As they strolled through the majestic Grand Tower en route to the chambers of Senior Li Mingze, located at the tower's pinnacle, their senses were greeted by an array of remarkable artistic displays and depictions depicting fierce battles.
They couldn't help but be captivated by the intricate and skillfully crafted artworks that adorned their path.
"Could it be that Senior Li Mingze was once a formidable warrior?" Chang Jianhong pondered, his countenance filled with curiosity.
"That remains uncertain, considering his conspicuous absence from the battlefield on most occasions," remarked Asmodeus, who walked alongside them.
"Nevertheless, one's appreciation for art is not contingent upon personal involvement or fondness for a particular field," Mu Kongdong calmly stated, his demeanor perpetually serene.
"Indeed," Chang Jianhong agreed, accentuating his assent with a nod.
"You speak the truth. Regardless of his reserved demeanor, one cannot deny the immeasurable strength he possesses," Asmodeus asserted, concurring with Mu Kongdong's perspective.
"Well, that is undoubtedly true," Mu Kongdong replied, a smile gracing his countenance.
Luo Yin, meanwhile, observed the murals with keen interest, his mind delving into contemplation. "These pictures share a stark resemblance with the ones that I had seen back in the Ancestral Land. Although they aren't exactly the same, they are indeed either drawn by the same person or someone who has learned a similar way of art."
As they ambulated along, their eyes fixed upon the magnificent murals, they eventually arrived at a colossal jet-black door adorned with intricate draconic runes.
The mere sight of the door caused a profound sense of despair to well up within the Admirals, as if their very souls would be consumed should they gaze upon it for too long.
A sinister malevolence emanated from the door, sending tremors through the hearts of all who beheld it.
They instinctively averted their eyes, avoiding even the briefest glance or utterance as they hastened past it.
As Luo Yin's gaze fell on the door, his red eyes shone brilliantly with the crimson hues.
"The path of blood it is then," He thought in silence.
Soon noticing the swift movement of their companions' heads, Luo Yin redirected his gaze as well, only to discover an assortment of murals adorning the adjacent wall.
"I wonder what these captivating murals allude," Luo Yin pondered silently, his steps unwavering.
After traversing a considerable distance and traversing several sections of the grand tower, they finally arrived at the pinnacle where Senior Li Mingze's room was situated.
At the forefront, Zhao Fengge exerted a push, swinging the door open.
"Welcome!" As soon as the door parted, they were greeted by the presence of Senior Li Mingze.
One by one, all of them entered the room, respectfully paying homage to Senior Li Mingze before taking their seats around the spacious roundtable at the center.
The room exuded an air of spaciousness, albeit sparsely furnished. Clearly, it served as a gathering place rather than a permanent abode.
Once everyone had settled into their seats, Senior Li Mingze also took his place, his presence commanding attention.
"I have been eagerly anticipating your arrival," he remarked as he situated himself.
He took a brief moment to observe each person present before resuming his speech.
"The starships have been accommodated, along with their respective crews, in the nearby town," he declared, a genial smile adorning his face.
"Truly, those starships are formidable war machines, capable of housing a significant number of personnel," he added. "However, it is important to acknowledge that should any of these vessels meet their demise, all individuals below Core Formation would be irretrievably lost, without any means of escape."
"But let us not dwell on such matters for now," he swiftly redirected the conversation. "Let us delve into the crux of our discussion: your respective responsibilities and duties on this Globe World."
As Senior Li Mingze addressed the group, the attention of each individual became solely fixated upon him.
"I believe that you people have gained a certain level of insight into everything that is happening here by now," Senior Li Mingze said.
"To some extent," Mu Kongdong replied with a nod.
"As expected," Li Mingze said as he nodded his head, "Good. Next up, you people will be sent to the Qing Clan of the Dragon Race under the guidance of Asmodeus and acquire a new identity which will allow you to affect the high ranks within the Dragon Race."
Maintaining his amiable countenance, he proceeded to expound further and presented the methods which they could use.
