"Yes, I have already sent the Investigation Team to various countries to conduct a thorough investigation."

"Although they may exploit loopholes in the safety buff, the safety buff still provides a great deal of security and stability."

Kong Yubo tapped the desktop; the security buff only lasted for one day.

During this period, they did try to find lower-level Dungeon to conquer.

However, whether it's because the Horror Game has just arrived or because of the fear of the Contract Anomalist, very few Dungeon have been discovered in the Xia Kingdom so far.

A while ago, we discovered a B-rank Dungeon. The Investigation Team entered it several times, but each time they only managed to achieve the simplest completion condition.

The Investigation Team made considerable efforts and sacrifices to conquer this Dungeon.

However, B-level Dungeon are not so easy to conquer. Even B-level Contract Anomalist of equal strength would find it quite troublesome to deal with the bizarre bosses of the Malignant Curse level.

What about these ordinary people who only possess special weapons?

"There's only one day left," Kong Yubo sighed, his brows furrowed with worry and anxiety.

A month has passed since the Horror Game was released.

However, as time went on, more and more strange things appeared, and they couldn't come up with any more ways to deal with them.

This leads them to rely more on special weapons and numbers to suppress and contain the supernatural beings, sacrificing a certain number of people in the process.

This method is only suitable for low-level weirdness.

If they encounter a high-level anomaly, even if they sacrifice human lives, they are merely providing power to that anomaly.

High-level anomalies can only be contained with the help of Contract Anomalist.

Therefore, the status of the Contract Anomalist has not only not declined over time, but has even continued to rise in various countries.

In some small countries, the status of any Contract Anomalist tends to rival that of the country's leader.

There's nothing we can do. Those small countries have neither money nor power. They can't afford to buy special weapons, and they don't have much say in the international arena.

Now, in the month since this strange phenomenon began, it's not just one or two small countries that have been plagued by it or even destroyed.

They're scared too!

If the Contract Anomalist could cast even a fraction of their attention, some small nations might have already offered up their supreme leadership positions.

Unfortunately, the Contract Anomalist never intervened in relations between nations.

"If we fail again today, then we will have to ask the Contract Anomalist for help."

Kong Yubo said helplessly.

This was a last resort, taken only when absolutely necessary.

Of course, it's not that the Xia Kingdom is unwilling to pay a huge price to gain the help of the Contract Anomalist, but rather that the Contract Anomalist's consistent stance has been to draw clear lines between different countries.

They weren't sure if the other party would agree to their request for help.

The Dungeon exists in another dimension, and theoretically, as long as the strange entities inside don't emerge, they cannot harm life on Blue Star.

The preferred method for the Contract Anomalist is still to contain the strange creatures that have come to Blue Star, because those creatures are the ones that can directly threaten Blue Star and easily grow stronger by devouring humans.

"Regardless of the outcome, it's best to be prepared for both possibilities."

"Tell them to get ready and meet at the Dungeon entrance at 1 PM."

Chen Guangji walked over with a document in his hand. "Captain, I request to go into battle this time."

Chen Guangji's skills ranked among the top five in the Investigation Team. He said he wanted to fight, and Kong Yubo couldn't think of a reason to refuse him.

After careful consideration, Kong Yubo nodded and agreed to his request.

Kong Yubo couldn't participate this time because he needed to stay and investigate the aftermath of the haunted house incident. However, with Chen Guangji the team, he could rest assured to some extent.

Over at the amusement park.

With strange events occurring in the haunted house and so many dead tourists discovered, the amusement park naturally had to close down.

The authorities have ordered the entire amusement park to be sealed off, and it will only reopen after they have dealt with the situation inside the haunted house.

Of course, regardless of how long the amusement park stays open, it's definitely not possible to visit it today.

The Bai Zuo is frustrated.

He found Shen Yu somewhere outside the amusement park. "Chairman ~~~"

Shen Yu put his mask and hood back on. "Having fun?"

"This weirdo is such a downer." (Bai Zuo)

The subtext is that they were initially very happy.

Bai Zuo held a Anomaly Cage in his hand, tossing it up and down in his hand because of his displeasure.

If it weren't for the Anomaly Cage was an alternate space, the noise from the outside world wouldn't affect the strangeness inside.

If the Bai Zuo did this, the bizarre brain matter inside would probably be shaken to its core.

Shen Yu felt somewhat helpless. Bai Zuo's meaning was clear: he wasn't satisfied and wanted to continue playing. However, he always felt that there were many unusual events happening around him.

Was it because there were already many strange things around him, or was it because his special constitution particularly attracted those strange things?

Shen Yu was unsure, since aside from when he was playing Character Card, he rarely used his real body; he mostly stayed at Headquarters.

To verify this hypothesis, he would probably need to be out and about more often.

Seeing that Shen Yu remained silent, Bai Zuo, fearing that the Chairman wouldn't have time to go back, immediately said, "Chairman, I just checked, there's a performance going on on the next street, I'd like to go check it out."

Shen Yu nodded, "See? See?"

Anyway, it's just on the next street, not far away.

Hopefully, nothing strange will happen this time.

The two strolled around casually until they reached the next street. However, neither of them were materialistic people, and although there were many shops selling various items on both sides of the street, they had no intention of going in to buy anything.

Instead, they went to the next street with a very clear purpose.

This is a commercial street.

It seems the store was holding an event and invited an idol to perform a concert.

The idol on stage wasn't very well-known, and his face was relatively unfamiliar, but he sang quite well, and a large audience had gathered below the stage for his performance.

Shen Yu stood not far away, watching his idol perform energetically on stage, and suddenly thought of the several art-related employee cards he had drawn.

It seems he threw them onto Blue Star; I wonder how they're doing now.

Will he also be like these idols, standing on a makeshift stage in a shopping street and performing his heart out?

Could it really be that bad?

Shen Yu opened the system interface and clicked on the employee list.

Fortunately, what he feared did not happen.

These employees truly deserve to be called exceptionally talented individuals; they are among the best in their respective fields.

Moreover, they were not alone and helpless when they first arrived on Blue Star.

They are affiliated with a department of Yi Gui Company.

They have their own department managers who set up suitable channels for them, and there are even affiliated entertainment companies specifically established for them.

In short, these employees did not end up in the tragic situation of busking on the street.
