The whole nation: You're put to survive on a desolate planet, you'll be running an alien b

The giant ape's mountain-like shadow loomed over the armored command vehicle.

Qin Yue closed her eyes, clenched her fists, and her nails dug deep into her palms.

All around were heart-wrenching screams; the world seemed to be slowed down at that moment.

Li Haotian simply tossed the leftover sausage skewer towards the back of the enormous creature's head in the distance.

The movements were so casual, as if they were just throwing away a piece of trash.

The bamboo skewer traced an inconspicuous arc, silently.

There was no sound of something breaking through the air, no dazzling light, and it didn't even attract anyone's attention.

"puff."

A soft sound.

It was as light as a soap bubble being popped.

Time seemed to resume its normal flow at this moment, or perhaps it fell into a deeper state of stagnation.

In mid-air, the giant ape, so ferocious as to overturn a bus and shatter the defenses of D.H.I.E.L.D., suddenly froze.

In its scarlet eyes, madness and violence vanished instantly, replaced by an extreme sense of bewilderment and emptiness.

Then, to everyone's stunned gaze, a bizarre scene unfolded.

The giant ape's enormous body did not explode or bleed; instead, it collapsed and contracted inward like a punctured balloon.

Its steel-like muscles, tough skin, and robust bones were all being drawn into an invisible point at a visible speed.

That spot is right at the back of its head.

That spot is where the bamboo skewer just pierced.

The whole process was eerily quiet.

In less than two seconds, the once arrogant LV25 projection monster vanished completely into thin air.

Only a small clump of black ash remained, like burnt-out scraps of paper, drifting slowly down from mid-air.

A thin bamboo skewer fell with a "thud" onto the cracked cement floor.

There was still a little bit of black ash on it.

The entire venue was deathly silent.

Everyone remained frozen in the same position as a second ago—some running away, some screaming, some holding up their phones to livestream… they all seemed to be under a spell.

The wind blew, stirring up the dust and the few black embers on the ground.

In the midst of this eerie silence, a massive, gold-plated announcement, covering the view of all players worldwide, suddenly appeared.

[Server-wide announcement: Congratulations to player "Anonymous" for successfully defeating the LV25 projected monster [Raging Giant Ape] in the real world, achieving the first kill on the entire server!]

[Obtain a unique legendary reward: Guild Headquarters Token (Real-world version)!]

The announcement exploded like a depth charge in the deathly silent crowd.

"Who?!"

"Anonymous? Which bastard enabled anonymity?!"

"Holy crap! What just happened? Am I seeing things? Where's the monkey?"

"That skewer... I saw it! It looks like someone threw it away!"

The crowd went crazy.

The people who were fleeing in terror just a second ago have all turned around and are now searching frantically through the crowd with bloodshot eyes.

That was the first kill in the entire server!

The first real-world kill!

Legendary reward!

Whoever gets it will rise to the top in one step!

Qin Yue did not move.

Her gaze was fixed on the bamboo skewer on the ground.

As the owner of the B-grade talent "Eye of Insight," she captured the trajectory of that instant.

A very ordinary throwing motion.

A bamboo skewer that looks like it's left over from eating a sausage.

She slowly turned her head to look in the direction the bamboo skewer had landed.

As far as the eye could see, there was an overturned sausage stand.

The stall owner, a man in his fifties, was sitting slumped on the ground, looking completely bewildered, with a few coins still clutched in his hand.

Qin Yue's breath hitched.

Is it...

"It was him! He threw it!" A streamer exclaimed as if he'd discovered something amazing, sharply pointing the camera at the sausage stand owner. "Folks! Case closed! The first killer is the sausage vendor!"

"A hidden master monk! This is definitely a real-life version of a hidden master monk!"

"Master! Please accept me as your disciple!"

Instantly, countless cameras and crowds surged toward the poor stall owner.

"No...it wasn't me..." The man waved his hands frantically, unable to speak clearly.

The chaos at the scene reached a new peak.

No one noticed that, on the verge of chaos, a figure riding a shared bicycle had silently turned around and merged into the flow of people on another street.

Li Haotian, with the last bite of grilled sausage still in his mouth, mumbled something indistinctly.

"Tsk, their teamwork is still a bit lacking."

The black cat, Xiao Hei, had reappeared on his shoulder at some point.

It was sticking out its pink tongue and elegantly licking its paws, as if it hadn't done anything at all.

"Don't be so disgusting next time," Li Haotian said to it in his mind. "The ash is all over my sausages, affecting the taste."

The little black dog made an impatient snorting sound in its throat, and its silver vertical pupils glanced at him as if to say, "You're too demanding."

Li Haotian ignored it and slowly rode his bicycle into a quiet alley.

Behind me, the noise and sirens grew increasingly distant.

A new urban legend is brewing in this city.

Meanwhile, the protagonist of the legend was disdainfully throwing the bamboo skewers he had finished eating into a roadside trash can.

……

Genting Villa No. 1.

Su Wan paced back and forth in the hall, her delicate face filled with anxiety.

She breathed a long sigh of relief when she saw Li Haotian push the door open and come in.

"Boss, you're finally back! Downtown..."

"It's nothing, the city management officers went and it's been resolved," Li Haotian replied casually, changing his shoes and walking into the living room.

Su Wan was stunned for a moment.

Urban management officers?

Just as she was about to ask further, she saw Li Haotian pull something out of his pocket.

It was a palm-sized token, its entire body a dark gold color, engraved with incomprehensible, complex patterns, emitting a faint glow.

The moment the token appeared, the air in the living room seemed to grow heavier.

【Item Name: Guild Headquarters Token (Real-world Version)】

[Quality: Legendary (Unique)]

[Effect: Allows you to designate a region in the real world (maximum area 10 square kilometers) and convert it into the holder's "absolute territory".]

[Note: Within the "Absolute Domain," the holder is the sole law. You can modify some physical constants within this region, construct energy barriers, and even project your game creations here to a limited extent.]

Current status: Not bound.

Li Haotian weighed the token in his hand, a playful smile curving his lips.

Modify physical constants?

The only law?

This thing is much more interesting than any dragon-slaying sword.

He looked out the window at the vast land of Yunding Mountain that belonged to him.

"Su Wan".

"Yes, boss." Su Wan immediately came to her senses.

"Notify Liu Hu to raise the security level at the foot of the mountain by one level again," Li Haotian said calmly. "From today onwards, I don't want a single fly to fly into my garden without my permission."

Su Wan felt a chill run down her spine. Although she didn't understand what had happened, she nodded emphatically.

"Okay, I'll take care of it right away."

Li Haotian didn't say anything more, he just played with the token in his hand.

Their gazes, however, fell upon Little Black, who was sprawled on the sofa, sharpening his claws again using the spatial rift.

A bold plan slowly took shape in his mind.
