Chapter 2526:
"Spatial artifacts, even super props, may also be influenced by the game." Xu Huo said, and this was not speculation but a fact.
Because super props have limitations during use, this limitation is essentially a safeguard within the game. It not only restricts players from using the props excessively but also to some extent reduces the consumption of the props.
"Since the super dungeon hasn’t opened and the game channel hasn’t been cut off, logically, the tickets should work to get out." Players from District 001 definitely wouldn’t be restricted by other instances upon entering.
"Did you use the tickets on the Dimension Train?" the middle-aged man asked.
"Just because you can use props in a location doesn’t mean the tickets can definitely be used there. There are such restrictions near the track, and this venue still has these restrictions. Otherwise, how could it be called a super prop? Ultimately, the tickets are just a special spatial teleportation prop, so it’s not surprising the game restricts it in specific places."
"Then I’m confused," Xu Huo said. "Does your Small Inversion Ring only allow travel through spaces where tickets cannot be used? That super player from District 001 didn’t copy this prop just to limit you, right?"
The middle-aged man fell silent.
Of course, this isn’t difficult to understand. Since the super dungeon no longer has an owner, the authorization doesn’t work temporarily. Even if multiple spaces exist here, they haven’t left the game at all, so players who come in can still use tickets to escape — which isn’t necessarily a good thing for District 001, because if they can come and go, other players can as well. Super players would surely prefer their own people to inherit the dungeon and its treasures. So they especially locked the spaces where tickets are unusable for District 001 players, giving them the Small Inversion Ring, allowing them to enter and exit these spaces to train and explore inheriting the dungeon.
Presumably, the entrances and exits of the super dungeon are also in such venues... As for the entrances being blocked, that’s simply bad luck on their part.
"Why doesn’t he just give them all the good stuff directly?" asked the Girl in the painting curiously.
The middle-aged man had no intention of answering, so Xu Huo thought for a moment and said, "There might be some particular restrictions. Besides, if all the good stuff in the dungeon is taken away, is it still a super dungeon?"
There must be some special operating rules in the super dungeon that need special props to maintain; it’s just that since the dungeon is stalled, they’re not having any effect.
"Then does he know where all the good stuff is here?" the Girl in the painting asked again, looking very excited.

"I also found some information about the tower from some travel guides, and it’s an Artifact Maker’s creation. Although it cannot be moved, its entirety can be compared to advanced items. Those who control metal or artifacts that originated here are likely hidden there."
"As long as you don’t carry metal objects, balloons won’t get shot down flying up."
"Do you mean to use balloons to carry chemical solvents into the city center and then destroy the landmark tower?" Xu Huo picked up his line of thought.
Bubble Bean nodded, "These specially made balloons can fly at low altitudes, and when there’s a gust of wind within the city, they’ll naturally float to the city center."
He patted a pile of prop balloons beside him that hadn’t been inflated yet. "I’ve tested it; these balloons are not within the metal’s attack range."
"As for the chemical solvents, I’ve acquired enough of them."
To limit players, the container props in the game are often very stingy. Some can accommodate specific people or items, but containers for storing food and water are not only few in number but also very small, not even surpassing basic luggage compartments.
But Bubble Bean’s target is only the tower, a relatively small range, so the implementation isn’t too difficult.
"I have a few glass container props that will work just fine, and for the rest, ordinary bottles will do." Bubble Bean planned well. "As long as the number is sufficient, destroying the landmark tower won’t be a problem."
"This method could work..." Xu Huo paused, "But have you considered if the one who controls metal doesn’t rely on the tower, doing so might only enrage him?"
Bubble Bean evidently understood this point too. "Or you could interrogate that player first?"
Xu Huo returned to the Girl in the painting and truthfully relayed Bubble Bean’s plan. "Although it’s a rather clumsy plan and slow to take effect, since we are trapped here, we have all the time in the world. If destroying the landmark tower doesn’t work, we can continue destroying other parts of the city center, and then the entire city."
"When all the metal in the city has dissolved, I think we should be able to meet him."
The middle-aged man’s face grew increasingly grim. He had a purpose in coming here, but he never considered destroying this city, destroying parts of the super dungeon venues to complete the task seemed too contradictory to their goal. What they wanted was for the super dungeon to be preserved intact and then let District 001 players inherit!
"Looks like you also think this plan isn’t bad." Xu Huo smiled, "Then let’s do it this way."
As he said this, he opened the Mental Portal and was about to leave when the middle-aged man spoke, "You won’t be able to do it. Once it realizes your intention, it will kill you at any cost immediately."
"And you’ll never be able to kill it."
"So, the opponent is an intelligent artifact born from this venue," Xu Huo stated, "What do you want to take from its grasp?"
The middle-aged man seemed to have compromised. He pondered for a moment and said, "You’re right. What I’m looking for is indeed a spatial teleportation device."
He said, taking out a transparent ring that looked like glass, "This spatial teleportation device is called the Small Inversion Ring, specifically created by a master for entering and exiting dungeon spaces. As the name suggests, inversion means swapping the positions of people in two different spaces, but it can only be used within the dungeon venue, not connected to District 001."
Xu Huo looked at that seemingly unremarkable ring emanating spatial power. The middle-aged man said the "Small Inversion Ring" could only be used within the venue. Yet they entered through a space tunnel opened by players under Valen. Even if there were internal conflicts, the district government wouldn’t watch all their elites perish in the relic area. Could it be the prop Valen had was similar in function to the "Small Inversion Ring?"
"Is the Small Inversion Ring a replica? Is there an original here?"
The middle-aged man nodded, "Although the Small Inversion Ring is rare, it’s ultimately just a regular spatial artifact. It is restricted by the game, and after entering a space where the game channel is blocked, it can’t be used. Moreover, its spatial swap is random, so I’m now pinning my hopes on the original artifact."
