CHAPTER 382: CHAPTER 368 BONFIRE DIVINE COUNTRY

"Bonfire!?"

Black Star was surprised, "You’re helping me with this imperial examination, and your condition is for me to help you build a bonfire?"

"Yes, please."

Wales was evidently meticulous and came with a prepared plan,

"To build a bonfire clan, to dispel the fog of war! Only by joining forces can we be safe. After your examination, you also need safe campsites with bonfires to develop civilization, right?"

In the mind of Professor Wales, as a top scientist who traveled here, the more he understood this Crystal Series Universe, the more wary he became.

This Crystal Wall Universe is too mysterious!

Multi-Dimensional World, endless races, Creator Gods everywhere, vast and terrifying!

Since entering this mysterious region, he had been anxious, unable to eat or sleep well, and seeing Black Star’s odd actions almost gave him a heart attack!

Wales understood better than anyone that if he didn’t try to understand the new rules of life here, he would soon die here; he must experiment, explore, and seek the truth of this world!

As a technological civilization, he was definitely at a disadvantage here.

Here, only close-quarter street battles are possible; large-scale war armies are impossible to deploy.

It’s a world of individual combat prowess.

But this is a necessary course of action since Li Qing’s own son is part of the Extraordinary System, cutting down tech in his own home; how could it stand? Attacked by your overwhelming force outside, perhaps not victorious, here it’s guerrilla warfare.

However, in Wales’ eyes, there were additional concerns.

The most terrifying one is: outside, the subspace region is like a vast open football field, the probability of an invisible person running into someone is very low!

But here?

Small, narrow corridors, numerous compact alleyways, with so many people, the chance of bumping into each other on the street is too high!

Theoretically, once entering a Harmonization state, the mortality rate in a clash is 50%.

One life, one death.

Such a high probability made even Wales’ scalp tingle with fear.

As for whether it might be possible to be like mortals on the street, apologizing and pretending to walk away unscathed after bumping into someone?

Impossible.

The moment collision happens, the hidden cards turn into visible cards, the stronger side can eliminate you, absorb you, why let you go kindly?

The only chance for peaceful withdrawal is if both sides have nearly equal combat power and are mutually fearful, but this possibility is very low.

A lack of foresight brings immediate worries.

Even if Professor Wales could quickly re-enter stealth, that would also be in a disengaged situation.

As long as others are smart enough to continuously attack you, interfering with your material structure, they won’t let you re-enter the Harmonization state.

Hence, he knew he might very well bump into someone soon, and hiding would likely also be problematic, so now he must rely on Black Star, the Creator God, to build bonfires.

This guy might be crazy, but his creative ability is undoubtedly powerful.

"Are you sure it’s a bonfire?" Black Star said.

"Yes."

Professor Wales said, "Haven’t you discovered it yet? This is a Chaos Dark Forest, travelers go camping, and there must be bonfires to ensure their safety."

"If it were me, I’d place torches as warning lines in every place I rest, sticking them in the corridor beside us, and as long as it’s bright, it’s a safe zone."

"Even if others want to raid and sneak in, they must first put out the torches on lookout far away."

"But once we notice a distant bonfire extinguished, it’s a warning of invasion, buying us enough time to enter Harmonization stealth state and escape from another direction."

Black Star imagined that scene in his mind.

It was indeed a perfect strategy.

In this way, you wouldn’t have to camp with anxiety in the wild, you could sleep peacefully.

Black Star was astonished, "So that’s how it is. Thunderbolt Ancient God, Light Ancient God, and even Nokron travel in Chaos, holding torches and lighting the bonfires, they dare to reveal themselves in a world after establishing safe camps."

Why could those beings live for billions of years, how could they possibly be so careless?

They must be incredibly cautious.

And this old man is scary too.

Absolutely inhuman!

To actually deduce such an outcome from the bits of historical clues left by Minis!

This level of wisdom is truly monstrous and absurd.

"Not bad, it’s just historical inevitability, given time, I can certainly reach their heights too."

Wales chuckled as he listened to Black Star’s admiring tone, even though this kid was out of his mind, he still felt a bit pleased.

One fears that the greatest deduction would go unappreciated without an audience.

The old man felt that his previous life was too mundane, but here, though dangerous, he could show his skills, suddenly feeling quite content, after all, being shut away for too long will rust the brain.

Coming here wasn’t wrong, his eyes held a hint of confidence as he continued deducing:

"I even suspect, in my eyes, that the Divine Country in the universe is constructed this way, with torches filling the corridors, and the illuminated area is the Divine Country itself."

Divine Country!

This is actually the construction structure of a Divine Country?

Black Star’s pupils enlarged.

As those words fell, a vision instantly appeared in Black Star’s mind, countless worlds, corridors outside lined with torches, lighting up the surroundings.

In that moment, Black Star felt a surge of impulse rising!

A greed-driven ambition was rapidly emerging!

To rule the boundless Crystal Wall regions, to become the sovereign of an immense Divine Country established in the Multi-Dimensional World, it was an incredibly grand scene.

"What, tempted?"

Professor Wales asked.

"Yes." Black Star didn’t say much, took a deep breath, "Are you certain this bonfire creature can really be created?"

"It should be possible." Professor Wales adjusted his black-frame glasses, "Remember what Minis said about their history? When they were mortals, they killed the gods in heaven, relying on what?"

"It was building a special weapon to negate the gods’ unique features. Isn’t this the same now? Building special weapons to negate the gods’ unique feature—unobservability."

At that moment, Black Star was completely convinced, unable to resist saying, "I can give it a try."

"Good, speed is crucial." Professor Wales, not being long-winded, said, "We can’t afford to wait!"

"Let’s split up, I’ll go far away, dispatch troops into the world to kill the Creator Gods, obtain their brains, and prepare the subjects’ imperial exam rewards to prevent exposing us as fake Ancient Gods, while you stay here and study the bonfire."

"We both have to complete these before the exam ends! Without bonfires, you can’t emerge from Chaos, in a radiant Divine Country, to greet the strong who passed the exam, your style wouldn’t be enough!"

"Those people are smart, they all know you’re a fake now, you even intended to bait them before? I don’t know where you got the nerve."

"As for that third person, I’ll find a way to contact him; he’s not on our channel, in stealth, but I’ll figure out how to lure him nearby. When we light the bonfire, illuminate him, with his unprepared self exposed, we can either capture and control him or kill him!"

As for those patrolling mysterious female natives in prisons? With bonfires, we have the confidence to oppose their hide-and-seek strategy; with torches stuck on walls far away as a warning, if they approach us we can relocate, avoiding contact with them initially."

Wales continued talking.

An incredibly meticulous and thoroughly thought-out plan, considering all the repercussions, but Black Star was already overwhelmed by it and quickly began researching bonfire creatures.

This guy, he does have something.

"Bonfire, and this..." Li Qing also observed quietly for a while, breathing a sigh of relief in his heart.

The Multi-Dimensional Crystal Wall System’s Chaos Divine Country system, the war mode, was deduced!

Bonfire, can dispel the thick fog of war, construct campsites, safe zones... indeed, it seems like an essential item!

It’s the essential travel tool for the travelers of my Crystal Wall Universe.

Yet it seems quite natural.

The war model proposed was originally the most reasonable form of warfare.

Just like how the cosmos is filled with carrier ships carrying mecha, it’s the most reasonable method evolved through the protracted wars.

Even if he hadn’t proposed it, sooner or later, someone else would’ve.

The torch-bearing Era Traveler, there’s somewhat of a mythical flavor to it.

"So in the future, wouldn’t this be a street thug brawl mode here?" Li Qing sighed while sitting in the room, stretching lazily.

Seizing the streets, alleys, plazas, corridors, planting torches on the walls, illuminating the unobservable fog of war, turning it into his own Divine Country’s safe zone.
