From the Abyss Invasion to the Blasting Star.

Chapter 482 Attack on the Conscription, Bloodline Demon Territory

A key piece of information can be gleaned from the description of the white light: the Zero Civilization possesses the ability to influence conscription.

Is this the power of a demigod civilization?
Lu Heng asked a question that had been on his mind for a long time: "As a demigod civilization, do you know what the summoning of will is?"

Bai Guang fell silent and did not give an answer.

However, silence is actually a silent answer.

From his silence, Lu Heng could sense that the Zero Civilization probably didn't know the essence of the summoned will either.

There are too many things about the abyss that we cannot see clearly.

Now that a demigod civilization with whom he could communicate normally had appeared before him, Lu Heng naturally wouldn't let this opportunity slip by and continued to press for answers:

"Can you tell me something? Does your civilization have a way to purify the abyss?"

Bai Guang fell silent again, refusing to answer.

Lu Heng had no choice but to return to the matter of the offensive conscription: "You want to create an abyss battlefield and conscript me into the world of bloodline demons. Can I understand that your civilization does not have the ability to travel to the world of bloodline demons?"

This time, Bai Guang gave a negative answer: "I have the ability to enter the world of the Blood Demons, but I want to prevent civilization from being affected by the Abyss, so I need your help."

"I will leave you something. When you find the Source of Reincarnation but are unable to compete for it, you can use this item to notify me."

Lu Heng agreed to his proposal: "Okay."

Bai Guang added, "One more thing, the first world that summons you will not necessarily be the world of bloodline demons."

Lu Heng frowned: "You mean, you want me to go to the Shadow Demon World first?"

Bai Guang: "It's not decided yet. I will choose the world where the Reincarnation Source Essence is most likely to appear, but which specific world it will be is still undecided."

Lu Heng understood what he meant and did not object: "Okay, but I hope you can notify me in advance after the target world is determined."

The white light did not respond to those words and slowly disappeared.

After the white light disappeared, it left behind a round crystal core the size of a walnut.

Lu Heng walked over, reached out and grasped the crystal core. He didn't see any data information, but judging from the description in the white light, this round crystal core should be the item that was connecting him to the crystal.

After putting away the circular crystal core, Lu Heng looked around, reached out and scooped up some air, trying to discern the essence of the white light.

The result was the same as the first time: the appearance and disappearance of the white light did not bring about any changes in the environment.

The surrounding space froze only when the white light appeared.

After the white light disappeared, Su Muyu and the others recovered from the frozen state of space.

Lin Zeyu hurriedly asked, "Has the Zero Civilization reappeared?"

Su Muyu nodded and replied, "Yes, I communicated with the Zero Civilization. From what I heard, the Zero Civilization is preparing to continue asking us to help them find the Reincarnation Source Essence."

Yuan Yaoyao chimed in, "I also spoke to the Zero Civilization. I followed the quantum computer's strategy and asked it many questions, but it refused to answer many of them and eventually shut up."

Clearly, the Black Feather Spirit's quantum computer had devised a questioning strategy that involved a barrage of questions, all of which were crucial. The Zero Civilization did not want to reveal too much information and ultimately refused to communicate at all.

Hearing their words, Lin Zeyu's eyes widened as he said, "Why doesn't he respond when I call out to him? But you two can communicate with him? What gives you the right?"

Xie Shi'en reached out and patted his shoulder, comforting him, "Maybe he feels that communicating with you is not worthwhile."

Lin Zeyu's eyes widened even more: "Is that something you're saying to comfort me?"

Xie Shi'en ignored him, turned to look at Lu Heng, and asked, "What are the arrangements?"

Lu Heng replied, "Is the Zero Civilization planning to arrange offensive conscription for us?"

"Offensive drafting?" All four looked puzzled.

This term was something that all the ability users except Lu Heng were hearing for the first time.

To date, humanity has not encountered an offensive draft.

Because the chances of an offensive draft being used are too small.

In a world invaded by the abyss, even self-preservation is difficult, let alone having the extra energy to launch an offensive and conscription.

Lu Heng gave a brief explanation to the group about what offensive drafting was.

Xie Shi'en asked, "So, the Zero Civilization hasn't determined the location of the Reincarnation Source Matter yet, so it's uncertain whether it's going to the Bloodline Demon World or the Shadow Demon World."

Lu Heng nodded: "Yes, we can now rule out humans and the Sykes civilization. That leaves only the Blood Demons and Shadow Demons."

Before his rebirth, Lu Heng had come into contact with the Reincarnation Source Essence.

If things had continued as they were, Lu Heng would have known the location where the final Reincarnation Essence would appear, but that would have been three years after the Abyss descended.

In other words, there are still about six months until the time when I came into contact with the source of reincarnation in my previous life.

It is now the end of June in the third year since the Abyss descended. At this time in the previous life, the information about the Reincarnation Source Essence had not yet been disseminated.

The reason becomes clear after a little thought.

At this point in time, the Zero Civilization has emerged from their world to search for the Source of Reincarnation, and they are conducting a secret investigation.

The targets of the investigation are all recruiters who have been to the Zero World.

Even those recruits investigated by the Zero Civilization may not know what the Zero Civilization is looking for.

Setting aside his memories of rebirth, Lu Heng proactively offered to help the Zero Civilization through communication, which led him to obtain the four words "Reincarnation Source Essence" from them.

Therefore, apart from Lu Heng and the members of his team, no one knows anything about the Reincarnation Source Essence.

According to the memories of rebirth, information about the Reincarnation Source Essence will spread in two months, and then countless superhumans and powerful forces will compete for the Reincarnation Source Essence.

In Lu Heng's memory, all he knew was that the Reincarnation Source Essence would appear in the Abyss Demon Nest five and a half months later.

However, during those five and a half months, no one knew where the Reincarnation Source was hidden or who had obtained it.

Moreover, many things have changed in this life.

Starting the search for the Reincarnation Source six months in advance will definitely affect the development of events. If the timeline changes, the Reincarnation Source may not eventually appear in the Abyss Demon Nest.

……

Xie Shi'en pondered for a moment and asked, "Do you want to go to the Bloodline Demon World, or the Shadow Demon World?"

Lu Heng had considered this question and replied, "Humanity is facing a crisis of bloodline invasion. If possible, it would be better to go to the world of bloodline demons, where we might be able to find a way to fight against the bloodline invasion."

Lin Zeyu scratched his head and said, "It seems like we don't have a choice, right? Didn't Bai Guang say that the target world hasn't been determined yet? If he thinks that the Reincarnation Source Essence is in the Shadow Demon World, he will definitely take us there."

Lu Heng smiled and said, "Which world we go to is indeed decided by the Zero Civilization, but that doesn't mean we can't influence their decision."

Lin Zeyu immediately understood what he meant and said, "You mean, you want to activate that spy servant from the Bloodline Demons?"

Lu Heng had this idea.

The team briefly discussed the arrangements for the next few days, and then went back to rest.

Lu Heng retrieved the heart container of the High Banshee Tiens and made contact with her.

A few minutes later, a mental fluctuation emanated from the heart container. "Honorable master, Tiins greets you."

Lu Heng asked in a completely emotionless voice, "Has anything major happened to the Bloodline Clan recently?"

Tiens: "Nothing particularly important, except that Prince Moznis is likely to be promoted to demigod."

"Because my magic is waning, if this continues, the power I wield will soon be surpassed by Prince Moznis."

When she said her magic had faded, she was naturally referring to the act of donating her heart.

Although donating her heart did not kill her, losing her original heart would inevitably cause her magic to decline rapidly.

The decline of her magic power prevented her from further expanding the faction's influence, and the decline of her power was an inevitable result.

Lu Heng didn't care whether her faction's power had declined; as long as she remained the Supreme Banshee, that was enough.

"Is there any other information about the hidden progenitor among humanity?"

Tiens: "Didn't you kill this progenitor of human bloodlines? The information I received is that this progenitor of bloodlines is dead. Prince Moznis was furious, and no further news has come out since."

Lu Heng narrowed his eyes and fell into deep thought.

During Lawrence Phoenix's arrest, it was indeed witnessed on camera that Lawrence Phoenix died.

However, DNA comparison revealed that Lawrence Phoenix was not related to other members of the Phoenix family.

This means that the supposedly dead Lawrence Phoenix is ​​likely a fake.

If this conjecture is correct, it means that Lawrence Phoenix is ​​indeed still alive.

As a bloodline prince, if Lawrence Phoenix wanted to escape, hiding in the territory of the bloodline demons would be a very good option.

However, now that Tiens has confirmed that Lawrence Phoenix has not appeared in the Blood Demon Territory, he can only be hiding somewhere else.

Lu Heng paused for a moment, then asked, "Investigate something: find out the list of all the bloodline demons who have been to the Zero Civilization, including their information and where they live."

Tiens agreed: "Yes, I will take care of it, Master."

After explaining the matter, Lu Heng ended the contact.

……

Then, Lu Heng took out the round crystal core and tried to communicate: "I will soon be able to get the list of all the bloodline demons who have been to the Zero World. If we teleport to the bloodline demon territory, we should be able to quickly confirm whether these targets have the Reincarnation Source Essence."

The circular crystal core did not respond, and Lu Heng did not wait any longer, directly putting away the crystal core.

That night.

Lu Heng's team of four simultaneously saw a notification.

[Abyss Battlefield: 7 Days Until Recruitment...]

The conscription has begun.

The first thing Lu Heng did upon seeing the conscription notice was to take out the circular crystal core of the Zero Civilization and attempt to communicate: "I've been conscripted. Was this arranged by you?"

hum...

The next instant, a burst of white light bloomed behind them.

The surrounding space froze, and that distant voice came from behind.

"Yes, the Abyss Battlefield is the territory of the Valendar Bloodline Clan, with the core area being the Flame City."

Upon hearing this answer, Lu Heng felt a strange sense of calm.

This is the first time that the Abyss Battlefield has been created through special means.

Moreover, it's an offensive draft.

Lu Heng then pressed on, "Can we know the details of the Abyss Battlefield missions in advance?"

Bai Guang: "No, you can only check it after you teleport there."

Lu Heng frowned and pressed for details: "Is this mission in the Abyss Battlefield related to the Reincarnation Source Essence?"

Bai Guang: "Unsure."

Lu Heng curled the corners of his lips and chuckled, "It seems that you don't have that much influence on the will to be conscripted."

At first, Lu Heng was somewhat shocked to learn that the Zero Civilization could actively create the Abyss Battlefield and teleport designated targets into it.

However, the Zero Civilization was unaware of the mission details of the Abyss Battlefield, which meant they could not fully control the rules of the Abyss Battlefield.

In other words, the Zero Civilization must have been familiar with the rules of conscription and then used those rules to create the conditions for triggering the Abyss Battlefield.

In other words, the law of summoning will is above that of demigod civilizations.

Although the details of the Abyss Battlefield mission are unknown, knowing the target world in advance is already a great help.

Lu Heng wanted to gather with his teammates to discuss things, so he took the initiative to end the conversation: "Is there anything else you guys need to arrange?"

Bai Guang: "Since this Abyss Battlefield may not necessarily be related to the Reincarnation Source Essence, you can handle the battlefield mission however you like. I won't interfere, and even if you die in the Abyss Battlefield, I won't show up to help."

Lu Heng replied calmly, "I know. You just want to reduce contact with other worlds, right? I understand what you mean."

In fact, since the emergence of the Zero Civilization, this civilization has always adhered to one concept: a closed civilization.

To prevent the recruits from affecting their civilization, the Zero Civilization imprisoned them in a zero-gravity space. After the Abyss Battle ended, they provided compensation and then safely escorted the recruits away.

This approach serves another purpose: the Zero Civilization does not want the recruits to die in their world.

In order to achieve complete isolation, the Zero Civilization doesn't even kill the demons that enter their world.

If they can isolate themselves to this extent, they certainly won't help other civilizations.

Lu Heng was mentally prepared for this, so he remained calm.

Bai Guang continued, "There is another possibility, although it is unlikely, but the mission in the Abyss Battlefield may be related to the Reincarnation Source Essence."

"If the battlefield mission is related to Reincarnation Essence, no matter what the mission is, once you obtain Reincarnation Essence, you must hand it over to me, do you agree?"

Lu Heng smiled and replied, "Okay."

This statement was not meant to deceive the Zero Civilization; Lu Heng was sincere.

Because I had come into contact with the source of reincarnation in my previous life, I roughly know what the function of this source is.

Lu Heng did not want to go back to three years ago, so he did not need to compete for the Reincarnation Source Essence.

If they really obtain the Reincarnation Source Essence, they can still negotiate with the Zero Civilization.

This civilization is willing to compensate those who recruit others, and it is unlikely to be too stingy with compensation for those who help them find their reincarnation essence.

Therefore, if Lu Heng obtains the Reincarnation Source Essence, he will indeed return it to the Zero Civilization.

As for what compensation to receive, it has already been decided: all the secrets and knowledge related to the summoning will and the abyss that the Zero Civilization possesses.
