Chapter 165: The Method to Sever the Connection Between Two Worlds
While Kean was contacting his butler Farmer, attempting to get released early from the Lannisters" confinement room, Jeremy was deep in discussion with Janna, the Goddess of Class Change, and [The World] about their next steps.
Jeremy had already learned that one of the apocalypse game"s masterminds could manifest directly in the real world to try and eliminate him.
This revelation left Jeremy utterly shocked and profoundly terrified.
Although Jeremy had previously confronted one of the apocalypse game"s masterminds, specifically "The Sun." at that time, he had the assistance of Janna, the Goddess of Class Change, and "The World."
"The Sun." in most circumstances, did not regard Jeremy as his primary adversary.
However, if one of the apocalypse game"s planners were to arrive in the real world, neither Janna, the Goddess of Class Change, nor [The World] would be able to provide Jeremy with any assistance.
"How could I possibly defeat a deity? Shouldn"t you both come up with a solution to our current predicament?"
Jeremy, unable to devise a way out himself, naturally placed his hopes on the other two.
After all, the strength of the other two was significantly greater than Jeremy"s.
Janna, the Goddess of Class Change, shook her head.
"I don"t know how to help you. Your current level hasn"t reached 50 yet, which means you can"t undergo the next class change swiftly.
If you could reach level 50 quickly, I might be able to grant you more formidable powers through the class change process."
Janna"s words left Jeremy deeply disappointed.
He was still far from reaching level 50, lacking a significant amount of experience. Furthermore, with the apocalypse game"s instances and monsters having been substantially strengthened, gaining experience had become much more challenging than before.
Since Janna, the Goddess of Class Change, had no solutions, Jeremy naturally pinned his last hope on "The World."
In Jeremy"s view, [The World] had never let him down before.
No matter what formidable enemy they faced or what crisis loomed, [The World] always managed to come up with a strategy and provided Jeremy with powerful assistance.
[The World] looked at Jeremy with a gentle gaze.
"I indeed have a method that might allow you to defeat the apocalypse game"s planner. However, using this method is extremely dangerous. You must be mentally prepared."
Jeremy nodded.
No matter how perilous the method might be, it would be far safer than facing one of the apocalypse game"s planners unprepared.
"The method I propose is that you can use a ritual to sever the connection between the two worlds.
Even if the apocalypse game"s planner sends the majority of his power into the real world, you can use this ritual to block his power from entering the real world."
"The strategy provided by [The World] certainly seemed highly feasible to Jeremy.
However, Jeremy thought that any method capable of severing the connection between two worlds would undoubtedly be incredibly complex. It"s quite possible that Jeremy himself would face enormous dangers during the ritual.
"Just tell me the method now." Jeremy said.
Despite knowing that employing this method would undoubtedly bring peril, Jeremy had no other options left.
[The World] raised its left hand, and an exceptionally intricate diagram appeared before Jeremy.
"These are the symbols required for the ritual. You must memorize them thoroughly." [The World] said, placing a whistle into Jeremy"s hand.
"If you want to perform the ritual, you must draw this symbol completely around yourself. Then, stand at the very center of the symbol and blow this whistle.
During the ritual, you will feel as if you are entering another world. In such a situation, you must remain calm because if you panic, you will be drawn into that unknown world."
[The World] explained the method to sever the connection between the two worlds in detail.
Although Jeremy memorized the ritual procedure, he couldn"t shake the feeling that it would be impossible to perform the ritual in the midst of a battle."
"During the ritual, it seems I won"t be able to move. Does this mean that if I am suddenly attacked, the ritual can"t be performed at all?" Jeremy asked, a hint of concern in his voice.
[The World] nodded slightly, a trace of solemnity on its face.
"You are correct. This is the biggest flaw of the method I have provided you. You must remain vigilant at all times. If the apocalypse game"s planner finishes all preparations and appears before you, you won"t have time to conduct the ritual."
[The World]s" response made Jeremy"s mood even worse.
"Aside from this method, is there really no other assistance you can offer me? Both of you seem to be in great condition right now. Can"t you at least provide me with some equipment or additional experience points?"
"Even if those are not possible, can"t you give me some extra skills? My previous skills have been sealed."
The Goddess of Class Change, Janna, and [The World] were well aware of Jeremy"s skills being sealed.
However, they were powerless to help.
Jeremy"s skills had been sealed by [The Sun] using its authority over the rules before it fell.
Even though the Goddess of Class Change, Janna, and [The World] had somewhat recovered, they were still incapable of breaking the final seal set by "The Sun."
Upon seeing the expressions on their faces, Jeremy understood everything.
"It seems you truly have no other solutions. In that case, I won"t linger here any longer. I should return to the real world and find ways to level up as quickly as possible." Jeremy said.
Jeremy promptly decided to end the conversation.
After Jeremy"s figure vanished, the Goddess of Class Change, Janna, asked [The World] with a hint of concern, "Do you truly believe he can face such a massive crisis on his own this time?
To my knowledge, he won"t just be up against [The White Tower.] Other apocalypse game planners will also make their moves in the shadows. Not to mention, the remnants of [The Sun] will never let Jeremy off."
[The World] listened quietly to what Janna had to say and then responded in a calm tone, "This is something Jeremy must achieve. If he cannot accomplish this, he has no right to be the savior.
Jeremy is already the most gifted among all humans. If even Jeremy isn"t qualified to become the savior, then humanity has no right to continue to exist."
[The World] maintained a remarkably calm expression while saying these words.
Although [The World] was a complete adversary of the apocalypse game planners led by "The Fool." he actually cared very little about humanity.
[The World] merely wished for humans to join forces with him in combating "The Fool."
The Goddess of Class Change, Janna, understood [The World]s" true intentions at this moment. She sighed and continued, "If I were in Jeremy"s situation, I would never be able to maintain such composure as he does."
Despite having had some conflicts with Jeremy before, the Goddess of Class Change, Janna, always held a high opinion of him. She believed Jeremy had the potential to become the hero capable of saving everyone.
[The World] did not utter a single word. He simply gazed silently at the iridescent lights in the distance.
"We should be more concerned about our own situation right now. In the real world, Jeremy is unlikely to encounter [The White Tower] directly in the near future." she said.
"And we are about to meet [The Hanged Man] and [The Magician.] Those two will surely show us no mercy."
As [The World] spoke these words, the iridescent lights in the distance grew increasingly dazzling.
Two indistinct figures emerged from the radiant glow. These figures were none other than the apocalypse game planners, as mentioned by [The World.]
"You should be prepared for battle by now, shouldn"t you? In the upcoming fight, I won"t be able to offer you much assistance. It"s impossible for me to contend with two apocalypse game planners simultaneously."
[The World] asked the Goddess of Class Change, Janna, in a subtle tone.
Without hesitation, the Goddess of Class Change, Janna, replied, "Although my strength isn"t as formidable as yours, I won"t be easily vanquished by the apocalypse game planners.
The fact that [The Fool] could severely wound me doesn"t mean the other apocalypse game planners can do the same. I don"t need your help because I can face one of them on my own."
As soon as Janna finished speaking, the two figures stepped out of the iridescent glow.
[The Magician] smiled as he looked at [The World] and the Goddess of Class Change, Janna.
"Well, well, it's been quite some time since we last crossed paths. The fact that you actually managed to bring down [The Sun] is truly beyond my wildest expectations. I must concede, the two of you did have a bit of luck.
Said [The Magician,] as the smile on his face quickly vanished.
"But your luck ends now. I will absolutely see to your annihilation. However, you needn't worry, I intend to torment you slowly, ensuring you find no easy escape." he added, his voice laced with malice.

No sooner had he finished speaking, [The Magician] snapped his fingers. Immediately, one searing flame after another began to plummet rapidly from the boundless sky, their target unmistakably "The World" and the Goddess of Class Change, Janna.
