"Rolf! You finally returned.
How did it go? Did you subdue that evil baby?" several old men, dressed in black, exuding a strong aura of death exclaimed in surprise.
They were near the Yellow Cosmos.
A spatial channel had formed in front of them. A man garbed in black was walking out of it, carrying the Soul-summoning Flag in his hand.
The black robed elders were all masters from the underworld.
The man who came out of the channel was called Rolf. He had just escaped from the Yellow Cosmos. Upon seeing the masters from the underworld, he was greatly relieved.
"Sirs, we have failed.
I'm the only one who made it out of there alive,"
Rolf woefully explained.
Then, he filled in the elders on what had transpired in the Yellow Cosmos.
"What did you just say? The evil baby has entered Austin's body?"
The elders were all confounded to hear this news.
Simultaneously, there were several figures floating near another spatial teleportation channel.
It was impossible to see them clearly because the surface of their bodies was covered by a shield of light.
"What's happening?
The people of the underworld and the gods of light have returned.
Why is there no sign of our own people?"
one of the mysterious figures anxiously asked.
"Don't get so excited. Just wait.
Even if they have failed, we still have a backup plan,"
another figure cautioned.
"It's impossible for a few young men to have subdued the evil baby.
Let's wait. By my reckoning, the other forces probably also have backup plans.
A fierce fight is definitely coming.
Prepare yourselves. Soon, it'll be our turn to take action.
Now, I only hope that the most valuable magic treasure of our Divine Corpse Palace—the Divine Corpse Cloth hasn't fallen into the hands of others.
We shouldn't have let them take it with them,"
the third figure mused.
In the meanwhile.
In another area near the Yellow Cosmos, a large crowd had anxiously gathered in front of a space teleportation channel.
The crowd was made up of members of the beast race, the gods of darkness, and creatures from the isolated alien spaces.
"Don't worry. Remain patient. Prince Ace will return with the evil baby,"
a powerful member of the beast race, who emitted strong demonic aura, said loudly.
It was none other than Lloyd.
Elliot, Hackett, Baham, and Silas—core members of the gods of darkness—were also there.
Apart from them, there were also several top masters from the isolated alien spaces.
It was indeed a formidable army.
"Lord Lloyd is correct.
Now that Prince Ace and Prince Beasley personally took action, the evil baby will be ours,"
Hackett said with a smile.
Being a powerful member of the beast race from the Beast City, Hackett was one of Marlon's most trusted subordinates.
In the past, Marlon had sent Hackett to the three thousand big and small universes to put the evil baby there.
As long as the young talents of the beast race had control over the evil baby, it would mean that he fulfilled his task.
When that happened, he would be able to return to the Beast City, and Marlon would then think highly of him.
Since Hackett was ranked as a top leader of the gods of darkness and also a top master, he had become quite famous in the three thousand big and small universes.
However, he craved more than that.
He longed to return to the Beast City which was a top force in the Sea of Chaos.
Therefore, he got tired of staying in the three thousand big and small universes and couldn't wait to leave.
"Elliot, rest assured. Once we acquires the evil baby, Lord Marlon will reward you handsomely.
We will slaughter all the gods of light.
When that is done, you will rule the three thousand big and small universes.
With our support, you can expand your influence into the Sea of Chaos, and no one would dare to oppose you,"
Hackett assured him as he turned to look at Elliot.
"Thank you for your support!"
Elliot replied immediately.
Earlier, when Elliot had fought the gods of light with his men over the territory of the three thousand big and small universes, he had been at a disadvantage.
Later, Hackett arrived at the three thousand big and small universes and joined the gods of darkness. Since he was both powerful and intelligent, he soon rose to leadership and now stood shoulder to shoulder with Elliot in terms of status.
It was Hackett's plan to put the evil baby under the Karakoram Mountain.
