Chapter 232: An Unprecedented Secret Realm: Heretics Must Die!

"I'll explain the mission for Secret Realm No. 7 first!"

Old Liu suddenly said, "In Secret Realm No. 7, what you'll face won't be monsters, but various heretical humans!"

Hearing the word heretic, Chen Ye's eyes flickered.

He recalled helping Qin Muyin complete the mission in Secret Realm No. 30. In that pirate world, they had encountered someone defined by the secret realm as a heretic.

The so-called heretic, in essence, was a transmigrator.

In that pirate world, the transmigrator possessed incredible abilities, capable of bringing Gear 5 Luffy from two years into the future to the Paramount War.

Not only that, but the transmigrator also restored the old and ailing Whitebeard to his peak condition, making him overwhelmingly powerful.

If it weren't for Chen Ye's strength, relying solely on Qin Muyin, they would've been easily defeated and unable to return.

"Teacher, what are heretical humans?"

A student asked.

Old Liu thought for a moment and replied, "Heretical humans are essentially non-native residents of the world, outsiders. Simply put, they are people from another world who, through some chance event, ended up in the secret realm."

"It's said that someone once captured a heretic alive and learned from them that they prefer to call themselves transmigrators."

Hearing this, many people were shocked.

A student immediately commented, "Doesn't that sound a lot like us? For the secret realm's world, we're also outsiders."

"It is indeed quite similar!" Old Liu nodded and continued, "However, there's a key difference. We don't stay in the secret realm for long; we leave after completing our objectives. Heretics, on the other hand, stay in the secret realm for extended periods, sometimes permanently, and they can cause irreversible damage to the world. I believe this is why the secret realm assigns us the task of eliminating them."

"So, our mission in Secret Realm No. 7 is to find the heretics?" a female student asked.

Old Liu added, "Not just find them—you must kill them and restore the secret realm to its normal state."

Hearing the nature of this mission, everyone in the classroom frowned.

This kind of task was completely different from their previous ones, where they only had to slay monsters.

Old Liu continued, "Secret Realm No. 7 is generally a normal world with many humans. Once you enter the secret realm, you must quickly identify the heretic and eliminate them. This task is extremely difficult because heretics disguise themselves as native residents of the secret realm, hiding among the crowd, making them nearly impossible to identify."

Upon hearing this, the students' expressions changed.

Finding a single, distinct individual in a sea of people was indeed as difficult as finding a needle in a haystack.

Some students were already considering backing out.

At this moment, Old Liu added, "Of course, the secret realm won't force you into a dead end. If you stay in the secret realm for seven days without discovering any clues about the heretic, the secret realm will provide you with a hint, such as the heretic's appearance."

"Even so, identifying the heretic among so many people will still be challenging. Therefore, if you stay in the secret realm for 14 days, the secret realm will issue a second hint. However, if you fail to complete the mission within ten days after the second hint, the mission will be deemed a failure!"

Hearing this, the students exhaled slightly in relief.

It's somewhat better if there are hints.

Without hints, trying to find one person in the whole world would be far too difficult.

As for the consequences of failing the mission, although Old Liu didn't explicitly say, everyone understood.

Failure would almost certainly mean they wouldn't make it back.

Old Liu continued, "There have been cases where, after the first hint, someone quickly located the heretic and killed them. However, they still didn't receive any extra rewards, and even the basic rewards were minimal. So, to earn high or extra rewards, you must find and kill the heretic before any hints are given."

These words caused the students to frown again.

A male student couldn't help but ask, "Teacher, for such a mission… has anyone ever received extra rewards?"

Old Liu nodded. "Yes! There was one lucky person abroad. On the fourth day in the secret realm, by sheer luck, they found the heretic. To be precise, the heretic mistook them for a fellow transmigrator, approached voluntarily, and revealed their identity."

The students were utterly astonished.

Such a thing was possible?

What unbelievable luck!

Some students even started considering whether they should behave unusually in the secret realm to attract the heretic's attention.

Seeing through their thoughts, Old Liu immediately issued a warning:

"Don't even think about doing anything abnormal in the secret realm to lure out the heretic! People have tried this before, but not one of them succeeded! Heretics aren't fools. Acting this way will most likely alert them, causing them to escape even further."

"The lucky person I mentioned was a one-off case, the only one to ever earn extra rewards."

Hearing this, the students quickly abandoned their impractical ideas.

Then, a student raised another question:

"Teacher, how do we distinguish heretics from people like us? What if we accidentally hurt the wrong person?"

"You don't need to worry about that!" Old Liu replied.

"Secret Realm No. 7 is a team mission. Each team will be sent to a different world within the secret realm, so you won't encounter other teams. Therefore, the scenario you mentioned won't happen."

Hearing this, the students sighed in relief.

However, Chen Ye frowned slightly at this point.

To put it bluntly, the mission in Secret Realm No. 7 was to find a transmigrator and kill them.

If the secret realm's world was one he was familiar with, he would have a natural advantage, easily identifying the heretic.

This was because transmigrators, by nature, would never settle for being ordinary citizens. They were bound to stir up trouble.

Chen Ye's familiarity with storylines meant that any oddities would immediately lead him to the heretic.

His concern was that this time, the secret realm's world might be one he didn't know. That would put him on the same level as everyone else, starting without an advantage.

No wonder a certain online commentator had boldly claimed: "If I manage to dominate in Secret Realm No. 7, I'll light firecrackers in my pants."

This mission was indeed very challenging.

"Since everyone will be sent to a different secret realm world, I won't go into detail about what these worlds contain."

Old Liu continued, "Next, I'll share some tips on how to identify heretics. These tips come from top performers with excellent track records."

"First, a heretic is never an ordinary person. Even if they appear normal, it's only a disguise…"

"Second, heretics are often orphans with no parents or whose parents have passed away."

"Third, heretics usually start out in miserable circumstances but rise to power incredibly quickly!"

"Fourth, some heretics have a close childhood friend or an unrelated older or younger sister…"

"Fifth, if someone has been rejected in marriage by a woman, there's a high likelihood they are a heretic!"

"Sixth, anyone shouting phrases like 'Deep Blue' or 'Add Points' is unquestionably a heretic!"
