Number One Dungeon Supplier

Yet, that historical feat was not backed up with proper shreds of evidence and no one had been able to replicate it. There were, however, several ancient records that speak of such size but none of them were able to substantiate nor replicate it.

But what Jin was more curious about was what Kraft had said. Whether it was just a passing comment that he tried to be witty or there was something he wished to say it out loud. "Mind saying that again?"

"The book that was once filled with words were all wiped clean," Kraft said that he was explaining it literally and to prove that, he passed the book to Jin to see. "There is some residual void energy on it and it seems like, it\'s a magical tome. Stuff that some magicians carry to date even though most people had already transited to electrical copies."

"So, the void energy had wiped out all the magic in it?" Jin asked as he felt some void energy within the tome. It was not an old book by any means and the papers were still rather fresh for a grimoire. He sat up properly and tried to put some Maqi energy into the grimoire, hoping to see some effects from it.

But try as it may, the pages continued to remain blank. There were no traces of the written magical words on it. It was ultimately a lost cause trying to get it fixed and there was nothing Jin could do about it. He was not god almighty and even this mishap that had happened over Rome was something that he did not expect at all.

All he could say was that he did his best to salvage the situation while earning some extra cash from this. Sure, it might cost a pretty penny for the government of Italy, especially for the Prime Minister but at the very least, everything turned out well and he believed the Prime Minister would be getting some boost in ratings despite the incident that had happened.

After all, as much as the mass media would likely harp on this situation for at least a week or two, the most important thing that people would judge against the government was its response to such national emergencies.

So yes sure, people may ask why such a situation had happened and how things could have been prevented but so far, as long as the government response was swift and surgical in nature, healing the root cause to the best of their ability, the nation would not judge them that badly.

At the same time, Jin also really got lucky as he never thought that pushing sufficient magical energy to kickstart their cores was the key to their awakening. He assumed it was not a big deal and perhaps the hospitals and clinics would already have figured it out.

But he was wrong.

All the hospitals were doing standard protocols and were deducing other possible causes of the state of unconsciousness compared to Jin whose ways were not exactly medical in nature. Plus, it was not easy to inject magical energy through the bodies and into the cores. The person who was doing that would need a bountiful amount of energy to do so.

And as Panda NPCs, all of them had Peppers\' magical crystals to aid them.

That was why the NPCs were not as easily fatigued as the people would have thought. And for the fact that people were also attempting to contribute their magical auras, it could not amount to anything compared to the amount of energy that the NPCs were dishing out.

It\'s like those samaritans were contributing 0.5%-1% of the needed magical energy to kickstart the core. But instead of dismissing them straight, the Panda NPCs thanked them and encouraged them to help as well. It was better that they contribute and feel that they were doing something important so that they would not feel left out of this situation.

It was through a community effort that the people of Rome would be able to get out of this positively rather than think that this was a disaster that they could not cope or overcome.

And with this method, people who got out of the dimensional instance would brag that they helped each other, working hand in hand like how humans should be doing rather than taking advantage of one another.

This situation would eventually allow the people of Rome to define themselves and make themselves proud to be able to overcome this situation together. To be honest, Jin did not think that far but when he felt that this was a social experiment which he could afford to attempt due to the scale, he and the System decided to give it a go.

Of course, the idea did not come with a snap of the finger but through some observation Jin felt it was worthy to consider this as an experiment. Because, if the Italians could do it, why not his own race when push comes to shove?

Sure, there must be certain factors in place to spur people to do such acts but Jin believed that if the conditions were right, people would not only think for themselves but also for others too. Jin just needs to know which factor or what criteria he could make use of and it all depends on the situation.

But back to the book, Jin could see the lethality of the Void Beings and at the same time, see their potential. He felt that they might actually be the solution to a problem that had been bugging him ever since he was stuck in the Synthesis World. Perhaps he or his minions had talked about it before but it did not ring a bell until recently.

The empty pages on the books also gave him more assurances that they would not just be the solution but also the key in ensuring their survival should a particular …race come to disturb their sense of peace.

The Celestials.

As divine as they might be, the Void Beings were the total opposite of them. Not the Demons from the Hell Plane. Sure, the Demons might have clashed with the Celestials on multiple occasions and also had invented spells to counteract divine and celestial magic.

But the more Jin tried to wrap the properties of the Void Energy, the more he felt that Void Beings were the natural enemies of the Celestials.

At the same time, there could be a reason as to why the Celestials might not have disrupted the peace in Jin\'s World mainly due to the fact that the Void Beings was practically a veil of the realm away protecting his world. What\'s more, it might not have been a coincidence that the Void World was the closest parallel world to Jin\'s.

After all, ever since the advent of resurrection had begun, there were historical and modern records that stated that resurrection might not always work despite professional strict protocols that had been in place to regulate and reduce illegal resurrections from happening. The latter was the problem that Jin felt that was the reason why there was a Void World to begin with.

Because as resurrection goes awry, the soul does not return to the karmic cycle of life as most had theorised and with some basis on that. This was because the soul had deviated from the karmic cycle of life and was forcefully pulled out from that cycle for the resurrection to succeed.

So, if the soul that had been plucked out of the karmic cycle, and it failed to go to a host body, what would happen to it?

It will either be stuck in Jin\'s World or lurk around as a ghost. Be it vengeful or not, that was not one Jin would have known. But there were also instances where the soul was not able to be fully materialised into the earth\'s physical realm. So where could it go?

The metaphysical one.

That was where Jin believed that those lost souls would turn to. Eventually, the more souls stuck in between the living and dead, this \'stuck\' place becomes a realm, and subsequently a world of its own.

Of course, when Jin presented this theory to the System, it felt sceptical about it but could not deny that Jin\'s theory might have some weight to it. That was why, Jin\'s goal for protecting his World from the celestial was not more ample preparation. Sure, they needed that too but more importantly, the experiment to see if Void Beings would be effective against a Celestial.

But if they do not have any Celestials to exploit, the closest they could get might potentially be a former Hell being. And an Elder Hell Being too.

Who else could it be but Baal, their former Demopolis King.
