"What kind of Demons and Monsters are these?"

The moment Feng Xue stepped through the gate that appeared out of nowhere, everything went black before her eyes. It wasn't because it was dark or she was blinded, but simply because she was completely obscured by dense text.

This damned world was full of True Thing, but each one was covered with a large amount of text, almost filling Feng Xue's entire field of vision.

"Sigh..." Feng Xue sighed, saying helplessly:

"Start broadcast function, delay set to 0.001s."

"Understood." The Kamen Rider's Onboard Computer responded, and the text in front of him quickly disappeared.

As mentioned before, Feng Xue's Golden Finger requires direct viewing, which includes live camera footage without time difference, such as the built-in display of the Kamen Rider Armor or the interface of the Mecha-World, all of which meet the conditions for using the Golden Finger ability.

Conversely, even a delay of only one-thousandth could cause his Golden Finger to fail.

Of course, doing this will result in a slight reduction in his visual senses, but given his spiritual intuition and awareness of his Circle Realm, the impact is not significant.

However, even this brief, fleeting glimpse allowed him to understand the hidden characteristics beneath the surface of this world's normal reality—

Highly active information.

Whether it's because this world is special, because of faith, or simply because some gods in this world have set a trap through their powers, in any case, even real people in this world have a large number of extremely active Tag (normally the protagonist cannot see the Tag on living people).

Considering the circumstances of Aoyagi Lantern's explosion, this Tag might have adhesive or conductive properties, allowing it to spontaneously combine with external Tag to create one-time-use Phantom Object or Weird Tale. The fact that Aoyagi Lantern's so-called Tag was shattered likely means that her Eastern Kingdom Tag was directly torn away by the little boy, resulting in this absurd thing called "[Eastern Kingdom Little Boy]".

"So if I had a priest Tag... damn, I can't even think about it!"

Feng Xue banished the thought that it was enough to send her to the School Hell a hundred or eighty times from her mind before she began to take stock of her current location.

Unlike his previous door-crossing experiences, this time he didn't appear behind a door, but instead arrived directly at the entrance of a relatively narrow alley. In front of him was a bustling commercial street, while behind him was a dark alley. There were also discarded aluminum cans and small balloons on the ground, giving him a sense of déjà vu, as if he had returned to Colombia.

"Usually in situations like this, then..."

"Dude, I haven't seen you around here much. We're a bit short on cash, need to borrow some money..."

Hearing the sudden sound behind her, Feng Xue grinned, turned around, and saw several Black-Coated ATM walking up with strange smiles on their faces.

Then they realized that the person in front of them was laughing even more happily than they were.

"Bang bang bang bang bang..."

Three seconds later, several Black-Coated ATM had already fallen to the ground. However, just as Feng Xue took out her phone to check the structure of ambulances in this world, the Black-Coated ATM in front of her suddenly began to distort in ways that were difficult for humans to do. This made Feng Xue immediately step back, turn off the delay, and look at the Tag above the heads of the people.

At this moment, all the Tag on them became distorted, then shattered rapidly like a mosaic above their Omen, only to reform.

Immediately afterwards, a violent shattering sound and the twisting of metal exploded in my ears. Moments later, a machine was stuck in the narrow alley...

"Combine Harvester?"

Feng Xue stared dumbfounded at the thing in front of him, momentarily stunned. However, as the crowd gathered around him, he immediately activated the "Ah Yes Yes Yes" technique to erase his presence and blend into the crowd, listening to the onlookers' discussions.

Then she heard:

"Who's so inconsiderate? Don't they know that farm machinery isn't allowed in the city?"

"Am I the only one curious about how this thing got stuck there?"

"Who knows? This kind of thing happens every now and then, and nobody's ever come out to explain it. Maybe some research institute is experimenting with teleportation technology?"

"Who would use a farm machine for a teleportation experiment?"

"Then tell me what happened?"

"It seems the people of this world lack this knowledge. Is this situation only caused by Weird Tale from outside? Or is it blocked by something?"

Feng Xue pondered for a moment, but didn't think it was because the people of this world hadn't figured out the pattern. After all, if this wasn't a random event, but a problem that happened frequently, then even the most foolish person should have figured out the pattern.

But speaking of which...

"The streets seem to only have Black and White people. Is this a Western-like country? Or is it that Asians don't exist in this world? Well, it's also possible that in ancient times, Asians were considered part of the white population?"

Feng Xue muttered to himself, then his face darkened, because he discovered that his Plunder Authority locked.

"Hmm, is it some kind of Hell Joke like 'Black people are captured and turned into commodities'? Hmm, one Black person is a cotton picker, three Black people are Combine Harvester?"

Thinking of this, Feng Xue immediately took out her phone and found the Electronic Wooden Fish she had downloaded from her Cyber Bodhisattva neighbor. Watching the wooden fish begin to be struck, her mood instantly improved.

"Thank goodness I downloaded this thing before. Hmm, I'll go back to the sixty-first floor and talk to the Bodhisattva again. In this world, one wooden fish might not be enough; it'd be best to get the whole set..."

Feng Xue shrunk the Electronic Wooden Fish and placed it in the upper left corner, opened a browser to access the local network, and then his face darkened.

Because this place was not the Four Extremes he had imagined, but a small country located between the Ideal Country and the Bailin Country. However, because it was in the capital, it could be considered relatively stable. But looking at the briefings about the war between the Bailin Country and the Ideal Country at the top of the search rankings, Feng Xue could feel the pressure of being caught between two great powers.

"Luckily, I'm not a local."

Feng Xue pondered for a moment, adjusted her appearance from her Hermit state, and then obtained a Student ID from the School Hell.

Don't underestimate this thing. As Phantom Object, it serves to "verify identity." Even if no one knows about the school School Hell," they will still recognize its authority and legitimacy.

This might not have been so important in ancient times, but in today's quasi-modern society, a legal identity is clearly very important.

After doing all this, Feng Xue took out her Alligator Wallet, her expensive pen, put on her ring, and put her pocket watch in her pocket. On the surface, she undoubtedly looked like a wealthy second-generation heir, but anyone with a bit of knowledge would understand that she must be a big shot from Bailang.

Looking at her current makeup in the phone mirror, Feng Xue slung her beloved Guitar Case over her shoulder and smiled with satisfaction.

"Perfect!"
