Chapter 7, Summoned!
The engine of the car let out a roar, transforming into a dark, indistinct shadow in the night as it whizzed away
Although I have figured out what the problem is this time, finding a solution remains a challenge
From this perspective, finding a method to complete the other missing pages seems utterly hopeless
"What the hell, the amount of bleeding is so significant that if you keep laughing, you might die, right?" Su Mo coughed and said, as the guy outside the car laughed exaggeratedly, which caused the bleeding from his head to increase even more
As for traversing dimensions, Su Mo believes that interstellar travel is still a more reliable option
Moreover, in this world that is increasingly approaching the end of the Dharma age, Su Mo's physical strength is also confined within a certain range, making it effortless to kill a cow with a single punch or to shatter a wall.
At that moment, Su Mo's vision suddenly cleared, and it was as if "the night had turned into dawn." The sensation of having hands and feet returned to him once again, with his right foot still pressing on the accelerator, the modified engine roaring with a thunderous sound.
Although Su Mo lived for a long time, he was never a pioneer or a driving force of the progress of his era. His life consistently changed in accordance with the advancements of the entire era, never surpassing this world.
There is no way, the ground behind the car is continuously sinking and rolling, as if an earthquake is occurring.
In a world where technological development has almost completely restricted individual power, it is not an easy task for a unique existence like Su Mo to further enhance his strength
The boy, with blood all over his head, revealed a knowing smile on his face, "As expected of a demon, even though I am the master, you remain utterly indifferent, don't you? It matters not; as long as I can achieve my revenge, I will not care even if you tear my soul apart in the end."
This palm-sized piece of paper is undoubtedly in a state of disrepair that cannot be further damaged. If other fragments can be found or if other means can be utilized to restore it, Su Mo's strength will naturally be enhanced
It was said this way, yet Su Mo remained seated in the car without moving, allowing the young man to lean on the hood and laugh heartily, while he was processing a piece of information that had just entered his mind
Am I to embark on the path of the Dark Lord once again
Current technology is advanced, yet it has not reached the level where humans can be sent beyond the solar system for interstellar travel
Su Mo stepped on the brake, a strange expression appearing on his face as he looked at the guy lying on the hood of the car, his head covered in blood
As for stopping the little mustache, it is probably due to a rather domineering CEO-like notion that this world can only be ruined by me—uh, well, in a certain sense, that is indeed the reason.
After all, this piece of paper is intrinsically connected to Su Mo's soul. If one were to recklessly absorb two opposing forces and allow them to clash, it would cause harm to Su Mo himself
The vehicle had not been driven for long when a sudden explosion erupted from behind, sending flames soaring into the sky
Since it is an "extraterrestrial object," it is at least something from beyond the solar system, and it might even be from the legendary other planes or worlds
Such a feeling is not unfamiliar to Su Mo. A long time ago, in his worst state, he was just like this, indistinguishable from a walking skeleton soldier
If the body is completely annihilated, as long as the soul remains intact, Su Mo can still be reborn. However, the strength of this newly reborn body will revert to the most primitive state of a normal person, and it will consume a significant amount of the soul. The enhancement of physical strength, in essence, does not elevate Su Mo's own power.
Now, on the path to enhancing his own strength and breaking free from the influence of the "poison," Su Mo has two tasks to accomplish: one is naturally to seek out some special "talents or abilities," and the other is to complete this piece of paper.
Now, at least it has upgraded to a skeletal soldier that drives, at the cavalry level, which is quite modernized "cavalry"
Hmph
Su Mo began to suspect whether this fellow might die from excessive blood loss
It seems to have become serious? A thought suddenly emerged in Su Mo's mind, and he immediately felt a wave of dizziness, as if the world had been turned upside down and distorted. Although his eyes were open, he could see no light, as if they had lost their function.
In the beginning, in order to regain the feeling of being human, Su Mo devoured the souls of many people, and it was during that time that he earned the title of the Dark Night King. Later, Su Mo ceased such actions and began to live a low-key life, yet the title remained. Even though he prevented the mad invasion of the zombie army led by the little mustached man, in the minds of those who had heard of him, Su Mo was still regarded as a super demon king.

The body and limbs seem to vanish at the same time, and their existence cannot be perceived. One can only feel that fragment of paper, which is more intimately connected to one's soul than the life-bound treasures in fantasy novels.
However, this piece of paper is clearly an external object; otherwise, it would not be so vehemently rejected by the world spirit after gradually entering the "end of the Dharma age." The situation of it becoming "one's own paper" has now completely disappeared
Or rather, in the mind's eye, there emerges a vividly tangible piece of parchment stained with blood, upon which are inscribed lengthy passages of text that Su Mo has never encountered before
It seems that whatever poison it is cannot kill me, but if it comes a few more times... Su Mo thought to himself, preparing to restore himself. In his view, he should have been completely torn apart by that nameless deadly poison.
The sound behind came to an abrupt halt
To constitute his body, as long as there is a drop of blood, or even a single cell, or the existence of a gene chain, Su Mo can reconstruct his own body by consuming the life or soul of others
There is no doubt that these unfamiliar characters do not hinder Su Mo's understanding of their meaning, as this is a form of information flow directly infused into Su Mo's mind, and the form of its existence does not affect the essence of the information itself
As he spoke, the young man suddenly burst into laughter, a rather unrestrained and exaggerated sound accompanied by a smile that, combined with the blood on his face, appeared particularly menacing
On the tattered piece of paper belonging to Su Mo, there exists a faint illusion of chains along with a small black shadow. This signifies that no matter how many times Su Mo is killed or how thoroughly his body is destroyed, as long as he is restored, the ability to transform and the heart-lock will forever endure
As for the content of the contract, it is not complicated. As long as Su Mo helps the young man fulfill his wish, he can obtain the young man's soul after the young man's death. The terms are clearly stated, honest and fair, equitable and just
Some people always want to create a big sensation Su Mo's expression remained unchanged as if he were the flashy protagonist in a movie completely uninterested in looking back at the explosion he suddenly pressed down on the accelerator
Therefore, even if Su Mo had the intention to create some sort of super spaceship, he would not be able to do so. He is an ancient being who has lived for a long time, but he is not a time traveler with memories and technology from the future
Accompanied by the roar of the engine, Su Mo heard an incredibly piercing scream: "Come forth, demons of hell, I offer my soul after death, as long as you can grant me revenge! I am willing to pay any price! Even if it means eternal damnation—"
Indeed, this is not Earth, but another world. And Su Mo himself was unexpectedly summoned by the smiling boy before him in the guise of a hellish demon
As Su Mo contemplated how to enhance his strength to escape the threat of the "Nameless Poison," the sensation of the entire world drifting away from him struck once again
Demonic Contract ... ... I have been summoned. '' Looking at the parchment that only he could see, Su Mo's expression became even more peculiar.
Su Mo was contemplating inscribing his blood cell gene chain into the fragment, so that even if it were completely destroyed in the future, the restored body would not revert to that of an ordinary person
The members of the Cross Order show no mercy when they take action, and they are quite extravagant. A perfectly good underground base has thus become Su Mo's grave. Unfortunately, Su Mo, the originally intended occupant of the grave, has managed to escape ahead of time.
After all, he would not sign any contract with others before devouring their souls
Certainly, it is also necessary to enhance physical strength
However, this is not something to be rushed. On one hand, Su Mo's physical strength has not yet reached a satisfactory level. On the other hand, that torn piece of paper is only so large, and the shadow and the concentric lock have already occupied a portion of it. If he were to recklessly devour it without consideration, it would not only be unhelpful in enhancing his own strength, but would also lead to unnecessary waste and damage
The demons are all good people; they even help each other while devouring souls. Such kindness is simply a disservice to their usual evil image. Upon seeing this contract, Su Mo felt that his moral standards had suddenly fallen below the average level of hell.
One could see Su Mo's eyes slightly widen, and the hands gripping the steering wheel began to exert force. If Su Mo were to appear in certain animations at this moment, the scene would depict him surrounded by some enlarged phantoms that would then disappear, only to reappear again, resembling waves that come in succession.
Firstly, Su Mo can now be described as "non-human". Although he has maintained a human form, his essence is, in fact, a soul that has merged with that tattered piece of paper.
This individual was struck by a vehicle
However, it is essentially impossible to reach the level of dismantling a building with bare hands like a humanoid Gundam
To truly enhance one's capabilities, it is essential to continuously strengthen one's spiritual power, as this is the rightful path
Justice is something that holds no meaning, both for the vampire Akat and for Su Mo as well
However, even if he were to consume the souls of those ordinary people, it would at most allow Su Mo to be reborn a few more times, without any significant enhancement to his own strength. Otherwise, Su Mo would have already broken out of the solar system by now
