Before long, Yuna wheeled a food cart out from behind the counter, bringing with her a pungent reek of fish. The smell wasn't quite nauseating, but it was far from pleasant, reminding Qi Si of a salted-fish workshop he'd visited years earlier. In that dark, cavernous room, the floor had been carpeted with fish corpses; he'd half suspected he was one of those rotting bodies—hardly a happy memory. The odor was arresting enough that every player instinctively held their breath…-

"We're here, it's just ahead." Yuna gestured to the players, then turned and entered the wooden house. Qi Si followed the other players and walked in behind Yuna. The inn, built of wood, looked small from the outside but was quite spacious inside, furnished with over a dozen tables of various sizes, arranged like a restaurant. The walls, seasoned by the sea breeze, persistently gave off a salty, fishy odor, and the wooden furnishings were dotted with tooth-mark-like…

The players retreated as if facing a formidable foe. After losing its target, the Merman statue lowered its head and remained motionless, its gaze falling upon the marble wings beside its base with sorrow and longing. Liu Yuhan stared at the statue for two seconds and said softly, "It wants to regain the wings on the ground, but its movements are confined to the area of the base, so it cannot reach them." Zhang Hongfeng asked, "Then should we help it put the wings on?" "Don't touch…

The tremors on the deck finally subsided, and even the sea wind gentled. The light grew brighter, yet the sky stayed a sickly yellow. Qi Si saw yellow heavens and motionless yellow clouds, like an oil painting. Thin cloud-threads sketched the outline of a colossal eye in the sky, evoking the captain's mention of ‘the Sea God's Eye', then vanished the instant Qi Si blinked. Qi Si blinked again; only after two seconds did he realise he had somehow gone from standing to…

The salty, fishy smell of seawater soaking into the wooden planks and drying in the wind rushed toward him. Even his shirt felt like it had been dusted with salt particles, provoking an itch that felt like a hallucination. The darkness slowly dissipated, and as his vision settled, Qi Si found himself standing at the bow of a ship, stepping on broken, damaged wooden planks, leaning over the wooden gunwale. Before him lay a boundless sea. Dark yellow waves rolled on and on. The surface of the…

Qi Si arrived at his rural hometown a little past noon. He got out of the taxi and headed straight for the old house he remembered. Along the way he passed a few scattered villagers at work—mostly unfamiliar faces who stole glances at this unexpected visitor. A couple who recognized him muttered, 'That's the one who jinxed his parents to death, then the whole family…' The village was in its twilight years: nothing but crumbling bricks like dandruff, withered grass, and a boundless…

Liu Pu, this person, was just as ordinary as his name. In his childhood, he experienced the transition from a sovereign state to the Earth Federation; his parents both died in the war, and his family savings evaporated overnight following currency reform. In his youth, he obtained a loan from the Foundation, allowing him to finish compulsory education, and he ended up with a debt that seemed astronomical to him at the time. As a young man, he went to work in a factory with a few close…

The full-length mirror, acting as the instance entrance, was placed to the left of the high-backed chair. After Qi Si stared at it for a few seconds, the reflection was replaced by writing: 【Please start your next instance within 7 days. Once the countdown ends, you will be forcibly teleported into an instance.】 Official players could choose when to enter an instance. If Qi Si wanted to, he could even clear one instance every day to…

Three days ago, in the Carnivore instance, by the banks of the golden river of blood, Qi Si asked what weights God could place upon the balance of their transaction. God told him silently: "I shall, within the scope permitted by the rules, tacitly allow you to exercise the authority of the Contract. You shall travel through infinite worlds, leading lambs astray with deception, standing shoulder to shoulder with divinity through sin and malice." A…

The intricate corridors of the temple wound like a maze, with countless intersections merging and diverging. People of varying heights ran through them, their expressions shifting between shock and curiosity upon unexpected encounters. "Who are you?" "Who are you?" "Who are you?" The figures questioned each other with different voices—some youthful, some mature—but their tones were identical. "I am Qi Si." "I am Qi Si." "I am Qi Si." They answered with the same…
