Eleven days ago, the soldiers who had locked people up at the containment room at the end of the corridor on the fifth underground floor of Jiang City's Anomaly Investigation Bureau were once again gathered at the door, fully armed. Senator Hayes walked at the forefront, raised his hand and tapped the electronic screen embedded in the iron door twice, then entered a line of password into the verification interface that popped up. The iron door opened automatically. Lin Jue, dressed in a neat black…-

By late May, Jiangcheng and its surrounding cities quickly restored order under the governance of high-ranking officials like Councilor Hayes. Simultaneously, various purges proceeded in an orderly fashion. After being hit by a tranquilizer dart, Lin Chen fell under the control of the Department of Weirdness Investigation. He remained silent for an entire day after waking up, only then fully processing what had happened in the later stages of the final instance and Si Qi's death. In the following…

For twenty-four hours after Si Qi's death, everyone who participated in the encirclement operation waited for the outcome in terrifying silence. Si Qi had said that after his death, the oddities he controlled would go out of control; the news brought by Chu Yining claimed that Qi Si would return after Si Qi died, like a monster hunter cutting open a monster's body only to release an even more terrifying one. For the past half month, Si Qi, as a reckless madman and an inherently inhuman evil god, had…

Unit 1101, Block 12, Riverside Estate. Si Qi leaned against the window of the second bedroom, listening as the footsteps outside the door drew nearer. A bomb within ten metres could reduce a target hiding behind the door to dust, yet the Investigators clearly had no intention of taking his life. Whether because of new orders or simple complacency toward a once-dangerous being now reduced to mortality, a voice blared through a loudspeaker: "Qi Si, you are surrounded. Cease all…

The premeditated explosion kept raging. Shrapnel and a wall of heat slammed into Si Qi; great tongues of fire licked across his body as the stench of scorched flesh mingled with the reek of blood. He raised a hand to his cheek and neck and found it dripping—scarlet blood flecked with gold poured over him like a waterfall. His crimson suit drank up the red, leaving only intricate veins of molten gold. Lin Jue had stocked enough explosives to wipe out both terrorist and hostage in one…

Xiang City, downtown. The first governor's statue towered above the square; from below, the up-thrust right hand gripping a banner seemed to brush the sky. It had been hollowed out during construction and fitted with a spiral staircase. At the top waited a cubicle of less than five square metres; two windows aligned with the statue's eyes, and from them one could survey all Xiang City and even glimpse the winding coastline at its edge. White Crow pushed the window open, letting the bitter…

In the depths of a safe house converted from an air-raid shelter in Kazan, White Bear County, Meng Wenfei sat at her desk, watching information scroll rapidly across her computer screen. The guild factions in the Eerie Game consisted only of Jiuzhou, Tingfeng, Sera, and the rest—at most, one could add the Balance Guild, which had a profound influence on reality, and the recently disruptive Unnamed Guild. Most small guilds either relied on large…

In just three days, the chaotic situation quickly stabilized. Reality once again confirmed the conclusion already drawn by history: although dictatorial actions are often criticized, they are the most effective way to achieve unified agreement among scattered humans in a short period. Jiang City lifted its lockdown on the third day. Although the Rose Monsters within the city had not been completely eliminated, they were successfully confined to specific areas due to the intervention of Lin Jue and a…

Land tainted by Eerie no longer knows day from night; grotesque horrors prowl the streets without rest, hunting any life not yet turned. The unarmed civilians were devoured first. Next came the federal troops who charged to the front lines yet had no experience with Eerie. Those at the apex of the food-chain fled early with their wealth, leaving the city's worker-ants—who create value but never taste it—to hold out alone. Soon even they were decimated. The riff-raff who once haunted the gray…

【One】 Qi Si felt that everything today seemed strange. The alarm clock by his bed had been replaced with “Gloomy Sunday” by who-knows-who. The opening line, “Sunday is gloomy,” had a distorted sound like an old cassette from the last century, a premonition of lurking ghosts. During breakfast, his father and mother sat neatly on the other side of the long table, their faces adorned with identical, perfectly appropriate smiles, simultaneously picking up dumplings with their chopsticks…
