"Star Dormitory... I'll check it out first. The Stars Legion has three divination teams; hopefully, they won't divine anything about my upcoming operation."

The consciousness of the Blue Sea Tideborn paused at a certain Meditation point, without immediately unfolding.

This node is different from the others; its light is dimmer and colder, like a star about to go out.

He hesitated for a moment, then immersed his consciousness into the node.

The nodes unfolded, revealing a world he had never seen before.

Before me lies a vast and majestic planet, suspended in pure blackness, as if the blackness has shut out all light.

In the very center of this darkness, this vast and majestic planet slowly rotates, radiating a boundless silver light, like countless galaxies.

This planet is translucent, with countless points of light moving inside, each of which is a star.

The Star Titan's bed is located at the very center of the planet, a cloud of light formed from starlight, within which a human-shaped silhouette can be vaguely seen.

That's the Star Titan!

The Star Titan are sleeping!

As powerful figures, the Titans' beds are naturally not ordinary; they generally have the effect of accelerating energy recovery, and some special ones can even enhance their strength.

Upon seeing that humanoid silhouette, Blue Sea Tideborn felt his breath catch in his throat; he dared not touch it, or even look at it for long.

As the lieutenant of the Primordial Titan, he was all too familiar with the powers these Titans possessed.

Carefully shifting his Meditation focus, Blue Sea Tideborn began specifically searching for information nodes related to NPCs.

Every Titan Dormitory has some NPCs hidden inside, and the Star Dormitory is no exception. The NPCs inside are divided into several factions. Blue Sea Tideborn wandered around for a while but found nothing.

Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly thought of the attribute matching between "Star Titan" and "Star Warrior" and felt very unwilling.

Immediately, gritting his teeth, he ventured deeper into the Star Dormitory.

This place is like a starry sky, and every special facility seems to have thousands of tentacles, capable of capturing him, who is watching from afar.

Furthermore, there are dedicated personnel to guard and maintain the facilities.

"Like a mouse licking a cat's lip, you're asking for it!"

Blue Sea Tideborn felt like a mouse trapped in a cat's den, too afraid to move.

I wish I hadn't come.

As the feeling of being captured lessened, he immediately withdrew his mental energy and stopped Meditation on the scene.

Just before he was about to leave, he saw an extremely peculiar point.

That node was emitting purple light, and countless light threads were moving around it, as if it were entangled with countless causes and effects!

"Could that be the person Xu Lang is looking for? And that information node is definitely a person, but it's too far away. I'm not sure if it's an NPC or a player!"

Inside the Meditation room, Blue Sea Tideborn lingering fear and doubt.

He wouldn't dare explore the Star Dormitory again, but this information was indeed very valuable and could be passed on to Xu Lang later.

Next, he hurried on to investigate the other dormitories.

Having finally made it to the Meditation room, he naturally wanted to thoroughly investigate his own family's background.

The dormitory of the Zhu Rong Titan is a lava cave with a floor of cooled black basalt and dark red magma flowing from the crevices.

A carbonized bearskin was laid on the throne in the hall, and the walls were covered with hammers, each blackened by lava and with a gleaming head, as if they were enchanted.

Deeper into the hall stood enormous furnaces, their chambers burning with intense white flames, looking quite extraordinary.

At this very moment, many players from the Zhu Rong Legion are standing by the furnace, forging weapons and armor.

The Zhu Rong Titan are highly skilled in forging, and the Legion has many master forgers. Moreover, the dormitory itself is a production dormitory, where the furnaces can smelt various materials collected from the Titan Building to forge weapons for the Legion.

At the deepest part of the hall, near the fire pit, there is a narrow passage that extends downwards, leading to a heat source deep underground.

Blue Sea Tideborn glanced at the heat source but didn't dare to click on the information node.

Time was running out, and he had to consider the limits of his mental endurance, so he only took a quick look around the shallower areas before heading back.

The Sea God Titan's dormitory is a semi-transparent deep-sea space with walls made of flowing water curtains in which schools of bioluminescent fish swim. The facilities include many corals and marine-themed items.

In the center of the dormitory is a coral reef, covered with a soft seaweed bed, and the air is filled with the smell of sea salt and algae.

The Sea God Dormitory is very special, with a king and a queen. The king's throne is a huge giant clam shell, and the queen's throne is a floating water sphere. Both thrones have extraordinary abilities. Blue Sea Tideborn wanted to explore, but he restrained himself.

A common feature of the Titan Dormitory is that each dormitory contains its own little world.

The Sea God Dormitory boasts abundant underwater resources, possessing multiple strategic capabilities including production, mining, and weapons manufacturing. In critical moments, it can also release the deep-sea water within the dormitory to flood the monster army.

Furthermore, among the deep-sea monsters, there are some with extremely terrifying strength. Blue Sea Tideborn is considered an elder of Titan Building and has witnessed them several times.

Finally, Blue Sea Tideborn's consciousness lingered for a moment above a trench, sensing terrifying auras emanating from below—these were slumbering sea beasts, incredibly powerful.

The Sea God Dormitory was even larger than the Magic Forest Dormitory. Even though Meditation could quickly traverse space, it still took a long time for the Blue Sea Tideborn.

Here, he still hadn't found any clues about the Ziwei Star, but he did discover two Star Warriors who had been secretly hidden away by the Sea God Titan. It seemed that this guy had also sensed something.

Next up is the Thunder Dormitory.

When Blue Sea Tideborn's consciousness sank into the node, the first thing he perceived was a buzzing sound that pierced his very bones.

The buzzing sound seemed to originate from the depths of the soul, pressing down on the spirit with throbbing pain.

Thunder inherently possesses the ability to suppress evil spirits, and spiritual entities can also be considered evil spirits.

What Blue Sea Tideborn didn't expect was that Thunder Dormitory was so powerful. After all, he was Meditation on Thunder Dormitory, not actually entering it. During this time, there were layers of intermediaries, which had already avoided most of the dangers.

The Thunder Titan's dormitory was a metallic space wreathed in electric arcs. The walls were made of conductive copper plates, the surfaces of which were covered with densely packed conductive runes. Each rune glowed, its light flickering as if someone inside was constantly flipping a switch.

The air was filled with the smell of static electricity—dry, pungent, and with a slightly acrid aftertaste of burning metal. He tried to move his consciousness forward a little, and with each inch he went, the "touch" on his body became a little more numb.

"This is outrageous! The Dormitory Currency is incredibly powerful!" Blue Sea Tideborn was extremely surprised.

In the Dormitory Survival Game, there are no useless settings in the dormitory. These static electricity points are not just for decoration, but constantly power the Thunder Dormitory, similar to the Fear Points in the Demon King Castle. This energy is also called Dormitory Currency by some players.

He regressed the Meditation world somewhat, first taking a cursory look at the Thunder Dormitory before deciding how to proceed.

In the center of the dormitory stands a throne made of bronze pillars.

Calling it a throne is a stretcher; it's more like a frozen thunderstorm. Nine bronze pillars rise from the ground, their shafts engraved with spiraling channels through which bright blue arcs of electricity flow. The tops of the pillars curve towards the center, converging into a dome-shaped frame. Within this frame lies a constantly churning thundercloud, within which lightning continuously generates, explodes, and dissipates. Each time a lightning bolt explodes, the bronze walls of the entire dormitory light up in sync, as if the whole space is breathing along with the thundercloud.

The throne was empty.

Thunder Titan is not here.

The Blue Sea Tideborn kept my consciousness at the edge of the thunderclouds, not getting too close.

He felt a soul-shaking pressure from the energy density stored in the thunderclouds, as if looking at it for even a moment would cause it to explode.

This was the most complete and powerful energy system Blue Sea Tideborn had ever seen in a dormitory, and he was momentarily captivated by it.

The conductive runes on the copper walls transformed the static current slowly released from the thunderclouds into fine energy pulses, which were then transmitted through pipes inside the walls to every corner of the dormitory.

A ring of copper was embedded in the ground around the throne, with a steady current flowing through it, resembling some kind of miniature electric grid.

Those electrical grids connect to the dormitory's lighting, temperature control, and security systems.

Blue Sea Tideborn noticed that there was a vertical copper pillar below the thundercloud, with a purple crystal more than ten meters in size suspended at the top of the pillar. The surface of the crystal was engraved with three cracks, and the electric arcs seeping out from the cracks were absorbed by the copper pillar and then evenly distributed to the nine supporting pillars.

The crystal is the core of this power supply system.

"What would happen if it shattered? Would the energy explode on the spot, or would it rush out of the dormitory door?"

Blue Sea Tideborn implicitly acknowledged that he was a member of the Mad King Building Mad King Building and would join in the future; this thought came to him subconsciously at that moment.

Next, Blue Sea Tideborn made a temporary decision.

Instead of searching for the Ziwei Star among the NPCs, he decided to thoroughly investigate Thunder Dormitory. He had a premonition that Thunder Dormitory would become the biggest obstacle in the future conquest of Titan Building from Mad King Building.

The Blue Sea Tideborn consciousness closer to the bronze wall.

Those conductive runes do not work independently; each rune is connected to an extremely thin copper wire at its end. The copper wire passes through the wall and extends into the distance along the internal structure of Titan Building.

His consciousness followed a copper wire, which traveled a long way inside the wall before merging into a thicker main pipe.

The main pipeline runs through the bottom of the entire Titan Building, like a thick blood vessel hidden in the foundation, and finally leads to the true core of Thunder Dormitory!

This is the main power grid of Thunder Dormitory. Here stands a purple crystal with a diameter of 100 meters, whose power can suffocate even the Blue Sea Tideborn!

"No wonder Thunder Dormitory can unleash a massive amount of lightning attacks every round. With that kind of energy reserve, they could easily discharge electricity for an entire round of the game!"

In the past, when playing the game, Thunder Dormitory would often release a large amount of current in a short period of time, forming an arc storm that covered a wide area. Its destructive power was among the top of all the dormitories' built-in attack capabilities.

"Could it be that Thunder Dormitory is a suicide bombing dorm?"

Suddenly, Blue Sea Tideborn thought of an extremely deadly possibility!

Among all the dormitories, there is a type called the "self-destructing dormitory," which is extremely rare and can even kill the BOSS.

If one day Thunder Dormitory is breached and the situation becomes irreversible, this purple crystal will explode... The indiscriminate electrical attack will cover the entire Safe Zone, and neither players nor monsters will be spared!

The thought of this scene made Blue Sea Tideborn's face turn dark!

He felt this intelligence was even more important than the so-called Ziwei Star!

"Secrets of this level are probably only known to the Titans!"

Thinking of this, Blue Sea Tideborn abruptly pulled his consciousness away from the power source and looked back at the thunderclouds above the throne.

The thundercloud was pulsating at a slow and regular rhythm, and Blue Sea Tideborn suddenly felt as if he had figured out the pulse of the Thunder Dormitory.

However, he was nearing his limit and quickly ended this round of Meditation.

Blade Titan's dormitory is a geometric space made of mirrored stainless steel, with smooth, mirror-like walls that reflect countless versions of himself.

In the center of the dormitory is a throne made of blades, with the blades facing upwards. Apart from the Blade Titan himself, no one would dare to sit on it.

The Blade Titan ' main hall is an armory. Apart from the turret side, the mirrors on the other three sides conceal numerous hidden compartments, each containing blades, short swords, and daggers.

These weapons were personally honed by the Blade Titan, and their blades gleamed with an extremely fine, cold light.

The information in Blade Dormitory was all too sharp; even though Blue Sea Tideborn deliberately avoided it, he still got cut and left before long, unable to find all the NPCs.

That leaves only the Primordial Dormitory, the Demon Dormitory, the Iron Dormitory, and the Skyreach Dormitory.

The Blue Sea Tideborn rises by starting with the Iron Dormitory, using the facilities of the Steel Legion's own people to probe the secrets of the central army camp, which is somewhat exciting.

The Steel Titan ' dormitory is an industrial space made up of gears and pipes. The walls are working mechanical structures with pistons moving back and forth and gears meshing. Energy can be allocated in the gears and pipes to drive the defensive walls and external turrets of the entire floor.

The Iron Dormitory is connected to the 44th floor, a very good location that occupies a very high position, allowing the Steel Legion to effectively utilize its strong long-range firepower.

Among the three Titans— Hundred Beasts, Forest, and Steel— Blue Sea Tideborn always felt that the Steel Titan was the most cunning. He believed there were many secrets hidden in the dormitory and was eager to find out more. However, considering the unresolved quest to find the Ziwei Star and the fact that the Meditation room itself belonged to the Steel Legion, he didn't dare linger. After quickly searching through the information nodes symbolizing NPCs, he left immediately.

My old Primordial Dormitory, Blue Sea Tideborn, was so familiar to me that I only spent less than a minute symbolically strolling around before giving up my Meditation.

Most of the NPCs in the Skyreach Dormitory are concentrated here. However, after thoroughly investigating, Blue Sea Tideborn discovered many special NPCs, but did not clearly identify who possessed the Purple Tenuity Star Fate Pattern. He only marked a few key figures.

As for the Demon Dormitory... Blue Sea Tideborn had no intention of investigating it; it was too dangerous.
