Another Battlefield

Yashan's "gaze" swept across the large area around him, which was distorted by multiple Forbidden Spells and presented a Chaos color.

Then, He raised His hand—an extremely simple gesture.

In an instant, the Mana within a radius of several kilometers was seized by an invisible hand, instantly erupting and then Annihilation, transforming into other Berserk and chaotic elemental energies.

The celestial phenomena then changed drastically, as if the sky had collapsed and the earth had crumbled, turning that area into Chaos energy field dominated by Him.

"It's best to be cautious and secure the setup to avoid any unexpected setbacks. If it's a level 10 Boss Monster, it will likely be much more troublesome."

While manipulating this world-destroying power, Yashan was calmly performing another calculation deep within his soul:

"Upgrading the Tinder to [Legendary] quality requires a little over a million fragments, so... a higher quality would require at least thirty to forty million fragments, right?"

"The 25th wave only gives 2.2 million Tinder Shards. Even if I use various buff cards in the later waves, I probably won't be able to upgrade to the next quality before the 30th wave, not to mention I might not be able to beat the later waves..."

"Legendary quality [Tinder] should be the limit, and also the limit for the world's top professionals..."

In a completely different battlefield, inside the [Tinder] Hall of Consciousness, the atmosphere was so oppressive that it felt as if everyone had died.

[Planar Stalker] Layton hunched his massive frame as much as possible in the chair, his signature bulbous nose appearing even redder than usual. Beside him, [Armor Hero] Binluk nervously rubbed his forearm, which was covered by an arm armor, making a soft rustling sound.

"Fuck! How are we supposed to play like this?" Binluk's voice was filled with barely suppressed impatience. "Why are these guys all so freakish?!"

"It's all because you're useless. You've consumed so many resources and you're still so weak." Layton covered his red nose, his tone full of disappointment.

"Huh?" Binluk whirled around, his eyes wide, pointing at the various figures around the round table, their auras thick and unsettling. "Layton, you son of a bitch! I'm just a high-level professional! You want me to compare myself to this... this group of monsters?! Have you lost your mind because of the 'Great Rift' outside the area?!"

"Ordinary people with Forbidden Class are just sent here for free... Do you even want some fried dough?"

"I think you can do it, I believe in you," Layton said.

Binluk paused for a moment, then glanced around the field once more.

A pale-faced man with pure white eyes had disgusting lumps constantly writhing and Regeneration on his Consciousness Entity, and it felt as if countless limbs were churning wildly inside his body. Binluk couldn't understand why there were fleshy things on his Consciousness Entity.

He would suddenly disappear from the hall from time to time, only to return moments later, as if even maintaining the stability of his consciousness was extremely difficult.

He calls himself "Great Heavenly Bright Vast True Lord," and his words carry an indifferent and mocking air as he looks down upon all living beings; his Essence is self-evident.

The area beside Him did not contain any common humanoid Consciousness Entities, but only a bottomless, abyssal Abyss that opened and closed continuously, as if it could devour anything.

Layton and Binluk both recognized him; it was that long-tongued madman from the first District War! His features were very distinctive.

They initially thought that although he was insane, he was still a human being.

Looking at it today, it's clear that the probability of Forbidden Existence is absolutely far greater than the probability of a human being! What normal human Consciousness Entity even has a mouth?!

There was also a woman, her figure indistinct and her face shrouded in Mist, sitting quietly to one side, her aura as unfathomable as Abyss. Layton couldn't fathom her depths, but he still believed she was Forbidden Existence.

Because someone identified her.

The person who identified her was a young man who looked very sunny and even had a touch of youthful naiveté.

"I've fought her before. She's not from our world; she's Forbidden Existence."

The young man uttered a simple sentence, yet everyone in the audience listened intently, simply because he was—

[The True Savior], recipient of the Supreme rating, the world's undisputed and recognized number one professional – Ye Fan.

"So how many Forbidden Existence in this game? The District War are almost over, and we can't even tell if we're human or ghosts," someone said with dissatisfaction.

Layton kept his mouth shut and almost never spoke in the public channel. In this battlefield where special ability users and Forbidden Existence crammed together, he, a mere Karami who hadn't even reached the extreme value level, was truly insignificant.

Upon hearing this, the woman with the blurred face looked up, and a low chuckle seemed to come from beneath the Mist: "At least four."

From another direction, a man who hadn't opened his eyes the entire time suddenly spoke, his voice icy and lifeless, as if it came from a grave mound. "At least, six."

The "Great Heavenly Bright Vast True Lord"—the clueless man—who had just regained consciousness, rolled his eyes upon hearing these words, as if he were rolling his eyes.

With a mocking and crazed tone, He said, "All of them, alright? Since we're all Forbidden Existence, let's find a way to have a fight first?"

Layton sighed wearily, unable to discern anything, and shook his head at Binluk:

"I don't want to play Werewolf..."

Moreover, in this ridiculously intense battlefield, Layton isn't even considered an idiot.

"It's alright, it's good enough to have Werewolf to play. Maybe the upcoming District War will be more interactive and turn into a battle royale?" Binluk comforted him.

It would be better not to offer any comfort at all.

Layton sighed again.

How can Land of Darkness be built while surrounded by these insects?

"What the hell are these monsters and demons? Are other battlefields like this too?"

At that moment, the clueless man opposite them smiled and held up a card.

"Get ready," Su Luo said simply, holding a few cards in her hand.

[Wave Repetition Card) ], [Monster Quantity Amplification Card) ], [Wave Mirror Card) ], [Monster Quantity Increase Card (Random)], [Buff Application Card) ], [Wave Mirror Card) ], [Harvest Card) ]

I used up everything I could, including the previously reserved Targeted Buff Cards for myself, and also used up all the random buff cards.

The others were similar.

At the same time, everyone can enjoy some buff-like benefits.

The total number of cards in the third group exceeded fifty, not including the specific type of cards that everyone used on themselves.

Jiang Mengrui held a stack of cards in her hand, hesitated for a moment, and then took out two more cards.

[Attack Copy Card) ]

[After use, Copy the attack data from the past minute. Random area.]

[Full Conversion Card) ]

[After use, the effect of a card of the same quality will be changed to be effective for all cards.]

"I will use it 59 seconds after the start. You guys need to finish quickly."

Thank you, Ms. Jiang.

"We can never repay Lord Jiang's kindness!"

"Thank you, Miss Jiang! I didn't know you had this kind of card."

"Miss Jiang is beautiful and kind-hearted! If the Scholars bury you in shit again next time, I, Gai Li, will be the first to object!"

"I disagree!"

Jiang Mengrui: "... Stop talking, let's begin."
