Chapter 725: Chapter 654: Altar Chapter 725: Chapter 654: Altar “The compound five is stored on another ship, but only Steele knows the warehouse password,”
Ohno-ki was also a seasoned veteran, so when Tao Yu leaked so information, he imdiately knew what the other party was after.
Therefore, while Tao Yu was using Divination to guide the Holanders out to find children, he had already gathered all the intelligence he could.
He organized every aspect flawlessly.
In fact, with the strength of Ohno-ki’s Dust Release, he could have attempted to crack the warehouse, but considering the risk of accidents, he decided to wait until Tao Yu returned before explaining the situation.
“Additionally, there are quite a number of experts and research personnel related to compound five over there, but according to them, the factory manufacturing compound five has already been occupied by the Burning Legion.
There is an experintal manager right here, perhaps you could ask him.”
Ohno-ki’s arrangents were indeed proper, after all, with age cos experience.
Tao Yu was very satisfied with the performance of this elderly gentleman.
...
The Holanders had military might and were slowly starting to be branded with ideology, with the chance of being transford into true Chosen Ones.
And with Ohno-ki to provide plans and strategies by his side, many problems could be resolved…
Shortly after, a small elderly man in a white lab coat and wearing glasses ca before Tao Yu and provided so relevant explanations.
“Compound five requires a rare mineral substance.
Though the raw materials are scarce, they are still obtainable.
“The most troubleso issue is that the equipnt for synthesis is currently in the area controlled by the Burning Legion.
Considering the present state of global regression, if those pieces of equipnt are not well-protected, we can forget about production for several years.
And currently, there is only one effective compound five manufacturing workshop, which may be related to a special terrestrial magnetic field of Earth…”
The little old man’s words made Tao Yu nod in understanding.
The situation in Zombie World actually clarified a lot.
So genuinely sophisticated instrunts are incredibly difficult to restore, and this is with the help of compatible spare parts from the World of Avatar.
And as compound five was the core of this world, it was very likely to be a unique manufacturing thod exclusive to this World.
So, those pieces of equipnt really did need rescuing…
“Then, where is the factory located, and do you still know the current situation?”
“In Massachusetts, Milford.”
The research manager quickly responded.
anwhile, a Holander who had just settled his son and ca over heard this and interjected,
“Oh, I know that place; my first battle with the High Demons was there.
Back then, Steele wanted to rescue that area, probably for this reason, right?
However, that place is tricky; those Demons seem to have made it a center as well, with a large Altar…”
The words of the Holander caused Tao Yu’s mind to stir slightly, and then with a sweep of his fingers, a Hollow image began to form in the air, shaping into the rough appearance of an Altar.
“Is the Altar this shape?”
“Eh?
It seems to look like this, how co, have you seen it?”
The Holander took a look and then quickly nodded in confirmation, informing Tao Yu as well.
This was an Altar for summoning Demons through the Distorted Void, information he had gleaned from communing with several Dreadlords.
Currently, it seed that only one had been built.
Was that the chosen location?
A coincidence?
Unlikely…
“Just like their invasion of Azeroth, where they liked to use the Sunwell as an energy source, although this place can’t compare to Azeroth, that location is probably an important site, similar to Mount Doom in the Magic Ring World…”
Tao Yu pondered in his heart.
In order to produce compound five, the location was probably an issue besides the materials ntioned by the expert.
Is this what he referred to as the magnetic field…
“`
If that was the case, the high command of the Burning Legion had seen its numbers halved, and they had also encountered attacks from the Holander.
It was highly likely that General Zaka himself would be personally stationed there.
Protecting that equipnt would be a bit tricky…
…
Massachusetts, Milford.
What was once a tranquil city now seed lifeless, the air heavy with the scent of sulfur and the acrid sll of burning.
A mass of ragged human laborers were busily constructing sothing here.
Many buildings had been directly destroyed by the demons, and using the debris as materials, they moved like ants towards an industrial park outside the city.
Besides manual transport, those who could drive were also operating excavators and trucks to transport materials.
The slavery-like manual transportation, coupled with the machinery nearby and the demonic guards overseeing the work, created a stark and contrasting scene.
And there, within that industrial park, was a grand Altar, over the size of a football field, slowly being perfected by the ant-like human laborers.
The Blood Pool at the edge of the Altar was bubbling and burping, within which one could see severed limbs and debris, emitting a rank stench.
The laborers passing by dared not take a second glance, their legs going weak just from passing by.
In addition, many green fires were lit around the edge of the Altar, seemingly forming a sinister pattern.
A huge Abyssal Lord, with a body like an elephant and a humanoid upper half, was currently standing atop the Altar, coldly observing the ant-like human laborers.
In his hand, he held a double-sided blade over ten ters long, still dripping with unfresh blood.
His grotesque form and aura were enough to deter the living; his very presence brought imnse pressure to the surroundings.
“You humans really can’t be trusted.
You made such earnest promises through communication last ti, yet now most have been exposed.”
The Abyssal Lord’s voice was deep and hoarse.
Beside him stood a human man clad in black armor.
With brown hair and a slightly unkempt beard conveying a sense of desolation, his armor had so curious slots and his eyes held a weary look.
As a human standing next to the Abyssal Lord, he showed no sign of fear, and the manner in which the Abyssal Lord spoke to him held little condescension.
“This is the characteristic of our species, betrayal and deceit are our main thes, haha, a despicable race.”
The man said, his eyes flashing with a green glow, as if reminiscing about so unpleasant mory.
“Ha ha, but your race can still give birth to strong individuals like you, which shows enough potential.
It’s just the success rate of those drugs of yours that’s too low, and they only work on humans, which is a bit of a pity…”
The Abyssal Lord sneered cruelly.
They had taken over the drug factory of the Watte Corporation, and they were not wasting their efforts here.
In the Burning Legion, there were Magicians specifically responsible for biological research, with even bolder and cruder thods!
Unfortunately, after their prolonged experintation, this unique substance seed to only affect humans, which was a slight disappointnt to them.
However, the occasional birth of special individuals did bring them so pleasant surprises.
They hoped that as the numbers grew, they could continue to produce individuals like the one beside him or like those from the Holand.
As for casualties, those would not go to waste either; the dead could simply be used as sacrifices, waste not, want not…
