"However, the situation is different now than before. Everyone is going all out to rack up points in the back room, and the points are inflating rapidly."

"With everyone able to afford the 100 S-point revival privilege, whether or not the revival match is played is actually irrelevant."

"Ah."

Hiyori Shiina nodded in deep agreement:

"If we disregard the subsequent hidden changes to the difficulty by the main god, these two weeks alone, just farming points in the back room, would be enough for us to upgrade all our equipment to the maximum level, and still have a large number of extra points to revive everyone..."

"only......"

A hint of worry appeared between her brows:

"What I'm worried about is that when the final exams come around, the Black Ball will take the opportunity to raise the monster's strength cap to a level we've never seen before."

Su Wei responded helplessly:

"There's nothing we can do about it; it's an unavoidable paradox."

"Either stay in school obediently and cultivate step by step within the limited resources and scope; or do what we are doing now, boldly barging into the back room to rack up points and search for information to break the deadlock."

"But no matter which path you choose, most people naturally still hope to take control of their future and power."

"Including myself, no one is an exception."

Shiina Hiyori sighed, knowing that Su Wei was telling the truth, so she didn't dwell on this unsolvable problem.

She lowered her head and glanced around.

This floor is different from the classic backroom floors filled with yellow wallpaper and buzzing noises. It has a blue sky and towering buildings, and is more like a separate world that has not yet been destroyed by the backroom.

She casually placed her hand on the pages of the "Whispering Scriptures" and silently recited the question she had repeated countless times in her mind:

What's unusual about this world for us?

Are there any traces of the mysterious merchant here?

Are there any items or monsters that I should pay attention to?

If nothing unexpected happens.

As is customary.

The [Whispering Scroll] will list the types of monsters worth eliminating on the current floor and their scores after a few seconds, and at most mark the locations of two relatively intact wild items, so that they can pick them up.

After that, they will go to the next floor again.

But this time, something unexpected happened.

Watching the dense ink stains continuously appear on the pages of the book...

Even someone as naturally calm as Hiyori Shiina stared wide-eyed, a rare occurrence for him.

She rubbed her eyes, a rare occurrence for her, to make sure she wasn't seeing things, before abruptly turning to meet Su Wei's gaze. She took a deep breath and explained:

"Su Weijun... said in the 'Whispering Book' that people from the Heavenly Craftsmen' once came to this world!"

"Moreover, not long ago, Miss Oriana, the mysterious merchant, and Horikita, the senior student president, both came to this world!"

Su Wei's eyes lit up upon hearing this.

He immediately raised his wrist, turned on the black ball controller, and projected a three-dimensional image into the air.

After carefully examining the scattered red dots on the screen, he pondered for a moment and asked with some doubt:

"The monsters here... are quite large, but their assessment scores don't seem to be very high."

Shiina Hiyori lowered her head, looking at the history being continuously filled in on the pages of the book, and softly read aloud:

"The Whispering Book explains that...the Craftsman who descended upon this place was a robust, humanoid rock life form."

"His entire body is covered with a reddish-brown rocky shell, the surface of which is covered with protrusions, and he also has the ability to manipulate gravity freely."

As he spoke, the image of Gravity Crab King appeared above the proclamation scroll.

"It was during the darkest hour when the Kaiju first appeared that he helped design and perfect the Jaeger technology that humans used to fight the monsters."

"That's why humanity hasn't suffered any too great losses until now."

The girl paused for a moment: "However, after he helped ensure that humanity had the ability to protect itself, he left this world."

Su Wei stroked his chin, seemingly lost in thought, and asked further:

When did he leave?

Shiina Hiyori glanced at the timeline and answered, "Twelve years ago."

"Twelve years ago...twelve years!?"

Su Wei deliberately opened his mouth wide, feigning extreme surprise, and continued to ask:

"Twelve years have passed, and this world still hasn't been completely swallowed up and assimilated by the harem?"

"Could it be... that the person from the Heavenly Craftsmen did something to stabilize this world before leaving?"

Hiyori Shiina shook her head regretfully:

"I thought so too. But the Whispering Tome didn't tell me any more information about that 'Galerian alien,' this part of history seems to have been blocked by some force."
