New Castoffs

"The evidence is conclusive."

Qin Yiguan calmed himself down and made a move to leap down from the tree and into the house!

It was at this time.

A luxurious aircraft slowly descended.

Lu Zun, dressed in a gray Zhongshan suit, slowly stepped out of the aircraft. As if he had some kind of sixth sense, he instantly looked into the trees where Qin Yiguan was hiding.

The boy felt that Lu Zun's gaze was also a kind of 'projectile,' sharp as a sword, capable of piercing through everything.

Qin Yiguan was startled.

With a 96% Fusion Rate, they're still not to be trifled with!

I logged off immediately!

Lu Zun looked puzzled and shook his head slightly.

He entered the room, saw the bloodstains on the floor, frowned, and looked under the carpet, making no move to call for help.

Call!

Qin Yiguan woke up and immediately sat up.

His eyes gleamed in the darkness.

The maid died in the same way as He Hongyuan, and the murderer's methods were just as he had guessed.

None of that matters.

The important question is: is Jiu Zhengxuan's true nature, or is he being manipulated by Lu Zun?

If this is his nature, he will surely die.

If he were controlled by Lu Zun, that would be understandable, but he stole my business, so he must die.

As for Lu Zun...

There must be some shady conspiracy at play, but he gives off an aura of power and invincibility, making him someone you can't confront head-on.

Thinking about this...

The boy looked out the window, his eyes slightly narrowed.

Although the curtains are thick, it must already be getting light.

It was at this time.

A commotion was coming from downstairs.

First came the sound of an aircraft landing, then a shout, "Let me go! Where am I? I don't want to stay here!"

The boy frowned; why did that voice sound so familiar?

He put on his clothes, then went downstairs and opened the door.

In the distance, beneath a dilapidated wall, between two piles of trash, a figure crouched, looking timid and filled with terror.

Tears and snot streamed down his face; he was terrified. He kept repeating, "Let me go! Where am I? Don't leave me here... I'm a teacher..."

The boy's body trembled violently.

The two mechanical puppets beside him said, "Your brain was damaged in the Metaverse. You are now delirious and no longer a normal person. Rust City is the only place you can survive from now on."

Qin Yiguan's eyes widened, and his arms began to tremble slightly.

The man was wearing a blue suit, but the collar was torn, the white shirt underneath was stained, and he was only wearing one shoe. He squatted there, covering his head with his hands, his body trembling violently.

Qin Yiguan could see that his eyes were filled with confusion and fear, and his gaze was unfocused, unable to concentrate on any single point.

His stomach rumbled, and suddenly he saw a crushed and smelly energy block in the trash can. He reached out his hand, and his once white palm was now covered in grime, with bloodstains under his fingernails, as if from struggling.

He grabbed the energy block and stuffed it directly into his mouth.

Before he could bite into the energy cube, a hand grabbed his wrist.

He turned around in horror.

A boy dressed in black was squatting beside him, his eyes filled with tears.

The boy's voice trembled, "Teacher Qing, how did you become like this?"

"Clear..."

"Teacher?"

The man's eyes were glazed over as he tried hard to remember, "Yes! I'm a teacher..."

As he spoke, he tried to break free from Qin Yiguan's grasp and stuff the foul-smelling energy block into his mouth.

His wrist was gripped tightly by Qin Yiguan.

At this moment, the [Conscience-Free Syndrome] had vanished without a trace, and tears streamed down the boy's face.

"Hey, I was talking about that kid."

"You're a resident of Rust City No. 03, aren't you?"

Qin Yiguan turned around and saw a voice coming from one of the mechanical puppets, "This guy will be living in the rust from now on, just like you. Let me see what his name is..."

The operator behind the mechanical puppet seemed to be flipping through some documents, but after only a moment, he said impatiently, "Forget it, his name is something like 'Wooden Stuff,' it's not important anyway, he's already mentally challenged. Just give that kid any name you like."

Qin Yiguan's expression changed, and his brows gradually furrowed.

In Rust City, new residents are frequently brought in by mechanical golems; these people are both lucky and unlucky.

Fortunately, they suffered severe damage within the Metaverse, but their physical bodies did not die; instead, their brains were injured.

Their condition is monitored in real time by the Nutrient Pod, and they will be removed from the Nutrient Pod if their balance is insufficient to pay for data usage.

The Metaverse Government dispatched mechanical puppets to transport them to the nearby Rust City.

And that began the unfortunate second half of their lives.

Qin Yiguan's mentally challenged neighbor, the ' Superman ' who always did handstands.

That's exactly what he was like.

Qin Yiguan stared at Teacher Qing's tattered suit and the bloodstains on his fingers, and said in a low voice, "Were you very rough in transporting him?"

"Rude?"

"Maybe a little!"

"After all, he's not honest!"

"He's an Castoffs and a fool, why should we care about his feelings?"

The two mechanical puppets joked, "This Rust City looks so gloomy and decadent, the air probably stinks. I don't want to stay here for another second! And this idiot, he'd be better off dead in his Nutrient Pod! He's wasting our time!"

Qin Yiguan was grinding his teeth so hard they were audible.

I could no longer tolerate it.

Suddenly standing up, disregarding the fact that they were in reality, he punched the mechanical puppet's head.

Boom!

With a loud bang, the mechanical puppet's alloy neck snapped, and its head flew more than ten meters away like a ball!

The boy was Wrath.

He lifted another mechanical puppet with his Big Head, and with a loud thud, it crashed into the soil, half of its body embedded in the ground. Its mechanical legs kicked a few times before it went out completely.

Within 3 seconds.

Two mechanical puppets, each weighing 200 kilograms, were rendered unusable.

The boy looked at his palm, wondering where he got such strength from.

In a daze, the image of the ' Boundless One ' flashed through my mind.

He slowly turned around.

I saw Teacher Qing crouching in the corner, her eyes filled with terror, tears welling up in her eyes.

This moment.

Qin Yiguan thought of the classroom.

Teacher Qing, dressed in a sharp suit, was handsome and dashing.

He was arrogant and disrespectful to everyone.

His class, called 'Exploration Class,' was the only class that students didn't dislike. It was full of novel and interesting knowledge, with a wide range of topics that always immersed students in fascinating stories.

Teacher Qing was humorous and insightful. Many girls fantasized that after class, he would transform into a chivalrous knight-errant, righting wrongs and settling scores in the Experimental Zone.

Qin Yiguan squatted down, quietly looking at his Teacher Qing, feeling extremely heartbroken.

Teacher Qing's body kept shrinking towards the corner of the wall.

"Teacher Qing, do you still remember me?"

"I am your student, my Qin Yiguan."
