He could only let things take their course and look forward to tomorrow's battle.
But his greatest gain wasn't from experimenting with moves or climbing the ranks.
He seemed to have vaguely touched upon a hidden secret of this paradise world.
“Entering the fighting arena is like entering a dream; only the spirit enters, not the body.”
“It’s not so much that everything returns to normal after the battle.”
“Rather, from beginning to end, the combatants don’t experience the slightest bit of consumption because it's all a dream.”
Jiang Wang said, a look of interest on his face.
“And to think that requests for battle are actually granted, it’s truly bizarre.”
Jiang Wang wanted to quickly climb his rank to fight the strongest combatants as fast as possible.
So he made a request for a massive free-for-all, and unexpectedly, it was actually granted.
“So, is there a consciousness present? Constantly watching everything?”
“This paradise world has many points worth digging into.”
Jiang Wang sighed with emotion, continuing to watch the battle, but he had already quietly issued an order.
At this moment, Heras was meeting up with the bandit gang, preparing to look for someone.
While walking, he suddenly received instructions from Jiang Wang, and after a long silence, he began to ask.
“Regarding this paradise world, are there any hidden major secrets?”
“For example, circulating powers, buried artifacts, or perhaps, treasure-filled secret realms.”
“Are there any relevant records or legends?”
Heras asked, this was what Jiang Wang had instructed him to do, and of course, he had to ask about it.
Dealing with the World Serpent was, of course, a crucial task.
But on a whim, Jiang Wang became more interested in this world.
Moreover, there was one important point…
The World Serpent organization occupying the paradise world offered no benefits.
Yet they did it anyway, even though this operation had no advantages to gain.
This world had no world consciousness, no world origin, and no resources.
It was simply a losing venture.
When Evolution Bro spoke with Jiang Wang earlier, he briefly mentioned this aspect as well.
Either the World Serpent had a larger plan, and occupying the paradise world was just a preliminary step.
Or the paradise world held some secret.
And in Jiang Wang's view, although he had little information, he could see a few clues.
First, there was the strange mechanism within the arena that matched opponents according to requests.
It was as if there were eyes watching, ears listening, and a consciousness thinking?
Then there was the method of pulling people into dreams, where one could obtain every enjoyment with extremely cheap tokens.
The meaning was unclear, but it was strange enough.
Finally, there was the World Serpent's plan, their grand plan, which had already begun.
After all, they were indifferent to the Soul-Devouring Harlot being captured, and had no intention of saving their companion.
Not only did they not save her, but they didn't even try to eliminate her.
Previously, to prevent Lord Musu from exposing their plan, they had directly sent someone to kill him.
Now, different members were receiving completely different treatment, and without a doubt, things had changed.
Their grand plan was being executed, and it was already unstoppable.
Even if the Soul-Devouring Harlot had the possibility of exposing the plan, it no longer mattered.
Even if the plan details were leaked, they could continue to push forward, and the lives of the members were naturally irrelevant.
“Lord Heras, why do you ask that?”
The bandit leader asked, puzzled.
“Are you playing dumb? You must know something.”
Heras narrowed his eyes, revealing a dangerous aura.
“You previously deduced that the World Serpent's actions were self-defeating and suicidal.”
“But they still did it, could you have thought of that, but they didn’t?”
“They’re just crazy, but not stupid, and the people of the World Serpent aren’t even as crazy as the Joybringers.”
Heras said, revealing a hint of frightening aura.
“Tell me everything you know.”
Heras said, frowning.
“They might be here for power.”
The bandit leader said, reaching out to rub his brow.
“Lord Heras, the World Serpent craves to devour the origin of various worlds, in order to accelerate the improvement of their own strength.”
“They must have set their sights on the paradise world's ‘source of power,’ right?”
“The only way I can think of that they could profit is this.”
The bandit leader said, revealing a helpless expression.

Heras narrowed his eyes, instinctively feeling that something was wrong, because the paradise world had no source of power.
But the bandit leader's words must have meant something, they weren't said without a reason.
“The paradise world may not have a source of power, but it does have a substitute power.”
“Otherwise, how could this world move? How could those rotten things be restored?”
“All sorts of things in this place can be obtained by using tokens, the whole world is running.”
The bandit leader said, slowly squatting down and reaching out to pat the ground.
“This world contains a vast power, and the World Serpent is very likely here for it.”
The bandit leader said, this was his guess, and it was indeed enough to answer Heras's questions.
“I always feel that there is something strange about you, you wouldn’t be…”
Heras looked at him, his killing intent becoming even more turbulent.
“No, what's wrong? Did I say something wrong?”
The bandit leader's legs immediately went weak, and he collapsed to the ground like a dog, kowtowing to Heras repeatedly.
Heras's fist went straight for the bandit leader's head.
Mixed with endless killing intent, Heras threw a deadly punch.
If the bandit leader didn't dodge, he would definitely die, but if he dodged, it would mean…
But this bandit leader just trembled all over, and in an instant, a foul odor permeated the surroundings.
This guy actually soiled himself and passed out with his eyes rolled back.
Heras's fist only barely stopped above the bandit leader's forehead, the deadly punch didn't land.
“Clean him up and wake him up.”
Heras said, was it because he was too dirty that he couldn't bring himself to strike?
Not so, his punch just now didn't carry any killing intent, it was just a test.
“Master, this bandit leader is probably not simple.”
Heras began to report the situation to Jiang Wang through the Zerg's internal communication.
He told Jiang Wang the whole story in detail.
“I think I understand what you mean, he's hiding something.”
Of course, Jiang Wang could hear what Heras meant.
It was something that could be figured out with a little thought.
If the World Serpent's goal was really some “world origin,” that would be too ridiculous.
Admittedly, the power driving the entire paradise world was very vast.
It could move the world, restore damage, and provide endless entertainment.
This power was amazing, and it would indeed attract the attention of many people.
The people of the World Serpent would indeed be very interested, but it was impossible for them to bring so many people out for this.
“This guy is likely a member of the Joybringers, just pretend to be foolish and believe him.”
“I want to see what happens when this mad organization joins this muddy water.”
Jiang Wang smiled, it seemed that it was no longer possible to get information from this bandit leader.
This guy was too good at hiding, he clearly knew what the World Serpent wanted.
But in order to hide all this, he even ignored Heras's powerful attack.
He even pretended to be a weak chicken, deliberately making himself soil himself and even pass out.
“He wants to go with the flow and use the World Serpent's plan to achieve his own goals.”
