After the system notification sounded, Emperor Qin’s gaze at Mo Yang was filled with venom. He wished he could shred the person in front of him to pieces and leave no trace. However, the system notification seemed to be a turning point. When the notification disappeared, the previously closed auction house doors were finally opened by a high-energy laser, and the lighting inside the auction hall was restored at the same moment.
At this moment, Ouyang Qi had almost completed the assembly of his Annihilation Cannon, missing only one final component. However, as he was about to install this component with excitement and a sense of revenge, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his back. When he realized what had happened, he had been violently kicked to the ground. At the same time, the semi-finished Annihilation Cannon was now in the hands of Ouyang Yang, who was wearing a bio-armor.
“Ouyang Yang!”
Ouyang Qi’s eyes were filled with anger. He absolutely despised his cousin, who had always been more talented and favored by their family. If it weren’t for this cousin, wouldn’t everything in the Ouyang family belong to him? But it was Ouyang Yang who always appeared in front of him and took away everything he wanted.
For Ouyang Qi, infiltrating and controlling the Dream World was a simple matter. As long as he could take away everything from Ouyang Yang, or even kill him, he was willing to pay any price.
Unfortunately, their carefully planned scheme, along with Bai Linger’s, had failed because of the sudden appearance of the person holding Proverbs. They had originally intended to kill most of the elites inside the auction hall or force them to sign contracts with the leaders while they were weakened.
However, only a small number of elites were killed at the beginning, and the rest were hiding under their protective shields. The deaths of those few were not enough to destabilize the upper echelons of the Capital Star. They also couldn’t use their deaths to disrupt the peaceful lives on the Capital Star.
Ouyang Qi’s face turned dark, and Bai Linger’s beautiful face was pale. They had lost.
Not only had they lost, but they were now exposed under the control of the Capital Star’s authorities. If they were captured at this moment, they would undoubtedly face the harshest interrogation and possibly be used as experimental subjects. They had no way to escape, and neither living nor dying was an option.
Bai Linger looked at Feng Yu, who was beside her, with a pitiable and timid expression. “Feng Yu, can you help me, considering that we’ve known each other since childhood? This isn’t something I wanted to do; I’ve been controlled by someone. Please, Feng Yu, save me. I’m willing to do anything if you help me.”
The beauty trap was a tactic often used by Bai Linger, but unfortunately, Feng Yu looked at her pretty face without any interest. “No, who knows how many times you’ve been willing to do anything for how many people. Besides, we both know each other, and you’ve even called me a computer-obsessed playboy, right? I have no interest in saving you. If it were my adorable Black Dog pleading like this in front of me, I’d be willing to fight the whole world for him.”
“He really knows how to appeal to me~”
Bai Linger was furious, knowing that pleading with Feng Yu was useless. She reached into her pocket, but her actions were quickly discovered by Feng Yu. He used a tough rope to tie her securely, and Ouyang Qi was also caught by Ouyang Yang.
With this, the conspiracy in the Dark Star Hotel auction event finally came to an end.
Bai Linger and Ouyang Qi were captured, and Emperor Qin was forced to surrender due to suspicion of being their accomplice. This made it impossible for Emperor Qin to carry out his plan to attack and seize Proverbs from Mo Yang. He raised his hand in anger, and, with the terrifying power of Qing Nu, Little Hou, and himself, they smashed through the window of the auction hall and leaped out.
As he left, Emperor Qin stared at Mo Yang with a vengeful look. He would remember this incident and seek revenge in the future.
Mo Yang, in response to Emperor Qin’s hateful gaze, confidently raised a middle finger at him. Since they were already at odds, there was nothing to fear. It was time to fight and kill if necessary. He had no intention of backing down and might even reverse his name!
Meanwhile, Harris and Fei Ying had also heard Emperor Qin’s orders, but they had no way to escape.
Harris’s current health was down to only twenty points, and his consciousness was in chaos. Feeling the sensation of being slowly dissected and having his organs touched and studied was something that no normal person could bear. Even someone as tough and strong-nerved as Song Kefeng broke into a cold sweat after narrowly escaping. Not to mention Harris, who had a bit of fragility beneath his imposing stature.
When Wan Mei calmly told him that he had myocardial hypertrophy and needed to watch his fat intake, he couldn’t take it anymore. His body stiffened, and his health points instantly dropped to zero, resulting in his in-game death. This was the first time Harris had died in the game, and the punishment for dying was experiencing the same scene and sensations again. It took him a month to recover from the trauma.
When he finally regained his composure and could re-enter the game without tension, he had already been kicked out of Emperor Qin’s core group. However, the foreign giant considered himself fortunate. Leaving aside everything else, he was relieved that he would never encounter that terrifying figure in the white coat again. He was willing to lead a laid-back life in the Dream World, occasionally picking on newbies.

All of his moves were easily countered by Song Kefeng. Techniques that could usually knock people down with a single kick were child’s play in Song Kefeng’s eyes. He felt that his attacks left openings everywhere when facing the enemy. In just five moves, he lost all opportunities to resist.
What was even more humiliating for Fei Ying was that Song Kefeng had multiple chances to finish him with a single strike and send him out of the game. However, it was as if Song Kefeng was toying with him, deliberately tormenting him.
Instead of delivering a killing blow, Song Kefeng made each strike inflict intense pain. Fei Ying watched helplessly as his life points slowly dwindled, and the real pain transmitted through his nerves finally made him unable to bear it, causing him to scream out in anger and terror. He felt that Song Kefeng was a demon who was killing him ruthlessly.
It wasn’t until the very end when Fei Ying was beaten to death by Song Kefeng, that Song Kefeng, looking into Fei Ying’s horrifying eyes, finally caught his breath and said coldly, “Death is a terrifying thing, isn’t it? Remember this feeling because life isn’t just a game.”
The remaining time in the game was calm. Emperor Qin and his group were wanted throughout the city, and they had no way of re-entering the heavily guarded Dark Star Hotel to commit murders.
Because they had helped Ouyang Yang and his group, Mo Yang and his companions received a generous reward from the grateful elites they had saved, totaling one billion star coins. With this, they didn’t need to participate in the final combat competition that evening, and they could all clear the game with an S and three A ratings.
When the clock struck midnight, the Bloody Monopoly game finally came to an end.
A total of seven people successfully completed the game. Mo Yang wasn’t surprised to see the names of Emperor Qin, Qing Nu, and Little Hou among them. Although they were wanted, the amount of star coins they received from Bai Linger was more than enough. Consequently, the lowest rating for this game was surprisingly an A.
During the brief minutes they waited for the game ratings, Mo Yang suddenly heard the voice of 006 in his ear. He raised an eyebrow as this situation had never occurred before. In the game world, the guides should be unable to interfere directly. At most, they could give instructions to the game system, which would then display them as text in the players’ vision. However, now he was hearing 006’s voice, and it seemed urgent.
[Listen carefully in this emergency situation.]
[Some damn host triggered the “Subverter” alert. The Mother Star is scanning for potentially dangerous thoughts throughout the entire universe. We guides can’t control this scan, and once someone is suspected, they’ll be mentally executed.]
[Because if you guys die, 009 and I will be in big trouble. So, a reminder for you. Keep your thoughts in check and avoid any unnecessary ideas. I’ll give you more details later.]
[Lastly, that host from 110 is highly likely to be detected and executed. If you can save him, do it. If not, let it go. Even his death can help reduce our suspicion.]
006 rapidly conveyed these words in Mo Yang’s mind, and then the voice disappeared. Mo Yang’s heart was in turmoil. He looked at Wan Mei, who seemed to understand what he wanted to convey, and he nodded.
Mo Yang took a deep breath and grabbed Song Kefeng’s arm.
Song Kefeng’s body jolted, and he looked on guard. “What are you doing?!”
Mo Yang rolled his eyes impatiently and quickly wrote down the key points he had heard on a piece of paper. He was concerned that it might not be safe to speak at this moment. Otherwise, 006 wouldn’t have spoken so quickly and then vanished.
Song Kefeng and Zhou Api stared at the written words on the paper, their faces changing dramatically. They were at a loss for words for a moment. Mo Yang burned the paper with the written words. Then he said, “From now on, focus your thoughts on all the benefits of the Dream World. If you can’t think of any, think about what you want to achieve with the power of the Dream World. Keep thinking, and don’t stop. This is your own thoughts and mentality; I can’t help you control it. Only you can save yourselves.”
“Moreover, if you can’t even control your own mind, don’t even think about grand aspirations.” Mo Yang fixed Song Kefeng with a cold look. “This war has been a battle of the mind from the beginning.”
Song Kefeng clenched his fists and took a deep breath.
At this point, the game ratings had been completed, and the rewards were about to be delivered. They were about to leave the game world.
There was no extra time for Mo Yang and his group to prepare their emotions or clear their minds. In the next moment, their figures disappeared, and they returned to the Dream World.
The moment they stood in front of the headquarters in the Dream World, Mo Yang felt an invisible force, like ripples, pass through him, especially through his brain. He immediately understood that this was a scan, and he couldn’t help but smirk.
“Oh, have my iceberry fruits ripened? I can sell one for 50 Dream Coins!”
“Tsk tsk, I’ll catch some fish later, and I’ll be on the rich list in no time.”
“Hehehe, this game was a huge success. The Proverbs is like a custom-made weapon for me! If the legendary Grand President were still alive, we’d have so much in common.”
“Tsk tsk, 006, how lucky am I to have met you and entered the Dream World? You are my savior, changing my mediocre and miserable life!”
Concluding his performance, Mo Yang even sang emotionally, “I love the Dream World!!”
006 stared at his host’s dramatic performance in astonishment. It was utterly dumbfounded. Then it felt nauseated, thinking, ‘How shameless!! How disgraceful!! Hypocrite!!’ Who was the one who initially refused to enter the Dream World, delaying it for five days, nearly driving it to despair?
Who was the one who constantly doubted the Dream World and had never had a positive relationship with it?
Who kept causing trouble, always plotting to destroy the Dream World, and even creating cosmic energy and thought shields? If it weren’t for these bloody facts still fresh in its memory, it might have actually believed its host’s smiling face, filled with gratitude!
006 was in the middle of ranting about its host’s hypocrisy when it received an unexpected message of praise from the Mother Star. Its entire spherical form froze.
Nobody could know.
It had gone for at least a few hundred years without receiving any praise from the Mother Star. The messages it usually received were disgust, reprimand, or warnings not to cause trouble.
Now, it was being praised because of its host, who was probably still the Subverter?!
006: It couldn’t be less delighted.
Mo Yang easily passed the mental examination. Wan Mei did the same. However, compared to Mo Yang’s enthusiastic and almost self-believing performance, Wan Mei was straightforward in thinking about various unknown animals, plants, and knowledge that could be found in the Dream World. He genuinely hoped the Dream World would last a bit longer because, once it disappeared, acquiring various knowledge beyond human exploration in the universe would be nearly impossible.
So, he passed the mental examination easily.
Zhou Api also passed it effortlessly, thinking about all the various cards in the Dream World that would allow him to stay invisible and uncover big news in the real world. Those were valuable items! Zhou Api grew more excited as he thought about it and couldn’t wait to play more games and make money. He subconsciously kept himself from thinking about anything else, and he passed.
After all, the universal examination in the Dream World couldn’t be too long or detailed, as it consumed a lot of energy.
Song Kefeng had a somewhat difficult time.
When he returned to the Dream World, 110 appeared nervously in front of him. Song Kefeng had mixed feelings about 110. Regardless, 110’s failure to report him voluntarily surprised him. He glanced at 110 and began to think about the benefits of the Dream World with all his might.
However, it wasn’t easy.
His mind went completely blank.
Song Kefeng genuinely believed that the Dream World had no benefits whatsoever. He saw it as a massive and malevolent invader that needed to be eradicated. Controlling his malice toward the Dream World was already difficult for him, and now he was expected to think about its benefits?
Song Kefeng also felt that faint scanning sensation and 110’s blinking light grew more urgent, warning him of the impending danger. Sweat formed on his forehead as he struggled to clear his mind.
The benefits of the Dream World? The benefits of the Dream World?!
“Invisibility Cloak Card!! With this card, I can eavesdrop on conversations of criminals! I’ll crack major cases for sure!”
“Lightning Card is good; I can quickly rush to the crime scene and apprehend suspects.”
“Shapeshifter Card is also great; it will work well as an undercover agent.”
“Mining is good too! It can help me build my strength, so I can take on a hundred opponents.”
Song Kefeng mechanically listed the benefits of the Dream World, and he had no idea how much time had passed before 110 weakly said: [Okay, please shut up. You’re the worst host I’ve ever had to deal with.]
The Mother Star’s feedback to 110 suggested that its host had a problem with intelligence and recommended finding a more astute host to control.
110: Lost for words.
Author’s Note –
006: Life is like a play, and it depends on acting skills. The Mother Star must have no idea what it missed out on.
009: The Mother Star thinks my host is intelligent and has potential. It must have no idea what it overlooked.
110: This is so frustrating.
🤣 The Mother Star’s feedback is hilarious.
Ah, I love this. The contrast between comedy and serious threat and adventure is just wonderful 💕
Great balance~
