My profession panel inspires loyalty.

In this situation, a voice resonates throughout the world.

Friends!

We have ample basic supplies, exceptional products at reduced prices, and even our healthcare and education systems are open to us, making our future even brighter.

But all of this is because of the influence of the Red Heart Society!

[Without the Chixin Society standing by with a big sword, forcing the world to change, we could never have such benefits even if we struggled our whole lives!]

Therefore, let us pray that our sincere hearts will grow stronger in the future!

Only in this way will the world change more and more significantly.

Even if one day the Red Heart Society fades into the vast river of history, everything we enjoy today will forever remind us of its contributions.

Because the Red Heart Society has been here, we are able to live this kind of life.

Without the Red Heart Society, a life of filth and poverty would be the true picture of us exploited people.

In December of the 132nd year of the Extraordinary Calendar, the Peacock Empire, which among all nations most revered the bloodline system, also began to make unprecedented changes.

Although their internal bloodline hierarchy has not been abolished, the Peacock Empire has allowed even the lowest-ranking commoners to pay large sums of money to awaken and become professionals.

In this day and age, the Awakening Gold system, abandoned by other countries, has been picked up by the nobility of the Peacock Empire as a lifeline.

Even during this process, they felt their interests had been violated.

After all, the opportunity to awaken and become a professional is not something ordinary people can have.

This essentially gave the common people the ability to resist them.

They will never lift this restriction unless the situation becomes extremely critical.

[In the same month, riots continued on the battlefields within various countries.]

[At this point, the high-ranking officials of various countries finally understood why the Crimson Heart Society had been obstructing the Sunset Empire's Abyss Experiments, and even why, upon learning that the Sunset Empire had relocated its Abyss Experiments, it had angrily used its super military to raze the empire to the ground.]

[Studying the abyss is tantamount to dragging the entire world down with you!]

[For a time, mainstream media around the world were using all their resources to praise the virtues of the Red Heart Society.]

This sudden shift reveals that the strategies of certain high-ranking officials and clandestine organizations around the world have changed.

They felt their own country or other nations were unable to resist the invasion of the Abyss, and wanted to curry favor with the Red Heart Society in this way, hoping to receive its protection in the future.

You don't reject these kinds of people either.

[As long as they contribute sufficient supernatural resources, you wouldn't mind providing them with a place to live.]

[But if they intend to cause trouble here, the surveillance team will show them just how cruel the torture methods developed by the Redheart AI under artificial manipulation can be.]

[In June of the 133st year of the Supernatural Calendar, you reached level 59.]

[In the same month, after expanding eastward for nine thousand kilometers on the Abyss Battlefield, the Red Heart Society discovered a massive cliff six hundred kilometers away.]

Through secret searches by the scout team, they discovered an endless array of ultra-extreme insect nests beneath this cliff.

The sheer number of abyssal worms, their bizarre and varied species, was enough to send chills down one's spine.

[This makes it clear to you that once the demonic insects below the cliff climb up and reach the Red Heart Society, it will be an unstoppable disaster for the entire society.]

Therefore, before the insect swarm erupts, a super fortress should be built between the mountains and rivers behind the area to temporarily defend against the insect swarm's attack.

[Currently, on the Red Heart Society's side of the Abyss Battlefield, a giant city blocks the way to the north, while cliffs and surging tides of demonic insects hinder it to the east.]

The only areas left for further development are the west and the south.

Fortunately, this abyss region is rich in resources, with various mithril, adamantite, black iron, and magic crystal veins scattered around, resembling a pristine, untouched land. A survey of it is incredibly exciting.

[Especially the blazing gold oil fields surrounding the Demon Insect tide are arguably the best in the world!]

If they could seize control and mine it, the Red Heart Society wouldn't have to worry about the development of its extraordinary industry for decades.

In short, although the process of exploring the Abyss was fraught with danger, almost nothing too dangerous occurred thanks to the protection of the Red Heart Battle Group, whose members were all wearing basic battle armor.

For the Red Heart Society, the Abyss is now an extremely profitable venture.

The only thing you regret is that the Abyss's projected will descended too early. If it had been thirty or fifty years later, you're confident you could have developed the Crimson Heart Society into a behemoth.

In July of the 133rd year of the Extraordinary Calendar, the Crimson Heart Armor research team brought good news: with the full assistance of the Crimson Heart AI's computing power, they had optimized the Crimson Heart Armor's production process to the greatest extent possible, increasing production efficiency by half.

This is definitely good news for the Red Heart Society today.

The group now wearing the Red Heart Armor are all the disciples and grand-disciples of veteran soldiers.

Even among the Crimson Heart Battle Group, the warrior who burned his lifespan to increase the efficiency of refining divinely bestowed crystals is now only at the seventh rank.

However, even a seventh-tier professional has reached the minimum requirement to wear the Crimson Heart Armor.

Perhaps from this point onward, the Red Heart Legion will gradually don the Red Heart Armor, replacing their basic armor with that of their brother units.

[In the same month, you held a martial arts competition among your troops stationed in the Abyss Battlefield.]

Based on the competition results, you have formed five new demon-sealing battle teams.

The Red Heart Society now possesses ten Demon-Sealing Battle Legions and two hundred Guardian Battle Legions.

The number of Red Heart Army soldiers has also exceeded an unprecedented 15 million.

[It is only because of this current era of turmoil and the foundation of its wealth reaped from the world that the Red Heart Society could possibly support such a large army with such high welfare standards.]

[Of course, the main reason is still the extraordinary era, where even without waging war, armies can still come to the Abyss Battlefield to farm gold and earn income.]

This is also why the Red Heart Society dares to allocate 75% of its total fiscal revenue to military spending.

[November of the 133rd year of the Extraordinary Calendar: Good news continues to arrive.]

The Red Heart Society's research team stated that, with the computing power supported by the Red Heart AI, and by incorporating martial arts techniques from around the world as a basis for their derivation, and with the inspiration from the Red Heart Enhancement Method, they have addressed the shortcomings of the Life-Burning Secret Technique.

From this day forward, the Life-Burning Secret Technique will be divided into two phases.

The first stage is a normal burst phase, the kind that consumes lifespan and soul potential, but can automatically end after the battle.

The second stage is a complete explosion, burning everything in its path, a fight of utter mutual destruction.

[In this fighting style, after the soul erupts, it can absorb the surrounding abyssal demonic energy, purify it with the help of micro-crystals within the body, and then apply it to its own collapsing soul, thereby unleashing even greater power.]

[However, the second stage only applies to professionals who have cultivated the Crimson Heart Enhancement Technique. Without microcrystals to purify demonic energy, the professional's only option is to self-destruct.]

[You named this: The Deadly Secret Technique!]

[In the same month, after you disseminated the Life-Exploding Secret Technique to the entire army, you received an urgent plea for help from the White Eagle Emperor.]

[On the Abyss Battlefield of the White Eagle Empire, a level 98 Lava Demon has forcibly landed.]

The entire White Eagle Empire suffered immense destruction.

The world situation is getting even worse!

[But upon hearing this news, you grinned, revealing a smile that was quite unusual.]

Chapter 144 The Baffling Lava Demon (5k)

For the White Eagle Empire, the Lava Demons are enemies, mortal threats.

However, for the Red Heart Society, the Lava Demon is a reliable ally.

[Especially in the previous timeline, Deng Qi forged a deep friendship with the Lava Demon, and even passed on the position of the fourth leader of the Red Heart Society to this Abyss Lord before his death.]

The Lava Demon did not disappoint the Red Heart Society; after the Red Heart Society transferred a large number of its members to the Abyss, they also received care and protection from the Lava Demon.

In other words, without the help of the Lava Demon, Crimson Heart would likely never have been able to develop the Crimson Heart Enhancement Technique, a revolutionary skill, and the sealing barrier that shielded the abyssal demonic energy would probably never have been discovered.

In short, the Lava Demon's performance in the previous timeline proved its reliability to you.

[If the Red Heart Society possesses sufficient power and treats the Lava Demon well during the Abyss invasion, they can transform the Lava Demon into a pure Red Heart warrior.]

When you discussed the future plans of the Red Heart Society with Lin Xue and Deng Qi, you couldn't help but consider the worst-case scenario.

After all, there are too many unstable factors in the world, and the harsh environment of the abyss is not suitable for long-term human habitation.

You've experienced the worst-case scenario many times.

Decades later, sincerity will be destroyed.

Faced with this disastrous outcome, and given the existence of the future-predicting function, you projected the idea of ​​continuing the Red Heart Society onto the Lava Demon.

But if we do that, new problems arise.

Even with the help of the Red Heart Society, the Lava Demon only barely reached level 99.

In the war of the Abyss Lords, the Lava Demons, both individually and in terms of territorial strength, were far inferior to the lords engaged in the battle.

Once you enter, you're a lamb to the slaughter.

The Abyss Lord War represents a path to advancement, a grand spectacle after reaching level 100.

Therefore, this massive war, which can be granted authority by the will of the abyss, is one that the lava demons must participate in.

Therefore, if the Crimson Heart Society is to truly spread throughout the Abyss, the Lava Demons must win this war against the Abyss Lords.

However, that's all for the future. Right now, defeating the Lava Demon is the top priority.

[In the same month, Deng Qi represented you on a diplomatic mission to the White Eagle Empire.]

Having acquired enough extraordinary resources to cover his mission expenses, Deng Qi, based on his understanding of the Lava Demon's eccentric personality, began directing the White Eagle Empire's warbands to lure the Lava Demon into the Red Heart Society's northern defense line.

At this very moment, within the northern defense line, you lead the Crimson Heart Legion, standing ready for battle, while Sword Elder stands at the attack position of the Crimson Heart Legion, prepared to crush the level 98 super abyss lord.

Although Sword Elder thought fighting someone three levels higher was absurd, he still stood here, ready to confront the Super Abyss Lord, out of trust in you.

At the same time, I also felt a vague sense of anticipation.

After all, at his level, fighting opponents of higher levels would greatly enhance his combat understanding.

Not long after, the colossal lava demon appeared before the Crimson Heart Chapter.

Seeing this, Sword Elder didn't hesitate at all; his soul domain surged forth, instantly enveloping the surroundings.

[And when your battle aura domain covers the Crimson Heart Battle Group, the powerful boost instantly unleashes terrifying power within the Crimson Heart Battle Group.]

Most importantly, the buff that ignores level differences, resulting from consuming Human Will, is the key factor that allows the Red Hearts Legion to confidently defeat the Lava Demon at this stage.

After Deng Qi returned to the Red Heart Battle Group, he directly took over the battle group's command from you.

Of everyone present, no one understood the Lava Demon better than him.

[From the opponent's every word, action, and even a change in their gaze, one can predict the Lava Demon's thoughts and then directly intercept and disrupt their battle strategy based on those thoughts.]

Therefore, when the battle broke out, to the White Eagle Empire soldiers not far away, the Red Heart Chapter's fighting style was nothing short of a magnificent art.

The Lava Demons, which appeared within their country's borders and caused unparalleled damage to their defenses, were like children's toys to the Redheart Chapter—they could be tossed around at will.

Even Sword Elder was astonished by Deng Qi's command abilities.

Could there really be such a great commander in the world?

This guy is practically a god of war!

Not only Sword Elder, but even the Lava Demon himself was stunned.

【what? 】

【no!】

[As I prepared to deliver a left punch, I unleashed a wave of lava energy from my mouth, and my demonic horns emitted streams of energy. How was it that my opponent was able to anticipate this combined attack and dodge it all?]

[Even when I caught them off guard and used a surprise attack with my eyes to strike their barrier, how could they manage to strike such a bizarre pose in mid-air?]

Isn't it said that the more members a battle group has, the less flexible it becomes?

[When did it become the case that when humanity besieges a super-lord like himself, he becomes the one with a stiff fighting stance?]

[Leaving those aside for now, perhaps the opposing commander is exceptionally capable.]

The key question is, how could the opponent pinpoint the exact location of his buttocks, which he was desperately trying to conceal, and even the vital spot hidden beneath a lava boulder a third of the way up from the center of his left buttock?

[Even all attacks should be aimed specifically at this area.]

Even though I expended a massive amount of magic power, activated my innate abilities, and endured a tremendous impact to relocate my vital points to the lower half of my left buttock and the upper quarter of my anus, which I had planned, the opponent could still find them precisely.

This pathetic fighting style, where the opponent completely dominates and even exposes their own thoughts to the enemy, made the Lava Demon curse inwardly.

This was my first time in this world, my first time hearing about the Sovereign Heart Society, and my first time meeting them...

How could the other person know me so well?
