Abyss God! I Bet Your Gun Has No Bullets!

"Yan Shuangying? Boss, how about adding me as a friend?"

Seeing that this youthful-looking boss seemed easy to talk to, the An City Director puffed out his chest and introduced himself.

"I'm the director of the An City branch of the Abnormal Affairs Bureau. My ID is Hungry Fist#6969, a third-batch Closed Beta Player, currently level 27."

"Boss, let's do an Instance together sometime!"

The boorish martial artist's enthusiasm left Wu Wang a bit overwhelmed by the flattery. He hadn't expected to meet someone so eager to get familiar so quickly.

Xiezhi also stepped forward.

"Xiezhi#110110. Thank you again for your help in dealing with this calamity. I will record and report this matter truthfully. You will be a valued friend of the Abnormal Affairs Bureau."

Clearly, it wanted to be added as a friend too.

Otherwise, there would have been no need to state its nickname and ID number.

Unless players matched in the same Instance and could add friends face-to-face, you needed to know both the nickname and the ID number to add someone.

You two just met me and you're already blurting out all your info. What am I supposed to say in return?

Wu Wang suddenly realized something very important. He couldn't add them as friends.

A player's game ID could not be changed. If he were to add the An City Director right now, the name that would show up would be Pending Death.

They were all calling him "Boss." But what would happen once they added him and saw he was only Level 6?

Wouldn't that be awkward?

His only option was to bluff his way through for now.

"Sorry, it's not convenient for me to add…"

【Vision of Truth (Passive): Has Fused and Evolved】

【&%@# Is Contacting You Through the Spirit Calamity】

【It sees Your World clearly once again】

【Account Anomaly! Account Anomaly!】

【Attempting to repair... Repairing... Repair failed... Second attempt... Repair fa*%#&&*&#%】

【Account restored to normal】

Wu Wang hadn't even finished speaking.

The Abyss God's strange, delirious whispers suddenly echoed in his ears, and his face turned pale as he began to tremble.

The Red Vertical Pupil on the inside of his wrist started to become more refined. Its original appearance, which resembled a child's stick-figure drawing, gradually gained more detail.

The corners of the eye were now sketched with the curved arc of a phoenix eye, elevating its artistry from a child's scribble to something a middle schooler might copy from the internet.

It had evolved again!

Wu Wang remembered that after finishing Fight Back to School, 【Vision of Truth】 had seemed to fuse and evolve once before.

Although no new effects had appeared after that evolution, he could clearly feel that the Red Vertical Pupil was causing trouble much more frequently.

He recalled the beginning of the 【Chronicle of the Desolate Village】 Instance. He'd declared he was going to strangle the Yin Fate Saintess, only to discover it was his Second Sister in an awkward moment. Back then, the Red Vertical Pupil had even been able to blink mockingly at him.

And now, after who-knows-what kind of fusion and evolution…

It was becoming more and more active!

"What… is this? Abyss God, are you planning to evolve into a parasyte?"

Wu Wang was stunned to discover something. His personal panel had changed.

Originally, the panel was just simple black text on a yellow background, with a texture like the parchment of the Declaration of Independence.

Now, a bizarre red thread had appeared on this parchment, twisting around the paper as if it was about to stain it with some strange pattern.

And in the top-left corner of the panel, a new option had appeared.

【Switch Account】

Wu Wang stared. "Huh?"

No way, dude! Abyss God, you actually created an account?

With an extremely unnatural expression, Wu Wang clicked the 【Switch Account】 option.

【Player#00000】

【Level: ???】

【Please enter your nickname】

He was numb. Wu Wang was completely numb.

Spirit Calamity Game, what the hell did you fix? Is this really not a bug?

He had a strange premonition, as if the Red Vertical Pupil on his body was gradually developing an independent consciousness, rather than being a simple mark.

Today, it dared to create a smurf account. Tomorrow, it would dare to steal his main account.

Who knew what would happen after this thing fused and evolved a few more times? Was it going to steal his account and take his place?

But his path was set in stone. He had to keep playing Spirit Calamity and clearing Instances. There was no other way.

As he continued to speedrun Instances and grow stronger, the Abyss God's Mark would certainly be well-fed. Its fusion and evolution would only accelerate.

The uncertainty would grow ever stronger.

He suddenly felt as if someone was holding a gun to his head. Every step Wu Wang took forward was a gamble that the other party's gun wouldn't go off and kill him.

After figuring this out…

A crazed grin spread across Wu Wang's face.

"Abyss God! I bet your gun has no bullets!"

An unknown danger, a supreme existence.

So what?

Isn't it just a life? I'll give it to you!

The one thing I don't lack is lives!

He then skillfully entered the account nickname.

【Player Nickname: Yan Shuangying#00000】

Abyss God! Let me borrow your account for a couple of days!

"Boss? Boss? What's wrong?"

The An City Director and Xiezhi looked at Wu Wang in confusion.

Why had he started convulsing mid-sentence? It was as frightening as an epileptic seizure.

If they didn't know he was the ruthless man who had taken down the Yin Fate Great God without a scratch, the An City Director would have probably called for an ambulance.

"Oh, it's nothing. I just thought of something happy and got a little excited." Wu Wang came back to his senses. "Let's continue. What was your name… Fister, right?"

The An City Director froze. "?"

No way, Boss! Did you really just shake with excitement? And what's with my name? There's no way a name like that would get past the censors!

He wouldn't rest until he said something shocking.

Although Wu Wang's words were enough to make their brains crash, his hands were still quick to enter both of their IDs and numbers to add them as friends.

The An City Director didn't even have time to object. He suddenly received a friend request.

When he saw the name 【Yan Shuangying】…

He finally breathed a sigh of relief. So the guy was just kidding. He did remember his ID after all.

They say the stronger someone is, the weirder their temper. All masters have their quirks, and seeing it today proved it was true!

This boss's wicked sense of humor was really something else.

"Haha, you love to joke. I didn't expect you to be level 30… huh? Holy shit!"

The An City Director had been about to praise his level, assuming he had to be at least level 30.

But to his surprise, three large question marks were hanging there instead.

A question mark rose in his own mind as well.

Holy shit! What is this? How can someone's level be a question mark?

Xiezhi also wore a shocked expression and exchanged a glance with the An City Director. This young boss was truly no simple character.

In all their years as players, they had never seen such a bizarre situation.

It was true that items from Instances could hide one's level, but that only worked on strangers.

How could someone hide their level on their friends list? Wasn't that equivalent to modifying the game system itself?

"We've added each other as friends, and we've slain the Yin Fate Great God," Wu Wang said, lowering his voice. "We can pretty much be considered comrades-in-arms who have shared a classroom and a battlefield. Now, let's talk about some adult topics."

Hearing this, Xiezhi's expression became slightly unnatural.

The An City Director's expression, on the other hand, lit up.

Shared a classroom, carried guns… what comes next? Naturally, it's whoring together!

I didn't expect the boss to be so down-to-earth! That's right, no matter how powerful a player is, they're still human. They're bound to have some needs.

"Sure, sure. Why don't we head back to the city first so I can make the arrangements?" the An City Director said with a smile. "What kind of adult topics did you want to discuss, Boss?"

"Have you guys watched the latest ‘Youth Great Study'?" Wu Wang asked, his expression unchanging.

The An City Director was speechless. "?"

Xiezhi was just as confused. "?"

No way, man! This is what you call an adult topic? Do you really think you're a college student who just came of age?!

Seeing their priceless expressions, Wu Wang chuckled and patted the director's shoulder.

"Just kidding. I wanted to ask what batch of Closed Beta Players we're on now. I haven't had contact with the outside world for a while due to special circumstances. I hope you two can understand."

If he was going to put on an act, he had to be as profound and unfathomable as possible! He had to package himself in the image of a reclusive master!

When the director had introduced himself, Wu Wang had clearly heard the phrase "third-batch Closed Beta Player."

Wu Wang planned to pry some information out of these two Abnormal Affairs Bureau directors.

He wanted information that high-level players like them would take for granted, but that a low-level player like himself should have no access to.

For instance, details about the Spirit Calamity Game itself that couldn't be found in the app.
