My Salvation Game Became true?!

Chapter 117: Chapter 117 Mysterious Intelligence (1/3)
 

A thousand ghastly crystals meant that the detection range of the main map could be upgraded again.

This, in itself, would have taken the profits of the Eternal Flame to another level, not to mention the current situation where the Gates of the Ghastly Realm appeared irregularly, making people anxious, intensifying the need for the detection map to get a grasp of the situation.

Fang You returned to the resting area and solemnly took out his phone.

Displayed on the ghastly crystals was “1008.” Checking the records, Black Blade had just completed a three-star group task.

The number was just enough, but since Black Blade was still on a mission, there was no need to worry about the ghastly crystals being spent all at once upon upgrading.

He gently tapped.

The four-digit, not-yet-warm “heap of ghastly crystals” quietly evaporated.

In place of it came a not-so-crisp notification sound and the slowly expanding boundaries of the map.

This time, the upgrade lasted a full five hours. During this period, Fang You didn’t just wait; instead, he constantly adjusted his state.

There was only one chance to reach the third Awakening.

If he failed, whether it was state adjustment, self-recovery, or the accumulation of mystery, none of it could be done in a short time.

In the training area, Fang You swayed his sword, calming his restless heart gradually.

When it was about time, he let Xiao Huan bring up the game interface.

“Ding!”

“Notification: The current main map range has been upgraded to Level 5. Due to the coverage of ‘Yunling Anchor’ and ‘Baijiang Anchor,’ the two anchors are automatically reclaimed, ghastly crystals +60, remaining anchors deployable “3”.

The map interface unfolded.

The bright areas on the map had already enveloped much of Dong Huang, with only a few regions in the west and north remaining outside the map’s detection range.

And what was detected…

Xiao Huan thoughtfully compiled and summarized the general situation for him.

The focus, naturally, was on the Gates of the Ghastly Realm.

There were a total of six!

Not the four that had been discovered earlier!

In fact, on the map, there were actually seven spots marked with omens of the ‘Gates of the Ghastly Realm,’ but one had just shown the omen and would take another two to three days to open.

According to Xiao Huan’s analysis and judgment, there was a 99.9% chance it was unrelated to the other spots, as the countdowns for the others were precise to the second!

There was a problem, definitely a big problem!

“How many spots has the Investigation Bureau discovered?”

“It’s five, whoa, the Investigation Bureau conducted a major search yesterday and found another spot, but this Ghastly Realm Gate was not discovered by the bureau.”

She pointed to a region on the screen, a Gate of the Ghastly Realm located in Yunling State.

Of the six premonitory spots, two were in Yunling State, one next to Silver City, which was of higher danger, and the other in a deep mountain forest.

This mountain forest was also distinguished on the map with a special outline, labeled as ‘Polluted Zone·Medium.’

The only medium-level polluted area within the map’s range!

This place was still far from any city, and even if a Gate of the Ghastly Realm appeared and bred an Evil Tide, the hazard wouldn’t be nearly as great as the other five spots, but…

Appearing at the same time, the only secretive one was also in a polluted area.

And a polluted area could almost be called the Gate of Hell of the Ghastly Realm.

Instinct told him that this could be where the problem lay, but instinct alone wasn’t enough, and the other Ghastly Realm Gates couldn’t be ignored either.

“Remaining time: 13:25:59”

Fang You pondered.

This one polluted area was teeming with a vast number of Evil Tides; it was too much for Eternal Flame alone.

Currently, the Investigation Bureau was the largest entity.

He needed to let the Investigation Bureau know.

Choosing to act now was much easier and more covert than before.

Fang You spoke, “Xiao Huan, organize this information and secretly send it to the Investigation Headquarters.”

She nodded prettily, leaped lightly, and swiftly dove into the phone screen, disappearing from sight.

…

Investigation Bureau, Headquarters.

Underground Secret Hall.

One of the three deputy directors of the headquarters, Director Huang Huang Hongtian, strode into the room, “Has the national search confirmed that there are only these five Gates of Hell emerging simultaneously?”

“These Gates of Hell are all appearing near cities. If they aren’t discovered in advance, they could lead to immense disasters!”

He was also under great pressure, having hardly closed his eyes for the past several days.

But as of today, he couldn’t afford to go without sleep. He himself was an important combat force and had to remain in peak condition when the Ghastly Realm Gates opened.

But how could he possibly fall asleep!

“Old Huang, you should rest. We’ll need you even more for tomorrow’s battle. I’ll keep watch here,” said another deputy director, surnamed Liu.

He was in charge of the various affairs of the Investigation Bureau.

Compared to the often absent Director Tang and Deputy Director Huang, who would occasionally leave the office or be absorbed in weight training on the practice field, this man seemed more like the director.

It’s just that he was not an Awakener. Often when dealing with major disasters, Director Huang didn’t feel at ease.

“I’ll look a bit longer, then I’ll rest,” replied Huang.

“Any news from her?”

“Her…,” Director Liu said, “you know about her Ability. Active premonitions have many limitations; they’re not precise. Only the passive dream premonitions are the most accurate and magical. But she herself can’t be sure when such a premonition would occur.”

“After many predictions, she’s certain that the Gates of Hell related to this event number more than five; there’s a sixth one. However, she also can’t prophesy its exact location.”

Indeed, there was another one.

Director Huang had always felt something was amiss. The simultaneous emergence of five Ghastly Realm Gates seemed manipulated by a vast hidden force, but it was also too conspicuous, a constant source of unease.

The existence of a sixth made sense!

However,

Without the location of the sixth Gate of Hell, this prophecy was only half-complete.

Director Huang’s pressure increased.

Yet aside from ordering a continued search and preparing a team responsible for emergency interventions, there was nothing else he could do.

He had no choice but to return to his own quarters.

A great battle loomed tomorrow; he needed to force himself to rest now.

Suddenly,

Director Huang’s gaze sharpened, the patterns on his skin seeming to come alive. An intimidating pressure swept out in all directions, stirring up howling winds.

In front of him, his work laptop was aglow.

A map was continuously being zoomed in on, focusing on a remote mountain in the western part of Yunling State, marked with the words ‘Gate of Hell-6’.

“The location of the sixth Gate of Hell?!”

His eyes widened as he read the scrolling text on the screen, a tumultuous wave rising in his heart.

It might well be true!

Based on his experience, the reliability of the information was high.

Moreover, his work computer wasn’t connected to the internet at the moment. How was it hacked? Not even the top hackers could achieve that!

This was unscientific!

However, whether it was scientific or not was for someone else to determine. At this moment, Huang Hongtian wanted to know only about the situation concerning this sixth Gate of Hell.

“A contaminated area? The location closest to and deepest beneath reality?”

“Even the surrounding powerful Mysterious Evils have been scoped out?”

Director Huang couldn’t sit still any longer, foregoing rest, he hastily left with the computer.

However, he still harbored some doubts.

Where did this intelligence come from?
