Alternate Dimension Game: Happiness is all that matters!
Chapter 192 - 176 Terrifying Coin

Chapter 192: Chapter 176 Terrifying Coin

In the battle of Idealist creatures, the attacker was at an advantage, while the defender was at a great disadvantage.

As the sky gradually fractured, darkness wove slowly together, and the dark side of the world quietly surfaced.

It was a terrifying force that humanity could not resist!

For some reason, Divination Master Jenny’s mind conjured a strange scene: it was another world... a world devoured by the Demon God!

Enclosed, fearful, a world on the verge of collapsing...

A black moon hung in the firmament, like a monarch who looked down upon the world with disdain.

Not just Jenny, but many others had all sorts of bizarre visions in their minds, as if something was on the brink of being forgotten, while else was being forcefully rewritten; genes began to mutate, cancer cells proliferated...

"Ladies and gentlemen, we’ve detected a Spiritual Strength of around 500 on the surface. It appears to be an ability at the psychic level, and this Spiritual Strength is growing. Hurry to the nearest building for refuge! Do not observe the sky with the naked eye!" Number 24 yelled through the headset.

Fortunately, the buildings in the Game Training Camp were densely packed, and since most who had come here were elites, everyone quickly reacted, scattering and running for cover.

With utmost speed, they found the nearest places to hide.

The strange dark side in the sky grew larger and larger, while the Spiritual Strength on the ground also slowly increased.

However, inside the buildings, the Spiritual Strength was zero, indicating that the Game still had some residual power, protecting the humans hiding within.

"Has this unknown Demon God ever appeared on Earth before?"

"I don’t know... we’re testing its ether value."

"The Game, being a proper Demon God, shouldn’t go down so easily, right?" Professor Jin Bowen, also known as Number 24, comforted everyone with those words.

As to whether it would go down, only heaven knew.

Could it be? Just as they were finally establishing a cooperative relationship, looking forward to a win-win situation... was the Game about to go down?!

Each person was on tenterhooks, whispering to each other through their headsets.

"I even feel that this unknown Demon God might be the Game’s next plaything, just as it played with the Blood Demon."

"That said, it seems the Game is quite good at stirring up trouble. Was it caught in the act while playing with others?"

The discussion reached this point, accompanied by a subtle sense of speechlessness...

Of course, it wasn’t hard to understand; these were the Rules, the reason for its existence. Just as natural as eating and sleeping for humans.

Anyway, humanity still prayed silently that the Game would overcome the adversary.

Because their very lives hung in the balance.

If the Game lost, everyone would die instantaneously, with no chance of survival.

...

...

"Really out of power?!" Wang Hao had been trying to restart the Game for a long time, to no avail.

"Hey, hey, hey, the big cousin is getting impatient!"

"Big cousin... big cousin’s about to take off his helmet!" Han Xiaoyue was terrified to the core, shouting loudly in her mind. She was certain that the Game helmet could hear her voice.

Fortunately, her body was completely frozen; even her heart had stopped beating... so no matter how agitated she got, there was no risk of a heart attack.

The blue light on the Game helmet flickered, orderly and disciplined.

"You seem pretty sure of yourself?" Han Xiaoyue mocked, gloating, "Big cousin is about to take off his helmet!"

Suddenly, the space around her, which had been frozen, thawed.

She returned to her own time axis, regaining the freedom of her body.

An indescribable sensation of distortion emanated from where the black hole was, a faint blue light, freezing most of the area around the black hole.

"You want me to take care of it? That was the lucky coin I obtained with great difficulty." Han Xiaoyue’s face changed slightly, speaking in irritation, "When I’m useful, you call me onto the field, and when I’m not, I’m just a nanny cooking and doing chores..."

The blue light flickered rhythmically, as if coercing her.

But, with no choice, to avoid the big cousin witnessing this odd scene, she complied obediently.

She carefully approached the increasingly large black spot, took a deep breath, and tossed the one-yuan coin she had just obtained at it.

"Clack," it went.

It was but a brief moment!

It was as if a chemical reaction had occurred...

Whether it was the blue light or the black spot, both vanished completely, disappearing without a trace!

And the coin disappeared too, sucked in by the black spot.

"The lucky coin I had such a hard time acquiring... could you accompany me? No, you couldn’t, right!" Han Xiaoyue pouted, wiping her nose, on the verge of crying.

People on the beach came back to life, children’s laughter, the rolling of waves, the cooing of couples - these sounds mixed together, as if the scene just witnessed had never happened.

Wang Hao removed his helmet, tapped it a few times, saw that it wouldn’t light up, and could only sigh, "Xiaoyue, hey... did you get sand in your eyes?"

"Shall we go swimming in the sea?"

...

...

Just as everyone was absorbed in lively discussion, space trembled, and everyone’s soul flinched for a moment, feeling an indescribable burning sensation.

An entity from ancient times, from primordial chaos, from a primitive world... a round object as enormous as the Moon itself, crossed the time axis, pierced through layers of space, and arrived here.

"What... what is this?"

Even without looking up at the sky, they could still feel the enormous circular object that covered the whole sky, blocking out all the sunlight.

A massive shadow engulfed the entire Game Training Camp.

It was said that in ancient times, when the sky fell and the earth cracked open, the world fell into great disaster. Nuwa could not bear the suffering of living beings, so she melted the Five-Colored Stone to repair the heavens, bent the legs of the Divine Turtle to prop up the four corners, calmed the floods, slew fierce beasts, harmonized yin and yang to rid of negative energies, and thus all beings were finally able to live in peace.

Now, the Game had directly thrown out an immensely huge disk, like the divine stone used to mend the sky!

An unimaginable terrifying high temperature erupted in the sky!

Like the blistering heat of a supernova, dazzling halos violently burned away everything in the world.

"What... what is this now?" No. 24’s face changed color, his head spinning, "A third-party force? Ether value... no ether value?"

A situation without ether value had only happened once before, the night when the Blood Demon disaster erupted, and two bright points appeared in the sky, lasting for 1.6 seconds.

But now, the special condition with no ether value had risen again.

The energy level in the sky had reached an unrecordable magnitude, with most of the instruments damaged.

Only an extremely small number of the toughest ones continued to work.

"Everybody... don’t look up."

"Let’s hide inside the buildings!"

Elites are, after all, elites; everyone was crawling in the nooks and crannies of buildings, quietly exchanging words.

There was a premonition in people’s hearts that whoever watched these gigantic objects battle would instantly burst dead!

Witnessing a Demon God war with one’s own eyes was taboo!

Even those with strong curiosity would not commit such a foolish suicidal act.

That "sun" in the sky lasted only a mere 10 seconds.

In the blink of an eye, the terrifying anomaly vanished.

The bit of Black Light that had appeared in the sky also disappeared, and the web-like cracks quickly repaired themselves, as though the previous events had never occurred.

Only the scorched green belts in the training camp bore testament to the terrifying energy level that had just occurred.

"How are things over there? The sky has recovered."

"Not bad, the air is just a bit hot."

"The trees of the Weird Forest didn’t burn down, perhaps the Game conducted quantified protection."

"But the ordinary greenery is burned."

After a while, groups of Warriors emerged from buildings, cautiously scouting the surroundings.

For some reason, people seemed... a bit fanatic?

Again, a "boom," a loud noise in the distance about 2000 kilometers away, an asteroid struck the ground, causing a massive blast of air.

But being far from the training camp, this burst of air wasn’t too big a problem. "That asteroid must be a remnant of the circular object in the sky."

"It’s fine now, the Game has withstood the attack of the unknown Demon God."

"Shall we go take a look?"

People marveled at the world spectacle that just occurred, yet their hearts still trembled.

What if the Game starts picking fights every other day, what then?

No issue this time, but what about the next?

Yet, people were reluctant to give up the benefits here...

As functionalities in the Game Training Camp gradually recovered, many curiosity seekers began to cautiously examine their surroundings.

After all, the majority of the scientific researchers who arrived here first had experienced the unknown phenomenon unharmed, and curiosity was inevitable... plus, the Game was actually quite reasonable, as long as one didn’t mess around, it treated its own people rather well.

In this incident, not a single person died; everyone was well-protected.

Quickly, some people used the teleportation function to find that lump of meteorite that fell from the sky.

Including No. 24, the Black-clothed Guard, were amongst the crowd, cautiously watching.

The meteorite lay in a desert in the southwestern part of the training camp.

"Is this... ordinary steel? How did ordinary steel plug the hole in the sky?"

"Could it be because of the energy level? Even Demon Gods fear supernovas?"

This whole scene was simply inexplicable, incomprehensible.

But this huge meteorite was also imbued with a strange aura; everyone stood aside, daring not to touch it.

As expected, the damned Game never gave away free opportunities.

However, No. 24 and the others breathed a sigh of relief; just by hearing the name, one could guess the uses of Mind Shield Alloy.

"We don’t even know where this thing came from..."

"Report, we have connected with the real world; they didn’t notice any anomalies."

"No anomalies?"

"Yes, there was a slight shift in the timeline. For now, it’s impossible to determine where the change occurred."
