CHAPTER 383: CHAPTER 383: IDENTITY EXPOSED

Crack...

The crisp sound of shattering glass exploded in everyone’s ears.

Baiyu’s expression changed.

In the hands of the Rain Master, the Crimson Chalice shattered into tiny shards, transforming mid-air into strands of red gas that disappeared without a trace.

In an instant.

The light enveloping everyone vanished.

"Rain Master, what is happening?"

The Third Prince asked coldly, contrary to his usual demeanor.

With a hint of shock in his deep voice, the Rain Master replied, "A high-ranked entity; the power brought down by the Chalice is not enough to contend with this entity.

We are about to fall into a Simulation Realm.

Third Prince, this was my mistake.

If we return safely, I will personally confess my faults to Eternal Sleep City."

His emotions were utterly complex at that moment.

Even a fragment of the Chalice’s power is something that ordinary false gods cannot resist.

To encounter a high-ranked entity comparable to the Chalice.

He never expected to encounter such a formidable opponent in Maple Leaf County.

This was entirely a risk and accident beyond control.

They had to enter Maple Leaf County, as this was their task from Eternal Sleep City, and the Third Prince had his own mission and objectives.

They must come here.

So now, the result was something for which everyone was somewhat prepared.

However.

Now that they have come, but the method had gone awry.

"There’s no point in saying more; let’s resolve the current situation first, and when we enter the Simulation Realm, do not panic, remember to take the suppressant medicine."

The Third Prince decisively reached into his pocket, took out a medicinal pill, and swallowed it.

Simulation Realm.

A unique area formed under abnormal circumstances.

It often brims with terrifying pollutants and various bizarre anomalies, significantly increasing the risk of human mutation.

Once mutated.

It means death.

The darkness accelerated its engulfing of the surroundings, and everyone hurriedly took out their suppressant medicine prepared earlier and swallowed it.

In a short while.

The power of the Chalice completely dispersed.

A curtain of darkness enveloped the surroundings, and everyone entered the vast Simulation Realm covering Maple Leaf County.

The sky, pitch-black and lightless.

The air tinged with the scent of rust.

Fine iron particles hovered all around.

Truly, it’s the aura of the God of Steam and Mechanics.

After falling into the Simulation Realm.

Everyone could see the surroundings more clearly and could more distinctly observe the battle situation of Linjiang City.

From everything seen now.

Linjiang City had clearly fallen, utterly defeated.

Perhaps most of the city, within the Simulation Realm, no longer had many survivors.

However.

The attackers paid a terrible price to assault such a city.

The streets were littered with bodies.

"Linjiang City has been breached by demons, and the status of the shelter is temporarily unknown, but I think the Linjiang City Shelter should have initiated emergency measures."

The Third Prince held a fist-sized glass orb, reporting the scene to it.

Clearly, this was a magical item that recorded visuals and sound.

In the Simulation Realm, most electronic devices fail; recording footage is only possible through some special magical items.

"The foreign race broke through here but did not stay, was it merely an attack out of spite?"

An adviser asked.

However.

Clearly, most people didn’t believe it.

The demons spent so long, only to seize a city out of spite.

The most critical point is.

If they can’t establish a Flesh Gate afterwards, the foreign races remaining on Canglan Star will eventually be exterminated.

Water without a source.

How long could they sustain?

They couldn’t waste such effort to conquer a city only to leave hastily.

"We’ll first check the entrance to the Linjiang City Shelter; if it hasn’t been destroyed, it indicates that the shelter’s situation remains stable."

The Third Prince decided.

The shelter was indeed considered a way out for them.

Baiyu also really wanted to know if the shelter had fallen; Pang Fei and the others were likely still inside the shelter.

...

Black Abyss City.

More than a week had passed since the primordial will within the Sea Giant attempted to awaken last time.

In this period.

Zi E stayed in the underground Water Prison where the Sea Giant was kept, continuously strengthening her connection with the Sea Giant.

At the same time, Black Abyss City was trying its best to repair the seal within the Sea Giant.

Even to suppress the primordial will within the Giant.

Zi E did not hesitate to ask her father, the Fourth Celestial Demon King, to personally suppress the primordial will of the Sea Giant.

Her mission this time could be said to be a complete failure.

Not only did it cause damage to the Sea Giant.

It also brought shame to Black Abyss City.

On the side of the Ghost-faced Race and demons, whether it was Corpse Giants, Flame Giants, or Stone Giants, they all achieved results that were even better than expected.

It was only her.

Returning in defeat.

This was a tremendous blow to the reputation of Black Abyss City and the Demon Race.

"Zi E, in Linjiang City, we’ve found the trace of that man you mentioned, and he’s accompanied by experts from Eternal Sleep City and the royalty of the East Prosperity Imperial.

Because of the uniqueness of the Simulation Realm created by the Eternal Church.

They cannot pilot the Legendary Ship into the Simulation Realm."

Zi Luo came up from behind, glanced at the Sea Giant lying silently in the underground Water Prison, and said coldly, "Father has given you a chance to redeem yourself; kill them.

By the way.

You must capture alive the boy who triggered the change in the Giant.

Father is very interested in him.

Even if he is the reincarnation of an old monster, without a Legendary Ship, he cannot be a match for the Giant.

All the demons left in Linjiang City are at your command.

Even if you can’t capture him alive, you must find out why he can cause changes in the Giant.

This could alter the entire demon world’s power structure.

Remember.

This operation only allows success, and if it fails, take responsibility yourself."

Zi E stood, eyes burning with the fire of vengeance, "Rest assured, without a Legendary Ship, there’s no way I can fail.

Unexpectedly, there are still intruders in the Simulation Realm.

How is the battle in Zenith City?"

"Hmph, it’s in an intense battle.

However, the Earth Race of the Endless World seems to be desperate.

It’s fine to let them go all out.

Although the aliens from the Endless World are not strong overall, there are a few monsters among them that can cause quite a bit of trouble for Zenith City.

The tenacity of these Earth Race people is truly alarming.

However.

They lack the wit to distinguish enemies from friends."

Zi Luo sneered coldly.

But there was no optimistic look on Zi E’s face as she continued to ask, "So, does it mean the battle in Zenith City is going to fail? Is the Eternal Church that frightening?"

"Hmph, do you think a main city of a province would lack terrifying entities guarding it?

It’s not just the Eternal Church.

In recent days.

All those ancient monsters wielding Forbidden Spirit Techniques and Divine Techniques of Tier Two have emerged.

If it weren’t for the natives of the Endless World to bear the brunt, we would’ve been severely weakened by now.

At this stage of the battle.

It depends on whether those natives can summon their ’gods’, those supreme entities lost in the rivers of time."

Zi Luo’s face showed a look of anticipation.
