Chapter 1312: Buffer Zone_1
Andrew Wilson said, "When entering the Mortal Realm, people don’t just step right in; there exists a Buffer Zone."
"Buffer Zone?"
"Yes, it’s a special area. Many people, after entering it, dare not fully commit right away. They stay there, watching, until they can no longer remain, before finally entering. The intelligence we have about that place comes from the Buffer Zone."
"What exactly is the Buffer Zone, and do they interfere with the development of the Mortal Realm?" Peter Brown asked, perplexed.
Shaking his head, Andrew Wilson said, "The power of Heavenly Will is so great, how could they possibly interfere? Even the strongest among them can’t manage it. However, because there are so many people staying in the Buffer Zone, it has essentially become a living area. There’s a lot of strife there too. Yet, the fate of those who die is not that bad; they simply enter the Mortal Realm."
"If that’s the case, could a large number of people retain their consciousness upon entering?"
"That I don’t know for sure. Generally, there shouldn’t be many who retain their consciousness, but there are exceptions. Some Great Powers might enter with some awareness. However, you shouldn’t dream of such good fortune. Even if they retain consciousness, the places they enter vary greatly; it could be this world, another parallel one, or a different time altogether—it’s random."
"Do you plan to stay in the Buffer Zone after you enter?" Peter asked.
After pondering for a moment, Andrew Wilson said, "It’s hard to say. I’m wondering why so many people linger in the Buffer Zone and are reluctant to enter. Is there something within the Buffer Zone that everyone desires?"
