Non-Human Seeking Re-EmploymentCh139 - The End

(Welcoming all players to enjoy the game and best wishes for clearance)

“Okay, okay, no problem…” VfobAq

With fear and trepidation, another villain boss saw Shen Dongqing off.

Shen Dongqing sighed as he turned his head to look at the Western-style castle full of the sense of age.

“Why are you sighing?” Zhou Wenyan inquired, placing his hand on his shoulder.

Shen Dongqing: “They have no sense of existence!” cojkaC

In each and every instance, the baddies were all wimps! When they heard his request, they didn’t even consider resisting him and instead promised him directly. Fancy that he imagined he’d get to flex his muscles.

Seriously; too boring.

“But…” Shen Dongqing scratched his head, “How did they find out my identity?”

Shen Dongqing had totally transformed into a human after inhabiting the body of a dying person, retaining only a portion of the power of a ghost. The NPCs couldn’t figure out his identity after entering the game and merely treated him as an ordinary player, so they dared to come over to find trouble.

But suddenly, after a dozen face-to-face meetings, he discovered that the bosses all knelt without him saying a word.

The brat, walking beside him, rolled his eyes: “Have you forgotten the ghost from before?”

Shen Dongqing: “The one with a poor IQ who wants to be Ghost King?”

The brat simply nodded. E4 dXI

Only then did Shen Dongqing realize what was going on.

He had earlier absorbed the yin energy from that ghost, and his powers had mostly been restored. It’s no surprise they were terrified. Having figured this out, he sighed faintly and became angry: “It’s a lot less fun.”

The other instance bosses were visibly shaken.

So, on this particular day, the players in each instance felt that something was awry. qgWDx0

The hideous-faced ghosts were ready to exterminate them all one second, and the next they ignored the players and strutted away; players who were caught in the monsters’ clutches and about to be devoured were about to close their eyes and wait for death, when the monsters found their consciences from some reason, threw them away in disgust, and left…

This happened in several instances at the same time, and the players who had a narrow escape were both relieved and perplexed – had the game lost it?

A massive eye was floating in mid-air in a pitch-black space. It wasn’t a human eye, but a dark circle surrounding a cold vertical pupil.

It just hung there, motionless. kDAGfN

It had previously violated the core principles by forcibly setting up a trap for Shen Dongqing and Zhou Wenyan, leading to an immense loss of energy and was now in a deep sleep.

The space resonated with a sharp tone.

The game almost believed it had overslept and hundreds of years had elapsed, but when it looked at the time, it had only been hibernating for two days. It immediately fetched the previous two days’ worth of data and checked it one by one.

It almost spit out a mouthful of old blood after reading it.

Of course, it assumed it could get rid of the two bothersome players, Shen Dongqing and Zhou Wenyan, but it unexpectedly failed once more. It not only failed, but it was also pitted by the two in return. The majority of the bosses in the instances went on strike and quit, effectively paralyzing half of the game world.

“%&￥@—” jvnzw

The game was burning with rage and let out a string of curses.

The game instances will not be regenerated. It will be tough to fix if it is closed due to damage. Whenever an instance got damaged during play, it would usually bounce around in anguish. Now that the majority of the game instances had shutdown, it is deemed lucky that it did not suffer a heart attack.

[Anomaly! Anomaly!]

[Please deal with the game anomaly immediately.] Foda1J

[If the anomaly persists for an extended period of time, the entire game world will collapse.]

A melodious mechanical female voice was heard.

The game was already jittery, but now it was even more impatient: “Got it!”

It would have been fine if there were only one or two instances, but with so many, the game had to send all of its consciousness to the instances in order to quickly fix all of them. YRWjLP

The game hesitated for a moment, then the massive eye flicked once before gently closing. Numerous light specks drifted out of the closed area, heading in every direction.

The only light in the space vanished once the last point of light left, leaving only unending darkness.

Shen Dongqing was heading along an instance’s main street, followed by a ghost bowing and scraping beside him. With four sets of arms, this ghost appeared grotesque. One hand held a half-drunk cup of milk tea, two hands held a fruit tray, and the remaining hands had munchies.

Shen Dongqing gave it a meaningful look, and without prompting, the ghost delivered the fruit tray in front of him, which can be described as considerate service. 3Qkhl6

He had just pierced a piece of watermelon and was about to bite into it when he noticed a ray of light streak across the sky, like a shooting star, leaving a long trail.

“It’s done!” Shen Dongqing finished off the watermelon in two or three bites, threw the fork back, yanked Zhou Wenyan, and ran out.

When the ghost saw Shen Dongqing leave, it immediately changed its face: “What the hell…” Before it could continue speaking, it saw Shen Dongqing running back. It thought he heard what it had just spoken and returned to settle scores with it, and it nearly fell to its knees.

Thankfully, Shen Dongqing ignored it and turned around to leave after grabbing the milk tea. tQw5qG

“Come on, hurry up!” Shen Dongqing nearly inhaled the milk tea, his cheeks bulging and his speech inarticulate as he said, “Hurry to the place where the game’s mainframe is.”

He chose a suitable location and crushed the jade gourd in his hand.

Bang—

The jade gourd shattered, and debris spilled out from between Shen Dongqing’s fingers, transforming into light spots that filled the entire sky. The light points then converged to form a semicircular door. Q8Pjh9

Shen Dongqing walked in, impatient.

He marched straight in via this door. The light became dimmer as he moved deeper. In the end, it was nothing but darkness.

Nothing could be seen, nothing could be felt.

“It’s so dark,” the brat exclaimed. OdPprY

Shen Dongqing reached into his pocket and pulled out his phone, and a beam of light shot forth, barely illuminating this corner of the space.

[Warning Warning]

[There are illegal intruders; asking the system to deal with them immediately.]

In the dark, a series of red lights lit up and kept flashing. RH9pXv

“What’s that?” The brat ignored the voice and pointed curiously at the circle in midair.

Shen Dongqing: “Trash.”

Brat: ?

Shen Dongqing: “Just smash it. It can be sorted into garbage after it’s smashed.” PB2M5i

Brat: “Are you really smashing it?”

Shen Dongqing: “If not?”

First, he had the notion of a peaceful solution and modified the game system with the controller. He didn’t expect the game to pit him, wasting the controller’s power. It would take too much effort to rebuild a controller, and he couldn’t wait that long, so he had to resort to a simpler method.

Shen Dongqing ordered the other instances to go on strike in order to force the game’s consciousness to leave the mainframe. Now that this goal was achieved, the game’s consciousness will never return as long as this eye is smashed. GrTxZ0

Zhou Wenyan only asked one question after listening to Shen Dongqing’s thoughts: “Would smashing this impact the players in the game?”

“I doubt it.” Shen Dongqing added, “I recall there being a backup system. It’s okay, just smash it. It’s not the game’s mainframe, but rather the storage place of the system consciousness.”

The entire dark space was the game’s mainframe, and the ball was only a controller. Even if the ball was smashed, the game would still exist; however, no one would be able to manage the players entering and exiting the instances.

Shen Dongqing rolled up his sleeves and said, “Let’s talk after smashing it!” bdv27M

Bang—

Shen Dongqing smacked it with his fist, and the ball poised in mid-air shook briefly before falling straight down with a loud crash.

A flash of electric light shot across the head, followed by a puff of greenish black smoke rising from the cracks in the ball, which gradually split into three parts.

[Warning Warning…] 9Fu PV

The mechanical female voice gradually weakened until being muted completely.

“It’s over?” said the brat after kicking the ball.

“Must be?” Shen Dongqing cocked his head, uncertain.

The red warning lights were all turned off, and after a while, bright lights shone one after the other in the darkness, revealing the genuine face after the darkness. MlXfBQ

“Hello, backup system No. 002 is at your service.”

In mid-air, a translucent figure materialized. It was a woman in a cheongsam, with a sweet face and a gentle voice: “How may I help you?”

The game system that was floating outside dealing with the instance bosses’ strike seemed to have sensed something and quickly stopped communicating with the instances. Countless light spots flew out of the instances, eventually condensing into a circular ball of light at the end point. It swirled in mid-air, wanting to return to that dark place, but it had lost contact with it and couldn’t find its way back.

“No! Impossible!” LZtp8F

The round ball of light roared angrily, unwilling to fail like this. The round body kept shaking and gathered power, as though preparing for a life-or-death struggle.

But, before it exploded, this bomb was engulfed by a soft force, making it impossible to attack.

“No, don’t…”

An opaque hand ripped the sky open, grabbed the ball, and took it into its grasp. The ball was defenseless and could only revolt weakly. It was caught in the darkness and swallowed up as discarded data by the new game system, leaving no trace. vzU09V

After a while, a sweet female voice rang out across the air, reaching every instance and every player.

[Hello, standby system No. 002 is at your service.]

[Verifying player identities…]

[Currently, 14234 players do not meet the standard required of players and will be sent back uniformly, while the instance clearance requirements of the remaining players will be lowered. You can return to reality via Ghost City by collecting 13 Key Fragments.] xWXdcs

[Collating game instances…]

[There are 3120 instances at the present time, including 8 S-level instances, A-level instances…damaged instances…]

[Finally…]
