Players scattered around the vicinity of the Demon Race Imperial Capital, but not a single one approached it. Even Dung Beetle and his group, after escorting Lucifer-Glaze to the outskirts of the Imperial Capital, chose to leave the area immediately. They weren't idiots; they were here to complete Tasks, not to foolishly get themselves killed. This was the Demon Race's true Headquarters. Who knew how many experts lurked inside? Besides, Reincarnation cost ten Contribution Points each time. Currently, they were only encountering some Low-tier Demon Race members, and killing one yielded just One Contribution Point. Was it worth it? There was no need to stir up trouble here. This Ghostly Place really needed Old Mo to handle it.

But Old Mo wasn't here at the moment. He had remained alone in the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains, with no intention of coming to the Eastern Region. The demons in the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains were all high-Realm. Killing them was extremely profitable, so why bother coming to the Eastern Region?

If one had to say which Players were the most insane, it would definitely be the Fourth Test Players. To earn Contribution Points, they had reached a state of utter obsession. Whenever they encountered a demon, a group would rush forward to fight for the kill, terrified of being a step too slow and having it snatched by someone else. This situation made many Veteran Players' scalps tingle. Although they too lacked Contribution Points, they hadn't reached this level of craziness.

Look at those Fourth Test Players! To earn Contribution Points, they not only spared no demons but even ransacked the Water Demon Race Territory. The Players gave a perfect demonstration of what it meant to "leave not even a needle and thread behind."

Many Fourth Test Players had already gathered in the Water Demon Race Territory. Upon learning that King of Spraying King Pen Duanchang had killed all the demons here, they set their sights on what lay beneath the Blood-colored Pond Water. This is the Water Demon Race Territory; there must be plenty of treasures inside! If we grab some and take them back, what if the Great Inventor buys them? You have to remember, many Players have now chosen paths like Refining, Alchemy, and so on. If they snatched those treasures, it would definitely be profitable!

The decision was made: loot it all!

"I don't have enough Contribution Points to upgrade my Water Element Spells. It seems I have no way to get down there," one Player lamented.

Another Player turned and said, "There's something wrong with this blood-colored water. Even if our Water Element Magic gets a boost after we go down, it won't be by much."

"Go contact the Great Inventor!" the Underground Boxing King declared in a deep voice. "Get them to make some Water Pumps and bring them over. We'll just pump all this blood-colored water dry. Then we can go down, can't we?"

Water Pumps? That's a brilliant idea! If the blood-colored water is the problem, then let's solve it at its root. Drain all of its water, and then there won't be any issues, right?

Immediately, a group of them began to contact the Great Inventor and his team.

Upon hearing the news, the Great Inventor also urgently led Players skilled in Refining to the Water Demon Race Territory. They also put the Iron Ingots they carried to use along the way. By the time they arrived, they had already manufactured a Water Pump. The Great Inventor was well aware of how many treasures could be found in a race's territory, so he unceremoniously joined in.

A group of them began to manufacture Water Pumps. As soon as one was completed, other Players immediately put it to use. No need for politeness; they just got straight to work! Using Magic to power the Water Pumps, they weren't worried about consuming Contribution Points. They simply set them up by the shore and began pumping out the Pond Water.

Time ticked by, minute by minute, second by second, but the Players showed no intention of stopping. The level of the Blood-colored Pond Water was visibly dropping as vast quantities of it were pumped into the nearby forest.

"GOODNESS ME! That's already thirty-three Water Pumps, right?"

"How much good stuff did the Great Inventor and his team bring with them? Every single one of them is so damn crazy!"

"Brothers, get ready! We'll be able to get into the water soon, and then all the treasures here will be ours!"

"Faster, faster! Haven't you guys eaten? Can't you manufacture them any quicker?"

"..."

The Players were incredibly excited, each one staring intently at the Blood-colored Pond Water, wishing they could dive in and search for treasures the very instant it was drained. Dozens of Water Pumps worked in unison, quickly draining the Water Demon Race Territory dry.

Without this Pond Water, the Water Demon Race would no longer be able to produce Young Demons. It was safe to say that the Demon Race had now completely lost the Water Demon Race's habitat. The Water Demon Race Territory was a place of natural formation; finding another like it would be almost impossible.

Spiritual Artifacts and various types of storage equipment appeared at the bottom of the drained pond. Seeing this, the Players, one after another, rushed down in a frenzy to grab them. It was exactly like a swarm of locusts passing through. In a single breath, the entire Water Demon Race Territory was picked clean; truly, not even a needle and thread remained.

"Hahaha, I snatched a Storage Ring; there must be good stuff inside."

"I grabbed a Blade-shaped Spiritual Artifact! Selling it to Veteran Players who use blades will definitely earn a good sum!"

"Brothers, everyone get ready! We're heading to the next Demon Race Territory! Let's loot them all today!"

"Charge, charge, charge! I can't wait any longer! Fortune and riches are right before our eyes!"

"..."

The Players packed up the Water Pumps and headed into the distance, showing no intention of approaching the Demon Race Imperial Capital.

Just moments after the Players had left—less than the time it takes to drink a cup of tea—the Water Demon Race Leader arrived from another direction.

Looking at what was now nothing but a Deep Pit, he too was stunned.

Hmm? What happened? How can there be such a massive pit in my Water Demon Race Territory? Who on earth did this?!
