Chapter 736: [552] I Choose to Steamroll the Bizarre Cthulhu World (Seeking Monthly Tickets and Subscriptions)_1

[Congratulations, you have successfully leveled up to level 2!]

[Note 1: Your inventory has expanded, please manage your inventory capacity (2/10) properly.]

[Note 2: Your Digging skill has been enhanced, there is a chance to transfer items from others to your own inventory.]

Pei Jinye looked at the entrenching tool in his hand, the bloodstains on it had not yet dried.

In reality, it wasn’t the first or second time he had taken a life, he had long become indifferent to it.

He looked at the bronze-level tool.

It was a tender green leaf.

It was hard not to be reminded of the willow leaves in West Continent Dragon Valley.

Pei Jinye reached out to touch the Green Leaf.

The game system prompted again.

[Green Leaf: After killing a dark creature, there’s a chance to obtain this item. Using a Green Leaf can maintain clarity. The Green Leaf’s effect is linked to the player’s level, the higher the level, the longer the clarity lasts.]

“Maintain clarity…”

Pei Jinye was keen on the system’s prompts.

The system wouldn’t prompt such words for no reason, could it be…

He gripped the entrenching tool tightly.

He seemed ready to shovel anyone who came his way today.

Standing at the doorway,

he saw it led to a corridor. The visibility in the hallway was dim, with only a dull light shining in front of his door, looking like a faint gleam within the surrounding darkness.

He walked along.

Knocking on the door of the neighboring room.

But there was no response.

Pei Jinye was straightforward.

Visit fгee𝑤ebɳoveɭ.cøm for the best novel reading experi𝒆nce.

He kicked the door open with one foot.

The room’s layout was almost identical to the one he had just been in.

In the bedroom, there was also a wedding photo with the faces scratched off.

Even the clothes on the couple in the wedding photo were exactly the same as those in his room.

“Things are getting interesting.”

Pei Jinye showed no fear.

If anything, he could just start over!

Using the light, he moved to the third room.

Only, a large part of this door was covered in darkness.

Pei Jinye noticed something wrong.

This darkness seemed different from the one he knew.

He turned silently,

tore the second door off its hinges, and threw it towards the darkness at the third door.

It was visible to the naked eye.

The moment the door touched the darkness, it silently disintegrated.

Pei Jinye could only be glad this wasn’t reality.

Yet on second thought,

if this were truly a game world constructed by Star Ring based on advanced civilization, then everything he saw was real.

“Zombies… Darkness…”

Pei Jinye kicked the door so there was a narrow crack and, through the dim light, looked inside; the room was pitch-dark.

He stared in silence.

Saw nothing.

Just as he was about to turn and leave,

rolling sounds emanated from the room.

Pei Jinye became alert instantly.

Picking up the entrenching tool,

“Who’s there? Speak up, or I’ll kill you!”

Sounds of rustling came from the darkness.

Suddenly, a figure shrouded in darkness seemed to struggle to burst out, but was tightly trapped by it, only its distorted face visible…

along with bursts of indistinct roaring.

“Heretics… Must be purged… You… are a heretic…”

Pei Jinye, to be on the safe side,

disabled the door in front of him with the entrenching tool and moved closer to the humanoid creature.

He reached out,

and threw the Green Leaf at it.

Unexpectedly,

the Green Leaf was flung right back to him.

“…”

Pei Jinye silently caught the Green Leaf,

raised his head,

and glared menacingly at the darkness.

“Ungrateful, aren’t we?”

Having said that,

he chopped down with the entrenching tool in his hand.

Trigger effect: Digging!

[Congratulations, you have obtained a sliver of truth: Stay away from darkness, it is full of decay.]

Pei Jinye raised an eyebrow.

He took another shovel swing.

Trigger failed.

No matter!

Swing the arm!

Another strike!

[Congratulations, you have obtained a sliver of truth: Find the pillar.]

What is the pillar?

Why should it be found?

Pei Jinye didn’t care about anything, pushing all questions aside for the moment. Now was the time to swing the shovel!

“Bang!”

“Bang!”

[Congratulations, you have obtained a sliver of truth: This is Happyness Apartment.]

“Bang!”

“Bang!”

[Congratulations, you have obtained a sliver of truth: Trust in V.]

“Bang!”

“Bang!”

[Congratulations, you have obtained a sliver of truth: Eight o’clock every evening is the time for the believers to pray.]

Finally, he had obtained some useful information.

The smile on Pei Jinye’s face became even more ferocious.

He swung his arm fiercely.

And chopped once more at the black shape.

But suddenly, Pei Jinye’s shovel swung through the air, and in the darkness, the shadowy figure seemed to flee in utter disarray.

Pei Jinye was just about to give chase.

But the darkness around him surged like a rising tide.

“Lucky you’re fast!”

Pei Jinye snorted coldly, stowed his shovel, and turned to run as well.

Behind him, the darkness conveyed a sound like everything was being twisted and shattered.

In two seconds.

Pei Jinye darted into his room, and with a “bang,” he shut the door.

Outside the door, silence reigned.

As if nothing had ever happened.

“This game experience is truly awful.”

Pei Jinye curled his lips disdainfully.

Peering through the peephole.

Beyond the door, aside from the dim light, there was no movement whatsoever.

Pei Jinye withdrew his gaze.

“Interesting.”

He glanced at the system panel.

[Novice protection period: 00:00:01]

The moment the novice protection period ended, Pei Jinye felt as if the surrounding darkness was pressing in on him.

He quickly used the Green Leaf.

The Green Leaf dissipated, transforming into a stream of air that entered through Pei Jinye’s nostrils.

The moment the sensation of coolness appeared, Pei Jinye felt an inner clarity resonate.

His vision seemed to clear up quite a bit.

He noticed an old-fashioned clock hanging on the wall.

The time displayed was 7:52 PM.

And the truth he had received earlier indicated that at 8 PM, the believers would pray.

“That means I have eight minutes left.”

Pei Jinye looked around and began to use the shovel in his hand to clear away cobwebs, starting a carpet-style search.

He tried to discover some useful information.

However, there was no useful information to be found in the entire room.

At exactly 8 PM.

Footsteps could be heard outside the door.

Pei Jinye instinctively raised the shovel in his hand.

The footsteps stopped in front of the door, and unlike the hysterical banging of zombies, someone knocked on the door. A man’s voice, with a broadcaster’s intonation, rang out, “Resident 317, please bring your confession recording and follow me to the confession room.”

Confession recording?

What confession recording?

Pei Jinye had one hand on the doorknob and the other holding up the shovel.

Looking through the peephole, he saw an eye looking back at him.

Pei Jinye tilted his head to the side and hid, feigning compliance, “Alright, I’ll open the door now.”

“Resident 317, shouldn’t you be praising the mighty existence at this time?” the voice outside said calmly.

“I did praise, you just didn’t hear it,” said Pei Jinye.

“Lies! I certainly couldn’t miss the words praising the mighty existence! You must not have said them!” The broadcaster’s tone suddenly became irate.

“It’s just that you didn’t hear, you’re not devout enough!” Pei Jinye purposely angered him.

“Impossible! You’re lying! You’re lying!” the voice outside grew increasingly angry.

Pei Jinye baited, “If you don’t believe me, listen. Get close! Press your ear against the door, hear how I praise it!”

“I don’t believe you!”

“See, you lack confidence, and you lack devotion! If you don’t believe me, press your ear against the door now.”

“If you dare deceive me, the mighty existence will burn you to death!”

Through the peephole, he saw a man in a black robe bending down, leaning close to the door.

He violently opened the door.

One hand immediately clamped onto the man’s hair and yanked him into the room.

“Bang!”

The door closed.

The hallway was silent, still.

As if nothing had happened at all.

But in Pei Jinye’s room, there was a “thunderous” rumble.
