Chapter 179: Chapter179-Hidden Crisis

John initially thought Isabella was going to mention something about the resource points or some internal affairs within the fortress, but what she revealed caught him completely off guard.

He visibly paused, "Are you sure?"

Isabella nodded gravely.

She had been somewhat uncertain at first, but recently, while fighting the minor creatures, two people had died accidentally.

The time it took for them to disappear as white light had stretched to five minutes.

She didn't know what exactly was happening outside the secret realm, but this delay was undeniably real.

"That's strange…"

John lowered his head, deep in thought.

Such an occurrence should absolutely not happen.

After all, within these secret realms, true death was not supposed to occur.

Upon death, one was merely transported out, continuing as an observer, merely stripped of the right to compete.

But why then was the respawn time slowing down?
