I Am Also An Extraordinary Creature

Chapter 1618 - 1145: Who Is Truly Extreme?

"The biggest problem is that we don’t know what the Boundary Breaking Organization will do next." Zheng Yichen also knew that taking the initiative wasn’t a good choice, but there was no other way.

He didn’t think the Boundary Breaking Organization would suddenly reform and want the Misty City World to return to normal.

This is a conspiracy of the Boundary Breaking Organization. Isn’t the Boundary Breaking Organization’s activity all about plundering worlds? The Great World is so special; can the Boundary Breaking Organization not be tempted upon discovering it?

Actions speak louder than words, and being balanced instead becomes a unique safeguard of the Misty City World.

If the Boundary Breaking Organization dares to swallow the Misty City World, their base will explode. However, once they eliminate the balance, swallowing the Misty City World will still leave the Great World of the Boundary Breaking Organization intact.

Zheng Yichen had previously encountered a situation of forced Breakworld, so he wasn’t optimistic about the events to follow.

The world itself is already in peril, and a Breakworld of this sort could happen at any time, so he thought it might be better to act proactively.

"If the Boundary Breaking Organization’s methods were out in the open, I wouldn’t be so aggressive. Do you think it’s possible for a Boundary Breaker to directly force a Breakworld?"

Wu Lingluo thought for a moment and said, "The possibility you mentioned also exists. If the stakes are high enough, there’s nothing that can’t happen; it just depends on whether they’re willing to pay the price."

As a Proxy Agent who had lived for a long time, Wu Lingluo was more knowledgeable and experienced. Although she had never encountered forced Breakworld, she had experienced many other strange things.

On her time scale, many methods of the Boundary Breakers hadn’t changed for decades, yet their success rate in Breakworld remained consistently high.

"Being proactive isn’t wrong, but you’re being a bit too proactive."

Wu Lingluo supported taking the initiative to break the game, but she held a similar opinion as Du Gang regarding Zheng Yichen’s approach, feeling it was too extreme.

If Zheng Yichen were a bit more conservative, she might have thought it was better.

Ultimately, it was because their understanding of the Great World was still not comprehensive enough. With a thorough understanding, Zheng Yichen’s ’initiative’ would be more feasible.

"It’s okay to go and have a look. What I’m most worried about now is that once we’re tasked by Dusk, the Boundary Breaking Organization will act immediately. There must be Boundary Breakers’ eyes here."

"Then let’s find them," Wu Lingluo said with a smile, "I have a Dream Soul Search technique that can cover the entire Misty City. With this, we should be able to find the hidden targets."

Her proposal made Zheng Yichen want to roll his eyes even more, as such terrifying words were said as if jokingly. If Zheng Yichen agreed to Wu Lingluo’s suggestion, the entire Misty City would soon become a deathtrap.

Julie agreed, "I think this method is not bad. Sacrificing a city in exchange for a more stable future."

"Are all of you this extreme?" Zheng Yichen couldn’t help but rub his forehead. He found that even Du Gang seemed somewhat supportive, which seemed very extreme, didn’t it?

"It’s not extreme, but there’s more meaning in doing this than giving up the few to save the many."

Wu Lingluo’s expression was solemn. Giving up a few to save the many often seemed fine, but in reality, it was a compromise. Once you compromise once, there’d be a second time.

If there’s the capability to solve the problem completely, there’s no need to do something like giving up the few.

Currently, they don’t have the ability to completely solve the problem, so her proposal was also a way to seize the initiative—by actively sacrificing Misty City to gain useful intelligence to prevent the Boundary Breaking Organization from achieving their goals.

This is not just for the Misty City World but for many more worlds.

The Boundary Breakers’ goal is certainly the Breakworld, in which case, how many people die in the process isn’t important; what matters is whether they can plunder this world.

If the Great World acquired the characteristics of the Misty City World, it would become easier for the Great World to invade in the future.

They could use Phenomenon in a perfectly legitimate way to send anything that can crush that world over there. Reaching this point, the success rate of Boundary Breakers’ BreakingWorld is far more than just doubled.

The Boundary Breakers’ purpose is quite clear: if not for Breakworld, why go through all this trouble?

But now what they need to know isn’t the purpose but how the Boundary Breakers will act.

"Is there a possibility they’ve already succeeded in BreakingWorld?" Tongyue suddenly said.

Wu Lingluo was silent for a moment, then nodded: "That’s a possibility too, but what about Dusk?"

A world won’t have two Dusk Territories. The local Dusk hasn’t disappeared. Even if it’s possible the Dusk of the Great World was replaced, this matter is yet to be confirmed.

Wait, if based on this assumption, Zheng Yichen’s proposal is actually more necessary to execute.

"Going to the Great World is okay, but it’s best not to be too rash. Actually, I have a better suggestion."

"As long as it’s not that extreme," Zheng Yichen was already a bit numb to Wu Lingluo’s suggestions. Casually intending to take the lives of everyone in Misty City... he dared not imagine a better suggestion.

"You’re still too young." Seeing Zheng Yichen’s somewhat cautious reaction, Wu Lingluo had the look of someone who’s been through it all: "To make the Boundary Breakers fail, many sacrifices are acceptable. My soul search can let those people end in a beautiful dream."

Dream Soul Search, as its name implies, follows the opposite approach to normal soul searches. A usual soul search would cause the subject intense pain, and most would become comatose afterward.

The few with strong wills could maintain normalcy, but their souls would suffer severe damage, making recovery difficult afterward.

But Dream Soul Search doesn’t let the searched endure pain; instead, it keeps them in an ideal dream, and it extracts information more completely!

"Let’s not talk about soul searching for now."

Wu Lingluo directly mentioned her better proposal.

"Then let’s wait. Wait for you to accept a new task from Dusk, and then call us over to help solve the task as quickly as possible.

Before that, I’ll use Illusion Change to disguise myself as you, replacing your activities in Misty City. Even if the Misty City has Boundary Breakers’ spies, they won’t be able to extend their reach into Dusk.

This way, even if you accept Dusk’s task, you can buy a lot of time, making it difficult for the Boundary Breaking Organization to determine when you start executing the task."

"... So normal?" Zheng Yichen was surprised. Not long ago, Wu Lingluo’s proposal was too extreme, and now, after suggesting a better and more normal proposal, it made Zheng Yichen a bit unaccustomed.

"This method seems like a compromising choice to me," Wu Lingluo said casually. Her proposal seemed like a better way to Zheng Yichen, yet it had too many uncertainties.

Rather than doing that, they could perform a citywide soul search to grasp all intel on hand since the Boundary Breakers’ spies wouldn’t know a small amount of intel.

They only need some intelligence and could proceed with tracking down following leads.
