Heroes' Prison

Chapter 896 - 848: Frozen Lemongrass

However, transforming into the form of the Eyeless Demon here was somewhat inconvenient, so he had to temporarily store away the storage ring of the Fallen Messenger.

Next, he, along with Dragon Spike and Yang Yuheng, found the corpse of the Fallen Messenger and began to head back to the Hero Legion’s base camp. The soul of the Fallen Messenger was absorbed by Dragon Spike to become the soul spirit of his War Soul.

Huang Yi turned to look at Dragon Spike and said, "Dragon Spike, with you here, our Hero Legion will usher in a powerful moment! Next, lead our Hero Legion to attack the areas occupied by the Invading Army. This national war is nearing its concluding phase. We must reclaim all the lost lands! Let’s head back now to discuss future battle plans with Dao Feng and the Gentleman."

"Alright!" Dragon Spike nodded.

...

Meanwhile, on the Central Continent, Oskan Royal Academy.

Huang Yi turned to look at Si Chengcheng beside him and expressed gratitude: "Now that Dragon Spike has ascended to the Heavenly Realm, becoming the world’s top expert, our danger has been averted. Thank you for your help."

"No need to thank me. If Brother Long ever needs help in the future, please be sure to let me know!" Si Chengcheng bit her lip and twirled a strand of hair with her delicate fingers, speaking with a tone of delight.

"Little Sister Chenchen!" At this moment, a female voice sounded from outside the classroom.

Huang Yi turned his head and immediately saw a woman in her twenties walk in from outside the door. She was older than Si Chengcheng, graceful and beautiful, exuding the aura of an elder sister.

"Sister Ning Mengcao." Si Chengcheng looked at the woman and immediately lowered her head, shyly calling out, her face blushing down to her neck, appearing somewhat bashful.

Huang Yi was stunned; Si Chengcheng, facing this girl, actually showed a bashful expression as if she were facing a boy. What exactly was the relationship between them?

The woman walked straight to Si Chengcheng’s side, grabbed her hand, and said, "Little Sister, come hunt the Demon Clan with me tonight! I’m leading my Phoenix Society to purge the Desolate Demon Lands. There’ll be some top-tier demon cores to collect."

Upon hearing the words ’Phoenix Society,’ Huang Yi couldn’t help but take another look at the woman.

The Phoenix Society is a renowned player organization at Oskan Royal Academy. Most of its members are top students from various classes, and all of them are girls. They are all beautiful and strong, never letting the men overtake them. At Oskan Royal Academy, no player dared to provoke them.

The president of the Phoenix Society, named Frozen Lemongrass, hails from the large Southeast Asian country of Bangladesh and has Chinese ancestry. She’s a very capable woman. Over three years ago, when she first entered The Second World, she reincarnated into the Central Continent and quickly became the number one student at Oskan Royal Academy. She has been there for three years, making her a veteran student player.

A year ago, she joined the council at Oskan Royal Academy, becoming a council member involved in some of the academy’s administrative matters. The council comprised 475 members from various forces who vote on major issues. The council speaker is the fourth most important figure at the academy, only behind the principal and two vice principals.

Frozen Lemongrass being one of the 475 council members is not a status that ordinary students can enjoy.

Recently, she led the Phoenix Society and captured the first demon core above Level 190 among players in the Desolate Demon Lands, causing a global sensation.

However, she hasn’t been nominated for any awards in the past three annual events and is still considered a newcomer.

Over the past few months, she had a major fortuitous encounter that rapidly enhanced her strength, thrusting her into the global player’s spotlight.

The Poet once predicted that Frozen Lemongrass could be a strong contender for the Best Newcomer Award at the next annual event.

Just now, Si Chengcheng called this woman "Sister Ning Mengcao," so this woman is very likely the legendary president of the Phoenix Society—Frozen Lemongrass!

"I’ve already got two pieces of top-tier demon core last time, so I won’t go this time!" Si Chengcheng said evasively, pulling her hand away from Frozen Lemongrass’s grasp.

"No need to be so formal between us," Frozen Lemongrass said ambiguously, pinching Si Chengcheng’s chin, lifting her head with an invasive gaze, and said, "After this, I’m heading overseas to a mysterious island to handle some important matters, and won’t be back for a while, so please accompany me tonight."

"No need for that!" Si Chengcheng turned her head aside, biting her lip, and said awkwardly.

"Why are you pushing away? Are you still thinking about your Brother Long?" Frozen Lemongrass’s voice suddenly turned cold, with an inherent authority.

"No... Let’s talk outside!" Feeling embarrassed to discuss this in front of Huang Yi, Si Chengcheng quickly pulled Frozen Lemongrass away, hurriedly leaving the classroom.

Huang Yi watched the retreating figures of Si Chengcheng and Frozen Lemongrass and felt a tremor within. He hadn’t expected there to be such an ambiguous relationship between Frozen Lemongrass and Si Chengcheng.

Fortunately, he had seen the world and witnessed various strange things. His mood quickly stabilized, and he left the classroom immediately.

Soon, the entire classroom was left with only FeatherWorld still there, diligently studying with his head down.

After leaving the classroom, Huang Yi headed to the Hero Hall, teleported to the secret realm, and continued flying west with Molei’s child, Gibit, in search of Holy Giant Dragon Georgia.

While Huang Yi was riding Little Dragon, he flipped his palm to take out an item, which turned out to be the storage ring of the Fallen Messenger. In this uninhabited secret realm, he found it convenient to transform into the form of the Eyeless Demon and could open this storage ring for a look.

His body shook, and he immediately switched to the form of the Eyeless Demon, exuding pure dark breath from his body.

The next moment, he attempted to open the storage ring.

Sure enough, after transforming into the Eyeless Demon form, the storage ring no longer resisted him and was smoothly opened.

The storage ring was filled with a dazzling array of items, including various forging materials, hundreds of Holy Crystal Stones, Demon Clan artifacts, gold coin wealth, etc. Huang Yi carefully searched and found three notable items.

The first item was the Stone Axe of the Fallen Messenger, a Demon Clan weapon of Legendary level, but it was far inferior to Huang Yi’s weapon.

The second item was a blue crystal, clear and extraordinary, like a blue diamond, exuding a noble aura.

"Soul Crystal!" Huang Yi immediately recognized it. He had several such crystals, but their purpose remained a mystery, with no research done at Oskan Royal Academy. However, its origins are not simple: obtained either by breaking a world record or by securing a world-first kill, now the ring of the Fallen Messenger contained one too. All its appearances suggest it is not an ordinary item.

Next, Huang Yi took out the third item. It was a dark stone, slightly cool, similar to an ordinary stone.

A long time ago, when Huang Yi first met the Fallen Messenger, the Fallen Messenger had given him a stone just like this.

The two stones are a pair, known as Induction Stones, capable of sensing the aura of Celestial Realm Experts.

At the time, the Fallen Messenger gave Huang Yi the stone to show goodwill from the Demon Clan, to protect him. If any Celestial Realm Expert were to hunt him, he could use the stone to contact the Fallen Messenger, who would appear instantly to protect him.

However, Huang Yi always remained wary of the Seven Archdemons, and after receiving the Induction Stone, he had never summoned the Fallen Messenger.

No matter how well the Seven Archdemons treated him, their ultimate goal was to recruit him. To join them required swearing loyalty and signing a contract.

But doing so would make Divine Enthronement impossible, as a god cannot become someone’s Contracted Servant. Just like Bloodhoof the Ascendant, who was once a servant to the Fire God, but struggled to obtain a drop of Pact of Water to wash away the disgrace and ultimately achieve Divine Enthronement.

Joining the Seven Archdemons, though it would offer a surge in power, would cap his accomplishments at the Demigod Realm. Even if he could become the Eighth Great Demon King, and appear equal to the Seven, he wouldn’t escape being a servant to King of Hell - Yama.

Huang Yi’s ambitions were great. He aimed for Divine Enthronement and naturally wouldn’t join the Seven Archdemons. However, he and the Seven Archdemons were both of demonic attributes, and after Divine Enthronement, would all go to the Demon Realm.

This Induction Stone was arguably what Huang Yi needed most, as his true body and incarnation were in separate locations. His true body was on the Central Continent and would require a lengthy journey to return to Hero’s Continent, unless he ascended to the Heavenly Realm.

But with this Induction Stone, he could have his true body immediately teleport to his incarnation on Hero’s Continent!

Huang Yi put away the Induction Stone, feeling a surge of eager anticipation.

Now, everything was ready, except for completing the Hero Trial. Once that was done, he could teleport back to Hero’s Continent and resolve the prolonged national war.

Time flew by quickly, and more than a week had passed in the blink of an eye.

Huang Yi’s Level had already recovered to over 160, entering the final phase of Reincarnation.

——

This is the last update for tonight. The following plot is very important. The trial is ending, Reincarnation is ending, the national war is ending, a group of important figures will appear, and a lot of long-buried foreshadowing will be revealed, reaching the final stage. Various bright and dark lines, subplots, and the main plot will intertwine, forming the peak of a major storyline. I dare not write it rashly, so let me ponder a bit more.

The next part of this plot spans about a hundred thousand words. Everything written during the Reincarnation period was in preparation for these hundred thousand words. I strive to make it exciting.
