The game has become a real alternate world

Chapter 1058 - 739: Divine Gate Crisis

The quota has been lifted.This news swept across the Lebia Continent like a whirlwind, reaching almost everyone’s ears.

Those who originally qualified to become a Night Watcher but couldn’t due to the limited slots almost swarmed the Night Watcher office location.

In just one week, the number of Night Watchers skyrocketed to a hundred thousand.

"It’s not going to work, we need to stop immediately, the new recruits camp is about to burst!" Blake rushed into Kana’s office, anxiously advising.

"What’s going on?"

Kana had recently been overwhelmed with affairs, busy beyond belief. Ever since the Night Watcher quota was lifted, tasks flooded in like a tide, filling the office.

Even Kana, who usually adhered to a hands-off approach, had to personally engage in the overwhelming workload. The staff were even busier, barely touching the ground, exhausted and out of breath.

"There are too many new recruits! The training camp instructors are about to point their fingers at me and scold." Blake said with a bitter face, "They wish they could take a knife to chop me, believing I’m deliberately trying to harm them, wanting to exhaust them to death with recruits."

"It’s my lack of foresight, I’ll handle it." Kana said, rubbing his temples.

Blake nodded and quickly ran out again, his own tasks were also like a tangled mess.

Kana, exhausted, rubbed his forehead and reached out to grab something from himself, and a puppet appeared before him. This was his clone puppet, but the puppet had no face, presenting itself in alchemy silver.

"Leave these tasks to you, do a good job." Kana instructed the puppet.

The alchemy puppet nodded.

Only then did Kana return to his room.

Alyris, dressed in thin garments, gently approached, embracing Kana tenderly. Typically wearing armor, her perfect figure wasn’t apparent, but now in this thin, form-fitting attire, her curves were fully revealed.

"Your Highness..." A faint pink aura quietly spread through the room.

After a round of intimacy, the outside world had grown dark. The faint moonlight trickled through the window, gently scattering on the floor.

Kana sat by the bed in shorts, his upper body bare. Alyris lay on his back, a soft touch coming from behind. She leaned close to Kana’s ear, gently exhaling, "Did this make you feel a bit more awake?"

Upon hearing this, Kana displayed a smile, reaching out to pull Alyris from behind him to his front, hugging her tightly.

"Where did you learn this from? I really underestimated you." He lightly tapped Alyris’s nose as he spoke.

Though the two were already intimately familiar with each other, Alyris remained shy in front of Kana. Of course, this shyness was exclusive to being with Kana. On the battlefield, she was the bloodthirsty Valkyrie who made enemies tremble.

"Within me, an Apostle of Desire is sealed." Alyris whispered.

That Desire Incense Burner had long disappeared, and the Apostle was thoroughly abandoned.

Now it had no intention of resisting, like a soulless being. In the years of being imprisoned by Alyris’s soul, with Alyris’s ever-growing strength, the Apostle’s power had been almost completely depleted, on the verge of death.

Its knowledge was entirely seized by Alyris and applied to Kana.

Kana gave a thumbs up, evaluating, "Good!"

"But honestly, thanks to you, I indeed feel a bit sharper. Becoming a god... is fraught with peril at every step." Kana sighed.

Since making a wish a week ago, the gate to the Divine Domain fully opened. However, the power from within made Kana wary.

The chilling emotional atmosphere was the only thing that frightened him. Once stepping into the Divine Domain, it seemed only rationality remained, with emotions being stripped away.

This was not what Kana desired; to him, ascension shouldn’t be like this.

There were various ways to cross the gate. In the Star Realm, there were methods like faith, power, understanding, armor, and substitutes. Whether through legitimate or corrupt means, the objective was to cross the Divine Gate.

Each method had its advantages and disadvantages.

For example, becoming a god through faith was advantageous because the process was relatively stable. By earnestly developing believers and condensing one’s divine status, while leveraging the power of rules, there was sufficient confidence to push open the gate.

Forcefully pushing open the gate with sheer power was a simple, crude way, applicable only to certain races and special situations.

Becoming a god through understanding required a deep insight into the composition of power and one’s own rules, truly comprehending the mysteries that could open the gate. This method took a long time and required appropriate channels to understand related rules.

Kana chose to cross the Divine Gate through understanding.

But problems followed; the process of understanding often accompanied the dominance of rationality.

When crossing the Divine Gate, rationality would prevail, and as power continued to grow, it would completely dominate everything.

By then, unless there were special emotional ties or entities, there would hardly be anything to cause emotional fluctuations for Kana.

This was akin to being a robot.

In the game, this might not have seemed particularly notable, but in the real world, it became a thorny issue.

Before Kana’s crossing, although players in the game couldn’t become gods, they could see NPC gods and related background stories.

Among these stories were those who prioritized rationality and were emotionless; they were the "robots" devoid of emotions.

Kana had no experience to draw from here and could only explore on his own.

Thus, he needed to ensure that his emotions remained predominant after opening the Divine Gate.

Fortunately, in this world, his emotions had always been rich. If it weren’t for the overly intense impact after opening the gate earlier, he wouldn’t have faced emotional indifference.

In fact, his ability to resist the Evil God’s corruption was thanks to his rich and unique emotions.

During this time, immersed in interactions with Alyris, his emotions grew increasingly delicate and abundant.

Alyris, Bobo, Blake, Bugreit... these people and the entire Night Watcher organization were gradually becoming the emotional anchors in Kana’s heart.

The essence of divinity was to wield the rules of the world and even the Star Realm. But rules were cold and merciless. Controlling rules with intelligent life could grant supreme power, yet one must pay the corresponding price.

These emotional anchors were the key to maintaining emotional stability.

"Right now, you are the most beautiful gem in my heart." Kana gazed at Alyris with deep affection, gently caressing her smooth skin.

Alyris’s face blushed a rosy hue. Though they had been together for years, Her Highness’s allure never diminished for her.

By her understanding, old couples shouldn’t be blushing so easily at this stage, yet she couldn’t help but feel her heart race, finding herself helpless.

In front of Kana, Alyris remained passive, sometimes desiring to take the initiative. But whenever this happened, at the sight of Kana, she couldn’t help but soften.

That useless Apostle of Desire, the knowledge in her mind was utterly unhelpful.

"Trash, trash Evil God." Alyris murmured softly.

Confronted with Kana’s affectionate words, Alyris’s face turned even redder.

And Kana loved to see Alyris’s continued shyness over the years, couldn’t resist teasing her further.

He thought to himself that this was all to make his emotions richer, yes, that’s right.

Alyris reached a peak of shyness, suddenly pushing Kana onto the bed, then climbing on top.

Her bold nature became even bolder the shyer she became.

"Where’s the Female Knight now?"

Kana continued to tease.

Before he could finish speaking, his mouth was sealed by Alyris.
