Your Lord Has A Screw Loose?-Chapter 398 - 400: Devouring, the Instance World of Obliteration

"Notify everyone, it's time to start, I'm going to rest for a while," Qin Muye said, somewhat tiredly.

Now that he had acquired the Territory Traits, it was naturally time to begin the next phase of his plan.

"Yes, Master," Black Hand immediately replied. Both the Umbrella Company and the scattered Spies had long since returned to the Endless Abyss.

The Endless Abyss, vast as a continent, drifted out from the unfathomable spatial crevices undetectable by the world's human civilization, spreading Chaos and Abyss Power instantly like the sky darkening at dusk.

"The World Devouring Plan begins, all units prepare!"

Following a command in the Magic Network, the entire Endless Abyss transformed into a massive black hole, pulling the whole world into its irresistible terrifying grasp.

It was like when the Endless Abyss was still the Ruby Hell, swallowing other hells, except this time the target was the entire world.

Qin Muye yawned, watching this scene unfold. He was inherently connected to the Endless Abyss, and now, as it swallowed the world and gained strength, his power increased as well.

He might not reach Rank 9, but reaching the peak of Rank 8 after devouring the entire world was still achievable.

This time he was truly tired; the biggest difficulty wasn't the World's Son·Civilization, but civilization itself. He had assumed it was merely a concept of human civilization, but it actually encompassed the concept of world civilization, from time immemorial to the present, including the rules from the birth of the world, the progress of life's development—everything had to be handled by Qin Muye.

Luckily, he was now indescribable. Otherwise, he might not have been able to withstand it. Should he fail, he would be transformed into civilization itself and become a new World's Son.

"As expected, the restrictions still exist," Qin Muye felt the changes in the Endless Abyss.

The real changes from devouring the world only happened in the deep Abyss Layer below the reflection; the territory itself did not undergo any changes.

In other words, the original forty-five Abyss Layers began to grow, and in just a few breaths of time, it had expanded to fifty layers.

"My authority over the territory is still too low; I can't really direct it."

"But this is good news; my authority is increasing."

The growth from devouring the world first passed through Qin Muye, then reached the territory. Unfortunately, due to Rank restrictions, the growth in other parts was not as noticeable.

The most significant growth occurred in the Abyss Layer, followed by the Illusion Dream Realm, and finally the outer Mysterious Lock that contained everything. As for the main continent of the Floating City, there was almost no growth in this period.

Because this main body was the beginning of everything, originally transformed from the Mage Tower.

Qin Muye indeed had authority over the Endless Abyss territory, but by his estimates, on average, it was only about 5%, with the rest restricted by rules turned into data.

He estimated that by devouring this world and delving deeper, he could increase his authority from the original 5% to about 10%.

The reason was that, during the devouring of the world, he was in command. It seemed the world was being devoured, but in reality, it was first transformed through Qin Muye's Magic Power. Infused with Qin Muye's will, this Magic Power acted as though Qin Muye was gradually integrating the Endless Abyss into his own body.

There naturally was a medium involved, which was the reflection of the main Floating City's Abyss, formed by Qin Muye's Shadow and Shadow Equipment. With the Illusion Dream Realm as a transmutation station he had refined, and even the Hell Labyrinth being a derivative part of Qin Muye.

Though "Lord Era" was powerful, it was all his people.

Moreover, he had deeper connections with the Lord Traits. The Seven Chapter Secret Scroll was created by Qin Muye based on the Heavenly Venerate Dao Scripture, the Abyss Demon Net was a part of the Magic Network, and World·Civilization was crafted by Qin Muye using his own Magic Power, combining World's Son·Civilization and the entire world's civilization.

"Growing stronger while lying down is truly refreshing, it's just a pity that there's only one chance for it," he thought.

Qin Muye knew that there wouldn't be another opportunity like this to undergo such a qualitative change when devouring the world next time. The gap between Rank 8 and Rank 9 was enormous.

It wasn't possible to keep devouring worlds and expect to grow continuously; if he did so, the territory would grow stronger, not himself.

"The Hell Labyrinth has actually changed? Did it undergo a qualitative change?" Qin Muye was somewhat surprised.

This was beyond his expectations. Other than the expanding Illusion Dream Realm, the continuously growing Magic Network, and the wildly proliferating Abyss, the only other thing undergoing such intense change was the Hell Labyrinth, the external Protection.

"This feeling, is it like the world barriers?"

After noticing the changes in the Mysterious Lock, Qin Muye conducted research and speculation and quickly discovered that this object was evolving toward a world barrier.

Qin Muye had seen such a thing before; it was through breaking through the world barrier that the Insect Race had entered the Warlock Dynasty server.

"Does that mean, the Endless Abyss is transforming into a true world?"

"That's right, after all, having devoured a world, there should be a corresponding reward."

Qin Muye didn't interfere, but instead monitored the entire Endless Abyss Territory through the Magic Network and his own perception; he wanted to capture all the data during the transformation process.

Although he had already recorded various rule data in this world's civilization, it was always good to keep records, and it would serve as an important reference for him when reshaping the Endless Abyss in the future.

As the devouring progressed, Qin Muye also noticed his reputation was constantly rising because the Black Hand had already arranged an exposure plan and a plan to round up laborers before initiating the project.

The exposure plan was for Qin Muye's main mission, using the Umbrella Company's widespread industrial influence across the Federation for staged publicity, directly working towards a bad reputation.

When someone does good deeds, there might be doubts, but if it's said that someone is doing evil, then most people will believe it.

As for the laborer plan, it naturally involves using the Soul Summoning Technique to summon the souls of the dead to become Skeleton Soldiers, which are then modified to become the domain's Terminator Skeleton Soldiers.

Otherwise, dying would be a waste; better to keep them in the territory as a human resource.

Qin Muye didn't care at all about this because it wasn't people from his own world, their body structures weren't even the same, let alone their cultural customs or the progress of their civilizations. In fact, even if you counted it all up, even Qin Muye, who had just arrived in the "Lord Era" as a human, wasn't of the same lineage as the people of this world.

At most, they only looked similar; there was no sense of identification with anything else.

"Black Hand, inform all units to control the progress well. The completion of devouring the world should sync with the main mission, otherwise, the rewards might fall short," Qin Muye reminded.

If it weren't for the mission and the rewards, the pace of devouring could be much faster.

If this devouring project could benefit the entire Endless Abyss, Qin Muye might not care about the mission, as it would mean breaking free from the limitations of Territory Rank. But for now, he still had to follow the original plan.

"Master, the progress is in compliance. There aren't too many issues, we guarantee to finish devouring synchronously when the reputation reaches 100%," Black Hand responded.

The whole plan had been prepared for ten years and definitely considered all possible situations. At present, they were not deviating from the plan and didn't even need to use the backup plan. Everything was progressing in a very orderly manner.

There was no sudden hero or big shot jumping out to stop them, everything was so calm.

The chaos of the Federation? That was just part of the plan.

The entire Federation was but a line in the plan; it wasn't possible for the Federation to have any power to resist.

From military to civilian life, everything about the Federation was already under the control of the Umbrella Company. From the soles of their feet to their undergarments, there was nothing that the Federation could hide from the Umbrella Company.

"Be cautious, after all, it's the first time doing this; who knows what might happen." Qin Muye cautioned anyway, as in the past he had devoured spaces like the Shadow Realm and the Underworld, but these were not on the same level as a world, so the more cautious he could be without experience, the better.

"Yes, Master!" Black Hand could only comply.

As the devouring neared its end, Qin Muye also gradually reached the final stage of wrapping up.

And the reputation percentage for the main mission naturally rose to the threshold.

As the final piece of the entire world was devoured to nothing, the main mission also reached 100%. Although he didn't know how it was judged, since it was complete, Qin Muye decisively chose to submit the mission to return, and instantly anchored a transfer to the Warlock Dynasty server.

After all, to return was to go directly back to his territory, and the world where his territory was located had already been devoured by him.
