Monsters Are Coming

Ye Ming's figure tore through the sky like black lightning and crashed in the center of Mist Conceal Island.

"Activate the Space Interference Array!"

Its voice, carrying divine power, exploded above the entire island.

Though the waiting Elder Council didn't understand what was happening, they resolutely dispersed to the array eye positions on the island.

Skeletal hands simultaneously pressed down on the reef etched with ancient runes.

As obscure spells echoed, the sea around Mist Conceal Island began to flow backward, forming a vortex barrier enveloping the entire island.

Immediately, the space in the area around the island began to become chaotic.

"General, the array has been activated."

The leading elder bowed in the direction where Ye Ming was hovering:

Ye Ming floated above the black palace in the center of the island, its black robe fluttering in the chaotic spatial fluctuations.

It looked up in the direction of Dream Island, icy war intent flickering in its soul fire:

"Very well, let me see how the Gold Coin Chamber of Commerce will send in the rule fragments."

From previous encounters, it knew that the Gold Coin Chamber of Commerce mastered space jump abilities, able to easily traverse long distances directly into Mist Conceal Island.

But now, it had activated the space chaos array.

This array was a technology it developed specifically to counter space jump attacks.

In Monster World, there are too many races that master space technology, coupled with abundant space department resource production, they can easily create space jump channels.

Many powerhouses also master the ability to tear space themselves.

The sudden assault of such abilities is difficult to prevent.

They can ignore terrain barriers, bypass all conventional defenses, and forcibly break through any physical barriers, directly targeting the core.

Traditional city walls, barriers, and patrol armies are meaningless in the face of space jumps.

But the Space Interference Array is different.

When the array is fully activated, the twelve Ming Pillars around the island will release Mingwu Particles, which weave an invisible net of turbulence around the island.

Any space jump action essentially folds a temporary channel in the real dimension, and the Mingwu Particles act like grit infiltrating gears, forcibly jamming this delicate dimension folding process.

Furthermore, the array continuously emits space ripples, like continually throwing stones into a calm lake, keeping the spatial coordinates of the entire area in a state of high-frequency vibration.

Even if one breaks through the first layer of interference, the transmission landing point will suffer severe deviation due to coordinate chaos.

It is highly likely to be sent to the Void World.

Now, the entire Mist Conceal Island is like being wrapped in a constantly twisting and deforming spatial bubble.

It wanted to see how the Gold Coin Chamber of Commerce would break through this location that even Divine Realm powerhouses find difficult to lock onto precisely.

...

Dream Island.

Ah Lan sat in the auction venue, editing a forum post.

The auction had ended, the representatives of various races had left, and members of the Gold Coin Chamber of Commerce were now tidily cleaning up the venue's trash.

Most of the trash they dealt with were exhausted crystal shells and spirit fruit cores left from the banquet, among other things.

These trash, members of the Gold Coin Chamber of Commerce would toss into the sea.

The crystal shells sinking to the seabed would become nutrients for the coral reefs, and the spirit fruit cores would be snatched up as snacks by passing small sea beasts and spirit fish, causing no pollution.

While offering them to Brother Di Zhao would be more convenient, completely skipping the transportation stage,

Ah Lan believed these trash held intrinsic value.

The exhausted crystal shells, after sinking to the seabed, would gradually release residual gentle spiritual power, which is coral polyps' favorite nourishment, encouraging them to secrete lime more rapidly. Scattered spirit fruit cores would attract swarms of small sea beasts and spirit fish, with their consumption of the cores and resulting excretions serving as the perfect organic fertilizer for the coral reefs.

Feeding this trash to the sea would bring more tradeable land for the Gold Coin Chamber of Commerce in the future.

The time for trash to cultivate reefs might be lengthy.

But as a player, Ah Lan knew that his lifespan was no longer measurable by a physical body's lifetime.

He had plenty of time to lay out the future.

At this moment, the post was completed, and he hit send.

This bet with Ye Ming had a one hundred percent chance of success.

He was certain that Ye Ming had agreed, knowing it possessed space interference means.

Furthermore, Ye Ming would soon set up defenses around Dream Island's seas, ensuring players found it difficult to leave Dream Island.

Even Mist Conceal Island was heavily guarded; not even a mosquito could fly in.

But in his hand was a rule-level "location transmission", having already placed multiple positioning coordinates on Mist Conceal Island back then, capable of crossing space at any time.

So-called space interference technology could not defend against the penetration of rule-level power.

Victory in the bet could be secured in minutes.

However, merely winning was far from enough in Ah Lan's view.

He actively approached Ye Ming for this bet not just to show Gold Coin Chamber of Commerce's abilities to Ye Ming.

It was also to kickstart a recruitment plan.

Now, the Gold Coin Chamber of Commerce was thriving, but the number of players handling delivery services was not increasing.

Most were newbies who came for a while, then decisively quit to pursue other gameplay styles.

The group that maintained the most stable number of delivery personnel were the Fishing Faction Players.

This group was accustomed to drifting at sea, often fishing for dozens of hours, with some so obsessed they stayed fishing for days without logging off.

To them, the Gold Coin Chamber of Commerce's delivery tasks were simply an additional source of sacrificial power revenue along the way.
