Chapter 2483  Internal Mission

At this moment, Fang Heng had just returned to the elevator.

A few minutes earlier, accompanied by Zheng Zheyu, he had visited the closed training room to give a lesson to an opponent who was still deep in training, unaware of the changed circumstances outside. He forced the opponent to surrender and also drained his personal points.

With that, Fang Heng’s ranking in the arena began to climb rapidly once again.

“Ding-dong!”

Fang Heng felt his pad vibrate.

He opened it to find a new hint notification displayed on the screen.

“Trial participant, your trial points have reached the required level. Congratulations on advancing to SS-rank competitor. Your world’s invitation card has been upgraded to SS-rank. Your guest room has been relocated to Floor 77, Room 08.”

The efficiency was quite impressive.

Fang Heng glanced at the game notification.

“Ding-dong!”

Hmm?

Before he could close it, the pad vibrated again, displaying a new red push notification.

“White Abyss Arena is recruiting arena maintenance personnel.”

Recruiting maintenance personnel?

What on earth?

Fang Heng’s curiosity was piqued as he tapped the screen to view more details.

The notification appeared to be a special mission issued by the White Abyss Arena. Competitors interested in participating could apply within the next two hours. Successfully completing the mission would earn them corresponding reward points, though specific details about the mission were sparse.

Notably, the mission description emphasized a strict prohibition on infighting during the task.

Fang Heng glanced at Zheng Zheyu beside him and asked, “What’s this push notification about?”

Zheng Zheyu leaned over to look at the information on Fang Heng’s pad and shuddered slightly. He explained, “This is a related task offered by the White Abyss Arena. I’ve heard that the rewards are quite generous, but it’s also extremely dangerous.”

“I’m not clear on the specifics of the mission myself, as very few people have disclosed details. From what I’ve heard, participants are taken with the Overseers to the lower sealed areas of the White Abyss Arena to assist in sealing some monsters.”

“I’ve seen many people who ventured into such missions never return.”

Zheng Zheyu, who was cautious by nature, felt that this mission was too risky for someone like him. “But many people still participate every time. I’ve heard that completing it can earn you enough points for a year. Many are eager to improve their strength and are willing to take the risk.”

Fang Heng thoughtfully stroked his chin, a contemplative look in his eyes. “You mentioned something about a seal?”

“Huh?”

Zheng Zheyu was momentarily puzzled, then nodded and said, “Yes, I heard that the mission is related to some kind of seal.”

A seal…

Could it be related to the demonic seed of Jealousy sealing other demonic seeds?

If that’s the case, it’s definitely worth investigating further.

Seizing the opportunity while Jealousy is absent, it might be possible to uncover clues on how to deal with Jealousy.

Register!

Fang Heng tapped a few times on his pad and completed the registration.

“You have successfully registered. The operation will officially begin at 8:00 pm tonight. Please assemble at the underground hall by 7:30 pm.”

Seeing Fang Heng so effortlessly taking on the mission, Zheng Zheyu couldn’t help but shrink his neck, feeling a bit anxious.

The big shot was really fearless.

Fortunately, the big shot didn’t pressure him into taking on the mission as well.

“Let’s go, we’ve got debts to collect!”

Fang Heng glanced at Zheng Zheyu, and with some time left before the mission, decided to first level up to the rank of SSS, then figure out how to claim the dimensional core fragments.

…

In the library, Simone continued to delve into the books in search of information.

Absorbed entirely in the research, Simone lost track of time.

“Ugh…”

There weren’t many records on the demonic seeds, and after flipping through two books consecutively, Simone let out a faint sigh.

The more he learned about the eternal disaster, the bleaker his hope seemed.

He noticed his pad lighting up several times out of the corner of his eye, which made him feel a bit irritated. He reached for the pad and checked the notifications.

“Congratulations, your team’s competitor level has been upgraded to SSS.”

What was going on?

Simone was momentarily stunned, wondering if he had read the notification incorrectly. His heart raced as he quickly brought the pad closer for a detailed look.

It was true!

In just a few hours, Fang Heng had fought 86 battles, each ending with his opponent surrendering beforehand.

Simone jumped out of his chair.

According to the rules of the White Abyss Arena, he had now met the criteria to request a meeting with the Master of the Arena.

His world might be saved!

“Halfling! I need to see the Master of the White Abyss Arena immediately.”

The halfling, who had been waiting nearby, approached upon hearing the request.

“I’m sorry, esteemed competitor, but the Master is currently not at the Tower of the White Abyss. We have recorded your request and will arrange a meeting with you as soon as the Master returns.”

Simone clenched his fists and urged, “When will the Master be back? My world cannot wait that long!”

“It’s estimated to take another three days. If you’re in a hurry, we can arrange a meeting with the supervisors on the 80th floor in advance. The supervisors will have a certain level of authority when the master is not around. With the knowledge of the supervisors, they should be able to help you solve the problem.”

“Help me arrange it as soon as possible!”

“Right, and Fang Bai.”

Reaching SSS-level and the world boundary so quickly was all thanks to Mr. Fang’s help!

Simone thought of Fang Bai and asked, “What about Mr. Fang?”

“Fang Bai was currently on the 2nd-layer arena platform. However, he was scheduled to participate in an arena mission starting at 8:30. He should have been heading to the underground hall gathering point. Coincidentally, the three Chief Overseers would also be there, so you could find them there.”

A mission?

Simone was momentarily surprised. The White Abyss Arena had missions?

It didn’t matter.

With both Fang Heng and the Overseers there, he needed to go over and inquire about the situation.

Simone lost interest in continuing his research, stood up, and said, “Let’s go. Take me there.”

“Sorry.”

The halfling showed an apologetic expression and shook his head. “The underground domain is a special area of the White Abyss Arena. You are not allowed to enter.”

“Why?” Simone asked urgently. “How are they getting in then?”

“Mr. Fang Bai is currently engaged in a mission and is in a mission state…”

“Then I’ll take that mission.”

“Understood. I will process the paperwork for you.”

The halfling tapped a few times on his pad and then respectfully nodded, “Respectable participant, please follow me.”

Simone stood up and hurriedly followed.

Meanwhile, Fang Heng was also on his way to the underground hall, riding the elevator.

After hunting down opponents and advancing to SSS-level just in time for the special mission gathering, he realized he had forgotten to check in with Bai Mu about the situation.

In Fang Heng’s mind, since Bai Mu knew about his situation, he would surely find a way to contact him in the game.
