Chapter 269 - - 267 The Fastest Chaotic World_1

—————✧✧✧✧—————

“Who’s around the government building, what happened to the Ghost King? Was he destroyed by the Bright Light Array?”

“I’m nearby. After the Ghost King clashed with the Bright Light Array, he seems to have been injured and fled towards the south of the city, probably hiding to heal.”

“I’m in the south of the city and can’t feel the Ghost King’s presence. Either he’s entered an Extremely Yin Land or has possessed a mortal.”

“Even an injured Ghost King is not someone we can handle. Let’s all rest, and wait for the elders from our families to come. Didn’t a few more enter the hospital? Let’s focus on them!”

“Agreed.”

“Agreed.”

…

First Hospital of Tongshan City.

In a single-person ward.

A teenager with a spleen hemorrhage and an IV drip lay in bed scrolling through his phone, trying to understand the world and deduce its main storyline, mumbling as he swiped, “Confession, why the hell did I randomly get such an unlucky keyword? How many people do I have to confess to, to level up my attributes?

Confess to the whole world?

‘Confession’ can mean a declaration or a notice; confessing to the whole world might indeed skyrocket my attributes, but I still need people to give a damn about me!”

“Don’t panic, don’t panic. There must be a way out.” The teen mindlessly scrolled through his phone, comforting himself, “Think about the idol Duge. He even turned a keyword like ‘happiness’ into something extraordinary. There’s no reason ‘confession’ can’t be played up. If I had known it was ‘confession’, I would’ve possessed a celebrity right then and there.”

As if on cue, just as he mentioned celebrities, a news page popped up on the teenager’s phone: “Popular young actor Cheng Yu seems shaken by box office failure, flaunts wealth on social media to mock fans as ‘poor ghosts.’”

The teen casually clicked on the trending news.

Just moments later, his eyes widened: “Holy shit, such a huge contrast between before and after. This guy must be possessed! The keyword is ‘mock’ huh? Do they still want us to live? Starting so big right out of the gate?”

He swallowed hard: “No, this simulated world only lasts two and a half months. If I don’t quickly boost my attributes, I’m done for! Duge always finishes within a month…”

He couldn’t bother to refresh the news any longer.

Like the wind, the teen opened his messaging app, selected everyone in his contact list, and wrote a message: “I’ve secretly been watching you for a long time. I love seeing you cry, seeing you laugh, the way you walk. When I close my eyes, my heart is full of you. I can’t hold back any longer. Today, I have to confess to you. Will you be my girlfriend? I will spend the rest of my life loving you with all my heart and soul!”

After finishing the message.

He hit send to all.

Listening to the ding-dong sounds of incoming messages, feeling his body heal rapidly, the teen chuckled slyly, “Here I come, world.”

Then.

He opened the game he was playing and sent the confession message to his gaming buddies as well.

…

“This Cheng Yu must be a contender!”

In an office of another entertainment company, a sweet-looking female star also stumbled upon Cheng Yu’s post. She shook her head with a smile, “Mocking, huh? Come on, let’s have fun together!”

Then.

She opened Weibo and posted her own message: “Cheng Yu’s rant is spot-on. You guys are a bunch of dog shit; no, calling you dog shit is an insult to dogs.”

It hadn’t been sent long.

When the door to her office was slammed open by her agent: “Li Yao, have you lost your mind?”

Li Yao chuckled, “Can’t you fucking knock? You scared the shit out of me. I’m not crazy; it’s this damned world that’s gone nuts.”

The agent was speechless.

Li Yao, feeling her attributes skyrocketing and gazing at her personal panel with the keyword “Crudeness” and the newly acquired advanced skill “Foul Language,” looked smug.

Just saying.

Keywords should be freely played with. What’s the point of being so cautious? Thanks to Boss Du for bringing a new trend…

…

This time.

All those who entered the simulation were misfits gathered from various places, the kind who would have never been allowed on an Alien Battlefield before, but Duge had worked a miracle, forcing Pan-Universe Entertainment to change the rules afterward.

Qiyuan Star crammed all these potential fellows into Duge’s simulation, they wanted to see what kind of sparks would fly when a bunch of impulsive characters with bizarre ideas came together in a simulation.

Of course.

It also served as a warm-up for Duge in advance.

After all, the next Alien Battlefield couldn’t possibly be as peaceful as the previous ones had been, giving Duge a chance to prepare was a good idea, since the hopes of Qiyuan Star were currently pinned on him, and no one wished for Duge to run into trouble on his second Alien Battlefield.

As expected, this group, having watched Duge’s replay videos and finally felt a sense of recognition, entered the simulation and let loose, each displaying their Divine Skills and using the fastest speed to boost their own keywords and enhance their attributes.

On the first day in the simulation, a plethora of bizarre incidents erupted in various places.

As well as many criminal cases.

After all.

Each simulation wasn’t without keywords related to slaughter and cruelty, and it was impossible to grow such keywords without breaking the law in a peaceful world.

One might say.

Gathering so many hidden dragons and crouching tigers, this was the most quickly chaotic simulation ever.

Of course.

Facing candidates with keywords, the peaceful world wasn’t without its means of retaliation, firearms could pose a threat to them in the early stages of their growth.

Moreover, this wasn’t a purely realistic world, the world was hidden with many experts.

The initial number of over a thousand participants rapidly decreased in one day’s time, swiftly reducing to just over seven hundred.

…

Duge’s agent, Zhao Hongmei, made a series of phone calls to extinguish fires everywhere.

But when she put down her phone, barely catching her breath, Zhao Hongmei glanced at the trending searches and her eyes widened in shock, “Li Yao has gone mad, insulting fans at a time like this, jumping out to share the heat with you?”

Duge had also been watching his phone, refreshing the news.

“A citizen in Puchuan City allegedly mutated, attacked and killed dozens of pedestrians on the street, took several bullets without injury, then killed and wounded several police officers, seized firearms, and was killed on the spot by a masked Swordsman.”

“An internet celebrity openly abused their own pet cat during a live broadcast, stirring public outrage.”

“The popular actress Li Yao cursed at her fans on Weibo, saying her fans were worse than dog shit…”

…

Duge browsed through the news, his eyebrows gradually rising, “Good lord, a bunch of people without a shred of logic, not even aware of the world’s composition, and just recklessly boosting their attributes!”

I’m in here to acquire skills, what are you trying to do?

Do you think this is a simulation day trip?

Messing around like this, it’d be strange if the Alien Battlefield picked you…

“Cheng Yu, the company has decided to cast you in a role similar to being a victim of cyberbullying. Remember, the comments you just made were just lines, not meant to target anyone, just practicing for a new role. Understand?” Zhao Hongmei looked at Duge seriously, “The company will hold a press conference tomorrow, and you need to cooperate, okay? Stop being so headstrong, okay?”

“Mm.” Duge nodded indifferently, knowing that any attempts to obfuscate now, after the heat had risen, were futile. There were those who were ready to kick him while he was down.

As long as he kept issuing discriminatory statements, his attributes would grow endlessly without stopping.

“It’s good that Li Yao is taking some of the heat off you, otherwise, this issue wouldn’t have been so easy to suppress,” Zhao Hongmei looked at Duge and sighed, “Cheng Yu, what the hell were you thinking earlier?”

“I might have been cursed,” Duge replied.

“What?” Zhao Hongmei was taken aback.

Duge showed Zhao Hongmei the news of the Swordsman killing the candidate, “Do you remember when Daoist Suwen’s Jade Pendant suddenly shattered before? I didn’t believe in those supernatural things, but seeing this news, I do now. I remember not touching the Jade Pendant, yet it broke, and then, I posted that strange Weibo. Do you think that’s a coincidence? Sister Zhao, someone’s plotting against me.”

“…” Zhao Hongmei’s expression suddenly grew serious.

“If we don’t find out who’s behind this, similar incidents might happen again.” Duge frowned deeply, “I felt like I wasn’t myself at the time. Sister Zhao, we should go see Daoist Suwen; otherwise, I’m afraid something might go wrong at tomorrow’s press conference…”
