GRMFBS CH155

While resting, Gu Jiancheng had nothing to do and started cleaning his message box backstage.

He didn’t have the habit of cleaning messages; his message box was always in an overloaded state. After opening it, he casually clicked into the first post that @-mentioned him.

Heh, it’s just clearing some anomalies.

Previously, he didn’t have the energy to clear so many at once. Continuous use of the Shadow Sea placed too much mental burden on him. But now that the aftereffects were gone, what did clearing anomalies count for?

Gu Jiancheng disdained stealing others’ credit. Approaching Science’s messages were accurate and fast, and he even arranged optimal routes for him. Cooperating was very worry-free.

However, he felt Approaching Science didn’t need to take more tasks either. Information types all fear pollution. The tasks he gave were already plentiful enough, not to mention there were also the Abnormal Affairs Management Bureau and the Wan Yao Alliance.

Thinking of them, Gu Jiancheng couldn’t help but click his tongue.

The Abnormal Affairs Management Bureau keeps so many information types but still wants to snatch outsiders’. Really useless.

Zhan Yan also saw Deep Shadow’s reply in the forum. This boss quite loved browsing the forum when resting.

Ah, it’s rare to hear this wildly domineering cool boss praise someone. Zhan Yan was a bit proud.

Because I Just Saved the World! appeared in the forum, the thread quickly became lively.

26L:
Boss! Leave us a way to survive. Yesterday I went from Nandidao to Yuanping Port, then from Yuanping Port to Shijiang. Didn’t catch a single task, spent several hundred on gas.

27L:
Good lord, have mercy. How many places did you consecutively hit?

28L:
Boss, at least tell us your next target so I can avoid it, okay?

29L I Just Saved the World!:
I’m heading east.

When Gu Jiancheng previously left marks, he had no fixed standard, starting with places with high suspicion and close locations first.

Now he was going to investigate the clues Zhuo Xun gave him, clearing anomalies along the way.

30L:
Thanks, boss! I’ll immediately take tasks in the west!

31L:
Hehe, you guys still bootlick this tyrant who doesn’t allow others to go where he does tasks. Are you sick?

Seeing this weirdo made Zhan Yan angry. He rolled up his sleeves, preparing to show some fighting spirit, then new floors refreshed below.

32L:
Laughed. Aren’t tasks for whoever has the ability to do them? If you have the ability, go do them.

33L I Just Saved the World!:
Not forbidding. You can come.

34L:
Hahahaha, even if he goes, he can’t catch any.

Anomalies aren’t good things. Isn’t it good that a boss can clear them? If your own ability isn’t enough, go take simple tasks. How is it that people who publish tasks have to tolerate anomalies existing, waiting for you to get points?

35L:
One task in Shijiang was published by me. Because of low points and few clues, this task never had anyone take it. Although the wandering anomaly I have won’t cause life-threatening danger, it has troubled me for a long time.

Anyway, I am very grateful to the boss for completing the task. Not minding that the points I can offer are few.

36L:
Hahaha, go ahead then. Nobody is stopping you from going. Who do you blame for not completing the task yourself?

Zhan Yan calmed down.

Looking at Deep Shadow’s calm reply, the style was different from before. He actually didn’t directly retort. Always feels like Deep Shadow is in a very good mood today?

39L:
Hey hey hey, none of you are curious who the boss’s collaborator is? Searching information on an average of twenty-plus anomalies in one and a half hours is also super terrifying, okay?

40L:
No use asking. Anyway, it’s an information-type boss I can’t afford [dog head emoji]

41L:
Upstairs, that depends on what type of task it is.

That 30-point task in the boss’s task completion record was published by me.

My superpower isn’t very useful; I can’t save many points, can only offer this much. The task hung for several months with no one solving it. The boss did it for me.

Sincerely thank I Just Saved the World! boss and the other information-type boss here. Very, very grateful!

46L:
With the ability to search an anomaly in an average of 4-5 minutes, not many information-type bosses in the forum have this capability, right? Without digging, you can already know the range.

48L:
@I Just Saved the World! Please introduce, urgently need a powerful information-type collaboration.

51L Chewing Big Melons:
Do you guys think this information type’s strength is terrifying only in search speed?

Don’t forget information types face information pollution when checking anomaly messages.

With I Just Saved the World!’s speed of clearing anomalies, which information type can keep up with him?

52L:
@Chewing Big Melons! Boss appears! Boss, who do you think the information type is?

53L Chewing Big Melons:
Eating melon forgot to switch to alt account…

Forget it. Don’t ask; I don’t know either. Anyway, I don’t have this ability.

54L:
How many bosses are lurking and eating melon in this thread?

55L:
Are there any other bosses to help us analyze? Alt accounts are fine too.

57L:
I suspect more than one collaborator.

58L:
But didn’t I Just Saved the World! say “he is very amazing”? This should confirm just one collaborator, right?

60L:
How strong must the pollution resistance be! Or is there also a healing-type boss who can clear pollution?

68L:
@I Just Saved the World! Boss, answer! Please introduce!

69L:
Stop asking. Go look at the task area; they’ve already started continuing to clear anomalies.

Quite a few people were lurking in this thread eating melon. After Zhan Yan sent new anomaly information to Deep Shadow, he was frantically @-mentioned in the “Did You Eat Melon Today?” group.

Chewing Big Melons: “@Approaching Science, Keke, is the collaborator mentioned by I Just Saved the World! in this thread you?”

“[Link]”

Waltz: “Should be, right? With I Just Saved the World!’s stinky temper, only Keke can cooperate with him.”

“We’re all people who’ve been rejected.”

Too Lazy to Choose Username: “We’re all people who’ve been rejected.”

Happy Guessing Game: “We’re all people who’ve been… Wait, what do you mean rejected? Clearly I Just Saved the World!, that psycho, actively found us to taunt, okay?”

Pure White Puzzle: “Boohoo, can’t compare to others in information search, can’t even compare in pollution resistance ability.”

“Lemon! Lemon! @Approaching Science We’re breaking up for a second! Unless you hand over your method of resisting pollution!”

Love Pineapple Buns: “@Approaching Science I’m different. I choose to hug thighs.”

“Boss, please tell how you solved the information pollution problem?”

Pure White Puzzle: “…Bobo you! Breaking up!”

“@Approaching Science Keke, I can also hug thighs!”

The more powerful the information type, the more severe the information pollution faced. There wasn’t one who didn’t covet methods to resolve pollution.

Tu Yue, wearing the Mysteries Book persona, lurked in the group. He thought even if you ask about Approaching Science’s method, you can only continue being lemons. The Nie siblings, Nie Ling and Nie Yu in the Bureau, had been envious for a long time, daily being inadvertently Versailles’d by Approaching Science.

Approaching Science: “Um… I’m not clear either. I’ve always been like this.”

Chewing Big Melons: “What does ‘always like this’ mean? Is it what I think?”

“Keke, have you never felt pollution?”

Approaching Science: “Not really. I don’t know if it counts as pollution either.”

“Sometimes if I use the ability too much, I can’t use it.”

Pure White Puzzle: “Besides that? No other feelings?”

Approaching Science: “Nope.”

Pure White Puzzle: “Ahhh I’m jealous!”

“When I use my ability too much, I also can’t use it. But that’s because my head hurts too much to use it.”

Waltz: “Such is the gap between this boss and us mortals…”

Too Lazy to Choose Username: “Sadly angry enough to hit the wall!”

“Really no unique method to solve pollution?”

“I’m willing to pay big money to trade.”

If this chat continued, it would turn bad. Approaching Science really had no unique secret technique, but others might not believe it. Tu Yue spoke up to stop it.

Mysteries Book: “I probably know the reason.”

Happy Guessing Game: “O! You know such a treasure and didn’t say earlier!”

Mysteries Book: “Not that I didn’t say; it’s hard to achieve even if I say.”

“That Approaching Science can defy pollution is very likely related to merit.”

They all knew the word merit, but for this group who stepped into the extraordinary by awakening superpowers, this word was relatively unfamiliar. Those walking the cultivation system were more familiar.

Mysteries Book: “You guys don’t research cultivation much, so aren’t familiar with this.”

“Merit is a gift from the world.”

“After twenty-six years ago, everyone should be clear that the world is alive and has its own will. Cultivators call it ‘Heavenly Dao.'”

“It knows everything happening on it, and it is also willing to give back to those worthy of feedback.”

Pure White Puzzle: “Can merit solve information pollution?”

Mysteries Book: “Yes.”

This research was proposed by Ning Xi. The Abnormal Affairs Management Bureau had been researching for many years and could confirm this result, just never had a suitable opportunity to make it public.

Mysteries Book: “Merit can solve information pollution.”

“Clearing anomalies can obtain merit.”

“But our world was severely wounded twenty-six years ago. The merit it can give back to us cannot offset the pollution we face when searching for anomalies.”

This was why the Abnormal Affairs Management Bureau didn’t make it public.

If the pollution faced in the process of clearing anomalies was 10, the pollution that the merit given back by the world could offset was only 1. Twenty-six years passed; the current situation would be better than then, but from the pollution perspective, effort and reward were still unequal.

Most people couldn’t feel that feedback. Even if this research result were made public, they would only suspect the Abnormal Affairs Management Bureau wanted to trick them into clearing anomalies.

Just look at the results of that thread just now.

The person who offered 30 points replied with the original intention of thanking, but after this reply appeared, some anomaly tasks in areas east of Shijiang had their points lowered or simply canceled.

These people thought: If we can use the two people’s labor at a low price or for free to clear pollution, why continue to spend high prices?

Tu Yue looked at the task area. I Just Saved the World! and Approaching Science didn’t care at all, still continuing to steadily clear.

But the world wouldn’t shortchange people.

Unable to clear anomalies but willing to offer points was also contributing. As long as one was willing to contribute, there would be merit.

Those who didn’t care about point gains and losses, heaven and earth wouldn’t let them suffer.

The wisdom of the world’s will would only be more than living beings, not less.

The use of merit wasn’t only clearing pollution. It would give the best arrangements in places people didn’t know.

These people using superpowers didn’t feel it deeply. Those cultivators understood this aspect better than them.

Tu Yue, as the librarian of the Abnormal Affairs Management Bureau, had seen much and gradually comprehended it.

The Tianshi nearly died twenty-six years ago. Since then, she endured between life and death, often needing seals to stabilize her condition, even several times requiring continuous months trapped in specially made sealing rooms to survive.

Twenty years ago, the Tianshi wanted to marry her lover. The Bureau was full of opposition then, but now?

Her family became her most solid anchor. After fully unsealing at Infinite Research Institute last time, she only needed to wear a suppressor for a few days.

Ning Xi and the Tianshi’s teammates always worried about her condition, unwilling to let her act. Tu Yue, as an outsider, saw more clearly.

For a cultivator who reached the Tianshi’s level, her feeling of her own condition was deepest. She felt it was fine and wanted to act because her state was indeed stabilizing day by day over twenty-six years.

Just one thing still made people a bit uneasy: The Tianshi’s lover and children were ordinary people with limited lifespans. If there were a day of separation in the future, who knew what would happen.

However, Tu Yue believed heaven and earth must have already made arrangements.

Just like Deep Shadow.

Perhaps Deep Shadow waited like this for his healing.
