Seeing the corpse suddenly stand up before them, the priests unanimously insisted that they had not done it.

That's strange.

Could it be that this member of the Hand of the Serpent possesses some kind of Ancient Relic that can bring the dead back to life?

Li Heng looked at the corpse, and saw it slowly extend a finger and point at Li Heng. "You... who are you?"

The corpse's voice was extremely hoarse and slow, with uneven intonation, unlike the voices of a living person.

Li Heng stepped forward. "You don't recognize me?"

Upon hearing this, the corpse repeated its previous question, "Who... are you?"

"Who am I... who are you?" Li Heng asked in return.

The corpse shook its head. "I... no... can't... tell... you... can't... say..."

Li Heng's gaze sharpened; he felt something was off.

It's not the corpse speaking; it's someone controlling the corpse to speak.

"Why hide away? Why not come out and show yourself?"

The corpse did not answer, but instead covered its mouth with its hand.

A short while later, the corpse closed its eyes and fell back down.

Seeing this, Li Heng squatted down and asked, "What exactly is going on?"

Inside a residential building.

Meng Qing was sitting cross-legged on the bed, suddenly opened his eyes. There was a book in front of him.

Meng Qing picked up the book, "A second mouth that can speak for others, uh... my head hurts so much, I've reached my limit again..."

The Man Whose Eyes Were Dug Out

His first chapter is titled, My Voice, His Mouth.

Meng Qing couldn't recall the stories recorded in them no matter how hard he tried; he was the type to forget them as he read them.

It's a strange feeling; you've just read a sentence, but the next second you can't remember what you just read.

After forcing himself to finish reading the chapter over several days, he seemed to receive some kind of revelation and gained a strange ability.

He could sense corpses within a certain range and make his voice travel through the mouth of one of the corpses.

He himself does not need to speak.

Just now, Meng Qing sensed a dead body nearby. He tried to make the corpse speak, and in a moment of confusion, it was as if he had connected with the corpse.

He could feel the body of the deceased and even hear sounds through his ears, but he could not see anything.

It's very strange. I clearly have eyes, but all I see is darkness.

Then he heard people whispering. He tried to ask who the person in front of him was, but the person in front of him asked him who he was instead.

Meng Qing couldn't say anything, of course. Then, the person in front of him seemed to have guessed that someone else was controlling the corpse and asked Meng Qing if he dared to come out.

Meng Qing's answer was, "I dare not."

So he simply covered his mouth, severing this strange connection.

"Let's be careful. What if someone manages to find me by following the body?"

"A low profile is what makes me last."

After closing the book, Meng Qing turned on his computer and logged into a game.

There's a game that's become very popular online recently, and many wealthy players are spending lavishly to acquire equipment and materials.

In order to save enough money for the tickets to 079 Games, but not wanting to go out, Meng Qing had no choice but to try to make some money online.

After logging into the game, Meng Qing went to a scene and started mining, following the directions in the guide. The game's graphics were incredibly realistic, almost like the real thing.

Because of its incredibly realistic graphics and character models, coupled with its hardcore, challenging, and deep RPG gameplay, this game became a sensation online in a very short time.

However, the game's popularity has also attracted a lot of questions.

Such a popular game, with no in-app purchase option and free to play, was released by a little-known company.

With millions of people online simultaneously on a single server, there was absolutely no lag. It's hard to imagine what kind of server that is.

The technological applications involved have undoubtedly surpassed the current limits of human capabilities.

This is where the problem arises.

They have innovative, cutting-edge technology, the game is free to play, and there are no in-app purchases. How do they make money?

How much does it cost to maintain such a server, and how much does it cost to develop the game?

Everyone makes games to make money, but your game not only doesn't make money, it actually loses money for players to play. What's the point?

To understand this reason, we first need to know who the developer behind this game is.

Nine-Tailed Fox Headquarters.

Several technicians jumped to their feet. "We've got it!"

"That mobile information source is in Jianghai!"

Qin Leng slammed his hand on the table as he looked at the flowing information screen in front of him. "Launch the operation immediately. This operation is to block the source of information. The target may not have a physical form, or even just a string of flowing data."

"We need to try our best to trap this flowing information in a computer that is disconnected from the internet and power. Group A is responsible for setting up the site, Group B is responsible for luring the information source to intervene, Group C is responsible for cutting off the power and the internet, and Group D is responsible for guarding the information source in Jianghai City."

Sequence 012 Lord of Flesh and Blood, stepped out from behind Qin Leng. "020 won't be caught so easily. His information flow is much faster than the speed at which you cut off the power."

The eleventh seat of the original Chaos Splitter.

Number 0 20: Computer.

He is exactly what the name suggests; he really is a computer.

He has lost all characteristics of Carbon-based Life forms, merging with machines. His consciousness can spread through networks, making him the only monster without a physical form to date.

"However, it's not necessarily true that he has no physical form at all."

"Although O2O has digitized its consciousness, it does not mean that its life form has also been digitized."

"Theoretically speaking, there is a very simple way to contain 020."

Qin Leng turned his head. "What?"

The Sequence 012 Lord of Flesh and Blood raised his head. "Find the computer with the original code of 020 engraved on it, and cut off its power. 020's data consciousness will then stop moving."

"With this, it is easy to capture 020."

Qin Leng looked at the screen, "But the exact location of the 020 computer is difficult to pinpoint unless a large-scale power outage is implemented in an area."

Just as the two were talking, a string of emoticons composed of digital information suddenly appeared on the screen in front of them.

Then the screen suddenly started flashing red, and countless exclamation marks appeared!

A researcher turned around and said, "Sir, our firewall has been breached! That stream of data has entered our database!"

Upon hearing this, Qin Leng stepped forward abruptly, only to see several words appear on the screen.

"You're looking for me?"

Qin Leng frowned upon hearing this. "Would it be convenient for us to talk? I have a computer."

Two words reappeared on the screen.

"Can."

Just then, Qin Leng's phone rang.

He picked up his phone and saw that the emoji made up of characters appeared on his screen.

"If you want to find my physical body, I can tell you where it is, and I can also let you contain my consciousness, but you have to promise me one thing."

"Help me take care of someone."
