Chapter 20
The idle mode had been turned off.
The time in the Nightmare Fragment instance had accelerated to ten years later, and the character had grown to the peak state within this instance.Th.ê most uptodate novels are published on n(0)velbj)n(.)co/m
Bai Yi slowly opened his eyes, accompanied by the system’s narration, as he passed through the deep sea filled with large fragments of stars.
A wind blew from afar, causing his collar to rustle.
He was standing at an unprecedented height. With a slight downward shift of his gaze, he could see the continuous city buildings under his feet.
The rich night enveloped the city, and the flickering neon lights drew a series of crisscrossing “rainbows” on the pitch-black night sky, like a child’s crayon drawing.
Bai Yi stood on the rooftop. Behind him, the unsealed door faintly transmitted the elegant piano music and speeches.
Whether from the luxurious scale of this building or from the words floating out from behind the door, it was undoubtedly a grand and extraordinary party taking place here.
Yet, he stood alone on the rooftop, enjoying the breeze, standing at the highest point of this city, appreciating the scenery under his feet.
This inevitably reminded Bai Yi of the first time he entered this game, the embarrassment that this character had shown.
——It was a startling contrast.
Bai Yi sighed immediately, “Dongdong ah Dongdong, I didn’t expect that after ten years, you have changed from a double ‘Dong’ to a single ‘Dong’! The aura is different all of a sudden! Did the system really not choose the [show-off] trait at the beginning?”
After a round of indiscriminate mockery of the character, the system, and even himself who had become this character, he took his hand out of his pocket–yes, this body was indeed in the show-off pose of one hand in the pocket–and then concluded.
“Ah, it’s like a living history of the evolution of a waste material stream novel protagonist~”
With such a sigh, Bai Yi casually pulled open the panel.
One after another, historical messages brushed past on the panel.
[Idle mode has been activated, character fate deduction in progress.]
[Under the cultivation and influence of the player, your character [Xu Dong] had evolved from a weak and incompetent waste to a demon possessing a series of traits such as coldness, cunning, disguise, and insight.]
[In the first year of your release, your character [Xu Dong] continued to play the demon game, creating the most terrifying and bizarre [Nightmare March] in Qingnan High School. He not only sent every one of his enemies to hell, but also single-handedly increased the transfer rate of Qingnan High School, making Qingnan High School one of the countless legendary [cursed schools].]
[In the second year of your release, your character [Xu Dong] began to lose interest in the game of Qingnan High School and gradually expanded the scope to the blocks around Qingnan High School.]
[In the third year of your release, your character [Xu Dong] entered a university in the same city and found new fun in the new school. Feeling that he was understaffed alone, he began to hide in the dark to select targets to develop wings and build an information network that fully covered the surroundings.]
At this point, the screen was filled with more and more text.
[Your character [Xu Dong] obtained a simple-minded and physically developed tool person +1 through deception.]
[The characteristics of this card have been determined and cannot be modified.]
[This card comes with a special identity [Master of the Shadow Council], inherent leadership temperament, and skills to bewitch people’s hearts.]
[This card comes with a blank special scene [Shadow Council], currently in addition to the chairman, four core members and several peripheral members can be recruited from the outside world. The chairman can give the “Four Pillars” template blessing to the four core members.]
[Explanation: This member must have a certain fit with the “Four Pillars” template. After the template is blessed, the “Four Pillars” skill will be automatically obtained, and it can continue to improve through efforts and other ways.]
“Is this a card that comes with its own organizational system?”
Bai Yi was spinning the character card at his fingertips rapidly.
“Just need to pull in a few more people, and an organization can be directly established?”
The front of the card was a blurry black fog, heavy shadows shrouded in the fog, obscuring the silhouette of the person in the fog.
On the back of the card, several lines of text were arranged side by side——
[Puppet Master★★]
[Mysterious Leader of the Shadow Council]
[The Greatest Evil Above Evil]
[Puppet Master Hidden Under Heavy Curtains]
The card was spinning rapidly, the illusory brilliance flickered in mid-air, reflecting in Bai Yi’s thoughtful eyes.
He slowly curved up the corners of his mouth.
“When sleepiness comes, a pillow is provided. This card has suddenly given me some new inspiration.”
Bai Yi looked up at the heavy rain curtain outside the window, suddenly raised his palm, and threw the card out like shooting a dart.
“Biu~~~”
He made a sound for himself like whistling.
The card followed his intention, turned a circle in mid-air, and flew back.
On the surface of the card that was shrouded in heavy shadows and black fog, it seemed that someone had hooked up the corner of their mouth, revealing a smile with the exact same curvature.
