From Abyssal Invasion to Bursting Stars with a Single Sword-Chapter 50 Source Essence Sacrifice

The Winged Demon Commander entered the dungeon, sweeping his gaze over the four cells, and commanded in the Demon Language.

Although the voice coming from his mouth was obscure and difficult to understand, Lu Heng could comprehend what he meant to convey.

Not only Lu Heng, but the other people in the dungeon could also understand.

Because when they were transported into the Abyss World, the data prompt included the addition of the Abyss Common Language.

And the command that the Winged Demon Commander had just issued was clearly, "Load all the offerings onto the cart, and send them to the Barton Temple."

The team of Demon Servants entered the dungeon and respectfully saluted the Winged Demon Commander, "As you command, Lord Sagers."

The Demon Servants opened the doors of the cells, and all ten people from the dungeon were herded out and locked in the prison carts.

The prison carts were made of an unknown material, emitting a strange heat.

The carts were pulled by Hell Two-headed Giant Lizards.

These Giant Lizards were incredibly large; with four claws on the ground, their heads could be raised over two meters high, with bodies six meters long and weighing seven to eight hundred catties.

The ten people from the dungeon were loaded onto two prison carts.

The Demon Servants, holding the reins of the Hell Two-headed Giant Lizards, began to lead the way to the Barton Temple.

Winged Demon Commander Sagers did not personally escort the convoy but instead assigned a Winged Demon Wizard to be in charge of the escort.

On the prison cart, Perceiver Liu Qichen whispered, "Was what that Winged Demon Commander said about transporting offerings?"

"Yes, we are the offerings," Lin Zeyu pointed to himself and then to the cart in front.

In fact.

Lu Heng had deduced even more information.

One of the main quests in the Abyss Battlefield was:

"2. Attack the demon team transporting the Source Essence Sacrifices."

Unfortunately, all ten human Superpower Users on the two prison carts were Source Essence Sacrifices.

Indeed, this also indirectly confirmed something: the Superpower Users who were conscripted had all obtained Professional Source Material.

Because all ten people had free state Source Material on them, they were captured by the Demon Servants to be used as Source Material Sacrifices, to be offered to the Evil God Barton.

"The prison cart has already left the camp. The team of Demon Servants in charge of escorting us is not too difficult to deal with. Let's say hello to our fellow comrades in the cart ahead and make our move together," the burly Strength Superpower User wanted to act quickly.

"Yes, let's annihilate them," another person echoed.

Perceiver Liu Qichen was about to communicate with the Superpower Users in the front cart to discuss acting together.

Lu Heng frowned and cautioned, "Wait a moment."

"What are we waiting for? The prison cart has already left the camp. With only these few Demon Servants, are you still afraid?" The Strength Superpower User glanced at Lu Heng with a hint of contempt.

That's the problem with temporary teams; everyone has their own ideas, and it's difficult to achieve unity.

Everything must be explained clearly.

Lu Heng had no choice but to spread his hands and explain, "The Winged Demon Commander is not in charge of the escort, so the escort team is indeed not difficult to deal with.

"However, the Winged Demon Commander's flying speed is very fast. As soon as a battle breaks out here, he can quickly arrive on the scene.

"Moreover, that Winged Demon Commander's level must be over Level 20, he is a High Rank demon.

"I don't mind, but if the Winged Demon Commander catches up, I estimate that half of us will die."

After hearing Lu Heng's explanation, the others raised their eyebrows, understanding the danger.

Lin Zeyu picked up the conversation, saying, "Listen to him, let's wait a bit longer. Tell the friends in the cart ahead to wait as well."

Strength-based Superpower Users didn't oppose any further after all, Lu Heng's reasons were plain and could be understood after a little thought.

At the current stage,

the Superpower Users who had been teleported in probably peaked at level 10. Even if someone's level was unusually high, reaching level 11 would be the limit.

Facing a level 20 Winged Demon Commander, there was no chance of victory.

After consulting with the people in the prison cart ahead, Liu Qichen turned and said, "They agree to wait a bit longer. Actually, I think this Abyss Battlefield shouldn't be too difficult since it's just a ten-person scale. Everyone has been conscripted before, right? You should know that the number of people scales with the difficulty."

Lu Heng shook his head, reminding him, "This Abyss Battlefield is not a ten-person scale."

The few people inside the prison cart, except Lin Zeyu, all showed surprised expressions, "How do you know it's not a ten-person scale?"

Lu Heng looked toward Lin Zeyu and smiled, "You should know as well, right?"

Lin Zeyu was stunned for a moment, he did indeed know that this Abyss Battlefield was not a ten-person scale, so he did not deny it.

"What do you mean?" the other three didn't understand.

Lu Heng continued to explain, "When we were in the dungeon, he said he came in leading a team, you all remember, don't you?"

Liu Qichen nodded, "I remember, did he lie then?"

Lu Heng smiled and continued, "That's not it. I believe he really did lead a team in. But well…

"Everyone must think that the team he mentioned is in that prison cart ahead, right?

"In reality, the people he brought with him are not in that prison cart ahead, but somewhere else, am I right?"

At the end, Lu Heng turned his head to look at Lin Zeyu.

Lin Zeyu sighed and admitted, "Alright. I didn't intend to hide it. I really did lead a team in, but I have no idea where they are now.

"Based on this fact, one can indeed confirm that this Abyss Battlefield is not just ten people in scale, but definitely larger.

"As for how much larger, I don't know.

"According to the information gathered previously about the Abyss Battlefield, the number of participants is generally a multiple of five.

"There have been battles of 5, 10, 15 people… My intelligence shows that the largest Abyss Battlefield ever encountered had a scale of 20 people.

"So, I think the scale of this Abyss Battlefield should be more than 20 people."

Lu Heng shook his head, deciding to add one more word of caution, "You're still thinking too conservatively. I suggest we expect the number of participants to be much higher, 60, 70, or even 100.

"After all, this world is the Burial Ground of the Evil God, and our task is to prevent the Resurrection Ceremony of the Evil God.

"Though the Challenge Task can be ignored, it at least suggests that the task is leading us to prevent the resurrection of the Evil God.

"Since it's about stopping the Resurrection Ceremony of the Evil God, it's not something a dozen or two dozen people can accomplish.

"Besides, everyone has deliberately avoided mentioning one word from the beginning, the fact this Abyss Battlefield is actually a battle for the Source Material.

"We all carry Source Material, which is why we've become the Source Essence Sacrifice for the resurrection ritual of the Evil God Barton."

After listening to Lu Heng's words, the four couldn't help but feel a tightness in their chests.

If the scale of this Abyss Battlefield really was 100 people, then the degree of danger was somewhat terrifying.

Lu Heng observed the expressions of the four and put it bluntly, "Now that we've spoken openly, let's not hide our intentions. The most direct way to obtain Source Material is to attack the Demon Servant convoy transporting the Source Essence Sacrifice. If we fight among ourselves, given the danger level of this Abyss Battlefield, expect a group annihilation."

Lin Zeyu raised his voice in agreement, "I concur. It's a Danger Level 4, and with the existence of an Evil God in this world, even dead, it's enough to cause a group wipe. I hope everyone can form an alliance and work together to try and complete the Challenge Task."

The other three nodded in agreement as well, but what was really going through their minds remained unknown.

At times like this, anyone daring to disagree would immediately become a target for all.

Therefore, the so-called alliance wasn't all that solid at the moment.

Lu Heng, eager to find Su Muyu, estimated the time they had left the camp and spoke up, "We are far enough away from the camp, we can make our move now."
