The copy has 0 error tolerance, and the last words on the ground are all wrong for me.

Chapter 269 Enlightenment
Jian Xing and others have been guarding the entrance of the research station, looking out at Wu Chang, hoping to see something.

But the darkness of the Night Island is different from ordinary darkness. It not only swallows up the light, but also greatly limits the perception of the people on the island.

A Sword Star expert can only see up to ten meters away. Even with the skill of enhancing senses, he can only see up to thirty meters. Any further than that is useless.

This made them helpless and anxious, always paying attention to Wu Chang's signals.

Seven minutes passed in a flash and everyone began to feel impatient. Even Director Gao, who entered the darkness at full strength, could only hold out for this time at most.

Just as Director Gao was about to go out to look for Wu Chang, several people saw Wu Chang walking towards the research station at the edge of their vision.

They originally wanted to ask Wu Chang how he was doing and whether he was injured, but when they saw Fujita Hiroyuki being dragged behind Wu Chang, they kept their questions to themselves.

The results are clear at a glance.

When Wu Chang entered the room, Director Gao looked at Fujita Hiroyuki on the ground in surprise and asked, "What is this?"

Wu Chang said: "He is the monster that has been hiding in the dark. Judging from his appearance, he should be a member of the expedition team after the mutation. He was very vigilant and wanted to escape after realizing that he had been tricked. I had no choice but to stop him."

Lei Huo squatted on the ground, looking through Fujita Hiroyuki's body, and asked, "Spiritual energy?"

Wu Chang nodded and said, "Yes, its spirit was disturbed by the things in the ruins and was already riddled with holes. I used ordinary mental shocks to directly defeat it."

Jianxing nodded to the few people, proving that what Wu Chang said was true. Jianxing did not do this deliberately to test Wu Chang's lie, but the few people were worried that the monster would hijack or possess Wu Chang, and wanted to take the opportunity to blend in with them.

If they find anything abnormal, they can subdue the monster in time and force out Wu Chang's whereabouts.

Jianxing proved that Wu Chang was telling the truth. In theory, they should be happy, but in reality, the conclusion that it was the truth made them feel confused.

After all, Night Island is an A-level copy that is on the verge of getting out of control. No matter how weak it is, the monsters inside should not be killed so easily.

Wu Chang's growth rate exceeded their expectations. If they had not witnessed Wu Chang's growth, but heard about it from forums or other people, they would have thought it was a new joke from some idiot.

Is he really a genius?

Although he can't compare to the monster-like super rookie Heping, nor can he compare to the second-rate or maybe even several-rate Jianxing, but in the management bureau, this speed of improvement is worthy of being called a genius.

Wu Chang pretended not to notice the increasingly strange looks from Director Gao and the others. He took out the key to the underwater ruins and said:

"Although I accidentally killed this monster, luckily, I found this from him."

He held up the key and asked Johnson and Bae Taehyung who came out after hearing the noise, "Is this the key to the underwater ruins?"

"That's it!" Johnson answered loudly, turned around and patted Bae Taehyung on the shoulder, and whispered, "Russian pickles are also quite delicious. You can try it."

Wu Chang ignored Pei Taiheng, who looked as if he had lost all hope in life, and turned to everyone and said:

"We now have two night lights. We have to leave one behind just in case. Only one person can go into the water with me. Does anyone want to see the mysterious underwater ruins?"

After a brief discussion, Director Gao and others finally chose Jian Xing and Wu Chang to go with them.

Ten minutes later, with the help of Bae Tae-hyung and Johnson, Jianxing changed into a diving suit, holding a night light in his hand, and came to the underground pool.

Director Gao looked at the two of them and said, "Be careful."

Wu Chang smiled and said, "Of course, I am a casual player."

Watching Wu Chang and Jian Xing jump into the water, Director Gao standing on the shore said, "Do you think they can succeed?"

Lei Huo said firmly: "Of course."

Director Gao was surprised and asked, "You have so much confidence in them?"

Leihuo said: "I heard that before he joined the Administration, he could safely pass through multiple dungeons with just one active skill and one passive skill, and he could also rely on his ability to explore the plot to obtain the transformation into a marine clan in the quiet town."

"He might have been born to clear dungeons. His method is unconventional and bold, but extremely efficient. When it comes to clearing dungeons, I trust him more than I do myself."

Director Gao looked at the water and said after a moment of silence, "I think so too. Whether it was the erosion instance a while ago or right now, his speed in clearing instances is incredibly fast."

"If he can calm down and not only focus on clearing levels, but also take into account the completion of dungeons like that 'Heping', then his future will definitely be limitless."

Lei Huo noticed what Director Gao was thinking and said, "What do you want to say?"

Director Gao sighed and said, "This world dungeon is obviously different from the previous ones. Haven't you heard the rumor recently? As long as a level 30 player completes this world dungeon alive, there is a high probability that he will enter the second layer of the abyss."

"The bureau sent me a form last night and asked me to fill in the form as the director's agent, stating that the rumor was probably true."

Leihuo curled his lips and said, "Don't test me, it's really true."

Director Gao corrected him: "I'm not testing you, I'm asking for your confirmation."

"Anyway, whether we live or die, I'm afraid we have to change our location. Wanghai City can't be left without someone watching over it, so I have to find someone I can rely on."

Leihuo asked, "Do you want to choose him?"

Director Gao said: "Let's wait and see. I hope he can also enter the world dungeon, gain more benefits, and be able to hold on to this position."

Underwater, as the key was inserted, the iron gate under the water opened. Wu Chang and Jian Xing passed through the iron gate and dived towards the ruins in the depths.

For Jianxing, being underwater made him feel more uncomfortable than being on Night Island.

Since he had no skills to improve his water ability, he felt a strong sense of sluggishness in the sea, as if his body was out of his control.

The darkness of the deep sea is even more extreme than that of the Night Island. Relying on the night lights and headlights, he can only see the vision in front of him, just like he can only see the small fan-shaped NPC in the game.

He was completely unable to perceive anything outside the light of the headlights and night running lights.

He was unable to see his surroundings clearly, and was unable to control himself. Coupled with the tremendous sense of oppression coming from all directions, he always had an illusion that what was waiting for him below was not a ruin, but the open mouth of some giant marine creature.

It almost caused him to suffer from thalassophobia.

Just when he was nervous, his sword heart moved slightly and he noticed something strange in the water waves, as if something was swimming towards them.

He turned his head in the direction where the waves came from, and his headlamp emitted a cone-shaped light, with nothing in the light.

The next moment, water waves came from behind him again.

He turned on the light again, and this time he could vaguely see a black shadow flashing by.

The shadow was huge and extremely fast. The moment Jian Xing noticed it, his mind was stretched to the limit. He said to Wu Chang through the headset:
"Be careful, there are monsters in the water!"

After he finished speaking, he remembered that Wu Chang was not wearing a diving suit and his headphones had been put into his personal space, so his voice could not be heard.

They were unable to communicate, and at this moment he was the only one who discovered the monster in the sea.

Jian Xing held the flying sword tightly. Due to the obstruction of the unknown force underwater, his flying sword could not be used. He could only rely on holding the flying sword close to his body to perform sword techniques.

This meant that he could not take the initiative to attack, and had to wait for something in the water to attack him before he had a chance to fight back.

A ripple came from the side, and Jian Xing turned around suddenly. This time he not only saw a black shadow, but also thick tentacles. The tip of each tentacle was four or five meters long.

He felt threatened from the tentacles. The monster was very strong. It was definitely not as fragile as the monster Wu Chang encountered, which would break into pieces at the slightest touch.

Compared to the previous two times, the distance of the ripples this time was closer. That thing was testing them and gradually approaching. Can they win?
Just when he was getting nervous, he noticed the abnormal fluctuation again. The fluctuation came from above his head and was very close.

He looked up, but there was nothing above him.

The next moment, alarm bells rang in his mind, and a powerful sense of death crisis came from below.

Oops, I fell into a trap!

The monster deliberately created water waves to lure him, making him develop the habit of relying on the water waves to determine its position. Then it took advantage of his habit to divert his attention and launch a sneak attack on him when he missed a chance.

He looked down and saw a huge mass of slime with tentacles coming within five meters of him. It was extremely fast and silent, and was about to swallow him up.

The huge ball of slime was like an electric car hit from the side by a speeding truck, and its body "flew" out uncontrollably. Jian Xing controlled the headlights to shine in the direction where the huge ball of slime flew away, wanting to see clearly what took it away.

When he saw a creature that was over a hundred meters long, thick and long, like a dragon, his brain went blank temporarily.

What it is!
Not far from the sword star, Wu Chang, who had transformed into a giant python at the bottom of the abyss, was wrapping his body around the slime tentacle monster and constantly tightening his body.

Before he went into the water, he had been eyeing the slime tentacle monster, or to be more precise, the high priest.

"Talent Skill: Abyss"

"Skill Description: Release energy, transform the surrounding air or water into the Deep Water Devour, and build your own territory - the Abyss. Prey that enters the Abyss will unknowingly become food for the giant python at the bottom of the abyss."

The reason why Jian Xing felt that he could not sense anything other than the light was not only because there was a faint divinity in this area of ​​water, but also because there was a layer of deep sea realm.

The influence of the abyss even exceeds the original power of this area of ​​water.

Wu Chang was originally worried that his power would be too conspicuous and scare away the high priest. Unexpectedly, the monsterized high priest was so eager for something rich in energy that he couldn't help himself when he saw the bait and stepped straight into the trap he had set.

In the abyss, the high priest's body was tainted by the bite of deep water and he was completely unable to resist.

Every time Wu Chang contracted his body, his scales acted like saw blades, sawing off large pieces of the mucus.

In less than a minute, he crushed the high priest's body and took out the white conch from his body.

Wu Chang looked at the Broken High Priest and shook his head slightly. He was different from other players. The ocean was his home ground.

After getting rid of the high priest, there were no more obstacles on the rest of the journey and the two of them easily dived into the ruins.

Passing through the gate of the Temple of Death and entering the ruins, they seemed to have entered another world.

Not a drop of sea water from outside flowed into the ruins, as if this place was in an independent space.

Entering the temple, Jian Xing took off the fully enclosed diving helmet on his head, gasped for breath, and waited for his body to recover. He asked, "How did you do it just now?"

Wu Chang shrugged and said, "That's my ocean family transformation, the sea serpent."

Jian Xing looked at Wu Chang with the expression of the old man on the subway phone, "You call that thing a sea snake? Are you bullying me because I have never seen a sea snake?"

Wu Chang added: "Have you seen Shu X Baby? My previous transformation into a marine family member was a juvenile form, and now it has just become a complete form. If you like, you can call it a sea python."

Jianxing rubbed his eyebrows. He began to doubt Jianxin's ability to distinguish truth from falsehood. Why did Wu Chang's words sound so outrageous, but so real to his ears?

There must be something wrong between him and Wu Chang. If both of them are fine, then there is something wrong with the world!

Wu Chang didn't give Jianxing too much time. With Jianxin's skills, Jianxing would be able to convince himself anyway.

He greeted Jian Xing, then picked up the white conch and walked quickly into the ruins.

Since he had read The Grudge by Hiroyuki Fujita, he was very familiar with the structure of the ruins. At first he pretended to identify the two murals, but later he simply followed his inspiration and happened to come to the closed secret room.

Anyway, what he said was true, and Jianxing would convince himself.

There is a groove on the door of the secret room, into which a white conch is inserted. The door sinks into the ground, revealing the secret room behind it.

There was a black stone slab stored in the secret room, but unlike what Wu Chang had imagined, the prophetic stone slab that recorded the method to avoid the doomsday disaster had been broken.

The moment the broken stone slab appeared, the entire Night Island area shattered along with it. However, after the shattering, it did not bring about the end of the copy, but rather a standstill in time.

From the natives of the dungeon such as Johnson and Bae Tae-hyung to players such as Jian Xing and Director Gao, all of them stood still, as if time had stopped at this moment.

Except Wu Chang.

Wu Chang opened the portable space, and the all-knowing crystal with a faint glow flew out of it.

It hovered in front of the slate, and the prophetic slate completely turned into powder and merged into the omniscient crystal.

The prophecy slate is what the Omniscient Crystal desires.

As the prophecy slate merged into his body, the omniscient crystal began to emit a faint light and became more spiritual.

"Item Name: Omniscient Crystal"

"Item type: unknown"

"Item level: unknown"

"Item Effect: Revelation"

"Skill Description: The All-Knowing Crystal will randomly provide you with relevant revelations based on the answer you desire."

The omniscient crystal flashed twice and flew back to Wu Chang's hands from above the stone slab.

Wu Chang looked at the frozen world around him and asked, "Did you do this?"

Perhaps because it absorbed what it needed, the Omniscient Crystal did not ask to complete the soul binding procedure, but answered Wu Chang's question.

"No, what caused all this was the debris left after the plane was shattered."

Looking at the wreckage after the plane was shattered, Wu Chang thought of the broken prophecy tablet. "You mean, the original Shivering Ice Plane has been shattered because of the world's will?"

All-Knowing Crystal: "Yes."

Wu Chang's eyes became strange. Could it be that the scene he saw through Fujita Hiroyuki's resentment was not an illusion, but something that actually happened?

If so, then what is the Night Island where they are now?
Sensing the question in Wu Chang's mind, the All-Knowing Crystal replied:

"This area is only temporarily separated and is not truly independent. When the original plane is broken, the sub-plane will also be broken, leaving only a part of the projection."

"Everything you experience is just a projection of what happened in the past."

Wu Chang asked, "But according to the rules of the Abyss Game, only the real copy will become an eroded copy. Can the projected copy also erode reality?"

Omniscient Crystal: "If certain conditions are met, this special projection copy can also be corroded into reality."

Wu Chang asked: "What are the conditions?"

All-Knowing Crystal: "The real world you live in has been overly eroded and is being integrated into the Abyss Game."
