People are Behind the Scenes, and I Can Do the Material Fusion!

75: The Lord of the Underworld takes action.Besides the immediate benefits, the most crucial issue was Ember Sky Son.

He himself said that he might lose control in three days.

As for attacking him with energy balls?

All three of them knew in their hearts: with Ember Sky Son’s strength, could an energy ball injure him?

To continue staying here was simply slow suicide.

After Su Yun learned that the three agreed, he immediately wrote a few lines on the paper:

”Good! Since you have agreed, I will inform Lord of the Underworld to pick us up.”

But then he wrote another sentence on the paper: ”However, before that, what about this statue? Blood Ghost, are you still planning to suck blood?”

Upon hearing this, the three’s gazes simultaneously turned to Blood Skyhawk.

However, Blood Skyhawk, who was being watched by everyone, remained silent, not answering for a long time.

Fang Zhiqiang suddenly suggested: ”How about we make a wish, wishing him to safely get through this crisis?”

He added, ”After all, no matter what, he at least saved us twice. By that calculation, we all owe him two lives.”

Su Yun and An Changyang exchanged glances, nodded, and then looked at Blood Skyhawk.

Being stared at by the three, Blood Skyhawk’s mouth twitched, and he said:

”Although I am not a good person, I am not ungrateful either.”

”Besides, he has saved us twice, what’s the big deal about making a wish?”

”And... what I’m about to do might offend people, so this can be considered our compensation.”

That’s right, at this moment, Blood Skyhawk had already made up his mind.

He couldn’t possibly miss such a good breakthrough opportunity.

After thinking it through, Blood Skyhawk spoke again:

”Let Stone Wolf make this wish, Crow’s Mouth, you’d better not speak.”

Upon hearing this, Su Yun’s mouth twitched slightly, but he didn’t say much, directly handing the destiny coin to An Changyang.

An Changyang took the coin without hesitation, took a deep breath, and then tossed it vigorously into the air.

”Ding—!”

The coin drew a golden arc, made a crisp sound in the air, and finally landed back in An Changyang’s palm.

However, this time, the evil girl’s side was facing up.

Seeing this scene, the few people were silent for a while.

Especially An Changyang, who looked down at the coin and hesitantly asked:

”This... should we still make a wish? What if it harms someone later?”

Fang Zhiqiang patted his shoulder and said with a smile: ”How about we still do it? Anyway, last time it was also tails up, and weren’t we fine?”

”And if we don’t make a wish, who knows what bad things might happen.”

An Changyang glanced at Fang Zhiqiang upon hearing this, then turned his gaze to Blood Skyhawk.

Blood Skyhawk thought for a moment, also nodded towards An Changyang, and said:

”Indeed, just as Quanxiu said, weren’t we alive last time too!”

”Besides, with Ember Sky Son’s strength, there should be no problem.”

Seeing this, An Changyang didn’t hesitate and directly made a wish:

”I hope Ember Sky Son can safely get through this time.”

After speaking, he handed the destiny coin to Su Yun.

Su Yun took the coin and called out to Lord of the Underworld in his mind to pick them up.

And Blood Skyhawk also began his actions, walking resolutely towards Ember Sky Son’s statue.

...

At the same time, Rodriguez and the slightly recovered Storm Empress decided to split up.

Rodriguez was responsible for searching for god’s crystals in the Critical Point and sealing this Critical Point;

While Storm Empress set up a large ice array, firmly freezing the unawakened Titan Flame Demon.

”If this thing comes back to life, none of us will be its match.”

Storm Empress sighed in her heart.

She suddenly understood why the island nation didn’t bargain at all—it turned out this Critical Point was so dangerous!

This monster was much more terrifying than the one that emerged from the World-Destroying level Critical Point she had previously guarded.

However, when she thought about the entire Hokkaido becoming her territory, her mood improved a bit.

By then, she could incorporate Hokkaido into her territory and break through to the World-Destroying level with the help of North Cold Great Emperor’s ability.

Thinking of this, Storm Empress moved faster, and the depression in her heart vanished, temporarily forgetting the pain in her body.

On the other side, Rodriguez searched the Critical Point for a long time and finally found a golden god’s crystal the size of a grain of rice.

Seeing that it was a golden god’s crystal, his previously low mood instantly soared.

”Even if it’s only this big, it’s worth it!” he thought.

However, when he looked again at the Critical Point in front of him, and the frozen monster, his mood became complicated again.

”Sigh, I always feel like I lost a lot this time...” he murmured,

This kind of risk for so little gain, it’s really not worth it.

But fortunately, there were still five god’s crystals from the island nation, which served as a small comfort to his heart.

Rodriguez thought to himself, glanced at the Critical Point in front of him, and casually set up a simple seal, too lazy to bother with it further.

Then, he walked forward and asked Storm Empress: ”Can your ice-sealing array be moved?”

Storm Empress merely gave him a white look and casually said:

”Why don’t you try it?”

”However, if this monster runs out, you deal with it yourself, I won’t help.”

Rodriguez shrugged, no longer inviting trouble.

Subsequently, he opened a spatial passage and directly teleported near the Bay.

And when Storm Empress saw this, she quickly strengthened the seal, after stacking several layers of ice-sealing arrays.

Only then did she fly towards the direction of Hokkaido.

After all, although the island nation did not disclose the true intelligence of the Critical Point, the land area they provided was indeed not small.

Based on this point, Storm Empress felt that she had done her best.

However, after Storm Empress left, in a place no one noticed, the heart of the Flame Demon began to emit wisps of black-purple rune light.

Its aura was also quietly recovering, seemingly brewing something.

As for Tanaka Katsuyu and his subordinates, who were ignored at the side, they all breathed a sigh of relief at this moment—after all, that terrifying monster was finally dealt with.

At this time, Tanaka Katsuyu received a message from a subordinate:

[Officer Tanaka, we have found Watanabe Ichiro, and confirmed that he has indeed broken through to the World-Destroying level!]

[However, Watanabe Ichiro does not want to see us now, nor does he allow us to approach.]

[Please instruct the next course of action.]

After reading the message, Tanaka Katsuyu, who had been suppressing his emotions for a long time, finally couldn’t help but smile.

During this period, the island nation had suffered successive misfortunes: first, a World-Destroying level Critical Point appeared in Hokkaido, forcing them to cede a large area of land;

Then, due to the great battle between two unknown powerhouses, countless casualties and property losses occurred, and the nation’s vitality was severely damaged, which would probably take decades to recover.

In addition, Mount Fuji was destroyed by a monster that escaped from a Critical Point.

But none of this mattered, as long as it was confirmed that Watanabe Ichiro had become a World-Destroying level powerhouse, all of this would no longer be a problem!

As long as this news was announced internationally, the island nation could directly leap to become the fourth largest power!

And this good news directly overshadowed all the previous bad news.

All the terrible possibilities that had been hanging over his head—such as being dismissed, or even committing seppuku—all disappeared!

Not only that, he might even be promoted, and the position of the next prime minister might fall to him.

Just as Tanaka Katsuyu was secretly feeling smug, the sky suddenly underwent a strange change.

The sky, which had just brightened slightly, instantly became pitch black again.

Before he could react, a huge ghostly hand condensed from the sky, covering the entire sun.

”Nani! What kind of monster is this again?”

Tanaka Katsuyu suddenly looked up, only to see the ghostly giant hand grabbing fiercely towards Ember Sky Son’s statue.

Tanaka Katsuyu’s heart almost stopped just by feeling the aura at the edge of this giant hand, and his throat felt blocked, making it difficult to even breathe.

The air within a few kilometers seemed to solidify, and time seemed to stand still.

The pressure emanating from that giant hand was suffocating.

”What... what is that?!” The adjutant’s voice trembled, already completely paralyzed on the ground.

”Quickly notify headquarters!”

Tanaka Katsuyu managed to calm down, took out his communicator to report the situation, but the screen only showed dazzling static.

The signal had been completely shielded by some mysterious force.
