"Your Excellency Zhong Yan is back, you... how...?" A young girl noticed the arriving Zheng Yichen from afar.
At first, she wanted to intercept him, but after seeing Zhong Yan sitting in the car, she imdiately changed her mind to welcoming him.
As she approached, her delight transford into a much more complex emotion.
A few days ago, Zhong Yan entered the boundary point alone to conduct investigations in that perilous area. However, the boundary point experienced changes, and Your Excellency Zhong Yan didn’t co out in ti.
Subsequently, so of them attempted to break into the boundary point, but apart from suffering severe casualties, they gained nothing else.
They had great faith in Zhong Yan’s abilities. Even when the boundary point had incidents and Zhong Yan hadn’t erged, they were confident that Zhong Yan would leave crucial clues.
What made them feel frustrated was that while being certain, they couldn’t enter the interior of the boundary point in ti to extract the vital intelligence.
Now they could enter, yet the boundary point had developed to an irretrievable stage, and this stability was temporary, much like tides in certain places, stable at tis and turbulent at others.
Inside the boundary point, it was extrely chaotic. Using energy to conduct a range search would trigger new turmoil.
Thus, they had never been able to find Zhong Yan.
As for the marks Zhong Yan left, they did find them, but those things were rely for remote information recording, like a video cara, finding them was essentially aningless.
They didn’t touch those marks, lest Your Excellency Zhong Yan couldn’t find them upon exiting the boundary point... it also retained a hope.
Now the hope had co true, Zhong Yan returned from the boundary point, but it was under the premise of being a revenant.
This discovery left the girl a bit lost, and tears of sadness welled up.
"I am already dead, but luckily, I encountered a Proxy Agent from Dusk." Zhong Yan accepted the fact of her death upon initially awakening.
After all, before her death, she had used a secret technique, planning to beco a revenant afterward.
"Proxy Agent of Dusk?" The tears in the girl’s eyes instantly evaporated. People in this world have a high level of energy use and manipulation, not even needing to wipe away tears.
Her gaze fell back on Zheng Yichen, and upon seeing those dusk-colored eyes, she quickly said, "I am Yuu Qing. Please wait a mont!"
With that, the girl flung out a stream of light, and from the campsite afar, over a dozen figures broke away and swiftly arrived here.
It’s as if the distance of dozens of kiloters did not exist.
When they landed, so of them reacted similarly to Yuu Qing, shocked by the fact of Zhong Yan’s death.
Then ca the hope for Zheng Yichen, this Proxy Agent.
They were all knowledgeable about Dusk, or rather, everyone in this camp has Dusk adaptability.
Those without Dusk adaptability, having learned relevant information, find little aning, thus primarily engaging in clearing Boundary Breakers.
Without Dusk adaptability, they wouldn’t overlook information about the Boundary Breaking Faction.
As long as there’s a Boundary Breaker appearance, these fighters would make them pay a bloody price!
"Your Excellency Zhong Yan, can the boundary point issue be resolved smoothly?"
Back at the camp, in a eting room, soone nervously asked.
The person asking was a middle-aged man, seemingly older than Zhong Yan but was Zhong Yan’s junior.
Zhong Yan replied, "If it was four days ago, there would still be room for resolution. Now it’s too late."
The middle-aged man showed obvious disappointnt. Based on observations of the boundary point, they had identified so problems long ago, and Zhong Yan’s words now shattered their last hopes.
Zheng Yichen, who was silently listening, scratched his cheek. Sitting on his lap, Tanshia Firlo glanced up at him, intending to speak, but Zheng Yichen covered her mouth with his hand.
He knew the small white dragon had issues now, and he also knew he had issues, but these problems couldn’t be addressed here.
The preparation ti for Dusk... Zheng Yichen now understood it.
The doubled preparation ti wasn’t Dusk’s rcy; instead, it was because Zheng Yichen was powerful enough that even if the issues encountered grew more difficult due to delays, he still had the ability to resolve them.
Preparation ti was extended based on his strength. Forty-eight hours of preparation ti is indeed satisfying, but enjoying it incurs a price.
The information obtained from the current eting makes this clear.
Had he departed imdiately upon notification, he could have triggered the current ’incident’ earlier.
Not four days ago, but at least maintaining a two-day advance.
With a two-day advance, the boundary point issues wouldn’t be so significant, and resolving those problems would be easier.
Well, this isn’t the place to discuss such matters. Even though Zheng Yichen was assigned by Dusk as a safeguard for saving the world, he had no obligation to assist this world.
Whether arriving early or late was within Dusk’s permissible range, the natives of this world have no right to demand he must arrive sooner.
That may be true, but Zheng Yichen was not so tactless as to express this matter here.
Doing so would seem like probing people’s hearts, and this isn’t sothing to casually try on a whim.
First, it’s better to listen carefully to the exchange of the indigenous people.
But as Zheng Yichen was interacting with Tanshia Firlo, the attention in the eting room gradually shifted towards him.
"..." Zhong Yan paused for a mont before saying, "Your Excellency Chang Qing, we will fully cooperate with all your actions from now on."
Soone in the eting room wanted to speak up but ultimately remained silent.
Zheng Yichen was a Proxy Agent, with eyes as dusk-colored as if the Dusk Nun herself had entered the scene undercover. Yet, here he remained an unknown stranger to them, bringing along a child no less?
But they knew that Proxy Agents specialized in solving world crises; the fact that a Proxy Agent could co here ant he had resolved many issues, fighting his way through.
Though professional in tackling world crises, when it ca to the safety of the world itself, doubts inevitably lingered in their hearts; they only had one chance.
If the world falls, it affects not just them but countless creatures existing within this world.
Though the Proxy Agent sent by Dusk was professional, his lack of understanding of their world ant that, no matter how skilled, accomplishing certain tasks without prior knowledge would still be difficult, right?
But since Zhong Yan had spoken, they couldn’t say much more.
In order to investigate the intersection point, Zhong Yan risked her life, and the Zhong Yan present now is and yet isn’t her.
But this doesn’t affect their respect for Zhong Yan, nor their regret.
Regret for not having recklessly plunged into the intersection point four days ago, bringing Zhong Yan back. Had they done so, perhaps there might still have been a chance to salvage everything?
Zheng Yichen’s extraordinary ntal perception sensed this regret from the eting room.
He calculated the ti slightly: four days ago... hmm, considering the timing Twilight inford him, if the indigenous people had indeed pulled Zhong Yan out four days ago.
There might really have been a chance to solve the looming world crisis using the power of the native world!
But they missed this opportunity and then, a day later, Zheng Yichen received the notification from Dusk, after which he ca to this world. Adding the travel ti, it matched up.
He thought about this matter but didn’t speak up about it—it was in the past; bringing it up might even make those present wish to end themselves.
At the sa ti, Zheng Yichen beca more curious about Zhong Yan’s identity.
"As long as the Boundary Breakers don’t interfere, that’s fine. There isn’t much ti; I know little about you, and you know virtually nothing about , plus I’m more adept at solo action."
Zheng Yichen ntioned his preferred thod, as ever since he started, he rarely brought others along. Even when accompanied by Liu Hongzhao and the others, they would rely observe and learn during combat.
"Any other requirents?" Zhong Yan nodded and continued to ask.
Since Zheng Yichen said this, their next steps would be to more rigorously search for Boundary Breakers and any entities related to them.
"Get a few capable death row prisoners."
"We don’t have death row prisoners here, but if needed, we can arrange for so to be brought over in about... half an hour."
Although puzzled by Zheng Yichen’s conditions, those in the eting room still provided an answer.
"And a lot of material concerning the native world, any kind will do, the more comprehensive, the better, including so knowledge-related things."
As Zheng Yichen presented another condition, the preparation ti at the camp extended from half an hour to two hours.
So were initially skeptical about whether Zheng Yichen could grasp the information in a short period of ti, but upon learning about Lilith, the super artificial intelligence, and experiencing the Virtual World, they had no doubts left.
Arrangents were made imdiately.
Knowledge related to the native world? At this point, who’s still thinking about secrecy?
As long as it could be useful, enhancing the probability of solving the problem, if Zheng Yichen asked for it, they would provide it.
While waiting, Zheng Yichen stood on a high platform watching the busy people in the camp, feeling sowhat emotional: "I really love this atmosphere..."
When he arrived, Zheng Yichen sensed the deathly stillness of this camp from afar with his extraordinary ntal perception.
Then the news of Zhong Yan’s return brought the camp out of its lifeless state, after the eting, Zhong Yan gave a speech, and the camp’s atmosphere returned to a healthy state.
Everyone here was actively attending to their tasks; nobody was thinking of idling. Even when there was nothing to do, they would take out pen and paper, writing their unique insights and skills in using strength.
There were no idle people in this camp; those who ca here were elites from all around the world.
Reflecting on the past, Zheng Yichen realized there truly was no other world where he received such substantial support from the start!
Support only ca after incidents arose, and those providing support were from broken worlds...
