Dimensional Codex System: I'm really not a cultist!-Chapter 1591 - 1589: The Tone Immediately Changed (No Major Issues)

Chapter 1591: Chapter 1589: The Tone Immediately Changed (No Major Issues)

This land is already severely damaged.

To find an exit, Fang Zheng has ordered the fleet to search everywhere, but wherever they look, there’s nothing but a dilapidated ruin, with many places even completely collapsed. This land seems like a ship that barely didn’t sink after a storm, just drifting with the currents.

"Hmm?"

However, after seeing the panoramic view of this continent sent by the fleet, Fang Zheng was stunned for a moment.

Why does this place look somewhat familiar?

"Activate the detection signal in area A."

"Yes, Commander."

Hearing Fang Zheng’s order, Iona nodded her head, then waved her hand casually, and Fang Zheng saw a peculiar city. It was a circular city, not too big but not too small. Within, the hustle and bustle of the crowd could be seen, but most interestingly, these people had something on top of their heads that Fang Zheng found quite familiar.

Health bars.

"Wait, isn’t this the real world?"

"We are currently in the gap between the real world and the Psychic World, so anything appearing in the Outland isn’t surprising."

Crystal Head seemed quite calm.

So, this is a space where reality and the game intersect?

Fang Zheng furrowed his brows. In fact, when he saw that city, Fang Zheng already guessed which world this was. But he didn’t expect to find himself here... well, considering the Soulstone he had, it wasn’t that surprising. The problem is that this world is not real.

Indeed, this is a Game World, but different from a game world like SAO, strictly speaking, it should be closer to a place like the Shield Hero World where virtual reality and reality coexist. Moreover, from what can be seen so far, the "game" components seem heavier compared to the Shield Hero World.

Through the screen, Fang Zheng could see a Minotaur Warrior outside the city fighting a human thief, going back and forth evenly matched, and finally, the Minotaur Warrior stunned the thief with a charge and took him down in one go. And soon after, Fang Zheng saw the human thief resurrected in a nearby graveyard...

"This is Burning Crusade..."

Rubbing his chin, Fang Zheng squinted his eyes, then glanced at Crystal Head.

"So what next? What should we do?"

"That’s your problem, Sir."

"Alright."

Shrugging at Crystal Head’s words, Fang Zheng said.

"Then let me have a look first."

As he spoke, Fang Zheng raised his hand, soon the power of Magic began to dance at his fingertips, then Fang Zheng closed his eyes, his soul and spirit delving into this world, probing its essence.

Countless emotions swept in, anger, joy, hatred, love, all sorts of emotions interwoven here. They coalesce from various worlds, focusing on this game, forming a center here. Data is their flesh, emotions are their power, recreating and rebirthing centered on this dead world.

Intertwined and merged into one.

A Divine Kingdom.

Just like the world where Deities are coalesced by the faith of their believers, this world was the same. This land once belonged to a Deity, it once had great power and strength. But in the end, there was only this remnant left, believers disappeared, divinity destroyed, Divine Position taken, and even itself became wandering, non-combustible debris drifting in the Star Realm.

But this doesn’t mean the end, relying on beliefs coming from afar, this world is gradually being reborn in a unique way. 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚

Even Fang Zheng had to admit, the Star Realm is indeed a magical place.

However, that’s as far as it went.

As Fang Zheng attempted to explore further and look for a passage, he was rejected by this world. After all, what Fang Zheng was attempting was similar to trying to pass through a lady’s bedroom, and then jump out the window to the street on the other side.

More importantly, he was a complete stranger to this lady.

Directly bulldozing it down was impossible, because only that "window" was the key point, if Fang Zheng flattened the lady’s room, then without the "window," he would have no way to reach the other side of the street.

But trying to build a relationship with that lady was also difficult because it involved the potential rebirth of a deceased Divine Spirit - it was now accumulating faith and energy through the "emotions" of these players from countless worlds. And these things were the wealth the lady had stored in her room, if she let Fang Zheng in, who knows if Fang Zheng would just run off with the dowry she painstakingly saved up?

What more could Fang Zheng say about this?

Since you don’t give face, then I’ll just have to resolve this my way.

Thinking this, Fang Zheng raised his hands and quickly began to type.

For other Divine Kingdoms, trying to invade them would be extremely difficult. But Fang Zheng is different, since Fang Zheng is the God of Games, and currently, the core of this Divine Kingdom’s rebirth is the game. If it were another Deity, perhaps Fang Zheng really couldn’t do anything about it. But since it was a data-centric game library, then it was a different matter.

A database itself isn’t invulnerable, clearly the predecessor of this Divine Kingdom didn’t learn programming codes, so it simply didn’t know how to deal with Fang Zheng’s invasion... or rather, it didn’t even notice it.

And when Fang Zheng opened his eyes again, he just snapped his fingers lightly, and soon, everyone found an inexplicable new interface appearing in front of their eyes, and at the same time, a health bar appeared above their heads as well.

"What is this, big brother?"

Little Hei curiously reached out to fiddle with the interface in front of him, while asking.

"Because of a small problem, we have to use other methods to open a passage to the other side."

Fang Zheng smiled slightly as he said this.

"Next... I have something I need you to help with..."

Outland, Nagrand.

For the players, this vast plain has long been a place they don’t want to come to farm creatures, it’s wide with few people, and not much in terms of rewards.

Thunder in the Crotch was similar; as a hunter, he had no choice but to complete his tasks here. Compared to other places, running these errands here was truly annoying.

Especially the arena...

However, just as Thunder in the Crotch was galloping across the grasslands of Nagrand on his mount, he was shocked to notice a girl standing by the edge of the forest, and there was a big exclamation mark above her head.

This was clearly a quest!

Seeing this, Thunder in the Crotch, being a player, naturally wouldn’t ignore it. He immediately turned and headed in that direction. Soon, he arrived beside the girl, and seeing him come over, the girl in the pink dress with long silver-white hair waved at him.

"Ah, big brother, hello."

How cute!

Staring at the girl in front of him, Thunder in the Crotch felt a shiver down his spine. In this game, he had never seen such an adorable girl before; not only was her voice crisp, sweet, and pleasant, but she was super-duper cute too! In this game, most characters looked absolutely awful; Thunder in the Crotch was often too lazy to even look at them for fear of polluting his eyes. But facing this girl, Thunder in the Crotch only thought that she looked... so cute!

"My friends and I just arrived in this world and are collecting data for analysis... I wonder if you’d be willing to help me, big brother?"

Willing, willing, of course!

Facing the task prompt that appeared in front of him, Thunder in the Crotch quickly clicked confirm, and soon saw the task message.

[Ecological Survey]

[Task Description: This girl who has just arrived hopes you can help her investigate this place’s creatures and environment. You wouldn’t mind collecting some data for her, would you?]

Well, let’s give it a go!

With that thought, Thunder in the Crotch decisively accepted the task and then turned to start the quest.

For Thunder in the Crotch, the task wasn’t difficult, but it required a lot of things and was quite time-consuming. Initially, it was gathering herbs, then killing creatures to collect drops, and finally, he was asked to hunt the elite boss roaming the grassland.

Honestly, these tasks were incredibly tedious and complex, and after each task completion, that girl named Illya only gave him some experience and a few gold coins. From a player’s perspective, it was a real loss. In fact, if Illya weren’t cute enough and her voice pleasant enough, Thunder in the Crotch might have given up long ago.

Yet, relying on player spirit and determination, he managed to persist and finally completed the third step of the task — handing over the elite drops to Illya.

As a max-level hunter, soloing this elite boss was no easy feat, but it was doable.

"Thank you, big brother! Thanks to you, we were able to collect this data."

Taking the task drop that Thunder in the Crotch handed over, Illya smiled cheerfully, reached out, and took out a purple, octagonal crystal.

"Please accept this as your reward."

Oh? It’s not gold coins this time.

Seeing this, Thunder in the Crotch instantly perked up. He curiously took the crystal, and soon a prompt appeared.

[Mysterious Crystal: Click to open and get your weapon equipment]

Well then, click away.

With that thought, Thunder in the Crotch clicked to open the weapon.

Then — with a flash of golden light, a pitch-black, sci-fi-styled rifle appeared in Thunder in the Crotch’s hands!

Holy cow, what a cool thing is this!

Staring at the sci-fi value through the roof rifle in his hand, Thunder in the Crotch was stunned.

This world did have firearms, but they were all old-style rifles, so why did a cool pitch-black sci-fi style weapon appear?!

At the same time, the name of the gun also appeared before Thunder in the Crotch.

[Valkyrie Rifle]

[Damage: 173 — ???]

[Fire Rate: 0.5]

[Critical Hit +35]

[Agility +30]

[Stamina +21]

Wow!

Seeing this, Thunder in the Crotch was so scared he almost threw the rifle out of his hand — these attributes were enough to crush a 25-man team challenge! As an ordinary player, he couldn’t even find a decent team to take on a 25-man challenge, yet he managed to get something comparable to a 25-man challenge reward by doing a simple task here?

Oh my god, are you kidding me?

Just as Thunder in the Crotch was dumbstruck, another task prompt appeared before him.

[You have unlocked the Azure Fleet faction]

[Azure Fleet reputation with you: Neutral]

A brand new faction!

Now Thunder in the Crotch was utterly shocked; he was sure this faction had never appeared on the forums!

Could it be that his luck was this good and he activated a hidden faction side quest?!
