Chapter 604 -606: The New Pit Without Radishes

“The apartment already has an owner in this radish patch, I need to find a newly born derivative Abnormality to blend in,” Qin Muye thought he could only look for a new pit to try his luck at becoming chosen by a Ghost Specter.

“Next up is to figure out how to become the store manager, can’t let anyone beat me to it, especially after finally finding a new pit.”

“Seems… I’ve found a new pit?”

“First, I have to cleanse myself of the aura of the National Thriller Game, otherwise I can’t apply for the job.”

“Tsk, lucky it’s a normal organization. If it were some other protagonist, that Dr. Ma might have had to personally enter Ghost Specter territory to pull off a miracle.”

“Now that I think about it, if I were the main character back then, would it be possible that I might have become a member of the All World Protector Organization, or perhaps a participant in some thrilling or horrifying event involving a Ghost Specter?”

“Has it disintegrated?” Qin Muye made a quick observation and figured out the Ghost Specter’s intention.

“Perfect, I quit my job as a chef at the garden restaurant to become the manager at this Hui Ghost convenience store!”

For instance, some bizarre buildings, like the institutions that specifically served those unlucky souls sent in, or places like inns that had to survive through the night, and communities that served some retirement homes, and so on—all of these were still there when Qin Muye visited yesterday. The workers there winked and gestured at Qin Muye, looking quite arrogant.

After all, reform is not a problem, but the issue is that the enemy has already reached the doorstep, and reforming now is of no use whatsoever.

If not pushed too hard, it seems like an ordinary force, but if really pressured, perhaps even the Cosmic Will of the Shining Universe server and its Star God forces would have to be contained by the All World Protector Organization. It’s absurdly extreme.

Not far away stood a convenience store that was just about to open.

Beyond that, some ghostly residents also disappeared, just like the Ghost Specter absorbing them due to nutritional deficiency, supplementing itself—it’s not impossible, considering the All World Protector’s blockade and severing of external passages, even a bizarre Abnormality wouldn’t be able to withstand it.

It’s probably that the new System couldn’t be identified and therefore bypassed the blockade, but it’s unclear how long this could last.

Of course, it would have to be the Cosmic Will that had just recovered or was dismembered. Qin Muye couldn’t predict at its peak because he didn’t know what trump cards the All World Protector Organization really held.

Moreover, Qin Muye also realized that these Special Task Forces were not the ace of the All World Protector Organization, but rather like special forces.

And if he couldn’t get it, then it didn’t matter; after all, this was just an accident to begin with.

Anyway, Qin Muye didn’t see it.

The Ghost Specter was retracting its forces across the board and wouldn’t last long under attack from the All World Protector Organization.

The good thing was that this wasn’t simple; it was just an aura, like a recognition code, easily dealt with in a snap.

Since it couldn’t absorb nutrients from the outside, it had to digest from within.

He estimated that the apparent incomplete Ninth Rank power was probably just for show, and there had to be a complete Ninth Rank in this world, possibly even rivaling the Cosmic Will at its peak.

The specifics would depend on Dr. Zodiac’s plan within the All World Protector Organization.

But passing by today, it was just gone, a truly terrifying unemployment rate.

Ghost Specters are very powerful, but that’s when firepower is lacking., With sufficient firepower, especially when possessing high-tech weapons, no amount of bluster can compete with a bullet piercing their chest and subsequently exploding them into a ball of flame.

Even though Ghost Convenience Store and All-People’s Thrilling Game both fall under Ghost entities, there are differences between them, similar to the differences between a Sales Department and Finance Department. You can’t just take action across departments, otherwise, the other side won’t accept it.

It’s definitely going to be a little difficult, after all, without the encoding of All-People’s Thrilling Game, Qin Muye became an unregistered resident within the Ghost entities, and the selection of store managers for Ghost Convenience Store would definitely not happen there. They’re only recruited from the real world, considering those in Ghost entities all belong to someone else and can’t just switch jobs to the convenience store.

The other permissions actually don’t have much of an effect, or to put it more bluntly, they can no longer influence him. As long as he completes his research, his permissions in the territory can virtually reach over ninety percent. Then, the so-called Territory Rank becomes meaningless.

Qin Muye was instantly taken aback, the boredom he felt before immediately vanished.

Qin Muye guessed he probably had at most one month’s time. As for the fastest scenario, it might be that by tomorrow Qin Muye wouldn’t make it to his job at the Garden Restaurant, and by then the entire Ghost entity space could have already been contained.

Although Qin Muye now possesses Rank 9 power, he has already left the “Lord Era” and the judgement of the “Lord Era” is based on the Territory Rank, not the Lord himself.

Qin Muye also realized this issue, but for him, this was a minor issue, not a major one.

Qin Muye could only try slowly. If with his current brainpower and computing power he could snag it while having a bit of fun, that would be an unexpected bonus.

As of now, the infiltration into the entire Ghost entity space was still very serious, and many people had been rescued. However, the area where Qin Muye was located was somewhat awkward. The All World Protector Organization’s Special Task Force had not yet advanced to this area, possibly due to its remoteness or perhaps because it was located in a central area.

Therefore, Qin Muye couldn’t possibly spare the energy to research this minor issue, as that would delay the progress of his various projects, which was undoubtedly like picking up sesame seeds and losing the watermelon.

He did think about stealing directly, but without a container, and the container is the Talent inherent to the Ghost entities themselves. Without a container, he cannot integrate nor convert it into the World Source.

Higher up, there are even more powerful existences and equipment, and Qin Muye even suspects that the All World Protector Organization possesses the power to destroy this instance world. This is not an exaggeration, when it comes to strength, the All World Protector Organization is the highest and lowest limit of civilizational force he has seen.

Why is it about pulling through a crisis? Because normal decision-makers wouldn’t come here and send their think tank to the front lines, abandoning their own advantages and duties to engage in close combat with the enemy, turning an overwhelming situation into a crisis management one.

It’s like changing the business model, to avoid the comprehensive blockade by the All World Protector Organization.

Take the Garden Restaurant, for example, if it weren’t for the derivative Abnormalities brought in by All-People’s Thrilling Game, it’s highly likely it would have been optimized away.

You see, whether it’s an instance or a server, upon his arrival, it’s highly likely that he will encounter beings one Rank higher than himself. And since his territory is Rank 8, it implies the presence of Rank 9 beings.

So, aside from Qin Muye, the odd one out who thrives and switches jobs effortlessly, it would be simpler for anyone else to simply survive than to change jobs.

Besides, strength alone can’t overwhelm the All World Protector Organization’s Special Task Force. The members of these teams are indeed just well-trained ordinary people, but their Equipment allows them to transform instantly into Rank 6 warriors.

After wandering around the area for a while, he noticed some things, like the Ghost entities seeming to slowly decline, as if they were gasping for air.

Even before, the All World Protectors had already had sufficient countermeasures in place, from strategy to resources. They had the entire All World Protector organization pinned down, betting on a bunch of ghosts weaker than a motley crew to win? That’s simply a fantasy.

This led to the disappearance of a large number of ferocious ghosts and buildings.

This is also the world with the darkest technology that Qin Muye has ever seen. As for relying on external things, those who rely on their own strength have been beaten to death, so breaking the sky is still just sophistry.

As Qin Muye was strolling around, he abruptly stopped in his tracks as he looked at a store not far away.

Previously, both All-People’s Thrilling Game and the thrilling Big Escape Killing broadcasts used vast numbers as their units, but this newly established convenience store was different. It only recruited one manager, that is, a single person. And through this person, it projected into the real world to carry out mixed sales of human and ghost.

But because of the All World Protector Organization’s blockade on Ghost entities, these derivative abnormalities could no longer infiltrate the outside world from Ghost entities, the main Abnormality, so the effects that Ghost entities had left in the real world have been completely neutralized.

As for the current research, it’s impossible. The projects he’s currently working on, whether they are the Mythical Treasure Territory Traits or research on Territory Buildings and Rank 8 Spirit Monsters, among others, all have far more utility than a Territory Advancement. Currently, the role of Territory Rank to him is nothing more than expanding the territory range and Troop Rank.
