The Player's Speculation

This deduction shocked Shen Hao. This person was too amazing; they actually figured out the identity of the Anomalous Instance boss.

Shen Hao continued browsing his posts.

"Of course, there isn't much evidence to support my speculation, but if it's true, it might mean that the BOSS is reading my post right now."

Let me explain why I made this conjecture.

First, following the pattern of Anomalous Instance appearances, from beginner Instance to SS-level Instance, it feels like this BOSS is a player who has been constantly improving from a beginner to where he is today.

In this process, his methods became increasingly ruthless and his abilities grew stronger, just like a player who was constantly improving, except that he played the role of the BOSS.

Another issue is the anomaly that occurred in Zhongzhou City before, which is too similar to the BOSS's abilities.

If I'm not mistaken, he's right next to us, probably a player, but his class might be different from the normal player's.

"Regarding the BOSS's identity, I have another speculation: he may be someone related to the Lord of the Netherworld, or he may be the Lord of the Netherworld himself."

The Lord of the Netherworld is dead, and he is currently recovering his power, giving us the feeling that the Anomalous Instance boss is constantly getting stronger.

I think those are the two possibilities.

In short, the Anomalous Instance boss is definitely opposed to all of us players. If we can't kill him, something terrible will surely happen in the real world.

Shen Hao admired this person greatly; what he said made a lot of sense, and his conclusions were correct.

He also felt that he was connected to the Lord of the Netherworld.

He must also be connected to Demons, but what is the relationship between that Demon and the Lord of the Netherworld?

They seem to be the same person, they have a special connection, and their fates are the same: they are both devoured by the gods of the Netherworld.

But they don't seem to be the same person, because their styles of doing things are completely different.

The Lord of the Netherworld is too kind to the humans of the Netherworld, which is why he has many followers, but Demons certainly wouldn't do the same.

From this perspective, they are definitely not the same person.

Shen Hao couldn't figure it out for a moment.

Continuing to browse the posts, this person posted some more strategies for dealing with Anomalous Instance.

"If I enter Anomalous Instance, I might choose to commit suicide immediately."

Without a doubt, the bosses in Anomalous Instance are very strong, and even with Instance, they are difficult for ordinary people to defeat.

The main problem is that the BOSS's domain is just too powerful; we wouldn't even have a chance to commit suicide in front of him.

Furthermore, he wouldn't easily allow players to commit suicide.

I don't think anyone can clear the Anomalous Instance, let alone survive it.

The only way to defeat this boss is to check out the Special Instance a month from now.

Also, this BOSS is utterly dishonest, despicable, shameless, extremely cruel, and has no compassion. Do not be misled by him, and do not make any deals with him.

Once you fall into the hands of the BOSS, there's no point in begging for mercy. No matter what you do, he will torture you with extremely cruel methods.

So just curse directly; at least you'll gain some verbal advantage and feel better.

Players who are currently around level 30 or higher are advised to minimize their time spent in matchmaking Instance.

Because once you enter Anomalous Instance and die inside, the experience points lost will be so huge that all your previous efforts will be wasted.

Seeing this, Shen Hao felt very unhappy because this person actually suggested that players should commit suicide as soon as they confirmed that this was Anomalous Instance.

If those players really do that, he really won't be able to defend against it.

Shouldn't we at least offer some symbolic resistance?

But from another perspective, committing suicide as soon as you enter the Instance might be the best option.

However, some people still disagree.

"Are you kidding me? If you commit suicide as soon as you enter Instance, you'll lose 90% of your experience points!"

"If I were to enter Anomalous Instance, I would definitely try to get out of Instance alive, or at least obtain the permanent Instance."

"You're all terrified by these Anomalous Instance. You won't die, what's so scary about it? You dare call yourselves Horror Game players?"

Judging by their appearance, the person upstairs is definitely no higher than level ten.

"It's not that no one has ever survived Anomalous Instance. One of my friends successfully survived one and even gained a permanent Anomalous Instance."

Therefore, Anomalous Instance are not insurmountable.

"Nonsense, if someone really came out alive, why hasn't anyone come out to speak?"

"Exactly, such a big thing, and not a single word has been leaked?"

"Believe it or not, some people actually survived the Anomalous Instance. According to my friend, there were several, and they all received permanent bonuses."

Shen Hao was surprised to see this comment, because he was 100% certain that no one had escaped from his grasp.

He always completes his tasks 100% of the time.

There can't possibly be another Demon like him. Is this person just bragging?

That's possible, but he decided he still needed to confirm it.

He couldn't verify this before, but now he can.

Now that he has awakened the power of the Eye of Cause and Effect, now is the time to use it.

With just a little cause and effect, he can see and access the origin of things.

Even the slightest clue cannot stop the Demon from discovering the truth.

"Okay, if you're bluffing, then go to hell. If you're telling the truth, then you've really let your friend down."

Shen Hao decided to use the power of the Eye of Cause and Effect.

He looked at the text on the screen and activated his ability.

In that instant, everything around them changed, and everything in front of them vanished.

He saw countless lines, densely packed and intertwined, each line concealing a wealth of information.

Even with his current strong mental strength, he couldn't fully process all this information in a short time.

He knew that these lines were cause and effect, the cause and effect of everything in the world, and that he could see what was hidden behind these lines.

Whether now or in the past, nothing escapes his notice.

Everything in the world is connected; even people who seem to have nothing in common may have invisible connections.

In principle, Shen Hao can find the person or thing he wants to find by following any clue.

However, such consumption is also very high, and it takes too much time.

He needs to process a lot of useless information to find what he's looking for.

But now, with that player's online message as a clue, he can easily find what he's looking for.

Sure enough, he saw it; among the dense, interwoven lines, one was gleaming.

That was exactly what he was looking for.

By following this line, he can find the answer he seeks.
