Unsure why, but looking at the system's final prompt, Chen Luo felt a sense of disappointment, as if the system were lamenting his lack of progress. Was it angry that World No. 9 had covered his expenses?
However, 1,500 portions of Great Origin Power, while difficult, at least offered a tangible goal.
Chen Luo gazed at the continuously cracking amniotic fluid of his mother world. After a slight frown, he said solemnly, "System, I'll pay two hundred portions of Great Origin Power to help me repair my mother world!"
Great Origin Power was still insufficient; Chen Luo had to go out and earn more. For now, he should prioritize repairing his mother world's injuries. After all, from Chen Luo's current observational dimension, the world's amniotic fluid, formed by Great Origin, could only be described as riddled with holes. Moreover, if the world wasn't repaired, Great Origin would remain dormant, and if Great Origin remained dormant, who would pay his ransom?
This was, of course, a joke. After obtaining the qualifications of a Judge, Chen Luo had acquired more information about the void and worlds. The amount of Great Origin Power determined the upper limit of Great Origin and worlds. Lower-tier worlds had Great Origin with 1 to 999 portions of Great Origin Power. If even the most basic portion was lost, the Great Origin would completely dissipate. Worlds selected by the game had generally developed to around one hundred portions of Great Origin Power.
The Great Origin of middle-tier worlds possessed 1,000 to 99,999 portions of Great Origin Power. If it fell below one thousand, the Great Origin would still be that of a middle-tier world, but it would enter a severely injured state, as was the case with Chen Luo's mother world. If Great Origin Power continued to drain, Chen Luo's mother world might even be downgraded. Furthermore, as a medium-tier world that had been guided by the system, before the invasion of the Dark Demons, its Great Origin certainly possessed far more than a mere thousand portions, otherwise, it couldn't have resisted the Dark Demon's main body for so long.
As for higher-tier large worlds, and even the super-large worlds about which Chen Luo's current information was vague, those were not worlds that Chen Luo's current level could consider. Therefore, these two hundred portions of Great Origin were purely for the mother world's healing. After all, 1,000 portions of Great Origin was the baseline for a middle-tier world, and Chen Luo absolutely could not touch it. Otherwise, under repeated injuries in a short period, the mother world might permanently lose the possibility of further enhancement.
As for slowly accumulating Great Origin Power and only alleviating the world's pain when Great Origin Power overflowed? Chen Luo didn't believe his luck was so good that he would always encounter such generous missions. Therefore, if he could help the world alleviate its pain, he should do his best first.
As Chen Luo finished speaking, an invisible great power descended from between reality and illusion, and two hundred luminous orbs instantly appeared before him. The next moment, these orbs completely merged into Chen Luo's mother world. As the Great Origin Power integrated, the world's amniotic fluid outside the mother world visibly repaired itself.
In Chen Luo's current observational perception, he could vaguely sense a will, far grander than that of World No. 9, slowly awakening. Just by coming into contact with this will, Chen Luo felt a sense of warmth, like returning home.
"Thank... you... my... child...."
A vague voice entered Chen Luo's mind. Compared to the simple-minded World No. 9 Great Origin, the mother world's Great Origin, as a middle-tier world's Great Origin, was indeed much smarter. However, after the voice sounded, Chen Luo sensed that this will seemed to fall into slumber again.
But this time, the world as a whole was improving. The cracks on the world's amniotic fluid completely disappeared, and energy and information within the world were no longer plundered by the external void through the cracks. Chen Luo could even sense that the amniotic fluid of the middle-tier world now seemed to have come alive. The pure white world amniotic fluid expanded and contracted like human breathing. In the seemingly completely void middle layer of the void, energy and information even more refined and abundant than those in the River of Void were continuously absorbed by the world!
The different levels of status determined what worlds one could see. The middle layer of the void, which appeared as nothingness in Chen Luo's eyes, might be a vibrant world full of infinite energy and information, similar to the River of Void, in the eyes of a middle-tier world.
Feeling the sleeping world will and seeing everything moving in a positive direction, Chen Luo couldn't help but show a gratified smile from the bottom of his heart.
[Game World No. 10 repaired successfully, world functions are operating normally, world amniotic fluid cracks have completely disappeared, and Great Origin's status has been re-stabilized.]
[Detected that Game World No. 10 has stably existed in the middle layer of the void, and game time has changed due to the void's layer.]
[Based on the anomaly in the deep void and the accident that occurred in this world previously, the information for the game's acts has been updated.]
[The arrival time of the second act for Game World No. 10 has been adjusted to twenty years in the middle layer of the void!]
Upon hearing this, Chen Luo's expression suddenly brightened. He had initially felt that with less than two years until the next stage, he might not have enough time to search for sufficient Great Origin Power. After all, regular missions seemed to yield only a few portions of Great Origin Power each time, and the risks of irregular missions were uncertain. Therefore, he was considering whether to undertake missions in medium-tier worlds, but the time flow in medium-tier worlds was also an issue. However, with the second act's time significantly postponed, this had resolved a pressing concern for Chen Luo.
[Notification: After the second act of the game begins, as punishment for violating the game rules! The Dark Demon Lord will enter Game World No. 10 as a world Boss!]
Chen Luo's smile suddenly froze: "System! I know my doomsday game this time is of the highest difficulty."
"But System! Don't you think it's a bit too over the top?!"
"A third-tier Lord, and you're putting it into a medium-tier world? Can the world handle it?!"
After a moment of pause, the system panel seemed to understand Chen Luo's emotions and, uncharacteristically, explained:
[Due to the Great Commander who has already been killed within your world, your world is experiencing the highest difficulty that has never truly been activated since the game was created.]
[According to the underlying rules, during the second act, the game must dispatch a third-tier existence as a World Boss.]
[Of course, as an equal exchange! Here, we can reveal the rewards to you in advance! If you successfully defeat the Dark Demon Lord, the game will spare no effort to help your mother world upgrade to a large world!]
[And you will also have an opportunity for a perfect life leap during the world's promotion!]
[The game highly anticipates the development of your world. Perhaps, your world has the chance to reach the final destination!]
Looking at the grand promises the system was making, Chen Luo sneered and shook his head:
"The pie is too big! I can't swallow it! Back then, I was forcibly pushed to the limit of my domain, combined with the selfless sacrifices of the mother world at its peak, which allowed you to intervene. Now, with the World Boss, its identity is legitimate, and you won't intervene. And if I don't reach third-tier in twenty years, how am I supposed to fight the Dark Demon?!"
"I'll stick to my original intention and honestly earn Great Origin Power to redeem my mother world! I've also seen that after I transformed the game world into my divine kingdom's territory, my disciples' player qualifications were preserved."
"After the world is redeemed, with my player and Judge identities preserved, I'll just take the world and roam the void! When I also become a Lord, I'll drag out the Dark Demon and Long Jiu and give them a hundred rounds each!!"
