Chapter 306: Chapter 259 【Delusions】Breaking the Seal! (6000 words!)_2

With the massive collapse of "Paradise", the light screen that had previously stopped the crowd from leaving completely disappeared, and a massive crowd surged towards the exit.

On the other hand, the people on the first floor were also pouring in!

"Outside..."

"Paradise has collapsed, and a large amount of Black Fog has appeared outside. Touching it means death!"

"Quick, into the cave!"

"Not only are there monsters in the cave, but there is also Black Fog!"

All humans had nowhere to flee—no escape to the skies above nor gates into the ground. At this moment, no place was safe.

Moreover, with the tide of monsters surging up from below, the crowd fighting the monsters became a tangled mess, with pitiful screams and eerie shrieks intertwining.

Even because "Eternal Illusion" had transferred the processing power to the dragon, monsters started fighting amongst each other as well.

The instigator and bystander, comrade Wang Hao, lay in the corner of the wall, feeling the tremors on the ground.

At this moment, there was no escape. Once he came out of "playing dead", he would immediately be torn to shreds by various monsters.

The distant Black Fog slowly crept over but didn’t attack him directly.

He saw many bizarre scenes.

Desperate crowds, pitiful wails, frantic monsters, collapsing caves, destroyed Paradise...

Many monsters were wearing the raincoats of delivery men from the "Sheep Intestine Tunnel" script, and some even carried tattered backpacks. But none of these backpacks were intact, and the "throbbing" items inside had long vanished.

Wang Hao thought that the 1000 points of this fourth reincarnation might have been lost.

"Ah! It’s really chaotic!"

But... quite exhilarating!

All sorts of bizarre and unexpected scenes emerged endlessly.

The experience of pioneering in a game is the most delightful.

Although the gaming process can be tough and often ends in death, the novelty of pioneering is something hard to come by later on.

For instance, he had played "Hunger and Cold", where during the beginner days, one could starve, black out, freeze to death, or even get bitten by wild dogs; also, "Ring World", where a newbie might be beaten to death by a bandit with a stick or heroically perish from the flu.

But patting his head and starting all over again, that sense of novelty is quite nice too!

Wang Hao consoled himself, "The fourth reincarnation wasn’t entirely fruitless!"

First, he learned from Lou Ronggen’s information that sleeping in the small attic on the third floor could allow one to enter the legendary eighth floor!

This was definitely critical information!

"Second, if these monsters were transformed from humans, it means they might have opened their backpacks?"

"Opening the backpacks turns them into monsters?!"

And the third point—Paradise might be located on the Moon!

This information was crucial. He’d been thinking in the wrong direction in many areas, completely off track.

"Given this, destroying Paradise doesn’t really seem important..."

The key point to sealing the Moon of Illusion lies in the eighth layer of the underground mine.

That is, following the storyline is highly likely.

...

As the battle between the Dragon and the "Moon of Illusion" continued, more and more snowflakes appeared on the screen.

Eventually, the game character seemed to enter a state called "Nothingness", where aside from a vast expanse of snowflakes, he couldn’t see or hear anything else.

"Is this death? Or not?" Wang Hao removed his helmet, pondering.

The helmet’s light was normal.

After brewing a cup of coffee, he returned to see the screen still filled with snowflakes.

"It would be nice if you let me move."

He discovered a "Time Acceleration" button on the screen.

He clicked it, and a prompt popped up.

"Unfortunately, based on system calculations, the "Dark Moon·Dragon Devouring the World" challenge will fail."

"Your game character will be trapped in ’Eternal Illusion’. Would you like to restart the game?"

"It’s over, huh."

Fine, considering a potential failure, Wang Hao wasn’t too upset about the thousand points lost.

A Seven Stars difficulty justifies the failure in four reincarnations; it’s nothing.

This gaming experience was definitely worth more than its cost!

Quite thrilling.

Wang Hao let out a sigh from deep within his chest, analyzing the clues he had collected so far at his computer desk.

...

...

In the otherworldly realm, a black moon hung high in the sky!

A cold, eerie atmosphere swept across the world, quickly dropping global temperatures below zero degrees Celsius. This strange feeling made people’s scalps tingle, souls shiver, and blood freeze.

The operations of the entire society came to a halt as the government sent out text messages as quickly as possible, urging people to hide at home, not to go out, or look at the sky.

"The phenomenon in the sky is a rare solar eclipse occurring once in a century. All citizens must stay indoors, please do not look directly at the sky! Do not take pictures, to avoid cosmic radiation entering the eyeballs, leading to bodily mutations," the TV host was reporting the news with a serious voice.

All sorts of broadcasts, television, and the internet were broadcasting the same message. In this world, there is no curiosity, only rules.

Those who were excessively curious were already dead!

And in fact, her body was trembling, and even her voice unconsciously quivered.

What solar eclipse, what cosmic radiation, all were lies!

As a TV host, she often had to broadcast some inexplicable news.

Human knowledge is like a circle; inside the circle is the known, outside is the unknown. The more you know, the bigger your circle grows, and the more you realize you don’t know. That vast sense of panic attacked her spirit.
