Heroes' Prison

Chapter 840 - 794 Desolate Demon Lands

"Thunder Guard Bracers?" The student basketball fan was startled upon hearing those four words, immediately stopping the rotation of the iron ball in his hand. He said, "Of course I’ve heard of them. These were once a piece of thunder Epic Equipment in our Warrior Alliance, and they were very famous within our alliance."

"A piece of equipment from the past?" Huang Yi was taken aback, repeating the phrase, "So it’s no longer with the Warrior Alliance?"

The student basketball fan nodded, saying, "That’s right! Thunder Guard Bracers are rare thunder equipment, more precious than other Magic Attribute equipment. I really want that epic equipment. But I couldn’t find it in the equipment warehouse of the Warrior Alliance. After looking into the history of the alliance, I found out that the equipment has been split into two parts. The Thunder Left Hand was snatched away by a Heavenly Domain expert named Leizes from Hero’s Continent. As for the Thunderous Right Hand, it fell into the hands of the Demon Race Legion during an invasion by the King of Greed. Our Warrior Alliance experts have sensed it; that piece of equipment is currently in the Desolate Demon Lands."

"Desolate Demon Lands? What’s that place like?" Huang Yi continued to ask.

The student basketball fan kept spinning the iron ball in his hand and said slowly, "The Desolate Demon Lands is a region in the Central Continent occupied by the Demon Clan. The place is filled with demons, and deeper inside, there’s a Demon King’s Gate connecting to the world where the Seven Demon Kings reside."

Huang Yi frowned immediately, questioning, "Aren’t experts from Oskan Royal Academy going to eliminate that place?"

"You’ve asked me so many questions in a row, now it’s my turn to ask you something, right?" The student basketball fan did not rush to answer Huang Yi but instead looked at him with interest, teasingly saying, "The Thunder Left Hand should be in the hands of the God of Slaughter, who had displayed the Storm of Thunder Clouds and Body of Lightning and Thunder skills, which match the Thunder Left Hand attributes recorded in our Warrior Alliance. There’s no mistake about that. You’ve shown so much concern for Thunder Guard Bracers. Are you related to the God of Slaughter? Or are you actually the God of Slaughter? You’re asking for my help while hiding your identity, that’s not fair! I like to be honest in friendships, no room for deception." After finishing, he fixed his gaze intently on Huang Yi.

Since Huang Yi decided to seek help from the Warrior Alliance, he naturally had no intention of hiding his identity. He nodded directly, "Yes! I am Instakill. I once found Leizes’s treasure and obtained the Thunder Left Hand." He then revealed the Thunder Left Hand’s equipment brilliance; his left arm instantly sparkled with crackling electric light, arcs flashing and exuding a powerful aura.

"So it’s really you!" The student basketball fan looked at the appearance of the Thunder Guard Bracers and couldn’t help but reassess Huang Yi.

At this moment, Huang Yi wasn’t using his original appearance, but with his identity, no matter what appearance he used, it was enough to make the student basketball fan take him seriously.

The student basketball fan tossed the iron ball in his hand and smiled, "God of Slaughter, you’re a Super-First Master that I quite admire. I can understand your desire for the Thunderous Right Hand, but I still advise you to let go of this idea. It’s for your own good."

"Why?" Huang Yi asked, re-concealing the equipment brilliance of the Thunder Left Hand.

"Didn’t I just say? The Thunderous Right Hand is now in the Desolate Demon Lands!" The student basketball fan spoke, his expression becoming serious, "That Desolate Demon Lands has a super strong Formation released by the Seven Demon Kings together, forming a small world of its own. It’s constantly strengthened by the Seven Demon Kings’ mana, extremely solid, preventing experts above the Heavenly Domain Level from entering. Five years ago, the only four demigods in The Second World tried to destroy the grand formation laid by the Seven Demon Kings in the Desolate Demon Lands, but even the four working together failed, and they could only give up. That Desolate Demon Lands is the Demon Clan’s paradise. Why would you go in there to throw your life away?"

Huang Yi thought for a while, rubbing his chin, and said, "You just said that the formation only prevents those above the Heavenly Domain Level from entering, so shouldn’t we, at the Holy Domain Rank, be able to go in?"

"Are you really so stubborn?" The student basketball fan looked at Huang Yi, somewhat surprised by his persistence, "That place is extremely dangerous. If you must go, wait until you’re at the Top-level Holy Domain to go! You’re currently in a cycle of Reincarnation; if you die and have to Reincarnate again, you would be completely out of the Super-First Master realm."

"I have my own measures!" Huang Yi said, taking out one of his business cards and giving it to the student basketball fan, "Thank you for telling me all this information. Here’s my card; you can find me if you need help in the future."

"No problem at all!" The student basketball fan also took out his business card and exchanged it with Huang Yi, and they added each other as friends.

"God of Slaughter, we’re about to have class, next time I’ll buy you a drink when we’re free!" The student basketball fan said farewell and immediately turned towards the classroom.

Huang Yi also turned to leave. He decided to go to the library of Oskan Royal Academy to look up some data about the Desolate Demon Lands and plan to set off in a few days.

Although the student basketball fan described it as extremely dangerous, such danger is only for ordinary people. But he has a unique life-saving method, which is to transform into the Eyeless Demon!

The Eyeless Demon is a common demon species. Huang Yi had initially chosen this species for Evolution, considering the convenience for future operations on Demon Clan territories. Later, he even entered the Demon King’s Gate personally in Eyeless Demon form, reaching the space where the Seven Demon Kings reside, without being discovered. This means that when he transforms into an Eyeless Demon, it’s difficult for the Demon Clan to recognize him.

Shortly after, Huang Yi arrived at the library of Oskan Royal Academy.

The library of Oskan Royal Academy is the richest in knowledge throughout The Second World, with as many as ninety-nine floors, like a tower reaching into the sky with a sea of books inside and can be called the world of books.

The library includes various books, and even some ancient texts that have vanished from the outside world can be found here, including some unknown secrets.

Of course, ordinary students cannot access those classified materials and can only read the regular books. However, Huang Yi has no such restrictions; he is one of the key students trained at Oskan Royal Academy and can access all the materials.

At this time, the first floor of the library was bustling with students, all studying knowledge, leaving no place to sit.

Huang Yi made his way through the crowded crowd and found the librarian. After inquiring, he immediately went to the library’s ninetieth floor.

The information about the Desolate Demon Lands is stored there.

The entry threshold for this floor is quite high, with very few students allowed access. After Huang Yi went up, all he saw were rows of bookshelves, with no one else around, just a silent tranquility.

Huang Yi searched according to book classification markers and, after about ten minutes, finally found some introduction books about the Desolate Demon Lands and immediately started reading.

Time gradually passed, and in the quiet library, it felt like time itself stood still, just endless history accumulating there.

"Tap Tap Tap!" Suddenly Huang Yi heard faint footsteps not far from him.

He couldn’t help but feel strange as this was the ninetieth floor of the library, and few students were allowed access here. Yet he unexpectedly encountered one.

He immediately looked up in the direction from which the sound was coming.

Not far from him, in front of a row of bookshelves, a man had his back turned towards him, going through books on the shelf.

This man looked to be in his early twenties, with a thin build and a weak look, seeming vaguely familiar.

At this moment, the man turned around, showing his face.

"Poet!" At that moment, a name burst out from Huang Yi’s heart, he finally recognized this person!

This man was the Poet, whom he hadn’t seen in a while. The last time they met was when the Poet gave him the plans for the Oceanic Airship, which was last winter.

Huang Yi quickly reverted to his original appearance and walked towards the Poet.

This time, the Poet finally heard the footsteps, turned suspiciously, and immediately saw Huang Yi,

"God of Slaughter! What a surprise to see you!" The Poet closed the book in his hand and greeted Huang Yi.

"I just arrived at the Central Continent too." Huang Yi said, coming to the Poet’s side, "Are you also studying at Oskan Royal Academy?"

The Poet nodded and smiled, "Yes! As a Bard, I love to travel everywhere. Oskan Royal Academy is the academic center of The Second World. The library here is the most abundant in collection, which is an unparalleled temptation for a history fellow like me." Speaking of which, he asked about Huang Yi’s recent happenings: "It’s been a while since we met, what have you been busy with lately?"

"I’ve been busy improving my strength! Recruiting all sorts of experts for my Hero Legion, searching for Epic Equipment to enhance my power. An apocalypse is looming, and there’s not much time left. I have to take advantage of this last bit of peace to drastically enhance our strength." Huang Yi said, studying the Poet for a moment, "How about it, interested in joining my Hero Legion? You have a deep understanding of the various powers in The Second World and would be most suited as a strategist."

"Apocalypse?" The Poet queried, hearing Huang Yi’s solemn tone, "What kind of apocalypse requires someone of your calibre to take it so seriously?"

"I am not entirely sure, but I suspect it has to do with the Seven Demon Kings," Huang Yi pondered, "The only certainty I have is that this apocalypse will be extremely rapid, affecting the entire Second World, and with such power, the Seven Demon Kings are the only ones that come to mind. Additionally, during this calamity, Hero’s Continent will be hit first. If we fail to hold it, the whole continent faces annihilation. Right now, it’s the calm before the storm, and I desperately need all kinds of experts to help! Poet, I really hope you join our legion." After saying, Huang Yi earnestly stared into the Poet’s eyes.

"I don’t have much combat power. Bringing me in will be of very limited effect." The Poet shook his head, saying: "However, I can introduce you to someone. If you manage to recruit him, it would greatly enhance the strength of the Hero Legion."

"Oh? Who might that be?"

"Sharp Sword."
