“Welcome to our company’s product. Scanning has begun. Please wait a moment.”
[Scan completed, citizen ID confirmed: SH13***313, name: [Feng bujue][access device: NL2055 luxury single-person gaming pod, no external hardware detected][[Cardiopulmonary function is at normal value. Neural connection program is ready. Please choose the type of connection.]
“Access type is non-sleep mode. Adjusting … Adjustment complete. Please confirm to load the game or return to the upper option.”
“Program activated. Loading in ten seconds …”
With a familiar voice, Feng bujue logged into the game.!!
Since Ruoyu had not recovered from her cold and needed to rest in bed, brother Jue went online alone in the evening.
after entering the log-in space, he first dealt with the mail, then simply chose the normal difficulty single player survival mode and entered the queue.
for the past two weeks, whenever feng bujue had free time, he would queue up for this kind of scenario that could be cleared quickly. of course … his purpose was not to farm for levels or equipment but to seek the help of a certain ‘specific creature’ in the endless world of scenarios.
the race, form, and abilities of these creatures were all uncertain. however, they could all be classified as high gods by the same name.
when they saw this, there would definitely be people who would be puzzled. were none of the bosses that brother jue knew in the main universe considered a high god? couldn’t he just ask them for help?
indeed, feng bujue’s network in the main universe … or rather, the ‘holy pulse’… was very wide. however, no one in the entire universe could help him with what he was going to do this time. he wanted to borrow the super-dimensional power of the ‘god’ to activate the [kongtong seal] and retrieve the data of the part that was destroyed.
although there were a few heavenly god-level characters in the main universe who had the power to activate the kongtong seal, they were in the universe of thriller paradise, so they could not reverse the data destruction caused by number 23, which had the same nature as the supreme god (fate).
in order to accomplish this, they had to rely on the hands of the gods of other multiverses; if that was not the case, lute would have personally used the kongtong seal to help brother jue recover his data and would not have to go through all this trouble.
however, it had never been easy to seek help from the gods of other universes.
In most cases, the players would not have the chance to come into contact with the ‘God-level’ existences in the scenario. In fact, some universes did not even have the setting for ‘gods’.
However, brother Jue could not just exit every scenario after reading the introduction and feeling that the chance was slim. If he did that, the penalty of not being able to log in after the exit would only waste more time.
Therefore, in the past few days, Feng bujue had been queuing for normal difficulty single player scenarios in non-sleeping mode (this mode had a higher chance of encountering short-flow scenarios). His priority after entering the scenario was: First, try to get in touch with the high gods of the universe; Second, clear the instance as quickly as possible if you can’t complete the first condition. Thirdly, if he could not even fulfill the second condition, he could play the ‘greedy’ game. After all, he could still end the scenario quickly if he failed or died. He could always reset the scenario if he died.

Feng bujue, level 56
“Please select the game mode you wish to join.”
“You’ve chosen solo survival mode (normal). Please confirm.”
“Confirmed, generating scenario …”
“Loading, please wait.”
Welcome to Thriller Paradise.” This time, it was a gentle male voice that started the conversation. His tone sounded cold and numb.
When he said that, brother Jue lost control of his body and fell into darkness.
“Download Complete. You are currently playing single player survival mode (normal).”
“A scenario introduction is provided in this mode, and there is a chance of a side or hidden mission and a special world-building appearing.
“Reward for clearing the scenario: puzzle card *1
“The scenario introduction is about to play. The game will start immediately after the play.
After a short silence, the opening cinematics and voice-over began.
[Dark clouds cover the night sky, and the floating lights and shadows light up the Gothic-style towering buildings.]
[This is a City of Sin.]
[There are extravagant temples here, filled with corrupt and incompetent rulers and powerful people who are willing to do anything for the sake of wealth.]
[There are also dark alleys here for criminals and lunatics to run wild.]
[And in the remaining poor streets and alleys, there are some good people who still have a conscience and are honest.]
The second the introduction started, Feng bujue already recognized the city. He did not need to listen to the entire description to know … This was Gotham.
[Fortunately, all of this has become a thing of the past …]
“Ha?” When he heard that, brother Jue was slightly confused and thought, why do you say that?
[One day, a hero who called himself “Batman” appeared out of nowhere and changed the city with his extraordinary wisdom and strength.]
[Not long after this superhero stepped onto the stage of Gotham, the coppart family’s only son, ausward Chestfield coppart, won the mayor election. The swift and decisive Mayor immediately launched an attack on all the evil forces in Gotham.]
“Hmm … A gang leader becoming a Mayor or something … It’s not new in the DC Universe.”To strike down the evil forces … Not only can I clear my enemies, but I can also build up my reputation in the hearts of the people …” Feng bujue thought to himself.”Looks like the Penguin people in this universe are the more intelligent version …”
[In the same year, the upright and unyielding prosecutor Harvey Dent and the upright and determined Police Chief James Gordon also stood up. They formed an alliance with the mayor of coppart, representing the light of Gotham. The power of light swept away the corruption and evil in the city with lightning speed.]
“In other words … Dente hasn’t turned into a two-faced person, but Gordon has already been promoted to director …” As brother Jue listened, he tried to organize the scenario’s timeline and some of the characters he knew in his mind.
[And at night, the city’s Dark Knight, black bat, would sweep through the darkest and dirtiest corners of Gotham.]
[Just like that, in less than two years, Gotham has completely changed.]
“What?” When he heard that, Feng bujue felt something was off. He suddenly felt that the sentence ‘all of this is in the past’ did not seem to be referring to the change that was brought about by the appearance of Batman.
[today’s gotham is a positive example that the whole country and even the whole world admires;[there are no supervillains or criminal organizations in this city. occasionally, some petty thieves will come out and carry out their activities, but they will be brought to justice by the police or batman in a very short time.]
[for three consecutive years, the city with the lowest crime rate in the united states has been unanimously crowned by the media and the public as “the most suitable place to live,””the best public security,””the people are simple,” and so on … such achievements have made mayor coppart’s re-election prospects very good.]
[prosecutor dente, director gordon, and batman have all become well-known, admired, and praised heroes of the present era.]
“What the f * ck?” Feng bujue finally cursed in his heart, are you kidding me? In a world with Batman as the background, the people could actually live and work in peace? And the few main characters are not dead, disabled, or blackened?”
[Maybe you’re thinking that although this kind of story mode where ‘everyone lives happily’ is very common and people like to see it, it’s a little strange that it happened in Gotham.]
At this point, the tone of the voice-over suddenly changed. The original onlooker-like narrative was no longer there, and in its place was a first-person attitude.
[It doesn’t matter. You can keep your own thoughts, and I’m very happy to help you get rid of this confusion in your heart. [When you discover the truth, you will naturally get a logical answer … Traveler from another world.]
The second sentence, after the change in tone, felt like a ‘character’ was talking to a player, and what caught Feng bujue’s attention was … The ‘voice-over’ referred to brother Jue as a ‘traveler from another world’ and not a ‘player’.
“Could it be …” Feng bujue suddenly thought of something.”I’ve encountered someone similar to Billy … Someone who can interfere with the introduction of the scenario to a certain extent?”
He couldn’t push his reasoning further because the narration came to an abrupt end after the last sentence.
The next second, Feng bujue gained the ability to move.
He didn’t know if it was a coincidence or fate … But this time, his journey began in a cell in a mental hospital.
