Inside a stone building beneath the spire.
A group of people sat facing each other.
"We've come here hoping you can help us find Zhou Yi. You're probably aware of his strength. If we let him continue like this, it won't be long before he becomes a threat to you," Hua Dongliang said.
Demon Lord Vast shook his head.
He knew, of course, that Hua Dongliang was exaggerating.
So what if a human is strong? Can they possibly reach their lair?
“Your unauthorized actions last time have already caused us to lose a lot of elites. The Demon Lord is currently waging war abroad, and I do not want to launch a large-scale operation now.”
Hua Dongliang frowned.
Isn't it said that demons are easy to fool?
"Name your price. What conditions would it take for you to agree?"
A glint flashed in Vastel's eyes. "Release the defenses of that teleportation portal on the ground. I can flatten the entire world, let alone a single human."
Hua Dongliang cursed inwardly.
Why don't you just say let humanity surrender?
"That's impossible! The portal is beyond my control,"
"Looks like you're just a nobody? Then we have nothing to talk about. You can leave now, let the person who can make the decisions come and talk."
"I can make decisions about everything except the portal."
A slight smile appeared on Vastel's lips.
That's exactly what I was waiting for.
"I heard you have a large laboratory where you study the talents of people with superpowers and various races."
"You mean the Xiangshan Laboratory?"
"Yes, that's it."
"Even if we give you that place, you can't take it with you."
"Hehe! Of course, it's not about taking possession, it's just about cooperating with you. We'll send engineers in to conduct research together with you."
Hua Dongliang looked on with suspicion.
Is it really that simple?
Although I subconsciously felt something was wrong, I couldn't quite put my finger on what it was.
However, the thought of Zhou Yi's threat made him put his doubts aside.
It's just a laboratory; every country has one, and it's not some top-secret place. Sending a few people in shouldn't be a problem.
"Okay, I agree, but your people must be humanoid beings."
Vastel was overjoyed.
As Ma Tianwei was right, when negotiating with humans, you should first propose a condition that the other party cannot agree to. After they refuse, you can then propose an even lower condition, and they will most likely agree.
"Hahaha! It's a pleasure to cooperate! As long as you provide the approximate location of Zhou Yi, we can find him and take him out!"
Hua Dongliang was somewhat flattered as he looked at the large hand that the other party had extended to him.
The devil who always has a grumpy face is actually so kind?
"You really think you can kill him? He's the most powerful player among all the gods..."
Vastel waved his hand dismissively, "Players? They're just the lowest level of existence in our world!"
Hua Dongliang finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Do you have a place for him now?" Vastel asked eagerly.
Hua Dongliang shook his head. "He's been appearing and disappearing mysteriously in the capital lately. By the time our people arrived, he had already vanished."
Vastel pondered for a moment and said, "Then can you get one of his items, a hair or some underwear?"
Hua Dongliang was taken aback. "What do you need that thing for?"
"Naturally, we should search for his location."
Hua Dongliang's spirits lifted. Searching for locations? Isn't that a feature that only appears in games?
It seems the Demon God Continent is even more mysterious than he imagined.
"I'll ask right away."
He immediately took out his phone and went out to make contact.
Watching his retreating figure, another demon whispered, "Vaster, what's the use of that lab? Those things are just leftovers from our time."
"Don't forget our purpose! Only by opening the portal on the ground can the Demon Lord descend."
Vastel remained calm: "What's the panic? You really think I want to do research with them? Do you even know what's in that lab?"
"What is that?"
"Human gene sequence."
"You mean..." The demon suddenly opened its eyes wide.
Vastel sneered: "That's right. As long as we master the human genetic sequence, we can transform the entire human race into demon warriors. Then, wouldn't we be the ones calling the shots in this world?"
Not long after, Hua Dongliang returned.
"It's being delivered."
There really are hairs related to the I Ching at the Xiangshan Laboratory.
As for the hair donor, it was naturally Xu Sheng.
Zhou Yi once lived in the Xu family's house. The laboratory, as a national-level laboratory, collected the DNA of many players and powerful superhumans in an attempt to study the relationship between genes and superhuman abilities.
Half an hour later.
Several people hurried over.
"I brought the things."
Vaster pulled out a compass device, placed the hair in the center, and muttered incantations.
Soon, the compass lit up, and a point of light appeared.
“This point of light is where we are right now,” Vastel explained.
"As for the location of that human..."
Suddenly, another flashing red dot appeared, very close to where they were.
"Hmm?" Vaster patted the compass.
Hua Dongliang craned his neck, "How is it? Where is it?"
"There might be an error; the display shows we're nearby."
A bad feeling rose in Hua Dongliang's heart.
"I'll try again..."
Vastel continued the operation.
This time, the red dot was even closer.
He suddenly looked up and saw a person standing at the door of the room.
Zhou Yi smiled and said, "You're looking for me?"
