Beating Instances through Words Left by the Dead

Chapter 997: Chapter 417: Extraordinary and Conflict_2

”This is...”

Wu Chang couldn’t be bothered to explain too much and simply said, ”It’s a miracle.”

”I see,” Li Xingyao said, realizing.

Wu Chang didn’t know what Li Xingyao understood, but from his performance, Li Xingyao seamlessly accepted everything in front of him. Wu Chang once again marveled at how useful the absolute logical effect really was.

When He Yun and Li Xingyao discussed, they didn’t use mechanical puppets; instead, they conducted a remote meeting.

Unlike the Steam Phantom Plane in the steam era, in the real world, machinery is everywhere. Her ritual can freely traverse without needing an additional carrier.

Though it was a discussion, it was essentially He Yun giving unilateral instructions.

The result of the discussion was that their registered ”New Future” company would use a fully automated security system as the entry point, first controlling all electronic equipment in Wanghai City, mastering Wanghai City’s eyes and ears.

Subsequently, they would bring over other products from Hymn Company and completely transform Wanghai City.

With the assembly process of the Super Factory, He Yun had already used her consciousness to visit other companies in the park.

In just a few minutes, she understood the manufacturing capabilities of Wanghai Xiaogui Valley and selected the parts that could be used.

She listed the raw materials needed for production and had Li Xingyao send people to procure them.

With Wu Chang’s demonstration, He Yun quickly mastered the knack for communicating with Li Xingyao.

Give orders when needed, and if it’s inconvenient to answer, just say it’s a miracle.

With Li Xingyao’s cooperation, they set the development trajectory of the New Future Company in just half an hour.

As the real-world Super Factory began to operate, Wu Chang initially planned to take He Yun to Stilan, but He Yun said the construction of the Underground Shelter was at a critical time and she couldn’t leave just yet; it would be a couple of days before she could.

Wu Chang calculated the time, which coincided with his trip to the Realm of Reason, so he told He Yun not to rush and that she could call him anytime she was ready.

In the next two days, the real world was bustling. Both the ordinary people and the Transcendent side were causing quite a stir.

First, on the ordinary side, the approaching World Dungeon made the wild Transcendents worldwide increase steadily.

On various social platforms, there were constant appearances of self-proclaimed ”new humans” or ”mutants” claiming to be wild Transcendents. Their numbers and widespread presence made it difficult for the platforms to control.

In just two days, any user of any social media, regardless of their usual viewing preferences, more or less became aware of the existence of Transcendents.

This change was due not only to the explosion of wild Transcendents but also to the Bright Society or Evolution Sect fanning the flames behind the scenes.

This time, the public uproar was too intense, clearly premeditated. Not only were there endless videos of Transcendents proving themselves, but there was also an influx of heat-chasing analyses and technical analysis posts questioning authenticity, keeping the heat going.

Coupled with a massive army of bots flooding the comment sections indiscriminately, any popular video would have all sorts of Transcendent-related replies underneath.

With this combination of tactics, the existence of Transcendents was firmly established.

People’s understanding of the Extraordinary deepened, and they gradually grasped the power of Transcendents. Under the First Law of Mysticism, this triggered a series of issues.

The most direct impact was the Erosion Dungeon.

Currently, all players in the Desolate Realm are focused entirely on the World Dungeon, but that doesn’t mean the other dungeons in the Desolate Realm will temporarily cease.

On the contrary, there are more near-unstable dungeons than at any other time.

Part of this results from the Dark Thunder left during the qualification dungeon, where many luck-attempting players died in the real-world dungeon, causing the pollution level of the real-world dungeon to rise sharply, nearing instability.

The other part is because high-pollution-value dungeons that originally needed a Breakthrough did not get dealt with.

According to the original Desolate Realm’s operating Rules, when a dungeon’s pollution level surpasses the safety value and risks instability, a Breaker needs to step in.

Breakers of high-pollution-value dungeons are the elites among players, their strength already surpassing ordinary current players, excelling at clearing dungeons, allowing them to often acquire Items during dungeon clears.

These players aim to break through to the World Dungeon, so why would they risk their Life dealing with other dungeon Breakthroughs at such a crucial time?

These Breakers are core members of various organizations. Whether the Four Major Organizations or frontline organizations, it’s unlikely they would let their most capable players abandon the World Dungeon to focus solely on ordinary dungeon Breakthroughs.

Thus, from the beginning of the preparation for the qualification dungeon, the high-pollution-value dungeons in the Desolate Realm have been in a state of only increase, without reduction.

The combination of these two factors makes the number of near-unstable dungeons in the Desolate Realm so high it’s daunting.

Everyone is waiting, waiting to get past the World Dungeon before dealing with them.

But just like Murphy’s Law suggests, things tend to change for the worse.

Near-unstable dungeons can trigger anomalies in the real world, like when the Moonlight Sanatorium was about to go out of control, Wanghai City had three consecutive days of a snowstorm at the end of March.

If it was before, people would just marvel at the abnormal weather without further thought.

But now, knowing about Transcendents, when people see anomalies, they can’t help but speculate whether these phenomena are related to the Extraordinary.

As more people start thinking, people’s consciousness and the near-unstable dungeon attract each other, breaking the already fragile Plane barriers and causing the dungeon to become uncontrolled, turning into the Erosion Dungeon descending upon the human world.
