Lu Wuxin had died without any hesitation.
He collapsed on the iron chair that had been tied up. His hands and feet were still bound by the barriers triggered by demonic stripes. His eyes, one large and one small, had both turned pale. Every scar on his ugly face had faded, but his lips were still curled into a gloating smile, as if he were mocking the people who were studying his body.
Although there was not the slightest wound on the surface, his brain had been melted into a cluster of half-frozen venom. All his brain cells and nerve endings had been corrupted. His will and his soul had perished instantly. Even the deities would not have been able to save him.
To show his sincerity for cooperation, after giving half of the intelligence, Lu Wuxin began to confess the experiment files of the Demon God Virus. Many of the critical data were not known by the Coalition Army of Demons and would be very helpful for the control of the epidemic.
Even so, everybody was still wary of him. His every finger and toe had been bound by barriers and could not move at all. He could only record the information with telepathic thoughts on a crystal processor that Li Yao had specially modified. A demon emperor was also watching nearby.
With such a heavy defense, Lu Wuxin could not have escaped even if he had wings!
But he had died uncannily right in front of Wei Tianqing, the demon emperor of the wolf clan!
Half an hour later, the preliminary autopsy was completed. Lu Wuxin had committed suicide.
In the deepest part of his brain, a thin shell was found, which was the debris of a certain venom gland.
He had not lied. He had indeed performed a series of minor operations on his brain and stuffed a lot of 'gadgets' into it.
The 'venom gland' could be manipulated with telepathic thoughts. When the intensity of his brainwaves reached a certain level, he would be able to activate it freely and release the venom inside, killing himself quickly and decisively.
The autopsy report … Almost everybody was turned into solid ice sculptures.
"We've been fooled."
The Fire Ant sounded more frustrated than ever. "Since the very beginning, Lu Wuxin never intended to negotiate with us or serve us. The only purpose of his confession was to trick us into giving him the nutrition drugs. When the intensity of his brainwaves recovered to a certain level, he could manipulate the venom gland inside his brain to commit suicide. Let's take a look. "
"But …"
Han Tuhu still couldn't figure it out. "Why would he commit suicide for no reason?"
"Because he knew very well that even if he told us everything, we would not let him go."
Jin Xinyue said coldly, "Mad Medic Lu Wuxin has been in the Blood Demon Sector for almost a hundred years. He has too many enemies. Also, as the manager of the laboratory of the Demon God Virus, he has ruined too many families of demons! There was no way he could survive. If you really fall into the hands of these enemies, you won't even be able to die. "
"That's right."
The Fire Ant King sighed and said, "There are too many ways in the Blood Demon Sector to torture a sinner for years without killing him. Lu Wuxin is an expert in that field himself. He knows the feeling of begging for death better than anyone else. He does not want to end up in such a situation!"
"I think he wanted to commit suicide a long time ago, but when he was first caught, he didn't. Even his brain domain had been suppressed, and his brainwave strength could not be increased. He could not stimulate the venom gland at all. That was why he pretended to be obedient and waited for an opportunity. Finally, he found an opportunity and successfully escaped from the torment that was worse than death! "
Suo Chaolong bashed the table hard and said in a hurry, "It doesn't matter whether he is dead or alive. But there is still so much valuable intelligence inside his head. Is there any way to dig it out? "
Jin Tuyi coughed softly. "Lu Wuxin's brain has been seriously damaged. It is barely possible to retrieve valuable intelligence from it. Besides, I think that Lu Wuxin has confessed everything he knows. Even if he is hiding something, it can't be too much.
"He only followed Elder Nether Spring in the past ten years. The Children of the Nether World and the Abyss project had nothing to do with him at all. He had collected all the information in secret. It was already quite difficult for him to collect so much intelligence. How could he have known the whole picture of the Children of the Nether World and the Abyss project?
"It is exactly because he knew that the intelligence he collected was not enough to trade for his life that he was killed so quickly!"
Everybody pondered for a moment and had to admit that Jin Tuyi did have a point. Lu Wuxin was not a direct participant of the Children of the Nether World project. What he knew was just the tip of the iceberg. Look!
"In any case, I have to go to the Tian Yuan Realm and find the leadership of the Xing Yao Federation as soon as possible so that I can send the intelligence out and prove the existence of the Children of the Nether World. I will also establish a channel of communication between the Tian Yuan Realm and the Blood Demon Sector."
Li Yao said. "Right now, we don't know the first thing about the Xing Yao Federation. If the Children of the Nether World really stir trouble in the Federation and even instigate the Xing Yao Federation to attack the Blood Demon Sector, there will be no time for us to act!"
There were no smooth channels of communication between the Blood Demon Sector and the Tian Yuan Realm. Before, the Blood Demon Sector had sent some spies to the Tian Yuan Realm. But because they could not solve the problem of the leakage of demonic energy, it was impossible for them to sneak into the leadership of the Federation. They could not even sneak into the heavily-guarded cities. They could only hide here and there and deliver the most basic information in fear.
Since the capital city was invaded by the demon race three months ago, the Federation had been on high alert. The spies had been dug out and cut off without leaving any behind.
On the Grand Desolate Plateau, Jin Tuyi did not want to have any more conflicts with the Federation. Therefore, he ordered all the demons to retreat to the Blood Demon Sector. Without his order, not even a cockroach was allowed to enter the Tian Yuan Realm.
Therefore, the Tian Yuan Realm was a complete black box for them right now. They knew nothing about the changes that had taken place in the past three months!
The longer they delayed, the greater the variables. Li Yao had been preparing to go to the Tian Yuan Realm after learning the whole truth of the Red Tide Plan. But at that time, the Mystic Skeleton Battlesuit had not been repaired yet, and his cooperation with Jin Tuyi had just begun. Therefore, everything had been delayed.
Today, the Mystic Skeleton Battlesuit had been repaired, the latest framework of Skyfire had basically taken shape, and Jin Tuyi and Jin Xinyue had basically grasped the situation in the Blood Demon Sector. Li Yao could finally rest assured!
"Why don't I go with you?"
Han Tuhu could not wait to go to the Union Army. His words carry a lot of weight, and he knows a lot of the leadership of the military. They will certainly believe me if I prove it! "
Han Tuhu was the highest commander of one of the sixteen Crystal Suit Legions of the Federation. Naturally, he had a lot of connections in the Union Army. His influence was enormous.
It had been more than a year since he had been captured by Elder Nether Spring and brought to the Blood Demon Sector. He had been missing his motherland day and night!
Li Yao thought for a moment and shook his head slowly. "I think I'd better go by myself first. Let's see what's going on first. "
Han Tuhu was surprised. "Why?"
Li Yao looked at Jin Tuyi and said, "If Elder Nether Spring is really trying to instigate a world war between the Heaven's Origin Sector and the Blood Demon Sector, he will be cutting off the communication between the two Sectors! Only when there is no direct channel of communication between the two Sectors will he be able to fan the flames and escalate the situation!
"Therefore, assuming that the Children of the Nether World have taken action, they will certainly be wary of everybody who jumps from the Blood Demon Sector to the Tian Yuan Realm. Especially people like us! "
"Judging from the intelligence we have, the Children of the Nether World have infiltrated the Federation to an astonishing extent. Even the commander of the Crystal Suit Legions of the Union Army might be a Child of the Nether World. They will certainly try their best to stop us, if not annihilate us!
"The hatred between the Heaven's Origin Sector and the Blood Demon Sector is too deep to be explained in a few words. General Han, what about your image right now? "
Han Tuhu was dazed for a moment. He could not help but smile bitterly.
He and Suo Chaolong were the most important test subjects of Elder Nether Spring. After more than a year of inhumane experiments deep inside the Nether World on the Gloomy Wind Island in the North Pole, the cells inside their bodies had mutated time and time again. In the end, he became more and more like a demon, and Suo Chaolong was more and more like a human being.
After the Serum of Chaos was successfully produced on a large scale, Han Tuhu and the soldiers of the Flying Tigers Legion had all participated in the first batch of injections. But the effect was not satisfactory.
It was because … The Serum of Chaos was not a direct imitation of the Divine Blood of Chaos but originated from Jin Xinyue's blood.
Although Jin Xinyue had swallowed excessive Divine Blood of Chaos and completely transformed from a demon into a human being, her blood was still significantly different from the original Divine Blood of Chaos after all. It was impossible for her to achieve the purest effect.
Besides, they did not intend to replicate the purest Divine Blood of Chaos at all, at least not right now.
The Blood Demon Sector was full of miasma and venomous fog, which was not suitable for the survival of ordinary people. For the accomplished demon kings such as Jin Xinyue, after being transformed into Core Formation Stage Cultivators, they could still resist the miasma with their abundant spiritual energy. But if the regular demons were transformed into the purest human beings and could not adapt to the miasma and venomous fog, they would be harming people instead of saving people.
Therefore, the Chaos Serum that was produced in the first batch did not fully restore the cells. It could only remove most of the features of demons, but a lot of 'demonized cells', or 'primeval cells', were kept in the internal organs.
The soldiers of the Union Army such as Han Tuhu were also the survivors of the experiments. Their mutations were too deep. The demonic cells inside their bodies were deeply rooted and could not be completely recovered after one or two injections.
After three injections, although Han Tuhu no longer looked like a green-faced, long-fanged yaksha, the features of demons were still obvious. The critical parts all over his body were embedded with natural shells, and the long bone tail on his back was still waving, too.
If he were in the Tian Yuan Realm, he would not be able to defend himself under the instigation of the Children of the Nether World.
Li Yao had the same problem himself, too.
Although he was able to maintain the standard appearance of a human being with the help of the mental devil, it was impossible for the primeval cells that had been completely activated to be restored to their original state.
It meant that it would be difficult for him to pass the 'demon test' even after he arrived in the Tian Yuan Realm.
However, his methods of controlling demonic energy were better than Han Tuhu's after all, and it would be more difficult to frame a 'Special Level Federation hero' than to frame a commander of a legion, too.
Besides, with the combat ability of the 'superlative height of the Core Formation Stage', his survival ability in the Heaven's Origin Sector was slightly higher than that of Han Tuhu, a 'common Core Formation Stage Cultivator'.
"It's decided. I'll go to the Federation first to gather enough intelligence and ensure our safety. Then, General Han and the rest of the soldiers of the 'demonized Union Army' will return home. It will be safer that way. What do you think, everybody?"
Li Yao rose abruptly and glared at everyone with his eyes that were as sharp as blades. He was not shaken at all even when he met Jin Tuyi's eyes! (To be continued.)
