Who could have thought that he’d suddenly turn up here?
Finally… three minutes later.
Chen Yi, observing from a God-like perspective and without a physical form, raised his arm to wipe away the nonexistent sweat on his forehead, took several deep breaths, and then allowed Wen Ping to enter the community.
Following that…
He saw Wen Ping take a pistol out of his chest pocket, hide it in his sleeve, and walk directly to the entrance of Building No. 8, Unit 1, with a clear target in mind.
Then he climbed up the stairs to the 16th floor.
Standing at the door to 1602, he took out a long piece of wire, bent it into the shape of a ‘7’, then used a pick to pry the cat-eye viewer from the security door. He inserted the wire through the cat-eye hole, jiggling it tentatively a couple of times before applying slight force.
The security door was successfully unlocked.
Effortlessly.
Chen Yi, observing everything from a God-like perspective, was somewhat speechless. You even have this skill? Were you a locksmith before the game began?
Under Chen Yi’s control, the woman in black stockings from the daytime was currently sleeping in the bedroom, utterly unaware of the commotion outside.
…
“Ah!!”
The woman’s scream suddenly erupted as the man she had met during the day was now coldly holding a pistol to her forehead, greedily looking her over with eyes like a starving wolf.
“What the hell are you doing!!”
Chen Yi projected his consciousness into the woman’s body and bellowed out the question, aiming for authenticity.
But what came next…
Wen Ping was much rougher than he had imagined, not even bothering to remove his clothes. He slapped the woman, cursed her as a “fucking bitch,” and then began.
“What the hell are you doing!!!”
“My father is…”
…
Chen Yi, from his God-like perspective, was staring blankly at some void, his mouth slowly opening and closing.
He had never done something so disgusting in his life.
Never!
He had projected his consciousness into the woman, and Wen Ping was… This made him feel like he was the victim!!!
Though there was no physical sensation, no touch!!
Yet the words the woman was speaking were controlled by him, and this eerie sense of embodiment made his stomach acid churn!
In his entire life!
He had never exerted so much effort, felt so wronged by killing someone!!!
It was utterly outrageous!!!
…
“Uh…”
On Blue Star, in the Wasteland,
Tuberculosis Rabbit was sitting on a chair in front of the barbecue grill, meticulously turning the skewers for even cooking, glanced up at the twilight sky, then looked at Chen Yi who still stood motionless next to him and spoke with a slight sense of emotion.
“Yi, you’ve really had it tough. All these days, you haven’t moved an inch.”
“It’s already January 2.”
“The new year has come. The New Year’s Eve event is over, but Yi still hasn’t responded.”
“Wait a minute!”
Just then, Tuberculosis Rabbit noticed that Yi’s expression was the same, and after hesitating for a while, said, “Yi, doesn’t your face look a bit off, as if you’ve encountered something really disgusting and distressing?”
He had lived with Yi for a long time, and in most cases, Yi was quite good at controlling his emotions.
He had hardly ever seen Yi with this kind of expression.
He didn’t know what had happened in the Illusory Realm to make Yi have such an expression.
“It must be because he hasn’t eaten for several days and looks bitter.”
“But it’s not a problem. Although the December rule ‘Do As One Pleases’ has ended, and players can no longer be invincible, Chen Yi definitely won’t die from other causes before the duel ends, so there’s no need to worry about that.”
“That’s not the important thing, the important thing is…”
Sword Without End, standing beside with a complicated expression, spoke up, “The rule for January seems to be about to crush Yi.”
On January 1, just after midnight, the version had been updated.
Indeed, just as the update had forecasted, the rule change in January introduced an element of gaining a head start, and it was bluntly called just that – “Gaining a Head Start”.
New January rule “Gaining a Head Start”.
“Gaining a Head Start”: To succeed, a slow bird must start flying early. In January, all players will be ranked in real-time according to their monthly step counts.
The players in the middle of the pack will see no difference.
Players who rank higher will experience reduced gravity from Earth’s core as they climb in rank, making their movements lighter and their jumps higher.
Conversely, players at the lower end of the rankings will face increasing gravitational pull as their rank drops, making them feel heavier, their movements slower, and their ability to move more difficult.

And, the sudden changes in gravity won’t cause accidents due to differences in players’ physical fitness.
Hmm.
This is the rule for January.
Simply put, it’s a global WeChat exercise ranking: the more you walk, the lighter you feel; on the contrary, the less you walk, the heavier you become.
A patch was also added to prevent people with poor physical fitness from being crushed to death by a sudden surge in gravity.
Since Yi had been standing motionless here since December 28th, he naturally ranked last in the global “Gaining a Head Start Leaderboard”.
The effect was as follows.
Yi’s body had already sunk two to three meters into the ground.
It was like steel rods placed on quicksand, sinking gradually downward.
The sight was somewhat horrifying.
This was a consequence of excessive gravity, causing the body to become very heavy.
They did try to lift Yi out of the deep pit; there were three other human-shaped deep pits nearby. They had pulled him out three times already, but he kept falling back in, so they were preparing to find a huge steel plate for Yi to stand on.
Otherwise, his legs would bore into the earth like probe heads, straight down towards its core.
“Sigh.”
Tuberculosis Rabbit sighed helplessly and said, “This doesn’t affect much, but I wonder when Yi will finish. I thought he’d just need to wait patiently after setting up the Illusory Realm.”
“Who knew he would stay inside the entire time.”
“Is it really that complicated?”
“Should be over soon, I guess,” Sword Without End added uncertainly.
“Let’s hope so.”
Tuberculosis Rabbit shook his head, “If he doesn’t come out soon, this damn Novice Period will be over.”
…
Meanwhile, inside the Illusory Realm.
Wen Ping had finally finished.
Chen Yi, with a pallor of death and a clouded mind, breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing Wen Ping finally wrap things up. He was just about to make this woman say something ruthless when he saw Wen Ping pull out his gun, draw another from his chest, and without hesitation, shoot the woman in the forehead.
“Bang!”
The sound of the gunshot rang out.
The woman in black stockings lay forever in a pool of blood.
Chen Yi felt even more relieved; this was better, as he wouldn’t even have to think of any last words.
It was time to get back to the script, head back to the hotel as quickly as possible. He’d send her one last dream tonight; when the woman showed up for the blind date tomorrow, a sweet and romantic love drama would begin.
Don’t go off track again.
However—
What happened next left Chen Yi, observing from a god-like perspective, silently motionless with an expressionless face.
Wen Ping, gun in hand, didn’t hesitate for a second before walking out of the Meimiao Community and heading toward the community of his second blind date of the day.
It was clear he intended to repeat the same strategy.
“What does this mean?”
“Does it mean I have to replay this scene three or four more times??!”
“Damn!”
Chen Yi, viewing from a god-like perspective, finally lost his composure and became visibly angry. What did they take him for, a doll in a box?
He was the planner!
He wasn’t here to play this game.
