T0 Gaming Guild Saves the World.

Chapter 127, Section 126: The Clarifiers Are a Bit Too Urbanized
At 12 o'clock, the virtual and real boundaries were officially connected.

The first thing I saw when I opened my eyes was Mint chasing and playing with several dolls.

The boundary between the virtual and the real is a bit like a wanderer who is too busy with work to take care of his family. He entrusts all the daily affairs of the guild to Mint and Garlic Sprout, so they have a very good relationship.

"Mint, reserve a few of the materials you need for making potions." Jiang Heyi opened the guild warehouse and began moving the materials he had accumulated over this period of time. "We're taking everything else."

"What serious trouble have you run into?" Mint tensed up immediately. "Are you alright? Is there anything I can do for you?"

Seeing everyone stuffing materials into their backpacks, Mint got a little anxious. She ran barefoot to Jiang Heyi and circled around him, saying, "I've made a lot of low-quality potions lately, so I'll take them out and exchange them for some money."

"I actually have a little stash of cash hidden away, so I don't know how big the funding gap is."

He laughed and explained, "It's nothing, just helping some people get through a tough time. We're fine."

"Really not?"

"Not really."

Mint stared intently at the eyes in the blanket, and when she felt that it didn't seem like a lie, she breathed a sigh of relief and adopted a reproachful tone.

"Who are we helping? It requires emptying our savings... We've been saving for so long, and our warehouse is finally full."

"I was just discussing guild expansion with Garlic Sprouts yesterday."

Despite saying that, Mint still carefully selected the ingredients she needed, working quickly.

Everyone's backpacks were stuffed full. Before leaving, Jiang Heyi pinched Bohe's cheek: "It'll only be a few days. Once we've finished this, I'll help you take down the Great Library of the Clarity."

Mint put her hands on her hips and snorted, "Did you empty your pockets and squander all your money before you thought of comforting me?"

"Please forgive us, Mommy Mint, we'll earn it back." The woman in the blanket clasped her hands together.

Once everyone had teleported away, Mint finally grinned helplessly.

She had already made plans with the dolls, but these hopeless kids... sigh...

However, the thought of the Great Library being so close at hand made her lips curl up a little more.

Entering the cave entrance of the Underground Temple of the Clarity marks the start of the instance world bubble.

On the surface, it is a public world bubble, just like Windpod City.

Since the opening of the Underground Temple, everyone who has been active in dungeons, guilds, guild wars, and Windjammer City has not come to the surface since the opening of the Underground Temple.

After the Clarifier dungeon was discovered, a player-dominated market quickly formed there, with merchants earning a small profit by traveling between Windpod City and the dungeon entrance.

While they were focused on conquering the temple, players on the surface were also exploring their surroundings.

The area where the temple is located is very strange; it is shrouded in thick fog during the day, which only dissipates at night.

The expeditions that set out in all directions encountered powerful monsters, most of which were related to the undead.

Due to the extreme danger and the fact that the map was not effective within the area, the players' exploration made little progress. The only thing they could do was to go out in groups, hunt spirits, and obtain soul fragments to exchange for other resources.

"Oh, here it comes!"

The arrival of World Championship guild members caused a stir among the players who had been waiting there.

Guilds that are ahead in the raid usually stay in the dungeon and don't show up, so everyone is very excited about the rare opportunity to get up close.

The number of overlapping world bubbles is increasing. Even those who are not qualified to enter the sixth layer still want to join in the fun and see if the four major guilds are really generous.

As the initiator of the event, Jiang Heyi reiterated her original intention in doing this—to allow more people to enjoy the wonderful dungeon design of the "sixth floor" before the experience is ruined.

He didn't deliberately belittle anyone; he simply narrated the story.

The rules for gifting materials are simple: using the game's temporary chat channel, the person who speaks immediately after Jiang Heyi is considered the winner.

"Popular Guild Leader Potato, I have a question. How do you determine if a winning guild is truly in dire straits?"

"Regarding this, I can tell you that this event has received technical support from the Chinese server operations team. Please, players participating in the lottery, do not put yourselves in an awkward situation."

Jiang Heyi received a private message from Chen Shaoyu as soon as she went online.

The same thing is happening not only on the Chinese server, but also on other servers. Guilds participating in this round of the game will receive assistance from the administrators.

The mysterious Starry Night Campfire even joined in.

The lottery process went exceptionally smoothly, with administrators like Chen Shaoyu quietly overseeing the process, and no one dared to take advantage of the situation.

A total of 17 sets of precious jade energy-infusing materials were sent out from the boundary between the virtual and real worlds.

Orange Sky sent out 11 copies.

The comical tree sent out 10 copies.

Even now, Khorne's chosen one, who refuses to bow down and use the self-destruct strategy, has distributed 7 portions.

A total of 45 lucky guilds have been given another chance to pursue their dreams.

In the words of the four original bodies, he rediscovered the feeling of leading newbies into the game back in the day.

The most common phrases from the selected guilds were either "Thank you, boss!" or "Boss is awesome!"

A simple and unpretentious compliment, yet enough to please everyone.

Someone in the crowd muttered, "They've accumulated enough material anyway, giving them a little won't hurt," and was instantly ridiculed by the team-building crowd and teleported away. Even after leaving the virtual-real boundary, the discussion continued.

"It has to be President Potato! He's so generous, giving away so many materials just like that."

"That's why he's a god of responsibility. Learn from him, you have a lot to learn."

"But what exactly is the mechanism that makes experts like President Potato so fascinated and full of praise, yet remain silent to maintain an air of mystery?"

"To be honest, although I'm very curious to know, the thought of people at the [Yin-Yang Realm] makes me feel nauseous..."

This is also a true reflection of the feelings of most players at this moment: curious, yet resistant to the name "Yin Yang Realm".

The guild at the boundary between the virtual and the real has already done everything it can to be generous. How many of the 45 guilds will be able to enjoy the purest form of the "boundary between the virtual and the real" depends on their own efforts and luck.

Returning to the guild and taking the 20 improved Elemental Flame Bottles provided by Mint, the boundary between reality and illusion once again reaches the ninth level.

"Heyi, have you noticed that the information displayed on the map is sometimes inaccurate?"

Zhong Zemo reported the anomaly.

The ninth floor is called the "Trial Arena" by the Slime King, but it is sometimes shown as the "Deep Green Garden" on the map given by Alna.

The deep green courtyard, as indicated on the map, is where the Clarity Ones keep their monsters.

But they were currently in the urban area on the outskirts of the arena, with densely packed houses in front of them, not an endless pastureland at all.

“The map is useless; it’s not a useful reference.” Jiang Heyi closed the map. “Don’t look at it anymore. It will only leave incorrect information in your mind and affect your judgment.”

The memory projections left behind by Alna before she disappeared have lost their guiding function. From now on, they can only rely on themselves, measuring everything with their own feet and witnessing everything with their own eyes.

"Enemy approaching from directly ahead, four demi-human puppets: werewolf, ratman, mushroom man, and cat-head!"

"Another group of enemies is approaching, numbering about 30, members of the Eternal Night Church cult."

The information in our beds is becoming increasingly efficient, with concise, clear, and easy-to-understand messages.

The closer to the city center, the more chaotic the situation becomes.

The sounds of battle echoed throughout the city, and the ripples from the collision of magic completely disrupted the mages' senses.

Everywhere you look, there is choking smoke, many streets are burning fiercely, and ruins block normal passage. The only way to distinguish between reality and illusion is to go to the rooftop for parkour.

Even parkour can't avoid the melee.

It was another small-scale melee between the demi-human puppets and the cultists. This time, Jiang Heyi waited until the demi-human puppets killed more than a dozen cultists before ordering the four original beings with the strongest grip and the best aim to throw incendiary bombs.

Back when he was practicing skipping stones, he demonstrated his mastery of parabolic trajectory, spinning a Molotov cocktail at high speed, drawing an arc in the air, and landing precisely in the crowd.

It was even an airburst.

Elemental explosions erupted amidst the crowd, and flames mixed with lightning clung to the dolls and living people, instantly transforming them into skilled dancers who moved their bodies amidst the flames and arcs of electricity.

It is very powerful and effective; it will not explode due to violent shaking when spinning in the air.

However, the boundary between reality and illusion still unanimously uttered a "Holy crap!"

Mint completely failed to warn everyone that the area affected by this Molotov cocktail was significantly increased and the spread was faster.

The rooftop where the Molotov cocktail was thrown was completely engulfed in flames, and the overflowing flames spread to the ground, setting the surrounding houses ablaze.

The power was too great; it seems they set the entire neighborhood on fire.
If they use a mid-range throw, they'll likely get caught in the crossfire.

Damn it, when will Mint ever be serious!
The cult members all became acquaintances.

After being severely injured, the mushroom man didn't care whether he saw the enemy or not, and immediately self-destructed.

The enemy wasn't harmed at all, but the mouse next to him was blown into the air.

The werewolf and the cat-headed creature managed to escape the fire, but before they could put it out, they were killed by the French fries who were lying in wait.

She is so inexperienced; the experience required for the final level is almost equal to the total experience required for levels 17 to 19.

Everyone took out the peppermint potion and looked at it again, nodding in agreement.

After a quick glance, it's clear that aside from the fact that Mint carelessly forgot to write the label instructions and precautions, the medicine itself is simply effective and easy to use.

After a demi-human doll dies, seven diamond-shaped light spots will rise up and disappear into the distance; this is something that everyone is already used to.

Regardless of the mechanism behind the warning indicator, their current approach is unstoppable; they can't seem to stop and investigate it further.

They advanced, throwing Molotov cocktails along the way.

The invasion of the Church of Eternal Night only created a few fires, most of which have been extinguished and only black smoke remains. However, after the boundary between the real and the virtual was reached, the entire block behind them was ablaze!
Every so often, experience points from who-knows-where, or from whom-who-killed, would enter everyone's bodies.

The jailer was inspired.

"Let's see if there's any kerosene or anything like that in the city."

"What do you want to do?" Jiang Heyi had a vague idea.

"Since the demi-human puppets keep spawning, why don't we create a stage that ignites as soon as it lands? Any puppet that spawns behind us will be eliminated as soon as it lands. Wouldn't that be wonderful?"

The blanket blinked: "You mean... you think the Clarity Ones are a bit too urbanized?"

　You all feel that suddenly having breakfast when there's none is a kind of surprise.
