Chapter 65 My World (Sixteen)

Anyone who enters the "black room" from any online world will lose their privileges and abilities; even hackers cannot escape its control.

This mad scientist, deeply dissatisfied with the real world, recounted his revenge. The prestige he had built up in the game world over eight years was stolen by hackers, so he could only rely on curses, fraud, and lies to win over the raiders living in the City of Sin and become the leader of the villains.

In addition, he also recounted the following incident.

The game world is like a balance scale; the game only has meaning when the forces of heroes and raiders are evenly matched.

After Sin City was hacked, the heroes' forces are stronger than ever before, and the game world has already experienced a sharp decline in population. If this continues, it will inevitably lead to collapse.

“That’s exactly what he’s after.” Billis seized on the imaginary enemy and asked, “Are you sure he’ll come here?”

“I used six modified beings to thwart the hero’s momentum. Each of them wanted to defeat me alone. Didn’t you all think the same way before you came here?” the mad scientist said confidently. “I’ve been in the game for eight years and have seen all kinds of people. He belongs to the type who doesn’t know fear until he’s been taught a lesson.”

"I like that way of putting it. In fact, he committed far more sins in the other world than you can imagine."

"You know him?"

"Like you, I am an Avenger."

"You want to stand on my side, is that it?"

Billis stared silently upwards: "We're all people who've been put into the 'little black room,' do we have any other choice?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the grid suddenly became chaotic, as if a violent earthquake had occurred, turning into a glass display case one moment, a display screen the next, and an ancient arena the next.

The scene became quite chaotic. After an unknown amount of time, two stars appeared in the distance. Upon closer inspection, it was discovered that the two stars were identical in position and size.

Then, a mountain gradually emerged from the grid lines, and the mountain became an orc, with the stars becoming the orc's eyes.

The orc, made of a grid, stood upright in the digital space for more than a minute, as if anticipating new changes.

Billy frowned and yelled, "Stop acting! We're all here, just spit it out!"

The mesh orcs received a response, bursting open from the middle to reveal the shining justice.

"Ah, you've finally found this place."

The mad scientist thought the hacker was after him, but the hacker didn't even glance at him.

"Don't recognize me? No problem, welcome to the 'little dark room' where you can enter but not leave. Here, all superpowers will be unusable."

The hacker read through the entire speech and finally recognized the person.

"Oh, I thought you weren't here." The hacker no longer needed to hide it, removing his airtight helmet to reveal orcish fangs. "You led me here?"

The mad scientist was overjoyed, laughing so hard he was shaking: "I never thought you would fall into my trap so quickly."

"Is it possible that I came to the 'little dark room' voluntarily?"

"What?"

“You can ask the agent over there what my purpose is. I’ve been to three worlds. Even if I destroy any one of them, the astral brain will still survive. Only by entering the right domain and using the right methods can I destroy it.” The orc chieftain’s tone grew increasingly heavy. “The ‘little black room’ is the place I’m looking for. It’s the hub of the entire network, the bridge connecting all the worlds.”

Confused and bewildered, the mad scientist could barely hear what the hacker was saying; his voice was as soft as a chick hiding in the grass.

Or rather, the distance between them was being stretched further and further by some external force, and their voices were growing farther and farther away.

A major change has occurred in the "little dark room".

The grid lines became increasingly blurred, and the world's image became more and more realistic. Several tentacles from the universe above tore open the cracks, and a large amount of magical matter overflowed from the void.

Before long, the fissure revealed its ever-changing abilities and transformed into a large eyeball.

Unlike Biris, the orc chieftain invaded the brain network through the wizard's void domain. If the void replaces the 'dark room', the astral brain will be completely destroyed.

"This is cheating!"

The mad scientist was completely dumbfounded. He had never seen so many tentacles writhing in the sky. He had just stood up to run away when his body suddenly froze.

The 'black room' has been affected by real magic and has begun to trigger the shutdown process, forcing all virtual characters in the online world to go offline.

The mad scientist disappeared, and so did the berserk battles and infinite gravity.

Because they log into the brain in different ways, neither Biris nor the orc chieftain will disappear.

Billy calmly exhaled smoke rings, but for some reason, he found the smoke today very choking and put it out after only a few puffs.

Then, like a boxer preparing to enter the ring, he took off his shirt, did some warm-up exercises, hunched his shoulders, and punched the air violently with his fists.

Finally, they threw the obsolete ether pistol on the ground.

The orc chieftain, puzzled, asked, "You want to fight me one-on-one?"

Billy smiled and said, "I guess since the 'little black room' didn't completely disappear, you probably lost your superpowers like the other heroes."

The orc chieftain tried to emit light waves from his palms, but just as Billis had said, nothing happened.

The only thing that can happen between the two of them is a fair fight!

The orc chieftain suddenly burst into laughter, tore off his clothes, and pulled out a black strap to blindfold himself.

"That's what fairness looks like, come on!"

The blindfolded chief could only rely on his ears to find his way. Because he hadn't protected his head, he was the first to be punched by Biris, but the punch felt like a tickle to him.

The magic of the void began to swirl as they fought.

Billy was aggressive and wanted to stop his opponent as soon as possible. He landed a second punch on the nose and a third punch on the chin, but these two punches, like the first one, had no effect.

The chieftain showed no signs of pain, indicating that he had undergone professional training. Combined with the physique of orcs, he was clearly far superior to humans in close combat.

Billy had just smoked and still smelled of cigarette smoke on him.

The chief smelled the smoke and casually threw a punch in that direction. It seemed he brushed against something, and a strong, pungent fishy smell emanated from his hand.

Fortunately, Billy dodged quickly, otherwise that blow would have been fatal.

As the number of tentacles increased, the magical energy grew stronger, and the 'little dark room' became distorted and deformed. The entire space, like a folded cardboard box, began to shrink again.

The two jumped up and down on the spot, and when their hands met, their fists came flying like a machine gun.

Billy hit the chief's shoulders, and the chief hit nothing but air.

However, perhaps it was just a coincidence that one of the punches that Billy didn't dodge happened to hit him in the stomach.

Suddenly, the world spun around, and the light and shadows blurred.

He only took one punch, but it felt like he had taken no less than a hundred punches; the disparity in strength was obvious.

That punch dried up his lungs, but Billis still had some strength left. He suddenly dodged the left hand that was striking him, then leaned his head forward, rested it on the chief's damp shoulder, and headbutted each other.

If it were that easy to do, a chief wouldn't deserve to be called a chief.

The orc's head was as hard as an iron plate. After only two headbutts, Biris's right eye seemed to bulge out. At the same time, he cunningly chose a spot to fall down, making the chieftain think he had already won.

The chief genuinely believed he had won and disengaged from the fighting stance, intending not to resist.

Just then, Irenshere raised his foot and kicked the chief in the chin.

The chief's heart pounded twice. Suddenly, he grabbed Biris's foot, threw him to the side, and then pressed him down on top of him.

A large amount of real, bright red butterfly-shaped blood clots suddenly flowed from Billy's chest, and he really couldn't get up anymore.

The chief removed the black cloth and looked at the suffering Biris.

"Stop trying to be clever. You've lost, Agent. In a minute or two, the Astral Brain will be destroyed along with the 'Dark Room.' It will be the last dessert offered to the Demon Pillar."

"I bet you five dollars, you won't get away either."

"Yeah?"

"When the brain disappears, our consciousness also dies."

“Mr. Agent, I have no intention of leaving. I came to the ‘dark room’ to guide the wizard. It is an unparalleled honor to dedicate my life to the great magic pillar.”

Billy hummed and looked at the stars in the void of space, where there was a glowing lute.
