“That’s right, just like that…”
On the castle’s watchtower, Chen Yu lay leisurely on a lounge chair, enjoying ice cream handed to him by Lina on his left, and sipping lemonade fed to him by Effie on his right.
His gaze was fixed on the battle unfolding in the Shadow World above him.
He couldn't have been more content.
Seeing the Contract Adventurer leading two hundred thousand Adventurers in a counterattack, Chen Yu even stood up and waved his hand, “Go! It’s time to counterattack and tell these Dark Creaturess… From now on, the offense and defense have shifted! If the invaders can come, so can I!”
Beside him,
Lina and Effie’s eyes sparkled. Listening to his words, a surge of heroism couldn't help but rise in their hearts.
They didn’t know much about the relationship between the Dark World and Dark Creaturess, only understanding bits and pieces from Chen Yu, knowing that Dark Creaturess had been constantly invading the Dark World, Adventurer World, and even the Lord World, as well as all other worlds in the entire universe.
This included the troops transported from countless worlds; the initial reason they willingly came to the Dark World to become a sharp blade under a Lord was to resist the invasion of Dark Creaturess.
As for where these Dark Creaturess came from?
It was unknown…
Everyone only knew that it was a defensive battle for the survival of countless races in the universe.
Once these Dark Creaturess broke through the defense line, death would be their only outcome.
For the entire universe,
the Dark World was the first barrier, and the Adventurer World was the second.
The existence of the system, in its earliest days, was to combat these monsters crawling out of unknown voids. It was a miracle created to facilitate the integration of resources across the entire universe.
Since the system appeared a few hundred years ago, the universe had never again suffered an invasion from Dark Creaturess, and these guys had always been suppressed beneath the Dark World.
They could only come out and cause trouble during the Dark Tide…
Later, it gradually evolved into its current state.
Seeing that the Dark Creaturess were indeed suppressed and would not bring any harm to the entire universe, people gradually forgot their original intention and began to engage in conflicts between Lords.
After several hundred years of development…
The struggle with the underground Dark Creaturess became a record in the long river of history, only mentioned in school textbooks, and not many people remembered it at other times.
Anyway, these Dark Creaturess could no longer cause much harm.
As for a complete counterattack into the underground world to thoroughly eradicate the Dark Creaturess?
No one had thought of it…
Because it was simply too difficult. This was impossible for a War Lord; no matter how many resources they had, they couldn't counterattack the underground world when the Dark Tide arrived.
If they really wanted to fight, they would have to go to the center of the Dark World and unseal the passage there that led to the underground world.
But once this seal was broken, if they couldn't win, they wouldn't be able to seal it back.
At that time, for the entire universe,
it could be a devastating disaster.
Besides this sealed passage, the only way to counterattack was through the Shadow World above Chen Yu’s head. Through the Dark Rift in the Shadow World, it was indeed possible to counterattack into the underground Dark World.
But…
The problem was that this path could only be taken by Adventurers and Dungeon Lords.
Only a Dungeon Lord who could unleash extraordinary imagination and construct a powerful worldview could create beings capable of fighting against Dark Creaturess.
And Dungeon Lords with such imagination and creativity were becoming increasingly rare…
Current Dungeon Lords only cared about two things: how to quickly create a hit Dungeon to earn enough soul crystals, and how others created their hits.
As for expending effort on imagination and creation…
That was only something they would waste time on if they had an excessive amount of soul crystals.
“Lord…”
Lina had a slight look of confusion in her eyes. “If, as you said, the Dark World exists to suppress the underground world, then what about us, the natives?”
Every time the Dark World expanded, a group of natives would appear, becoming targets for War Lords and Dungeon Lords during their expansion.
These natives looked similar to the troops of the myriad races…
Making one wonder if the expansion of the Dark World was actually the absorption of pieces of land from countless worlds.
And the natives were the unlucky ones who came along with these lands.
“Natives…”
Regarding this question, Chen Yu only had a guess.
He wasn't sure what the truth was.
He could only shrug and say, “Who knows? Over several hundred years, the records we see now are only brief and unclear, without much explanation. I’ve only pieced together this answer. The truth of such matters might only be known by those old folks who have lived for several hundred years.”
“But in any case, one thing is certain…”
Chen Yu’s gaze fell back on the sky, looking at the inverted Shadow World and the two hundred thousand Adventurers.
A slight curve appeared at the corner of his mouth. “That is, we can indeed counterattack the underground world through the Dark Rift, and counterattacking the underground world requires enough creativity and imagination. Coincidentally… in my mind, what I lack least are those magnificent worldviews. Each of them possesses sufficient recognition, a unique system, and countless beings with unique information elements.”
Resident Evil, Dungeon and Eight Million Warriors, Dynasty Warriors, etc…
This was just the beginning.
As his level continued to rise and his spiritual world became stronger, more powerful beings would appear.
At that time…
The horn of counterattack would only blow more fiercely.
Moreover, as his Dungeon became known to more and more Adventurers, the information element strength of the Dungeon would also increase, and those powerful beings would become stronger and stronger.
As for now, let’s give the Dark Creaturess of the underground world a small shock!
The moment Chen Yu looked up,
the two hundred thousand Adventurers had already rushed to the edge of the Dark Rift.
After transforming into various monster cards, the Adventurers’ appearances underwent drastic changes, and the aura emanating from them even caused some panic among the Dark Creaturess inside the rift.
At this moment, the Dark Creaturess inside the Dark Rift seemed to be the hunted ones.
And these Adventurers…
Each of them revealed excited, frantic expressions in their eyes, as if they were the hunting maniacs.
