Chapter 1048 -434: World Dungeon Begins_2

The two met in the Management Bureau’s conference room, with attendees including Shi Ning besides Hou Jingchuan.

Wu Chang sat opposite Hou Jingchuan, and he could tell that the other had been resting poorly recently, with a face full of fatigue and anxiety.

However, seeing Wu Chang’s return, the anxiety in Hou Jingchuan’s eyes visibly calmed down.

Wu Chang knew what news Hou Jingchuan was waiting for, and without keeping him in suspense, he said directly:

“Mission accomplished, the Faith Virus has been successfully placed.”

Seeing Wu Chang appear, Hou Jingchuan had already guessed the answer, but hearing Wu Chang personally confirm it still made him relax completely.

He leaned back in his chair, looking up at the ceiling, and took a deep breath.

This “undignified” action is rare for someone of Hou Jingchuan’s Level of authority.

“Lord Peace, I knew you would succeed!”

He said this sincerely, as the hope of the Desolate Realm was entirely pinned on Wu Chang, and even if he doubted, he had to strongly believe.

Wu Chang synced up the progress with Hou Jingchuan, and then took out the Divine Rune Decipherer from his personal Space and returned it to Shi Ning.

The Divine Rune Decipherer is powerful, and if possible, he wanted to keep it for personal use.

But Shi Ning needed the Divine Rune Decipherer body to receive messages from sub-devices and thus judge the actions of the Bright Society, so he could only return it.

After the World Dungeon ends, given his relationship with the Order Sect, asking Shi Ning to help him make a Divine Rune Decipherer or to simply open a small class teaching Mysticism might not be too much to ask.

At that time, he must ask what Level Shi Ning’s Mysticism is and how he mastered it in the Desolate Realm.

Sigh, why does this question sound so familiar, hasn’t it appeared somewhere before?

He seemingly just asked He Yi the same question format.

Shi Ning’s answer shouldn’t be like He Yi’s, saying that just a glance and you get it, making a Divine Rune Decipherer is easy, and he never systematically learned it, right?

Shi Ning took the Divine Rune Decipherer, closed his eyes to sense for a moment, and then seemed to understand everything, saying:

“The sub-device is closer to the ritual site than I imagined; you did very well.”

Wu Chang asked, “Professor Shi, aren’t you afraid of being discovered by the Bright Society when you gather the Realm of Reason’s information in the Desolate Realm?”

Shi Ning’s technique is strong, but the Bright Society is not to be trifled with, as there are also masters skilled in this field.

For instance, when he and He Yun seized the Divine Hall of Death, they encountered someone who could control the network, maintaining control over the Divine Hall of Death even across private Space.

Shi Ning said carelessly, “If they were truly at that Level, the Hunter couldn’t have infiltrated nearby the first time and captured images of the ritual.”

Shi Ning spoke the most arrogant words in the most casual tone; his voice lacked emotion, but Wu Chang could hear that he didn’t respect the force of the Bright Society’s restrictions and was not worried that his actions would be discovered.

If someone else said this, Wu Chang would surely think they were naive and unaware of the Bright Society’s methods.

But with Shi Ning as a Wanderer, Wu Chang couldn’t comment otherwise because Shi Ning truly had ability.

Seeing Shi Ning present, Wu Chang smoothly took out his phone and played the Bronze Tree he filmed in the Immortal Residence Forest.

Regarding the existence of the Bronze Tree, he consulted the All-Knowing Crystal, but its answer was simple, saying it was merely a pure energy storage device with no other meaning.

As for the items within the tree canopy cradle, the All-Knowing Crystal said they were not yet formed, and it couldn’t see clearly.

But it could see that the things nurtured within the cradle are extremely dangerous, potentially causing disasters affecting the World, or perhaps stirring nothing.

The All-Knowing Crystal’s evaluation of the Bronze Tree, aside from being extremely dangerous, offered no other reference.

This wasn’t difficult to understand, as Wu Chang had long discovered that the All-Knowing Crystal’s omniscience wasn’t true omniscience, but rather the most accurate deductions based on existing clues.

If deductions can’t determine what’s inside, he could only try to resolve it with experience.

“Mr. Hou, Professor Shi, we found this Bronze Tree near the Bright Society’s ritual site. It has absorbed a large amount of Power of Faith, with the internal Power of Faith being so immense as to be inconceivable; maybe you know what it is.”

Hou Jingchuan looked at it briefly and then helplessly glanced at Shi Ning, waiting for Shi Ning’s answer.

Wu Chang thought he might provide an answer, which reflected Wu Chang’s regard for him. Unfortunately, the video content was too far from the Desolate Realm; he was just an ordinary Desolate Realm Administration Bureau manager, and Divinity and Power of Faith were beyond him.

Shi Ning observed a bit longer; he couldn’t give a specific answer, but he had some speculation about the Bronze Tree, saying:

“This Bronze Tree is merely an energy transition facility; it itself is nothing special. Maybe you can start with anomalies in the World Dungeon; mobilizing such a Level of energy isn’t simple and must be pre-arranged for coordination.”

“If you can find who within the Dungeon Plane is closest to the Bright Society and received the most benefits, the arrangement within the Bronze Tree is likely related to him.”

Wu Chang’s brow slightly arched; Shi Ning’s analysis made him recall the mysterious figure communicating with Mercury on the stone altar.

Perhaps finding that person could lead to clues about the Bronze Tree.

Twelve hours before the World Dungeon started, Wu Chang’s body returned to reality, appearing in Wanghai City.
