Saving the World in an Apocalypse-Style Text Game-Chapter 939 - 440: Son of the Abyss

[You blew the "Abyssal Horn" within the Blood Sacrifice Magic Array, and the deep and majestic sound of the horn echoed in the cave for a long time.]

[The Magic Array at your feet suddenly burst into a rich blood light, which swept over your body, seemingly performing some kind of identity verification...]

[A moment later, the blood light extinguished, and you remained in place, with no teleportation occurring as you had imagined.]

[You understood that a human body could not pass through the Magic Array’s identification, and only demons could use the "Abyssal Horn" to activate the Magic Array’s teleportation...]

[Do you want to return the way you came?]

Lin Xun curled his lip, opening the Shell panel.

Inside was a demon Shell in a humanoid form, acquired from the Cage of the Stars, called ’Abyssal Horned Demon.’

"Good thing I didn’t throw this trash Shell away, now it’s come in handy..."

There were a total of five demons imprisoned in the Cage of the Stars, originally as experimental subjects for the Polar Star Association.

Unfortunately, the high-level demon ’Abyssal Destroyer Demon’ was too large to possess, so Lin Xun only kept the more visually appealing ’Abyssal Horned Demon’ out of the four remaining lower-level demons.

[You have possessed the Shell of the ’Abyssal Horned Demon’!]

[You blow the "Abyssal Horn" once more...]

[The Magic Array at your feet suddenly burst into a rich blood light, which swept over your body, seemingly performing some kind of identity verification...]

[This time the blood light did not extinguish but instead covered your entire body with flickering light...]

[Teleporting...]

[...]

[...]

[Teleportation error!]

Lin Xun’s eyes widened in surprise; before he could rejoice at the activation of the teleportation Magic Array, he saw the ’teleportation error’ alert.

The font color of the alert was a blood red, clearly not a good sign.

"What the hell is ’teleportation error’? This Shell is obviously a demon."

[...]

[You only felt dizzy as if the world were spinning, and then you were wrapped by an unknown, soft substance...]

[You suddenly opened your eyes to complete darkness, with the smell of blood and decay filling your nostrils.]

[Your humanoid body was curled up, knees to chest, compressed within a mass of warm, soft matter...]

[Based on the touch and temperature, you suspected that you were inside some creature, not within a digestive organ, but rather within its flesh or perhaps an excretory organ?]

Lin Xun twitched the corner of his mouth. Where had he been teleported to?

[You were just about to switch Shells and break through the fleshy bonds when you heard passionate words coming through the flesh...]

[...]

[... the moment most critical to the great revival of the ’Abyss’ is now!]

[Sacrificing the essence of numerous demon’s flesh and blood, the birth of the ’Child of the Abyss’ represents the pivotal chance for the resurgence of the ’Abyss’!]

[The fervent and ecstatic speech paused, followed by an eruption of cheering and roaring like a tidal wave!]

[These cheers and roars were definitely not made by humans, sounding more like beasts... or rather, demons!]

[Do you want to break free from your fleshy bonds and reach the outside world immediately?]

"Could it be..."

Lin Xun quickly regained his composure, carefully reading the text before him and immediately pressed ’No’ upon realizing a possibility.

[The impassioned speech started again...]

[To the many demon lords and great demon lords present, as well as to the various Demon Gods casting their gazes here...]

[The countless members of your clans will not have sacrificed in vain; their deaths will lead to the sacred resurgence of the Demon Clan!] 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚

[Enslaved by humans, bred by humans, slaughtered by humans, the dark days akin to livestock are about to become history...]

[The birth of the ’Child of the Abyss’ not only signifies the revival of the ’Abyss’ but also heralds the Demon Clan’s return to the surface!]

[He will lead you to eliminate the chief Evil God ’Almighty True Knowledge’, slay all evil humans, and reestablish demons as the rulers of this world!]

[Now, let all demons... witness the birth of the ’Child of the Abyss’!]

[As the words ended, the tidal cheers erupted again, and the flesh around you began to squeeze and wriggle violently!]

[You were involuntarily pushed towards a direction in the darkness...]

[You suddenly saw a sliver of light; the flesh in front of you opened a gap on its own, and red firelight came through the crack...]

[You had no control over your own body and were squeezed out through the crack in an instant.]

[The blinding light made you instinctively cover your eyes...]

[When you finally adjusted to the light and lowered the claws covering your eyes, you saw clearly where you were...]

[You were in a vast, well-lit hall, situated atop a peculiar altar.]

[Beside the altar stood a tall stele with strange inscriptions.]

[A huge ball-shaped organ of flesh hung above your head, which rapidly decayed and withered following your ’birth.’]

[In front of you stood a dark-skinned monster, with curved horns on its head, a bone scepter in its hand, hooves for feet like a cattle or sheep, and a tail covered with bone spines. ]

[You discovered the ’Abyssal Curse Demon Shaman’!]

[Below the altar, the hall was filled with myriad similar monsters. Some were huge and monumental like hills, others were as small and frail as children, and some were strikingly beautiful like ladies...]

[They were diverse in appearance, but all bore the distinct traits of ’demons’. Moreover, judging by the oppressive aura they exuded, none were lowly demons; at the very least, they were demon lords with demigod strength, or even greater demon lords...]
