The power of the tools they wield cannot spread into the real world.

The suppression and weakening of the rules of the present world are quite comprehensive.

"If this place doesn't work, we'll have to go to another world." The little white cat said worriedly, "Brother Fan Jin, won't it take too much time to search by relying on luck like this?"

"There's only one way to get through, so we have to go for it no matter what. Let's put the time issue aside for now. Besides..."

Fan Xiao said, "As you can see, the time in the present world and the work are different. It is dusk in the present world, but it is midnight here. Presumably, the time in other worlds is also in a different state."

"The flow of time in the material world and the formation world is likely to be different. Once we find our first outside helper, we can return to the present world to verify the time. If the flow of time in the formation world is faster than that in the material world, then... we will have plenty of time, and it doesn't matter if we waste a little."

“What if the material world moves faster than the formation world?” Xia Li asked.

“That depends on luck,” Fan Xiao said, shaking his head. “Hopefully our luck won’t be too bad.”

"Well... I don't think it's necessary to rush into verification."

White Cat then suggested, "Why don't we stay in the world of the story a little longer, and then go back after it becomes daytime in the real world? Once it's daytime, those villains won't be able to find us."

"Scared?" Fan Xiao looked at her.

"Yeah, I'm scared. After all, they're just demi-human players, very weak."

The little white cat said without any sense of propriety.

Fan Xiao knew that this girl pretending to be young had extremely abnormal sensory abilities, and she must have sensed a crisis that they in the real world could not handle.

The difficulty of this dungeon fluctuates, depending on the personality of the players entering it. If all the players are villains, the chances of them getting through the level with the custom character alone are extremely slim.

They're all doing just fine now, because this great philanthropist came in... well, no exaggeration.

Without his great personality and noble character as a foundation, Fan Xiaoxiao would not have been able to stand on their side.

Once Fan Xiaoxiao takes the opposing side, all other players will be killed by her remotely on the first night.

Who knows if a character of Fan Xiaoxiao's caliber still exists in the present world?

If so, how many exist?

It's an A-level psionic dungeon after all, and the disruptive crisis certainly won't be limited to Cinderella alone.

“The kitten’s concerns are not unfounded,” Xia Li sighed softly. “I didn’t expect the information that ‘killing us will grant us freedom’ would be exposed so quickly… I also agree to wait until daytime to go back. At this point, we can’t worry about wasting time.”

At this point, she looked at Fan Xiao and said, "The task of confirming the current timeline is now yours."

Of all those present, Fan Xiao was the strongest in both strength and survival skills.

The safest approach is for him to return to the mortal world multiple times to confirm the exact time.

Even if he were surrounded as soon as he went out, he could easily survive the one-minute cooldown of his interdimensional travel privileges and then escape safely with the help of the interdimensional travel pendant.

Fan Xiao nodded: "Don't worry, I would have done it even if you hadn't said anything."

Unfortunately, the props couldn't penetrate the real world; otherwise, he could know in real time whether it was day or night through his monocle.

A short while later, Beifeng finished his narration to the three men, including Feng Siman.

The four rejoined the group and came to Fan Xiao's side.

Fan Xiao looked at Feng Siman and the other two and asked, "Have you decided on your choice?"

“Alright,” Feng Siman said without the slightest hesitation, “I choose to stay in the world of the work! I’m not going to care about the evaluation of this instance anymore, it’s already this dangerous... I’m just happy to survive, I don’t ask for anything else.”

“Me too, let’s stay in the world of the story,” Wolf added.

Sharon, however, gave a different answer after the two: "Count me in to save the world."

"Okay." Fan Xiao nodded.

The fact that a cannibalistic player chose to embark on an adventure to save the world did not surprise anyone.

They had all read Sharon's works and knew that she was actually a good person who hadn't been corrupted by her identity as a cannibalistic player and hadn't given in to depravity.

Judging solely from the perspective of deducing from the work itself, Sharon is still trustworthy.

Fan Xiao looked at Feng Siman and Lang You: "The situation is urgent right now, and we don't have extra time to find a peaceful and safe world for you. You might as well stay in this world."

"The upper limit of supernatural power here is not high. Even if Telephone Mary is the most powerful bizarre disaster in this world, it will not pose much of a threat to you after your power is restored."

"What do you think?"

"can."

Von Smann nodded.

The wolf had no objections.

Under these circumstances, they cannot ask for too much.

After all, the situation didn't allow it.

Fan Xiao mobilized his mental power, and two condensed "winds of nothingness" blew out, enveloping the mental forms of Feng Siman and Lang You: "I have helped you conceal all your auras and greatly reduced your presence. This is all I can do now. Be careful."

“That’s enough,” Von Smann said sincerely. “This is extra help, thank you.”

His sincerity was only superficial; his heart was filled with greed—he desperately wanted the Transcendent Pendant!

This is a life-saving item that can be used to resolve a crisis!

Unfortunately... he knew he couldn't beat the other side, so he didn't try to steal it or resort to moral blackmail.

Just kidding! Moral blackmail works on A-level players?

On the other side, Wolf also expressed his gratitude—his attitude was much more sincere than Von Smann's.

Wolf felt a little ashamed that he couldn't fight Cinderella together.

However... his own life was definitely more important than other people's lives, and he did not regret his decision at that moment.

Fan Xiao, who schemed against the two, felt no shame whatsoever.

Yes, he was scheming.

His plan to survive by hiding in the world of the work was ultimately just a guess—he needed someone to help him verify the feasibility of this plan, as a way to leave himself an escape route.

He wasn't even sure if he would survive doing this.

Because it all depends on Cinderella's mood!

Cinderella definitely wants the players... that is, she wants outsiders to stay in the real world, so that they can create friction with the fan-created characters and accelerate the collapse of the real world.

Therefore, she is very likely to be very resistant to outsiders entering the formation world.

Who knows if she has any special sensitivity to outsiders entering the formation realm?

If such an intruder were to appear, and she were willing to spend the time to find and deal with them... then, without the Transcendent Pendant as a backup plan, Vonsman and the wolf would once again be Cinderella's toys!

I'm definitely not going to die anytime soon.

But there is no doubt that they will lose their ability to resist and move, becoming fish on a chopping board.

These two people were betrayed by him, and they even acted very grateful to him... To be honest, he felt a little embarrassed.

"Xiao Zhen, help me organize and categorize the two types of external aid personnel into two lists. Remind me when you enter the world where the listed personnel are located."

After resolving the issues with Von Smann and Wolf, Fan Xiao gave the order to "Truth Overcomes All"—without hiding it from Xia Li and the others.

The so-called two types of external aid refer to "external aid targeting Cinderella" and "external aid delaying the villainous characters".

As their names suggest, the former is responsible for suppressing Cinderella, while the latter is responsible for holding back other characters in the real world during the battle to prevent them from causing trouble and making the battle chaotic.

The tablet he was holding contained the concept art for all the works.

With this tablet, Xiao Zhen was able to collect and organize the information on the works, select the best solution, and there were no obstacles in this process.

Professional tasks should naturally be left to professionals... and the tools should be used.

On the other side, Xiao Zhen did not reply.

When strangers are around, it doesn't want to reveal its intelligence, lest it become a target for others.

"Mr. Fan, these glasses of yours... can they investigate information on their own?" Lily asked with a curious look, "Are they alive?"

When asked, she really wanted to touch it.

“Items are a player’s secret,” Xia Li reminded Lily. “If you want to ask, you can ask in private. Don’t ask when we’re all here.”

"Ah...? Sorry, I... I don't know this."

Lily said, a little embarrassed.

“It’s alright,” Fan Xiao waved his hand, “we should get going.”

The next second, he activated the now-cooled Transcendent Pendant, and once again disappeared from the spot with Xia Li and the others, leaving only Feng Siman and Wolf behind.

……

I don’t know how much time has passed.

It was a clear day, at 11 a.m.

A figure suddenly appeared out of nowhere in the scorched ruins—the sky above the former Blackrock City.

Golden hair, silver armor, battle dress, divine wings, a perfect face... it was Cinderella.

At this moment, the rules of the world no longer had the extra power to specifically target and exclude her.

She returned to the real world.

With brand new power.

Within the restored right wing, the power of "divine concealment" once again resides.

She has become stronger than before.

In Cinderella's hands, she was carrying two motionless people, as if she were carrying two corpses—it was Vonseman and Wolf, who had remained in "Mary's World".

Both of them were under multiple seals by the "divine decree," not only completely losing their ability to resist, but also their consciousness was completely sluggish, as if their minds had been put into time stop.

This time, Cinderella did not hesitate and directly took the two of them into the "Hidden" space.

She then immediately used spatial teleportation to quickly arrive at Volcano County City.

After glancing in a certain direction, she looked away, ignoring the city that had fallen into complete chaos, and teleported to a cemetery.

She remained silent for a while, gazing at the ceramic portraits on the three adjacent tombstones.

He then murmured, "I already know the information about the people who have traveled to and from this place in the past two weeks."

The next second, she received feedback, and her brows furrowed deeply.

As expected... we were exposed.

That's true, those outsiders aren't a bunch of idiots.

After her "disappearance" wings shattered, all the information about her hidden creations was definitely exposed.

As long as someone can connect her so-called reincarnation to the world of her works, finding out her past life identity will not be difficult.

A chilling glint flashed in Cinderella's eyes.

She concealed this information not only because she didn't want to reveal her abilities, but also because she didn't want people to know about her past.

She had already severed ties with everything from the past.

She didn't want anyone to bring up those disgusting, embarrassing, and resentful records again.

The murderous intent in Cinderella's eyes grew heavier and heavier, making her eyes look like a deep lake stained with blood.

"Hmph...a futile struggle."

Cinderella composed herself and murmured dismissively.

She then used the "divine command" to confirm some more information.

Alice, the outsider she sealed away... is dead.

He was killed by a character from another work.

The entire world is currently in turmoil, with countless characters searching for the outsider.

Is this world nearing its limit...?

Cinderella looked up at the horizon: "In that case, I shall create the straw that breaks the camel's back."

Alice is dead. Fan Xiao and the others hid in the world of the work using methods she didn't know, but... she captured two more tools, and Feng Long's team is still alive. The conditions for creating conflict and accelerating the collapse of the real world are still complete.

The advantage lies in her!
