Saving the World in an Apocalypse-Style Text Game-Chapter 983 - 458: Demon King Legion, Immortal Soul

[After you left, Rona, who couldn’t see the presence of ’the Librarian,’ sat quietly in the library meditating and waiting in silence, according to your instructions...]

[You went to the Abyss for assistance, to bring back hundreds of Demon Kings to the surface, and even if you could eventually reach the headquarters of the Polar Star Association in the Imperial City, how many of the Demon Kings would survive the pursuit and siege of the Schools to become your allies?]

[Moreover, under the siege and pursuit of the Schools, by the time you lead the numerous Demon Kings back to the headquarters of the Polar Star Association, it would probably be a matter of several days later...]

[...]

[...]

[The best scenario it envisioned was your successful call for help and your smooth return, evading the Schools’ siege, but it estimated that the number of Demon Kings remaining would not be many, and likely each would be in a pitiful state with injuries.]

[A lesser scenario involved the many Demon Kings not surviving the long-distance pursuit and being killed en route to the Imperial City from the surface, with only you avoiding the ordeal due to the ’Star Realm Shift’ escape magic.]

[The worst scenario would be not just the many Demon Kings dying in the siege of the Schools but even you failing to escape pursuit, being captured alive, and imprisoned by the Schools...]

[’Rona’ definitely did not hope for the worst to happen, but if it really did occur, it was already mentally prepared to rescue you from the Schools...]

[...]

[...]

[To its surprise, it didn’t have to wait long before it heard the sound of the wooden door being opened and saw you returning to the library...]

[The scene of your return was entirely different from what it had imagined...]

[You returned in your Demon form with horns, not followed by any Demon Kings, not even one wounded.]

[You were carrying a huge painting as tall as a person on your shoulders, gracefully walking into the library...]

[Rona was familiar with this painting, the ’Cage of the Stars’ transfer painting used by the Polar Star Association to confine various living materials...]

[’Rona’ realized the situation and exclaimed, so that’s it...]

[You leaned the painting against the wall, reached out to touch the canvas, and then entered it...]

[Soon, under the astonished gaze of ’the Librarian,’ you came back out of the painting, followed by one powerful Demon King after another, each with a different form...]

[Considering the capacity of the library, you even specifically excluded those Demon Kings that were particularly large from the support team.]

[Even so, when only about half of the Demon Kings had come out in single file, the library was so crammed that there was no place to even set a foot down.]

[The ’Demon Shaman’ immediately ordered the Demon Kings to lift the useless tall bookshelves and throw them out of the library, along with the dense books on them...]

[Without the space occupied by the bookshelves, the other half of the Demon Kings were finally able to continue emerging from the painting...]

[...]

[Finally, when the library could no longer accommodate any more Demon Kings and there were still a few left in the painting, the ’Demon Shaman’ looked towards the conspicuously empty wicker chaise lounge...]

[It casually picked up the bothersome chaise lounge, threw it out of the library, and managed to squeeze one more Demon King in...]

[The ’Demon Shaman’ finally completed the task and respectfully said to you, ’Honoured Son of the Abyss, wherever your sword points, that is the direction of the Demon Clan’s charge!’]

[You nodded in approval and said to the ’Librarian,’ who was already stunned like a wooden chicken, ’Now you officially accept the special trial, and you can open the Teleportation Gate.’]

[Cramped among the many Demon Kings, the ’Librarian’ opened its mouth, finding itself squeezed off the floor, able now to sleep standing without a chaise lounge.]

[And you, using the crowded conditions as an opportunity, boldly squeezed in next to the well-figured female Great Sage ’Rona.’]

Lin Xun, after teleporting to the Second Capital, did not immediately head to the Abyss, but first made a stop at ’Coleman’s Workshop.’

The Master Coleman was still in seclusion, so he had to give up the idea of using the trap teleportation device.

As the trap teleportation device was effectively a convenient entrance to a painting, without such a facility, he instead took up the physical ’Cage of the Stars’ transfer painting and headed straight for the Abyss.

After explaining his intentions to the Demon Shaman, the group of Demon Kings, their blood boiling and their will to fight surging, entered the painting willingly with his assistance.

Then he used ’Star Realm Shift’ again to return to the Polar Star Association, traveling at full speed, barely delaying any time on the way.

[The ’Librarian’s’ expression was complex; of course, your actions couldn’t be considered a violation of the rules, you were simply making reasonable use of them.]

[Having nearly a hundred Demon Kings willing to join you in the trial to intercept a Divine Level ’Executor’ was a result of your own in-Chapter operation and strategy, your own prowess.]

[Moreover, as your ’Exclusive Customer Service,’ he should favor and assist you within reasonable rules, he had no reason to oppose such an action that seemed like cheating but was, in fact, reasonable and compliant...]

[The ’Library Management’ didn’t know what to say, and only managed to raise its Magic Wand amidst the crowd, as a deep blue Teleportation Gate appeared out of thin air...]

[He thought for a moment, before you and the numerous Demon Kings entered the trial, he said one last thing to you, ’Clever Apostle, using the strength of others to complete any Game Process will accordingly reduce the reward, and the special trial is no exception.’] 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮

[Although the likelihood of passing this trial without external assistance was indeed extremely slim.]
