165  Startling All Parties

A few moments before the Palace of Horrors' final events, the World of Promise was in a state of alarm. The factions belonging to all core powers turned their sights towards the Novice Zone, many of them having looks of unease and curiosity, while uncertainty now loomed over those directly related to the problem.

These core forces from Earth and the various worlds whose geniuses had entered the beginner dungeon had also started to show drastic movements because of a startling scene in the Novice Zone.

Looking towards the sky of one of its most famous beginner villages, the Winfrey Village, one would notice that the blue portal connecting to another world was glowing in a menacing color, almost as if it were corrupted. If one looked at the sky, they would notice that it had now transitioned to a dark hue as even the stars, vaguely visible during the daytime, had vanished.
