Zhan Yan: “Is that…”

Gu Jiancheng turned Zhan Yan’s head back casually: “I want to go back to the dormitory.”

“Okay, after I finish feeding the geese.” Zhan Yan continued to turn his head, “Is that…”

Gu Jiancheng continued to hold Zhan Yan’s face and turn it back: “Look at the geese. How cute the geese are. Let’s finish feeding quickly and go back early.”

Zhan Yan still wanted to turn his head: “The goslings are cute, but the big geese are fierce when pinching people. I seemed to see…”

He couldn’t refresh the melon strips now, so he wasn’t sure if what he saw just now was Wanyan Ghost King turning into the wishing cat at their school again.

Gu Jiancheng put one arm around the back of his head and turned it back: “Yan Yan…”

Zhan Yan blinked. Gu Jiancheng’s long eyelashes were right in front of his eyes, and the black pupils under the eyelashes were like burning stars.

Zhan Yan was bewitched by his beauty for a moment, then firmly pushed Gu Jiancheng away: “This trick doesn’t work on me anymore. Did you recognize that it was the wishing cat?”

Is he still jealous that I make cat food for the wishing cat?

Gu Jiancheng’s expression suddenly became pitiful, his black eyes seemingly covered with a layer of mist.

What to do? Does Yan Yan not like his face anymore?

Is he losing favor as his beauty fades?

Zhan Yan tried to refuse firmly: “This trick…”

Gu Jiancheng lowered his eyes in disappointment.

Still works.

Forget it, forget it. Why care why Wanyan Ghost King came over. Let’s talk about it tomorrow when the gossip system recovers.

Zhan Yan went to carry the feed bucket.

The nearby big geese and goslings suddenly ran around quacking wildly.

Wanyan Cat came over.

After Wanyan Cat escaped from Chaofu Mountain, he was very happy for a while and even interacted with tourists in the Chaofu Mountain in the human world.

The tourists were surprised to see a cat in the mountain and teased him with their food.

Wanyan Cat sniffed their starch sausages, turned his head and sneezed, then left.

He also heard those tourists saying from afar behind him, “This is a real mountain cat.” “They eat purely natural wild food, they don’t care for our artificial inferior food.”

Wanyan Cat left them behind. After going down the mountain, he didn’t know where to go again.

He wanted to find Lin Yuan, but where was Lin Yuan?

Leaving Chaofu Mountain, where could he go?

Wanyan remembered that in his dream, he took the black iron fish pendant, left Chaofu Mountain, and went to find Bai Ze.

But now Bai Ze was gone, so he was going to find Lin Yuan to help him find Bai Ze together.

Wanyan Cat thought of his exclusive chef. Might as well go find him.

So Wanyan came to Bei Nong University.

Wanyan followed the scent of the exclusive chef all the way to the lake and found the other party feeding the big geese.

Wanyan was very dissatisfied with this.

He walked over menacingly, scaring the goslings into running around in panic.

The big goose was very dissatisfied with Wanyan Cat scaring the goslings, spread its big wings, stretched its neck towards Wanyan Cat: “Gaaa—”

Wanyan Cat flattened his ears: “Meowww—”

Zhan Yan hurried to break up the fight.

While helping, Gu Jiancheng gained a new understanding of Wanyan Ghost King.

Too amazing! First time seeing a Ghost King fighting with ordinary big geese!

Ask next time seeing Lin Yuan Ghost King, what other Ghost Kings in their Chaofu Mountain are like.

The big geese quacked loudly at Zhan Yan. Zhan Yan heard an earful of complaints and curses about the “long-tailed idiot who can’t swim.”

Although Wanyan Cat didn’t understand what the big goose was saying, seeing it quacking at Zhan Yan, he also meowed at Zhan Yan.

“How can you cook for these long-necked things?”

Zhan Yan: …

Facing such a chaotic scene for the first time in his life, he really didn’t know how to satisfy both sides.

Zhan Yan first coaxed away the simple big geese and asked Gu Jiancheng to throw all the feed near their nest.

The big goose led the goslings waddling away to eat.

After feeding, Gu Jiancheng pulled Zhan Yan: “This cat is too fierce, let’s go too.”

Anyway, stay away from that mental patient Wanyan Ghost King.

Wanyan Cat was even more unhappy, meowing at Gu Jiancheng.

What kind of guy dares to sow discord between him and his valued chef!

Gu Jiancheng narrowed his eyes, starting to ponder the possibility of secretly beating the cat using the Deep Shadow alter ego.

Zhan Yan: …

“I didn’t bring delicious food today either. Can I make it for you tomorrow?” Zhan Yan coaxed Wanyan Cat away again, then took Gu Jiancheng back to the dorm to coax his boyfriend.

Gu Jiancheng hugged his waist and wouldn’t let go: “We’ll be separated during the internship.”

Mentioned by him, Zhan Yan also started missing him in advance. Sigh, the vacation is only one month, but the internship is three months.

Seeing Zhan Yan also becoming worried, Gu Jiancheng started feeling guilty.

He felt it was all caused by his eagerness for quick success and abuse of Lin Yuan Ghost King’s Interdependence of Fortune and Misfortune.

Zhan Yan was still talking about the news he found out from seniors—the factory Gu Jiancheng was assigned to this time was not the most strictly managed kind. The strictest kind only allowed bringing one set of clothes on the body, various necessary certificates, and electronic products like phones and computers. In the breeding farm Gu Jiancheng was assigned to, except for prohibited items, other things could be brought in as long as they went through the disinfection process.

But liquids like shampoo and body wash were not allowed; the factory would provide them.

In this case, the sleep-aiding essential oil couldn’t be brought in.

Zhan Yan remembered Gu Jiancheng had a problem with poor sleep. Later, using the essential oil mixed by his sister, he never found him sleeping poorly again. But if the internship place didn’t allow bringing essential oil… Could the essential oil be made into something solid like fragrant beads?

Zhan Yan did as he said, sending a message to his sister to ask.

Zhan Suiru happened to be tired from work and planned to change her mind when she received her brother’s message.

Making it into fragrant beads wasn’t hard, but why did Yan Yan suddenly want to make essential oil into fragrant beads? This didn’t quite fit her brother’s past habits. Could it be a gift for a friend?

Zhan Suiru’s radar went off again. Sigh, she suspected her brother was in love as early as last summer vacation, but there was no evidence then. Later, various things came up and she got busy, leaving her no time to pay attention.

Yan Yan didn’t tell them, but he played well with Qi Ye. Wonder if he would leak some clues on Qi Ye’s side.

Zhan Suiru sent a message to ask Qi Ye, but Qi Ye didn’t reply, possibly busy.

Xiao Ran urged her to go home again.

Before he always wanted to hustle, but now seeing Zhan Suiru studying things he didn’t understand every day, plus being affected by the approaching apocalyptic world, her state became increasingly gloomy, so he wanted her to rest again.

Zhan Suiru had been dreaming.

Her world was destroyed by her own hands.

She always dreamed of that day.

Unlimited fed on human desires and negative emotions, which all relied on spirit to produce. The stronger the spirit, the more it could make it feel full.

When Unlimited fought with this world, it began to crave more energy. The dungeon sub-worlds captured by it became its sacrifices. It polluted every living being except Zhan Suiru into anomalies—this was really easy. Even if the pollution couldn’t break through Zhan Suiru’s mental defense circle then, everyone else had been polluted in the past dungeon cycles.

Unlimited only needed to vibrate that past timeline, and the insufficiently heavy beads would vibrate along with the line.

It couldn’t vibrate Zhan Suiru, but this was also what it wanted.

The lord in the apocalyptic world, one of its most delicious fruits.

Zhan Suiru detonated her own ability core, dying together with her world where only pollution remained.

Unlimited wouldn’t get anything from her.

But she didn’t expect herself to survive.

She also didn’t expect their souls were hidden in the ability core.

Yang Ran dug out his core for her before being completely polluted.

Maybe she wouldn’t be the only survivor anymore.

Zhan Suiru teased Xiao Ran: “Brother went to school, not at home now.”

“Only my brother is at home.”

She watched the gears in Xiao Ran’s pupils start turning and getting stuck, looking very conflicted.

Zhan Suiru: “Besides, I haven’t taken orders for a while, nor made things. I can’t make anything at home either.”

Now the puppet butler answered fluently: “It doesn’t matter, I made them.”

He pulled open the curtain, revealing three shelves full of sculptures.

Zhan Suiru was instantly shocked by the ugliness.

Xiao Ran still had a stubbornness towards manufacturing, but he now thought Zhan Suiru’s state wasn’t suitable for hustling, so he hustled himself.

Zhan Suiru then knew that when she wasn’t around, Xiao Ran was making sculptures every day. The studio was almost full!

“This… I… you…” Zhan Suiru lost words for a moment.

Although Xiao Ran had no expression on his face, the meaning in his actions was quite proud.

“I’ll take a batch to the studio over there.” Zhan Suiru recovered from the shock of ugliness and gave Xiao Ran a big thumbs up, “Very good, continue!”

Meanwhile in the studio, Qi Ye was facing the computer to enter the net.

She originally just intended to clean the studio as usual today and didn’t plan to use her superpower here. But halfway through cleaning, she suddenly received an urgent distress message from Wan Shitong—this guy was besieged by network anomalies near the game world.

To save this unreliable partner, Qi Ye had to enter the net using the computer in the studio first.

Arriving at the place, Qi Ye realized how miserably Wan Shitong was besieged. He was like a piece of cake, surrounded by ant-like anomalies outside. They copied and multiplied rapidly like viruses. Wan Shitong cleared a batch and another batch came, being blocked just a few steps away from the game world.

Qi Ye observed and prepared to enter the game world from another place. The game world was meticulously built by her and Wan Shitong. Its built-in defense and attack capabilities were almost a mobile fortress in the network world.

Did Wan Shitong get blocked outside before he could enter the game world? Why didn’t he use the game world to clear anomalies?

Arriving outside the barrier of the game world, Qi Ye saw the message Wan Shitong attached to it:

“Can’t open door virus”

The message was left very hastily, and Qi Ye became alert instantly.

She caught a few anomalies and discovered something wrong with them. They not only multiplied extremely fast but also mutated extremely fast and were extremely tiny, almost able to hide in the cracks of information without being discovered.

When the game world didn’t open its entrance and exit, its defense was seamless. But if she and Wan Shitong opened the door to enter or exit, creating a gap, these virus anomalies might hide in the cracks of information and get in. No, not might, these anomalies were designed for this! Someone targeted their game world.

No wonder Wan Shitong didn’t return to the game world. He couldn’t go back, he dared not go back.

Qi Ye found these virus anomalies extremely troublesome, not something she and Wan Shitong alone could handle. They needed to find help. But Wan Shitong was under siege and didn’t seem able to hold on for much longer.

She had to save Wan Shitong first, then find someone.

Qi Ye went to fish him out.

Then she got stuck in too.

Damn! These things have even figured out her and Wan Shitong’s abilities!

Wan Shitong looked at her guiltily: “I only discovered it after getting stuck. Didn’t have time to leave you a letter.”

Qi Ye: “It’s okay, the two of us can hold on a bit longer. I sent the message out, wait for someone to come save us.”

She was prepared in advance. Before getting completely stuck, she had time to send out the detailed situation along with the distress message. Just didn’t know how long it would take for someone to come.

But now there was another trouble—after getting completely stuck, they disconnected from their bodies, looking like they fell asleep on the surface. Wan Shitong entered the net in a safe environment, but Qi Ye was in the studio.

Fortunately, Sister Zhan usually wouldn’t come, so it should be fine.

Zhan Suiru sensed something wrong as soon as she entered the studio.

She found Qi Ye lying prone in front of the computer. Qi Ye’s eyes were closed, breathing steady, face normal, looking like she fell asleep.

But Zhan Suiru sensed her spiritual power connected to the computer.

Spiritual power… Since coming to this world, Zhan Suiru hadn’t seen such pure external release of spiritual power. They were often used in the form of spiritual consciousness condensed by cultivators, or combined with some kind of spell, never appearing alone.

Zhan Suiru thought this was a unique rule of this world.

She stared at the seemingly sleeping Qi Ye, countless thoughts flashing through her mind in an instant.

Such spiritual power is far beyond ordinary people. Qi Ye is a superpowered individual.

Her spirit entered the network. So network-type superpowered individuals are like this.

…

In this world, pure spiritual power can only be used in the network, usually suppressed.

No wonder she never discovered Qi Ye was a superpowered individual.

…

But this rule is very strange; it shouldn’t be the original rule of this world.

…

Zhan Suiru extended her hand towards the computer, imitating Qi Ye’s spiritual power to contact it.

She always thought her spiritual power was destroyed along with her ability core and her world. But now she felt the surging spiritual power again, like a long-trapped river finally breaking through the dam and entering the world of the network.

So that’s it.

The concept of this world was replaced by someone.

Spirit = Network

Unlimited couldn’t get full in the real world, so it could only try to obtain negative spiritual energy from the network. But separated by virtual and reality, in a world pieced together by electrical signals, how much could it eat?

Great.

Starve it to death!
