The next day, Miracle City opened its gates. Today, the total number of Adventurers flooding into the city officially exceeded one thousand. Coupled with Jack's integration of several thousand foreign citizens, Miracle City was not only lively but also beginning to take shape.
The Adventurers marveled, noting that many Underground Cities that had been operating stably for ten years might not even reach a thousand daily active Adventurers, while Miracle City achieved this in about ten days.
The Adventurers gathered together, discussing the topics that interested them most.
"Did you check the forums yesterday?"
"Lord Jack has already taken Gloomy City!"
"This breaks the record for the fastest promotion to a Tier 2 Lord in history!"
"Too strong."
"But that's not what I'm concerned about. I just want to know when Miracle City's second Secret Realm will be released."
"I don't think it will be that fast. Although Miracle City is developing quickly, how easy is it to design a completely new Secret Realm? Especially a high-quality one."
"Yeah!"
"The quality of Miracle City's 'Doomsday Frenzy' is evident. The second Secret Realm, even if not on the same level as the Raging Tide, at least shouldn't be too bad."
"With a jewel in front."
"The Lord's pressure is probably not small!"
"I have confidence in Lord Jack. He is not an ordinary Lord!"
While the Adventurers were discussing, the gates of Miracle City officially opened. The Adventurers from Black Stone Town immediately poured in like a mighty stream.
Boss Jack, quite uncharacteristically, appeared early in the morning in front of the Secret Realm Lobby.
"Lord!"
"Whatever you want to ask, this Lord knows it all."
Jack directly interrupted the Adventurers' barrage of questions.
"First, I want to thank all the Adventurers for their support and contributions to Miracle City in recent days. My territory has successfully captured Gloomy City as expected, and this achievement includes the efforts of everyone present."
Although this matter had already spread, upon receiving confirmation from Jack, everyone still showed genuine smiles of joy.
Jack continued, "Miracle City has successfully acquired the second territory core and now possesses the capability to operate a second Secret Realm..."
Upon hearing this, some Adventurers couldn't hold back.
He quickly asked, "Lord, when will the second Secret Realm be released? We can't wait!"
"Yeah!"
"Hopefully not too long!"
"Can it be ready within ten days?"
"Ten days? That might be a bit difficult for the Lord. I think around fifteen days is more reasonable. After all, quality comes first, and good food is worth waiting for!"
"Fifteen days?"
"I can't wait even a day!"
The Adventurers knew that creating a high-quality Secret Realm was extremely difficult. Some Lords would go into seclusion for two or three months and still not necessarily be able to create a satisfactory Secret Realm.
The quality of Miracle City's Secret Realm was so high that ten days felt simply too demanding.
However, just then, Jack interrupted the Adventurers' discussion: "This Lord is here today precisely to announce important news regarding the second Secret Realm!"
Hearing this, everyone immediately fell silent. For a moment, there was complete silence.
Jack solemnly announced, "Miracle City's second Secret Realm—Foreign Lands Chronicle—is officially open for operation from today. Welcome all Adventurers to challenge it!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the scene was silent for a few seconds. Then came a sound like a mountain roaring and a sea surging. The Adventurers suspected their ears were playing tricks on them.
They had only captured Gloomy City yesterday, and today the Secret Realm was ready. What kind of divine speed was this? Could it be that the Lord had already planned the second Secret Realm when he first established the Underground City? Otherwise, it would be impossible to achieve this efficiency!
Of course, the Adventurers didn't know that Jack had existing works he could simply copy. Although the resetting process also required effort and refinement, there was no difficulty in terms of creation. Furthermore, only a prologue was produced, so overall, it was even easier than the Tidal Secret Realm levels.
Cat Meow Meow asked, "What kind of Secret Realm is the second Secret Realm?"
Other Adventurers also became curious and even worried. Curiosity needs no explanation, while worry stemmed from concern about quality. Regardless, Miracle City's Secret Realm production speed was too fast.
It was impossible to create a Secret Realm with innovation, content, and excellent mechanics in such a short time. Could the new Secret Realm simply be a maze with a fresh coat of paint? If that were the case, although having "Doomsday Frenzy" as a baseline meant Miracle City wouldn't be bad, it would still cause some disappointment, or even sadness.
Jack then explained, "Miracle City's 'Foreign Lands Chronicle' is a new world with a completely different design concept and elements compared to 'Doomsday Frenzy.' After Adventurers enter the Foreign Lands Chronicle world, they will have the opportunity to play characters of different identities and live out their legendary lives!"
"During this process, you will gradually understand a completely unfamiliar, magical foreign world, like collecting puzzle pieces. You will appear at different times, different locations, and in different countries within this world. You will participate in or witness epic stories one after another!"
"You will gain a deep understanding of the writing, language, customs, culture, and history of different countries, and make friends with heroes or villains of different periods, backgrounds, and identities! This is the Foreign Lands Chronicle!"
After hearing the basic introduction, the Adventurers felt impressed without fully understanding. According to the Lord, the Foreign Lands Chronicle would create at least ten epic stories, shaping this unfamiliar world in a comprehensive manner.
Was this really possible? That would require such powerful production capabilities. And each country had to feel like a foreign land? How was this possible? It seemed too difficult!
Humans can never imagine things beyond their cognition, so it was also challenging for the Adventurers to envision foreign customs they had never seen.
Forgotten River Wanderer asked, "Does the Lord plan to update the Secret Realm long-term like the Raging Tide until ten different countries and stories are created?"
Ten is just a general number. Jack didn't have obsessive-compulsive disorder. He wouldn't require himself to produce exactly ten countries; it was possible to create fifteen or twenty, and of course, having one or two less was also normal, so there was no need for a special explanation.
"The Foreign Lands Chronicle Secret Realm will naturally be updated long-term! I will concentrate resources and energy in the near future to complete the creation of the first country as quickly as possible."
Jack continued, "To allow Adventurers to quickly experience the charm of the Foreign Lands Chronicle Secret Realm, this Lord has recently worked overtime to complete the prologue of the first country. All Adventurers are welcome to experience it."
"Awesome!"
"The Lord is too conscientious!"
The Adventurers were moved and admired him.
White Crane Hermit then asked, "What are the characteristics of the first foreign country?"
Jack replied, "This country is called Ashina Country. I have nothing else to reveal; please explore it yourselves."
Speaking of which, the time was right. Jack decided to leave, allowing the Adventurers to experience it for themselves.
The Adventurers were not hesitant and immediately flooded into the hall in a massive crowd. Although the number of Adventurers exceeded a thousand, the Secret Realm Lobby crystals also increased to four hundred. On average, two or three people could share a crystal, so even if they had to queue, it wouldn't take much time.
Black Stone Hammer King was excited: "I want to challenge the new Secret Realm. Do you guys want to try?"
Violent Little Chicken added, "Nonsense! I want to see if the Lord can create a Miracle once again!"
Pig King chimed in, "Gotta play it!"
Although the vast majority of Adventurers expressed their desire to try it, some fervent fans of the Raging Tide Secret Realm indicated they would wait and see.
Cat Meow Meow asked, "Sister Mingyue, should we go to the Foreign Lands Chronicle and take a look?"
"I'll pass for now!" Moonlight Shines on Snow said, "I just had a breakthrough in story mode yesterday, and I'm going to explore the End of the World Tide story thoroughly."
Several Adventurers made similar choices.
"I'm more interested in the Raging Tide too. I just hope to get into the story early."
"Let's wait and see first."
"Good Secret Realms are rare."
"I think the Raging Tide Secret Realm is already the top-tier Secret Realm. No matter how good this Foreign Lands Chronicle is, it can't compare to the Raging Tide."
Although the vast majority of Adventurers were eager to try something new, a small number chose to wait and see or were so captivated by the End of the World Tide that they found it difficult to pull themselves away, even with a new Secret Realm appearing.
Thus, the new day of adventure officially began.
