Chapter 495: Dual Thread Maneuver

Realm of Infinity,Ever-changing Facade.

It possessed the mystical power of an Infinity Ranger. It was extremely terrifying.

Meanwhile, the things contained within this ruin-level relic were even more difficult to control compared to other ruin-level relics.

Even the "Summer", who was a Hell King, couldn’t fully control it, even when its true form was not present.

However, activating this power proved to be more than enough of a challenge.

"So, let the space become chaotic."

As the "Summer" gazed at the Ruin-level Relic before him, ethereal lights and shadows emerged around him. In an instant, they expanded outward, reaching a thousand miles away, extending as far as ten thousand miles.

The Giant Hive was completely enveloped, and countless people felt an indescribable sense of unease, as if gradually drifting away from World of reality. Everything around them seemed incredibly surreal.

Blurry, distorted, chaotic.

"What’s happening…?"

Mu Ling and Maryse were both inside the Giant Hive at this moment, sharing a room and discussing their feelings about settling into their new home.

Facing the strange phenomena appearing around them, Mu Ling stood up first, followed by Maryse, and both of them frowned in concern.

"It seems that there are enemies…"

Maryse closed her eyes and activated her psychic powers to sense, saying, "I can feel that there are several extremely terrifying beings outside the Giant Hive."

Mu Ling paused for a moment, realizing that Maryse had become even stronger than herself.

She could sense the terrifying presence, fearing that it would be an opponent she couldn’t overcome.

Maryse’s face turned grim as she looked at Mu Ling and said, "Each of them might be stronger than me… These people are attacking the city from outside."

"Thank goodness, thank goodness."

Maryse breathed a sigh of relief and immediately said, "As long as we hide inside Babel Tower, we should be safe… Because of the unique nature of the tower, we can come and go as we please, leaving no one behind, hehehe."

"But we cannot leave the people inside the Giant Hive here."

Mu Ling shook her head and said, "They will obviously target this city. If we just leave like this, I’m afraid many ordinary people will be slaughtered."

Mu Ling continued speaking while Maryse hesitated to say something. She wanted to speak, but kept quiet instead, deciding not to say what she wanted to.

"I can’t, I won’t just sit and don’thing."

Mu Ling’s eyes were filled with determination.

The half-elf girl also listened to her heartfelt words.

[Maryse, I’m sorry]

[I know that ordinary people don’t matter to you]

[In fact, I used to not pay much attention to those false souls, and I was once proud and selfish. But later, the Savior taught me in the Church that besides personal and family glory and responsibility, we actually have more things to fight for]

[Perhaps, the way you suggested is the right one…]

[Fighting may not be a wise move, but retreating has never been the choice I wanted.]

"Okay."

Maryse took a deep breath, blinked her eyes, and smiled, saying, "I will be with you, don’t underestimate me!"

Mu Ling smiled, but she didn’t say thank you, because there was no need for gratitude between the two of them.

Maryse continued with her story, and she also believed in certain things:

"Anyway, with the Savior and the predecessors, no matter what powerful enemies we face, Babel Tower can definitely overcome any difficulties. Yes, it’s always like this every time!"

For over a year, Maryse had gone through many experiences and she was no longer the shy girl she once was.

She had great confidence in the Babel Tower!

Mu Ling left the room and stood in the sky inside the Giant Hive. She noticed that the surroundings were changing, everything began to collapse, just like the scene every time she was summoned into the Babel Tower.

However, she could sense that this was definitely not a call from the Savior.

"What happened?"

Mu Ling felt many things changing, it was space! The space was undergoing a tremendous transformation!

More accurately, it was dimensions!

She was being projected into other dimensions!

Soon, Mu Ling discovered that she had arrived in a dimension made up of only black and white, and there was absolutely no sound.

Here was still the Giant Hive.

But it was no longer the Giant Hive from the realm of reality.

"Is this not the physical world?" murmured Mu Ling to herself, but she soon realized that she couldn’t even hear her own voice.

A silent black and white world.

She discovered that Maryse had also disappeared, the half-elf girl who was once by her side, now lost in an unknown dimension.

Mu Ling furrowed her brow. As an extraordinary being capable of entering the dark dimension at any time, she naturally knew that in the multi-verse, there existed not just the physical world, but countless, unfathomable, and peculiar dimensions of all kinds.

And each dimension has its own set of rules.

As for the material world.

It was just a facet of the multi-verse.

"What dimension is this?"

Not just Mu Ling, but also the entire city centered around the Giant Hive, and everything within a radius of thousands of miles, were all affected by the mystical power of the Realm of Infinity, Ever-changing Facade, instantly and haphazardly projecting them into different dimensions.

The magical barrier protecting the Giant Hive, ultimately, was just a creation bound by the rules of the material world. In many dimensions, it might not work, and perhaps would yield different results.

But no matter what, it gave the invaders an opportunity to take advantage of.

She took a deep breath.

In this very moment, Mu Ling found herself in a dimension she had never ventured into before, yet she didn’t feel lonely or afraid.

Because, the great Savior connects us all.

"No matter how far apart we are, we always fight side by side."

Meanwhile.

"Endless Treasures."

It was located on a very unique island.

"Strange Realm"

This island didn’t belong to any star, but rather existed in the vast ocean.

If you looked down from the sky, you would discover that this place had a vast sea suspended in the universe, and there was no spherical entity like what people conventionally know as a "planet."

It was not an ordinary ocean, but rather a "boundary" created by the sea deity, with the same effect as the River Luo.

The Sea of Abyss.

If one were not a divine being, attempting to cross this mysterious Sea of Abyss or to dive beneath its surface would immediately lead to sinking to the deepest ocean floor, never to move again.

Up until now, the extraordinary beings that have fallen into the depths of the ocean are countless. Here in the Sea of Abyss, where countless so-called powerful beings, monsters, and civilizations have failed, they haven’t even had a chance to catch a glimpse of the islands.

Inside the mysterious Sea of Abyss, nothing exists, not even a single fish. However, in the center of the ocean lies the exceptionally unique "Strange Realm."

Now, Bai Yan and his companions are on top of this island.

With the power of the Babel Tower, they didn’t have to journey through the Sea of Abyss. Instead, they magically arrived here in an instant.

Bai Yan pondered for a moment, and he chose not to share what had happened in Noah’s world with everyone.

Mainly, it’s the Scarlet Moon. The Scarlet Blood Clan might be more important to her than anything else. Revealing what happened over there now would disrupt her composure.

The task on this side still had to be completed diligently. As long as they could obtain treasures from the mysterious island, it would further aid the Babel Tower in Noah’s world.

In fact, Bai Yan was well aware that most of the gods who had hidden treasures in the "Endless Treasures" dungeon had already fallen.

Their actions, in a way, resembled grave robbing.

But those who have read the story know that grave robbing is very risky.

Even though the immortal gods have fallen, they can still have immense influence on the mortal realm. They have created various challenges on the island, and only by completing them can one obtain the treasures.

"Be careful, even we must be cautious on this island."

"Don’t be such a scaredy-cat."

The Scarlet Moon gulped and stared at Profligate, muttering a curse.

Mmm, it smells wonderful.

But Bai Yan, with a stubborn smile on his face, disregarded her scorn and disdain. Deep within his eyes, a flicker of dark flame emerged as he activated the power of "Connection," intending to investigate the situation on this island.

He closed his eyes once again.

"Let’s go. I have already searched and selected enough information about this island."

The Strange Realm could actually explore a much larger space than it seemed, but, for the most part, they didn’t have time to visit most places.

"On this island, there are a total of seventy-two secret treasure locations and five hundred and thirty-five traps. Some traps can even send people to hell. We have limited time, and the first treasure location we need to go to is there."

After Bai Yan finished speaking, he pointed to a nearby lake.

The lake was exceptionally clean and clear, as if ripples were shimmering gently. Looking at it for a long time could even captivate someone and make them have the desire to step into it.

Little Scarlet Moon nodded and was about to take a step towards the location he pointed to, but Bai Yan immediately stopped her by grabbing her arm.

"That place is a hidden treasure, but also a trap, be careful."

He hesitated for a moment, then called for Aurora and the Slime, asking them to stay here with the team, while only he and the Scarlet Moon went ahead.

The challenge of this treasure doesn’t require too many people.

He instructed, "Scarlet Moon, when we reach the Silent Lake, no matter who you hear speaking around you, never respond, understand?"

"Hmm."

The Scarlet Moon snorted unkindly and reluctantly agreed.

Bai Yan smiled as he reached out to pat her head, but the angry Scarlet Moon deftly dodged his attempt.

"Why do you stay like this?"

The Scarlet Moon explained, "I am just compressing the energy within my body that I normally have. This way, I can unleash greater power during battles."

"I understand now."

In fact, Bai Yan had known the reason why she was doing this for a long time. He just wanted to find a topic to talk about, and at the same time, he was also busy dealing with Noah’s situation.

The situation over there was even more tricky. After obtaining the most important treasure from the "Endless Treasures," they had to rush back immediately.

Seventy-two treasures, Bai Yan had already made a reasonable judgment. They actually only needed to take three of them, leaving behind the remaining sixty-nine treasures either because they were too challenging to overcome or simply not suitable for Babel Tower.

"We arrived."

Bai Yan made a silent gesture as they approached the lake, signaling for silence. The Scarlet Moon nodded softly, refraining from making any further sound.

"Boom!"

She paused, then quickly noticed something strange!

Unconsciously, there was no ground under her feet, only water. The lake before her had turned into a vast and turbulent ocean, stretching endlessly. Towering waves, several kilometers high, surged violently, as if they were about to swallow them at any moment!
