Apocalypse: Master of Soul Beasts

”So, this is that Dimensional Maze, right?”

Looking at the lush grass around him, Tang Haofei spoke to Wen Yu beside him. Wen Yu merely nodded lightly and took out a watch from his pocket, tossing it to Tang Haofei.

After the meeting concluded, the main military force departed first, while Lin Haifeng left Wen Yu and Tang Haofei behind to discuss in detail the potential strategies the Demon Tribe could use against the two strongest individuals on this side.

This discussion took quite a bit of time, and it wasn’t until 7:30 Beijing time that the meeting concluded. Wen Yu and Tang Haofei immediately set out for the battlefield.

They transported directly from the Eternal Sky City’s transmission channel to the area near Mount Kosciuszko on the Australian Continent. A series of war arrangements followed until moments ago, watching the spatial cracks in the sky opened by the Boundary Cracking Device grow larger. This signaled the arrival of Tang Haofei’s and Wen Yu’s mission.

To dismantle the bizarrely changing nuisance of the Dimensional Maze—a terrifying, bloody meat grinder for conventional armies, mutant beasts, and even Sequence-class experts, but not considered a major problem for Wen Yu and Tang Haofei.

This led to the scene just observed from outside—the two streaks of meteor.

The current time is eleven o’clock Australian time, with a three-hour time difference between Yanjing and Sydney. Yes, that’s what Tang Haofei saw as the precise time on the watch.

...

”The air here is not bad, and the environment is nice. The idea of crafting space-type tools modeled after the treasure land is a great thought. Maybe I should get the military scientists to research this and create my short-stay palace. It seems like a good idea.”

Tang Haofei leisurely commented on everything encountered in the Dimensional Space, strolling through the vast grasslands, seemingly quite in the mood—yet, it’s wartime, and Tang Haofei’s current state could definitely be seen as delaying the war opportunity.

Wen Yu, on the other hand, didn’t find this scene unusual, merely following behind Tang Haofei silently.

Until they reached the first Spatial Transfer Point.

With the flash of transfer light, in an instant, Tang Haofei and Wen Yu appeared on a snow-covered icefield.

”Shh!”

The pure white icefield brought joy to Tang Haofei’s face. Leisurely whistling, he glanced at his watch and continued heading in another direction.

Until the second transfer node, the third transfer node...

The duo did not seem intent on directly striking the enemy’s lair, rather leisurely roaming like tourists.

Meanwhile, somewhere within this space, an unseen pair of eyes watched everything like Divine Beings observing from above.

...

In the Demon Realm, looking at the increasingly thick Black Light emitted by the Boundary Cracking Device outside the great hall and the increasingly thick and long Origin Extraction Device, Lord Demon Spirit’s face remained unperturbed. However, the Soul’s Core hidden beneath the mist was now operating at unprecedented speed.

This was not due to the actions arranged by this particular Origin Extraction Device—that trivial matter hardly worth worrying—but concerning the subsequent plan steps established as a premise for this action, and the thing Lord Demon Spirit wanted to acquire...

Until the caretaker’s voice rang from outside the great hall.

”Lord Demon Spirit, message from Number Nine: Sequence Number 1 and Sequence Number 2 have entered the trap.”

”Mm, understood...”

Lord Demon Spirit’s voice was long and calm, with little emotional fluctuation detectable. Yet memories couldn’t help but drift far, reminiscent of long ago in that world long since destroyed, where on a whim, they rescued a Sequence-class expert...

”Hehe, Number Nine, what a pity...”

...

”Now, let’s talk about the arrangements concerning the two of you. This should be the focus of this meeting, right?”

Lin Haifeng’s words lingered around, while on the surface, Tang Haofei still appeared enthusiastically observing everything within the ”Dimensional Maze.” Yet as time passed, he couldn’t contain the seething passion within his heart.

The instinctual rampage known as ”battle” began to awaken within his body, with every cell in his body cheering, anticipating the never-before-seen opponent sure to come next!

Excitement started to permeate his entire being, and at this moment Tang Haofei found it hard to suppress the boiling blood, unable to resist transmitting to his companion: ”Found it yet?”

”Not yet, but we’ve got the lead.”

Wen Yu’s voice came from beside him. Tang Haofei nodded lightly, admiring how Soul Perception was indeed much more useful than regular sensing methods while suppressing the frantic passion in his heart and taking a heavy breath.

Reflecting on the meeting earlier with Lin Haifeng and Wen Yu’s deductions.

”The intelligence system has done a good job, and we have some records of the Demon Tribe’s general tactics, and have some measures for emergencies. But the focus is on you two.”

Lin Haifeng glanced at Tang Haofei, then at Wen Yu not far away.

”We understand the Demon Tribe, their capacity to deploy troops via the Demon Realm’s Gate at certain times, the inner defense circle of the Dimensional Maze. Correspondingly, the Demon Tribe knows us better; what puzzles me now is how the Demon Tribe will counter the two of you.”

Tang Haofei and Wen Yu, Sequence Number 1 and Sequence Number 2...

Super monsters completely surpassing Level 6 life forms!

”So, I thought about the problem Wen Yu and Kuangliu encountered when solving the Demon Worship Sect.”

”Treasure land!”

Wen Yu inserted a comment while recalling the last scene that happened in the Heavenly Palace—two Treasure Land Protectors fought desperately to exonerate him, shifting the Dominator’s suspicions.

”It must be the treasure land... Over at Dominator’s place, oh, his subordinates were penetrated by the Demon Tribe until they were riddled with holes.”

Even his most trusted Protector Number 1 became an enemy spy. The term ”loner” aptly described the Dominator.

”That’s right, so this problem still falls on you two shoulders. If both of you are entangled by a certain treasure land, I’m afraid this battle will be tough, and we can’t rule out the possibility that the Demon Tribe will deploy multiple Treasure Land Protectors...”

Lin Haifeng rubbed his head, obviously a bit troubled and distressed by this issue.

”That’s simple.”

Wen Yu’s answer was confident, and seeing Tang Haofei’s laid-back posture, holding his arms in a leisurely manner, it’s clear Old Tang might not regard Lin Haifeng’s expressed issue as significant.

The gap in strength brought a fundamental difference in perspective on problems among the former three giants.

”First, I need a human corpse. Well, the strength should be weaker, need a skill scroll ensuring a grand spectacle when I fly, also black light portrait effects. Speed doesn’t matter; Old Tang can provide a hand. We also need concealment or aura-mimicking items, and make his appearance identical to mine...”

For the military, these are simple tasks.

”The key is...”

Wen Yu’s gaze fell on Tang Haofei.

”Are you confident in taking down the Treasure Land Protector?”

”Hehe, take a guess?”

...

”Found it!”

Wen Yu’s voice came from beside him as the precise location entered his mind.

”132 meters behind us, this son of a ***** has been following us all along! Damn!”

In the next moment, light illuminated, and a fierce fist wind accompanied by a terrifying assault that made the very space tremble, forcefully pressed back.

”Die!!!”

The violent roar resounded like a descent of Thunder, causing Wen Yu beside him to bleed from seven orifices, and the next moment, his entire head exploded like a watermelon...
