Looting the life force of demons to forge a golden body Martial God-Chapter 94 - 92: The New Era Slave Hunter Team

Chu Feng’s eyes widened in shock, "The Demon Clan is that ferocious?"

"The textbooks didn’t mention any of this at all!"

Wang Xuerui shook her head, "It was only after I arrived at Yan University that I learned about the details of the Demon Clan.

"Do you know why demon matters are not included in the middle school textbooks?

"It’s to prevent the general public from panicking upon knowing of their existence, which would create opportunities for the demons.

"Therefore, inside Longhua District, detailed information about them is classified, with only mentions of ’evil teachings’ while bolstering public vigilance."

"Also, do you know why high schools teach the language of the Demon Race, but not the language of the Magic Race?

"First, because the Magic Race Language is closely related to spiritual power.

"If your spiritual power isn’t up to standard, forcing yourself to learn can damage your spiritual power.

"Second, learning the language of the Magic Race lays the groundwork for studying magic, but magic itself is highly dangerous.

"Ordinary people who study and use magic on their own, if something goes wrong, can cause immense destruction.

"At best, they may suffer damage, and at worst, it’s not uncommon for them to become brain dead.

"The Shape-shifting Shadow Move I taught you is one of the very few spells that have been thoroughly modified and completely discard the language system of the Magic Race.

It’s a unique spell created by Yan University, very special and shouldn’t be seen as representative of the mainstream magic system.

"The most important is the third reason, the language of the Magic Race has a powerful seductive quality, and the demons’ ability to bewitch people is just too formidable.

"With the use of their language, they could literally turn the world upside down!

"They have set a record: A single demon infiltrated a human army and in just one night, seduced the whole force to switch sides!

"Although that was an army left over from the disintegration of the northern behemoths and had already lost its faith and will to fight.

"But they were still a regular army that had gone through brutal warfare, with a complete set of military disciplines and regulations.

"Even those battle-hardened, mentally resolute professional soldiers couldn’t resist the temptation of the demons, let alone ordinary people.

"The simplest way not to be easily bewitched by the demons is not to learn their language, not to understand it!

"When demons speak in the human language, their power to bewitch drops by more than half.

"Therefore, to prevent ordinary people from being enticed by the demons, Longhua District decided to classify the Magic Race Language as confidential.

"Only warriors who have gone through strict scrutiny and selection are qualified to learn.

"Moreover, every time they return from the demon realms, they must undergo serious ideological screening, to prevent the spread of demonic influences."

Chu Feng remained silent for a long while before nodding, "I understand, Ms. Xuerui."

The thought of the battle records of the demons described by Wang Xuerui made him shudder.

At the same time, he felt secretly fortunate that the demon beings he encountered, the Demon Blood Mother Tree and the Bloodskin Wraith Demon, were not like the typical demons of the Demon Clan.

Had he encountered those crafty and cunning demons described by Wang Xuerui, he doubted he would have had any chance of surviving.

"What about the other three academies?" Chu Feng asked sheepishly, scratching his head, "What does the Logistics Academy do?"

Wang Xuerui glanced at him and smiled slightly, "I didn’t expect you to be interested in the Logistics Academy.

"If you really wanted to go into logistics, that would put my mind at ease."

His flattery sounded truly pleasing.

If it weren’t for the warning sign in Wang Xuerui’s eyes that seemed to say "dare to abandon me for logistics and see what happens," Chu Feng might have believed her.

He shook his head solemnly with a smile, "Of course not, I’m just curious."

Wang Xuerui nodded in satisfaction, "Students from the Logistics Academy typically don’t go to the front line; they learn knowledge necessary for production.

"Such as forging True Artifacts and even Taoist Tools, operating alchemy furnaces, and concocting potions.

"And even more challenging is to decipher and utilize the Demon Clan’s Magic Conductors. If we can’t use them, we dismantle them and assimilate their concepts for our use.

"However, in terms of magic-related knowledge, the Human Race is far behind the Demon Clan.

"Even if we capture Magic Conductors, it’s very difficult to extract useful knowledge from them.

"We humans still don’t understand the principles behind how Magic Conductors operate to this day. We only manage to decrypt the security measures and then ’take them to use’."

Chu Feng shook his head, "Logistics is about producing logistics materials, huh? I thought it was about training logistics personnel..."

Wang Xuerui smiled, "You wish. Who doesn’t know that logistics positions are both important and cushy?

"Which power would hand over such a critical task to an outsider! People within would fight tooth and nail for it."

Chu Feng shrugged his shoulders, "What about the other two academies?"

Wang Xuerui elaborated, "There is also the Tactical Command Academy, which primarily cultivates leader-type talents.

"Upon graduation, students typically join either the Demon Elimination or Demon Annihilation armies, though a few may join the ’Slave Hunter Teams’ of major powers.

Some are clever, quick to react, and energetic, but don’t have a prominent advantage in martial arts, so they are usually recommended to join the command academy."

Chu Feng was taken aback, "Slave Hunter Team?"

Wang Xuerui pursed her lips and smiled, "In reality, it’s a Hunting Team.

"Large forces establish their own Hunting Teams to secure a steady channel for obtaining Demon materials.

"They are all commonly referred to as Hunting Teams, though there’s a huge disparity in their sizes. Small forces might indeed have a small squad of just a few people.

"But what large forces have at their command might rival a small-sized legion.

"They have abundant capital and recruit a large number of social Martial Artists to join the Hunting Team, regularly venturing into Demon Realms to clear out demons.

"Students from Yan University’s command academy are considered hot commodities to them, as they can substantially increase the efficiency of their hunts and reduce casualty rates.

"The Longhua District also welcomes this, as large forces can obtain low-cost Demon materials and then manufacture them into products for societal distribution.

"The idle Martial Artists in society get absorbed and managed by the Hunters Association, which significantly reduces the crime rate in the district.

"Moreover, the more Hunting Teams there are, the more pressure they can relieve from the Demon Elimination and Demon Annihilation armies. It’s a win-win.

"It’s just that these Hunting Teams give a strong sense of déjà vu from history, so they are collectively referred to as ’Slave Hunter Teams.’"

Chu Feng was astonished, "Aren’t they essentially private armies of the major powers? And no one governs them?"

Wang Xuerui shook her head, "No, the Longhua District strictly regulates these Hunting Teams.

"First, every member must be registered and undergo strict scrutiny.

"If a Hunting Team is found to harbor criminals, the power behind them will be severely punished.

"Martial Artists with a record trying to join a Hunting Team must proactively report their crimes to the Hunters Association, which can exempt them from part of the punishment.

"But it’s not an unconditional exoneration; if the crimes are too grave, they can’t escape the deserved punishment.

"Once the punishment is served and their record cleared, they can apply to join a Hunting Team and live openly under the sun.

"Second, to prevent instability, Hunting Teams are forbidden from taking their weapons and armor out of the Demon Realms.

"They must purchase or rent a storage facility from either the Demon Elimination or Demon Annihilation army to store their arms and armors.

"In the name of the district, both armies guarantee that their weapons will not be lost.

"When it’s time for the next hunt, the hunters pick up their weapons again under the management of the Demon-Slaying and Devil-Eliminating Army."

"In this way, once the Hunting Team steps out of the Demon Realms, they are just ordinary civilians.

"Once they are in the Demon Realms, they become hunters under the close watch of the army."

Chu Feng nodded thoughtfully and then asked, "What about the last one, the Combat Technique Research Institute, right?"
