[Mission Exploration Degree: 300%]

[Task completion status: indescribable]

[You have collected enough knowledge and taken the first step on the road to godhood. Your followers are spread all over foreign lands, and their actions have become anchor points that will be remembered by history. Next, it is time to complete your own sublimation and push this work to the final stage.]

【Settlement completed】

[Please complete the task and get rewards]

In Lu Ban’s vision, the cold and indifferent words of the Land of Silence appeared distortedly.

He confirmed that not all the players who had been sent out had returned, but the knowledge had been accumulated to a sufficient level.

It seems that the method Lu Ban adopted this time is very good, and it can actually get indescribable evaluation.

And, judging by the mission statement, his path should be correct.

Next, Lu Ban needs to truly sublimate his own existence and become a being like the Old Ones.

Speaking of this, Lu Ban discovered, based on the knowledge gained by players during their explorations in foreign lands during this period, that the so-called Old Ones are not all existences beyond the reach of humans.

Some of the Old Ones who have existed since time immemorial are truly great, and their mere existence drives all creatures who know their names into madness.

Some of them are the Old Ones that were sublimated from later generations. They are essentially more powerful creatures. Although they have certain immortal characteristics, their projections in the real world can be defeated and expelled.

As for the Outer Gods, they are the true gods above gods, beings that are superior to the Old Ones.

Even the incarnated followers are enough to rival some of the Old Ones.

Of course, Lu Ban did not seriously distinguish the levels of the Old Ones, and did not come up with any levels such as low-level Old Ones, high-level Old Ones, half-step Outer Gods, and great perfection of the Old Ones.

As long as one transcends human existence, they can be called the Old Ones.

However, Lu Ban's body has undergone a lot of alienation due to knowledge, and he needs to melt it from time to time to eliminate the influence of these alienations.

This only eliminates the appearance, not the root cause. As long as Lu Ban still maintains his human form, scales will still grow from his skin, and his internal organs will still devour each other. It only takes one day for Lu Ban to turn from a human being into a pool of rotten flesh and blood.

But it's not a big problem and it's acceptable.

He confirmed the completion of the mission and thought about the next steps.

According to the original plan, Lu Ban should go to the Ruined City to find Charlotte, get the last material, and refine [Last Words].

But after listening to Xia's words, he became interested in the wasteland again.

Lu Ban is now only one piece short of collecting all the fragments of Du Danping's melody, but he thinks it might be easier to just ask Du Danping where the last piece is.

Moreover, Lu Ban also roughly understood why Du Danping told Xiaya that his condition was very bad, because the current state of his body was indeed very bad, and he felt like an inhuman being.

At the same time, Lu Ban felt that it was necessary for him to meet with Du Danping to confirm some things.

"Let's take a look at the next task."

Lu Ban looked forward and saw the patterns on the wall twisting and flowing, forming the text of the system.

[Disturbance detected, repositioning mission]

"Um?"

This prompt text is not the first time to appear. There was a similar statement in the last mission. Lu Ban suspected that he had been targeted by some great beings and was asked to go to some specific foreign land.

【rainstorm】

[A heavy rain unprecedented in the wilderness came unexpectedly]

[Traces of living things were left on the barren sand, and human footprints followed one after another. Cities were built, and the flame of civilization was rekindled. After a long wait, the answer finally came.]

[However, in this rainstorm, countless wills surged, wanting to leave their own marks]

[The saint of Utopia is about to abdicate, and his successors are arguing endlessly, but no one knows that underneath this game of power is a more profound and indescribable game]

[You come to this city. Some people are cheering for the past, some are full of hope for the future, and some think the present is full of crises. Choose your camp and help them win.]

[“Who would have thought that we would have to go through what our ancestors went through thousands of years ago? Can we take a different path this time?”]

[Mission Difficulty: Brilliant]

The task description appeared in front of Lu Ban's eyes, filled with an ominous feeling.

Lu Ban has already experienced the missions of [Glorious] difficulty. All of these missions require him to reach the Glorious Realm and touch certain exotic core pollution.

And this time, it's obviously deserted.

Lu Ban had never seen a living saint in person, but even as a corpse, a saint possessed great power. Now the mission was obviously to engage in a game of chess with the saint's successors in the city.

You also need to choose a camp and fight against each other, and maybe the chosen ones from other foreign lands will appear.

Moreover, there is no companion on this mission, and I don’t know how Stone is doing.

"We're going to the Wasted City anyway, so I should be able to see him then."

Lu Ban thought about it and realized that the people who had traveled with him along the way had all ended up in a not-so-ideal way, so he could only wish Stone good luck.

He had no choice but to click on the task.

The pattern on the wall moved, twisting in a way that made your scalp tingle, and then the goal of the mission was revealed.

[Mission Objective: Select a camp and help it obtain the position of a saint]

[Mission objective: Survive until the rainstorm ends]

It's pretty simple and easy to understand, not as Riddler-like as the previous missions.

According to Lu Ban's idea, if he wanted to complete this mission, it would probably not be possible to use brute force. His method of killing other successors and becoming the next saint himself would probably be punished by the saint who had not yet abdicated.

However, Lu Ban is not very good at taking shortcuts.

As for the other goal, it is simple and clear.

Stay alive.

As I was thinking, the text continued.

【Confrontation Mission】

[Hostile Chosen Ones may appear. Please eliminate them and complete the mission.]

"The confrontation mission really involves the chosen ones from other foreign lands."

Lu Ban felt that he had almost figured out the tricks of the Land of Silence.

Since it is a mission of [Glorious] difficulty, Lu Ban must be well prepared before going.

Thinking of this, he decided to first absorb some foreign knowledge and mission information.

After opening [Silent Department Store], Lu Ban quickly found [Knowledge of a Madman] and without hesitation, he clicked on the Ten-pull Combo.
