Blood Sea Corps

At the Magmafist Corps encampment, Mike chose to explore his surroundings instead of resting. 

With Shadow Three as his bodyguard, he felt safe enough to even attempt a striptease in front of the Ninth Demon God.

However, Mike was a cautious individual. This Abyssal expedition felt different.

Firstly, the Eyes of Truth had shown a 100% survival rate. Secondly, Apollo had personally assured him of his safety. Lastly, Mike's own strength had significantly increased, granting him a basic level of self-preservation.

Ultimately, it all boiled down to one's own capabilities. A greenhouse could never produce towering trees. For humanity to birth a fourth Supreme Being, a true pillar of strength, they needed to be tempered by life-or-death battles.

Mike's goal was to engage in those battles while ensuring his absolute safety.

Stepping out of his tent, he heard the sharp whistle of a weapon cutting through the air.
