Chapter 283: Summoning the Seventieth Demon God, Seere
Although the Demon Gods are in the Abyss, they are divided into many factions and forces, such as the Seventy-two Demon Gods, the Fallen Angel Legion of Lucifer, some gods of the old days, and so on.
Among them, Mother of Spores Jubis belongs to the gods of the old days.
The gods of the old days are primarily characterized by madness and greed; they fight each other madly and scramble for territory frantically.
The most active among them is none other than Mother of Spores Jubis.
She is greedy and mad, wanting to treat all the humans on Blue Star as the best hotbed for cultivating Spores.
Ye Bai guesses that there are two possibilities for why Spores cannot multiply on a large scale in the Abyss; one possibility is that there are too many natural enemies in the Abyss that can restrain them.
The other possibility is that the harsh environment of the Abyss restrains the Spores from continuing to grow.
Therefore, Zhang Dashan feels that summoning a Demon God is not unreasonable.
As long as the report is filed in time and sufficient vigilance is maintained, turning the power of the Demon God into one's own power is an achievement.
"Ye Bai, we have chosen a location in an Underground Laboratory in the Imperial Capital to summon the two Demon Gods."
"This laboratory is very large, so there is no problem using it to summon the Demon Gods."
Zhang Dashan had already selected the place quickly.
"As for the offerings for summoning the Demon Gods, just write down what needs to be prepared, and I will arrange for people to come and get the offerings ready, so you don't have to worry too much."
Ye Bai immediately wrote down the offerings needed to summon Dankalabi.
Seeing Ye Bai write out the list so familiarly, Zhang Dashan understood that Ye Bai must have summoned Dankalabi many times in secret.
"Ye Bai, when you gaze into the Abyss, the Abyss also gazes at you; the action of force is mutual, so do not become too obsessed with the power of the Demon Gods."
"Otherwise, it is very likely that you will be assimilated by the Abyss and become an anchor point for the Abyss yourself."
"Even if there is that opportunity to reach the sky in a single step, it depends on whether you can swallow it, and whether you will turn into something neither human nor ghost."
"Ye Bai, I trust you fully, but the methods of the Demon Gods are impossible to guard against."
Zhang Dashan warned pointedly.
"As for the offerings to summon Seere, this is my first time summoning, so I am not very clear about it; I might need to prepare many offerings."
Zhang Dashan nodded: "I understand, I will be responsible for preparing this."
"It is best to choose nighttime to summon a Demon God."
"Go back and get some good rest first; when night comes, this ring will transport you to the Underground Laboratory."
Zhang Dashan took out a pitch-black ring and placed it in the palm of Ye Bai's hand.
Ye Bai knew very well the urgency of time.
Moreover, he also had a lingering knot in his heart, which was whether Jiang Dongsheng had been controlled by the Spores.
He could not have seen it wrong; a demonic mark had appeared between Jiang Dongsheng's eyebrows.
Could it mean that Jiang Dongsheng had already become a host for the Mother of Spores?
Thinking of this, Ye Bai still said a few words to Zhang Dashan, who was about to leave: "Grandmaster, I have an idea."
"I want to take Jiang Dongsheng and Zhang Tianliang with me."
Zhang Dashan raised his eyebrows, signaling for Ye Bai to continue.
"I want to let the Demon God take a look at these two guys to see if there are any residual Spores in their bodies."
"If even the Demon God confirms there are no residues, it means that the Flame Potion I researched is effective."
"This way, the Flame Potion can be promoted vigorously."
"We will save more time on potion research and development."
Zhang Dashan nodded: "No problem, just do as you say."
"Ye Bai, I trust you fully; this time going to Nantianmen, you are taking a great risk to your life."
"So the accompanying personnel must also be thoroughly checked."
"If they are controlled by Abyss Spores, it would be a complete joke."
When night came and the moon was high, the night was like water, and everything was silent.
Zhang Dashan led Ye Bai, Jiang Dongsheng, and Zhang Tianliang down the elevator leading to the Underground Laboratory.
Jiang Dongsheng and Zhang Tianliang both wore a Bracelet on their wrists.
This Bracelet could block the connection between a Pet Beast Master and their Pet Beast Space.
Jiang Dongsheng and Zhang Tianliang stood behind Ye Bai like bodyguards.
The elevator descended slowly, its speed increasing, and before long, a buzzing sound filled Ye Bai's ears, making his eardrums ache slightly.
"Hahaha, this is a high-speed elevator; everyone feels a little slight discomfort the first time they ride it, you'll get used to it."
Zhang Dashan laughed heartily.
A few minutes later, the elevator stopped slowly, and as the elevator door opened,
the gate of the Research Institute appeared inside.
The moment they took their first step out of the gate, countless infrared dots shot onto their bodies.
If they made even the slightest rash move, they would be riddled with holes by laser guns.
At this moment, a large amount of highly irritating white mist sprayed out from the gate.
The air was filled with the smell of disinfectant.
After careful disinfection, the gate finally opened slowly.
This process was repeated three times.
Only then did they appear in an open space comparable in size to an Arena.
"Sorry, this Underground Laboratory is very important to Yan Country; to avoid exposing the content of the research inside, I can only bring you this far."
"The offerings for summoning the Demon Gods have already been prepared."
At this moment, Zhang Dashan took out a remote control.
There are a total of two switches on the remote control, one red and one blue.
"Ye Bai, the blue switch is for the sacrifice prepared to summon Dankalabi, and the red switch is for the sacrifice prepared to summon Seere."
"This Clone of mine will stay here the entire time to protect your safety."
Only after Zhang Dashan said this did Ye Bai realize that the guy in front of him was actually a Clone of Zhang Dashan.
It just grinned, transforming into the appearance of a Hellfire.
"Come, summon the Abyss Demon God."
Ye Bai looked at this grinning Hellfire; oh my god, this guy looks more like a Demon God, doesn't he?
The sacrifice for summoning Dankalabi this time was not that simple; it used the Crystal Core of a Tier 6 Pet Beast.
Furthermore, that beautiful creature resembling a Green Lu An was also a Tier 5 Exotic Beast; this type of Exotic Beast possesses an appearance similar to a Green Lu An but lacks the strength of one.
Its ornamental value is greater than its practical value.
Even the blood of the Exotic Beast used to draw the Magic Array was chosen from the best.
Ye Bai drew the Magic Array very smoothly.
As the final stroke fell, black energy surged.
Ripples appeared within the Magic Array, and endless black energy emerged from it, gradually condensing in mid-air to form the shape of a pentagram.
The pentagram extended a pair of hands condensed from black energy; it grabbed the Green Lu An in one go and began to examine it closely.
"I quite like your sacrifice!"
"You always prepare it so attentively."
"If I hadn't seen the line of faith above your head, I would have thought you were my fanatic."
Dankalabi floated in the air, looking down at Ye Bai from a high position, and it emitted a muffled voice.
"Great Lord Dankalabi."
"Please allow me to admire your knowledge."
"The purpose of my summoning you is that I have heard your knowledge is very profound, and I hope you can preach, teach, and resolve my doubts."
Ye Bai stated his request. Dankalabi likes it most when others ask it for advice, and these words made Dankalabi beam with joy.
"Come, state your needs."
"For the sake of the sacrifice, as long as I know it, I can tell you."
Dankalabi is really easy to talk to.
So Ye Bai summoned the Summer Grass Ant.
"My Lord, I just want to know where the Spore that infected this Summer Grass Ant originated."
When Dankalabi saw the appearance of the Summer Grass Ant, it immediately recoiled.
A look of shock and fear appeared in its pupils, along with a trace of disgust.
"How could the Spore of the Mother of Spores Jubis appear here?"
"Does that lunatic want to turn Blue Star into its breeding ground?"
A look of wariness appeared in Dankalabi's eyes, and it directly released divine power; once contaminated by an Abyss Spore, this Clone of Dankalabi would also be infected.
Only after Ye Bai put the Summer Grass Ant away did Dankalabi's expression improve significantly.
"You want to ask how to avoid being infected by an Abyss Spore, right?"
"I know how to solve it, but I cannot tell you directly."
"Because walls have ears."
"Once I tell you this method, the Mother of Spores will release a large number of Spores in my territory."
"I don't want to become her enemy."
"However, I can tell you that where vipers breed, there must be an antidote within seven steps."
After seeing Dankalabi's extremely wary expression, Ye Bai did not say anything more.
Instead, he pulled Jiang Dongsheng and Zhang Tianliang in front of Dankalabi.
"Lord Dankalabi, these are my friends who were once infected by Spores; I would like to ask you to take a look and see if there are any residual Spores in their bodies."
Dankalabi's five eyes shot out a substance like infrared rays, scanning back and forth over the bodies of Jiang Dongsheng and Zhang Tianliang.
After a long while, it revealed a shocked expression: "There are no residual Spores in his body; it has been purged very cleanly."
At this time, Ye Bai continued to ask: "I once saw a mushroom-shaped magic pattern on his forehead."
"Isn't it true that those who are eroded by Spores and form magic patterns cannot be saved?"
Ye Bai asked the second question.
After hearing Ye Bai's words, Dankalabi consumed even more divine power, sweeping back and forth through Jiang Dongsheng's body.
"No, it should be that after the Abyss Spore was suppressed by the Crystal Wall of Blue Star, its power was weakened by nearly seventy percent."
"If it were truly an Abyss Spore invading a human body, it could gradually erode the human body in just a single breath."
"Moreover, after he was eroded by the Spore, he has already developed immunity."
"Kid, every time I see you, you bring me different surprises."
"I specialize in identifying treasures; if you have any needs, summon me again."
"I have already remembered your aura; you won't need to set up a Magic Array the next time you summon me."
"Just use a small pebble to draw my magic pattern on the ground, clap your hands softly, and say 'summon Dankalabi', and I will descend here."
For the last two sentences, Dankalabi used the ability of telepathy to speak to Ye Bai.
Afterward, its ferocious face turned into countless black smoke and dissipated in mid-air; before dissipating, Dankalabi was wearing a smile.
"Phew, through Dankalabi's identification, your suspicions are fully cleared."
"It seems the Flame Potion is still effective."
"Next, what needs to be summoned is a brand-new Demon God, one of the Seventy-two Demon Gods who signed a contract with Solomon, the Seventy-first Pillar Demon God, Seere."
"Chief Jiang, Senior Zhang, please move a bit further away."
According to the records in existing literature, Seere's true form is a handsome man riding a winged pegasus.
He masters the principles of how things operate, can circle the world in the blink of an eye, and can reveal the location of thieves and their hidden treasures.
In other words, if Seere is happy, he will grant endless rewards and tell you where a treasure is hidden.
Ye Bai looked at the offerings Zhang Dashan had people prepare; they were quite sufficient, prepared in every aspect.
Inside were fine wine, delicious food, precious swords, and exquisite porcelain; it was prepared quite thoroughly.
Seere's magic crest is a palm with an eye on it, holding a wooden mallet in its hand.
Summoning Seere also requires a prayer, a prayer that praises Seere.
"Great God of the Abyss."
"You used a sharp sword to cut through the turbidity of the Abyss."
"You caused the horse of light to descend into the Abyss."
"Holiness is your synonym, and the Truth Eye is held in your hands."
"You are the messenger of justice, and you will surely bring the judgment of justice."
The prayer ended here.
Ye Bai directly added a sentence.
"I offer fine wine and delicacies to bring joy to your tongue."
"I offer a precious sword to clear the thorns and brambles for you."
"I offer exquisite porcelain, for you possess the reputation of the God of Art."
"Descend, great God of the Abyss, Seere."
Black light flared, and chilling winds gusted.
A large amount of black mist appeared on the Magic Array, and the fine wine and delicious food flew straight into the Magic Array.
Immediately, the sound of swallowing and chewing came through.
A handsome man with silver hair and a long silver horn on his head appeared.
He gently wiped the grease from the corner of his mouth with a silk handkerchief, his deep eyes looking toward Ye Bai.
"I know you."
"The owner of the Memory Palace."
"Although this is our first time meeting, I have been watching you for a long time."
His clear and bright eyes seemed capable of seeing through Ye Bai's heart.
"I am very satisfied with the offerings you presented."
"State your request."
"If it is something I can satisfy."
"That guy Dankalabi just left; if he could have solved it, you wouldn't have summoned me."
Ye Bai nodded: "In fact, I want to learn about the Abyss Spore."
"Is there anything that can counter the Abyss Spore?"
A look of wariness also appeared in Seere's eyes: "I know the reason why Dankalabi left."
"I cannot speak of this thing."
"But I can give you a hint: the Abyss Spore is much the same as the spores on Blue Star."
"You can start your research from that aspect."
Ye Bai nodded; he hadn't expected to get the answer from Seere all at once.
"Then my next question is, how to identify humans infected by the Abyss Spore!"
