Chapter 309: Forbidden Crystal! The work of the Demon Race! Isolated and helpless!

"What do you mean? You should explain clearly."

"Dean Xue, now is not the time for jokes. What exactly is the situation?" Hua Qianshuang also asked in a deep voice.

Xue Jiulan had no intention of keeping them in suspense.

She played the message on the big screen for everyone to see and explained:

"The first batch of mobile units has already rushed to the central area, only to find an unknown barrier in the peripheral area that they simply cannot enter."

"According to instrument detection, the space energy inside the barrier is chaotic, and space rifts may appear at any time."

Speaking of this, Xue Jiulan's tone had become particularly cold.

"Moreover, a large amount of aura from the Outer Abyss has been detected in the space."

The expressions of several people changed wildly.

"Are you saying that this area is about to evolve into a dungeon?"

Xue Jiulan nodded: "Currently, it is highly likely to be a Level 30 dungeon, with an entry restriction of Level 25 to 35."

"Impossible!" Hua Qianshuang interrupted coldly, "The Bone-Splitting Larva is a Level 47 monster; the entry restriction cannot be that different."

"Normal evolution is indeed impossible," Xue Jiulan said in a deep voice, her eyes carrying a dangerous gaze. "What if there is interference from the Abyss Demon Race?"

"That's even more impossible!" Wang Shihui slammed the table and scolded angrily, "Xue Jiulan, what time is it that you're still talking nonsense? There has been no abnormality from the Abyss Vortex, and no one has used an Abyss Crystal. How could the Abyss Demon Race reach into my Dragon Nation?"

Xue Jiulan did not answer but let her brain run at high speed, thinking of countermeasures.

Seeing this, several people felt a jolt; they all had the answer in their hearts.

The Abyss Vortex was the only way for human practitioners to go to the Outer Abyss.

That place was heavily guarded, and the Outer Abyss side of the vortex even had fortresses built by human pioneers. If there were any abnormalities in the vortex, it was impossible for them not to have heard a single whisper.

Then, it could only be that someone had used an Abyss Crystal without authorization.

An Abyss Crystal was a prop that could only be dropped by a Primal Dungeon Lord; it could summon monsters of the same race as the dropped lord from the Outer Abyss.

At first, because the summoned monsters were powerful, it was well-received.

Until one time, while summoning monsters, an unimaginable Abyss tribe crawled out from the rift.

There were no top practitioners present at the scene, and it caused almost devastating damage to the local area.

Later research revealed that the Abyss rift led directly to the Outer Abyss, and any monster could step into Blue Star through the rift.

Later, top practitioners from the Research Institute made a move, which limited the flaw of monsters passing through the crystal rift at will.

However, even if they couldn't pass through, some monsters could still use means to cause other trouble for Blue Star; this point could never be avoided.

Therefore, the Abyss Crystal was renamed the Forbidden Crystal by the Federation.

Unless permitted by the Federation, all practitioners are forbidden from using it!

"Who has such guts to use a Forbidden Crystal?" Wang Shihui slammed the table and said furiously.

Hua Qianshuang was also livid and asked:

"Does Dean Xue mean that you know who used the Forbidden Crystal?"

"I know, but now is not the time to talk about this."

Xue Jiulan fiercely recorded a grudge against the Yan family in her heart.

After this matter, she would use all her power to make the Yan family disappear.

No evidence?

So what?

"The most important thing now is how to rescue these examinees."

Xue Jiulan pointed to the transparent barrier on the big screen.

"Because of the randomness of the Forbidden Crystal, the Abyss Demon Race doesn't have reaction time every time."

"They finally seized this opportunity, and instead of playing other tricks, they created a large dungeon out of thin air for our Dragon Nation."

Speaking of this, Xue Jiulan's expression became extremely ugly, and she continued:

"Creating a dungeon has only one purpose: to block outside rescue. Once broken through by our Dragon Nation, it will instead become a resource for our Dragon Nation."

Su Changqing took up the thread and said in a deep voice: "It means they believe the practitioners inside simply cannot clear this dungeon!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the scene became silent, with only heavy breathing sounding frequently.

After a long time, Xue Jiulan spoke again:

"The dungeon has a limit of one hundred people; once entered, you cannot leave the dungeon until you kill the final lord."

"I have already ordered those mobile units to suspend operations and have issued a call for help to the Federation, summoning top practitioners under Level 35 from across the country."

"In about an hour, these practitioners will be able to arrive here."

"For now, we can only rely on these examinees themselves." Xue Jiulan rubbed her temples, forcing herself to calm down. "Currently, these examinees should be able to hold out for a while longer."

She had one more difficult matter that she hadn't told everyone.

Li Yao's current position was already close to the central area.

With his level, he could completely enter the dungeon.

What made Xue Jiulan struggle was:

Should she send someone to stop Li Yao?

Xue Jiulan was roughly aware of Li Yao's strength.

Even if it were true as Wang Shihui said, those area-of-effect skills were all ultimate moves and were still in cooldown,

But he still had a Dragon-race summon; his strength was definitely the ceiling among the examinees! ===== CHAPTER 311 =====
