CH 161

Compared to the panic of the NPCs in the examination room, the livestream’s atmosphere filled with the cheers of an excited audience.

【Here it comes! Here it comes! The SL is here with her three-meter-tall dog head! Here comes Jiuge’s absolute masterpiece!】

【The King of the Sea!】

【This freshman is confused?】

【The local boss, Anthony III, was treated as the boss’s little brother!】

【I’m not going to lie, even if I know that Lin Xinghe = Sea King Babaros and it’s been a long time since I left that exam room, I still can’t help but feel weak when I see the dog head. I have PTSD from that. As one of the candidates in the alpine rimerose examination room, I saw the monster standing on top of the clouds, next to the lightning and thunder, and I had nightmares for days. I once thought I was going to die in the hands of the Sea King Barbaros.】

【I don’t blame the NPCs for panicking in this exam room, it’s really, really, really scary!】

【I just want to LMAO, this three-meter high dog head really looks so funny, just like this message emoji pack I have, it’s only that my emojis will not destroy a city.】

……

The NPCs in the exam room thought the same.

…… How naive and funny the dog head in the emoji pack was! How did it become so big and tall that even bullets couldn’t penetrate it!? And why is it like a monster in the crazy destruction of the city!? The subway! Public transportation! All of them are ruined! The worst part was! Even the devil doesn’t destroy the wifi at night! During the day, the dog-headed monster destroys all the wifi!

The dog-headed monster also knew to go to work on time, once it was 10 pm, it disappeared, and clocked in promptly at 5 am.

The night devil roamed from 10 pm to 5 am.

The two monsters worked seamlessly so that people had no time to breathe!

In the past, people were afraid of the night, but staying indoors would be fine.

Not anymore, people were afraid of the day!

The dog-headed monster was the real devil! It had a very high IQ and played human emotions with impunity. It would pick a famous building every day to destroy. Before the destruction, it would also arrogantly launch a warning.

Thanks to the forewarning, authorities managed to avoid casualties.

But everyone was still in a state of panic, and some people even saw the old favorite dog-head emoji with trauma, from which it was given a new meaning!

A week passed, and the people watched as building after building fell. They lost internet connection and electricity, and the people who had their own anxieties found that when faced with the big question of human survival, the original anxieties and worries of their personal lives were not really such big problems.

They couldn’t afford to buy a house before, but now no one wanted to buy a house—it might be destroyed anyways.

The original 996 work hours were gone too—many of the skills mastered in peace and prosperity were not practical for survival, which was the only thing of importance in their minds at this time.

Several nights, people who were previously anxious grew nostalgic for their previous anxiety, since it was such a blessing to be able to worry about annoying trivialities in a time of peace and prosperity.

And within this week, the national government gradually discovered that the dog-headed monster did not mean to harm human life. It was not like the devil in the night that could not communicate—it possessed intelligence.

The national government held an emergency meeting.

The result of the meeting was to send a professional negotiation team to communicate with the dog-headed monster.

So, at six o’clock in the morning of the eighth day, the negotiator took a special loudspeaker and communicated with the dog-headed monster.

“What do you need that we can do for you!”

“Let’s talk!”

The negotiator was afraid that the dog-headed monster wouldn’t understand and brought a simultaneous translator from a different country. Unexpectedly, the dog-headed monster opened its mouth in the language of the country, “I am Sea King Barbaros, and I want to see your ruler.”

Its voice was also very loud, its words echoing.

At this moment Lin Xinghe was sitting on her magic broom, shouting out with the magic gadget she got in the alpine rimerose examination hall. She missed Xie Wuan, Jiuge, Fu Zhou, and the others at this moment—fighting on the frontlines was really too physically demanding, she was still more suitable to be a warlord.

Before, the dog head floated in the seawater, but now, she had to knock back several strength potions just to have a sore back at the end of the day.

The buildings and public transportation were also blasted by her magic props, and just in a week she’d spent props like mad. The various items she obtained from the previous examination rooms were almost all gone.

But Lin Xinghe felt that it was worth it.

After her request, less than ten minutes later, the ruler of this world came to her.

The ruler was a bald male, and before he could speak, he heard the dog-headed monster snicker and say, “Tsk, why is the ruler of every novel set to be male? Boring.”

When the ruler heard this, he was slightly stunned, and heard the dog-headed monster, who called himself Sea King Barbaros, say lazily: “I’m too lazy to play with you guys. Let’s settle this early so I can leave early. The setting of this novel world is too boring, all bald, some people are already ugly, bald is even uglier, wasting this king’s time. What is your name?”

Ruler, “My surname is Hu, my name is ……”

The dog-headed monster interrupted him and said arrogantly: “Okay, no need to say it, I can’t remember even if you say it. You are not real people, there is no need to waste this king’s precious time. Surnamed Hu, at twelve o’clock exactly I want to have a press conference in this place, all media sites must be live, got it?”

The dog-headed monster continued, “Oh, almost forgot, repair your internet cables, for every second I’m delayed I’ll kill a person.”

After saying that, she put on the invisibility cloak and then quickly put the dog’s head into the portable space.

The whole person instantly disappeared in front of the ruler.

When the ruler faced the devil in the night and the monster in the day, he also only took it as a challenge to the fate of humanity and had been actively trying to find a way to deal with it, but now when he heard a few short words from the dog-headed monster, the ruler, who had always been emotional, was stunned!

…… The setting of this novel world is too boring?

…… You are not really people.

What did that mean?

The ruler felt that his outlook had been turned upside down!

…… Wasn’t the world he existed in a real world?

He was able to grasp more information that ordinary people couldn’t know and had advanced authority. When the devil appeared, he once had doubts. He loathed Lin Xinghe, but upon thinking more, he had never seen her before. She came and went without a trace as though she was an existence that was currently untouchable by technology.

He wanted Lin Xinghe captured with all his heart, but he never succeeded.

Later, he learned that Lin Xinghe was the embodiment of pathological social anxiety and that only by solving social problems could he eliminate the impact Lin Xinghe had on the people.

This made him feel the absurdity of the world and made him question the reality of the world again.

Now that he heard the dog-headed monster’s mere words, all the previous doubts without evidence became clear in an instant.

It was as if something began to burn inside.

He felt like he touched the end of the world.

And at the same time, the ruler also quickly arranged a press conference for the dog-headed monster, set up one by one according to its requirements.

At exactly 12 noon, the dog-headed monster’s press conference officially began.
