Chapter 1026: Chapter 669 GAME MASTER

The "Blooming Flowers" bookmark in Chen Lun’s hand gradually turned dark gold.

Then, three other colors of emerald, vermilion, and dark black converged upon it.

Resplendence interweaving, illuminating one another.

The seasons alternated, as the years and scenery changed.

Chen Lun couldn’t help but close his eyes.

A stream of information surged into his mind, granting him understanding of everything—

The Original Sin, "No Return Land," as a cornerstone of the past, possesses power beyond human imagination.

And the essence of the Four Seasons Bookmark is the key to wielding the "No Return Land."

The summer "Blooming Flowers" located in the Azure Federation serves two purposes.

One is being a coordinate, which can be understood as the "pier" at one end of a bridge, with the significance of bearing and anchoring, creating an invisible passage pointing towards the Sun Continent through its mysterious connection with the "No Return Land."

The second is diffusion, or amplification.

The black substance covering its surface is actually another portion of the Destiny Path authority, "Bubble Shadow," tainted by an unknown external god, granting it an ability akin to "defining game rules," and irreversible.

The Blooming Flowers bookmark amplifies and diffuses the power of the "Bubble Shadow," reaching and enveloping the distant Sun Continent through that invisible passage.

’The "Blooming Flowers" and "Bubble Shadow" complement each other. Thinking about it now, their initial external form was none other than the game cartridges of the old era...’

Chen Lun was amazed.

If one were to label this game cartridge.

It could only be—"The Era of Mystery"!

Years ago, after Chen Feng was "smuggled" to the Azure Federation by the Ring Duke, he accomplished two major tasks.

First, he brought this "game cartridge" here and placed it in near-Earth space through unknown means, purposely discovered and captured by the Federation.

Second, he covertly guided the Federation’s research center to create the supercomputer "Helios," serving as the server for the "game cartridge."

The Ring Duke knew well that what the Sacred Fire yearned for was the power of other paths, and with the "game cartridge," the Azure Holy Church caught a glimpse of a corner of the Sun Continent, inevitably attracted by its extraordinary power.

Thus, under the leadership of the Holy Church, the Federation allocated resources, catalyzed consortium propaganda, and a cross-era holographic game was born from it...

Countless players flocked in, propelled onto the stage.

Everything unfolded according to the Ring Duke’s script.

Yet, the worlds on both sides were still too distant.

Players couldn’t truly descend, nor was it a projection activity.

Instead, it was "fictionalization"!

From the moment players created their game characters, the Destiny Path "Bubble Shadow" authority extracted a strand of their spirituality, and through the players’ customized data, a living being was fictionalized in real-time on the Sun Continent, with this strand of spirituality implanted, allowing control.

’This also explains why Noah’s painting couldn’t confine the players’ spirituality back then... Because with the game’s protective mechanism, their spirituality could safely return to reality.’

Chen Lun mused.

In other words, on the Sun Continent, every death of the Undead Foreigners was a true death.

And the so-called "resurrection" was merely the recreation of an identical vessel.

To achieve all this required enormous energy, which could only be attributed to the supreme entity, the "No Return Land"!

’Then what exactly is the purpose of the Ring Duke in doing all this...’

Chen Lun was filled with more questions.

Exhaustive planning and scheming, propelling countless players from the real world into the game, there must be an end goal.

He followed the Ring Duke’s entire layout and quickly collided with a shocking speculation.

’There are two possibilities: a vast number of players with chaotic stances could rapidly collapse the order of the Fifth Era, achieving a cycle from order to disorder... Or perhaps the Ring Duke couldn’t fully wield the power of the old Original Sin, "No Return Land," and thus could only seek an alternative path to gradually extract its power...’

Thinking back again.

The wool Chen Lun gathered from the player community, such as harvested Life and Sanity, in essence, were fictionalized by the "No Return Land." _{free\we\bnov(e)(l).com}

Simply put, creating something from nothing.

As a True God, the Ring Duke claimed to wield the old Original Sin, "No Return Land," but in reality, could only enjoy the amplification in status it brought and utilize a small part of its power.

To achieve "creating something from nothing," such convolutions were necessary.

To cite a vivid but inappropriate analogy, if the "No Return Land" were a fertile land where anything could grow.

Then the Ring Duke would be the guardian of this land.

He was not the master, unaware of the land’s "creating something from nothing" principle, nor had the right to wield this power. Yet, he desperately needed it... Hence, the Ring Duke’s approach was to transplant seedlings from the outside, utilizing the land’s fertility to help them thrive, then figure out how to reap them.

Ultimately, who benefits from it all?

It’s Chen Lun.

Everything seemed prepared for him.

Whether the Ring Duke viewed him as a "beloved son" or a "successor," Chen Lun didn’t know.

But he understood clearly that all these gifts came with a price.

Just as his panel, different from all players.

It’s accompanied him ever since the "transmigration," never disappearing, seamlessly integrated no matter where he went.

This was the "privilege" he received as Chen Feng’s son.

And it was also the price for carrying infamy and saving the world.
