From Abyssal Invasion to Bursting Stars with a Single Sword

"I agree... I agree, I'll meet all your demands..."

Clyde Saville's abdomen was pierced, blood gushing out from the blood groove of the blade, the intense pain sobering him up and allowing him to see the situation clearly.

He made the most correct choice, not daring to resist anymore.

The abdominal wound was indeed severe; if it were an ordinary person, damage to the organs would make survival difficult, but the constitution of a superpower user was much stronger.

He, after all, was nurtured with resources by the Saville Consortium, possessing a source energy level of over 40, and a constitution attribute exceeding 100 points, which is ten times that of an ordinary person.

Hence, to him, an abdominal wound wasn't fatal, but another sword strike would be a different matter.

Lu Heng withdrew the Aurora Blade, flicking the sword to remove the bloodstains.

This S-level divine weapon required just a gentle flick for no blood to remain on the blade, making wiping unnecessary.

"Speak. Why are you monitoring me?" Lu Heng's fingers slid over the sword's edge, rubbing his fingertips together afterward.

Clyde Saville clutched his abdominal wound, kneeling on the ground, and gasped out, "It's... an oracle from the Abyss."

Lu Heng continued to ask: "Whose oracle is it?"

What is called an oracle usually comes from a spirit communicator communicating with entities from other worlds, consisting of information, commands, and guidance, collectively known as oracles.

Many spirit communicators regard the oracles they hear as mandates, strictly executing them.

Of course, the prerequisite is that the entity issuing the oracle can demonstrate miracles in front of them to gain their respect.

"He calls himself Leoric..." Clyde Saville endured the intense pain from his wound, his forehead and back soaked with cold sweat from the agony.

Leoric, upon hearing this name, Lu Heng instantly knew who it was.

The Bone Sovereign Leoric was the demigod beneath the Wugu Blue Cave in the Tidal Sea, also the future Abyss Demon King that would destroy the Elf Royal City of Kolos.

If it were someone else hearing the name Leoric, they wouldn't know what it was.

Because in the human world, only Lu Heng knows this name, a memory from his rebirth.

This name will only appear in future summons in the Elf World, and in all the known information of this life, there is no information about the name Leoric.

From this information, it can already be proven that Clyde Saville wasn't lying, at least the name Leoric is genuine.

This means he truly heard a voice from the Abyss, and the existence that issued this voice is indeed the Bone Sovereign Leoric.

If it were the command of the Bone Sovereign, then everything makes sense.

Lu Heng still holds the divine attribute of the Bone Sovereign, and generally, when a demigod's divine attribute is taken, they would definitely find a way to reclaim it.

Because the divine attribute represents the demigod power they possess, losing it means losing that much demigod power.

Lu Heng thought of so much in an instant, but there was no change on his face. He proceeded to ask: "What does he want you to do?"

"He wants me to monitor your every move." Clyde Saville endured the turbulence of his qi-blood within, gasping as he replied.

"And then?"

"There's nothing further, all current oracles merely require me to monitor your actions. As for subsequent commands, they might come after I report your information." Clyde Saville didn't dare to hide anything, honestly answering each question.

"Recite all the contents of the oracles, don't miss a single word." Lu Heng insisted on hearing the so-called oracles once through.

Clyde Saville described the entire process of spirit summoning with the Bone Sovereign, particularly emphasizing the communicated information.

After listening, Lu Heng realized that the oracles issued by the Bone Sovereign indeed only included the command to monitor.

This is the state most Abyss Demon Kings and evil gods exhibit when using spirit communicators.

They won't tell spirit communicators the whole event, nor will they explain the reasons for the commands, merely instructing them to carry out certain tasks.

Lucas gained insights about the Saville Family's spirit communicator and confirmed the existence of the oracle from the Bone Sovereign.

However, there was still a problem that hadn't been clarified.

What is the relationship between the whole affair and Ke Yiming, the Liwei Mercenary Group?

If not for the memories from the previous life, the whole thing seemingly had no direct connection with Ke Yiming, the Liwei Mercenary Group.

On the surface, it seemed like the Liwei Mercenary Group wanted to gain qualification to enter Quenching Castle, then used the intelligence from the Saville Consortium in exchange.

It appeared logically very clear and very reasonable.

Yet, because of the memories of rebirth, Lu Heng sensed the matter wasn't as simple as it seemed.

If Ke Yiming, the Liwei Mercenary Group, and the Saville Consortium had no ties, then why was the first thing he did after gaining the Fourth Transition rank in his past life to eliminate the Saville Consortium?

Lu Heng pondered for a moment, then asked, "Have you heard of the Liwei Mercenary Group?"

Clyde Saville nodded, replying, "Yes, it's a superpower mercenary group headquartered in Coastal; our consortium sent people to contact them."

Lu Heng continued, "Do you have any grudges with the Liwei Mercenary Group?"

Clyde Saville paused for a moment, then shook his head and replied, "No, our consortium only had some contact with the Liwei Mercenary Group, but not much, and no cooperative relationship was established. Business dealings usually don't result in grudges just because there's no cooperation."

The mystery remained unsolved.

Lu Heng furrowed his brows in thought: "Have you heard of the name Ke Yiming?"

Clyde Saville, after careful recollection, shook his head and replied, "No, I haven't heard of it."
