My Players Are So Fierce

The subspace rift, currently known as the most dangerous thing on the continent.

Two hundred years ago, the Blood Fear Clan opened an uncontrolled rift, resulting in the death of 300,000 people overnight and altering the geography of Ice Bay. Archduke Charlemagne, who committed the act, was personally executed by Lord Paryen, and the entire Blood Fear Clan was slaughtered down to the last 99 younglings.

The same kind of subspace rift opened under the Cadman City Ruins more than nine months ago. According to Triss’s estimation, once the rift explodes, it will directly tear apart the continental shelf of Transylvania, causing a secondary strike to the main continent.

These cruel examples all represent the inevitable horrifying casualties that follow once a subspace rift appears, although it actually has classifications as well.

For example, the kind of rift that Old Manse and Captain Vite opened, less than a meter, wouldn’t cause such terrifying consequences. Murphy calls those “subspace fractures,” which belong to a secondary disaster that can be mended by him with his hands.

The rifts that can truly trigger catastrophic events must be at least ten meters in tear width, approximately the height of a three-story building. The rift in Cadman City is of this scale, and in combat data records, this thing is referred to as a “small rift.”

The one opened by the Blood Fear Clan back then was even bigger. According to the personal experience of the pirate first mate Claire, the rift opened by Archduke Charlemagne that night reached about fifty meters.

That was basically the largest subspace rift that appeared on the continent during this era.

Of course, Murphy has seen larger ones.

In the ancient memories of the Eden District, the rift that destroyed the Golden Era opened above the heavens with a radius of at least three hundred meters, looking from the ground like a dazzling chaotic eye.

Such a scale of rift reshaped the world’s surface a thousand years ago, directly erasing the creator’s blueprint for the world and splitting the entire Eden District into pieces, thereby creating the current Dark Mountain Range.

That was a planetary extinction-level event.

And now, the subspace rift appearing under the R-9 base doesn’t reach the exaggerated radius of three hundred meters, but the widest part of this irregular rift has a diameter of over thirty meters.

Like a slightly opened mystical purple eye!

Suspended quietly in a vast cavity on the fourth underground level within a pale ring of light restraint, there’s a constructed stone bridge floating that reaches close to it. This is clearly a manipulation by heretics because strange altars and incomprehensible objects are placed at the end of the stone bridge.

Like a…

Experimental platform?

“Don’t move! Everyone don’t move! That’s how it goes in movies! At times like this, there’s always a fool who due to rash movements causes the originally stable seal to destabilize, leading the subspace rift to lose control and blow the entire Dark Mountain Range sky-high.”

The usually fearless giant shark was now trembling while babbling warnings to others, in his heart Vam’s roar had already twisted, The Fury was shouting for his believers to retreat quickly!

This is simply not a situation they can handle.

Other gods’ followers also heard warnings from their deities, but at this point, it’s like standing unknowingly in front of a nuclear bomb about to explode, you say you warn them, what good will that do!

Descend quickly to help us handle this situation, damn it!

Everyone stood there with this unexpectedly appearing “surprise,” and no one could make effective judgments in a short time, even the notoriously harsh Watcher Holy Blade was as quiet as a mouse now.

Perhaps it was pondering if it could survive the aftermath of this “firework” explosion?

Hmm, probably can.

After all, it was an extraordinary entity crafted by the God of Nature in the Divine Kingdom of Avalon, but Natalie, who recently has grown into a poised sword-wielder, probably can’t withstand this.

Alas, let’s bless this poor girl.

“Shut up! Don’t sing a requiem in my heart, I’m not dead yet.”

Natalie cursed quietly. Dragonflame Lina next to her was similarly at wit’s end, but she, being a graduate of the Circle Tower and a Spiritual Overlord, renowned for her wisdom, quickly recalled the warning just heard in this situation.

She said:

“Your warriors just said, for over a thousand years, most of this base’s energy has been suppressing this rift, so in other words, this thing has existed for over a thousand years? This isn’t an extinction event manufactured by heretics; this rift has been stable for a thousand years.

Theoretically, it shouldn’t suddenly deteriorate at this moment…”

“Hmm, makes sense.”

Lord Yvette nodded, reaching out to grasp Lena’s wrist seemingly to express some kind of affirmation, but was quickly shaken off by Lena like she’d touched something dirty.

“Go around it, don’t get close!”

Natalie headed forward with the Sacred Blade, she said:

“Let’s catch the Explorer first; that guy is the R-9 base’s chief, he surely knows more.”

“Ok.”

The players and Blood Covenant hunters responded in unison, even the boldest Wam Believers were treading lightly now, afraid to disturb the nearby “big baby” that had been dormant for over a thousand years, but the further they walked towards the fourth floor, the more off their state became.
