CHAPTER 700: CHAPTER 424: TOP-LEVEL RESOURCE EXCHANGE

Dragon Power Base.

Southern War Zone staff officer Qi Jinhui brought a team to the base, preparing to enter the Abyss Battlefield report for Lu Heng and three others.

He proposed last night to lead a team near Lu Heng’s home for recording work, to make it convenient for Lu Heng to rest at home.

However, Lu Heng thought that work matters shouldn’t be brought home, so they chose Dragon Power Base.

Due to the Elf World’s summons this time, only Lu Heng and the other three went, and this time an Abyss Demon King of demigod level appeared on the Abyss Battlefield, making every detail extremely valuable.

Especially information regarding the demigods, the Fourth Transition rank, and the Undead Skeletons, each piece has a tremendous impact on the Human World.

Besides, Lu Heng also brought back important information.

"Our world has started to see Abyss Summoners."

Qi Jinhui’s gaze froze for a moment upon hearing this information.

Previously, the Human World had summoners, but they were all Alliance Summoners.

For example, the Bansel people were once summoned to Blue Star.

Blue Star has long been part of the Abyss Battlefield, but the summoners that appeared were all Alliance Summoners; there had never been summoners from the opposing camp.

This time, Lu Heng, while interrogating the three Bloodline Demons in an Elf Main City dungeon, heard from them that the Bloodline Clan had been summoned to Blue Star.

Those not sensitive to such information might not understand its significance, but Lu Heng knew all too well.

"This marks the progress of the Abyss invasion from the mid-phase to the later phase, meaning that our world will see more and stronger Abyss Demons," Lu Heng explained the significance of this information before Qi Jinhui could ask.

Qi Jinhui took a deep breath, and his hand holding the pen started to sweat slightly.

He wouldn’t doubt what Lu Heng said, nor did he need to question where this information came from.

The Elf Clan has been opposing the Abyss for hundreds of years, experiencing every phase of the Abyss invasion, and these pieces of information can all be obtained from the Elf Clan.

After quickly thinking, Qi Jinhui asked, "Does this mean that our world will more frequently become an Abyss Battlefield in the future?"

Lu Heng nodded, "Yes, it will become more frequent."

In fact, the frequency with which Blue Star becomes an Abyss Battlefield has been increasingly obvious.

The military has always been counting how often Blue Star becomes an Abyss Battlefield, starting from once every two to three months, gradually increasing to once a month, with the frequency continuously rising.

By extrapolating from this pattern, a conclusion can easily be reached.

Qi Jinhui started searching the files, saying, "Regarding the information you mentioned, I searched the records and found no instances of Bloodline Demons appearing on Blue Star."

Lu Heng took over the conversation, saying, "That’s also what I wanted to mention; I learned this information while interrogating the Bloodline Demons, but the war zone did not receive any related intelligence.

"There are only two possibilities: one is that the Bloodline Demons executed their mission very thoroughly, killing anyone who had seen them.

"If that’s the case, investigating recent mysterious death events should yield results.

"After all, for not a single piece of information to leak out, the Bloodline Demons would have to kill all relevant personnel. Such large-scale death events can’t go unrecorded.

"By comparison, I think the second possibility is more likely, where an organization or group deliberately blocked the news of the Bloodline Demons’ appearance.

"As for the reason, I can’t think of it right now, but it’s most likely related to interests.

"The Bone Sovereign can control humans to do his bidding, and the Bloodline Clan can do the same, so we need to be vigilant."

Qi Jinhui contemplated and replied, "Understood, I’ll gather the recent intelligence for analysis when I go back, to see if any leads related to the Bloodline Clan can be found."

After considering for a moment, Lu Heng said, "Upon this return, I’ve gained an additional Skill Slot and will need a suitable Skill Crystal Core, which might require assistance from the war zone."

On this matter, Qi Jinhui actually doesn’t have the decision-making power, but he agreed without hesitation: "No problem, we’ll find time to check the inventory of Crystal Cores, and allocate a suitable one to you."

His readiness to agree clearly indicates instruction from Li Guining.

It seems to be a directive from Li Guining, to try to meet any of Lu Heng’s requests.

Lu Heng continued, "There’s one more thing, this request is a bit more difficult; I’d like to obtain some of the Fourth Transition Class Source Material if the war zone has any.

"Of course, I understand how rare the Fourth Transition Class is right now, so I’ll exchange it for resources of equal value."

So far, among humans, only two Fourth Transition Classes have appeared.

The first is the "Death God’s Deputy," and the second is Lu Heng’s "Judgement Blade."

Among them, the "Death God’s Deputy" is a special class, accompanied by a Blood-colored Scythe.

This means that the only class obtained through orthodox means is Lu Heng’s "Judgement Blade."

It’s clear how scarce the Fourth Transition Class is at the current stage.

However, as the Abyss invasion reaches the end of its second year, the likelihood of Fourth Transition Class Source Materials appearing will gradually increase.

Lu Heng’s application for Fourth Transition Class Source Material aid from the war zone isn’t for himself but rather for the other three members of his team.

Fourth Transition Class Source Materials are not something you get just because you want them.

No boss is guaranteed to drop such high-level resources; it’s all left to luck.

One thing is certain, the higher the danger level of the Abyss Battlefield, the higher the chance of high-level Source Materials appearing.
