Clang—
The long whip in his hand fell with a loud noise, and Gu Weizhou collapsed onto the floor of the room.
This feeling was different from the purely physical torture of losing a limb but was real mental torture. It amplified the pain nerves a hundredfold and brutally crushed his consciousness.
In less than a moment, Gu Weizhou collapsed onto the ground as he had just been pulled out of the water. He was so limp that he could only lie on the ground and his vision was completely blurred.
He bit his lips tightly, not allowing himself to make any sound. After a moment, a dark trace slipped out of his tightly clenched lips and teeth.
However, even in this miserable state, when he thought of what he had just done, Gu Weizhou laughed hysterically like a scheming merchant who got his rewards for his schemes, drooling and bleeding all over his mouth.
He knew it would be like this, he knew it would think that this masochist enjoyed it, he knew it would not react in time, hahaha–!
After nearly half a minute, Gu Weizhou tremblingly grabbed the long whip handle that had fallen to the ground.
He tremblingly pressed a tiny, inconspicuous button on the handle, and the whip, which had only been a sex toy a moment ago, suddenly sprouted countless spikes almost a centimeter long, shining with a cold light.
Without any hesitation, Gu Weizhou lifted his hand and tightly squeezed the whip handle in his palm. Instantly, countless dark bloody lines flowed out of his palm, and his almost immobilized body finally had a moment of relief.
This is something he learned through countless reincarnations. Extreme physical pain can briefly offset the complete inability to move caused by mental torture. Although it was only a few seconds of brief relief, it was enough to awaken his almost completely numb body.
Struggling to crawl up from the ground, clutching the edge of the bedsheet, Gu Weizhou left one bloody handprint after another on the white sheet, creating a scene of white and red intermingling, like a terrifying scene from a horror movie.
As he leaned half of his body on the edge of the bed, he saw the man lying on the bed with a pale face and closed eyes, his life or death uncertain. Following this sight, a very eerie smile appeared on his face.
The moment it noticed this smile, it immediately became alert.
『Warning, warning, do not harm the mission target, do not harm the mission target, otherwise the mission will be restarted, otherwise…』
The mechanical voice abruptly stopped, and the lingering pain that Gu Weizhou felt also vanished.
However, with this sudden relief, Gu Weizhou lost even the most basic curiosity, and his entire vision and mind were filled with the man lying on the bed, whose life or death was uncertain.
He just wanted to kill him!
Today, he not only wanted to disable this scum but also wanted to cut him up with his own hands.
As a bloody piece of spikes was embedded in the flesh of his palm, Gu Weizhou pulled it out, and a few drops of blood splattered in the air as he did so.
Clutching the whip handle tightly, Gu Weizhou’s face was filled with madness as he swung it towards the man lying on the bed with an uncertain fate.
Since it was a never-ending cycle, why should I die again for you scumbags? Why should I compromise and please you scumbags? Since I cannot leave and cannot completely control myself, then I will find its loopholes, torture and abuse you until the day of your final death. As long as I am alive, none of you can live happily.

However, at this moment of unprecedented harmony, a shocking cry suddenly pierced the tranquility at the security operations console, followed by a trembling, sobbing tone.
“Qing… Director Qing Feng!!!”
It was Qing Feng’s turn to be on duty this weekend, and she walked slowly to the operations console with her long legs, her high-cold queen demeanor transformed into an elegant and poised one. She disdainfully pointed her slender index finger at the screen and said, “Look at you, just the collapse of the small world has scared you like this.”
As her words fell, her gaze slowly moved to the screen in front of her, and she saw the picture on it in an instant.
“Oh my God!!!”
…
In the blink of an eye, when Gu Weizhou opened his eyes again, he felt the scenery in front of him change, and he found himself in a very peculiar and spacious space.
Number 001, who hurriedly rushed over after receiving the headquarters’ notification to shut down the BUG system, couldn’t help but tremble when it saw Gu Weizhou, who was covered in blood. Perhaps this matter couldn’t be explained by just being tricked a little bit.
This whole thing needs to be explained starting from a few days ago. As the manager of the Ring Universe, Jinjiang is responsible for overseeing the derivatives and order of the entire Ring Universe, and in the process of managing it, a lot of new technological products such as systems are used extensively.
The Ring Universe is constantly progressing to ensure that the system and the worlds are not disconnected and can be handed over smoothly. Therefore, at fixed intervals, the manager of Jinjiang will conduct a comprehensive system upgrade and also check for system vulnerabilities and bugs.
During the routine check that had been safe for millions of years, a major bug was discovered this time.
The power outage in the engineering department happened slightly early during the last upgrade, and a system running too slowly was only upgraded to 99.99% and did not complete the upgrade due to the power outage, which led to system disorder and the appearance of a system loophole.
This system, called the “Scum Shou reversal system,” was only a punishment system made up of data code, but more importantly, because of its loophole, an innocent person has been trapped in small worlds.
While repairing the bug overnight, the headquarters held an emergency meeting and selected a system with the highest task completion rate among the currently idle systems, and issued the highest order, requiring it to use a professional and peace-loving mentality to talk to the person calmly about this matter and ultimately solve all subsequent problems.
And as the number 001, who has never received a grade lower than A in a series of fairy tales such as One Thousand and One Nights, Andersen’s Fairy Tales, Grimm’s Fairy Tales, and Aesop’s Fables, was dispatched.
And now…
Gulp–
Anxious, number 001 made a big gulping sound and felt like he had walked into the wrong set and would be retrieved by the headquarters any minute now.
Taking his gaze off the person in front of him, as a veteran driver who has received countless A grades in (fairy tale) small worlds, number 001 deeply understands the importance of overpowering the opponent’s momentum in negotiations. So, using its usual high-level tone, it said,
[Hello, I am Jinjiang System Number 001. How can I help you?”]
[…]
Not far away, Gu Weizhou lowered his eyes, and the constantly seeping blood in his hand formed a small puddle under his feet, looking terrifying.
As the blood on the ground continued to flow and the person still remained silent, Number 001, who had been holding back, had to grit his teeth and help repair the person’s injuries first.
It had a feeling that if this continued, the person would be the first to die.
Suddenly, a light flashed by, and the person who was looking like he just crawled out of the blood sea immediately returned to his normal appearance.
Seeing the person’s handsome appearance, 001 was stunned. Just now, it thought that the person covered in blood was a murderous maniac who had been tortured into a state of paranoia and would attack anyone who came near. It didn’t expect that the person’s appearance would be comparable to that of a prince in a fairy tale.
In its previous worlds, people who looked good were always simple and easy to talk to (compared to the results of Snow White, Sleeping Beauty, Cinderella, and other fairy tales), so after quickly coaxing the person over, it could go back and officially start his retirement life of sunshine, beaches, poetry, and distant lands.
However, before 001 could even speak, a soft and faint laughter sounded from nearby, and a sentence mixed with an unknown murmur echoed in the air as the person looked up.
“You’re here to atone for it,” a simple and short statement.
[No…no, I’m not,] 001 who was caught in one sentence, almost subconsciously wanted to deny it.
“Then why did you help me repair my injuries?”
[I was just afraid you would die.]
“Even if I die, it can resurrect me again.”
[The bug has been fixed and it has been recalled. You can’t…] The voice suddenly stopped.
The person hooked his lips dangerously, “You’re really involved with it.”
Number 001, …actually fell for a trap.
Although Number 001 has never been to any world outside of fairy tales, it understands one thing: whoever is in the wrong should submit.
In the current situation, it is clear that the problem lies with the Jinjiang side, so the direct order given to it by headquarters is to satisfy the other party.
This means as long as the other party doesn’t make any excessive demands, it must obey the other party.
Number 001, who was only one day away from retiring and had already prepared its swimming trunks and little boat in private, was not expecting to be given such a task by headquarters on its last day.
At this moment, It just wants to find a reason to deceive the other party and get through the situation so that it can go back and start its retirement life.
However, after just a few sentences, the other party had almost trapped it and made it spill everything.
“What compensation do you plan to give me?”
Number 001 did not immediately answer this question, because based on the short confrontation just now, the other party is clearly not someone who is easy to deal with. If it admits that they are wrong, what if the other party demands the destruction of the world?
It should be noted that it has a spotless resume and is aiming to receive triple the retirement bonus. It doesn’t want everything to be ruined because of this incident.
It should deny it!
However, when Number 001 was about to speak, it suddenly stopped upon noticing the pair of eyes that were almost completely covered by darkness not far away.
Um… as a responsible system with strong moral compassion, it would be best to first understand what this person has gone through before deciding to admit or deny.
A string of unreadable data rapidly flew from the other person’s body to No. 001’s receiver, and after roughly understanding what had happened over the years, No. 001 just wanted to slap itself in the face.
Who the fuck asked you to be curious and look at this stuff!
[Um… I’m very sorry. How would you like to solve this matter?] Number 001 asked sincerely.
Upon hearing this, Gu Weizhou grinned and said, “Destroy all those worlds.”
As expected, he wants to destroy the world…
[As a system, I cannot help you kill people, besides that, I can do anything for you. How about that?] 001 said sincerely.
“In fact… I was just joking with you,” replied Gu Weizhou.
001 once again felt like he was being tricked.
Although he really wanted to destroy those worlds, it seemed that Gu Weizhou was more concerned about other things, such as:
“What is it? What are you? What is your relationship? Why me? Why does the world keep looping?”
[Hello, host, I am System 001, directly under the jurisdiction of the Jinjiang Ring Universe Plane. Like me, it is also a system, but it is a code punishment system. Due to incomplete upgrading, it has a system loophole, which randomly selected you from billions of small worlds. Similarly, it is also because of a system loophole that…]
Sympathetically looking at him it continued, [The world has been constantly looping.]
“So, in fact, I am just the unlucky guy who won the lottery from among billions of worlds.”
Number 001 thought to itself, [That’s right, that’s how it is.]
Those Ring system people aren’t too smart are they…? I mean, if you have systems that are so powerful, shouldn’t they, like, do a test run after an update before they send it out into the big wide world and let it do its job?
Thank you for the chapter!
You have a point but I think they did have a test run but as they previously stated, after the upgrade it was stuck in 99.99 as the power went out before it could reach its completion. So, it became a system bug.
Bit why not test it after the upgrade? Then the fact it’s only 99.99% finished bc of the outage would’ve been noticed. Maybe I missed something but it looks like a huge oversight to not do so when power goes out during update etc. Irresponsible organization. Poor mc but we benefit
Thank you for the chapter. 😘
As I once read in a fantasy book, “the world is high-tech, and only 3 out of 5 cubicles still work in a public toilet.” Something never changes, mistakes cannot be avoided, but they can be minimized
Thank you very much for the translation 💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝
Tysmm for the update srsly enjoying it keke moreover our MC is not weak AT ALL
Who doesn’t love strong,dependent n revenge full mc huahauahajah
GG MC is completely blackened 💀
Just from that one (or 2?) chapters alone, I can already guess that our MC had gone through hell and probably even beyond, more than I could imagine…
And all for what, just because he was unlucky??!! Who could accept that! I would probably also want to destroy those worlds, heck, PERSONALLY DESTROY THEM 😭😭
