Mike shook his head as he read, "According to this paper, that old fox had his memory sealed at least three times!"
Eye of Truth: [Four times]
"So tragic?" Mike couldn't help but wonder how there could be four times. He focused on the line 'The experimental subject has undergone multiple Memory Seals.'
More information surfaced.
[First time, decades ago, Blaze Morrow had a close encounter with a potential Supreme Being.]
"Hiss-" Mike hadn't expected that. According to the Eye of Truth, that Memory Seal was actually requested by the then [Apollo], with Shadow Nine executing it.
After [Apollo] became a Supreme Being, both of them forgot about it, leaving Blaze's Memory Seal intact.
Can you be more reliable, Shadow Nine?
Reading this, Mike suddenly realized something. He had seen Professor Gregory and read his information.
As a [Potential Supreme Being detector], Professor Gregory had interacted with four potential Supreme Beings. Each time, Shadow Nine would theatrically seal Professor Gregory's memory.
Professor Gregory would soon realize his memory had been sealed and would secretly try to break the Memory Seal. What he never knew was that at least three soul element experts from [Guardian Shadow] were always watching him closely.
Occasionally, they would even livestream it to Shadow Nine for remote viewing. After all, Professor Gregory was only level 60, not even a fraction of these Battle Lords' levels.
No matter how high his theoretical knowledge, his practical skills were still at a level 60 standard. If he messed up, they could step in to fix it, preventing Professor Gregory from truly harming himself. According to Shadow Nine's usual practice, he would unseal the memory once the potential Supreme Being rose to prominence.
Mike frowned and muttered, "Blaze Morrow's memory has been sealed for decades. Why hasn't it been unsealed?"
The problem lay here. Shadow Nine hadn't unsealed it, which must mean there was a reason. After this great battle, Mike would find an opportunity to ask Shadow Nine.
Mike was particularly interested because this matter involved [Apollo].
According to what Maxen Stoneheart had privately told Mike, there was a legacy among Supreme Beings! The more Mike understood about [Apollo], the better it would be for him.
So far, Mike had encountered Supreme Being [Apollo] a few times.
Mike had left a message on the Monument of Faith in the Forest of Truth. And when the Lyre sounded, it had delivered the Thunderclap Hammer to Mike.
Mike: "Let's put the review on hold for now. It's not urgent."
Shadow Seven pointed deeper into the Forest of Truth, her expression serious, "The frequency of demon creature appearances is increasing. There are some things I need to tell you in advance."
Initially, Shadow Seven had estimated there would be some rest time, which was why she had given Mike the paper. But demon creatures kept pouring out of the Forest of Truth, and over 50% of them were heading towards their direction.
Shadow Seven was furious, "Do these guys think I'm easy to bully?"
Mike remained silent, internally chanting, "It's not my fault, it's not my fault..."
Shadow Seven brought the conversation back on track, "You know there were Battle Lord- level demon creatures trying to break through earlier, right?"
Mike nodded, "I know, you slashed it."
"It wasn't just one demon race Battle Lord," Shadow Seven recalled the battle, speaking slowly, "I received orders from Apollo to take the initiative and head to the Ebon Abyss. When
I arrived, I discovered something unexpected. The Sixth Abyssal Plane had deployed two full corps to the Ebon Abyss!"
The demon race's corps structure was similar to humanity's, with three Battle Lords and twelve Battle Chiefs. The Ebon Abyss was a small plane, with limited capacity for Battle Lord- level powerhouses. Too many would destabilize the plane, risking collapse!
Humanity's corps abandoning the Ebon Abyss caught the demon race off guard. Only a few high-ranking humans knew that humanity now had a stable supply of high-quality minerals. The Ebon Abyss had become dispensable.
In this context, humanity's corps withdrew, and the demon race corps took over the Ebon Abyss. Even though it was a small plane with C-grade minerals, it wasn't worth two corps.
But they could use the Ebon Abyss as a springboard to attack Earth directly! Two demon race corps appearing in the Forest of Truth could cause massive damage to humanity! Listening to Shadow Seven's description, Mike asked cooperatively, "So, you discovered two full demon race corps. Then what?"
Since Shadow Seven had returned unscathed and the Forest of Truth hadn't seen any demon race corps, the outcome was clear.
At this point, Shadow Seven paused, a rare occurrence. Clearly, she was still shaken by someone's extreme actions, even now.
"Apollo blew up the Ebon Abyss," Shadow Seven said, word by word.
Deep in the mine, humanity had long prepared various measures, with Shadow Three lurking,
ready to act.
By exploiting the unique properties of the Ebon Abyss, they turned the entire plane into one
massive firework display.
Boom-With a thunderous explosion, the entire Ebon Abyss erupted, transforming two full demon corps into fireworks, brilliant as blooming flowers.
