After going offline, Zhan Yan rubbed his face.

He knew many people, and many people had good relationships with him. But when he just realized Hong Jing might have originally known him, only one person suddenly jumped out from his mind.

Who would notice malicious intent toward him at the first moment and tirelessly clear it again and again?

Zhan Yan opened the gossip system, took several deep breaths, then simultaneously opened the gossip feed under both “Zhan Suiru” and “Hong Jing,” attempting to drag them together.

The two stars merged, rising to his information starry sky, shining brilliantly at the zenith, sprinkling down a gentle radiance.

Zhan Yan’s eyes went blank: Ah… not very surprised.

Sister is a network-type boss. No wonder she’s so good at gaming.

No wonder he’d felt Hong Jing was important before.

Dad, Mom, and Brother all have extraordinary boss disguises, so it’s normal for Sister to have an extraordinary boss disguise too, right…

Normal my ass! Why doesn’t their family have even one ordinary person? This situation is obviously abnormal, right? What kind of probability would produce this situation? If he went out to buy lottery tickets now, could he win first prize? Even first prize probability is higher than this!

Abnormal! This situation is absolutely abnormal!

Moreover, with a bunch of bosses together, why did he get mixed in?

Zhan Yan felt like that husky mixed into a wolf pack.

Yes, he had a golden finger. The gossip system was very powerful. But besides that, he had nothing special.

Dad and Mom were super bosses who fought the Infinite twenty-six years ago. Before reincarnation, Brother was Linyuan Ghost King who also thoroughly screwed over the Infinite. Sister came from the apocalyptic world and had probably also fought the Infinite. Perhaps because of the recent approach of the apocalyptic world, her abilities were recovering from influence, which was why she now appeared as Hong Jing.

What about himself?

Zhan Yan tried hard to recall—his life from childhood had indeed been very ordinary. Only after obtaining the gossip system did he don a “Approaching Science” disguise and check some abnormal news. Besides that, he really, truly had no extraordinary life.

He couldn’t possibly have a second personality, could he?

Zhan Yan felt completely bewildered.

Bosses were bosses not just because of their powerful abilities. They also had weighty experiences, rich expertise, and resilient character. As Chongming Demon King had told the little parrot demon—brilliant souls.

But Zhan Yan had no memory of experiencing any major events, much less any expertise. He didn’t want to go through hardships to test his character either. He just wanted everyone to live happily together in harmony.

He felt he was the weakest one in the whole family.

But now, as the weakest, he knew everyone’s disguises. So the responsibility for resolving the storm that might be triggered by everyone’s exposed disguises fell entirely on his shoulders.

This burden was a bit heavy… Heavens, help!

Zhan Yan had never prayed so devoutly to the heavens before.

The heavens made his phone ring.

Zhan Yan looked—it was a message from Sister.

Zhan Suiru: “Yanyan, do you still play games now?”

Zhan Suiru hadn’t intended to use her boss account. She purely just wanted to find her brother to keep her company. Maybe it was a habit formed in childhood. Yanyan had been especially perceptive since young. Sensing she was unhappy, he’d pull her out to play together.

She’d almost been unable to hold back just now. She wanted to let herself break through the mental concept restriction, let her vast mental power wash into every crack of the ability core, clean every bit of contamination, free Yang Ran’s soul that was trapped and locked inside, so he wouldn’t have to remain imprisoned in a dark room enduring contamination’s erosion.

Who could patiently watch someone important to them suffer right in front of them?

She clearly had the ability to save him.

Zhan Suiru forcibly interrupted her thoughts. She needed to do something else to avoid getting emotional. She also hadn’t played as a gaming newbie to accompany her brother in a long time. But if Yanyan didn’t play games anymore, then forget it.

Zhan Yan thought his sister was still thinking about rainbow farts. Hong Jing’s mood hadn’t been good lately—seemed like she had some worries, but he couldn’t investigate them and Hong Jing wasn’t willing to say. When they were young, his sister would chat with him when unhappy. After growing up, she stopped saying anything and instead wore a gaming boss disguise to tease him.

He sighed.

Zhan Yan: “Sis, I saw Qi Ye’s livestream.”

“Actually, you don’t need a boss account for me to blow rainbow farts at you.”

“My sister is the best sister in the world. I hope she’s happy every day and never has worries.”

“If she encounters worries, I’m always here waiting for her to confide in me.”

“Even if she can’t tell me, there will be others who can listen to Sister’s troubles and help solve them together.”

Family wasn’t for mood regulation after encountering troubles. Family members supported each other—they could face troubles together.

Since Sister’s disguise had encountered trouble, he could also think of solutions using his disguise. Approaching Science already had many information channels. Even if he couldn’t do it, he knew many capable people.

He could ask others for help. He’d also accumulated quite a few things he could use for exchange.

Zhan Suiru’s hand trembled.

Zhan Yan watched his sister’s chat box show “typing…” for a long time before finally sending a message.

Zhan Suiru: “Such a sweet talker. Are you dating someone?”

Zhan Yan: …

Sis!!!

Ha, you’re just relying on the fact that your brother won’t turn against you.

Spoiled and arrogant!

Fortunately, although his sister didn’t engage and teased him instead, she did listen to what he said. The next day, wearing his little disguise, Zhan Yan heard Hong Jing asking him about anything that could repair divine sense and clear contamination.

Was his sister injured? Contaminated?

Zhan Yan felt nervous. After flipping through the gossip feed, he found no related ones.

Then who was Sister asking about these things for?

Damn, his information depth ability wasn’t enough. He couldn’t dig into his sister’s thoughts, only search behavioral-level things.

If he couldn’t search, forget it for now. In any case, first help Sister investigate.

Zhan Yan had previously helped Deep Shadow search for this type of information, except back then he’d searched more for people and fewer items.

In any case, first organize what he already had and give Sister a copy, then continue searching for the rest.

Zhan Suiru inquired that day and received a document that same day. Detailed and complete—clearly carefully compiled with effort.

“Squirrel” was this capable? Ah, how embarrassing to take it for free. This kid is so enthusiastic…

Recalling before—seeing her practicing data construction, he’d proudly come over and even proactively offered to teach her. Earlier, seeing the barrier she’d set up outside the game world, he’d reached out to poke it.

This kid wasn’t ordinarily bold.

Easy to suffer losses.

Zhan Suiru left him an emergency contact method.

So bold—if he accidentally stumbled, she could arrive in time to fish him out.

But this did indeed improve her mood. In the apocalyptic reincarnation cycle, she’d been everyone’s guardian. She was used to relying on herself. Now having others help felt good too.

Zhan Yan was busy collecting materials for Sister. After being busy for just a few days, he suddenly received a private message from Deep Shadow.

These past days he’d been focused on Sister’s side and accidentally forgot about Deep Shadow’s situation, not flipping gossip feed for several days.

But Deep Shadow boss had always been reliable. There probably wasn’t anything wrong, right?

He opened the private message.

I Just Saved the World!: “Help me contact the Wan Yao Alliance and Abnormal Affairs Management Bureau.”

Zhan Yan was shocked seeing this message.

What could have happened to make Deep Shadow proactively want to contact these two groups?

He quickly opened Deep Shadow’s gossip feed.

Deep Shadow’s next message also came through.

I Just Saved the World!: “The monster doctor has split.”

Zhan Yan: ?

Deep Shadow boss’s explanations were always concise style, quite a test of the listener’s intelligence. Fortunately, Zhan Yan still had the gossip system. Combining the gossip feed with Deep Shadow’s account, he finally figured out what happened.

Deep Shadow had been tracking the monster doctor recently. After the boss’s aftereffects healed, his strength was extremely fierce. He didn’t give the monster doctor any chance to continue playing fishing games, forcefully killing his way to the monster doctor’s lair.

Then he discovered the monster doctor himself was that nest—he’d already become a Black Nest.

Deep Shadow wasn’t very surprised. Approaching Science had told him long ago that the monster doctor had already become an abnormality. Later, when Approaching Science investigated the monster doctor, it was always very difficult with almost no progress.

With Approaching Science’s abilities, investigating A-level abnormalities was effortless. The monster doctor was so hard to investigate—he must have become a monster with deeper connections to the Infinite, like a Black Nest.

The flesh Black Nest the monster doctor had transformed into wasn’t easy to fight. Unlike the wardrobe shell Black Nest in the abandoned house he’d fought before, the monster doctor had accumulated himself very fully—like a bulging meat sac covered with mucus, blood vessels, and many strange tumors. Each tumor was a nest gestating a type of abnormality.

Even though it had already produced many abnormalities to stop Deep Shadow, the meat sac was still disgustingly plump.

It was much more troublesome than those small Black Nests Deep Shadow had cooperated with Linyuan Ghost King to fight before. After Deep Shadow resolved everything on the monster doctor’s exterior, he discovered this guy’s foundation was rooted in another space—a Zhulong afterimage.

Without going in, there was no way to eliminate the monster doctor. But the monster doctor had entrenched himself in this Zhulong afterimage for a long time. Entering the Zhulong afterimage was almost equivalent to entering the Black Nest’s interior.

And trying to eliminate a Black Nest from the inside was almost impossible. A Black Nest wasn’t a living thing—it didn’t have an interior more fragile than its exterior.

The interior of a Black Nest would form an independent space. The space would form its unique rules—this was the Infinite’s specialty. Entering a Black Nest was equivalent to entering a death dungeon with no missions, no rest days, no objectives. The only way out was to tear open the Black Nest from inside and break out. But the rules of the Black Nest’s interior space were absolutely favorable to the Black Nest.

So he still hadn’t figured out how the monster doctor survived from inside the Black Nest, to the point where he could still disgust him now.

If he didn’t enter the Zhulong afterimage, then Deep Shadow could only try to resolve it from the outside. But Deep Shadow knew nothing about Zhulong. To resolve it, he could only seek help from the Wan Yao Alliance. Perhaps within the Wan Yao Alliance there would be those familiar with Zhulong and Zhulong afterimages who knew how to resolve this thing from the outside.

When Zhan Yan read to this point, he still thought Deep Shadow boss was asking for help. Immediately after, he saw the next gossip feed:

[Deep Shadow cold-laughed and alone stormed into the Zhulong afterimage occupied by the monster doctor.]

Deep Shadow boss was really incredibly reckless!
