Samsara Paradise: Dream Weaver of Connections.

After returning to the camp, Lin Yi began to ask the contractors who had joined the fourth-order Zerg camp in the war channel to help inquire about the news of the super-biological crystal core.

Unexpectedly, just a few minutes later, an unexpected person suddenly contacted Lin Yi.

Bai Lan: "I have accurate information about the super-biological crystal core you are looking for."

Doctor: "What do you need to trade?"

Bai Lan: "Since you are looking for this, it means you should have a third-level Zerg nest. My condition is very simple - bring your Zerg troops and help me kill the Third Princess Claire."

Doctor: "What? Did Claire trick you?"

There was a long silence on the other end of the communicator. Although there was no response, the silence said it all. Bai Lan had indeed suffered a great loss at the hands of Claire this time.

Doctor: "How can I get to the island from here?"

Bai Lan: "I know of a secret passage that the eldest princess prepared for herself as a retreat, and it's connected to the mainland."

Doctor: "Okay, got it. I'll rush over as soon as possible."

After closing the war channel, Lin Yi's slightly tired face suddenly looked much better.

Baha, who was combing his feathers nearby, noticed Lin Yi's mood change and tilted his head to cast a curious look at him.

Lin Yi was about to explain to Su Xiao the latest developments regarding the super-biological crystal core when the reminder sound from the Samsara Paradise suddenly interrupted Lin Yi's words.

Ten minutes ago, deep in the Misty Forest, there was a joint mining site of Apocalypse Park and Holy Light Park.

The mine was damp and cold. Water droplets condensed on the rock walls kept dripping, making crisp sounds in the silence.

The swaying mining lamps stretched everyone's shadows long, casting shadows on their faces with complex expressions.

The ore embedded in the rock emitted a strange blue light, and the core of the world was faintly visible in it.

The captain of Apocalypse Paradise, a tall man covered in dark grey mechanical armor, raised his hand to wipe the condensed mist off his visor.

He sighed, patted the surface of the ore with his palm, and shook his head, saying, "This thing is a disaster. Whoever touches it will be unlucky. In the last world battle, our team lost 70% of their personnel and survived by chance. This time, it's better not to touch it."

The contractors behind him exchanged glances and nodded in agreement. It was obvious that they didn't want to be involved in the world battle again. Wouldn't it be better to just mine?
A young blond-haired, blue-eyed woman from the Holy Light Paradise sneered, "Bypass? Do you think the people from the Samsara Paradise are blind? They will find this place sooner or later, and by then we won't even have any bargaining chips!"

"Instead of waiting for them to come to us, why don't we take the initiative? Take out the World Core and negotiate directly with Samsara Paradise - we give up the right to fight and let them fight to the death with Death Paradise!"

The mine cave fell into a brief silence. A young miner from Apocalypse Paradise couldn't help but ask, "But what if they don't listen? What if they just take action..."

The blonde woman narrowed her eyes. "The people in Samsara Paradise are indeed crazy, but they are not mindless beasts. If we voluntarily hand over the World Core, they would be more willing to swing their butcher knives at those guys in Death Paradise."

These words caused a commotion among the crowd, and the miners whispered to each other, and the whispers echoed in the mine.

Several leaders of the adventure groups from Apocalypse Paradise looked at the captain of the mechanical armor at the same time, with a wavering look in their eyes.

"Just think about it. Once the plan succeeds, we can safely mine an entire world in this world! Those rare minerals and energy crystals..." She deliberately dragged out the ending so that everyone could imagine the tempting prospect.

"Vote. Those who choose to turn a blind eye raise your right hand, and those who choose to dig out the world nuclear negotiations raise your left hand."

The next sixty seconds seemed as long as a century. Some people closed their eyes and raised their hands, while others bit their lips and looked around.

One minute later, the statistical results came out - 40% of the miners chose to turn a blind eye and continued mining; while 60% decided to take a risk, dig out the core of the world, and then negotiate with the Samsara Paradise.

The voting dust has settled and the majority’s choice is clear.

Although some miners in Apocalypse Paradise still have concerns, when they think about being able to escape the cruel vortex of world war and even have the opportunity to mine safely and securely on this resource-rich planet for a long time, the flames of greed are ignited in the eyes of many people.

For them, ore is the most direct wealth, and the Thornworm Star in front of them is undoubtedly a treasure trove that has not yet been fully developed.

The planet is still in its primitive social stage. Both the native primitive tribes and the Zerg can only touch the surface or shallow mineral veins.

However, the rare minerals buried deep underground are precisely the area that they cannot get their hands on - and this is exactly the specialty of the miners in Apocalypse Park.

"Okay, let's get started!" The blonde woman waved her hand decisively, and several contractors from the Holy Light Paradise immediately stepped forward, holding special energy cutters, and carefully peeled off the outer layer of the ore.

As they operated, the light of the World Core became brighter and brighter, and a vast energy wave surged in the mine, and even the air seemed to be vibrating.

Everyone's breathing involuntarily quickened - they knew very well that the moment the core of the world fully appeared in the world, it meant that the battle for the world had officially entered the second stage.

"Click——"

The surface of the ore shattered, and the core of the world was completely revealed before everyone's eyes.

With a click, a white hand grabbed the core of the world.

[Announcement: A contractor already possesses the World Core. ]

[Announcement: The World Core must be delivered to the Ancient Ruins Baba Kaber within 5 natural days.]

[Announcement: Ancient Ruins Baba Kab: Located at the center of the Thornworm Star, after arriving at the Ancient Ruins Baba Kab, you can place the World Core at a specific location and form the world coordinates. During the formation of the coordinates, you need to guard. If the world coordinates are successfully established, the guarding party will become the winner of the world battle. ]

[Announcement: The current holder of the world's core: Holy Light Paradise. ]

[Tip: The war mission has changed. Hunters need to seize the world core before the 'world coordinates' are formed. ]

Seeing the prompt about Samsara Paradise, Lin Yi couldn't help but feel a bit of a headache.

He finally found the clue of the super biological crystal core, but the Holy Light Paradise suddenly intervened and completely disrupted his plan.

Now the situation becomes more complicated.

Lin Yi was about to swipe away the prompt in front of him when suddenly, a new announcement popped up.

[Announcement: All contractors from the Reincarnation Paradise, Death Paradise, Apocalypse Paradise, and Holy Light Paradise must arrive at the ancient ruins Baba Kaber within 5 natural days.]

[Announcement: After 12 natural days, the Ancient Ruins Baba Kaber will be completely closed, and all contractors outside the Ancient Ruins Baba Kaber will be judged by the Void Tree.]

……

After seeing the second round of announcements, Lin Yi and Su Xiao both felt something was wrong. The location of the ancient ruins Babakab had been marked on the map by the Samsara Paradise, but they were now facing a thorny problem.

The hive cannot move, and Jira must rely on the hive to accurately control the huge Zerg army.

This means that once they go to the ancient ruins, they must leave some demon beasts behind to protect Jira and the hive.

"Fuck, Samsara Paradise, this time the situation is special, can we apply to postpone the trip to the ancient ruins Baba Kaber?"

Lin Yi thought about it and decided to try to contact the Samsara Paradise. In this world battle, the Samsara Paradise had already defeated the other three paradises. Now is the best time to reap the fruits of victory.

Especially for the Jila insect nest which is about to advance to the fourth level, it would be a pity to give it up like this.

More importantly, Lin Yi clearly remembered the special prompt when he entered the world.

[Announcement: Notarization completed. During the World War, Death Paradise, Holy Light Paradise, and Apocalypse Paradise cannot provide any financial assistance to the travelers under their jurisdiction. Under special circumstances, Samsara Paradise can provide appropriate financial assistance to the travelers under its jurisdiction.]

Obviously, the Void Tree is the absolute impartial party, but this three-on-one situation cannot be considered impartial in any way, so the Samsara Paradise can provide a certain degree of financial assistance to its own contractors.

Even in extreme cases, it would not be a bad idea to simply give up this world war.

【Tip: Hunters have no right to refuse recruitment. 】

[Reminder: The hunter has checked and found that he has controlled 1640 Zerg units in this world. The Zerg development status is good.]

[Checking the historical records of the Hunter World War]

[Hunter's authority is being determined]

A series of prompts were refreshed frantically. Lin Yi could even feel the rare hesitation of Samsara Paradise. After a brief pause -

[Hunter's authority has been detected to have exceeded the limit]

[Special request approved, hunter's additional authority deducted by 10 levels. ]

[The Hunter War mission is about to be changed. The difficulty of this mission has seriously exceeded the level 5 category. If you choose to accept it, the Hunter will become the leader of this side.] [Warning: Failure of the mission will trigger the forced execution mechanism.]

[Tip: After this mission is successful, the merit reward received by the Samsara Paradise will be increased by 300%. ]

Seeing the reminder from Samsara Paradise, Lin Yi did not expect that Samsara Paradise would agree with his idea this time. It seemed that Samsara Paradise was also very angry about the three-on-one situation this time.

[Hunter's application has been approved. The countdown to the formation of the world coordinates in the final ruling is 12 natural days]

[Warning: Samsara Paradise’s special permissions have been activated, forcibly intervening in the Void Tree notarization process]

【Notarization completed.】

[Announcement: Samsara Paradise has completed the funding of the travelers under its jurisdiction. ]

[New war missions have been loaded]

[Reminder from Samsara Paradise: After 12 natural days, if the enemy successfully forms the world coordinates, the special war mission will fail and the hunter will be forcibly executed. This forced execution cannot be exempted by any authority.]

At this moment, the contractors of the Samsara Paradise have two choices. One is to continue to fight for the core of the world and go to the ancient ruins of Babakaber. The other is to fight for the newly generated world coordinates after twelve days.

For contractors from other paradises, this might be a difficult decision that requires weighing the pros and cons, but for the group of battle maniacs in Samsara Paradise who are known for their madness, the answer is determined almost the moment the prompt sounds.

Everyone accepted the second task at the same time.

If under this circumstance, they cannot obtain a newly generated world coordinate within twelve days, then it would be better for these guys to just commit suicide and avoid embarrassing themselves.

For everyone, what they lack most now is time. As long as they have enough time to prepare, they will dare to fight head-on even if facing siege from all other forces in the paradise.

"Jila, adjust the production sequence immediately. I want you to increase the number of Abyss Demon Beasts to 10,000 in the shortest possible time."

"Yes."

Upon hearing Lin Yi's order, Jila immediately interrupted the cultivation process of all other units and shifted all the resources of the entire hive to the Abyss Demon Beast.

"Next, we will split into two groups. I will personally lead the troops to raid the nest of the intelligent Zerg and seize the super-biological crystal core. You will continue to stay in the base and focus on the troops, while looking for opportunities to seize the world core."

Su Xiao nodded slightly. The current situation was indeed urgent - a mere 10,000 Abyss Demon Beasts were simply not enough to support a two-front war.

After a brief consideration, he said in a deep voice: "Take away all the Abyss Demon Beasts. I will redeploy the defense here."

Three hours later, in the shadow area deep in the insect nest, Lin Yi stood in the center of a giant alchemy array with a diameter of more than 100 meters, with a thick shadowy aura lingering around him.

Around him, tens of thousands of abyss demon beasts were lurking quietly. These ferocious creatures were surprisingly obedient to orders at this moment.

In order to enable these abyss demon beasts to reach the territory of the intelligent Zerg within one day, Su Xiao carved a huge alchemical array within three hours.

This giant alchemy array combines space folding technology with the characteristics of the shadow plane, and can increase the carrying capacity of the plane channel by twenty times in a short period of time.

The plane channel opened by ordinary contractors can only accommodate a small team at most, but now they have to transport an entire army of demons.

Along with a teeth-grinding sound of space tearing, a dark plane crack was torn open by the magic circle.

Countless rune chains wrapped around the edge of the crack like living things, forcing it to expand to a terrifying size - the scene was like a bloody mouth torn open in the void.

After entering the shadow plane, the scene in front of me suddenly changed.

Distorted shadow clouds floated under the gray sky, and tens of thousands of abyss demon beasts were neatly arranged in this alien space, maintaining absolute silence.

Due to the dimensional barrier, these demon beasts have escaped from Jila's mental control network, but Lin Yi's existence itself is the strongest constraint.

The power of the abyss emanating from his body was like an invisible chain, firmly restraining the instincts of these bloodthirsty beasts.

Lin Yi leaned slightly tiredly on a sedan chair made of shadow energy. Even with the help of the alchemy array, opening such a huge dimensional portal at once, even with the assistance of Su Xiao's alchemy array, almost exhausted Lin Yi's physical strength.

However, the shadow plane of this world is relatively mild, with only some wandering shadow creatures appearing at most.

Even if some monster really came out, there are as many as 10,000 abyss demon beasts here. Even if some blind monster really attacks, a bug can kill the attacking monster with just a mouthful of saliva.

"Set off."

With an order, the Shadow Army and ten thousand Abyss Demon Beasts simultaneously headed towards the coordinates of the intelligent Zerg.

According to the distance of the shadow plane, Lin Yi only needs about 6 hours to reach the target location.

Suddenly, several demon beasts on the outermost edge raised their heads sharply and let out low roars from their throats.

"Swish—"

A strange friction sound came from all directions, as if something was crawling in the shadows.

Immediately afterwards, the gray fog surged violently, and dozens of thick shadow tentacles suddenly stabbed out, instantly piercing through several abyss demon beasts!
In the gray fog, the outline of a huge monster gradually became clear.

It was a terrifying creature made of pure shadow energy. It looked like a deep-sea octopus, but it had hundreds of pale eyes.
This creature is the top predator of the Shadow Plane and is called the Shadow Devourer.

They usually lurk in the depths of the plane and sleep, and rarely show up!
Apparently, the breath of life emitted by the Zerg army this time was too strong, completely waking up the sleeping monster.

If it were any other time, Lin Yi might have taken a detour to avoid trouble, but today with so many Abyss Demon Beasts here, the other party was simply coming here to deliver food.

With a roar, dozens of ferocious abyss demon beasts pounced out.

Their sharp claws were wrapped with abyssal energy, easily tearing apart those seemingly indestructible shadow tentacles.

What's even more terrifying is that the attacks of these demon beasts have the characteristic of true damage, which completely ignores the physical immunity ability that the Shadow Devourer is proud of.

After more than ten seconds, the monster was torn into pieces by the abyss demon beast and turned into a ball of black mist and disappeared.

"Keep on going."

After resolving this brief episode, the demon beasts immediately restrained their ferocity, lined up in an orderly manner and continued their march.

About an hour later, Su Xiao led two thousand newly hatched abyss demon beasts and surrounded the entire misty forest like a black tide.

This time he did not hide his whereabouts at all. The heavy footsteps of the Abyss Demon Beast caused the ground to tremble slightly and startled countless birds in the forest.

Just as Su Xiao was about to give the order to attack, a loud voice suddenly resounded throughout the forest through a loudspeaker, "Friends of Samsara Paradise! Please give us a chance to negotiate! We really don't want to be your enemy!"

The sound was eerily clear and could penetrate hundreds of kilometers of foggy forest and reach every corner.

Su Xiao narrowed his eyes and held the Dragon Slash in his hand to prevent any accidents.

The camp gate slowly opened and two contractors walked out holding white flags.

The man walking in front was a burly man wearing heavy mechanical armor, with fresh dirt on his shoulder armor. It was obvious that he had just hurried in from a mine.

The other one was a girl. Judging from her clothes, she should be a nanny. However, her clothes were all covered with dust and it seemed that she had just come out of the mine not long ago.

Su Xiao stood on the back of a huge abyss demon beast, looking coldly at the two people who walked out of the camp. He raised his hand to signal the Zerg army to stop advancing, but still maintain the encirclement.

"Speak." Lidya Su uttered a word briefly.

The miner in the mechanical armor wiped the dust off his face and raised his hands to show that he had no hostility: "Boss, we are willing to hand over the core of the world unconditionally!"

The girl from the Holy Light Paradise beside him quickly added: "Really! We didn't want to do this crappy mission for a long time! Just look at the way we're dressed and you'll know that we've done nothing but mining in this damn place!"

Su Xiao's slender fingers tapped rhythmically on the hilt of the Zhanlongshan sword, making a heart-pounding clicking sound.

The abyss demon beasts seemed to sense Su Xiao's emotions and began to dig the ground restlessly, tearing the rocks into pieces with their sharp claws.

"condition?"

"No conditions! We just want to leave this world alive!" He hesitated for a moment, and then added carefully: "That is, can we continue to mine for a while? The star core ore here is of very high purity."

The girl from the Holy Light Paradise nodded frantically, her dirty little face full of desire: "Yes, yes, yes! We promise to mine quietly! We will definitely not cause any trouble! If you are worried, you can send a few demon beasts to watch over us!" (End of this chapter)
