622. The Breach

After the former Strange Beast Dungeon was destroyed, its subsidiary space did not collapse along with the dungeon. Instead, after the dungeon's space caved in, it embedded itself directly into the main world.

The Divine Tree had special means of knowing that there was a subsidiary space here, and had handed its coordinates and transfer method to Linden as hush money.

But whether it knew the subsidiary space's current exact state was another matter.

Over the course of more than a hundred years, this subsidiary space had never stopped merging with the body of the world.

The initial point of contact, tiny as the tip of a needle, had expanded under the effects of time into a vast area of intermingling.

If no one interfered, then at the Beast Bone Field's original excavation pace, it would dig into the intermingled area within a few years. When that happened, the things inside the subsidiary space would inevitably spark a new wave of excavation, restoring the early prosperity of this gradually quieting Excavation Site.

And now, the transfer ritual had been activated.
