Returning to the competition venue on bell-ringing day, Li Yi still lowered his head and pondered.
After talking to the woman who claimed to be a magician from the Elf tribe, he had been thinking about a question.
I just entered a rules-based dungeon, why did it create a whole world of problems?
Now he figured it out.
Although the system did not give a specific explanation, some conclusions can still be drawn from a small amount of information.
First of all, the copy of the Great Buddha Temple that I am in is some kind of passage between the outer world where I don't know exactly where it is and the inner world where all races are besieging the human race.
Now it's just that all the races in the inner world have invaded the passage in some way. It can be imagined that as time goes by, the spirits of these races will inevitably invade the outer world along the passage of the Great Buddha Temple.
Of course, if it's just a biological invasion, I believe there won't be any big problems. I believe that the surface world that can match the strange inner world may not be able to fight back against the invasion of the inner world.
Originally, the inner world was not very peaceful, and there were conflicts between various forces and races, even to the point of endless fight to the death.
Li Yi was not worried at all about this.
But the problem is that logically speaking, this integration between the outside and the inside should be relative. If the inside world is integrated into it, the outside world should also be expressed.
But so far, he has not been able to find any clues or evidence of the same "invasion" in the outside world.
Maybe he hasn't discovered it yet, but if not, it means that this is just a unilateral invasion of the world.
Generally speaking, there are only two reasons for this kind of unilateral intrusion, and both of them are indispensable.
The first is that the world itself has encountered some problems. If the merger is not accelerated, something big will happen.
Another and most important point.
The overall strength of the inner world greatly exceeds that of the outer world itself.
Because only this can explain why the invasion is unilateral. To give a simple example, when sailing along the current, the direction of the water's movement is always that the larger party pushes the weaker party.
This is what the world is experiencing right now.
From this point of view, the surface world corresponding to this inner world is very weak... According to what Li Yi learned, this inner world does not have a very strong combat power ceiling. A half-assed "immortal" like him can already crush Overwhelmed most warriors.
Even in many places, such as the Chen family, a genius who can comprehend the magic of immortality is simply one of a kind.
And he also heard from the female elf Emily that all races, including the elves, have completely different cultivation methods from the human race. Compared with the individual combat power of the all races, the human race is much weaker, even in terms of quantity ↑ All races far surpass the human race.
I don’t know how the human race has been able to resist this seemingly one-sided situation for so many years and maintain it until now.
unless……
Thinking of this, Li Yi unconsciously thought of something the female elf had mentioned.
According to the other party, this is just a legend.
That is about the fact that this world is originally structured by the World Tree.
He once asked the other party why, since it was a legend, when he mentioned the concept of the inner and outer worlds, the other party did not have the slightest doubt and immediately agreed.
Emily didn't answer at that time, but quickly changed the topic, and Li Yi didn't ask any more questions.
Now it seems that the other party knows something inside, but perhaps for some reason, he did not tell such a stranger to him.
In other words, the inside story that the other party knows may have a lot to do with the disaster that the world is about to face this time.
Of course, this may not necessarily be the case. According to Emily, although she is considered to be in a high position, she is not the most powerful group of people among the elves.
Maybe she just noticed something, so she told him a lot of things for the first time, even before they met and only heard his voice.
She just wanted to know more through Li Yi.
And the reason why he got involved may not be without reason.
In other words, there is a force, or a certain person or existence, pushing for this to happen.
Finally, he was pushed out.
So, who could it be?
Li Yi looked at the dots of green light in his hand, which were fragments of soul essence. According to Emily, as long as he kept holding the soul essence fragments, she would be able to contact him.
It is said that this soul essence fragment was found from the remains of the World Tree, and it is unknown what relationship it has with the World Tree.
To be honest, Li Yi didn't really believe this kind of rhetoric before, but now he has even been exposed to a lot of techniques for cultivating immortals, and he also has a certain understanding of high-dimensional creatures.
Although this kind of thing about a creature creating a world sounds no different from ancient myths, he doesn't find it unbelievable.
Maybe the so-called myths in ancient times really did exist. If you put it another way, it would make sense.
Well……
After pondering for a moment, Li Yi subconsciously awakened the system and wanted to put the soul essence fragment into the system backpack, but suddenly remembered that it did not come from the system at all.
Laughing dumbly, he was about to put the soul essence fragment close to his body when suddenly he heard a notification sound from the system, which made him stunned for a moment.
One is that he hasn't heard the system prompt tone for a long time, and the other is that the content of the system prompt tone this time made him somewhat unexpected.
More importantly, this time there were some unexpected reminders that made him suddenly understand something.
[Congratulations to the host for successfully uncovering the truth behind the Great Buddha Temple and successfully entering the next stage of unlocking. The current unlocking progress is: 24%. 】
The content of the prompt is not complicated, but it suddenly pops up such a content that is a bit confusing at first glance.
But if I think about it carefully, the prompt would pop up sooner or later. It happened to be after I had finished contacting Chen Ming and the female elf Emily that the prompt popped up.
Other than that, he didn't do anything else.
In other words, the so-called unraveling of the truth behind the Great Buddha Temple is inseparable from the secrets of this other world.
Maybe it's a thing in itself.
In fact, this was nothing. He had roughly guessed what was going on, but what concerned him was another little thing.
This matter may seem inconspicuous, and may even be ignored subconsciously, but behind this matter is what Li Yi values more.
Looking at the fragments of soul essence that had entered the system backpack at some point, Li Yi fell into deep thought.
He didn't know that just as he was starting this new period of progress, someone was being tortured by the update of his progress.
At the moment when the system prompt sounded, the players who were still in the second stage of the bell-ringing day were faced with one wave of casualties after another.
This situation is something that no one would have thought of beforehand.
Even though there are many veteran players in the team, they did not expect this situation to happen. After all, their so-called experience is based on almost no danger or near misses.
If there is an irreversible and desperate situation, most of the so-called veteran players here will not perform much better than the newcomers.
To be precise, there is not much difference between new and old players when it comes to their fear of death.
Right now, there is a small team that is running away, and behind them is a terrifying monster that cannot be viewed with normal eyes. It is chasing behind them.
The monster didn't seem to be moving very fast. It looked unhurried. Compared with the players who were fleeing in all directions, it was just a slow pace.
You must know that players, even newcomers, have various means of escaping. Scenarios like this with monsters chasing behind them are logically unlikely to happen to these players.
But if you take a closer look, you will soon realize what is going on.
Because those players were not running away without looking back, but every once in a while, someone would turn around in a very weird posture and stare at the monster without blinking.
While one person turned around, the other person turned around and ran away.
These people are taking turns staring at the monster behind them!
