Poverty makes me capable of anything.

Like the monuments I've seen before, it is engraved with runes.

The runes on this large stele were even thicker.

The thickness of each of the grooves he carved was comparable to that of his arm.

"Touch it and see..."

One player reached out and touched it.

He was very careful.

I thought something unexpected might happen, but in the end, nothing unusual occurred.

They were simply able to read the information on the metal tablet at a closer distance.

"Have you figured out anything?" Chang'an Yi Er San and the others' voices rang out in the team channel.

"No."

"Hurry up, we can't hold out much longer here."

"..."

That's frustrating.

I went through all the trouble to get here, but it seems like something is missing.

"Does that mean we have to see every single monument?"

"This……"

The others were a bit confused.

Now that you think about it, it actually makes some sense.

This is only the fifth monument; it's very likely that to trigger the hidden quest, you'll need to collect information from each monument.

"So what do we do now?" Sanshengshi asked, sweat beading on his forehead.

"After leaving there, we need to find the other steles. The locations of three of them have already been recorded, and we're just one short..."

Chang'an, one, two, three, suddenly stopped talking.

"how……"

Sanshengshi wanted to ask something more, but the player next to him tugged at his sleeve and pointed to the sky.

"..."

The Three Lives Stone raised its head.

He saw the incredible special effects in the game that he was sure he would never forget for many years to come.

The hazy fog seemed to be dissipating, and the blood moon, which had been there, was even fading a little as it swayed.

But these are not the main points.

In the pitch-black night sky, four enormous beams of light emanated from an unknown place and shot straight into the sea of ​​stars.

To be precise, a beam of light shone from the sea of ​​stars.

Extending towards the infinite distance, the moment the light converged, a gigantic vortex appeared.

That vortex seemed to contain a whole world.

A reversed Milky Way hangs in the sky.

Sanshengshi felt the world spinning around the metal tablet in front of him.

"What's going on? Is it because we touched this metal monument just now?"

No.

This is certainly not the beginning.

It started ten minutes ago, in a more distant place.

Not on this planet.

It was a frozen wasteland that stretched as far as the eye could see.

After a wave of promotion on the forum, many players received the hidden quest "Eternal Void".

They didn't know who the question marks in Sword of Judgment II and III referred to, but they recognized Bessadin, the NPC who had appeared on the live stream.

"Those sand-walled enemies from the Hundred Wood Pirates and Black Bay Pirates are trying to release the Void. These game-breaking bosses absolutely cannot be allowed to appear at this stage!"

Players searched everywhere for Bessadin.

There were already some players who had been captured and forced to "mine," and Besida's whereabouts were exposed after only a short time.

The players made their move just as they were about to reach the fourth metal monument.

They came in groups.

They are extremely well hidden.

They all picked up ultra-long-range sniper weapons, and some even had something resembling a portable rocket launcher.

These weapons were all poured into Bessadin's back.

Boom—

The continuous explosions echoed throughout the valley.

Several minutes passed and it still didn't stop.

Unfortunately, no one felt excited.

Although the damage numbers kept fluctuating, the game did not indicate that Bessadin had died.

This is at least a level 70+ BOSS.

Upon sensing the danger, Bessadin immediately used his abilities.

Hardening and transposition.

Body hardening reduces damage, and position swapping can force and close-range replacement of the marked person's position.

So don't be fooled by the spectacular explosions; most of the damage actually hits the target he swapped with.

The remaining splash damage did not cause much damage to Bessadin.

"Take care of all the attackers," Bessadin said grimly.

At such a critical moment, a bunch of little ants actually jumped out to cause trouble. Did they get too cocky, or did they think the Hundred Wood Pirates were too weak to wield their swords?

It should be noted that the entire Hundred Wood Pirates crew, along with Bessadin's men, came this time.

Even though many of them are scattered in other places.

There are quite a few hidden in this area.

Battle broke out.

For a while, no one bothered them.

But Bessadin, who was behind him, Sheila, sensed something was amiss; the situation had changed slightly.

These strangers originally had no hostility towards them, but now they suddenly rushed at them as if their lives depended on it.

What exactly happened in between?

In short, we can't delay any longer.

"You all stay here and I'll remove the seal from this monument first."

Bessain walked up to the metal monument and used the same method as before to remove the seal on it.

As before, the metal monument turned blood red.

The difference was that the ground suddenly began to shake.

Mu Shen, who was standing not far away, stared wide-eyed.

The metal monument inserted into the ground slowly floated up, and a white light, like a road, suddenly extended from the top of the monument, stretching all the way into outer space.

An anomaly has occurred.

Chapter 33 She seems to know something

The scene that Mu Shen and Bessaida saw was not much different from what Chang'an Yi Er San and the others saw.

The only difference was that they saw the extension of one of the beams of light.

The scene was so vast that it could be seen anywhere in this planetary system.

A miraculous light covered most of the area, and after a long while, a new beam of light shot out from the inverted Milky Way.

After passing through the vast universe and the thick gray fog, the light finally shone on the hidden fifth metal monument.

"It's here!" The masked man stood up excitedly.

The void is guiding the way forward!

The hidden stele can be found by removing the seals on the four steles in front. This is one of the most important things that the sealed void has done over the years.

If it weren't for this connection, we wouldn't know where the fifth metal monument is, and we wouldn't know when our desire to liberate the void would be fulfilled.

Sheila also got excited.

Once she unleashes the void, she'll receive even more power. Then, even if that little bitch from beyond the universe comes in a mecha, she won't be a match for her!

Hahahaha...

"Okay, all we need to do is confirm which planet that light is pointing to!"

Bessadin's face lit up with surprise.

To avoid any unforeseen circumstances, there can be no delay.

“I’ll personally pilot the spaceship to the outside world to check. You’re responsible for clearing out all the strangers in the vicinity!” Bessadin said.

"Yes!"
