Chapter 705: Chapter 700: Alpha
As for the purple giant egg deposited underground, all the Lords present wanted to destroy it.
However, Dean, the professor of the Summoning System at Lorich Magic Academy, shook his head, expressing a pessimistic attitude: "With our current standing, it’s impossible to kill the Demon God."
Principal Bosh tried, but his attack on the purple giant egg caused no damage; instead, his Fighting Qi Energy was absorbed into the egg.
"Don’t try anymore. This purple giant egg can obviously absorb external energy! Once Sarajael accumulates enough energy, he can break out again."
Professor Dean stopped others from taking action, "Unless the attack comes from another Demon God, exceeding the egg’s absorption capacity, it won’t be effective in destroying it."
Everyone’s eyes turned to Laine.
Laine quickly shook his head: "After this battle, the energy essence stored in the Holy Dragon’s Jaw is depleted, and it’s sealed again. I can’t transform into the Dragon King anymore... and even if I do, the energy strength is far below that of the real Holy Dragon King, certainly not reaching Demon God level."
"What about Dior Fulri?" People’s hopeful gazes turned to Bai Pu.
Bai Pu also shook his head, thought for a moment, and said, "I can’t break it either... but I can try another method."
A drop of crimson blood flew from Bai Pu’s fingertip, landing on the surface of the purple giant egg.
The purple giant egg showed no reaction, only a wisp of white mist rising from it.
"Blood sacrifice recognition also doesn’t work."
Professor Dean of the Summoning System shook his head, thinking Bai Pu was trying some blood recognition ritual to turn Sarajael into his "summoned creature," mocking Bai Pu for his fanciful thinking.
"Yes, Dior. Sarajael’s egg surface is extremely hot, the blood that falls onto it evaporates instantly." Munis said.
Bai Pu shook his head and said, "Then I can’t help."
In fact, Bai Pu had just used Pure Blood, trying to control the slumbering Sarajael.
Logically, the Demon God’s standing is extremely high, and even a target controlled by the "Demon God Mark" cannot be dominated by Pure Blood without causing the target to explode and die.
Bai Pu thought, if the Pure Blood drips onto the giant egg, the form Sarajael had turned into, it shouldn’t self-destruct to resist, so there’s still a chance.
But now it seems, a Demon God is a Demon God, and even the slumbering Sarajael cannot be restrained by Bai Pu’s Pure Blood.
Seeing that neither Principal Bosh nor Laine had a method, everyone lost the thought of attacking Sarajael’s giant egg.
"We can’t let the Demon God’s giant egg remain dormant like this; we must isolate it from external contact."
Professor Dean said, "I suggest digging here, building an underground palace to seal away the Demon God’s giant egg completely, ensuring no one can approach. Only this way can we maximize the limitation on Sarajael’s acquiring external energy, delaying Sarajael’s revival."
"If untouched, how long would it take Sarajael to gather enough energy and revive?" Principal Bosh asked.
"A very long time, I think... at least measured in thousands of years." Professor Dean said.
"Then let’s do as you say, trusting in the wisdom of future generations." Principal Bosh said.
Everyone’s expressions relaxed. In a thousand years, everyone would long be dust, unable to witness what the Demon Fighting World would be like then.
While the leaders from the two academies were busy with sealing rituals and the military was digging the underground palace, Bai Pu and the Awakened from the Huaxia Battle Group also received a prompt from Gaia’s Will.
[Legion Task: Prevent the full revival of Netherworld Demon God Sarajael (Completed); Kill or expel all invading Otherworld Travelers (Completed)]
[The goals of the Huaxia Battle Group legion task have all been completed. Completion: Excellent.]
[The Huaxia Battle Group has received basic war rewards: 3 million Spiritual Points, 200 Attribute Points, and 100,000 Honor. These war rewards will be distributed according to this war’s contribution.]
[The Huaxia Battle Group has received an excellent completion additional reward: Silver Medal. This additional reward will be enjoyed by every survivor and is non-tradable.]
"Wow, I actually got 70,000 Spiritual Points, 8 Free Attribute Points!"
"I got more than you, 10 Free Attribute Points."
"Comfortable, it’s equivalent to gaining a level up for free."
Exclamations rang out one after another.
Clearly, such generous war rewards were rare, and the Awakened present valued the Basic Attribute Points more, while the rewarded Spiritual Points were just a bonus.
"Bai Pu, how much did you get?" Qingyun quietly nudged Bai Pu.
Bai Pu displayed his share within the three-person team.
"So much!!"
Qingyun was shocked, as Bai Pu received 72 Free Attribute Points, 1.08 million Spiritual Points, and an additional 36,000 Honor Points.
"Gaia’s Will adjudged your war contribution as 36%." Wu Mingyue calculated quickly, "Actually, I think it should be more. You see, both Princes of the Sea were killed by you, and you also claimed Sarajael’s Heart of Fire Feathers. It feels like the rest of us combined don’t compare to your contribution."
Bai Pu shook his head and said, "Gaia’s Will has its algorithm, maybe defined by combat strength data. For example, Napo Gang, when well-prepared, could casually handle dozens of Awakened alone. But the combined combat strength data of these dozens far exceeds that of Napo Gang alone."
"That’s kind of unfair." Qingyun hoped Bai Pu would be stronger.
"Nothing unfair about it, I already got what I wanted."
Bai Pu rested on Da Fei’s back. On his retinas, he checked the wave of prompt messages after killing Napo Gang.
[Congratulations Awakened Gangxin, you have been promoted to One-star Major General!]
[Do you want to browse the One-star Major General’s privileges now?]
Bai Pu chose yes.
In an instant, Bai Pu’s consciousness was pulled into an unknown, mysterious space.
This was a pure white space, devoid of any clutter or furnishings.
A silhouette dressed in a black robe stood in front of Bai Pu.
"Hello, One-star Major General Gangxin."
The voice of the black-robed silhouette was devoid of emotion, "You can call me Alpha."
"Alpha? What’s your relationship with Gaia’s Will?" Bai Pu asked. He suddenly realized that he might be the first Earth human to meet Alpha, because in Earth’s eight-hundred-year Spiritual Energy history, there was no mention of a recognized Major General.
"I am the voice of Gaia’s Will. And you are the hand of Gaia’s Will."
Alpha did not hide the truth. "As a One-star Major General, you have gained higher privileges. Your Gaia Seal has become a Gaia Mark, and you can contact me anytime through the Gaia Mark, querying information forbidden to other Awakened."
Bai Pu felt something more on his chest. Looking down, there was indeed a pattern of a Three-leaf Scythe on his chest.
When Bai Pu focused his consciousness on the Three-leaf Scythe pattern, it began to slowly rotate.
Checking the Storage Space, the Gaia Seal was indeed gone.
"Has the Gaia Seal become the Gaia Mark, and does the Passive Skill of Spiritual Essence Internalization remain?" This was Bai Pu’s main concern, as the Spiritual Essence Internalization passive was indeed a Divine Skill, irreplaceable.
"The Gaia Mark contains all functions of the Gaia Seal."
Alpha said emotionlessly, "To put it in a way you might find easier to grasp: Previously, you were an intern, and now you have been made permanent."
