The male supporting character was actually myself.

The executors under the church's rule are like rusty kitchen knives; they're sharp enough to cut fingers, but they can't cut anything else..."

Li Moran chuckled at his analogy and nodded in agreement, saying, "What you said makes a lot of sense. I was indeed worrying pointlessly. Instead of worrying every day about the strange things in the abyss making a comeback, we should build a solid foundation among the people and let them know the truth!"

[Congratulations, host, on successfully rewriting the main storyline of the unfinished mission world. Completion rate: 50%. Please continue your efforts to further enrich and improve the mission world, allowing it to enter a state of free development.]

The main system suddenly issued a reminder.

Jiang Chen raised an eyebrow, thinking that the plan had been initially successful. After transmigrating, he had done his best to correct the protagonist's selfless dedication. At least now he was no longer going to hide behind the scenes, take the blame, and burn himself out!

The next step is to expand the timeline and add as much detail as possible.

Transform this seemingly exquisite and gorgeous mission world, which only has half an outline, into a more three-dimensional and complete one!

“I recorded the process of you eliminating and purifying the supernatural beings. When we get back, I’ll create a website for it. I’ll upload the video and then record a science video that explains everything from the classification of supernatural beings to the seductive methods of evil gods. This will not only let people know the truth but also prevent them from being seduced and corrupted by evil gods at the source.”

After Li Moran finished purifying the piles of rotten flesh, leaving only some black marks on the ground, Jiang Chen told him about his plan.

Li Moran thought about it carefully and felt that what the child said made a lot of sense, so he nodded and replied, "It's possible, but I might not be used to narrating in front of the camera. Don't laugh at me if the footage doesn't turn out well..."

"The church shouldn't bother us anymore, let's go back first." Jiang Chen took out a teleportation scroll and smiled slightly at the church headquarters not far away. "Let them clean up the mess, we have more important things to do."

Chapter Fifteen: Suspected Bug

Since the little white cat was stationed inside the church without requiring any items or extra energy, Jiang Chen stopped paying attention to it.

As soon as he got back to the Dragon Bone City Hotel, he busied himself editing the video from the recording device. With its vivid colors, strong contrasts, built-in filters, and high-energy background music, even though Li Moran only appeared for half a minute, the editing, combined with multiple angles and slow-motion shots, made it a truly exhilarating watch.

Back when Jiang Chen went to kill the bandits to prepare for his next publicity stunt, Rongtuanzi used her "talented skills" to help build a website.

You can trend on social media simply by posting a message, and you don't have to worry about being hacked or having your internet cut off.

Once he finished editing, he immediately uploaded the video to his website and released a preview that the Hero of the Monument would personally explain the origins of the newly eliminated anomaly and the untold stories from the abyss.

"This world is normal? Oh yes, yes, yes! Whatever the church says is right!"

"Secrets the Church Dares Not Mention Revealed!"

"For the first time in a century, the monumental heroes have been shown on camera, answering questions and resolving doubts!"

"The trial at the Church Headquarters Square: A first-person perspective on what true heroism is!"

"The human world is in grave danger, yet the church is acting as an accomplice and concealing the truth!"

"The abyss is a blade hanging over humanity's head, and we have been blinded for so many years..."

...............

In an effort to salvage its reputation, the church scapegoated Huo Mingyao and others. To whitewash their actions, they deliberately publicized the trial proceedings, only to discover a scandal involving corruption and depravity. The executors present clearly performed poorly, leading to a massive online uproar, with many radical elements within the church seizing the opportunity to fuel the flames.

The bishop looked at the overwhelming news reports, his face so gloomy it could drip water.

"You should have acted then! Instead of letting Li Moran jump out and make his presence known again." He suppressed the anger in his eyes and looked at the Holy Son who was still slowly flipping through ancient books at the desk with an unfriendly gaze. "You could have easily subdued just an S-level freshman weirdo!"

The Holy Son was shrouded in a faint holy light, making it impossible to see his true face.

Bathed in holy light was Zhang's fair and handsome face. He slightly raised his head from the ancient book, his violet pupils shining brightly. He blinked his long eyelashes, shook his head, and said softly, "I can't. Don't forget that I just opened a passage for you ten days ago. It will take me at least half a month to recover my strength, so I am powerless to help you in that situation except to run away."

However, I also have doubts about His Excellency's abilities.

Your main task is to discover, guide, and train the executors. This time, your insistence on judging and expelling the Monument Heroes not only caused trouble involving church thugs, but also resulted in many executors fleeing in front of so many people and a live broadcast, unable to even deal with a single S-class newbie monster.

How can such combat power restrain the Abyss?

"Before the Pope returns, Your Excellency should think carefully about how to remedy the situation."

"I...it's all that priest's fault!" the bishop cursed angrily. "If he hadn't boasted about how powerful firearms were, saying things like one could take on ten and even junior executors could become gods...I shouldn't have listened to his nonsense!"

The Holy Son continued to bury himself in his books, but muttered a sneer, "Ha, hopefully the Archbishop still has time to make amends, otherwise..."

He only uttered half a sentence, and the voice that came out after being enveloped in holy light was so distinctive that it was hard to remember its specific features, but the sarcasm was very strong.

The angry archbishop turned and went back to his office.

The fluffy ball was completely confused and couldn't understand what they were talking about, but it wasn't worried at all. After all, it had recorded everything, and when it showed it to its host, he would definitely understand!

"Hey, you're quite handsome, Holy Son." It perched on the Holy Son's shoulder, peering closer to get a better look at his true appearance.

Unexpectedly, the Holy Son seemed to sense something, his handsome face turning slightly to the side with a furrowed brow. "Strange...why do I suddenly have the feeling of being spied on?"

He closed his eyes and sensed the area; none of the restrictions in the room showed any signs of being touched.

"Could it be Li Moran?" If anyone in the world could project their divine sense without triggering any restrictions, the Holy Son believed that only Li Moran could do it.

But given that guy's personality, he shouldn't be so rude.

Moreover, Li Moran shouldn't have awakened any superpowers in this area after not seeing him for so many years, otherwise the church would have received the news immediately.

"This is really strange..." The Holy Son frowned slightly, finding the matter suspicious;

The little white cat, startled, bristled and hopped to the side. "Holy crap! You can sense that? Meow meow, are you some kind of bug?"

After thinking about it, it realized that the bishop was obviously the problem more from the conversation. The suspected bug was just reading a book and not making any moves, so it went to monitor the bishop first, and then took out a calling magic stone to send a few messages to its host.

"Is the Holy Son a bug?"

After reading the message and the recorded clip sent by the little white cat, Jiang Chen frowned slightly.

The original owner was just a minor office worker, whose role was similar to that of the various leaders in the church as commonly understood.

The Pope is in charge of all affairs in the country; the archbishop is in charge of the internal affairs of the church in each province; the Son of God is merely a symbolic figurehead with no real power.

However, judging from the conversation between the bishop and the Son, they seem to be more than they appear.

The archbishop is in charge of the executor's role and thus holds military power.

The Holy Son is suspected of possessing spatial abilities, which is why he said he opened some passage for the Archbishop. He is definitely not just a mascot; his function is even as important as military power. Otherwise, he would not speak to the other party in this manner.

Where did the Pope go? What part of the affairs is he in charge of?

The priest appears to be in charge of research and development; the firearms were his creation.

"It seems there wasn't this setting before..." Jiang Chen pondered for a moment, guessing that after he changed the protagonist's character setting, it brought some kind of aftershock to this unfinished mission world.

The main system initially constructed the mission world based on a half-finished outline, with a simple storyline and only half complete, resulting in a rudimentary world structure and relationships. Now, the protagonist's life trajectory has changed, which is like a wildfire igniting the relationships and clues of other major characters, causing them to develop in a more logical direction along with the original background setting.

As for the white cat's claim that the Holy Son might be a bug, I can try to investigate that when I have time.

After all, in the original owner's memory, that mysterious mascot rarely appeared in public. Every time it appeared, it was shrouded in a ball of holy light, and only a vague outline could be seen. Its voice was processed so that it was difficult to tell whether it was male or female, and the owner could not remember any characteristics at all.

Each character's storyline is starting to unfold, and now, with Huo Mingyao being corrupted, a strange lord from the abyss has been drawn out. It seems this mission world is getting more and more interesting!

"Ladies and gentlemen, all my fellow friends watching on the screen, I am Li Moran, a hero of the Monument."

When Li Moran introduced herself in front of the camera for the first time, she was so nervous that her legs went weak and her palms sweated slightly.

Even when I first went to the front lines to eliminate the supernatural beings and encountered so many storms, I never trembled like this!

Jiang Chen poked his head out from behind the camera and waved his hand, indicating, "Stop for a moment."

We're making a science program. You only need to appear for a minute or two to say an opening remark. The rest of the explanation will just be audio. Don't be so nervous, okay?

You're radiating murderous aura; it's making my back sweat. Relax, be gentle, and show that approachable, kind, and compassionate side of a legendary hero!

Chapter Sixteen: The Origin of the Abyss

"Is it okay if I don't show my face?" Li Moran's lips twitched, and he asked cautiously with a hint of uncertainty. Then, seeing the little boy's slightly furrowed brows, clearly disagreeing, he shrugged and said helplessly, "Alright then, I'll try again."

Jiang Chen patiently guided him, "If you feel really nervous, we can start by filming the parts where you don't show your face, which you're best at."

Let's pretend there are no cameras and it's just a simple science lesson for me, talking about the abyss and bizarre things from the Dark Ages, including the Angry Messus that corrupted Huo Mingyao. These are things that even I don't know, so the general public would naturally know even less.

Anyway, the content can all be edited; you just need to explain, and I'll take care of the rest.

"In that case... let me talk about the Abyss first."

Ignoring the running camera, Li Moran looked at the child's kind face, and his tense expression finally eased a lot. He began to recall the past in a low voice.

The abyss is just an adjective; what that place is actually called is unknown to humankind.

Because that place was never originally part of this world.

Although Li Moran was only twelve years old at the time, he can still clearly remember the strange phenomena that occurred before the abyss appeared.

An indescribable roar came from the originally gloomy and foggy sky, as if some enormous thing was approaching. Then the temperature rose rapidly and warmed up, and the entire sky turned fiery red as if the clouds were on fire.

Then the earth began to rumble and tremble, but it was not an earthquake and did not cause any damage at the time.

The tremors and roaring sounds lasted for two days, and just when everyone was feeling uneasy, everything suddenly and completely disappeared.

The authorities detected that the epicenter of the anomaly was located in a desolate, uninhabited area in the far north, so they dispatched an advance force to investigate. Li Moran remembers that back then, television stations broadcast live, but the small, dilapidated orphanage didn't have a television set, so he would run to the gatekeeper's booth at the factory next door and peek through the glass.

That was the first time he saw the abyss.

Dark and abrupt, the desert, which should have been vast and boundless when viewed from above, looked as if a terrifying wound had been torn open.

As the main force gradually approached, something seemed to be awakening in the abyss where the thick fog rolled in. Various detection instruments beeped and blared, and before people could react, many terrifying and bizarre things emerged from the abyss!

Later, Li Moran learned that those were all low-level monsters, lackeys of various high-level monsters, specifically tasked with absorbing more power for their masters.

This was clearly a war of plunder, and at the time, humanity had no idea what the abyss meant.

The final shot shows a colossal creature slowly emerging, then transforming into a gate, through which numerous eerie beings surge in…

Years later, when Li Moran personally killed the A-level monster with teleportation abilities, he felt a sense of revenge.

It is precisely because of its teleportation that so many strange phenomena can spread throughout the world in an instant!

The images on the television abruptly stopped, leaving Li Moran wanting more. However, the ground shook violently, causing him to lose his balance and fall to the ground. The orphanage collapsed instantly, and the factory not far away shook, cracked, and caught fire.

The noise of things being destroyed mingled with people's cries and screams, and the whole world was thrown into chaos in an instant...

Sensing the threat posed by the abyss, capable nations launched devastating military strikes against it.

The dropping of nuclear bombs into the abyss clearly had a significant effect, halting the bizarre activity. A stalemate ensued, but the first wave of anomalies had already caused irreparable damage to the human world.

Then the air and soil changed rapidly, and many people died suddenly because they could not withstand the impact of the magical aura.

More and more never-before-seen plants grew at an extremely fast rate. After persistent research, scientists finally discovered a magic potion that could improve human physique and unleash superpower potential when the entire human world was in danger.

The appearance of the abyss shocked humanity's original worldview, but it also gave rise to many heroes who stepped forward to continue the flame of humanity.

Li Moran is one of them.

Two years later, the super-powered enforcers, who had undergone emergency training, launched their first proactive exploration of the Abyss.
