Gu Jiancheng was confused.

Does Dragon Head Yan Yan eat this? What if he doesn’t know how to cook this? Can this be cut up and boiled like cat food? Or just gnawed on raw?

While his mind was in chaos, Zhan Yan had already sucked up the jelly in one bite with an “Ah-woo!”

Zhan Yan smacked his lips. The texture was lighter and softer than jelly, melting in the mouth and sliding down the throat instantly.

He looked down and found that the “Deep Shadow” NPC had stopped at some point and was staring at him. The pitch-black pupils were filled with emotions he couldn’t understand.

“Is it good?”

Zhan Yan savored it: “Tasteless.”

A new Information Word appeared on the information dashboard: “The Lamp Woke Up”, categorized under the “Anomaly” column. Poking it revealed a detailed introduction:

[It’s very dark at home, so I always keep the lights on. On during the day, on at night. As soon as the room gets dark, I get scared. I always feel like something is staring at me.

The lamp sleeps when it’s on; the lamp is only awake when it’s off.

The waking lamp looks at you… looks at you…]

This was an anomaly that had appeared in the Post-Apocalyptic World. Makes sense, this world doesn’t need the concept of this thing, but he can chew it up and eat it.

Gu Jiancheng quickly accepted Yan Yan’s new diet. He knew where there was more.

The “Deep Shadow” NPC nodded deeply: “Walk forward.”

Not long after walking, the “Deep Shadow” NPC suddenly stopped and turned to look at him.

Zhan Yan looked up at the mountain of dumplings in front of him, his mouth gradually opening wide.

S-So many!

Happiness came too suddenly. Zhan Yan looked at the “Deep Shadow” NPC in surprise: “Is this all for me?”

Gu Jiancheng nodded with a great sense of accomplishment. All for you, all for you!

Seeing the “Deep Shadow” NPC nod, Zhan Yan happily gave him a hug: “Thank you!”

Gu Jiancheng was caught off guard and buried his face in the chest of the 2.3-meter-tall Yan Yan.

Gu Jiancheng woke up with a start.

Opening his eyes, the room was pitch black. Gu Jiancheng subconsciously turned to look at Zhan Yan.

No dragon head, not 2.3 meters tall. Gu Jiancheng let out a long sigh of relief.

What a weird dream he had!

Holding hands wasn’t enough to calm Gu Jiancheng’s complicated feelings. He turned over, hugged one of Zhan Yan’s arms, closed his eyes, and fell asleep instantly again.

Just as Zhan Yan gave the “Deep Shadow” NPC a friendly hug, he felt the NPC stiffen, then his embrace became empty, and the “Deep Shadow” NPC disappeared.

Zhan Yan reminisced about the feeling of pressing someone into his embrace with his two-meter height.

Hehe, next time Deep Shadow goes “Hehe” at him, he’ll come play with the “Deep Shadow” NPC!

This place is really nice. But he had to go back and say hello to Nie Yu first, otherwise, if Nie Yu couldn’t contact him, she would probably be worried.

Zhan Yan circled around but couldn’t find the exit.

… “Deep Shadow”, come back here! Tell me how to get out before leaving!

After trying for a long time without success, Zhan Yan decided to lie flat.

Forget it, let’s eat first.

He happily buried himself in the mountain of dumplings.

But why does he feel like he’s eating more and more? Were there this many dumplings surging over before?

Crowded dumplings kept surging from behind him, piling higher and higher. When Zhan Yan looked back, he found that a wall of dumplings had almost piled up behind him.

The soft dumplings wobbled, looking like a dangerous structure that could collapse at any time.

Zhan Yan: !

“Who are you?” Zhan Yan was struggling to climb out of the dumpling pile when he suddenly heard someone ask from behind.

Zhan Yan turned his head with difficulty.

Ow, Sis!

“Quick, give me a hand!”

After entering the Dawn World, Zhan Suiru usually checked the core area first. This concerned the progress of the Post-Apocalyptic World’s integration and the recovery of those souls from the apocalypse.

Souls from the two worlds were different; souls from the apocalypse also accumulated injuries from time resets. They couldn’t participate in this world’s reincarnation cycle for now. The Dawn World was a good recuperation area. After the apocalyptic souls underwent time adjustment and healing here, they could join this world’s reincarnation cycle.

The core area was the same as usual, with clusters of light concepts dripping down.

Zhan Suiru reached out and caught one.

A small red dumpling landed in her palm.

“Red Bo Leaf,” the juice washed out with water solidifies after settling and can be eaten cold.

In the summer, she used to love buying a bowl of Sugar Red Bo on the street, choosing her own toppings to pour over it, sweet and cool.

This world also had similar food, and Zhan Suiru had found some to try. Grass jelly, fairy tofu, ice jelly… black, green, transparent, but none had the pink tenderness of Sugar Red Bo. The texture was similar, but the aroma was different.

After tasting them, Zhan Suiru didn’t specifically look for them again.

She turned her palm over, watching the small dumpling fall onto the sea surface, turning into a pool of pink ripples.

Maybe before long, plants similar to Red Bo trees would appear in this world too.

Zhan Suiru looked up at the sky. Hmm… feels like the concepts are dripping faster than before? It seems the integration speed of concepts has also increased.

Where is that NPC with a temperament very similar to Deep Shadow?

The NPC created by Wan Shitong was very special. Somehow, it was targeted by this world, treating this NPC as its own tool person, making him execute whatever tasks were needed. The time Zhan Suiru was robbed of a world fragment before, he was the one stalling and trading.

This NPC usually didn’t run around and always stayed in the core area. Why wasn’t he here today?

Zhan Suiru reached out and caught another dumpling.

“Screaming Ear,” this was an anomaly concept. Zhan Suiru casually tossed it down, watching the concept cluster roll away pushed by the waves.

Catching another one: “Black Kitchen,” another anomaly concept.

“1.8-meter Eyelashes,” “Blood-thirsty Pen”… Why were there so many anomaly concepts?

Zhan Suiru observed carefully.

The concepts falling down were generally random, but the direction unaccepted concepts were pushed wasn’t random. They were categorized according to some rule and pushed in different directions.

Now, there were exceptionally many concept dumplings rolling towards the “Anomaly” direction, and anomaly concept dumplings were also raining down from the sky.

What is it doing? Planning to focus on clearing out unusable concepts first? Then how will it deal with these anomaly concepts?

The rapidly falling concepts almost squeezed into a dumpling path.

Deep red, light pink, golden orange… big and small, surging forward crowded together.

Seeing this spectacle for the first time, Zhan Suiru curiously walked forward along this path.

Walking along, she saw a Dragon Head muscular man nearly buried by the dumpling pile.

Zhan Suiru pulled him out and discovered he had a pass imprint left by that NPC, allowing him to enter and exit the core area freely.

Understood. Now that there’s this person… or rather demon, who can eat concept dumplings, the Dawn World wants to take the opportunity to clear out the unusable concept dumplings first, lest they affect its integration efficiency.

But what demon can eat concept dumplings?

Zhan Yan heaved a huge sigh of relief after getting free from the concept dumplings: “Thank you, thank you!”

The “Deep Shadow” NPC is truly unreliable. Fortunately, Sis saved him, or he would have been drowned!

Zhan Suiru had a good impression of him.

The sooner the apocalypse fully merged with this world, the sooner the souls from the apocalypse would recover.

She was very curious about this Dragon Head person who could eat concepts: “Who are you?”

Is there any dragon-related demon that can eat this much?

Taotie? Heard there are two versions of the Nine Sons of the Dragon, one with Taotie and one without. Could the first version be true?

Zhan Yan: “…Don’t you recognize me? I taught you the basics of Network Types before!”

Zhan Suiru: Oh, Little Squirrel… He looks like this? Completely different from imagination!

“Are you a demon?”

Zhan Yan realized his sister’s train of thought had gone astray and immediately nodded: “Yes, yes!”

Sister has four layers of vests (identities); why can’t he have one more layer?

Zhan Suiru: “How can you swallow these things?”

Zhan Yan started spouting nonsense: “This is my innate supernatural power.”

Zhan Suiru understood. No wonder that NPC let him in.

Zhan Yan looked at the increasing number of dumplings and began to worry happily: “When will I finish eating so many?”

Zhan Suiru asked him: “How do you eat them?”

Zhan Yan demonstrated for her. He picked up a dumpling, opened his mouth, and took a bite with an “Ah-woo.”

Zhan Suiru: Understood. The spiritual concepts of this world have been covered; they don’t know how to use spiritual power.

Concepts belonged to the spiritual category. Eating them one by one with a mouth like this would take forever.

“I’ll teach you.” Zhan Suiru demonstrated the application of spiritual power.

Snow-white spiritual power wove into a net, catching a large batch of concept dumplings. Each concept dumpling was connected to a spiritual thread, all held in Zhan Suiru’s hand.

“Like this, you can eat a lot at once.”

Zhan Yan constructed a giant juice cup, filling it mostly with concept dumplings. A blender was placed inside the cup.

“Vrrm——” The blender started.

Zhan Suiru watched dumbfounded as he stopped blending and stuck a straw into the juice cup.

Slurp——Burp~

Collecting super-many Information Words at once, Zhan Yan narrowed his eyes happily: “Thank you.”

Sister is so good!

Zhan Suiru couldn’t help but smile. She felt the little dragon demon wasn’t very old, always coming up with fresh ideas, like her little brother, quite cute.

Fluctuations occurred in the core area again. Zhan Suiru sensed someone coming; it was Wan Shitong. As builders of the game world, he and Qi Ye also had permission to enter the core area.

The identity of Red Crystal had no reason to appear here unless she revealed herself as Rongsui. But Zhan Suiru didn’t plan to do so.

Red Crystal was a Network Type; Rongsui was a Psychic Type.

If the identities of “Red Crystal” and “Rongsui” were equated, many people would associate the relationship between “Network” and “Psychic.” This would be an extra burden for an existence that used the “Network” concept to cover the “Psychic” concept.

“Don’t say I’ve been here.” Zhan Suiru disappeared after speaking.

Zhan Yan: …Wait! Sis, teach me how to get out first!

However, Zhan Suiru was already gone.

Great, didn’t manage to keep her again.

Zhan Yan sat distressed, no longer eating dumplings.

He wouldn’t be stuck here all night, right? He still had to go to work tomorrow.

[Wan Shitong is heading to the core area to find you.]

Zhan Yan’s eyes lit up.

Wan Shitong was feeling a bit dazed right now.

He just remembered his superpower wasn’t surfing the internet. Right, relying solely on the ability to surf the internet, he survived in the Infinite; his true superpower must be super luck.

So he was actually a Psychic Type. For twenty-six years, he always thought he was a useless information scrub who only knew how to surf the net. Sometimes when the Boss wanted to eliminate more anomalies, he couldn’t find enough information, so the Boss would go to ‘Approaching Science’.

But now he knew, he was originally a Psychic Type! He could kill enemies on the offense and provide logistics on the defense! He was more powerful than ‘Approaching Science’ hahaha!

‘Approaching Science’, isn’t he just an Information Type? Can’t even enter the Dawn World.

Wan Shitong felt smug.

But he also knew clearly that something confusing his ability for twenty-six years must be a big deal. He couldn’t talk about this casually; he had to discuss it with his Boss. Hey, does the Boss know there’s a problem with this world, that his Psychic ability was blurred into a Network Type?

Wan Shitong recalled carefully, unsure.

The Boss was smart and deep-minded; even if he knew and hid it from him, he wouldn’t be able to tell.

Forget it, help Network Ghost find Dragon Head first, then go find the Boss to discuss Psychic and Network Types.

By the way, what is the background of this “Dragon Head”? The NPC he made based on the Boss had never spoken to him! Why could Dragon Head talk to him as soon as he entered?!

Zhan Yan didn’t wait long before seeing Wan Shitong.

He scrutinized Zhan Yan for a moment: “Dragon Head?”

[Nie Yu temporarily assigned the code name “Dragon Head” to your Network Type identity.]

Zhan Yan: …You guys at the Abnormal Affairs Management Bureau really just call it as you see it. From “Red Crystal” to “Dragon Head,” completely ignoring whether it sounds good or not, right?

Wan Shitong: “Network Ghost has been looking for you.”

Zhan Yan climbed up from the soft dumpling pile: “Thanks for coming to find me; I’ve been looking for a way out for ages here.”

Wan Shitong also drew a magic circle and brought him out.

Zhan Yan opened his eyes again and returned to the Novice Village. The situation here was very different from when he left.

In the Novice Village pond, a half-dead mermaid was flopping around, tail twitching like a cramp: “Help! I can’t swim!”

Rolling down the Novice Village hillside was an angel desperately flapping wings: “Move, move, move! Why don’t the wings work?!”

Clinging to a big tree in the Novice Village was a person with claws and a long tail: “Help, I can’t get down from the tree!”

On the Novice Village road, there was a centaur tripping every two steps.

Zhan Yan: …

Nie Yu popped up beside him: “Hey, why does the appearance you created work well, but theirs don’t?”

Zhan Yan: “I didn’t have time to tell you, the appearance created only works for surface organs.”

The mermaid’s gills were created in vain; they were just slits on the neck. The Network Type who created the mermaid could originally swim, but now with a tail, they couldn’t, flopping miserably in the pond.

The angel’s wings could flap, but firstly he didn’t know how to use them, and secondly, his bone density was too high; even if he flapped, he couldn’t fly.

Don’t even mention the centaur. He’d need a while to tame his six limbs.

Nie Yu looked at the Monkey-Tail person with frustration: “Your claws and tail work fine, why can’t you climb down a tree?”

The Monkey-Tail person stuck in the tree cried: “I’ve been working in an office my whole life; I’ve never climbed a tree since I was little…”

Knowing how to maximize the benefits of creating an appearance was at least a gain.

Zhan Yan helped Nie Yu rescue the others and supported the four-legged centaur to the exit of the Dawn World.

The centaur shuffled step by step, stopped at the entrance, and looked back at Nie Yu: “Does this count as a work injury?”

Before finding a way to re-create characters in the Dawn World, this centaur account was considered useless.

Nie Yu: “Counts, counts.”

Zhan Yan learned from Wan Shitong how to enter and exit the core area. Nie Yu enviously followed along to learn—but learning was useless. Without a pass imprint, she couldn’t enter.

The current game world had merged with the apocalypse. Wan Shitong and Qi Ye couldn’t give others pass imprints to the core either; only the “Deep Shadow” NPC, who represented the will of this world to some extent, could grant imprints.

Wan Shitong was confused while teaching him: “Why would he give you the imprint to freely enter and exit the core area?”

Eating concepts couldn’t be exposed casually. Zhan Yan continued to make up lies: “Don’t know, maybe he finds me pleasing to the eye.”

Nie Yu: “Hmm?”

Zhan Yan pointed to his dragon head: “Just say if this isn’t unique.”

Nie Yu: “You wait, I’ll call someone to create a dragon head right now.”

Zhan Yan wasn’t going to wait. He had stayed in the Dawn World long enough tonight; he still had to work tomorrow.

After exiting the Dawn World, Zhan Yan first opened the information dashboard to take a look.

Previously he was only focused on eating and didn’t pay attention to how these Information Words were collected.

The “Anomaly” column had saved up another little star for him. Other sub-columns hadn’t moved.

Zhan Yan: ???

Wait, so all those he ate were anomaly information?

Scroll gossip feed, scroll gossip feed!

…So those concept dumplings were categorized.

Okay, next time he goes, he’ll switch directions. Quite convenient actually.

First, let’s see what little star the Anomaly column saved up for him:

[Do you know how to do jigsaw puzzles? It doesn’t matter if you don’t, because this function has nothing to do with jigsaw puzzles.

——Little Encyclopedia Search, making a dazzling debut!

From now on, whether you want to know exactly how many points your sister has, or why the village cow won’t produce milk, you can use the Little Encyclopedia to search! But no next lottery winning numbers.]

Zhan Yan’s eyes lit up.

Ahhh, this function means his retrieval function is no longer limited to searching gossip feed, but can be used as an encyclopedia search, right?

Immediately open the search bar, input: “How to solve the Infinite Curse on Yang Ran?”
