To some extent, the West Pavilion Gardener gives a very good impression, bringing a feeling of being bathed in a spring breeze.

"That's right, Player must unite in the face of Anomaly. I support that argument, so what?"

Looking at the West Pavilion Gardener in front of him, Bai Zhi raised an eyebrow slightly.

"You came all this way just to say these things, didn't you?"

"Don't worry, I'm not interested in those kinds of interests, and I wasn't handling the negotiations for [Noah's Ark] either."

Seemingly realizing something, West Pavilion Gardener let out a slight sigh.

"While Anomaly may transcend national boundaries, Player do belong to different nations. Those who use the guise of righteousness to demand a share of [Noah's Ark] without contributing a single penny are the truly shameless ones. I am not one of them."

"You've mistaken me for someone else. I'm not from the Relevant Department."

Rolling his eyes, Bai Zhi looked somewhat speechless.

"It's pointless for you to say things like that to me, isn't it?"

"I know these words are just for better cooperation in the future."

With an expression that said, "I already understand, there's no need for you to say more, "West Pavilion Gardener nodded.

"In this next Dungeon, I hope we can cooperate amicably... Also, be extra careful of one person."

"... Gelina?"

"Yes, I've dealt with her before; she's a complete Madman."

West Pavilion Gardener nodded with a slightly solemn expression.

"Back in the West, everyone in the [Gold Hunter Group] is a notorious wanted criminal, and even within the [Gold Hunter Group], she's an absolute Inhuman Existence, especially fond of seeking thrills and Wu Chang... I never expected her to come here too."

"Madman who loves seeking thrills..."

As if moved, Bai Zhi turned his head to look at the tracks. Accompanied by a white light approaching from afar, a silver-white train quietly entered the station.

Crowded, noisy...

On the bustling subway, a boy who was sitting on a chair with his hands down and his hands behind his head, seemingly sleeping, suddenly opened his eyes.

(Subway... role-playing mode? No, I have all my items and the clothes are correct...)

Without raising his head, Bai Zhi listened to the sounds coming from beside him and quickly began to think.

His current memory only extends to the moment he and West Pavilion Gardener stepped off the carriage together. When he opened his eyes again, he found himself already here.

Beneath me were the sounds of the subway running, and the surrounding area was bustling with noise—some people were talking loudly on their phones, others were chatting incessantly, and all sorts of sounds mingled together.

(There were no System Prompt or tasks for the book, and the System Interface couldn't be brought up... Is this the Dungeon with a 0% survival rate? Ordinary World, how ordinary it really is...)

Bai Zhi closed his eyes again and activated his God's Perspective.

As an Elite Level Support Equipment, [Pluto] is quite powerful. The God's Perspective effect alone has helped him countless times.

From the third-person perspective provided by God's Perspective, Bai Zhi could clearly see the entire scene around him.

He was indeed on a running subway train, which was packed with people. The carriages were Lights lit, and occasionally, a few brightly lit billboards would flash by in the dark scenery outside the window.

Directly opposite him sat a kind-looking elderly man, thanking a female University Student who had offered him her seat. Beside him sat a middle-aged office worker with a briefcase, his head bowed like the man's, seemingly resting, his briefcase tucked under his arm. To his left, near the door, a heavily made-up Woman with a bag was intently playing on her phone... This was an utterly common scene on the subway.

The God's Perspective is a comprehensive observation from a third-person perspective, which cannot see further. Therefore, Bai Zhi can only see the people in his own subway car; he cannot observe the other cars.

The total number of people in the entire carriage is 34.

After searching through all these people, Bai Zhi couldn't find West Pavilion Gardener. He didn't know if she was in another carriage or somewhere else.

But no matter how he looked at it, Bai Zhi didn't see anything dangerous here. It was just an ordinary day in the subway, and he didn't sense any impending danger.

(Is this Ordinary World really just Ordinary World? But the people in this train carriage are flesh and blood, some breathing, some with heartbeats... This doesn't seem like an illusion.)

After thinking for a moment, Bai Zhi quietly moved his heels below where he was sitting. As he did so, several black shadows silently disappeared into the Shadow beneath his feet.

The two shadows will go to the front and back carriages respectively, while the third shadow will disappear directly into the subway through the door crack.

Better safe than sorry. Given this unclear and unpredictable start, it's best to play it safe...!!!

Bai Zhi's expression suddenly changed drastically.

The Shadow Guard he summoned all died in an instant.

Keep in mind, those were beings lurking in the shadows. He hadn't even given any orders yet, and they were all suddenly wiped out in an instant. He didn't even know how they died...

(There are two possibilities for the time being: one is that no abnormal creatures are allowed in this Dungeon; the other is that Man-eating Monster are lurking in the darkness...)

Having abandoned the idea of continuing to summon the Shadow Guard, Bai Zhi quickly began to think.

Either of these possibilities being true is rather bad news for him.

If the appearance of any abnormal creatures is not allowed, will Player also be included in this rule?

If Man-eating Monster lurk in the darkness, would I be instantly killed like the Shadow Guard if I sneaked into the Shadow?

Wait, something seems off...

Suddenly realizing something, Bai Zhi snapped out of his thoughts.

Without his knowledge, the carriages he was in suddenly became quiet, as if his summoning of the Shadow Guard had triggered a switch. The once noisy carriages fell silent in an instant.

"..."

Under Bai Zhi's God's Perspective gaze, at a certain moment, all 34 Passenger in the carriage, excluding himself, slowly turned their heads and fixed their gazes firmly on him.
