Having finally caught a high-ranking member of Titan Building, and specifically a high-ranking member of the Primordial Dormitory, Xu Lang naturally wouldn't let him go or kill him so easily.

Within the Mist Zone, the Dormitory Building's interference permissions become very weak, and with Freddy's enhanced hallucination effects, forget about seeing any panel notifications or anything like that.

Freddy's task is arduous; he must win over Blue Sea Tideborn's loyalty to Xu Lang.

Only in this way can Blue Sea Tideborn escape the detection of Titan Building and Primordial Titan when he returns to Titan Building, because this does not involve any Transcendent factors, and all changes only occur at the psychological level!

Since there's Freddy, a Strange Tale skilled at brainwashing, Xu Lang has no reason not to use him.

From the Xu Lang set his sights on Blue Sea Tideborn, Blue Sea Tideborn's fate was basically sealed. Unless he had Xu Lang's experience of having nightmares and truly escaped Freddy's dream, his ultimate path would be infinitely similar to this moment.

Blue Sea Tideborn very smart, but he got two things wrong.

First, in dreams, what he believes won't become reality, but Freddy's will.

Second, Freddy was the only true creator of that dream at the time, so it was correct for Freddy to kill himself, but he did far from enough. It is absolutely impossible for an omniscient and omnipotent god to trip and kill himself.

Third, the forbidden-level Strange Tale are different from the others that the Titan Building intelligence department has learned about. They possess unsolvable abilities and have three characteristics: environmental adaptation, self-evolution, and immortality. Skin Marries Bone and Ghost Infant are also forbidden-level Strange Tale, but they have not yet fully evolved, so they can be exploited. However, they are still unsolvable. As long as the killing rules are triggered, no one can escape. The ghost realm is a slaughterhouse.

Titan Building.

Inside the core floor ruled by the Primordial Titan, the alloy steel plates beneath his feet made Blue Sea Tideborn somewhat dazed, while the companions rushing up at him felt both familiar and... strange.

There's no going back.

Everything is irreversible.

The shouts of his companions sounded as if they were coming from a very distant place.

"Old Bi, where is he?"

"Old Bi, why did you come back by yourself first?"

"I give up! You should at least have watched Wang Yi and the others come over!"

"Look, someone's coming!"

"..."

Not long after the Blue Sea Tideborn appeared, Wang Yi and his group also appeared.

Twenty minutes later, a roar erupted from Primordial Dormitory, and only one of the seven Star Constellation Warriors remained alive.

These people are not the real people, but rather Strange Tale; only Wang Yi remains.

Placing a real Wang Yi here is to use him as a mooring point to attract other Star Constellation Warriors. With Blue Sea Tideborn as an undercover agent, this plan has potential.

Furthermore, this person is too intelligent; it's not suitable for him to stay at the Mad King Building.

Using Freddy's dream to brainwash a Star Warrior is also inappropriate, because if things don't go smoothly, the Astral Fate Pattern will disintegrate on its own and actively abandon the host. Otherwise, Xu Lang could have brainwashed him as well.

Fundamentally, Great Yin Empress, Pei Yizhi, and others are no longer human, but rather Transcendent beings with Transcendent origins.

"We were found out after all."

Inside the ancient castle in the Black Town, Xu Lang frowned inwardly.

It would be great if we could take this opportunity to send the Faceless Ones into the Titan Building. The Titan Building is too high-level, and the players' privileges are also very high. The Faceless Ones can hide from ordinary players, but the Primordial Titan will notice him at a glance, which is a bit of a pity.

It's too early to take action against Titan Building, but Xu Lang has been meddling in things all along, with his brainwashing of Blue Sea Tideborn being the most successful instance.

Shaking his head, Xu Lang ignored that area and instead looked at the Ghost Story Television in front of him.

Qin Chuan and his group had already arrived in Black Town and were staying with other Star Constellation Warriors. These individuals were from the Northern Dipper Principal Star and the Southern Dipper Principal Star, and their appearance caused a great uproar.

That inexplicable sense of unity has become even stronger.

"Freddy, you said if they team up, they might break through Black Town?" Xu Lang asked, stroking his chin as he stared at the television screen.

Freddy stood beside him; he was the only one in the taboo Strange Tale who knew his true identity.

"Of course not. I could kill these people with a flick of my wrist!" Freddy chuckled, his face contorted with humility, looking like a large rat.

"Don't underestimate them. They are fundamentally different; they are beings on par with the supernatural Strange Tale," Xu Lang said, shaking his head.

These past few days, he had been keeping a close eye on these Star Constellation Warriors, which confirmed one thing for him: the Star Constellation Warriors were indeed the NPCs' trump card.

Furthermore, he speculated that the Emperor Ziwei possessed at least the strength to contend with, or even surpass, the Demon Emperor Lü Qing.

He has currently discarded all main and side quests, leaving only two core quests.

First, maintain the stability of the Mad King Building and prevent any major chaos.

Second, find the reincarnation of the Ziwei Star and plunder it!

The person with the Purple Tenuity Star Fate Pattern is most likely inside the Titan Building, but their exact location is unknown and cannot be pinpointed.

The people who have gathered the most complete information about Titan Building are undoubtedly the twelve Titans!

The only solution now is to lure them out so that Nightmare Eye can focus on them. This process shouldn't take long.

Titan Building, seventh floor, conference room.

When the Blue Sea Tideborn, the Steel Titan was already there, sitting opposite the head of the long table, his metal fingers crossed on the table, the red light in the optical lens slowly flickering.

On the table in front of the Steel Titan lay an intelligence briefing, next to a cup of untouched black coffee, a thin film of oil already formed on the surface.

"Sit." The Steel Titan raised his chin and gestured to the chair opposite him.

Blue Sea Tideborn pulled out a chair and sat down.

The conference hall was very large, with a total of 3 main seats, each corresponding to a Titan, and each Titan's emblem was engraved on the table.

He wasn't sitting in a formal seat; the head seat at the far end of the long table was empty—the seat of the Primordial Titan, which was always vacant.

The other Titan Dormitory were also paying attention to the matter of the Star Warriors and the NPCs in the Mist Zone, and everyone knew about Blue Sea Tideborn's defeat this time.

Not only did the duck that was about to be eaten fly away, but they also brought the Strange Tale home.

That's incredibly stupid.

"Tell me what happened. I need to verify your operation." The Steel Titan didn't exchange pleasantries; its optical lens was pointed directly at Blue Sea Tideborn's face.

Blue Sea Tideborn leaned back in his chair, not speaking immediately.

Xu Lang tasked him with gathering intelligence on the surrounding area and information about the Star Constellation Warriors.

There might be some information here at Steel Titan that Xu Lang needs to know.

"I met Freddy in the Mist Zone. It's a truly terrifying top-tier Strange Tale," Blue Sea Tideborn began. "He can control dreams. In dreams, he's omniscient and omnipotent, almost invincible. Even if you kill him, the dream continues!"

The hydraulic rod of the Steel Titan clicked. "Continue the dream?"

Blue Sea Tideborn nodded:

"After I killed him, the dream didn't dissipate, the darkness didn't recede, and I'm still trapped inside. This dream doesn't have just one layer; Wang Yi and the others are on another layer, and I'm on this one."

"You are in reality."

He paused noticeably at this point.

Those who have never experienced a nightmare have no idea how terrifying it can be.

The Steel Titan was silent for a moment, then the red light in its optical lens flashed. "Where is Freddy now? Is he still in your dream?"

"I don't know," Blue Sea Tideborn said frankly. "He might already be inside Titan Building, or he might be in someone's mind. Xu Lang has too many tricks up his sleeve; he might have been setting things up inside Titan Building for a long time. I was clearly ambushed when I went there this time."

The Steel Titan's metal fingers tapped lightly on the table; the sound was soft, but exceptionally clear in the empty conference hall.

"What are you implying?" he asked in a deep voice.

Blue Sea Tideborn greeted the pair of optical lenses and smiled:

I didn't imply anything.

"I'm just telling you what I heard."

"One more thing, Freddy is looking for someone inside Titan Building!"

"In my dream, he showed me Wang Yi and the others' corpses, the route to Black Town, and a lot of information, but all of this information had been filtered by him!"

"He was guiding me, making me believe that someone was the mole, or that a certain place was the breakthrough point. I stayed in his dream for too long, and I couldn't distinguish between what was real and what was fake!"

The hydraulic lever of the Steel Titan clicked again, surprising me.

It seems that Blue Sea Tideborn has indeed encountered a lot, which has piqued his interest.

Blue Sea Tideborn; is he trying to evade responsibility by saying these things? But given his position, he doesn't need to say such things.

He stood up, walked to the tactical board on the side of the conference room, and turned on the holographic projector.

The three-dimensional structure of Titan Building unfolded in the air, with each floor marked with defensive nodes and spiritual energy fluctuation monitoring points.

"After you returned, I retrieved the detection data for all Legion personnel within visual range." The Steel Titan pointed to the red area surrounding the structural diagram with its metal finger. "A few anomalies were indeed found, but after investigation, they were all found to be normal."

After being stunned by the massive Demon Army's attack, the Steel Titan retracted more of its computing power inward.

Because Titan Building is organizing a counterattack.

That's right, it's a counterattack!

If you sit and wait to die, it becomes an absolute battle of offense and defense, with back and forth. Although you may lose some things, you may also obtain important intelligence, which could determine the outcome of the game.

He zoomed in on the structural diagram; the red area shrank, concentrating on the forty-fourth layer.

After demonstrating its control over the Titan Building, the Steel Titan turned off the holographic projection and walked back to the table to sit down.

He picked up the cup of black coffee and took a sip, breaking up the oil film on the surface and revealing the dark brown liquid underneath.

"Whether there's a mole in Titan Building, I don't know, but there's one thing I can tell you." Steel Titan was also extremely nervous, because if he remembered correctly, it was highly likely, perhaps, possibly, that he was the one who let Xu Lang in.

After inviting Xu Lang, he never saw Xu Lang again, which made him very uneasy.

the fat is in the fire!

Thankfully, no one came to investigate him, otherwise, things could have really gotten into trouble!

"What's up?"

"A letter has arrived from Mad King Building." Steel Titan pulled a sheet of paper from under the intelligence briefing and pushed it in front of Blue Sea Tideborn: "Received this morning, highest level of encryption, directly copied to the Titan Council."

Blue Sea Tideborn picked up the paper.

"To the Titans of Titan Building: Congratulations on your recent great victory. However, the turmoil in the Mist Zone and the devastation it has caused are deeply troubling. Mad King Building and Demon King Castle cordially invite the Steel Titan to Black Town in three days to share a drink and pay respects to the departed, as a gesture of goodwill. If you have any concerns, you may bring your guards. Mad King Building, Xu Lang."

He's so bookish; I wonder what Xu Lang is up to.

Blue Sea Tideborn put down the paper, looked up at the Steel Titan, and asked, "Are you going?"

"Of course we'll go!" The red light from the Steel Titan's optical lens froze, without flickering.

"Xu Lang is no ordinary man. You bosses shouldn't be foolish and get wiped out in one fell swoop!"

"I'm not going to my death." The hydraulic lever of the Steel Titan clicked, carrying a chilling smile, "I'm going to confirm something."

The Steel Titan stood up, walked to the door of the conference hall, and pressed its metal fingers against the door frame.

The doors slowly closed, turning the conference hall into a closed space.

He turned around, and the red light from the optical lens dimmed, as if he were speaking only to Blue Sea Tideborn:

"Star Warrior!"

"Xu Lang is paying too much attention to the Star Constellation Warriors. I'm going to ask him some questions this time!"

"Furthermore, without stabilizing Xu Lang's side, our subsequent battles cannot proceed normally!"

"You should know how insane this game is; the Dormitory Survival Game gave us warnings from the very beginning..."

"Mad King Building deserves to die! It's all because of their ascension anomalies, otherwise Overlord- level creature wouldn't have come!"

"The three major war zones have also been affected, and even the Overlord Tower has arrived!"

"Damn it, it's all Xu Lang's fault!"

"I'm going to kill him this time!"

Steel Titan spoke with extreme indignation, but Blue Sea Tideborn felt something was off, as if Steel Titan was faking it.

He shook his head, subconsciously ignoring the strange thought.

If I'm an undercover agent, surely the Steel Titan can't be an undercover agent too, right?

Xu Lang really has this kind of ability, then Titan Building might as well be called the Second Mad King Building.

"Are you going alone? What about the other Titans?" Blue Sea Tideborn asked.

"Come with me." The Steel Titan walked back to the table, its optical lens aimed at him. "You're the only one in the Titan Building who has actually fought against the Strange Tale, and that's Xu Lang's most important strength. With you here, we won't be so passive. I'll apply to the Primordial Titan, and I believe Old Yuan will agree!"

Perhaps this is an opportunity.

They took down a Titan in one fell swoop...

Blue Sea Tideborn was silent for a few seconds before speaking, "I can go, but on one condition."

"Explain."

I need access to the Meditation room on the forty-fourth floor.

The optical lens of the Steel Titan suddenly glowed red, like two red-hot iron plates.

He stared at the Blue Sea Tideborn for a long time, his metal fingers slowly tightening on the table, the armor plates at his knuckles making a soft rubbing sound.

What do you need the Meditation room access for?

That was his territory, extremely important. It could not only accelerate cultivation, but also allow one to see things beyond dimensions through Meditation. It was generally only used by the core members of the Steel Legion.

"This is my business... I won't deal with Mad King Building again without prior planning." Blue Sea Tideborn's voice became low, as if he still had lingering fears.

With the help of the Meditation room, he might be able to find the information Xu Lang wants.

Mad King Building, Loyalty!
