<h4>Chapter 19: Chapter 19 Main Quest (Seek Rmendation)</h4>


    Jiang Qiao stood at the entrance of the invading ne. At this moment, time seemed to stop, and everyone stopped what they were doing.


    It wasn''t the time that stopped, but Jiang Qiao''s thinking speed was elerated hundreds of times. Hai Lan''s consciousness was also elerated at the same time, and her consciousnessnded in front of Jiang Qiao from mid-air.


    This elerated thinking was a skill Jiang Qiaoprehended under creator mode. He had some things to discuss with Hai Lan.


    "There are no living creatures left inside the invading ne. Why did you suddenly hit the pause button?"


    Hai Lan seemed a bit impatient, as if she would charge into the wild invading ne with knife and fork in the next second and start devouring.


    "Didn''t we agree? Before you devour that ne, we need to make some minor repairs." Jiang Qiao pointed to the ruined food street around them and the fully armed soldiers behind them.


    "Alright, this might consume about two thousand points of energy." Hai Lan was still a bit distressed over the energy, because even if she swallowed the invading ne, she would only gain about ten thousand points of energy.


    "Also! Let me remind you... some yers and humans are too deeply affected, which might be a bit troublesome."


    Hai Lan''s hair began to gradually turn gold, indicating she was preparing to enter creator mode.


    "Which people?" Jiang Qiao asked.


    Hai Lan sent a semi-transparent window to Jiang Qiao, showing seven or eight names. The first name that caught his eye was Zhao Mingwei''s Happy Game and Add Milk No Extra Charge.


    "He was on this food street when the ne invasion started. Both his main body and game character came into contact with creatures from another ne. Even after correction, he''ll remember everything. Also, this priestess, she stuffed real-world money into her inventory bag. She might also remember everything. Only these two people are severely affected."


    "People I know... But if it''s only two, it should be fine." Jiang Qiao said.


    "Then I''ll start."


    Hai Lan''s hair had turnedpletely golden. She rose into the air, and the ground around them began to tremble slightly.


    The stones destroyed by the orcs returned to their original positions as if time was reversing. The bodies and blood of the orcs disappeared entirely.


    When Hai Lan finished the repair, she fell from the sky. Jiang Qiao quickly caught her, but instead of feeling the softness of a young girl''s body, he felt a weight so heavy he wanted to throw her to the ground.


    "You need to lose weight," Jiang Qiao said, staring at Hai Lan.


    "I''m in a state of consciousness right now! And this isn''t the time to say such things!" Hai Lan broke free from Jiang Qiao''s embrace. Her consciousness was very weak, and she couldn''t walk properly. It seemed that modifying the rules and barriers of the Blue consumed more than just energy.


    "Alright, then let''s eat." Jiang Qiao said something Hai Lan loved to hear.


    "Then hurry up and release the elerated consciousness state!" Hai Lan was now very anxious. Her consciousness could enter the dining hall, but her body couldn''t.


    Jiang Qiao released the elerated consciousness state, and everything in Jiangcheng food street returned to normal. Aside from theck of people, everything was back to how it was before the invasion.


    Then Jiang Qiao led Hai Lan into the invading ne.


    This ne was indeed barren... it only had a single continent, not even water.


    @@novelbin@@


    The soil on the ground was cracked and dry. There was nond in sight within ten miles, no sky, no moon, and no sun.


    The air was so thick it suffocated people. Fortunately, Jiang Qiao, in his game character form, didn''t need to breathe.


    "Does this ne really have no animals? Only those orcs?"


    Jiang Qiao nced around. There were no animals, and he couldn''t see any nts either. There might not even be microorganisms.


    "This is a fragment of a ne. Fragments mean many parts are iplete."


    Hai Lan moved to the center of this deste world. A dim light orb floated up from the ground and slowly moved into her hand.


    Jiang Qiao habitually cast a detection spell on the light orb.


    The detection spell was the skill he put the most effort into editing under creator mode. This skill was the basic skill all professions owned. It could read the data of various items and monsters in the game world, even in other worlds.


    The data of the light orb disyed in front of Jiang Qiao.


    ''Exotic Beast ne Core Fragment, Completeness 20%, Provides ten thousand energy points upon devouring, Creation area of twenty-two square kilometers, yer limit increased by one hundred, Expands star map''s search range, Unlocks invasion function.''


    The description was just this one sentence, nothing more.


    "Only ten thousand energy. With the monsters we killed before, it''s a total of ten thousand two hundred and thirty-one points... But the key is the creation area and yer limit." Jiang Qiao calcted the benefits he gained from this Abyss Rift as a creator and game GM. At that moment, Hai Lan had already swallowed the world core fragment in one gulp, even making an "ah woo" sound.


    Jiang Qiao impulsively cast another detection spell on Hai Lan.


    Hai Lan


    Race: Devouring God.


    Level: LV1


    Character Description: Finally used a detection spell on her, a little reminder that there are still many secrets on Hai Lan, but she herself can''t remember much of the past. However, she might recall something when she swallows the first world core - Creator Jiang Qiao''s note.


    Devouring God? Jiang Qiao raised his eyebrows at the race. After a few bites of the world core fragment, Hai Lan''s face suddenly showed a remembering expression.


    Jiang Qiao seemed to see an exmation mark above the goddess''s head.


    Not "seemed" - Jiang Qiao really received a system prompt, notifying him that he had triggered a hidden task.


    ''Creator Line Quest - Hai Lan''s Development n, Task Description: Hai Lan, the Devouring God, once possessed a divine status and abilities that were unrivaled across the star map. The worlds she created were boundless until she identally over-ate. I can''t know the reason for Hai Lan''s fall, but her divine status and created worlds didn''t vanish, transforming into countless fragments scattered across the star map. Collect the fragments of Hai Lan''s past worlds to strengthen her divine status, gaining Hai Lan +1 in the process. Quest reward: Increases yer level cap, certain chance to obtain NPC assistance from Hai Lan''s original world, some of which are over-level 100 strong NPCs.''


    This quest was something Jiang Qiao edited under creator mode. He only triggered it just now. The task content straightforwardly informed Jiang Qiao about Hai Lan''s past.


    yer level cap! This was what Jiang Qiao needed most. The highest-level creatures he created were only level fifty, which was still too low in the various worlds of the star map.


    "Jiang Qiao, listen to me!" Hai Lan didn''t seem aware Jiang Qiao had an additional main task and was about to exin again when.


    "Say no more, I''ll treat you to fried chicken to celebrate you leveling up." Jiang Qiao said.


    "Okay!"


    Hai Lan agreed without hesitation.
