Ge Zi, Chen Tian looked at the pigeon in front of him. The pigeon then woke up and said, "Chen Tian, is it over?"
"It's over. Pigeon, I'm leaving. I look forward to seeing you again, or in the game."
"Okay!"
The pigeon could see that Chen Tian had something on his mind, and he didn't want to pry. Then Chen Tian's figure flashed with light and disappeared before the pigeon. Long Lie Tian looked at himself, then began to heal his injuries, and headed towards the fortress.
By this time, the war at the fortress had ended. During the war, all the mutated creatures had exploded. For some reason, the remaining general-level leaders were also killed one by one by the combined efforts of other cultivators and Martial Gods.
Long Lie Tian appeared above the fortress and said, "After the battle, there will be no major offensive for the time being, but do not let your guard down. Defend the fortress as usual!"
"Yes!"
With renewed vigor, Long Lie Tian and a group of high-level officials headed to the conference room.
This war ended just like that.
Chen Tian's figure slowly appeared outside a door. He slowly opened it, and a figure immediately threw herself into Chen Tian's arms. Qing Ling said with her face buried in his chest, "Welcome back, brother!"
Chen Tian stroked Qing Ling's head and said, "Alright! You're not that young anymore, but you can stay for a while longer if you like."
Chen Tian then took out his phone and made a call. The ringing continued until the other end answered with an impatient roar, "Who is it! Who's calling in the middle of the night? Are you looking for death? Speak quickly if you have something to say!"
"Um, Principal, it's Chen Tian!"
"Ah! Chen Tian! Is there something you need?"
"It's like this, Principal. I'd like to request a few months of long leave. Please issue me a certificate for a few months."
"Chen Tian, you've been on leave for four years. You took leave four years ago and now you're back at school for less than half a year, and you want to take leave again. You... I've never seen a student like you. You haven't attended a single class or taken a single exam in four years, and now you want to take leave. Do you really not care about your studies anymore? Where else can you find a student who is eighteen or nineteen years old and still in the first year of high school?"
"I know, Principal, but I really have an urgent matter! If you don't agree, I'll have my sister talk to you!"
"Alright, alright, my young master! Your sister is such a doting demon, I wouldn't dare to provoke her. I'll grant you the leave, okay? How long will it be? The final exams are in three months. Don't tell me you won't come back then. At least finish your first-year studies, okay?"
Chen Tian said, "Okay, it'll be three months! I'll take the exam then."
"I really don't know what you're so busy with. You've been busy for four years, and now you still have to be busy. Forget it, I can't control you anyway. Who told you to come from a big family?"
The call then ended. Chen Tian could hear the Principal's dissatisfaction. He had taken leave four years ago, and it had lasted for four years. This was because Chen Tian had been competing in professional matches, spending four years building teams, establishing a company, and entering the professional gaming circuit.
The professional gaming circuit doesn't last long. While he was young, around fifteen or sixteen years old, he had impulsively decided to create a team with friends and win the world championship.
Now, Chen Tian was taking leave for an even more important matter: saving the world. Only by leveling up in the game could his memories and fusion progress be accelerated. Time was running out, and now there were variables. Chen Tian didn't want to delay any further.
Moreover, he had already fused with the memories of two world origins, and Chen Tian understood his mission.
Then he looked at Qing Ling and said, "Alright, little sister, you should let go now. Come, brother will take you to play games."
"Yay!"
"Let's go, brother!"
Then Chen Tian and Qing Ling's figures returned to their room. In the Time Epoch, in the center of Springless City, Chen Tian's figure slowly appeared.
Chen Tian looked at his panel and said, "Indeed, only by accelerating the character's progression can I speed up the fusion process. I'm level sixty now, only fifteen levels away from the level cap. After restoring the second world, I'll restore the third as well. Then, when I go to the fourth layer, I can observe the seal."
Chen Tian looked at the city in front of him and slowly walked out of the city gate. Then a group of players surrounded Chen Tian. Chen Tian looked at the players around him and said, "Is something wrong?"
These players, numbering over a dozen, all had names with the prefix "Han Tian," indicating they were from a guild, and they were all level fifty players.
Chen Tian was simply surprised. When had there been so many level fifty players in the second world?
Then he remembered something and patted his head. He had forgotten that all the players had participated in the battle of Time Epoch City and had received experience rewards, which was why their levels had increased so much.
A player with the name Han Tian Han slowly walked out and looked at Chen Tian, saying, "Hand over all your weapons, equipment, and materials, or we will take them by force."
"How domineering. Are you guys just going to rob me?"
"Kid, if you have anyone to blame, it's yourself for not knowing how to keep a low profile. Hand over that pair of swords and all your equipment. This area has been sealed by a special item. Even if you die, you'll respawn at the same spot. Then, we'll each take a swing, and your equipment will be dropped one by one."
"Oh! So you were waiting for me here. You've been waiting for quite a while, haven't you? Thank you for your trouble, but I don't intend to give it to you."
"Han Tian Guild, a branch of Han Ying Guild? It so happens that I have some ties with the Han Ying Guild, so I won't hold back when we fight."
Chen Tian coldly looked at all the players in front of him. Instantly, all the players felt as if they had fallen into an ice cave, a chilling sensation.
Chen Tian said, "Attack!"
"Go!"
The players of the Han Tian Guild rushed towards Chen Tian. Various weapons were drawn, and mages behind them cast spells, forming magic arrays that enveloped Chen Tian. Chen Tian simply stood in place. Then, with a boom, an explosion sounded. All the attacks turned into fragments. Weapons and fists struck Chen Tian. In front of Chen Tian, the Divine Ice and Divine Fire shields intertwined. All attacks were unable to advance even half an inch before the shields.
Then Chen Tian's eyes opened, and nine-colored wings suddenly unfurled behind him. Under the radiance, the players around Chen Tian all turned into starlight and floated towards the sky. However, a barrier appeared, and the dead players instantly revived at their original positions.
Chen Tian soared high into the sky, and the nine-colored wings illuminated the entire sky. Then the barrier shattered, and all the players turned into starlight.
Chen Tian's figure landed on the ground, disdainfully saying, "I have now fused with 2% of the progress. In the game, you are simply courting death."
Then, a spatial vortex slowly appeared before Chen Tian's eyes. The game world was an evolution from the Divine Realm, and as the God Lord, Chen Tian could naturally awaken his powers here.
According to the contract, Chen Tian from the two worlds each controlled half of the power and origin. At the same time, when the fusion reached its peak, the God Lord of the Divine Realm would disappear, and the Earth's Chen Tian would become the master of both worlds.
However, Chen Tian's fusion progress was too low. He needed to increase his level to accelerate the fusion. To increase the fusion progress, he needed to adapt to the origin of the Divine Realm. The Time Epoch game world was one of the ninety-nine worlds derived from the Divine Realm.
Therefore, the longer players played here, the better their level and adaptation would be.
Chen Tian was no exception. The two different origins needed continuous adaptation to fuse.
Chen Tian slowly stepped into the space. Now, Chen Tian could directly travel to the next city without needing a teleportation array. Due to the low fusion progress, the distance could not be too far.
Spring Explosion City. At this moment, Chen Tian slowly emerged from the teleportation gate and said, "Where is Qing Ling? Where did she go?"
Then he opened his friend list and instantly found Qing Ling's information. He didn't pay much attention to it afterward. Chen Tian knew what was happening.
Then Chen Tian suddenly sensed a presence and said, "There's a presence of evil spirits in the Winter Kingdom. What's going on? What happened? There are no seals in the second world, so how can there be evil spirits?"
Chen Tian was confused. However, despite his confusion, Chen Tian decided to put down his current task and head to the Winter Kingdom. The appearance of evil spirits meant that the world was about to fall into chaos, and without Chen Tian, it would be impossible to stop.
