Chapter 430: with translation of chapter title

Congratulations on helping to defeat enemy Guo Xun Lv. 37; you will earn experience based on your contribution in this battle.

Translation: "Congratulations on assisting in killing the enemy Guo Xun Lv. 37; you will receive experience points corresponding to your contribution in this battle."

We already crafted: 【6】 Remember to keep numbers exactly as Lv. 37. Also, Guo Xun is a name—it's an enemy name. Should we translate it? It's a person's name (enemy). According to the rules, we should romanize the name: Guo Xun. So "enemy Guo Xun Lv. 37". Keep Lv. 37.

Thus line: "Congratulations on assisting in killing the enemy Guo Xun Lv. 37; you will receive experience points corresponding to your contribution in this battle."

Make sure it's one line.

Congratulations on landing the final blow! You will receive extra experience bonus.

Translation: "Congratulations on landing the last hit! You will gain extra experience bonus!"

We decided to output the congratulations message: "Congratulations on landing the Last Hit! You will gain extra experience bonus!"

But we need to keep exclamation marks.

Thus: "Congratulations on landing the Last Hit! You will gain extra experience bonus!"

Level increased to Lv. 31!

Translation: "Level increased to Lv. 31!"

Level increased to Lv. 32!

Translation: "Level increased to Lv. 32!"

The only thrill in this process was still what Xi Ren Sheng brought to that man.

Translation: "The only thrill in this process was what Xi Ren Sheng brought to that man."

The only thrill in this process was still what Xi Ren Sheng brought to that man.

Ying Duo's ability can open people's doors anytime and anywhere, but it also has a downside: it must make contact before it can work.

Translation: "Ying Duo's ability can open people's doors anytime, anywhere, but it also has a downside: it must make contact before it can work."

Ying Duo's ability can open people's doors anytime and anywhere, but it also has a downside: it must make contact before it can work.

He's actually a ranged shooter, ah......

Translation: "He's actually a ranged shooter, you know......"

He's actually a ranged shooter, ah......

But maybe better: "He's actually a ranged shooter, ah......"

Although the plan had just been decided on the spur of the moment, Yang Yixie still found himself thinking deeply.

Translation: "Although the plan just now was hastily decided, Yang Yixie still couldn't help but ponder deeply."

The main thing was that being hit and flying into the wall really hurt.

Translation: "The main thing was that being blown away and hitting the wall really hurt."

The main thing was that being hit and flying into the wall really hurt.

His position in the Field Operations Department should still be pretty high, right?

Translation: ""This person's status in the Field Operations Department should still be pretty high, right?""

Xi Ren Sheng watched the man standing near Ying Duo's feet, seeing Ying Duo shake off the blood sprayed on the gun muzzle; when he realized it wouldn't come off cleanly, he simply wiped it twice on that man's body on the ground.

Translation: "Xi Ren Sheng watched the man at Ying Duo's feet, seeing Ying Duo shake the blood splattered on the gun muzzle; finding it couldn't be shaken off cleanly, he simply wiped it twice on the man's body on the ground."

Xi Ren Sheng looked at the man beside Ying Duo's feet, only to see Ying Duo shake the blood splattered on the gun muzzle; realizing it couldn't be shaken off cleanly, he simply wiped it twice on that man's body on the ground.

Maybe.

Translation: ""Maybe.""

Yang Yixie isn't concerned about that; even if the rank were higher, could it surpass his deputy department head position?

Translation: "Yang Yixie didn't care about that; no matter how high the rank, could it be higher than his position as deputy department head?"

His behavior was basically an open slap to the Face of the Field Operations Department; since the entire Dome is controlled by the three department heads of Field Operations, Intelligence, and Mutation, would Fang Zhiyan possibly turn against the Field Operations Department for his sake?

Translation: "His behavior was basically openly slapping the Face of the Field Operations Department; since the entire Heavenly Dome City is controlled by the three department heads of Field Operations, Intelligence, and Mutation, would Fang Zhiyan possibly go against the Field Operations Department for his sake?"

If Fang Zhiyan can only reduce the punishment falling on him, perhaps that would be the best outcome.

Translation: "If Fang Zhiyan can only mitigate the punishment falling on him, perhaps that would be the best outcome."

That should be quite high; this guy seems able to predict a few seconds ahead, probably a sorcerer dealing with the law of fate.

Translation: ""That should be pretty high; this guy seems able to predict a few seconds into the future, likely a Special Ability Practitioner involved with the law of fate.""

Since discovering that this world has seven distinct laws and that his own sorcery seems to involve one of them, Xi Ren Sheng has worked out the interplay among the seven laws.

Translation: "After discovering that this world has seven different laws, and that his own aberrant art seems to involve one of them, Xi Ren Sheng figured out the relationships of interests among the seven laws."

Given that both have comparable command of the laws, Xi Ren Sheng's chaos ought to be weaker than Fate.

Translation: "When the two have comparable mastery of the laws, Xi Ren Sheng's chaos should be weaker than fate."

No matter how chaotic, you can't escape Fate's guaranteed strike.

Translation: "No matter how chaotic, one cannot escape fate's 'certain hit'."

Chaos can wander off at will in this process, but once Fate locks on, the result will still be as Fate decreed.

Translation: "In this process, chaos can be escaped at will, but as long as fate finally locks on, the outcome will still be as fate wrote."

But unfortunately, that person's grasp of the law of fate is likely only superficial; only then can Xi Ren Sheng fully draw that person into his chaos, giving him a firm hold, allowing Ying Duo to deliver a killing blow.

Translation: "But unfortunately, that person's understanding of the law of fate is likely only superficial; Xi Ren Sheng can fully draw that person into his chaos, thereby hard-controlling them there, allowing Ying Duo to land a one-hit kill."

We've been held up here for quite a while, haven't we? The authorities still haven't rescued the people? Not a hint of activity.

Translation: ""We've also wasted quite a bit of time here, haven't we? Officials still haven't rescued the people? Not a hint of movement?""

Xi Ren Sheng always likes to fish in troubled waters amid chaos; they've stirred up such a big commotion here, so why is everywhere else as silent as a grave?

Translation: "Xi Ren Sheng has always preferred to fish in troubled waters in a chaotic scene, yet they've caused such a huge commotion here—how can other places remain as silent as the dead?"

————————————————

We need to output the line as is? The line is just a separator. We should translate? It's just a line of dashes. According to rules, we must translate everything; but it's not text with meaning. Probably we keep the same line of dashes. So output: "【24】 ————————————————"

No, no.

Translation: "No, no."

Contrary to what Xi Ren Sheng thought, even earlier elsewhere, that man was still heading toward them when the clash between the authorities and the Field Operations Department had already erupted.

Translation: "Unlike what Xi Ren Sheng thought, even in other places, before that man was on his way over here, the conflict between the authorities and the Field Operations Department had already broken out."

Fang Zhiyan didn't entirely keep information from Han Huan; in fact, he didn't need to disclose much, since Han Huan had already detected the undead's movements.

Translation: "Fang Zhiyan wasn't completely withholding information from Han Huan, or rather, there was no need for him to divulge much; Han Huan had already sensed the movements of the Undead."

As fellow department heads of the Dome, Han Huan's strength and means are certainly no less than Fang Zhiyan's.

Translation: "As fellow department heads of the Dome, Han Huan's strength and methods are in no way inferior to Fang Zhiyan's."

The undead want to draw the Dome's main forces elsewhere? All right, then he'll do exactly as they wish.

Translation: "The Undead want to lure the Dome's main forces elsewhere? Fine, then he'll do just as they wish."

Once equipped with the rune weapons supplied by the Arms R&D Department, ordinary troops have indeed become a major asset to the Dome's Field Operations Department, and many duties—including the daily security of Heavenly Dome City—can be handed over to them.

Translation: "After being equipped with rune weapons provided by the Arms R&D Department, ordinary troops indeed became a major aid to the Dome's Field Operations Department, and even many tasks and the daily security work of Heavenly Dome City could be handed over to them."

But the genuine elite units remain made up of a small number of sorcerers capable of wielding sorcery, and Han Huan has long stationed them near the undead's detention area.

Translation: "But the true elite units are still composed of the few Special Ability Practitioners who can wield aberrant arts, and Han Huan had long arranged them in advance near the grounds where the Undead are detained."

A wind blade came from the end of the hallway, cutting the lock and half of the iron door in half.

Translation: "A Wind Blade sliced down from the end of the corridor, cutting the door lock together with half of the iron door into two halves."

Those inside were startled by the noise and recoiled; a moment later they saw the figure at the door wasn't the usual white‑coated staff or someone in Dome blast‑proof gear, but a woman wearing dark‑gray combat clothing.

Translation: "The people inside were startled by the commotion and shrank back; the next second, they saw that the person standing at the doorway was not the usual white-coated staff, nor someone in Dome explosive-proof gear, but a woman wearing dark-gray combat fatigues."

Her right hand remained in the slashing pose, fingers slightly apart.

Translation: "Her right hand still held the chopping gesture, fingers slightly spread."

Come out!

Translation: ""Come out!""

The prisoners paused briefly, then started to flow out.

Translation: "The people in the cell staggered for a moment, then began to surge outward."

The white disposable uniforms stretched in a line down the dim hallway; someone tripped, got up without a sound, and kept running.

Translation: "White disposable uniforms stretched across the dim corridor; someone fell, got up without even crying out, and kept running."

The woman stood at the door, directing the streaming people to the left.

Translation: "The woman stood at the doorway, guiding the flowing crowd to the left."

That way, head over there—someone will meet you!

Translation: ""Over there, go that way—someone will meet you!""

Her voice was nearly lost amid the clamor of footsteps and shouts, but they grasped her gesture and started running left down the hallway.

Translation: "Her voice was almost drowned out by the noisy footsteps and shouts, but those people understood her gesture and began running left down the corridor."

At the far end of the hallway, another man in dark‑gray combat attire was standing by to receive them.

Translation: "At the corridor's end, another man in dark-gray combat fatigues was standing by to receive them."

He shoved each newcomer up the stairs one by one, sweat pouring down his forehead; the exit was simply too distant for them to reach on foot, since the Dome's forces had already arrived.

Translation: "He pushed the incoming people one by one up the stairs; his forehead was drenched in sweat, the exit was truly too far—these people could never run that far, because the Dome's personnel had already arrived."

They weren't rushing in from outside; it was more like they'd been lying in wait here all along.

Translation: "They weren't rushing in from outside; it was more like they had been lying in ambush here ahead of time."

At their head was a tall man, who glanced at the fleeing white shapes in the corridor, then at the woman standing by the cell door.

Translation: "Leading them was a tall man, who glanced at the white figures fleeing down the corridor, then at the woman standing at the cell doorway."

"Kill." he said.

Translation: ""Kill." he said."

Those behind him sprang into action.

Translation: "The people behind him moved."

But their aim wasn't the gray‑clad officials; it was the escaping white silhouettes.

Translation: "But their target was not the officials in gray combat fatigues, but the white figures fleeing."

The wind‑blade woman reacted swiftly, tracing a circle with both hands in the air to erect a spinning wind wall behind the undead; energy bolts hitting it produced a puff‑puff‑puff sound.

Translation: "The Wind Blade woman reacted quickly; she drew a circle in the air with both hands, and a spinning wind wall rose behind the Undead, energy bolts striking the wall making a puff-puff-puff sound."

Her face blanched a bit; she was one of the first to awaken sorcery, but even then her skill still couldn't compare to those who constantly deal with anomalies in this world.

Translation: "Her face paled slightly; she was among the earliest to awaken aberrant arts, yet even so, her proficiency with aberrant arts still couldn't match that of those who constantly deal with mutations in this world."

"I can't hold out much longer!" she yelled.

Translation: ""I can't hold on much longer!" she shouted."

The man at the stairwell heard her, shoved the last white silhouette up the stairs, then turned, drew a rune‑inscribed short dagger from his belt, and rushed to stand beside the wind‑blade woman.

Translation: "The man at the stairwell heard her, pushed the last white figure up the stairs, then turned and drew a short knife etched with runes from his waist, rushing to stand beside the Wind Blade woman."

"Three minutes—just keep them at bay for three minutes."

Translation: ""Three minutes, just hold them off for three minutes.""

The wind‑blade woman clenched her teeth and thrust forth another wind wall.

Translation: "The Wind Blade woman gritted her teeth and pushed out another wind wall."

The tall man shoved his hand forward, and an invisible force slammed into the wind‑blade woman's wind wall.

Translation: "The tall man thrust his hand forward; an invisible energy struck the Wind Blade woman's wind wall."

The wind wall broke apart cleanly; the wind‑blade woman was hurled back by the energy's backlash, coughing up blood.

Translation: "The wind wall shattered cleanly; the Wind Blade woman was blown backward by the energy's aftermath, spitting out a mouthful of blood."

The man at the stairwell swung his short dagger and surged forward; the runes on its blade flared, dark red light coalescing at the tip and drawing a smooth red line through the air.

Translation: "The man at the stairwell brandished his short knife and charged forward; the runes on the blade all lit up, dark-red light condensed at the tip, tracing a smooth red line in the air."

His motions were far smoother than the wind‑blade woman's, as if refined by years of practice; seeing this, the tall man raised an eyebrow and sidestepped to avoid the blow.

Translation: "His movements were much smoother than the Wind Blade woman's, as if honed over years of training; seeing this, the tall man raised an eyebrow, sidestepped to avoid the strike."

"This move...... you're not an undead, are you?"

Translation: ""This move...... you're not an Undead, are you?""

Before the undead showed up, they'd been secretly dealing with the church; after just a brief exchange, the tall man sensed something was wrong.

Translation: "Before the Undead appeared, they had been secretly dealing with the Church; after only a brief skirmish, the tall man realized something was off."

No wonder this group of Undead dared to come rescue people—turns out the Church was secretly backing them.
