Global Dungeon: I Can See the Status Bar

Chapter 146: Chapter 103: This Puppet Apostle… Damn, What a Schemer!

Lu Wenwu expressed confusion.

However, this brute had never considered following the normal game clearance process to gather ways to increase the Dimensional Demon God’s favorability via special side quests…

Just like the task of the house enslaver.

One of the few lone wolf players did just that.

He sneaked into the Salvation First Army with superb skills and powerful acting, now frantically completing side quests and special side quests at the headquarters.

If there were a reputation system, he would probably be at least “Friendly” with the Salvation First Army.

Lu Wenwu, who prided himself as an advanced player, didn’t care about conventional methods, and another lone wolf didn’t realize the truly correct approach.

But this time, among the “teammates” matched, there was a real high-level player, known as the dungeon clearance expert, also undergoing advanced trials.

This expert had realized the true strategy for this dungeon early on.

In this world, there are eight factions: the seven apostles and the Salvation Army.

A cursory glance at the mission introduction and background story seems to suggest joining the Salvation Army, helping it sweep through the seven apostles for the final victory.

This is what a normal person would think.

This assumption led the lone wolf to do just that.

But Lu Wenwu and the high-level player each independently realized that if they didn’t intend to kill apostles for rewards, the Salvation Army wasn’t that important.

What’s important is how to increase favorability with the Demon God through various means.

This is the key to breaking the Endless Reincarnation.

Failing to break the cycle, one will eventually perish here.

Thus, to boost favorability with the Demon God, not only should one not join the Salvation Army, but also directly declare war on it, and then join the apostles’ camp!

So, after seeing through all this, the high-level player casually took down several of the Salvation First Army’s lower-level commanders as proof of allegiance and resolutely joined under the King of the Apostles.

Now, much like the one at the Salvation Army headquarters, he is frantically completing various tasks to quickly increase the Demon God’s favorability.

Even though he’s been striving for half a day, overall favorability is still less than half of Lu Wenwu’s…

At least, however, this is a feasible path.

Ignoring this unconventional cheater, the high-level player’s progress is indeed the fastest.

Now, Lu Wenwu, the troublemaker, intends to take a break before continuing his path of recklessness.

Next stop, the neighboring Puppet Realm!

…

Salvation Army headquarters—Spark Base.

Central Command Center.

A duty officer of East Asian descent rubbed his eyes, long unable to regain focus while staring at the images displayed on the large monitoring screen.

In fact, it wasn’t just him.

Aside from the never-ending various device alerts and computer voice reminders constantly going “beep beep beep beep,” the rest of the central command center was filled only with the sound of heavy breathing.

The duty officer tentatively asked the technical staff: “Is our satellite…broken?”

The technician instantly came back to his senses, checking the transmission of uploaded and downloaded data and the self-check program.

“Report, our satellite is operating well,” the technician immediately responded, “The self-check program is running normally, no anomalies detected, it’s probably not a false report.”

“Can some analyst explain this to me?” The officer still felt incredulous, pointing to the electronic screen, “The Celestial Eye System momentarily marked all Extraordinary life signs in the Life Realm as death, does this make sense?”

The deputy softly said: “Lao Wu, could it be that previous kind of…”

The second half of the deputy’s sentence went unfinished.

But the meaning was already clear.

This was much like the result after the War Apostle was previously slain, but nobody dared to confirm this matter.

Even the death of the War Apostle was only confirmed by the Salvation Army through the verbal exchanges of two other apostles during battle.

The duty officer pondered for a moment and decisively threw the responsibility up the chain.

I’m done thinking about it!

Report it!

After all, I don’t have the authority to make a decision either.

Let those higher-ups truly capable of deciding these matters handle the headache!

Soon, a group of top military and political officials, both the youngest and those well over fifty, gathered in the highest conference room—at most one or two hours since the last meeting adjourned.

Everyone looked at the document issued before them, exchanging glances.

They attempted to read something from each other’s eyes.

However, all they could see in each other’s eyes was confusion, bewilderment, and feigned profundity.

The scene became somewhat comical for a moment.

“So…after the War Apostle, the Life Apostle…also met their death?”

An elderly black gentleman spoke up first, breaking the oppressive and bizarre atmosphere in the conference room.

“Do you think this is possible?”

The hawkish Lawrence let out a muffled snort: “I believe we don’t need to concern ourselves whether that damned Life Apostle is dead, we should seize this opportunity to once again head to the Life Realm and acquire those usually scarce resources!”

“Seconded.”

“Seconded.”

“Seconded.”

…

Lawrence’s words received unanimous approval from the decision-making group of elderly personnel present.

Compared to the previous chaotic discussion regarding the Lu Wenwu issue, facing those easily accessible resources, everyone appeared very enthusiastic.

The meeting wasn’t over yet…oh wait, the main agenda of the meeting hadn’t officially started; factional troops loyal to various camps had already been dispatched by their respective leaders.

Under the pretense: reclaim lost territory.

After this decision was rapidly made, passed, and executed, the atmosphere in the conference room returned to its previous state.
