Chapter 508 - 198: Hundreds of Neutral Cities Appear Within Great Xia

I can only use the Teleportation Gate Tower... I can’t bring myself to use the energy-consuming [Long-range Teleportation] that comes with my National Treasure Divine Artifact... I’ll use [Long-range Teleportation] after I enter the Pacific Ocean, the largest special area! The best tools should be saved for the most dangerous places! After all, the Pacific Ocean is the largest special area, and it’s filled with countless [Giant]-level NPCs and bosses!

Shen Fei mused to himself as he teleported rapidly. Soon, he arrived at the outskirts of a new special area. After giving a few instructions to the personnel at the Ice City Tourism Management Office, he immediately departed from Ice City—the Neutral City he had just built and over which he held absolute authority.

Now, he had once again arrived beside the fourth special area.

BOOM!

Without a second thought, Shen Fei stood beside the fourth special area and waved his hand, blasting open the passage into it once again.

"A super-version event?"

"A super-version event?"

"A special area was flattened?"

"A special area was flattened?"

As Shen Fei entered the new special area, countless panicked voices rose up among the Intelligent NPCs and Super Bosses inside the other special areas.

All the NPCs and Super Bosses within their respective special areas had clearly seen the recent "announcement" about a special area being destroyed and a super-version event breaking out. They had never imagined that special areas could even be destroyed.

They had been obediently waiting within their special areas, which expanded with every inheritance of game abilities. Aside from Devouring their own kind to increase their strength or gathering under the banners of the [Giants], these Intelligent NPCs and Super Bosses did nothing but wait for the final moment to arrive. Then, they would achieve their ultimate goal: to seize the identities of human players.

But what they hadn’t expected was that not long after the fourth inheritance of game abilities, they would actually hear news that a special area had been destroyed. This scared the hell out of everyone.

"No way. Are the [Giants] destroying the special areas?"

The vast majority of NPCs and bosses assumed human players were weak. Therefore, the first culprits they suspected of destroying a special area were the so-called [Giant]-level NPCs and bosses.

"Are they deliberately destroying the special areas to drive everyone toward the Pacific Ocean special area, where the [Giants] are largest and most numerous?"

"Or have these [Giants] found a way to increase their strength by destroying special areas?"

One guess after another surfaced in the minds of many NPCs and bosses. They believed only these two reasons could possibly motivate the [Giants] to destroy special areas, and they desperately tried to figure out what was really going on.

Unfortunately, they didn’t know the truth. The "Giants" in the largest special area, the most numerous of their kind, were also wondering what had just happened. They were puzzled, even terrified. Having already considered Blue Star to be in the bag, they simply couldn’t comprehend how something like this could suddenly occur. Moreover, someone was actually able to destroy a special area so easily and quickly.

"Hm?"

"Hm?"

On a small island within the vastest special area, the Pacific Ocean, Number 0 and Tang San suddenly froze. They had secretly infiltrated the "small island," which was a good ten thousand kilometers long and wide.

They exchanged a look and instantly knew that both of them had seen the notice about the super-version event and the simultaneous destruction of a "special area."

Because they retained their memories from the Great Chaos Secret Realm, Number 0 and the Intelligent NPC Tang San had performed Detection on many special areas. The more special areas they detected, the more worried Number 0 became about her theories regarding Intelligent NPCs and Super Bosses. They had never expected that after entering the Pacific Ocean, Blue Star’s largest special area, something so shocking would happen.

A special area was actually eliminated?

Number 0 and Tang San, who knew what the situation was like inside the special areas, immediately wondered, Since the special area was eliminated, what about the NPCs living inside it? What about the large number of Neutral Cities within it? And what about its unique Secret Realms and all sorts of other things?

The special alert for the super-version event left Number 0 and Tang San—the two people on Blue Star who knew the most information and secrets—utterly dumbfounded. Of course, they were also reeling from the shock, wondering who possessed the power to destroy a special area that contained dozens of Neutral Cities.

"Who’s there!"

"Who’s there!"

Just as the two were panicking and their hidden forms wavered slightly, a sudden roar echoed in their ears.

We’re done for!

Hearing the furious roar and seeing the "small island" instantly transform, Number 0, who already knew exactly what [Giant]-level NPCs and bosses were, felt her heart lurch in an instant.

But unfortunately, before she could even use Ethereal Transmission to escape, she watched, stunned, as a dozen or so [Giants] teleported out from the center of the "small island," surrounding her and Tang San in an inescapable ambush.

"A human player and an Intelligent NPC?"

Seeing Number 0 and Tang San, someone instantly recognized their identities.

"Speak! Why are you mixed up with a human player?! Which game did you inherit from!" one of the [Giant] NPCs roared, looking at the shifty-eyed Tang San.

These [Giants] had also heard the super-version event announcement and had recently been busy investigating humanity’s Combat Power, which left them on edge. Seeing a human player like Number 0 penetrate this deep into the Pacific Ocean, the largest of the special areas, only fueled their paranoia.
