I went berserk in the game of gods.

Chapter 53 You are the real hero
Cao Yu immediately changed into his work uniform, called Zhou Fan, and arranged a meeting place.

Upon arriving on the first floor, he encountered his second brother and sister-in-law, as well as Yang Chan, who was helping out at the front desk.

Since his identity was exposed, Yang Jian, the second brother, has renovated the boxing gym that was originally intended for ordinary people, and included players in the customer base.

For E-rank and D-rank players, learning hand-to-hand combat and weapon usage is essential.

Using items consumes too much mental energy, and not every player has them. In critical moments, a weak melee ability can be fatal.

Looking at the increasingly prosperous boxing gym, Cao Yu felt a sense of emotion... His second brother's martial arts skills were truly superb! Even though the gym was located in a non-bustling area and even though there was little advertising, it still managed to build its reputation and fame through word of mouth from its students.

Currently, quite a few E-level demi-human and sage players have signed up for the course.

And everyone who booked it felt it was great value for money.

It's likely that the boxing gym will need to move to a larger venue soon.

Cao Yu felt that if he didn't have the "Immortal Slaying Curse" to protect him, making him almost invincible in terms of physical defense, he would probably obediently follow his second brother to practice.

"Tsk tsk, Second Brother truly lives up to his reputation as the Pure Source Wondrous Dao True Lord who obeys orders but not summons," Cao Yu exclaimed.

This sentence was so clear that Yang Jian knew immediately who it was.

He suppressed his speechless feelings and looked helplessly at Cao Yu:
"Sixth brother, why are you going out so late... Wait, are you going to work the night shift?"

"I guess so," Cao Yu nodded.

“Speaking of which, you can be considered to have entered the system now.” Yang Jian suggested, “The seven of us siblings have been quite busy these past few days. When we have some free time, let’s throw you a promotion banquet.”

Cao Yu said, "No need to be so fussy..."

"No trouble at all. It has to be done." Second Sister-in-law came closer, examined Cao Yu's attire, and smiled, "Xiao Yu looks so smart and handsome in this outfit. No wonder people have come to our door today."

“They’re just friends,” Yang Chan, the receptionist, interjected.

"Hehe..." Second Sister-in-law smiled and didn't say much, but reminded Cao Yu, "I heard that the work of the Special Affairs Bureau is somewhat dangerous, Xiao Yu, remember to pay more attention to safety."

"Don't worry, Second Sister-in-law."

After exchanging a few words with the three of them, Cao Yu left.

After meeting Zhou Fan at the subway entrance, the two took the subway and quickly arrived at the Talent Community located on Shuixian Street in the East District.

On the way, Zhou Fan asked, "Brother Cao, did Director Zhao say what type of instance crisis this time?"

"After two rounds of observation, the conclusion is 'space distortion type'," Cao Yu replied. "However, we need to confirm the specifics with the personnel who remained on observation. The crisis struck yesterday, and the investigation is not progressing well. Director Zhao is also unaware of the details."

“Spatial distortion type…?” Zhou Fan was taken aback, then said, “So, the chances of 'slacking off at work' are very high this time?”

“That’s quite normal.” Cao Yu wasn’t surprised at all: “If it were a ‘monster invasion’ crisis, we wouldn’t be able to claim the credit; it would have been taken by those privileged children.”

In dungeon invasion crises, the "monster invasion" type crisis is the easiest to deal with.

Because it doesn't restrict the level of players who go to handle the crisis, nor does it restrict the use of modern firearms.

Therefore, they are all easy to solve and not very dangerous.

Unless the monster came from a C-level or B-level dungeon... this kind of situation is not something that the local special affairs bureau can easily handle.

The "space distortion type" is different. It belongs to the invasion of the copy space, which partially overlaps with the real space. The rules of the entire area are distorted, and it temporarily becomes part of the copy.

In this situation, entering the overlapping area is almost the same as entering a dungeon.

Advanced players cannot enter low-level dungeons, but low-level players can enter high-level dungeons—this is the rule of evolutionary games.

"Since the incident occurred in the East District, the special agents left to observe should be from our East District," Zhou Fan analyzed. "I wonder if they are children of the powerful and wealthy, or players from ordinary backgrounds?"

"It doesn't matter, I will take action," Cao Yu said calmly.

To him, there was no difference between the powerful and the common people.

Now that he has a powerful backer, he acts without restraint. If he encounters someone who doesn't know what's good for them, he wouldn't mind showing them what workplace bullying is all about!

During their casual conversation, the two arrived at the entrance of the talent community.

The area around the residential compound has been cordoned off with a long perimeter of police tape, and there are even armed police and military personnel patrolling nearby to prevent ordinary citizens from getting close.

Cao Yu and Zhou Fan were quickly recognized because they were wearing Special Affairs Bureau uniforms. The person in charge came over and welcomed them into the quarantine area.

The person in charge was a man with a buzz cut, a straight back, and a former soldier. He was not a gamer, but an ordinary person.

Cao Yu and Zhou Fan weren't too surprised; in special events, cooperation between the Special Affairs Bureau and the military and police was the norm.

Observing the environment, gathering intelligence... players only need to handle the crisis, while professional tasks should naturally be left to professionals.

As Cao Yu walked, he asked, "What's the situation now?" "25 minutes ago, we observed an anomaly in the environment inside the talent community. Everything was just like last night."

The man with the buzz cut quickly reported:

"Two unknown monsters appeared, attempting to break out of the Talent Community and cause chaos, but they have now been killed. After analyzing the monsters' strength data, we found that they were basically no different from the monsters that appeared last night, and were within the handling range of E-level players."

However, after killing the monster, the abnormal environment inside the community did not disappear as it had the previous night; instead, it gradually expanded. We speculate that this area has completely entered a state of rule mutation. And…”

He paused, then said in a deep voice:

"After the environmental anomaly disappeared last night, 27 residents of the community went missing. When the anomaly reappeared tonight, they...did not return, and their fate is currently unknown."

"Don't worry, we're here to handle this." Cao Yu ordered, "Expand the cordon and evacuate nearby residents. We'll investigate the area inside the residential complex. This incident will probably require entering the instance to resolve."

"Guaranteed to complete the mission!"

The man with the buzz cut saluted Cao Yu and Zhou Fan, and said in a measured tone:

"On behalf of the residents of the Talent Community who were in distress, I thank the two heroes for their rescue!"

"That's an exaggeration."

Cao Yu smiled and patted the man with the buzz cut on the shoulder, saying:
“We were just doing our job. But you, my friend, you are the real hero.”

"..."

The man with the buzz cut was somewhat flattered.

After understanding the situation.

Cao Yu and Zhou Fan crossed the innermost cordon and entered the talent community.

As soon as Cao Yu stepped inside, he felt an invisible pressure—cold, damp, and with an indescribable strange smell.

Next to the main gate, behind the guardhouse, there were two men and a woman standing guard.

The incandescent light in the guardhouse was on, and the light shining through the window illuminated the three people.

All three were wearing Secret Service uniforms, were around the same age, and were all very young.

One of the two men was shorter and had unusually long hair.

The other man was tall and muscular.

The woman had wheat-colored skin, a beautiful face, and a curvaceous figure that was accentuated by her uniform.

Their conversation reached the ears of Cao Yu and Zhou Fan.

“Song Qiao, you should know how dangerous this place is, right? If I, as the captain, were to order you and your brother to go deep inside to investigate…” the long-haired man chuckled, “In-depth investigation is different from killing monsters. It’s hard to say whether you’ll come back alive.”

"Damn it...! Sis, don't listen to him! At worst, it's just another dungeon run! What's there to be afraid of when players run dungeons?" the muscular man said angrily.

"You all saw the monster just now," the long-haired man sneered. "This dungeon that invaded might be a supernatural one. Don't exaggerate too much. When do players go into a dungeon without being fully prepared?"

"..."

The woman known as "Song Qiao" frowned and remained silent.

Suddenly, her gaze turned towards the gate, where she saw Cao Yu and Zhou Fan walking towards them.

The long-haired man also saw it, went up to greet it, and said with a smile:
"You two are here for the handover, right? We'll leave things here to you."

Having said that, his gaze returned to Song Qiao, and he reminded her:
"My patience is running out, Song Qiao, you should make a decision..."

*Slap!* Cao Yu slapped the long-haired man across the face.

The force, exceeding that of a normal E-level immortal player, sent the long-haired man flying, crashing into the wall of the guardhouse. A bloody tooth flew out and landed on the ground.

After beating the man, Cao Yu's gaze fell on Song Qiao and the muscular man:

"Did you kill the monsters that appeared earlier?"

The muscular man was already stunned.

Song Qiao forced herself to calm down and replied, "Yes."

Cao Yu said directly, "Tell me the characteristics of the monster."
