Why is only Hell safe?

    Shen Ye fell into deep thought.

    He hadn’t seen any surveillance cameras when he was in the nightmare world.

    Big Skeleton also thought of the same question and asked in confusion:

    “It’s strange, I don’t understand why it’s only safe in Hell!”

    “I don’t understand either,” Shen Ye said.

    “Then what do we do now?” Big Skeleton asked.

    “Do you want to avenge your mother?” Shen Ye asked.

    “Yes! Not only do I want revenge, but I also want to reclaim everything I’ve lost!” Big Skeleton said.

    “Good, then use this nightmare crystal. Once you master the skill, see if you can take me with you,” Shen Ye said.

    Big Skeleton emerged from the ring, stretched out a skeletal claw to grasp the crystal, and crushed it.

    A golden mist rose, enveloping it.

    The mist continuously flowed into its body.

    Shen Ye waited boredly on the side when suddenly, the magic parchment in his arms stirred.

    Unfolding the parchment, he saw Prince Norton’s handwriting:

    “My king has ordered me to return to the imperial capital immediately.”

    “After I leave, your investigation must continue. You must uncover the secret of the Undead Empire!”

    “It will be too late if you delay!”

    “—I’ve placed the control key to the teleportation array in the potted plant in my room.”

    “The incantation is ‘Norton’s Trust, Decides Everything’.”

    “No one will enter my room today, and I have instructed all the guards that you may come at will and no one shall obstruct you.”

    Shen Ye shook his head after reading it.

    That teleportation array was already known to the undead and had become a trap.

    He wouldn’t go to his death.

    “Ugh…”

    Big Skeleton let out a groan.

    “How is it? Have you mastered it?” Shen Ye asked.

    “One good news, one bad news,” Big Skeleton said.

    “Good news?”

    “I know how to go to Hell.”

    “Bad news?”

    “We still have to go back to Evernight City. Some valuable spellcasting materials are only available in Evernight City.”

    Shen Ye frowned.

    Too much trouble!

    Things in this nightmare world were always so complicated and wasted his time!

    “Oh, by the way, since we have money now, we can go to Evernight City to buy a few specific nightmare crystals.”

    Big Skeleton seemed to remember something and continued:

    “I have the true inheritances of the Undead race, which can upgrade your ‘Gloom Whisper’ by one level.”

    “Really?” Shen Ye didn’t believe it.

    “Of course it’s true—you’ve been so kind to me, always helping me, do you think I’m disloyal? I, Feilun, will definitely help you upgrade this skill!” Big Skeleton patted its chest.

    Shen Ye’s brows relaxed.

    Great!

    Things in this nightmare world were always so moving and full of brotherhood and romantic adventures!

    “Shall we go?” Big Skeleton asked.

    “Let’s go back first, eat, rest, and shower, then come back at midnight,” Shen Ye said.

    “Alright.”

    Big Skeleton carefully put away the magical skin.

    “Is this still useful?” Shen Ye asked.

    “For saving lives—it can only be used once,” Big Skeleton said mysteriously.

    The door opened.

    Shen Ye stepped back into the courtyard.

    It was already past eight in the evening.

    There was a takeout meal on the table.

    Today’s meal was sweet and sour fish, dry-fried intestines, stir-fried spinach, and tomato beef brisket pot.

    It smelled good.

    A note was pinned to the takeout:

    “Tonight at 8:30, the ‘anomaly’ will be temporarily put away, and you can contact your family.”

    It was almost time.

    As soon as the surrounding scene ended, his phone and cards immediately received many messages.

    Shen Ye opened the takeout, ate, and read the messages.

    Xiao Mengyu messaged him asking what he planned to wear tomorrow.

    What the hell!

    Shen Ye thought for a while before understanding.

    —Tomorrow was the joint welcome party for the three schools!

    It was just a party, why care about what to wear?

    Boys didn’t care about such things, alright.

    For example, Zhang Xiaoyi and Guo Yunye had sent messages inviting him to play cards tonight.

    No time!

    Shen Ye somewhat longed for such a high school boy’s life, but he really had no time tonight, so he had to refuse.

    His parents sent photos, but it was a notice posted at the entrance of the high school campus that read: “Warmly congratulate Shen Ye from Class 3 (5) of our school for being admitted to the world-renowned school: Divine Breathing Soil High School.”

    There were also two inflatable lions at the entrance.

    …This felt a bit like the festive atmosphere of a wedding in his previous life’s countryside.

    His mom sent another message: “Son, your grandpa personally called and asked us to go back for dinner. Your dad is still hesitating whether to go back.”

    His dad also privately sent a message: “Son, your grandpa personally called and asked us to go back for dinner. Your mom is still hesitating whether to go back.”

    You two are enough.

    It’s clearly your own hesitation, what’s the point of blaming others?

    The rest were countless endorsement and interview messages.

    Interestingly, the world’s largest dating website had reserved exclusive coverage for his 18th birthday coming of age ceremony.

    In that case, wouldn’t it be incredibly easy to make money if he wanted to?

    Shen Ye hesitated, then shook his head slightly.

    Time.

    His most precious asset now was time.

    Money could wait.

    Focusing on improving his strength was the right thing to do!

    Ten minutes passed quickly.

    The “anomaly” unfolded again.

    This time, Shen Ye didn’t do anything else.

    He soaked in the hot springs for a while, set an alarm, and took a short nap.

    Suddenly, there was a sound in the courtyard.

    “Who?”

    Shen Ye asked.

    “You,” a familiar voice replied.

    Shen Ye was stunned.

    It was his own voice!

    He suddenly stood up and looked, only to see another version of himself slowly walking through the courtyard.

    “Who are you!”

    Shen Ye shouted.

    The other self stopped and said, “Hello, master. I am an Individual Combat Biochemechanical Clone from the Human Martial Arts Group. I have completed incubation and are ready for use.”

    Shen Ye was startled.

    Ah—

    It seemed there was such a thing.

    He had thrown it somewhere and forgotten about it.

    But besides looking like him, this technological product didn’t have the “Night Roam” profession of the Hun Tian Gate, nor did it have the divine eye or the spiritual form. What could it do?

    “What can you do?”

    Shen Ye asked.

    “Good question,” the Individual Combat Biochemechanical Clone explained, “As everyone knows, the Dharma Realm is a special energy world isolated from the real world, so communication in the Dharma Realm becomes a big problem.”

    “And I have a milestone technology that has not yet been made public, but it can already solve this problem.”

    “So what exactly can you do?” Shen Ye asked.

    “Beep! Tune in to fm, welcome to today’s basketball commentary,” the Individual Combat Biochemechanical Clone said.

    “…A radio?” Shen Ye asked.

    “Precisely, I can receive news from the real world,” the Individual Combat Biochemechanical Clone explained.

    “Are there any other functions?” Shen Ye asked.

    “Making calls.”

    “What else?”

    “Downloading movies.”

    “…That’s good, but I’m very busy recently, no time for movies.”

    “I can transform.”

    The Individual Combat Biochemechanical Clone snapped its fingers, and a martial arts uniform immediately appeared on its body. It snapped its fingers again, and it changed into a black tailcoat.

    Shen Ye was a little confused.

    What could this thing be used for? To go to classes for him?

    “I can also download various tactical attack packages, remotely deploy weapons, and conduct a personal small-scale war,” the Individual Combat Biochemechanical Clone said.

    “Let me see,” Shen Ye said.

    “Calling the heavy firepower depot of the Human Martial Arts Group, call successful, activating the human cannon, initiating remote bombardment—”

    “Stop!” Shen Ye was startled.

    “Cease bombardment,” the Individual Combat Biochemechanical Clone said.

    Seemingly feeling that it had startled its master, the Individual Combat Biochemechanical Clone explained again: “My intelligence level has reached that of a normal human. I can attend various occasions for you, and even fight for you.”

    “Sounds good. Alright, you rest first, I’ll put you in action when needed.”

    “Yes, master.”

    Shen Ye waved his hand, opened the ring space, and put the Individual Combat Biochemechanical Clone inside.

    Alright.

    This thing was like a clone.

    In the future, when he went to the nightmare world, he could use this thing as a substitute to do things for him in the main world.

    Shen Ye got up, dried himself, yawned, and walked towards the bedroom.

    He was too tired today.

    He would sleep for a while, and at midnight, he would go to the nightmare world, buy all the spellcasting materials, and head to Hell!
