“…”

“The biggest entrepreneur in our city, donating an average of two billion a year, I hope it’s true.” Qin Muye didn’t really believe it was a full two billion; it was probably split, though.

“Even bigger than my villa, the All World Protector Organization is really stingy when it comes to spending.”

“Not a real entity?” Qin Muye reached out to grab it, but the thing was just an illusion, not really existing.

“Luckily, there were traces when the other side made the sacrifice, otherwise I might not have understood.”

“It’s quite hidden; this thing is interesting, looks like it’s used for raising little ghosts or conducting demon rituals.” Qin Muye looked around the underground basement on the second level, where the stench was quite overpowering.

“Another level?”

“Sacrifices need people, and even specific years at that; I’d like to lie down and offer myself, but I’m not sure if they’d accept.”

“It seems like a true sacrifice to some Abnormality, with no traces but a certain revelatory process, which aligns with the characteristics of an Abnormality.”

“Then I want to know all the secrets of the All World Protector Organization.”

“Then give me as much Perpetual Motion Machine Knowledge as these offerings can fetch.” Qin Muye wasn’t picky, he would accept whatever knowledge he could get.

“Can you give me Knowledge of the Perpetual Motion Machine?” Qin Muye asked tentatively, while silently preparing to seize the object.

“Your offerings are not sufficient to fulfill this wish.” The Shadow seemed to lack sentience, following only a set of strange logic.

“Your offerings are not sufficient to fulfill this wish.” The Shadow repeated once more.

“Your wish has been fulfilled.” As it spoke, the Shadow disappeared, and a one-dollar bill fell onto the center of the altar.

“Are you playing games with me now?”

“Thirty-year-old white spirits, twenty-year-old red wine, twelve-year-old…that’s illegal!”

“Try the Prayer Technique…” Qin Muye casually dug several stones from the wall and then said to them: “This is a twelve-year-old!”

“State your wish.”

“I want…”

“I want to know the Dragon Vein Making Method.”

“I want a one-dollar bill.” After trying for nearly two hours, Qin Muye finally said in frustration.

“I wonder if the All World Protector Organization has discovered this yet, or maybe they have but kept their tribute.”

“I wonder if the Law Enforcers will handle this matter…” Qin Muye casually picked up the villa’s phone and made a call to report it.

“That means the city’s top entrepreneur’s path to wealth isn’t exactly clean.”

“Having a basement makes sense, big households have to store some stuff, right?”

“Morning report, today in our city…”

“This setup can’t even fulfill a simple pleasure drink wish.” Qin Muye was utterly speechless, perhaps because his offerings were indeed too meager.

“So it turns out, those several twelve-year-olds should be considered as offerings.” Qin Muye had a look around but didn’t feel much.

“Thinking about it, how many people did that city entrepreneur sacrifice to end up in this situation?”

He arranged the stones on the altar, then sat and waited, eye to eye with the small ones.

Beta Level actions shouldn’t be messed with either, or they might also go out of control.

He had thought his villa was not too small, but after seeing the other’s, he really felt he was being too modest.

And, before his memory was erased, Qin Muye had been exposed, and currently, the All World Protector Organization was actively searching for him, but not overtly; rather, using the existing social system and various surveillance facilities.

Taking advantage of the fact that Law Enforcers had yet to arrive, he quickly realized that this basement was a bit unusual.

After finishing breakfast, Qin Muye also looked through the list of successful people and entrepreneurs in our city — today he planned to visit them one by one to see if any were the Emperor’s Nascent Soul.

Old Li had continued to work as usual, his memories from last night had been erased and replaced entirely; even a few of his security colleagues had undergone the same ordeal.

Just now, they had used a device for facial recognition, and Qin Muye knew that the device was connected to the high-end artificial intelligence of the All World Protector Organization.

More importantly, Qin Muye had vanished into thin air, which was bound to raise suspicion.

As the words fell, Qin Muye shivered, “Done, it cost me one percent of my Magic Value.”

It was exceedingly tyrannical, fitting for an Alpha Level Abnormality in terms of danger.

Looking at the latest news report, the incident of the man jumping off the building didn’t cause any ripple on the internet or media, as it involved an Abnormality. It merely floated by as a line of text beneath the news reports, and then there was no more follow-up.

Unfortunately, the Shadow still repeated that the sacrifices were insufficient.

Qin Muye wasn’t planning to eliminate evils for the people; he had already called the police. The Law Enforcers arrived quickly, and during their investigation, they had already rescued a twelve-year-old girl. Whether the businessman would be arrested was no longer Qin Muye’s concern.

Qin Muye hadn’t gone directly to the man’s company but had instead sneaked into his luxurious mansion.

Qin Muye was unconcerned because that apartment had been sealed off, reportedly for urban planning, implying demolition was imminent.

Qin Muye took a tour around and, aside from alcohol, found several people locked up.

Qin Muye suspected this guy just wanted to cheat him out of sacrifices. Otherwise, why would he keep the goods without doing the work?

Qin Muye felt he had discovered a loophole and then thought about how many stones and clay filled with twelve-year-old girl entries he would have to give if he wanted this wish machine to help him find the Emperor’s Nascent Soul?

The main principle of the All World Protector Organization was containment, so naturally, they would refrain from using it unless necessary.

The Shadow’s form gradually became more distinct, and it began speaking with a mesmerizing voice.

If none are available, they would have to look again for outstanding young individuals or, if necessary, check at schools.

If left unchecked, a containment breach could occur, bringing the female corpse back to life, causing men to jump off buildings again. This time it was an Alpha Level event, and it might lead a multitude of up to tens of thousands of men from the All World Protector Base to the building.

If his disguise wasn’t thorough and left any traces, he would be subjected to further surveillance.

The stones remained stones, only now they were imbued with entries.

Although the stones weren’t actual twelve-year-old girls, since they bore entries and were summoned, it meant they were accepted and not subjected to a price hike afterward.

Though he didn’t look like a Lamp God, at least he had a semblance of one, which could be used gradually.

Hence, by the end, he could only offer a single dollar.

So, of course, it had to be demolished quickly.

He wasn’t too worried about being found, after all, he had changed his appearance and aura. To use an Abnormality to find him, it would have to be an Alpha Level, but those were dangerous and not easily deployed.

Now, all males within the vicinity would be swept away.

Sacrificing himself was no big deal; Qin Muye dared to sacrifice believing the other party wouldn’t dare to accept, especially since his situation didn’t quite meet the requirements for a sacrifice. The basic condition for a sacrifice was a person, a criterion he couldn’t fulfill, so how could he satisfy the other party?

Even surveillance footage and the like had been tampered with by the All World Protector Organization, eliminating any imagery related to the Abnormality.

If they still couldn’t find someone, they would just have to slowly keep looking until they might find a suitable candidate.

Once a containment breach occurred, the danger was self-evident.

Due to interference from the All World Protector Organization, the process had been expedited. Whether it involved distributing money or arranging settlements, the building could be demolished within three days.

Once the stones bearing the entry of twelve-year-old girls were accepted, a spectral Shadow appeared.

After searching around, he finally found the entrance and directly climbed in.

Previously, such behavior would have seemed bizarre on Old Li, but as a member of the All World Protector Organization, it was natural to conclude from Old Li’s memorandum that Qin Muye had substantial knowledge about Abnormalities and might himself be one. Otherwise, he would have responded just like Old Li in such a situation.

But after changing his appearance, he walked boldly forward and was, of course, stopped. He produced his identity documents, and the checks concluded quickly.

They certainly couldn’t just drag him away for severe interrogation; that’s impossible, and the focus was mainly on verifying outward appearances.

Stepping out of the restaurant, numerous Law Enforcers were checking identities. Officially, they were pursuing a fugitive, but Qin Muye knew they were looking for him.
