I Am Also An Extraordinary Creature

Chapter 1614 - 1142: All Allies

"Why don’t you take a good rest for a while? You’ve been back for almost a month, and soon, Dusk will assign you corresponding tasks."

Du Gang advised Zheng Yichen. In this world, Zheng Yichen had already devoted a significant amount of energy, and the investigations in various aspects had yielded nothing. So far, they still couldn’t determine what exactly happened.

Du Gang also pulled some strings and communicated with people he knew before. He even participated in the Dusk Extermination Order and got to know many Proxy Agents.

Some of the Proxy Agents had died completely, but more of them were living well. He would often have exchanges with them and even visit them as a guest.

However, those Proxy Agents also had no clue about what happened on Zheng Yichen’s side. Everyone had fascinating experiences, with quite a few overlapping parts.

But this was the first time they encountered such a thing.

A perfectly fine world suddenly mutated?

This was a balanced world, the balanced Misty City World was like a Pixiu, swallowing up all other balanced worlds, thus eliminating the balanced state.

Some of them had thought of a bold guess as to whether Zheng Yichen, the local Proxy Agent, had done something, sacrificing other worlds to benefit the Misty City World?

Hmm... this was just a useless, bold speculation. Everyone was a Proxy Agent, so their restrictions were clearly understood by each other. Zheng Yichen not messing around in his local world doesn’t mean he could mess around in other worlds.

Dusk only cares about the local world, but Proxy Agents are under the jurisdiction of Dusk. No matter which world they go to, Dusk can manage them. There’s no issue of Dusk in another world lacking enforcement power.

Therefore, this bold guess was just a speculation. The occurrence of such an event must be due to external reasons brought by the Boundary Breaker. However, they weren’t clear on how it was achieved, and the affected worlds were all doomed.

The local Dusk doesn’t concern itself with the affairs of other worlds, so Zheng Yichen couldn’t gather much information.

It’s certain that this matter was related to the Boundary Breaker, but there’s no presence of Boundary Breakers locally, even if they had connections, there’s nowhere to investigate.

Zheng Yichen’s investigation mainly aimed to uncover traces related to the Boundary Breaker.

Yet the Boundary Breaker seemed to have completely vanished, as if nonexistent. Zheng Yichen considered going to the Outer Realm, worried that the Boundary Breaker had done something to the World Barriers.

"How can I rest? No matter what, this is my local world. I’ll go to Dusk for a while."

Zheng Yichen jumped off the rooftop. Some people on the street saw this; some were surprised, but more were indifferent, ever since the heart-core planet mutation.

There were too many abnormal people in Misty City, and there were those who moved swiftly between heights. Some seemed to jump off buildings, some really did, while others just intended to take off, and some landed lightly.

Landing, Zheng Yichen went straight to the Dusk Territory and directly applied to Tia, "I want to check out the Outer Realm, give me a paper permission."

"Here you go." Tia tore a piece of paper from the little notebook recording merit points, on which the word ’Permitted’ was written.

"So straightforward?" Taking the paper, Zheng Yichen asked with some surprise.

"The consequences are yours to bear."

"Really disheartening." Zheng Yichen left the Dusk Cathedral with the paper in hand.

Outside, Du Gang looked at Zheng Yichen coming out, then at the paper in his hand, and his chiseled face showed a bit of astonishment, "Dusk really agreed?!"

Zheng Yichen put away the paper Tia gave him. Having Lilith scan it repeatedly and analyze it from all aspects, he confirmed it was just an ordinary piece of paper.

"They agreed."

"Unbelievable!!" Du Gang couldn’t help but click his tongue, "Wait for me a moment."

After saying this, he ignored his tower-like burly image and jogged into the Dusk Cathedral, finding his own Dusk nun to apply for something.

Five minutes later, Du Gang walked out from the Dusk Cathedral, looking conflicted, "I’m done."

"What did you apply for?" Zheng Yichen asked curiously.

"Just a leave, I asked the Dusk nun if I could extend by half a year, she ignored me. I finally asked if I could extend by a day, and she still ignored me."

Five minutes, from half a year to just one day, Zheng Yichen felt the disparity was a bit too wide.

"Alright then, I’ll go find a suitable place first."

Zheng Yichen left Misty City, and this time Du Gang didn’t follow him. With Zheng Yichen going to the Outer Realm, there was nothing Du Gang could do, so he stayed in Misty City.

As new phenomena appeared, the previously cleared Misty City began to be covered with a thin layer of fog.

However, this layer of fog was very sparse and hardly affected visibility. When more phenomena appear in the future, it might return to the fog-covered state of before.

"Oh? Why are you here... what happened here??" Julie’s voice came from behind Du Gang.

Julie, dressed in an exotic outfit, was puzzled. She had only been gone for about half a month, right? How did the Misty City World look like it had been reshaped?

"Go find out for yourself, it’s too complicated to explain," Du Gang shook his head, choosing not to explain. The time spent explaining would be enough for Julie to see it dozens of times through a computer.

"Alright then," Julie blinked her eyes. Zheng Yichen had provided her with an Illusory Eye, and upon arriving here, her internet connection was automatically established.

Through the Illusory Eye, she could access information that ordinary people couldn’t find.

In a short amount of time, together with Tongyue, she figured out what had happened here.

Especially when she learned that the heart-core planet of the Misty City World had become as large as the sun, Julie couldn’t help but jump a little, which looked youthful and cute, but those who knew her true identity thought otherwise.

This woman was a Curse Master; a slight touch without her consent could result in being afflicted by a deadly curse.

"The world has caught the eye of a Boundary Breaker. What kind of new version of Breakworld is this?" Julie pondered for a while and then looked at Du Gang. Du Gang had evidently been here for some time and knew more than she did.

"I don’t know, but if it’s a new type of Breakworld, it’s bound to be troublesome," Du Gang shook his head. This was also why he hoped Zheng Yichen would take on the Twilight Mission.

The new type of Breakworld was generally a killer at first sight. The ways of Dusk’s Breakworlds weren’t monotonous. However, with enough experiences, most of them had some traces to follow.

But in such cases, no Proxy Agent had seen it before. Zheng Yichen, being a local Proxy Agent of this world, would be terribly passive if something were to happen.

It would be best to undertake other Twilight Missions while having someone look over here. When something happens, it would depend on Dusk’s arrangements.

At that time, if Zheng Yichen could speed up his mission, he might be able to return early.

Having Dusk arrange the appropriate Proxy Agent comes with the biggest advantage of ’suitability.’ Proxy Agents sent here might not perfectly resolve the world’s crisis but would certainly have the conditions to do so.

There wouldn’t be a situation where a Proxy Agent proficient in close combat is sent to resolve a world of magic problem unless that world of magic had extremely high levels of strength as well.

Just in such a world, where the aspect of strength hasn’t been developed, such a Proxy Agent going over would instantly become invincible, naturally immune to magic.

In a world dominated by powerful mages, a superhuman with maxed magical resistance goes over, isn’t that like slaughtering chickens? That’s what’s suitable.

So, as long as Zheng Yichen is not in this world, when something happens here, when Dusk arranges Proxy Agents, it won’t be based on ’proximity.’ Instead, it will choose a suitable Proxy Agent to come here.

At that time, analyzing the preferred type of power of the Proxy Agent will determine what type of Breakworld this is, making the response easier.

Du Gang knew Zheng Yichen was an all-around presence. But precisely because he was too versatile, able to deal with anything, it made it hard for him to determine the type of mission at first glance.

Like just mentioned, in a world of magic needing a superhuman with max magic resistance to wreak havoc, if someone like him went, he would just activate his Vajra Body.

And given the world’s environment, Du Gang soon understood what Dusk’s arrangements meant, as his type was to use a solid body in combat.

But sending Zheng Yichen to such a world?

In terms of physical fitness, Zheng Yichen was top-notch. In ’magic’ output, Zheng Yichen was also not bad. Electronic warfare? Zheng Yichen had the Firmament Paper Wheel and AI Lilith...

Sending him to a high-tech magical world, he himself was overly versatile. How, at the initial acquisition of intelligence, could he analyze the general direction?

Solving problems still requires contacting the root cause of the problem before sifting through possibilities to find the accurate part.

All-around agents don’t have the filter advantage provided by Dusk.

Thus, a bit of cunning is appropriate, letting other Proxy Agents help with the filtering is just right.

Though... doing so is somewhat unscrupulous, but Zheng Yichen has good stuff, and the Chaotic Sea Water is hard for even strong people to refuse.

While Du Gang and Julie were communicating, the Spring that Zheng Yichen had set up had even longer queues forming.

The change in the heart-core planet of the Misty City World, coupled with the information dissemination from the Dusk Mercenary Group, attracted more Dusk mercenaries to join in the fun over here.

The main attraction was still the Spring set up by Zheng Yichen.

Unfortunately, Zheng Yichen seemed not to catch his hint and was still adamant about figuring it out himself, though his charm was quite high.

Du Gang remembered very clearly that after completing the Extermination Order, he only exchanged contact storage cabinets with other Proxy Agents. Unlike Zheng Yichen, where quite a few opposite-sex Proxy Agents wanted to come over.

Same-sex Proxy Agents... well, even Life type Proxy Agents wanted to.

"A new type of Breakworld, huh? I’ll have to take a good look, hoping it appears before the Twilight Mission arrives, or at least later," Julie, upon hearing this, seemed very interested.

Du Gang said nothing more. Regardless of whether the Proxy Agents were interested in Zheng Yichen for his charm, at critical times, they were ’steadfast’ allies.
