Chapter 349 Chapter 349 Each with Their Troubles
Irving thought of several possible methods to help Anna rid herself of the corruption caused by chaotic power. However, none of these methods seemed particularly reliable.
After contemplating for a while, Irving slowly turned to the knowledge fairy and asked, "Do you think I could use the power of the Taikoo Flame Pearl to eliminate the chaos corruption affecting Anna?"
Uncertain himself, Irving chose to seek the knowledge fairy's opinion directly.
The knowledge fairy did not respond immediately. Instead, she said coolly, "You haven't fulfilled your promise yet. You need to provide me with information related to the Dark Overlord first. Only after that will I consider continuing to assist you."

Upon hearing this, Irving smiled. "Alright! I can provide you with information regarding the Dark Overlord right now!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Irving walked with the knowledge fairy toward a corner of the warehouse.
"As far as I know, the Dark Overlord's arrival is inevitable. Moreover, it can interfere with the real world using its immense power even before it descends. I also know that the Dark Overlord can enter the world of the shelter game."
This revelation left the knowledge fairy visibly shocked.
Her form began to undergo significant changes, with the information that made up the knowledge fairy continuously splitting and reorganizing.
Irving chose not to elaborate further. Though he had more information regarding the Dark Overlord, he felt he could use that knowledge to negotiate with the knowledge fairy later.
He waited for the knowledge fairy to return to normal.
After about five minutes, the knowledge fairy's form finally stabilized.
In an excited tone, she said, "The knowledge you provided is incredibly helpful to me. To show my gratitude, I can now answer your previous question. The power of the Taikoo Flame Pearl cannot eliminate the chaos corruption affecting Anna."
Irving felt a slight sense of disappointment at her answer. "Then what should I do to succeed? If you can tell me how to rid Anna of the chaos corruption, I would consider searching for more information related to the Dark Overlord afterward."
Although the knowledge fairy was eager to obtain information concerning the Dark Overlord, she had to admit, "I certainly wish to acquire more information about the Dark Overlord. However, I truly do not know how to resolve the chaos corruption. When I faced the Chaos Entity, I could only barely fend off the chaotic power using the spells I possessed."
The fact that the knowledge fairy had no way to eliminate the chaos corruption left Irving feeling even more disheartened. He looked at the barely conscious Anna, and his expression grew grave.
Just then, the knowledge fairy suddenly spoke up. "Although I can't remove the chaos corruption from Anna, I can prevent her condition from worsening."
Irving turned his gaze to the knowledge fairy, waiting for her to elaborate.
"I can use the knowledge I possess to place Anna in a zone where time is completely frozen! This way, the chaos corruption affecting her will not worsen. You can also use this time to search for a solution to the chaos corruption."
The solution proposed by the knowledge fairy indeed provided a glimmer of hope for Irving. He nodded in agreement. "That seems to be the only option left. Please act immediately, and afterward, I will seek more information for you."
After saying this, Irving took Vicky and left the warehouse. Until he found a way to resolve the chaos corruption, he would not allow anyone else to enter the warehouse, as there was still a significant amount of residual chaotic power inside.
As Irving and Vicky exited the warehouse, the knowledge fairy closed the large door behind them.
Vicky felt a bit downcast at that moment. After hesitating for a while, she slowly asked Irving, "Finding a solution to the chaos corruption will be quite difficult, won't it?"
Irving didn't reply immediately; he simply nodded lightly.
"If you think I can help, I will do everything in my power to assist you," Vicky said, her voice lowered.
Irving looked at Vicky. "You don't need to worry! No matter what, I will find a way to resolve the chaos corruption! After all, the Chaos Entity has already been proven to be our enemy. If I can't even find a way to solve the chaos corruption, I certainly won't be able to figure out how to defeat the Chaos Entity."
Irving spoke this with a smile, trying to keep Vicky from becoming too worried. In reality, he felt quite uncertain about the situation. He feared that he might not find a solution to the chaos corruption at all.
Seeing the smile on Irving's face, Vicky finally relaxed a bit. "Of course, I believe in you! Let's hurry and help the others. The Night Blades' attack has caused us significant trouble this time."
With that, Vicky and Irving began to assist others in need.
Irving had no intention of revealing Anna's true condition to Aron. He knew that if Aron learned the truth, he would become extremely anxious, which could potentially disrupt Irving's plans.
Therefore, Irving only shared some irrelevant information with Aron, making him think that Anna simply needed time to recuperate in the warehouse.
Irving and his companions were facing significant troubles, while their enemies were also encountering their own difficulties.
Elder Astra, along with the Chaos Entity, entered the world of the shelter game after leaving the Angel Guild's headquarters.
At that moment, Elder Astra was still shaken. He turned to the Chaos Entity, a hint of dissatisfaction in his voice as he asked, "Now you can tell me your true intentions, right? Are you really willing to join me in opposing Shadow Celestial?"
Elder Astra did not trust the words of the Chaos Entity. He found its previous actions too strange and was not about to believe anything it said easily.
The Chaos Entity did not provide a clear answer. Instead, it used its chaotic power to generate a projection. This projection took the form of Shadow Celestial.
The moment Elder Astra saw the projection of Shadow Celestial, he was filled with terror. He thought that the Chaos Entity had summoned Shadow Celestial. If the Chaos Entity and Shadow Celestial were on the same side, it would mean that Elder Astra's true intentions had been discovered by Shadow Celestial.
"You don't need to be nervous! What's before us is just an illusory projection. I summoned this projection to make you understand one thing: I must compete with Shadow Celestial for the chaotic power," the Chaos Entity spoke in the voice of Shadow Celestial.
Elder Astra's expression began to calm. He spoke with a hint of annoyance, "Could you please not use Shadow Celestial's voice? Every time I hear it, I feel incredibly stifled."
"Then I'll speak to you in your own voice!" The Chaos Entity quickly shifted its voice to mimic Elder Astra's.
Elder Astra chose not to comment further; his main concern was the collaboration with the Chaos Entity. "Since you want to compete with Shadow Celestial for chaotic power, then we are indeed allies. Do you have a specific action plan? If my companions and I take action against Shadow Celestial, can you assure us that you will provide assistance?"
Elder Astra did not waste any words. He hoped that the Chaos Entity would unleash its full power in any potential battle. This way, Elder Astra and his companions would not have to bear an overwhelming amount of risk.
Upon hearing Elder Astra's words, the Chaos Entity let out a hoarse laugh. "Are you planning to have me sacrifice myself while you hide in the back and reap the benefits? Don't hold your breath! During the battle against Shadow Celestial, I will certainly assist you, but I will never take the initiative to strike."
The Chaos Entity's response was in line with Elder Astra's expectations, so he nodded in agreement. "As long as you can provide us with assistance during the battle, that's all that matters! Now, let's discuss our plan against Shadow Celestial. Currently, our strength is insufficient to defeat it."
The Chaos Entity did not contradict Elder Astra, as it also understood that its own power was far inferior to that of Shadow Celestial. If it could defeat Shadow Celestial, it wouldn't need to hide in the shadows.
"You're right, so we must join forces with others. Even if we don't ally with them, we must leverage their power to deal a significant blow to Shadow Celestial!" Elder Astra realized the Chaos Entity's intentions at this point.
"Are you suggesting that we can have Irving confront Shadow Celestial? But how do we accomplish that? Shadow Celestial likely won't provoke Irving easily," Elder Astra said with a frown.
The Chaos Entity replied with a mocking smile, "Weren't you acting on Shadow Celestial's orders when you attacked Irving and the Angel Guild headquarters? If we share this information with Irving, he will undoubtedly seek trouble with Shadow Celestial. Moreover, I have left traces of chaos corruption on Anna, and Irving is well aware of the strong connection between Shadow Celestial and chaotic power. This increases the likelihood that Irving will confront Shadow Celestial directly. We only need to provide a slight push from behind."
The Chaos Entity's words finally gave Elder Astra a sense of confidence. "Even though we are facing many troubles right now, at least we finally have a plan that has a reasonable chance of success. However, I can't continue discussing this with you here; I must return to the Night Blades headquarters as quickly as possible. Shadow Celestial will soon be able to pinpoint my location."
After saying this, Elder Astra hurriedly departed.
