However, no similar existence has been heard of in this instance.
Of course, this may be due to the Emperor being more well-known as the core of that instance, while this instance is sparsely populated, with little communication between different settlements, leading to slow information flow.
But not having heard of it doesn’t mean Bai Yi can really pretend it doesn’t exist.
The necessary preparations still have to be made; otherwise, if the Beastmen charge too bravely later, the losses would be too great.
"But speaking of which, since this is also a special instance, why haven’t we encountered any of those Paradise’s Contractors on this side yet?
Not to mention them coming to us actively, the Beastmen have advanced more than twenty kilometers, and yet they haven’t encountered a single Contractor..."
Although the main force in this instance is the Beastmen, the establishment of the Fungus Blanket is much like the main body in its instance, even cultivating the Burrowing Worms earlier to advance underground.
Relying on these Fungus Blanket channels to transfer network signals, the connection with the Beastmen is still maintained.
To her surprise, despite making such a commotion, there has been no encounter with any Contractors, leaving her quite surprised.
Clearly, the same Paradise war missions have been received, at least confirming that Contractors from Paradise exist in this world as well.
"Could it be because my movements were too big, and those Contractors were intimidated after seeing my Beastmen?
It doesn’t seem impossible; the main body was initially allowing the Insect Swarm time to develop, not showing its strength immediately, which led to Contractors attempting to probe.
But here, I immediately spread the Beastmen, according to their current stance, not to mention individual Contractors, perhaps even groups of Contractors would have to consider carefully...
Tsk, never mind, if the Contractors come, just let the Beastmen charge at them, if they don’t come to disrupt, even better, I can focus on research.
After all, as long as the main body completes Paradise’s mission, that’s enough; it’s not necessary to complete this one, just go with the flow.
Furthermore, even if the World Core is precious, it’s just an ornament for me right now.
I’m only preparing to ascend to Tier Six; compared to the necessities for ascending to the Seventh Rank, the knowledge these abnormalities represent is even more important..."
After all, it’s been only a few dozen minutes since the news of the World Core was received, leaving its value a bit uncertain, misled by the value described by the panel.
Thinking of getting a World Core fragment required for a Tier Six promotion early on, it naturally led to the idea of obtaining items for the Seventh Rank promotion in advance.
Yet at the time, I didn’t recall that getting the World Core fragment was just a coincidence, an unexpected delight.
There wasn’t really a dedicated pursuit due to a strong desire for it.
Having realized this, Bai Yi no longer insists on obtaining something unusable in the short term.
Decides to focus research on the "Soul Superpower Core" technology which is more important to her.
And the first step in the research, of course, is to have the Beastmen capture as many abnormalities and the corresponding Transcendents, the "Deceitful Men."
Through the Insect Swarm network, she conveyed her needs into the minds of the Beastmen, who, upon receiving the "Mother" command, became more spirited.
Even the originally Berserk Beastmen seemed to regain some rationality, their movements more precise.
But what Bai Yi doesn’t know is that this world indeed also has the existence of Paradise.
However, there are distinctions between different Paradises.
In contrast to Bai Yi’s indifference, the Contractors from another Paradise felt as if they were facing a formidable enemy.
Unlike the other side, which summoned a large number of powerful Contractors to prepare for a battle, this side only provided partial information.
It was as if those Contractors who entered this world were abandoned, directly disregarded.
This forced the already entered Contractors to band together, all gathering here to discuss countermeasures.
"What else can we think, we’re not like those lunatics from [Chaos] who only know slaughter.
We’re just movers of nature, going wherever there are resources, fighting and killing has nothing to do with us.
Since Paradise has already given us a choice, isn’t the implication clear enough?"
"Haha, it’s easy to say, but who will go?"
Several Contractors fell silent, either bowing their heads or looking elsewhere, as if there were precious minerals they cherished in those places.
Ever since they got the news from Paradise and the warnings attached to the optional missions, they first sought out the so-called Lord.
Though usually timid, they feared facing other Paradises, especially the lunatics from [Chaos].
Yet when it came to facing dungeon natives they could defeat, they wouldn’t hold back, directly hitting with full force.
After all, if they could defeat their opponents, who would admit cowardice?
But when they used various reconnaissance methods to see those large Beastmen continuously running and fighting, they admitted, at that point, they chickened out.
This world is indeed different from regular instances!
Although the abnormalities have low levels, when it comes to actual combat, Tier Five Contractors have to be very cautious even against a Tier Four, or even a Tier Three abnormality.
To avoid being killed instantly by some abilities.
Yet they observed that the Beastmen could directly withstand the abilities of these abnormalities, charging through head-on, and even catching the abnormalities directly!
