborate with other Demon Kings; he would not be able to do much to Earth.
Wang Hu was confident about this.
There was also his understanding about the combat power of the subordinates of the Demon King of Nowhere that he was able to deploy.
Strictly speaking, even though Wang Hu felt that the Deep Abyss was more terrifying than the Dragon Clan; the threat that the Demon King of Nowhere posed was less than the Golden Dragon King’s.
As for the safety of Hei Fan and the others, Wang Hu was even less worried.
Hei Fan and the others were not to be underestimated. Furthermore, there were many Third Realms from China.
Unless the Demon King of Nowhere made up his mind to launch a full-scale invasion on Earth, it would be hard for the demons to hurt Hei Fan and the others.
As expected, after a couple of days, Wang Hu received a detailed update.
More than 10 Third Realms from the Deep Abyss entered the capital of Russia with malicious intentions.
They were discovered by the Russia Alliance, and a huge fight broke out. The loss incurred by the Russia Alliance was heavy, and an assistant leader even perished.
Luckily, the investigation team arrived on time and defeated the 10-odd Third Realms. Except for one who escaped, the other Third Realms were all killed.
After the chaos, Bay could certainly not hold it in. He became even more worried and immediately phoned Wang Hu and Dong Pingtao.
He expressed that the Deep Abyss was preparing for a large-scale invasion and might invade officially anytime.
Wang Hu and Dong Pingtao could not refute this. The scale of the investigation that the demons carried out was large. Needless to say, they were definitely preparing for a massive invasion.
Both of them expressed that they would take action anytime.
Meanwhile, the investigation team remained in the Russia Alliance and continued to investigate the demons from the Deep Abyss.
A few hours later…
In the vast darkness of the Deep Abyss, a burly figure passed through the world passage.
He immediately yelled: “I am Zhi Wu! I request a meeting with the King immediately!”
It immediately defused the frosty gazes and their murderous intent that looked over.
Not long after, the burly Zhi Wu arrived at the palace of the Demon King of Nowhere. He immediately knelt down and greeted: “Greetings to my lord.”
“How did it go?” atop a magnificent black throne, the Demon King of Nowhere said imposingly.
Hesitation flashed across Zhi Wu’s eyes, and he said reverently, “My lord, we were discovered by the Russia Alliance. There were a total of 45 Third Realms who infiltrated into the Earth this time.
“12 of us went to the capital of Russia. After we were discovered, only I managed to escape being killed and returned to report to you, my King.”
The Demon King of Nowhere’s expression remained unchanged. However, the air around him became more oppressive.
Zhi Wu understood. He immediately said, “When we arrived at the capital of Russia, we captured one of their senior officials and found out a lot of information. Please receive it, my lord.”
As he said, a chunk of information that was wrapped with the power of divine senses traveled towards the Demon King of Nowhere.
The Demon King of Nowhere’s eyes brightened, and he accepted the information.
After a few seconds, joy was visible on his face. After he finished looking through the information, he even laughed out loud, and his elation could not be hidden.
“Hahahaha!
“Good, good, good! Awesome, awesome! What an Earth!
“This was the Chosen Place for our Deep Abyss! It’s an immense opportunity for me, the Demon King of Nowhere! This is a blessing from the Will of Deep Abyss!
“Zhi Wu, you have done a good job.”
The eyes of the Demon King of Nowhere glowed with immense joy, surprise, shock, ambition, and greed.
Zhi Wu lowered his head even further. However, worry filled his mind.
“So many worlds, so many worlds! So, so…”
The Demon King of Nowhere continued to mutter to himself, and he even stood up from the throne to walk in circles.
The euphoria made him feel at a loss of what to do. His body was even shaking.
He was shaking from excitement.
Hence, he did not notice Zhi Wu’s worry at all, and he muttered ambitious sentences one after another to himself.
He was ready to take just one step and ascend to become the strongest creature in the universe.
After a while, he finally calmed down, and determination was visible on his face.
“I am determined to conquer Earth no matter what price I have to pay.
“The numerous alternate worlds that were connected to Earth will also be mine!
“Those dragons were of an impure bloodline; they are nothing to be feared. China and the Tiger King? Hmph! They are just mere ants.
“I may have to be careful about the Holy Tribunal of the Heavenly Eye, but they can’t stop me.
“As long as I am quick enough to offer those worlds to the noble Deep Abyss, I might even reach the Fifth Realm or even the Sixth Realm.
“Hahahaha!”
His exhilarated laughter rang throughout the hall again.
Zhi Wu refused to raise his head. He did not want to hear what was said, but he did not have a choice and was made to hear it. Hence, he could only show his reverence and pretend that he did not hear a thing.
“Oh, right!” After laughing for a while, the Demon King of Nowhere appeared to have thought of something else, and he looked towards Zhi Wu. With a commanding voice, he said, “I asked you to investigate the battle. What have you found?”
As he spoke, his eyes looked at Zhi Wu with terrifying ruthlessness.
He could never forget the intense hatred that he felt when his clone was destroyed.
It was a kind of hatred that gave birth to a feud that would not be resolved until one of them died. It was a kind that was imprinted on his soul, impossible to erase.
He could not forget about the hatred even during the period of recuperation.
Zhi Wu’s body trembled unwittingly, and the lowered eyes were filled with hesitation.
He seemed to be uncertain whether he should say it or not.
The Demon King of Nowhere was powerful, and he easily noticed Zhi Wu’s abnormal behavior. His voice turned cold, and he said, “Zhi Wu, why are you hesitant? Don’t you know what will happen if you lie to me?”
Zhi Wu’s body trembled again, and he immediately said reverently and fearfully, “I do not dare to lie to my lord.”
“Then, speak.” The Demon King of Nowhere paused and seemed to think of something else. He repressed some of his savageness and said with a calmer voice:
“No matter what, you have made a huge contribution. As long as you do not lie to me, I will not punish you.”
Zhi Wu felt slightly at ease, and he cautiously said, “My lord, I did find out some things about the battle. My lord, your clone was destroyed by the number-one elite on Earth, the Tiger King.
Ruthlessness flashed across the eyes of the Demon King of Nowhere, and he said with a cold voice, “Tiger King, Di Zun… hmph! He’s just a mere Third Realm, and he dares to call himself Di Zun? Obnoxious thing!
“How did he destroy it?”
Zhi Wu opened his mouth but could not bring himself to say it.
The Demon King of Nowhere was no fool, and he naturally noticed some things from the way Zhi Wu behaved. He let out a gentle smile and appeared nonchalant. “Did he humiliate my clone?”
“Yes,” Zhi Wu lowered his head and said.
Savageness filled the Demon King of Nowhere’s heart, but his tone remained unchanged, “Speak. How did he humiliate my clone?”
“My lord, I don’t dare to say it,” Zhi Wu spoke with fear.
“Hmph!” The Demon King of Nowhere became impatient and said irritably: “You have been loyal to me and did me an enormous service. As long as you do not lie to me, I will not penalize you.”
“Yes,” Zhi Wu responded. He thought for a moment and let the Demon King of Nowhere see for himself using the same method that Zhi Wu relayed the information.
The Demon King of Nowhere frowned and looked.
The clear image appeared in his vision.
Immediately after, his brows furrowed together, and murderous intent filled the air.
He saw that his clone was slapped and thrown out in front of everyone.
In the next moment—boom!
His rage suddenly erupted like a furious volcano.
It was because he was slapped again in front of everyone and even got trampled.
Intense hatred and murderous intent filled the hall, and he almost lost control of his vast power which threatened to destroy everything.
After a few seconds, suddenly…
“Ahh! Tiger King, Di Zun! I swear I will kill you! I will kill you!”
His yell blasted, and the entire hall quaked uncontrollably and seemed to be on the verge of collapse.
Zhi Wu, who remained on his knees, groveled on the ground and grew filled with fright.
I made a meritorious contribution… the King wouldn’t kill me, right?
He consoled himself while still feeling frightened. After a moment, he regretted it. He knew that the King was very prideful, and he shouldn’t have come back to the Deep Abyss.
After several minutes, the Demon King of Nowhere—who had been breathing heavily and whose eyes were bloodshot—finally regained some composure. He stared coldly at Zhi Wu and said savagely, “Did you spread any of this?”
“My lord, I certainly do not dare. I did not divulge anything,” Zhi Wu immediately yelled.
“Good.” The Demon King of Nowhere’s voice was cold. “Considering that you did me an enormous service and had been loyal to me, I shall bestow you a reward.”
Zhi Wu breathed a sigh of relief; he was relieved that he wouldn’t be killed.
In the blink of an eye, a dark beam shot out from the huge horn atop the Demon King of Nowhere’s head, and it struck Zhi Wu’s body. The impact immediately caused Zhi Wu’s body and soul to disintegrate into dust.
The Demon King of Nowhere appeared ruthless and chagrined.
“Hmph! Because you know about it, I have to let you die quicker.”
