"Blessing: High-Dimensional Perspective"

Specialty: Cannot be looked at directly.

Accompanied by streams of heat flowing in.

Roger felt his entire body brimming with power.

The initial nervousness of arriving had completely disappeared.

Instead, there is an urge to try it out!

but.

He quickly resisted the urge to summon the sprites.

Because he had not yet perceived the danger of it becoming a tangible reality.

Secondly.

He has someone by his side!

Through a normal two-dimensional perspective.

Roger couldn't make out their faces.

Fortunately, he has High-Dimensional Perspective.

Very soon.

He then confirmed that the figure less than ten squares away from him was Sophie.

And beside her.

Then a dark figure hopped and skipped along.

It's probably that Celestial Gods Race expert that Roger tricked before! It's quite obvious.

"The Black Crystal World" was not the ultimate move Olmerdo had prepared for Roger.

His true target should be a master of the Celestial Gods Race.

Or those Totem Creature that could cause great trouble.

As for Roger...

He was just locked up by chance.

Judging from the surrounding environment.

He was not treated differently.

This put Roger at ease.

The more the enemy underestimates you.

This gives him more room to maneuver.

This thought came to mind.

Roger skipped and hopped toward Sophie.

At the same time, he carefully perceived the information of the "Black Crystal World".

However, to his surprise...

I wonder if it's because it comes from the depths of the starry sky.

Roger was unable to find any information about the "Black Crystal World".

Both perception and Historical Knowledge have gone silent.

This is completely different from the situation when he entered the "Silent Forest"!

And while he was hopping around.

He only had a very basic understanding of his surroundings.

The room where he and Sophie and the others were located was in a very spacious suburban area.

There was a large gray iron gate not far away.

Behind the gate are countless spires that pierce the starry sky.

Lightning flashed above the spire.

The roar of the flying dragon could be faintly heard.

Things further away are shrouded in a "fog of perception".

Even High-Dimensional Perspective is very restrictive!

"It is indeed a bit dangerous..."

Roger stopped his bouncing steps thoughtfully.

The next second.

He shuddered.

"It's so cold!"

That instant.

He felt his body had become much stiffer.

There were no abnormalities in terms of what could be perceived.

Roger knew something was wrong.

But I wasn't in a hurry.

He controlled his character to ram the portrait of Sophie twice—

Fortunately, experience from the Two-Dimensional World still holds true.

The mechanism of character collisions triggering dialogue allows Roger to communicate with Sophie.

Each collision allows for one dialogue session.

The two collided violently about ten times.

A dark figure suddenly cut in from the side.

He replaced Sophie.

He took the initiative to make contact with Roger.

The shadowy figure clearly harbored hostility towards Roger.

After all, he was present when Roger took the knife.

However, Sophie must have explained some of the changes to him.

The shadowy figure did not attack Roger.

Instead, she skillfully communicated with Roger.

During the communication process.

Roger learned that the shadowy figure Felton.

He is Sophie's older brother.

He is also one of the Ten Hunters of the younger generation of the Celestial Gods Race.

As the next generation of top figures of the Celestial Gods Race.

Felton was extremely knowledgeable about the workings of the Starry Sky God Race.

Even this Black Crystal World.

He also possesses certain information.

After Roger promised to join him in fighting Olmerdo.

Felton then began to speak fluently:...

"The Black Crystal is a more dangerous place than Purgatory or the Abyss."

The crisis here comes not only from the ubiquitous Aberrant Creature and the Starry Sky God Race, Flooding Disaster like locusts.

It comes from the planet itself! You know...

The Black Crystal is a prison! It's a forbidden place used by the original gods to imprison evil creatures!

In order to punish those evil beings who have committed heinous crimes.

The gods have created a "Silent Field" here!...

The Silent Field will affect any living being that enters it.

It will continuously draw heat from your body.

Until your limbs are stiff and you can't move...

That is precisely why.

This planet has no day or night.

The only distinction is based on the level of activity in the Silent Field: Eternal Night and Peaceful Night.

On a calm night.

We can resist the cold through continuous activity.

Even Silent Field can draw heat from our bodies.

But they won't beat us to death! But Eternal Night is a different story.

That can really kill people!

Therefore, it is cold.

They are the most terrifying enemy in the world!

But this is for us.

What the gods did not expect was...

The monsters here have eventually evolved talents and specialties that are enough to counter the Silent Field.

The Starry Sky God Race, on the other hand, can escape the threat of the Silent Field thanks to their unique secret techniques.

So this is their home turf! They must be searching for us desperately right now!

Now.

Do you realize how terrible things are?

Speaking of which...

Felton's portrait has been changed to a very serious expression:

"If we want to survive, we must join forces!"

"We need to find tents and campfires strong enough to withstand the Extreme Cold of the eternal night before we encounter the first wave of monster attacks!"

"Based on the knowledge I've inherited, this is an extremely difficult task, because even on a calm night like this, we expend a lot of energy walking around, and sometimes blindly searching can actually put us in danger..."

"Anyway, being caught up in this world is the worst thing... Hmm... I hope to hear some good news from you."

Despite this.

But Felton's act of going to whisper to Sophie after speaking clearly showed that he didn't have any expectations for Roger.

Looking at Felton's bearded head.

Roger, however, fell into deep thought.

On the data panel.

The three gifts from the Deep Sea Giant Serpent have had their notes quietly changed.

"Heartwarming Torch: Once lit, you will gain 3 extra Movement Points (Silent Forest);..."

After it is lit.

You and your companion will receive an additional 9 points of heat (Black Crystal World).

at the same time.

Creatures within a 6-square radius of the torch.

"Will be spared from the depletion of the Silent Field"

"Sturdy Iron Shovel: You can use it to shovel away some obstacles (Silent Forest);"

You can use it to dig out some junk or valuable items from this world (Black Crystal Forest) in the 'ruins'.

"Durable Tent: Resting in the tent for 6 hours will grant you an additional 10 Movement Points (Silent Forest);..."

You can safely spend an eternal night (Black Crystal World) inside the tent.

"Life is truly amazing..."

Roger felt increasingly exhilarated as he looked at it.

Unexpectedly, the Big Serpent Bro's three-piece set not only had a miraculous effect in the Silent Forest.

It also has a decisive effect in the Black Crystal World.

Following this line of thought...

Did they go to another Two-Dimensional World?

Could the torch, shovel, and tent set also be useful for adapting to other worlds? If so.

That would be incredibly powerful.

"It can totally be used as a mini Cindy!"

Roger thought with jubilation.

Just thinking about Cindy.

He couldn't help but glance at the data column related to Cindy again.

Unexpectedly, this scan brought another pleasant surprise!

On the data panel.

"Cindy (All-Purpose): Place it in your Item Column and increase your Item Column slots by 1;

You can designate it as a wild card with any two affixes;...

Cindy's Second Form was detected.

The all-purpose item is being upgraded!...

Upgrade complete.

The effects have changed as follows:

Place it in your Item Column.

Your Item Column slots +1;

Your Secret Art Column slots +1;

You can designate it as a wild card for any affix (up to 3 affixes/repeated)

Three entries? Duplicates allowed? Doesn't this make me invincible? Roger rubbed his eyes repeatedly.

I'm sure I didn't see it wrong! That little Cindy is just that overpowered!

A feeling of joy welled up in my heart.

Roger, however, did not show the slightest hint of a smile—

Because he has become numb.

The art style changed too quickly.

He didn't even have a chance to properly experience the cruelty of the Black Crystal World.

Suddenly they told him it had switched to EASY mode.

There was a sense of loss and disappointment.

However, this feeling did not last long.

Felton over there had finished his whispered conversation with Sophie.

The brother and sister consulted with Roger.

Felton suggested looking for an opportunity towards the iron gate.

Taking this opportunity.

Roger then brazenly pulled out a "Heartwarming Torch" right under their noses! The intense heat was transferred to the three of them.

Felton and Sophie were both slightly taken aback.

At present.

Roger held a torch.

It rammed violently into Felton:

"We don't need to worry about the heat for now. I have some survivors here, which should be enough to get through the initial difficulties..."

"I am interested in joining forces with you."

"But before that, I hope to confirm some things from you—especially from you."

Felton remained silent for a moment.

In the end, they gave in to the bright torchlight.

He nudged Roger:

"Go ahead and ask."

I will try my best to answer.

Roger asked solemnly, "What is the real purpose behind your high-profile actions in Ice Dragon Canyon?"

"Hunting?"

Felton responded sullenly:

"You already know about hunting, why ask any more questions?"

Roger said seriously:

"I want to know more, more comprehensively..."

This makes it easier for me to make inferences and draw conclusions.

I like to hear information from multiple sources.

Instead of just listening to what others say...

Let's be honest.

Many people have told me this.

You Celestial Gods Race are a bunch of lunatics.

They all hold a significant place in my heart.

But I still want to hear what you have to say.

Felton remained silent for a long time.

Then it gently bumped into Roger's front.

Accompanying this action.

Lines of text appeared simultaneously in Roger's vision and perception.

On the data panel.

Felton: Our true purpose has always been the same.

That is how we achieve our redemption.

In order to achieve this goal.

We must wipe out all the Starry Sky God Race.

This is beyond doubt.

I acknowledge that some sacrifices may be made in this process.

But believe me.

If there is a better way.

The Celestial Gods Race had already anticipated this.

If sacrificing one planet can protect Nine Great Planets.

At least morally, we haven't lost too badly.

Isn't that so?...

I know there are many misunderstandings about the Celestial Gods Race from the outside world.

Some misunderstandings stem from stereotypes.

Some of these are deliberate attempts to smear China.

To be honest.

I'm too lazy to explain all that.

But Sophie told me that you are trustworthy to a certain extent.

And I've also happened to have heard of your name—

A demon slayer, huh?

Logically speaking, someone with your reputation wouldn't do something so underhanded.

Sophie is still a little girl! A misunderstanding?

Although I didn't see you reach out your hand.

But I know you did it! Damn it, the more I think about it, the angrier I get, and I really want to settle the score with you! (The confrontation suddenly intensifies)...

Someone must have told you that my tribe came here because it lost an internal conflict.

That's a huge joke!

Our ancestors came to Kuinan voluntarily to guard the anchor of the starry sky!

The cause of this matter can be traced back to the initial Rift of the Heavens War.

In a crucial battle.

My tribe made a terrible mistake.

This mistake led to very serious consequences— the Starry Sky God Race, who could have been completely wiped out, were instead sealed away with endless troubles.

To make up for this mistake.

For self-redemption.

My tribe has just migrated here.

Since countless eras ago.

The warriors of the tribe always remember our mission.

We have come to annihilate the Starry Sky God Race!

Before these interstellar locusts die out.

The soul of every warrior in the tribe cannot find peace.

This is our destiny.

This is the truth!

Why are you so determined to exterminate the Starry Sky God Race? Don't you have eyes?

Can't you see how deformed those locusts have become? Their return would be a disaster!

Because they themselves are the source of disaster!

You might not know this.

These locusts have reached a consensus with the source of the anomaly deep within the stars! The so-called secret method.

It's nothing more than a short-sighted approach.

It was a vicious scheme devised by the Three Main Gods to bow down to the source of the anomaly!

If they arrive successfully.

The source of distortion deep within the starry sky will officially pollute the interior of the Nine Great Planets!

That would be a super catastrophe that would affect the entire universe!

Now.

Do you understand?

Silently discerning the truth or falsehood of the information Felton presented.

Roger did not answer directly.

He simply suggested:

"We can talk as we walk."

"Do as you say."

"Walk towards the iron gate..."

But he hadn't finished speaking.

Two enormous birds suddenly swooped down from the sky!

The two birds moved with astonishing speed.

In the blink of an eye.

They picked up Sophie and Felton like they were carrying tiny insects! Then one went to the left and the other to the right.

They flew away! Whoosh! The black wind howled.

Beneath the iron beak of this strange bird.

The Celestial Gods Race siblings were carried away without any resistance! And so, in front of the enormous iron gate...

Roger was left all alone.

The next second.

Suddenly, a line of words appeared in his field of vision.

"Hint: An unknown strange bird has kidnapped Sophie and Felton. Please choose one of them to rescue them!"

Sophie (to the left)

Felton (to the right)

"Note: As long as you successfully rescue one person, you can safely take him/her away from the Black Crystal World..."
