Chapter 524 - Return to the Spirit Race and the Demon Race’s Revenge

“Ancient Zerg?”

Although Janos was unhappy that Vincent had gone back on his word and did not give him any dragon blood, he still took the storage ring out of curiosity. He subconsciously took out the items from the storage ring.

Following a series of crackling sounds, the entire floor trembled. The corpse of the Zerg soon appeared in the room, its huge body almost filling up the room.

Vincent had left the room at the first possible moment and was therefore not affected. Janos, on the other hand, was tightly pressed against the wall by one of the Zerg’s feet. He was almost unable to breathe.

“Good stuff! The materials on this Zerg’s body are not inferior to those of the Dragon Race. It is indeed worthy of being a creature from ancient times!”

Even though Janos was clamped against the wall and had difficulty breathing, he still did not forget to praise the corpse of the Zerg in front of him. There was not a trace of discomfort on his face, only excitement.

Vincent stood at the door and quickly said, “If you know it’s good stuff, quickly put it away! If you let this big guy out, it might cause Kurt to malfunction again!”

Janos heard Vincent’s reminder and realized that he had been a little rash. At the same time, he finally felt difficulty breathing and quickly put the Zerg corpse back into his storage ring.

When the Zerg disappeared, the room was already in a mess. Kurt had been squeezed into a corner. He suddenly opened his eyes.

“Mr. Vincent, you’re back!” greeted Kurt.

Vincent waved his hand and asked with concern, “How do you feel now? Is there anything wrong?”

Kurt shook his head and said, “When I was upgrading the parts, something went wrong and my whole body was out of control. But now I’m better, and my body has completed a full upgrade!”

“That’s good, you don’t know how dangerous it was just now…,” said Vincent as he nodded.

He then told Kurt what happened earlier.

Kurt did not have any lingering fear after hearing it, because he did not know what fear was, nor did he realize how terrifying death was because, for a robot, death was a very distant thing.

“I’m sorry, Mr. Vincent, I made you worry just now. In the future, I will be careful and won’t let such a thing happen again!”

Kurt reassured Vincent with a straight face.

Vincent then asked, “We want to teleport back to the Spirit Race. Can you prepare the teleportation device now?”

Kurt quickly said, “No problem. Space teleportation is my core ability. It won’t be canceled just because I upgraded!”

Vincent nodded and said, “Well, let’s prepare the teleportation now!”

Kurt quickly said, “Okay, I’ll prepare it now. We can activate the teleportation array in an hour!”

As there was still an hour left, Vincent wanted to inform everyone.

Janos suddenly flashed out of the room and grabbed Vincent. He said with a smile on his face, “Sir Vincent, I already have some ideas on how to use the Zerg. Let me use this time to tell you about it!”

Vincent did not take the Zerg to heart at that moment. He then said perfunctorily, “These materials have already been handed to you. You can forge them to your liking. You don’t need to ask me for my opinion!”

Janos said with a serious face, “How can that be? I’m just a craftsman. With good materials, I naturally want to personally forge them into great weapons. But the forged items must be returned to the original owner. If you don’t tell me what type of equipment you want, I can’t make decisions for you!”

Vincent saw how stubborn Janos was and knew that he could not refuse him, so he said, “Then you’ll come with me to the control hall. We’ll talk on the way!”

Janos immediately accepted and followed Vincent all the way to the control hall. He introduced some basic knowledge about craftsmanship to Vincent. At first, Vincent did not care, but the more he listened, the more he could not help but feel curious. He soon had a preliminary understanding of the Black Hole’s myriad worlds, the definition, and division of equipment levels.

Vincent sighed silently in his heart, “Universe-level, World-Destroying level… so it’s all weapons that are higher than the universe’s myriad worlds. In the Black Hole, the races have all agreed on a power level. This means that the scepter of the Ultimate Evil Lord, the Cosmic Thread of the Demon Race, and the Return Journey of the Dead in my hand have all reached the level of a divine weapon!”

Janos spoke again, “Lord Vincent, with my current level, I can forge an X-Class weapon. However, since I’m using an extremely rare material this time, I might even be able to raise the quality to the universe level! Therefore, at the beginning of forging, it’s crucial to decide on the appearance of the equipment, its usage, and the design of its special abilities. If anything goes wrong in the middle, it will affect the final quality of the equipment!”

Vincent could not help but think seriously for a while. He then said, “I want full-body armor. The main requirement is the defensive ability, but it has to be as light as possible and not hinder my movements. Can you do it?”

Janos thought for a while before nodding and saying, “That’s simple, leave it to me! I already have a preliminary idea of the special ability that this set of armor will contain, and I guarantee that you will be satisfied!”

“That’s good, I trust you!”

Vincent nodded and ended their conversation just as he approached the control room.

As soon as he entered the control room, Vincent smelled alcohol. He subconsciously glanced around, only to see that it was not Irene who was standing in front of the control panel, but Ebenezer, who was panicking.

Angelina and Lilis stood helplessly on the other side of the control panel.

Vincent walked forward and asked in surprise, “What’s going on? Who’s drinking in broad daylight?”

Ebenezer turned to look at Vincent, as if he had seen his savior, and quickly said, “Master, save me! I really don’t know how to fly a spaceship!”

Vincent frowned and asked, “Where’s Irene?”

Ebenezer quickly raised his hand and pointed to the corner where Angelina was. When Vincent walked past the control panel, he just happened to see Avril and Irene sitting in the corner, leaning against each other with drunken eyes. There were countless wine bottles scattered on the ground. He wondered how much they had drunk.

Avril pulled Irene and said incoherently, “Sister, listen to me! When you return to the Spirit World, you will definitely find a way to start training. The three of us have learned the divine body technique in the Spirit Race. When you have mastered it, not to mention Vincent, even the Ultimate Evil Lord will just be a lackey in front of you!”

Irene was so drunk that she could not speak. She smiled foolishly and nodded repeatedly, acknowledging Avril’s words.

Vincent walked up and raised his hand in front of Avril and Irene. He found that the two girls were already drunk and could not even see clearly. They did not even notice his arrival.

Vincent raised his head and asked Angelina, “What’s going on? Why are they drunk like this?”

Angelina pursed her lips and said with a smile, “Sister said that to subdue this kind of girl who likes to sulk, we must let her speak her mind. Drinking is the easiest way!”

Vincent asked with a blank look, “So they drank too much?”

Angelina nodded and added, “And their relationship has also improved!”

Vincent took a deep breath helplessly and said, “Since the only person who can fly a spaceship has drunk too much, then let’s temporarily give up the spaceship! Ebenezer, prepare to land. Later, I will ask Kurt to open the teleportation array, and everyone will be teleported to the Spirit World together!”

Ebenezer, who was in front of the control panel, nodded with a troubled expression. He sighed to himself, “God bless, let me find the button to land!”

After a series of prayers, Ebenezer raised his hand and pressed on his chosen button. In the end, the spaceship did not land as smoothly as he had imagined. Instead, it sped up and rushed toward the space barrier in front of him.

“Master, save me!”

Ebenezer had no choice but to ask Vincent for help.

At that moment, the spaceship was flying in the space tunnel. As there was only one straight route, it was not difficult to operate it. That was why Irene dared to hand the control panel to Ebenezer without worry.

However, at that moment, when the spaceship suddenly accelerated, its flight path changed. It changed direction and headed straight toward the space barrier on the side. If the spaceship crashed into the space barrier, the laws of space would automatically strengthen the barrier. Not only would the entire spaceship explode, but even the individuals on the spaceship would also not have a good ending.

Vincent immediately rushed to the control panel and looked at the space barrier outside the screen. He immediately took out his space token and quickly gave the order.

“Space barrier, open!”

Just before the spaceship was about to hit the space barrier, the transparent space barrier suddenly turned into a blurry space door. The spaceship exited the space tunnel and entered the Black Hole World.

However, the Black Hole World was not flat land. There were also mountains and black holes that occasionally appeared around it. There was still danger everywhere!

When Vincent saw this, he did not hesitate at all. He immediately shouted in a deep voice, “Shadow of Desolation!”

There were no changes inside the spaceship. However, in the Black Hole World outside the spaceship, a large amount of Black Hole energy had quietly gathered into an invisible figure.

The moment the figure was formed, fire spiritualization was automatically activated. It was as if a ball of fire had suddenly appeared in the Black Hole World.

The ball of fire immediately began to burn intensely and gradually expanded, finally forming an indomitable fire giant. It was Vincent’s ability, the Fire God Avatar!

The Fire God Avatar, which was summoned by the Shadow of Desolation, reached out its hands and firmly grabbed the spaceship. It used all its strength to stop the spaceship from charging forward. Before the spaceship was about to crash into a mountain, it successfully stopped the spaceship.

The Fire God Avatar then slowly placed the spaceship on the ground. The flames and shadows that filled the sky instantly disappeared as if they had never appeared.

The individuals in the spaceship were shocked as they could see everything that was happening outside through the screen. Their eyes were all focused on Vincent. The ability that he displayed was simply unbelievable.

No one dared to imagine how many strange situations they would face if they fought with Vincent in the Black Hole World!

Vincent heaved a sigh of relief and said to everyone, “Everyone, get off the ship!”

Lilis and Angelina supported Irene and Avril respectively. They followed Vincent to open the cabin door and exited the spaceship.

Ebenezer could not help but exclaim, “Oh my God! This is the first time I’ve felt safe on the land of the Black Hole World!”

Vincent did not pay attention to Ebenezer’s exclamations. Instead, he walked to Irene’s side, grabbed her hand that was carrying the storage ring, and kept the spaceship.

Vincent turned his head and said to Kurt, who had just stepped out of the spaceship, “Kurt, it’s up to you now!”

Kurt nodded. He tore apart the clothes on his chest and revealed the metal structure within his body. At the same time, a shining geometric crystal appeared.

The light from the crystal shone on the ground, and a milky-white space door slowly appeared.

“Everyone, this is the portal to the Spirit World. Everyone can set off now!”

Vincent immediately signaled to Ebenezer.

Ebenezer nodded. His arms instantly transformed into two blades. He then led everyone into the portal.

Harson and Daniel, who were also Shadow Demons, followed closely behind Ebenezer into the portal.

As the three of them were all Shadow Demons who were naturally good at fighting, they were in charge of clearing the way. They were good at navigating through unexpected incidents. Although Vincent had told them that the Spirit Race had been destroyed, they were aware that there were still all sorts of dangers in the Spirit World.

No one knew how many wanderers are out there in the Black Hole World. Those wanderers could be creatures who had strong greed for a desolate world without a master or a weak race!

After waiting for a moment, Kurt, who was maintaining the portal, said, “Mr. Vincent, I’ve detected their safety signal in the Spirit World. Everyone can continue to teleport over!”

Vincent nodded and said to the others, “Everyone, hurry up and teleport. I will be in charge of the rear!”

Everyone did not hesitate and walked into the portal. Vincent stood beside Kurt with his hands behind his back and a long knife hanging from his waist. He looked around carefully and did not dare to be careless.

Only after everyone had teleported away did Vincent and Kurt enter the portal together. As the illusory light gradually faded, Vincent, who had regained his sight, once again saw the world of the Spirit Race.

This world was 80% to 90% similar to human civilization, but its fate was tragic. Vincent could not help but feel a little emotional.

“Irene, this is your home!”

Vincent turned his head to Irene, only to find that she had unknowingly fallen asleep in Angelina’s arms.

He shook his head helplessly and said to the others, “The Spirit Race has long been destroyed. The town we are in now is only one of the ruins left behind by the Spirit Race. Everyone can check the surrounding houses and choose a few that are relatively sturdy for us to stay temporarily. Ebenezer and I will be responsible for patrolling the surroundings. Be careful of any foreign races that might suddenly appear around us!”

“Yes!”

Everyone replied in unison. They then dispersed and started to get busy according to Vincent’s instructions.

Vincent led Ebenezer to the tallest building in the town, which was the top of the tower where the seven God statues stood. He looked at the roads, mountains, and the Black Hole in the distance outside the city.

Ebenezer looked down at some of the streets that had been destroyed in the city and reported nervously, “Master, there seem to be signs of a fight here, and it looks like it just happened recently!”

Vincent glanced at it casually and said softly, “Don’t make a fuss. It was left behind when I fought with the scavengers of the capital of Ultimate Evil. It was not too long ago, but the experience could make one sigh!”

Ebenezer nodded and said, “Master, I feel that there is some kind of power under our feet. It feels very ancient, but very powerful!”

Vincent said even more calmly, “Once again, there’s no need to make a fuss. Those are the statues of the seven gods worshipped by the Spirit Race. These statues have the divine power to bestow the Spirit Race with physical skills. My lovers and I had a fortuitous encounter here!”

Ebenezer immediately continued, “Master, look, that seems to be the Demon Race!”

Vincent replied, “Ebenezer, there’s no need to make a fuss! Wait, what? Demon… Demon Race? How could the Demon Race be here?”

Vincent originally wanted to smile and brush off Ebenezer, but in the end, he was shocked instead. He quickly looked in the direction Ebenezer was pointing at.

He saw dozens of figures suddenly appear in the distant Black Hole. Those figures had dark purple skin, demonic wings on their backs, and demonic horns on their heads. They were the demons that Vincent and the others were most familiar with!

Vincent frowned and sighed deeply, “As far as I know, Gajero’s invasion has long spread to other parts of the Black Hole World. Why would the demons suddenly appear here?”

Ebenezer shook his head with a blank expression and asked, “Master, what should we do next?”

Vincent narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice, “Ask everyone to hide for now. I’ll wait for these demons to arrive at the city gate and inquire about their purpose of this trip!”

Ebenezer nodded and turned to jump down from the tower. Vincent walked to the back of the tower and jumped to the ground. He quickly ran to the city gate and quietly hid on the city tower, carefully observing the pair of demons who were approaching from afar.

Vincent had also come to the Spirit World from the Black Hole. This small town was the first thing he noticed when he arrived in the Spirit World. Therefore, he believed that this group of demons would definitely pass by this town through the city gates.

The result was just as Vincent had expected. The group of demons quickly flew toward the bottom of the small city and swaggered into the city gate.

Vincent secretly counted how many demons there were and found that there was a total of 30 demons. Moreover, judging from the aura they gave off, their strength was between level 40 and level 50 creatures. Their strength was similar to that of the demon team stationed in the Elf World, but it was slightly uneven.

At this moment, Vincent heard the conversation of the demons below.

“General, this time the race leader withdrew us from the front battlefield and sent us to this Black Hole region that has already been conquered. What is the purpose of this?”

“There is no need for you to inquire about such things. We only need to carry out the orders of the race leader! The mission of this trip is to carefully investigate the Spirit World and see if there are any surviving spirits. At the same time, check the nearby worlds to see if there are any races similar to the Spirit Race. If there are, all of them will be annihilated!”

“Yes, I will obey the order of the race leader!”

As the 30 demons stormed into the city, Vincent, who was hiding on the city tower, immediately turned pale with fright.

Based on the orders received by these demons, it was very likely that Gajero had noticed his existence. He sent his subordinates to find the races that are similar to him in a timely manner and exterminate them as soon as possible to avoid any future trouble!

After all, Vincent had destroyed several of the demons’ plans in succession, so it was only natural for Gajero to take revenge on him. However, Vincent did not expect Gajero to send a small team to take revenge on him. They had no advantage in terms of strength!

“Since you have voluntarily delivered yourselves to our doorstep, then none of you will leave today!”

Vincent slowly stood up from the city tower and looked at the 30 demons below. He smiled as he drew the long knife from his waist.

In the past, Vincent was unable to resist the demons despite learning about the evil deeds of the Demon Race. He could only destroy their plans to invade other worlds in secret. That was because Vincent was too weak and did not have the ability to fight against Gajero. He did not have the ability to fight against the Demon Race head-on.

However, the current Vincent had become stronger. He had also become more confident and did not find the need to avoid any opponents. As long as Gajero did not come personally, Vincent believed that he could fight against any demons head-on!

The few demons standing at the back of the team could not help but shudder. They sighed and said with a blank expression, “Strange, why do I feel that it is very dangerous?”

The demon general who was walking at the front of the team turned his head and said with a smile, “Look at you cowards! You are all demons who have followed the race leader to conquer a few worlds. How can you be afraid of an empty city? Be careful!”

The demon general wanted to tease his subordinates. However, before he could speak any further, he suddenly saw a black figure falling rapidly from the sky. It then transformed into a ball of fire in an instant.

The three demons who stood at the end of the line did not have time to react. Their heads were instantly separated under the general’s terrified gaze. When their heads left their bodies, their eyes were still filled with confusion.

After Vincent activated the sixth layer of the Flaming Sun Divine Body, his speed had reached a whole new realm. At the same time, his Return Journey of the Dead had been successfully sharpened. Moreover, it had a special effect that prevent wounds from healing after being hit. This made it impossible for the three demons to recover within a short period of time, even if they relied on their race’s talent!

After successfully decapitating the three demons with one slash, Vincent did not hesitate at all. He waved his blade and slashed the three demon bodies in front of him dozens of times until he heard three faint muffled sounds. He then turned around and escaped into the city.

The three demon cores in the demons’ bodies had been cut into pieces. They turned into a ball of demonic aura and began to disperse into the air.

The other demons only had shocked expressions on their faces. They were not sad after their companions died. Some even opened their mouths and sucked in the Demon World aura that had dispersed to increase their own strength.

The leading demon general looked in the direction where Vincent had disappeared and said angrily, “It seems that there are indeed remnants of the Spirit Race! Find him for me and tear him apart!”
