After resolving the mall incident, the police led by Ji Zhuo collected the eight sets of remains for forensic examination.

The man in the paper clothes followed along; as a family member of the deceased, he certainly had that right.

Furthermore, during the subsequent investigation, the police also discovered the bodies that had disappeared after the mall opened; most of them had been buried in the walls, which explained why no one had been able to find them.

However, this probably wasn't done by that fat boss. It's likely that anyone trapped in the inner world and unable to get out will eventually have their original body enter the wall after a certain period of time and gradually be assimilated.

In the end, they discovered the body of the person who deserved to die the most.

The fat boss.

His body was now as if all the fat had been sucked out, his obese and bloated body had turned into a dried corpse, his body parts were torn apart, and his expression was extremely desperate. It was unknown what he saw before he died.

If Xiang Yu wasn't mistaken, the place he escaped into looked like a safety exit, but it was actually just a trick by the ghost.

That place was probably similar to a shopping mall, with quite a few little devils. He was probably dismembered and then desperately kicked around like a football.

It's really tragic, but not pitiful.

An Ling fainted on the spot after everything was over. Although her breathing was steady and her vital signs were normal, she could not be woken up no matter how much she was called.

Xiang Yu guessed that this was a sign of mental exhaustion. He had asked a few more questions while in a flow state before passing out, which was roughly the same state.

However, just to be on the safe side, the group still took Anling to the hospital and had her lie there so that if anything unexpected happened, the rescue could be done more promptly.

After everything was over, Xiang Yu sat on a stool by the hospital bed, leaning against the wall and dozing off as a caregiver.

He's been mentally exhausted these past few days, so he makes sure to take a nap whenever he can.

"..."

An Ling was also sleeping soundly in bed, and the ward was very quiet for a while.

[Beep beep, beep beep.]

The system emitted a sound.

Of course, only Xiang Yu could hear this sound. He opened one eye, yawned, and clicked on the words "Agree to Communication".

Hello, Xiangyu, how's work going?

【…】

Xiang Yu didn't answer, but just stared silently at the system panel. Although the other person's face wasn't displayed on it, he knew from the voice that the other person was the masked man who had tricked him before.

【Oh dear, why are you so quiet? Are you dissatisfied with the job we offered?】

Xiang Yu laughed angrily: "You think I'd be satisfied with this forced sale for no reason?"

[But now you've gained extraordinary power, and you'll grow stronger with each mission you complete. Isn't that a reward?]

"But the enemies are all skilled in their own right. If you accidentally die at their hands, what use are these things?" Xiang Yu said, crossing his legs.

You're right, but opportunity always comes with danger, and I believe in your abilities; these dangers are nothing to you.

"Including such a grand mission as destroying the world?"

[Of course, this is just a small challenge for you.]

"Stop talking nonsense. What's your purpose in contacting me? You can't just be here to congratulate me on taking down a few monsters, can you?"

Haha, that's not it. Actually, what I wanted to inform you about was...

The difficulty of this task has increased slightly.

"What do you mean? Isn't destroying the world difficult enough?"

Well, no matter how difficult destroying the world is, it's just a PvE level. Our system has already paved the way for you; as long as you follow the system's guidance, you'll eventually reach your goal.

[However, we've received word that many players from the Main God Space will be arriving in this world. Besides dealing with that world, you'll also need to handle them as well.]

"What?"

Xiang Yu was taken aback.

Main God Space?

Doesn't that mean that players using the infinite flow method are coming?

Wait...aren't I an infinite flow player too?

"Wait a minute, he's not with us? I'm a player in the God Realm, right?"

[It's different. We are the Universal End-of-Life Care Company, dedicated to providing end-of-life care services worldwide.]

[However, players of the Infinite Flow genre are different. They prefer to treat each world as a game, completing tasks in the Main God Space within each world, with the ultimate goal of simply increasing their own strength.]

"...Still can't tell the difference? Are you and the Main God Space mortal enemies?"

Of course not. Many missions in the Main God Space aim to save the world, while our mission is to destroy it.

"Isn't that their arch-enemy?"

They are like doctors diagnosing and treating the world, while we are euthanizing it. How can doctors and palliative care be considered opposites?

[We simply knew this world was beyond saving, and we did this to avoid causing further suffering to its inhabitants, and to prevent the culprit that destroyed the world from absorbing it and gaining even greater power.]

"Are you so certain that this world is beyond saving?"

[Heh, of course not. Or rather, when the level of calamity exceeds the level of the world itself, saving the world would be a losing proposition.]

[The people from the Main God Space probably only sent a bunch of E-level players, at most D-level, who are completely incapable of saving this world... They will only add to its suffering in the process.]

"...I understand. So you mean that now, besides the monsters of this world, I also have a bunch of humans with strange abilities as enemies?"

Yes, but you can pretend to be someone from the Main God Space; their system can't directly see through your identity.

You can sow discord and make them fight among themselves; after all, that group isn't very united.

"This is so much like Werewolf..." Xiang Yu thought this situation was absurd. "Do they have any way of knowing we exist?"

Generally speaking, they wouldn't know.

"In other words, there are special circumstances." Xiang Yu usually assumes the worst in what the other person says.

In short, you need to solve the strange events, thwart the players' plans, and then, according to the system's mission, destroy this world. Isn't that simple?

"Simple my ass." Xiang Yu was about to say something more when he saw the other party hurriedly hang up the call.

"...Sigh, I was already busy enough, and now I have a bunch of enemies to contend with," Xiang Yu sighed. "It's hard to say whether it's fighting humans or fighting ghosts."

However, he looked at the system panel. Now that he had ten points, he had to take advantage of this opportunity to quickly improve his combat power.

At that moment, another pop-up window appeared in the system.
