Chapter 449: Chapter 350: Coordinates Revisited_2
’Secret Practitioner’ and ’Rabbit’ were dumbfounded. Although they knew the lone S-class unregistered player of the ’Deceit Bureau’ was powerful, they never imagined he could be this powerful.
"Ladies, just so you know—don’t spread this around. After all, we don’t know how His Excellency the ’lamp holder’ would react if this matter were to get out." As he finished recounting, ’Mr. Death’ didn’t forget to give them a warning.
’Secret Practitioner’ and ’Rabbit’ exchanged a glance and nodded in tacit agreement, falling silent afterward.
At the same time, Yang Qizhou had no leisure to eavesdrop on ’Secret Practitioner’ and their conversation in the Spirit Domain. Upon hearing from ’Mr. Death’ that the gaze of the ’Master of Millions’ had moved away from ’Asgard,’ the nerves that had just relaxed instantly tensed again, his mood growing profoundly heavy.
"The ’Master of Millions’ shifting his gaze means he’s already discovered the dual betting tactic in the ’Doomsday Land’ and has inferred that the game character has left ’Asgard.’
"Next, the ruler of ’Mysterious Town’ will undoubtedly begin a full pursuit, and due to the traces left by the game character earlier, he will soon locate the ’Land of Prayer Light.’
"Time is running out for the game character."
"As the two worlds become increasingly intertwined, it’s certain the game character will soon learn of this matter."
Murmuring inwardly to himself, Yang Qizhou refocused all his attention on the phone before him, unwilling to spare even a moment’s distraction.
At that moment, the text was automatically and gradually refreshing.
...
"You gaze ahead and behold a scene out of myth..."
"A giant gate stands ten meters tall, adorned with carvings and bearing the likeness of a priest clad in a pure white Divine Robe. His golden hair, gemstone-green eyes, and faintly smiling lips exude an eerie serenity. He sits upon a jade throne surrounded by countless ’divinities’ bowing in servitude."
"This depiction is identical to what you saw the last time you came here; nothing has changed."
"A surge of awe wells up in your heart."
"You prepare to enter the ’Truth Hut,’"
"But just as this intent forms, a sudden and inexplicable realization surfaces within your mind—a revelation derived from ’Fate.’ It informs you that the ’Master of Millions’ has indeed discovered the dual betting tactic in the ’Doomsday Land,’ and his gaze has departed from ’Asgard.’ He may soon trace his way here."
"Urgency blossoms within, cutting short your contemplation as you swiftly dash into the Truth Hut."
"You arrive at the first-floor church."
"The oil paintings on the walls, the grandeur of the architecture, and the imposing chandelier—all remain unchanged since your last visit. The one difference, however, is that the ’Revelation’ has disappeared from the prayer platform."
"Malevolent intent threatens to descend at any moment; naturally, you wouldn’t waste time here."
"Having experienced the previous threads of Fate, you’re keenly aware of how to ascend to the upper levels of the ’Truth Hut’ to locate the coordinates left by the ’Correct Wizard King.’ Without hesitation, you move toward the entrance behind the prayer platform."
"It’s at this moment that ’Seventeen’s’ astonished voice echoes in your mind... ’2nd Truth Hall? Why is it here.’
"’Are you saying the Truth Hut is the Truth Hall?’
"You ask in shock, though your feet keep moving, quickly reaching the space behind the prayer platform and preparing to ascend the stairwell to the second floor."
"’Seventeen’ firmly confirms... ’Yes, this is the Truth Hall. Yet strangely, I can’t sense the hall’s operational imperatives.’
"Clearly, ’Seventeen’ finds it incomprehensible for the ’Truth Hut’ to appear within the ’Land of Prayer Light.’
"You catch the implications of the words but don’t dwell on them. The looming threat of the ’Master of Millions’ remains present, and escaping his gaze by entering the ’Land of Truth’ takes precedence. Distractedly, you reply...
"’Could it be that the Truth Hut—oh, no, the 2nd Truth Hall—shouldn’t have shown up here?’
"’Seventeen’ provides a definitive answer... ’Of course not. The 2nd Truth Hall, managed by the ’Correct Wizard King,’ should logically reside closest to both the 1st Truth Hall and the throne of the ’Lord of Blasphemy.’ Yet here, it’s not only far removed from those locations, but it also resides outside the ’Land of Truth,’ which is absolutely anomalous.’
"The Truth Hut—no, the ’2nd Truth Hall’—which should be at the core of the ’Land of Truth,’ has instead emerged within the depths of the ’Land of Prayer Light,’ adjacent to the ’Land of Truth.’ Moreover, it contains the ’Correct Wizard King’s’ coordinates—key to entering the ’Land of Truth.’
"Is this mere coincidence?"
"Or was it arranged long ago?"
"While your thoughts swirl, you ascend to the second floor, arriving at a dim corridor flanked by rows of doors."
"Suddenly, terrifying tremors erupt, shaking the entire ’Land of Prayer Light’ violently. A dreadful aura rolls in like a tidal wave from the desert, observable outside the windows. Among the dimly lit sky and earth, countless luxuriant flowers bloom, framing a monstrous figure gradually coming into focus, its gaze settling upon the Truth Hut."
"The ’Master of Millions.’"
"Having uncovered the dual betting tactic in the ’Doomsday Land,’ he utilizes the remnants of the Dota Clan Relics as an intermediary to interfere with the Real World, intent on capturing you."
"As this realization crystallizes in your thoughts, you hastily rein in your wandering mind to focus, ignoring the anguished ravings leaking from the doors around you, and prepare to sprint toward the third floor."
"That’s where the ’Correct Wizard King’s’ coordinates reside."
"But just two steps into your dash, an unbearable stiffness consumes your body, as though it were saturated with mercury. Your mind begins to freeze as well. Then, your skin reveals an abhorrent sight—white worms repeatedly burrowing in and out, stirring nausea."
"This is a ’Parasite.’
"A power inflicted upon you by the ’Master of Millions.’
"Even separated by such distance, shielded by the Truth Hut, and with the ’Master of Millions’ not even manifesting his true form, he can still impose this horrifying influence upon you. Truly daunting."
"You cannot help but marvel at the terror of ’Mysterious Town.’
"You waste no time and immediately attempt to leverage the effects of the ’Residual Ring of the King of Truth’ to dispel the parasitic white worms from your body."
"Yet it’s entirely ineffective."
"This ’Super Legendary Magical Item,’ potent as it may be, fails to move the white worms in the slightest."
"As the monstrous presence inches closer, anxiety surges within you, compelling you to employ the power of the ’King of Nature,’ leveraging the ’pillar’s’ attributes to expel the white worms."
"But the results are equally negligible."
"The white worms exhibit incredible resilience, their activity only slowing for two seconds under the power of the ’King of Nature,’ before quickly regaining their vigor."
"Repeated attempts lead to empty results, deepening your panic."
"By now, the dreadful shadow is descending."
"Faced with imminent calamity, an idea suddenly strikes you: if only a ’pillar’ can contend with another ’pillar,’ then is it safe to assume that only the ’Nameless Land’ can combat the ’Nameless Land?’"
"With time running out, there’s no room for hesitation. You immediately invoke the power of the ’Disaster Furnace,’ intertwining yourself with the ancient Doomsday Land, and unleash the ’Doomsday Fire Light,’ conceptually burning away the parasitic white worms spawned by the ’Master of Millions.’
"The white worms quickly perish."
"Your body regains mobility as stiffness fades. Unwilling to delay, you rush forward at the fastest pace toward the third floor."
"You traverse the dark corridor, ascend the staircase, and soon arrive on the third floor."
"Once again, you see the apparition dressed in the white priestly robe."
