Welcome to Rewind World Game-Chapter 874 - 871: ’The Cat and Her.

"My daughter’s name is Shanshan, she is three and a half years old." The man’s voice sounded.

"She is the cutest little angel in the world. I wish I could give everything to her."

"Sugar, milk, cream, she likes everything sweet. After my wife passed away, I learned how to bake cakes. Whenever Shanshan wants to eat, I would make cakes for her."

"She likes to run in the fields, so wherever it was, I would take her there."

The scene shifts.

The black mist spread endlessly from the edge of the vision, engulfing the tone in darkness.

"But that year, humanity suddenly lost 80% of its land, the black mist engulfed my hometown." The man’s voice turned somber:

"Shanshan was covered by the black mist while escaping, and contracted the Black Mist Disease."

"This is a prevalent disease. As the black mist polluted the atmosphere and water sources, even in safe areas, one may unknowingly contract this disease."

In the white hospital room, the little girl lay on the hospital bed eating a cream cake, suddenly coughing up blood.

Black tendrils emerged from her mouth, the man quickly cut them off, but couldn’t stop the increasing black patterns on her skin.

"Daddy, it hurts! It hurts so much!" The little girl cried, the man stood by the bed, helpless.

He held the gradually darkening little girl, sobbing, his fingers clenching tighter.

"I don’t know what to do. Human medical standards cannot heal this disease." The man’s voice:

"It’s like a chronic corrosion, the Black Mist Disease slowly robs a person of their sanity, their limbs, eventually turning them into a creature full of tendrils... like those invaded by exotic species. The entire process is terrifying, disgusting, pessimistic, and despairing."

"I originally wanted to spend Shanshan’s last days with her. Even if she would eventually die, I wanted to leave her last beautiful memories in these remaining few months. I wanted to tell her, no matter what she becomes, Daddy will be with you, even if you become dangerous."

"Moreover, there were those with mild symptoms who recovered before, I hoped that under my care, she could gradually recover."

"But..."

The scene gradually transitions, a group of people dressed in church white robes rushed into the ward.

"Daddy! Daddy!" The girl screamed.

"What are you doing! Let go of my daughter!" The man was pushed against the wall, hitting his head, bleeding profusely.

The Church people looked down at the man with pity in their eyes.

They said, his daughter could mutate at any moment. They would help deal with her.

"Who needs you to help! I know my daughter’s situation, it’s far from that level, I had an agreement with her that at the final moment, I will help her end it! I don’t need you!" The man shouted, his head full of blood, his face flushed with anger, but was pinned to the ground by the church members: "Let go of my daughter! Let her go! She’s still a living person! You—"

The scene turned into bright red.

Pulsing, vibrant, endlessly burning red.

——The little girl was burnt alive.

Flames filled the man’s vision, her last screams echoed incessantly in his mind, becoming his nightmare when he wakes in the night.

He was pinned to the ground, watching helplessly as the fiery mass slowly subsided. The Church members released him with satisfaction, discussing the recent shamans, planning to report this perfectly completed task to their revered Deity.

The half-eaten cream cake sat by the bed, a few burnt strands of hair dotted on the cream, accentuating the pure white.

"Daddy, where will we go in the future?"

"Daddy, why do we have to leave our hometown?"

"Daddy, it hurts, Daddy, Daddy...!!"

His child was dragged out and burnt alive.

He watched her roll and struggle in the flames, the flickering firelight reflected on the Church members’ sacred white robes, clearly a pure white color, yet he saw Hell.

After the Church members left, he held his daughter’s remains and looked up, suddenly seeing the conscription notice on the windowsill:

[The Human Self-Rescue Alliance is recruiting!]

[As long as you provide five people eligible for combat, you can become a small team captain of the Human Self-Rescue Alliance! The more people you provide, the higher the status granted!]

[The Human Self-Rescue Alliance has mastered ’resurrection’ technology, successfully helping hundreds of people who lost their families to regain new life!]

[The Alliance Hierarch will resolutely resist the Deity, kill Destiny!]

At this moment, he suddenly knew what he had to do.

"Daddy is going to a place you can’t see, Daddy is going to join this alliance." He whispered, stroking her charred bones:

"... Daddy knows how to fight against this damn world now..."

"Humans have completely gone mad, so to survive, the only way is to..."

"Go mad lucidly, plunder with laughter, shoot numbly, live absurdly."

...

The illusion ended, Su Ming’an stepped back, his mind full of the man’s memories and emotions before death.

He glanced at the system time, only three seconds had passed.

Sure enough, in the Tenth World, killing a person allows him to gain the memories of the person’s life. He felt another white light point appear in his mind, lined up with Liu Xuanxuan’s light point from before. As long as he focused, he could review the entire life of this person.

"Ding dong!"

The system notification sound rang.

Su Ming’an was silent for a moment and closed this interface.

The principal rushed over, saying that the bodies of these soldiers would be sent back to the government.

With the principal’s approval, Su Ming’an’s strength was kept secret. Otherwise, he would easily be targeted by the government forces. No one asked him why he suddenly became so strong, because there was only one way to get stronger—enduring the pain of mental collapse and constantly practicing talismans.

Su Ming’an proposed going to the school library, and the principal agreed.

"Make sure to be home by eight tonight," Teacher Xia instructed.

Su Ming’an entered the library and learned the three simplest talismans. The talismans in the library were not high level, very basic.

...

...

At 7 pm, Su Ming’an finished learning three talismans and left the library.

The city at night was very quiet. Suddenly, a sharp sound rang out, somewhat like a whistle, with blue-green light blooming in mid-air.

A monster with a fish face and human body crawled across the road, leaving a trail of water stains; strange birds circled in the sky like illusions made of blue-green fluorescence. Flowing tentacles hung upside down in the sky like black-green waves.

Su Ming’an walked out of the library and looked up to see these bizarre scenes. As soon as it was nighttime, it was the time for "anomalies" to rampage.

The phone rang. Su Ming’an looked at it; the caller was displayed as [Moon (Note: Godfather)].

... Godfather?

Previously, Su Ming’an found this note strange. The original owner clearly had Oriental features, yet there was a Godfather? But this world was a blend of Eastern and Western styles, with Eastern talismans and Western churches. Having a Godfather wasn’t impossible.

... Wait, could this Godfather be Boris?

Su Ming’an answered the phone but didn’t speak.

There was silence on the other end for a full ten seconds.

Su Ming’an also remained silent, waiting for the other side to speak first.

A moment later, the other party spoke in a voice as cool as jade beads:

"...Wensheng, why didn’t you greet me today?"

Su Ming’an was slightly taken aback; the Godfather’s voice seemed a bit familiar.

After three seconds of waiting, the other side spoke again: "Not speaking? Is the dream patrol too exhausting?" ƒreewebηoveℓ.com

"No," Su Ming’an replied.

"Come to the church tomorrow morning; I want to see you, Wensheng." The other end hung up the phone.

Su Ming’an stared at the dark screen of the phone. Just from these few words, he could not confirm whether the other party was a player; he’d have to wait until the next morning.

Exiting the school gate, he found a girl sitting under the ginkgo tree at the gate.

Su Luoluo leaned her back against the trunk, her short black hair slantingly covering her brow and eyes, her eyelids closed, already asleep beneath the tree.

Moonlight spilled from the blue-green night sky like polar region auroras, enveloping her slender figure. Her head rested against the trunk, chin slightly lifted, with a luminous sheen across her pale face, making her look even more unnaturally white.

She slept lightly, and just as Su Ming’an approached, she startled awake like a fluffed-up cat, instinctively showing fear in her eyes, but immediately regaining calm upon seeing Su Ming’an.

"You’re done with school?" Su Luoluo rubbed her eyes. "You’re so late today."

"I remember I texted you, saying I would stay in the library for a while, so you didn’t have to wait for me," Su Ming’an said. Judging by this, Su Luoluo had waited for several hours.

"Let’s go home and play games." Su Luoluo didn’t respond to his words, just chuckled and shifted the topic.

She walked ahead, the hot wind filled with the smell of gunpowder ruffling her short black hair. She moved past broken bricks and human corpses, stepping on the moonlight like nimble drumbeats.

This scene was filled with a sense of absurdity. The fragile girl blended with the grim and terrifying war scene, walking past human white skeletons as if strolling through fields of golden wheat.

"Why don’t we stream the ’The Cat and Her’ game tonight?" Su Luoluo said with her hands behind her back. "Although ’The Cat and Her’ has been completely cleared by someone, time still moves in the game, and the audience loves watching it. I am a rookie streamer with only 1,000 fans. To gain more fans, I should stream something popular with the masses."

"What about ’Louyue Nation’ game’s [Chapter Two]?" Su Ming’an said. "It’s better to stream this, it’s popular now."

"Eh?" Su Luoluo turned to look at Su Ming’an. "Little Cloud, did you forget? Even if the new Chapter is open, you can only play it at midnight."

"Is that so?" Su Ming’an had only noticed the option to "open Chapter Two" and didn’t pay attention to whether it could be played once opened.

"The Union Government still hasn’t found out who the first Dream Patrol Family is." Su Luoluo mumbled, "If they really find out, who knows if it’s a blessing or a curse."

They walked through the desolate streets towards home.

Suddenly, Su Ming’an sensed a strange energy wave. He reached out, suddenly grabbing Su Luoluo’s shoulder and pulling her back.

"Boom!"

Directly in front of him, a black pit was suddenly blasted by an energy bomb. If he hadn’t yanked Su Luoluo away, she would have been dead.

Under the pale moonlight, the pit was unfathomably deep, an abyss at first glance. Su Luoluo’s face turned ghastly white, her eyes fixed on the pit in front of her.

"How could someone dare to attack the Dream Patrol Family! Little Cloud, run!" Su Luoluo tugged at Su Ming’an.

Su Ming’an didn’t move, just pressed Su Luoluo’s shoulder, keeping her calm.

"Swish swish—"

A gust of wind.

On the wall, a girl covered in blue-purple tentacles stood on one foot, bathed in blue-green fluorescence. Her rose-colored hair fluttered in the wind, her hands and neck covered with writhing tentacles, only her smooth face exposed, revealing a strikingly beautiful visage.

The girl reached out, a blue-green halo flickering in her palm. Su Luoluo’s eyes rolled back, and she fainted.

Su Ming’an immediately supported Su Luoluo.

"Don’t worry, I just put her to sleep. So she won’t hear our conversation." The girl laughed:

"I thought your reclusion was a lie, but now it seems it was true. Even for an ordinary girl who can’t hurt a fly, you’re still soft-hearted enough to protect her."

The girl exuded an intimidating aura, and Su Ming’an could feel her formidable strength; she was like a majestic mountain standing before him.

"Who are you?" Su Ming’an asked.

The red-haired girl was taken aback, then giggled: "Alliance Hierarch. Are you playing the memory loss game again? I’m Xin Yue, the second legion commander of the Human Self-Rescue Alliance. I’m here to relay a message from Deputy Legion Leader Li Yanghao. He asked me to inquire if, since the first Chapter of the Louyue Nation game has been cleared by an anonymous Dream Patrol Family, you want to issue an order to find out the real-world identity of that first Dream Patrol Family?"

... What?

Su Ming’an calmly asked, "What did you call me?"

The red-haired girl jumped off the wall, blinked her eyes with an innocent face, and said, "Alliance Hierarch."

She leaned in front of Su Ming’an, looking at his face, and called out several times with repetition: "Alliance Hierarch, Alliance Hierarch, how many times do I have to call you before you hear me?"
