I am a full-level celestial master, you let me enter the strange talk of rules?

The car was driving on the highway, and the scenery outside the window was so monotonous it was suffocating.

The dark gray fog churned endlessly, visibility was extremely low, and occasionally one could see withered trees and weeds flashing by on the roadside.

More often than not, there is only thick fog outside the window, as if the whole world is soaked in some kind of viscous liquid.

Occasionally, a crimson light would flash through the mist.

Those were eyes hidden deep in the fog, belonging to some kind of terrifying, eerie creature, staring intently at the moving car.

Some of them lurked by the roadside, while others appeared and disappeared on distant hillsides, as if waiting for something or monitoring something.

In this bizarrely ruled world, there may be humanoid and non-humanoid bizarre beings.

There is also struggle and slaughter in the bizarre world, even more ruthless than in the human world.

Because many of these strange and powerful beings are solely driven by the desire to devour and kill, they are born from chaos, governed by rules, and devoid of emotion or ties, possessing only instinct.

Occasionally, you can see some corpses by the roadside.

Some were humanoid, others were non-humanoid, scattered in the wilderness. Some had weathered away, while others were still slowly wriggling, seemingly not quite dead yet.

The eerie consciousness watched all this through the car window, feeling nothing. In this strange world, death was the norm.

The car was driving aimlessly on the highway, and nobody knew where it was going.

The eerie consciousness understood that only a headless driver could get the car to the right place.

The headless drivers, similar to the mindless monsters in the previous area, are the "game-changers".

If I can't find the headless driver, I might be stuck on this road for the rest of my life and never reach that city.

Deep within his consciousness, Zhang Yangqing had been observing all along.

He repeatedly wanted to speak up and warn the strange consciousness, but he held back each time.

He wanted to see if this strange consciousness, which he had "cultivated" himself, had any potential for growth.

From Zhang Yangqing's perspective, he could see the key to breaking the deadlock at a glance.

This level is indeed much harder than the previous one.

Why does the world of supernatural tales make the chosen one go through a trial? Why was the character Wuxin Weiwei introduced?

In fact, Wuxin Weiqi has already given a lot of hints.

Zhang Yangqing wasn't bragging; getting through this hurdle wasn't exactly difficult, but it wasn't easy either.

Do you remember what Wuxin said in a strange way?

It said that while it was in the car, it suddenly became sleepy, and when it woke up, it found that its heart was gone, but it was still alive.

This shows what?
This indicates that there is a special passenger on this vehicle.

This passenger can silently remove other people's organs, and the person whose organs are taken will not die.

This is the key.

Now, the driver in this car has a head.

He smokes, has no eyes, but still has a head.

Many chosen ones might think: Would cutting off the driver's head and turning him into a "headless driver" solve the problem?
But after trying it, you'll find that if you cut it down, the driver dies.

The car overturned, people died, the mission failed, and it might even cause more serious consequences.

Because the chosen ones cannot "remove vital organs and not die".

They don't have the ability, nor can they trigger the necessary conditions.

Only that special passenger on the train can do this.

Only he could take the driver's head while keeping the driver alive and able to continue driving. This is the key to the mystery and all the clues given in the previous level.

This was also the key point that Zhang Yangqing analyzed at a glance.

But Zhang Yangqing was able to analyze these things not only because of his strong judgment and rich experience, but also because he knew how to connect seemingly unrelated information to form a complete logical chain.

The eerie consciousness lacks these experiences.

It may not be the smartest, but it has another special quality: it is powerful and willing to try and fail.

Others might die for making a mistake, but this person might not.

Zhang Yangqing wanted it to run into more obstacles.

After experiencing many setbacks and suffering losses, it will learn how to avoid suffering losses.

Perhaps every "elder" views their juniors in this way.

The elders clearly know everything, but they don't say it directly.

It's not that we can't share our thoughts, but rather that younger generations need to think for themselves and gain experience.

I can tell you this time, but what about next time? What about later? What about when I'm not around?

In Zhang Yangqing's view, my "alt account" still needs your help to cultivate, or even to "idle".

You'd better use your brain, or you'll ruin my account too.

Just as Zhang Yangqing was pondering, the strange consciousness was already planning to take the initiative.

This car is strange. After it starts, the faces on the four tires begin to distort and emit a miserable, silent wail.

With each rotation, the expressions changed in turn: fear, pain, despair, madness, repeating endlessly, making one uneasy.

If it were any other chosen one, or an ordinary human, just hearing these silent screams and seeing these distorted expressions would be unbearably distressing, even affecting their judgment and observation, and increasing their negative state.

But the eerie consciousness itself is eerie, and it doesn't matter.

It turned its head, looked at the mouthless, eerie creature beside it, and asked in a low voice, "Have you ever ridden in a car like this?"

The mouthless creature shook its head strangely, then raised its hand and gestured in sign language: "I came here by myself."

The eerie consciousness nodded and continued, "That heartless guy said we need to find a way to determine if there's a conductor on this bus. I'm going to check on the driver and the guy in the second row. You keep an eye on things for me."

The mouthless creature nodded strangely, indicating that it understood.

When viewers outside the giant screen in China saw this, the live chat instantly went wild:

This weird entity seems to have gone mad, hasn't it? Normally, during the game, the NPCs you encounter can't help you, and might even be a hindrance. This mouthless monster doesn't seem very smart either, so what help could it possibly offer?

I feel that if Zhang Tianshi were playing by himself, he would have already cleared the game. Why is this strange consciousness so stupid? It clearly has a max-level account, yet it's struggling so much.

That's not quite right. The learning ability of this strange consciousness is quite strong. Don't forget it's only been around for a short time; it's already quite impressive that it's achieved this much. Let's all be patient and understanding.

I envy the weird consciousness. It can play with a max-level account right after it's born. If I had that kind of treatment, I could do it too!
Hey upstairs, if you're so good, why don't you try it yourself? If I really gave you a max-level account, you probably wouldn't even be able to get out of the safe house.

The comments were polarized, with some supporting the idea and others expressing disdain.

In the world of ghost stories, the eerie consciousness is unaware of all this; it acts according to its own will.

After all, you can't rely on experts for everything.

It has to show its usefulness, otherwise, the expert will "delete" it in no time.

The eerie consciousness stood up and walked to the driver's side.

The driver, still smoking, drove with a blank expression.

The eerie consciousness spoke, asking, "Master, where is this train? How much longer until we reach our destination?" (End of Chapter)
