Bizarre and Absurd World

Each Player has their own dedicated system Light Screen, and the content projected on the system Light Screen is invisible to others.

Seeing the long string of System Prompt popping up on his system screen, Bai Zhi didn't intend to make a decision immediately. Instead, he called over all three of his Teammate.

"Dominator Authority? Requires 1000 Game Coins per day?"

After Bai Zhi finished explaining all the information, OriginDeficit frowned slightly.

"Seven Days is a whole lot of Game Coins. Do you have that much Game Coins on you?"

"No, only a little over 6,000."

Bai Zhi glanced at the new message that had popped up on the system Light Screen in front of him, and his expression became slightly strange.

"I just got another System Prompt. Because of the Special nature of this mission, I can borrow money from the system at a low interest rate. The daily interest for 1000 Game Coins is 100... Holy crap, is this some kind of robbery?!"

"Uh... I have 2000 Game Coins here. If you want them, I can lend them to you later."

After thinking for a moment, Young Feather raised his hand.

"But are you really sure you want to inherit this so-called Dominator's authority? Not only have we not seen any of the promised rewards, but the price we have to pay is so high, and there will even be severe penalties if we fail the mission... It all seems like such a bad deal?"

"Give it a try... By the way, you guys can try it too."

As if suddenly remembering something, Bai Zhi spoke to the three people in front of him.

"The period for obtaining Dominator Authority is one day, starting from midnight each day, with the first day being an exception. You only need to pay a rental fee of 1000 Game Coins to have your fill."

Won't their tasks conflict with each other?

Ink-Stained Crystal frowned slightly.

"The mission requires you to defeat all the Dominator, right? And then we end up killing each other?"

"Why not just not renew the lease on the last day? There's a lot of room for maneuver."

Shrugging, Bai Zhi clicked the "agree" option directly.

The moment he clicked the "agree" option, the world before his eyes was turned upside down in an instant.

This is a bizarre and absurd world.

Before his eyes, an indescribable and bizarre scene was unfolding in the sky: above the pure white Tian Kong, thin lines... or rather, Fish Hook, were hanging down.

The Tian Kong and the earth seemed to be entangled in a blood-red spider web, with these Fish Hook, glowing with a faint crimson light, cutting the entire world into pieces.

These Fish Hook were scattered at varying distances throughout different areas of the city, with the closest one Fish Hook just a few meters away from him.

Like the Fishing Line, the Fish Hook had a faint blood-red glow, and it was more than ten times larger than a regular Fish Hook, with an exceptionally sharp tip.

--The Fish Hook was dangling slightly around them.

Many more Fish Hook plunged straight into the building, or rather, into the water. Even from a great distance away from their high-rise, Bai Zhi could vaguely see a large, whale-shaped white ball of light struggling as it was lifted into the Tian Kong by a Blood-colored Fishhook.

... and books... So, is this Water City and all those sharks and whales in the water really involved in aquaculture?

Thinking of this, Bai Zhi's expression became rather strange.

If no new Zombie are added to the city over a hundred years, then based on the density of these Fish Hook, almost all the Zombie that could be caught have already been hooked.

From this perspective, this place is essentially at its wit's end; the so-called cycle may not be able to continue for many more times... Perhaps this is why the last Player in this world chose to participate in this Large-scale Campaign Quest?

However, this place is completely beyond saving. What's the point of them doing this? To rescue someone from here? If so, who are they rescuing? Is it that Fuzi? Judging from the previous conversation, that Fuzi seemed to know them quite well...

A myriad of thoughts flashed through Bai Zhi's mind.

Shaking his head slightly, Bai Zhi stopped thinking about anything else and then looked up at the Dominator above him.

... An even more shocking scene unfolded before him.

Several long vines hung down from the Tian Kong, firmly binding and suspending the Dominator above. One of the vines even burrowed directly into the top of the Dominator's head.

The origin of these vines is unknown; although they all hang from the Tian Kong, they clearly do not originate from the same place as the hooks.

--In the darkness, there seemed to be a huge, indistinct phantom stretching across the sky.

"Has the whole world turned into Anomaly? I feel like the Type I'm encountering this time is completely different from the ones I've met before..."

After staring at the Tian Kong for a while, Bai Zhi lowered his gaze and gently pressed his eyes, which were slightly sore from staring for too long.

During this time, they all knew that he had obtained some other clues, and the other three tacitly refrained from disturbing him.

When Bai Zhi turned his gaze to the three of them, he clearly noticed the unusual relationship between himself and them.

Perhaps because he inherited the so-called authority of the Dominator, Bai Zhi was able to clearly observe that around him was a faint blood-red aura, the same as that of the Blood-colored Fishhook hanging from the Tian Kong.

However, within this crimson aura, there was a thin white membrane, just like the situation on Yuan OriginDeficit and the other two, except that they lacked the outer layer of crimson aura to conceal them.

"So, did you find anything new?"

Seeing that Bai Zhi's gaze had finally turned to him, Young Feather was the first to ask him a question.

"There are some, I suppose..."

Bai Zhi reached up and touched the back of his neck, thought for a moment, and then began to speak.

"The Digital Serial Number on the back of my neck has disappeared. In other words, I can now use Equipment, items, or Skill at will... But you'd better be careful, at least until today is over and don't break the rules."

Will you be affected after reloading the save file?

OriginDeficit's eyes flickered slightly.

"Of course, this is Timeline Reset."

Bai Zhi nodded.

"However, the system clearly states that the 1000 Game Coins deducted from me will not be returned after the reset... so you understand?"

Bai Zhi smiled quite kindly.

"If it really gets reset, remember to compensate me for my losses. I won't take advantage of you; let's just settle for 50% interest."

Others: "..."
