Profound Yellow Sect.

In a laboratory within the House of Evolution Hall, players dressed in white coats gathered around, fervently discussing a dissected Demon Race individual lying before them. Nearby, one of them was frantically taking notes.

"Take note: the Demon Runes on a Demon Race's body are their power source. Players infected by Demon Qi will also form Demon Runes, but they cannot fully master them.

"Also, there's the Demon Core within a Demon Race's body, similar to the Golden Core of Human Race Cultivators. However, their Demon Core is where their Life Essence lies.

"Once the Demon Core shatters, that Demon Race individual will completely perish. We can't truly eradicate them just by decapitation.

"These creatures are genuinely fascinating. I've studied biology my entire life, and this is the first time I'm researching such beings—especially within a game. Feel free to add anything else you've observed."

A player with the ID 'Life Supreme' adjusted his glasses and then shared their current research findings on the Demon Race.

Although the Demon Race Invasion had ceased, it hadn't affected their motivation to study the Demon Race. In their eyes, every part of a Demon Race was a treasure.

"Teacher, if we want to harness the power of the Demon Race, do we have to start with the Demon Runes?" The player taking notes, with 'Biological Apprentice' displayed above his head, looked towards Life Supreme with a thirst for knowledge.

The others also watched him nervously.

Life Supreme nodded slightly. "In theory, yes. But to obtain Demon Runes, one must possess a Demon Core. Put simply, although the Demon Core is their source of life, it is also crucial in forming Demon Runes. If we want to have Demon Runes, we must have a Demon Core inside our bodies. I'm not completely sure how to achieve that. This will require numerous experiments to yield final results. However, these experiments require us to find people to conduct them.

"We should rank this experiment as top priority. I'm going to recruit a group of players immediately, promising them a certain number of Contribution Points. If the Demon Rune experiment succeeds, we will also possess the key to becoming Demon Race!"

Hearing this, the group was immediately thrilled. The method of Racial Transformation they knew at this stage was merely the least effective: Demonization after Demon Qi Infection. To truly become Demon Race, extensive experimentation was still needed. Now that they had the basics for the experiment, they needed to conduct more clinical trials.

Immediately, Biological Apprentice put away his notes and excitedly rushed towards the Profound Yellow Sect's plaza.

"A breakthrough in Demon Race transformation research! We now require a large number of players for experiments! The House of Evolution is recruiting interested players, offering 50 Contribution Points per trial!"

This announcement instantly attracted a swarm of players. Such recruitment was not new. Veteran Players had done similar things before, like during Planting Herbs. Even Dung Beetle had once recruited players to taste Stinky Tofu. So, the players were quite used to it.

But now? The prospect of Demon Race transformation enticed many players. They had witnessed the power of the Demon Race, and the option for players to choose their identities had also recently opened up. If they could directly become Demon Race, it would undoubtedly be a massive boost to their own power.

"Holy shit, is the House of Evolution really this hardcore?"

"The research on Demon Race transformation is out! It seems choosing a Demon Race Identity isn't far off. Anyone want to try playing as Demon Race?"

"I want to play as Demon Race! I want to become the number one Demon Race!"

"Count me in! The Human Race Identity is boring now. Let's try playing as Demon Race and have some fun."

Immediately, a large number of Fourth Test Players chose to become Demon Race.

Why? The advantages for Fourth Test Players weren't significant. In the eyes of Veteran Players, the gap between the two groups was like heaven and earth. One reason was having too few Contribution Points, completely insufficient for their needs. The other was the disparity in power. The Combat Power List's Top Ten was filled with Veteran Players, and there wasn't a single Fourth Test Player in the Top 100.

The only one remotely notable was King of Spraying King Pen Duanchang, who had managed to enter the Top 1,000 of the Combat Power List. But what good did that do? To boost his power, King of Spraying King Pen Duanchang was practically playing with his life. This guy was online for twenty out of twenty-four hours a day. Plus, he had an initial Ten Thousand Contribution Points to back him up. If he were willing to spend his Contribution Points, he could probably break into the Top 100 of the Contribution List. But this guy was rather arrogant, refusing to join any Hall and insisting on being a Wanderer. Moreover, he hardly spent any Contribution Points to improve his power. Anyone who tried to recruit him before was directly 'sprayed' away. The guy had a foul temper, 'spraying' at everyone he encountered. Even many Veteran Players had been 'sprayed' by him.

So, if Fourth Test Players wanted to stand out in this Great Era, they felt they had to make a choice. What choice? The Demon Race! They would forsake their Human Race Identity to become Demon Race, leveraging the Demon Race Identity to boost their own power and charge up the Combat Power List.

News from the House of Evolution also spread to the other major Halls. Upon learning this, many Veteran Players were curious. They had fought Demon Race before and knew how strong they were. If the people from the House of Evolution truly mastered the method of transforming humans into Demon Race, it would undoubtedly be a threat to the Veteran Players!
