Chapter 175: Damn, why is your organization full of beautiful girls?
The night was as dark as water, with the silver moon hanging high in the sky. The half-demons in black robes blended into the darkness, and their figures could not be seen clearly. Only the magic power lingering around their bodies flowed, telling of their existence.

"Level 7, Level 7, Level 8... Damn, Li Cheng, these people are so strong!" Lilith yelled, "Compared to them, Mu, who can only pull underwear on the enemy's head, and Karenina, who can only use fishing enforcement, are simply trash!"

"Don't underestimate them. Mu is even more powerful than his father in the later part of the story, and Karenina was originally a small boss in the abyss. Her potential is also amazing." Li Cheng looked calm.
"But now...these two born heroes are really two pieces of trash."

"Brother Li Cheng."

As the two were talking, the Full Moon Queen pushed open the door and snapped her fingers.

The mist spread from under their feet, the brilliant and blurry light and shadows created ripples, and the surrounding scenery slowly changed.

When the silk-like light stopped shaking, Li Cheng raised his head and found himself in a magnificent palace.

The decoration style of this palace is rather... strange.

That’s right, using the word “strange” to describe the decoration of the palace is indeed not quite appropriate, but Li Cheng couldn’t find a more appropriate word at the moment.

Throughout the palace, there are metal sculptures from the Victorian era, ancient oriental bronze ritual vessels, and all kinds of Warcraft furs and lifelike clay sculptures that symbolize primitive worship.

The styles are quite inconsistent, but they have a unique beauty.

Li Cheng certainly knew where that beauty came from——

Gold coins, this is the beauty of gold coins.

Everything in here would be priceless if placed outside.

In the eyes of the artist Li Cheng, piling so many things in a disorderly manner in the palace, while telling of wealth, also seems to be an excessive waste of resources.

"These are all treasures collected by the Half-Demon Clan over the past ten thousand years, Brother Li Cheng." The Full Moon Queen walked to Li Cheng and whispered, "Of course, they all belong to you now."

She was wearing a black corseted dress today with a princess-like skirt. The neckline, hem and cuffs were embroidered with gold thread, making her look particularly elegant and dignified.

And those blue-gold eyes and the blushing cheeks added a hint of playfulness to her elegance.

The Full Moon Queen stood beside Li Cheng, pursing her lips, avoiding his gaze, and dangling the back of her hand next to Li Cheng's hand, scratching it from time to time, but then immediately dodging as if she had been electrocuted.

Li Cheng frowned, grabbed it and raised his eyebrows.

"If you want to hold hands in the future, just do it directly. There's no need to test it."

“Okay, okay…” Vivian’s face turned even redder, and Anna also mocked her in her mind: “Oh, stupid love-brain, you should give me the control of your body. I know how to tease Brother Li Cheng better than you.”

"Shut up, you bad woman, I'm going for pure love!"

Vivian quarreled with Anna in her heart, then took a deep breath, mustered up her courage, grabbed Li Cheng's hand, and walked deeper into the palace.

Those half-demons who were just in the night also appeared in the palace. They stood on both sides of Li Cheng and knelt on one knee in groups following his steps.

Their expressions were extremely pious and their movements were in perfect unison, as if they had been carefully rehearsed.

An uplifting symphony was playing from the old-fashioned record player, like a welcoming movement for the king's awakening.

And those half-demons, with their faces lowered, were filled with excitement and agitation.

A few brave ones were quietly looking up, watching Li Cheng curiously.

But when Li Cheng's eyes swept over them, they hurriedly lowered their heads and were extremely respectful.

"What a big battle."

"Of course, they have waited for this day for ten thousand years, just like me." Vivian smiled happily.

"Are they also returning people?"

"No, they are the descendants of the half-demons back then." Vivian explained: "After you left, I was determined to find you, so I left the City of Deception."

"The group of half-demons who also obtained the regeneration magic power did not come with me."

"In the words of my friend, it is -

“We have entered the realm of the strong thanks to your kindness, but when you fight the Witch of Regeneration, we can only watch from the sidelines. We are fed up with this kind of powerlessness.

"If the Lord returns, we don't want to be like we are now, with only him guarding us."

"Vivian, since you are responsible for finding Mr. Unknown, then we...will be responsible for becoming his sword."

"This is their oath, an oath that binds the entire half-demon race."

“Thus, the sword of ominousness was born.”

"So, over the past ten thousand years, the sun and the moon have changed, dynasties have risen and fallen, the old era has been annihilated, and the new era has risen. They have witnessed the rise and fall of civilization, and they have also been waiting for your return."

"The ominous sword?" Li Cheng let out a long sigh, feeling inexplicably excited.

In the original PC version, the organization called the Ominous Sword also existed.

The members of this organization are the elite among the elite. According to the intelligence inferred by the "Scholars of Destiny" through fragmented information, this organization spans the two realms of the ordinary world and the abyss, and is a powerful force that even the Destiny Royal Court is unwilling to provoke.

However, this organization has never intervened in the plot, and no "Scholar of Destiny" can provide reasonable evidence to explain what they exactly want to do.

Although they are powerful, they are like icebergs hidden under the ocean, deep and invisible.

Unexpectedly, the answer was given in this version.

They are the swords that have returned to their sheaths,

Waiting for the day when Li Cheng swings his sword.

"They have traveled through ten thousand years, sinking into the deepest depths of time, just to meet you once again."

Vivian took Li Cheng to the deepest part of the palace, then stopped and looked at the upward stairs.

On the steps covered with a long carpet with a black background and gold patterns is the throne that symbolizes power.

"The king has returned, but the throne is still nowhere to be seen." Vivian smiled and let go of Li Cheng's hand. She gracefully took a step back and made way for the throne: "Brother Li Cheng, Vivian is here to witness this last part of the journey."

Unexpectedly, Li Cheng just glanced at her, then forcefully pulled her hand and held her in his arms like a princess.

"Ah? Brother Li Cheng..."

Vivian had never expected Li Cheng to be so strong. Her face turned red all of a sudden and steam came out of her forehead.

"You've waited for me for ten thousand years, how can I let you be the only witness?" Li Cheng smiled gently, and his natural scumbag body took effect: "From now on, I will walk through my life with you. Flowers bloom and fall, tides rise and fall, we will witness it together."

He held Vivian in his arms and ascended step by step to the throne that had been vacant for ten thousand years.

Vivian buried her head in his arms, no longer as cold as before.

Who would have thought that the cold and ruthless queen could actually have such a sweet and affectionate side?
Lilith floated aside, biting her clothes, her eyes bloodshot and almost popping out.

"You damn scumbag, you're just talking about flowers blooming and falling, tides rising and falling...Ahhhh! You cheated another one, you cheated another one!"

"Damn it, damn it!"

"But...I also want to hear you say sweet words to me, wuwuwuwu!"

As Li Cheng sat on the throne, a golden magic circle spread from under his feet directly to the entire palace.

He took a closer look and found that the style of this magic circle was very similar to the Land Alchemy Array, but the shape was inverted, and the prayers surrounding it were also very different.

[You heard the echo of the ritual array, the sword of ominousness.]

[The ritual array: Sword of Unknown Omen has been triggered.]

[From this moment on, you will sign a contract with all the lives within the ritual array. ]

[Through the power of regeneration, they will become your servants who will never betray you. ]

[You can enhance your servants through the power of regeneration. ]

[After ten thousand years, the swords that had been sealed in the dust finally found their masters. Is this the end of a beautiful dream, or the beginning of a legend? ]

【Please witness it! 】

The light flickered in the palace. The half-kneeling half-demons looked at their bodies in amazement, whether it was the back of their hands, their necks, or the palms of their hands.

There, an emblem linking them and Li Cheng suddenly appeared.

From now on, they became Li Cheng's servants and could no longer do anything to harm Li Cheng.

If Li Cheng needs them to carry out a mission, he only needs to use the power of regeneration to issue a compulsory order.

However, these girls were unable to impose any restrictions on Li Cheng. This was a rather unfair agreement, but strangely, there was no displeasure on the faces of these half-demon girls.

There is only happiness and fulfillment.

For the half-demon clan, the reason they have been able to survive until now and survive countless genocide disasters is because of the regenerative power bestowed upon them by Li Cheng.

To them, Li Cheng is like a god.

"Is this the emblem of Lord Unknown?"

"Ancestors, our half-demon clan's ten thousand years of perseverance has finally paid off..."

"It is our duty to become the tool of Lord Unknown!"

"The emblem of Lord Unknown smells so good..."

The chattering sound exploded among the half-demons.

This seemed out of place for this solemn scene.

But Li Cheng didn't think of stopping them.

On the one hand, Li Cheng is not the kind of leader who cares about face projects. To him, being able to get things done and being valuable are much more important than face.

On the other hand, his attention was now focused on Vivian.

From the moment the seal-granting ceremony began, the ten-thousand-year-old queen had been feeling uneasy and kept twisting in Li Cheng's arms like a water snake.

This made Li Cheng very puzzled.

"What's wrong with you, Vivian?"

"No, I'm fine..." Vivian's face turned even redder: "Really, I'm fine, Brother Li Cheng, don't ask anymore."

"Hmm? Okay." Li Cheng was not the kind of person who wanted to be boring. He nodded and changed the subject: "By the way, where is your badge, on the palm or the back of your hand? Let me see it?"

Unexpectedly, after the words fell, Vivian's face suddenly became eight shades redder than before.

The voice was intermittent and incomprehensible:
"My emblem, of course, is where it should be... the kind of place where an emblem should be, yes... it's there whether it's there or not, it's there whether it should be there or not, ah, yes..."

"What the hell are you talking about?" Li Cheng frowned.

"Anyway, anyway, stop asking!" Vivian was so embarrassed and angry that her head was smoking.

It’s not that she didn’t want to tell Li Cheng where her badge was, she just couldn’t say it.

Should I tell him that my emblem is below my belly?
Moreover, I don't know why, but I actually grew two small wings...

The most amazing thing is that other people’s badges are all gold, but why is hers pink and purple?

"By the way, Vivian, I haven't asked you yet, why are all the members of this organization women?" Li Cheng thought about it and asked the question: "Can the half-demons reproduce parthenogenetically?"

"Um... Actually, that's not the case. The Sword of Unknown is just the elite among the Half-Demons." Vivian explained, "Brother Li Cheng, you should have noticed that the number of the Sword of Unknown is the same as the number of Half-Demons left in the City of Fraud."

"Yeah." Li Cheng nodded, pretending to be as expected.

In fact, he didn't even count how many half-demons were left.

If it wasn't for Vivian's hidden mission, he would not have kept those half-demons and would have refined them all together.

"Those of my people who received the power of regeneration from you, relied on the power you bestowed on them to rescue many of their people, and established our own country in the gap between the abyss and the eternal world."

Vivian continued:

"However, they are not like me, who is only one step away from entering the realm of demigods. Naturally, they do not have the ability to reincarnate and become the second coming."

"Time flies, and life will eventually come to an end. It would be a pity if the power of regeneration is only used to prolong life."

"So, before they died, they took out the power of regeneration and deposited it in the tribe's land. Then, they chose a suitable successor from among the tribe members to absorb the power of regeneration."

"At the same time, they also integrated the strength and soul they cultivated into the power of regeneration, passing it on bit by bit."

“Although life dies, the soul, along with the power of regeneration, will last for thousands of years.”

My goodness, what Asura and Indra, what seven giants...

Li Cheng raised his eyebrows and looked at the half-demons who were kneeling on one knee below. He finally understood why they had no resistance to him at all.

For ten thousand years, every member of the Unknown Sword has inherited the admiration and respect of the previous member for themselves, and passed on these feelings to the next generation.

It would be weird if this could go against myself.

"Ahem." Vivian continued to explain: "And these souls... because they were female in the beginning, and they absorbed so many women... so, they are quite repulsive to men..."

"In this thousand years, only girls with pure hearts and no experience with men can pass the test and inherit this glorious power."

"I see." Li Cheng held his chin up, thinking that it was indeed Quantum Technology that had prepared such a rigorous background story.

In short, from now on, this semi-demon organization, "Ominous Blade", whose members have a minimum strength of level seven, has become Li Cheng's subordinates.

"In addition, they have not been idle during these ten thousand years." Vivian took out a booklet from her bosom: "This is the method of using the regenerative power developed by the half-demons."

Li Cheng took it, turned it over, and raised his eyebrows.

"The amount of regenerative power in their bodies is relatively small, so it cannot be wasted and can only be used on the tip of the knife. This also makes them better than me in using their abilities."

"Yeah, indeed."

Li Cheng nodded. This booklet not only contained methods on how to use the regenerative power to enhance one's physical fitness, but also runes on how to use the regenerative power to transform it into elemental magic.

There is also how to use the regenerative power to do facial fine-tuning, and how to use the regenerative power to increase the size of certain parts of the body... There are all kinds of things, everything, and they are all weird.

"Although the things recorded in this booklet are of no use to you, Brother Li Cheng, it is at least a token of our family's appreciation, so please accept it," Vivian said again.

The half-demons who were half-kneeling in the audience also raised their heads and stared at Li Cheng with nervous expressions.

"Hmm..." Li Cheng looked at him with amusement and said softly, "This thing is very useful to me. Thank you for your hard work."

His voice was soft, but loud enough for the half-demons in the audience to hear.

Then, these "Ominous Swords", which were at least level seven and could dominate any place on the continent, laughed like children.

"Hehe, I'm glad I can help Master Unknown!"

"That's right! The body-building method mentioned above was invented by my ancestors!"

"And my ancestor invented the technique of wrapping the body with regenerative power, so that there is no need for Niao Niao's magic!"

"And my ancestor, she invented the mimicry method that can use the power of regeneration to increase the size of breasts by two cup sizes!"

"Hehe, your ancestors are not as good as mine!"

"Nonsense! My ancestors can...can eat shit. Can your ancestors do that?"

"Hehe, my ancestors could eat two bowls!"

"..."

After a while, they started chirping again.

"Okay, be quiet!"

Seeing that the situation was about to develop into the vegetable market, Vivian hurriedly stopped it, then looked at Li Cheng apologetically and whispered:
"Really, Brother Li Cheng, I'm sorry, you took care of their feelings so much, but they took credit for it. I know, this thing is actually not very useful to you."

In Vivian's eyes, Li Cheng was full of regenerative power, and there was no need for him to use this cost-cutting and efficiency-increasing method.

Those words were said to prevent the half-demons from feeling embarrassed that they had done nothing in the past ten thousand years.

Li Cheng raised his eyebrows. He felt that some of these techniques were still useful.

By picking and choosing from them, he could increase the ways in which he could use his regenerative power.

"Brother Li Cheng, then, let's end the contract matter here. Now it's time to..."

Vivian got off Li Cheng, walked in front of him, knelt on one knee, and said devoutly: "My Lord Li Cheng, please give us orders!"

Li Cheng also showed a sunny and warm smile:

"Well then, the battle of fire slavery and body transformation begins now."
