"Oh!"

The moment the silver bullet was fired.

The swastika symbol engraved on the gun suddenly lit up.

It accurately hits a person's hand joint, blowing them into pieces.

Yes, I hit it!

Eriri clenched her little fists, her face beaming with excitement.

"Well done, little golden retriever!"

Shi Yu shouted, while simultaneously pulling out a walnut-sized, round object from her storage space, "Catch this, use it in a critical moment!"

The grenade's casing is made of sandalwood.

The surface is covered with Sanskrit inscriptions.

Embedded in the center is a pale yellow relic, emanating a faint sacred aura.

【Item Name: High Monk's Relic Hand Grenade】

[Type: Throwing Weapon/Purification]

[Quality: Rare]

【Special Effect 1: Blessed by Buddha's Light】: After the explosion, a golden Buddha's light with a diameter of five meters is released, dealing massive purification damage to the cursed meme for three seconds.

[Special Effect 2: Suppressing Evil: The remnants of the relic after the explosion can forcibly suppress the curse energy within a ten-meter radius for five minutes.]

[Note: Made from the core of relics of eminent monks in an ancient temple, it has an absolute restraining effect on curses of malevolent nature.]

【Exchange Price: 200 points/1 token】

"!"

Eriri hurriedly took it, afraid that it would explode in her palm.

Meanwhile, Kuriyama Mirai had already summoned two blood-red blades.

The bright red blade stood out starkly in the darkness.

She wasn't used to guns; she preferred a blood-stained knife.

Chi!

The girl's petite figure moved about like a ghost.

The blood-red blade slashed precisely at the base of the pale white hand.

The severed hand quickly turned into black smoke and dissipated after hitting the ground.

Her blood blade possesses anti-magic properties, but unfortunately, there are simply too many people involved.

Just as one batch was cleared away, new ones began to pour out from the holes in the ceiling.

They even started climbing up the walls, closing in from all sides.

"This is not the way to go!"

Yukino's breathing became rapid.

The ice shield had shattered three times already. Although she had potions to replenish her magic, the depletion of her mental energy still caused beads of sweat to appear on her forehead.

Like the damp hair Bai Yu encountered, the pale white hand also possesses extremely strong regenerative abilities.

Without finding the core, it will always be difficult to eliminate it.

"Then throw grenades! Blast it until it exposes its core!"

Kasumigaoka Utaha decisively pulled out a grenade, aimed, and threw it at the hole in the ceiling: "I've always felt something was off there; it's probably the source of this thing!"

"call out......"

The grenade arced through the air and exploded the instant it touched the pale white hand.

Boom!

Golden light suddenly burst forth, illuminating the entire office like a small sun.

The pale white hand, shrouded in Buddha's light, emitted a piercing hiss and instantly turned into black ash.

The axeman seized the opportunity and swung his stone axe fiercely at the hole, striking a tiny, pale hand that was huddled in the ceiling.

next moment.

Countless pale white hands, as if a machine had crashed, instantly turned into black smoke and dissipated.

[Successfully defeated the Cursed Meme Vengeful Hand (group). Participants Kasumigaoka Utaha, Yukinoshita Yukino, Kuriyama Mirai, and Sawamura Eriri will be awarded points based on their individual performance: 1800, 1500, 800, and 300 respectively.]

Two newcomers have passed the newcomer trial and have been rewarded with the items "Guardian Cloud" and "Guardian White Fox".

"Ah! I only have 300 points!"

Eriri bit her thin lips, somewhat unwilling.

But upon reflection, I realized that as a newbie, I was already doing quite well to have earned any points.

the other side.

Bai Yu's battle is also coming to an end.

Her black hair had clung together into seven or eight knots as thick as an arm, attacking in turn like venomous snakes.

But he always managed to dodge them with his unpredictable movements.

Bai Yu's right hand gradually gathered pale purple lightning, which he then unleashed a frenzied bombardment on Fa Chao: "Exploding Lightning Arrow!"

Boo hoo hoo...

A barrage of lightning bolts roared out, striking the black hair and exploding in blinding flashes of electricity, causing the hair to stagger backward.

"Get out of the way, Shuiyue!"

Taking advantage of this gap, Bai Yu changed his footwork and activated the Seven Nights Assassination Technique, his figure nimbly weaving through the gaps in his black hair.

Like the moon reflected in water, she brought her footwork to its fullest potential.

The ripple breathing technique operates at high speed within the body.

The boundless life energy, like the blazing sun, makes countless black hairs avoid it.

The Extreme Realm is now open!

"Flow, unlocking the brain!"

It is difficult to distinguish the core of the dampness with the naked eye.

Having opened two realms in a row, Bai Yu's eyesight reached its limit in an instant.

His eyes were sharp as an eagle's, searching for anything unusual in the surging black tide.

Soon, they noticed a particularly thin black line hidden among the hair in the crack of the door.

That was precisely the core weakness of the Black Tide monster.

"Iai Slash!"

Bai Yu roared, his right hand clenching into a fist, and an invisible blade aura instantly materialized.

"Silver Ripple Sprints!"

With his brain unlocked, he can have 100% control over his body.

All the ripple energy was instantly poured into the blade's energy.

All of a sudden.

The entire office was as bright as if ten suns were shining in the sky.

The boiling life energy made the room as bright as day.

"cut!"

The dazzling golden light merged into a single point, then transformed into a long dragon soaring into the sky with unparalleled power.

It slashed towards the crack in the door with a sharp, piercing sound.

Chi!

The moment the rippled blade energy severed the black line, he clearly heard a silent shriek.

The tangled black hair began to twist and fall out wildly.

With an invisible groan, all the black hair instantly lost its vitality.

They scattered like withered vines, turning to ash upon contact with the ground.

Player "Baiyu" successfully defeated "Cursed Meme Vengeance," earning 3500 points.

The battle is over.

The dark office was once again illuminated by bright lights.

The light bulb, which had already exploded, remained perfectly intact.

Bai Yu walked in front of the television.

The screen has already been restored to brightness.

The disc was still spinning quietly in the projector.

Click, click...

The screen suddenly started to freeze and display glitches, and it took more than ten seconds to return to normal.

Shibata Katsumi's haggard figure reappeared on camera:

"On the 41st, the five members of the Kitahara family, who lived in the city, suddenly and without warning hanged themselves in their home."

"On the 47th, the mortician responsible for preparing the remains of the Kitahara family died at the funeral home. The cause of death was cardiac arrest. The next day, his family members suddenly disappeared."

"Four days ago, on April 16, a well-known novelist named Koharu Nishikido committed suicide by jumping from the 7th floor after brutally killing his wife and children."

"I can't let innocent people suffer anymore. I need to find out everything."

After saying that, he got up, walked to the camera, and turned off the camera.

The CD content has now finished playing.

[It has been detected that all players have collectively watched the disc sent by Shibata Katsumi using the office projector within 30 minutes, completing the second stage objective. Each player is awarded 3000 points.]

The main quest has been triggered.

[Main Quest Description: Find Kitahara Ryo, Kitahara Koyo, Nishikido Kiyoshi, and Shibata Katsumi in Mizuhara City. Ensure at least one of them survives within 24 hours. Do not leave Mizuhara City during this period.]

[Task Reward 1: Earn any number of points based on your performance in the task]

[Mission Reward 2: Obtain any weapon ranging from Excellent to Perfect grade, and a lottery ticket for items, based on your performance in the mission.]

[Task Time Limit: 24 hours]

[Mission Time Penalty: Annihilation]

As the cold, ruthless electronic voice of the main god announced the end, the expressions of Bai Yu and the other four became solemn.

"There's only one day left, the time is too tight."

Yukino frowned and tried to put the disc into her storage ring, but it failed.

"Since we can't put this disc into our storage ring, there are generally two possibilities: one, the item itself has an owner, and the ownership relationship is clear... two, the item itself has something unusual about it."

Kasumigaoka Utaha realized what was happening, "Wait...you mean...?"

Yukino nodded and said, "That's right. Considering that Shibata Katsu has already sent out the CD, which conceptually transfers ownership of the item, I tend to favor the second possibility."

"That means the disc itself is faulty, and may have become the medium for the curse mentioned in the video."

"Assuming the content in the video is true and credible, Shibata Katsumi said that things tainted by the curse, as well as people killed by the curse, will become new mediums."

The fact that the CD had become a medium meant that Shibata Katsumi had become tainted by the curse, which is why he disappeared.

This mission requires us to protect four people 24 hours a day. Besides Shibata Katsumi, who is already missing... the remaining three, judging from their names, should be relatives of the deceased Kitahara family and Nishikido Koharu family.

"Therefore, we must hurry and split up to find the other three people first."
