Chapter Index

Mu Sichen, who had his eyes tightly closed, felt something gently caress his forehead.

 

A voice passed through his mind.

 

“You have fulfilled the agreement; do what you should do.”

 

The voice was familiar and majestic, and compared to the past, there was more of a hint of indifference and less of a hint of warmth.

 

It was as if the octopus doll’s human nature of being sleepy, gluttonous, fond of hiding things, bad-tempered, and immobile and aggrieved had disappeared without a trace with Qin Zu’s arrival.

 

Just as the pillar-level self sticker could purify Shen Jiyue’s contamination of him, with Qin Zu’s power, crushing his tiny self sticker was as easy as a slap in the face.

 

It was a matter of course.

 

Mu Sichen slowly opened his eyes; his left side was a blur, his field of vision was narrow, and only his right eye could see.

 

The sky had been completely covered up by Qin Zu’s power, and neither Big Eyes, Shen Jiyue, nor Qin Zu’s power would affect the residents of Pupil’s Town anymore.

 

Qin Zu was indeed humane.

 

Even in a god-level battle like this, He would still spare some of His strength to guard the humans, even if those people were nothing more than heretics outside of Xiangping Town to Qin Zu.

 

Mu Sichen struggled to get up and slowly came to the place where Yao Wangping had disappeared.

 

The totem on the ground had disappeared, leaving only half of the mechanical tentacles that had lost their lustre where Yao Wangping lay.

 

Mu Sichen picked up the mechanical tentacle; there was no more power or tattoos on it. Yao Wangping, as a part of humanity, had completely disappeared.

 

Yao Wangping followed through with his beliefs.

 

He was a terrible person, doing whatever it took to achieve his goal, with nothing in his eyes but Qin Zu and the mission. He would sacrifice anyone, including himself. He wouldn’t hesitate to lend a helping hand to others; he wouldn’t hesitate to take action against someone who had helped him; and he could also sacrifice his own companions in order to infiltrate the processing plant.

 

From the moment they met to Yao Wangping’s death, this man never wavered.

 

Mu Sichen didn’t agree with Yao Wangping until the end, and Yao Wangping didn’t need his approval.

 

Yao Wangping died with a smile on his face, and Mu Sichen was just a witness to the last part of his life.

 

Mu Sichen made a deep salute to the half-mechanical tentacle.

 

This was his tribute to life.

 

The other half of the mechanical arm that Mu Sichen had dug into still had strength, as did one side of the Feathered Eye dependent’s feathers.

 

Mu Sichen really didn’t have any more strength, he said softly, “Send me up.”

 

The feathered wing affixed itself behind Mu Sichen, the half of the machinery rolled him up, and the two together sent Mu Sichen into mid-air.

 

“Why do I have to touch the self totem so hard every time, can’t I just fly? Or can’t I use the power of the Self Totem with a single thought?” Mu Sichen whispered to himself.

 

When his palm touched the Self Totem, a map of Tongzhi Town appeared in his mind, the Self Totem on the side of the sanatorium was clearly visible, while in the far north, where the New Eye Library was located, it was pitch black.

 

Touching the Self Totem, Mu Sichen understood what to do.

 

He used the 36,700 points of hope energy that the townspeople of the sanatorium had provided him on the self totem and whispered, “Fusion.”

 

The self totems of the Processing Factory and the Sanatorium simultaneously released countless invisible threads, which connected together in the air and eventually covered all areas within Tongzhi Town except for the New Eye Library.

 

“Purify.” Mu Sichen said.

 

The two self totems simultaneously blossomed with light, and countless blood-red eyes surfaced within the Tongzhi Town, and these eyes immediately flew away when they encountered the self totem’s light.

 

Two “pillars” stood firmly on either side of the town, holding a field firmly in place.

 

“Exclude.” Mu Sichen said again.

 

Still using the power of the “pillars”, he excluded the heretics that couldn’t be purified from the domain.

 

[Congratulations to the player for completing Novice Quest 3, expelling the “Pupil of the Sky”, occupying the town of Tongzhi, and successfully obtaining a safe half domain.]

 

Mu Sichen opened the system panel and saw that the “Exit Game” button was lit up again, he couldn’t help but let out a sigh of relief and whispered, “It’s done.”

 

He controlled the feathered wing and mechanical tentacle to send himself back to the ground, and as soon as he landed, he laid down on the ground, not wanting to move a muscle.

 

Mu Sichen didn’t know how many other things were waiting for him to deal with here, and he didn’t dare to go offline for the time being.

 

At the same time, he didn’t really want to go offline either.

 

Mu Sichen had fought too badly in this battle, and both his body and spirit had suffered great damage.

 

He covered his lost left eye and didn’t know if this eye would recover when he returned to the real world.

 

But thinking about the deaths of those players, Mu Sichen felt that he probably wouldn’t be able to recover them.

 

But the system would definitely help him think of a reasonable reason for his blindness.

 

The sky was still foggy, and he didn’t know what kind of fight those three had gotten into or whether or not Qin Zu could win in the end.

 

After winning, would he occupy the half domain he just got?

 

Mu Sichen knew that Qin Zu was an evil god, had always been wary of him, and had never trusted him.

 

But the existence of the octopus doll made Mu Sichen feel a trace of humanity towards Qin Zu, and he felt that this evil god might not be so heartless and might be an evil god with humanity.

 

But Yao Wangping’s death shattered Mu Sichen’s naivety.

 

It was difficult for a god-level monster to leave its domain, and there was a price to pay for summoning one.

 

Yao Wangping was destined to become the medium, the sacrifice, for Qin Zu’s descent into Tongzhi Town, and Qin Zu knew it from the beginning and didn’t value Yao Wangping’s life much.

 

He was likewise a god who viewed humans as ants.

 

[Congratulations to the player for completing the three novice quests. The system has prepared a surprise reward for the player; the reward will be issued later.]

 

The system’s annoying voice was extremely clear, and sure enough, the problem of not being able to hear the system’s voice just now wasn’t with the system but with Mu Sichen himself.

 

This time’s experience let Mu Sichen know that there were roughly two types of contamination.

 

One was to directly withstand the power and spiritual pollution of a god-level monster, and if you couldn’t withstand it, you would directly collapse into a puddle of unidentified matter, and your soul would be absorbed by the monster; if you could withstand it, you would become insane and become a similar type of follower.

 

The other kind was silent pollution. Perhaps by accidentally seeing the totem of an evil god, perhaps by mentally and unconsciously identifying with the logic of a god, or perhaps by indirectly coming into contact with the thoughts and power of a god for some other reason, the spirit would slowly be eroded.

 

This kind of contamination was so silent that the person concerned wouldn’t even realise it, and would still think that everything he or she had done was right.

 

Under this kind of contamination, the person concerned would involuntarily do things in favour of the evil god without realising it, and would accept the power of the god little by little.

 

In the end, this kind of contamination would probably become a familiarity, that was, a person in the category of the Feathered Eyed dependent or Yao Wangping.

 

Mu Sichen had tried both kinds of contamination.

 

The former was looking straight at the big-eye and actively imprinting the big-eyed boy’s totem on his left eye within the sanatorium, this kind of contamination Mu Sichen was aware of and had been trying to fight against it.

 

The latter was Shen Jiyue’s silent pollution, and it deepened step by step. From looking at the mirror in the novice’s room to meeting Shen Jiyue within the sanatorium, every time he met Shen Jiyue, the contamination that Mu Sichen endured deepened.

 

Shen Jiyue had said that he wanted Mu Sichen to become His dependent, and He had meant it.

 

If it wasn’t for the fact that the big-eye’s attraction to Shen Jiyue far exceeding Mu Sichen’s, allowing Shen Jiyue to appear within Tongzhi Town, Mu Sichen still wouldn’t have realised that he had been contaminated.

 

Thanks to Mu Sichen being among the pillars, both instances of pollution were purified by the power of the pillars.

 

The “novice” mission issued by the system to him, every time was like walking on a tightrope, a little carelessness would make him fall into the abyss.

 

 

So far, the system’s purpose was unknown, but it was still on Mu Sichen’s side.

 

But what was frightening was that it seemed like whether it was Qin Zu or Shen Jiyue, He could detect the existence of the system.

 

The octopus doll didn’t feel surprised when it followed him to the real world.

 

He knew that another world existed!

 

This gave Mu Sichen the creeps.

 

He was tired and his body sank, and his entire being seemed to be plunged into endless darkness.

 

At this time, two voices came.

 

“Captain Mu, you made it!”

“I’ve retrieved my barrow as well!”

 

Chi Lian and Cheng Xubo both shouted as they ran, they came to Mu Sichen’s side and helped him up.

 

“Why aren’t you guys offline?” Mu Sichen asked with his eyes closed.

 

“I was waiting for us to go offline together, just in case there are still some tasks that have not been completed.” Cheng Xubo leaned Mu Sichen against himself, making him sit more comfortably.

 

“Last time, I was so anxious that I couldn’t control myself to press the offline button when I saw it and left you here, it’s really a bit unrighteous.” Chi Lian got wet wipes from somewhere and wiped Mu Sichen’s blood-covered face.

 

As she wiped, Chi Lian’s hand stopped.

 

“Your eyes…” wiping off the blood stains, Chi Lian saw that Mu Sichen’s left eye was obviously different from his right eye.

 

Mu Sichen smiled somewhat embarrassedly, raised his hand to cover his left eye, and said with a sideways glance, “Stealing someone else’s ability caused retribution.”

 

“Nonsense, it’s not like you intentionally stole it!” Chi Lian said it with a sobbing voice.

 

Cheng Xubo saw Mu Sichen’s eyes and also said worriedly, “Is there any way to recover? Doesn’t the system give a healing miracle medicine?”

 

There was a surprise reward, but Mu Sichen didn’t think it was to heal his eyes, so he shook his head.

 

Chi Lian cried for a while, then stared at the feathered wing behind Mu Sichen.

 

She stepped forward and touched the feathered wings that were covered in eyes.

 

“What are you doing?” Mu Sichen vaguely felt as if Chi Lian had some horrible solution.

 

“Do you think I could cut and paste the eyes on this for you?” Chi Lian poked an eyeball, which was still flexible.

 

“Better not.” Mu Sichen hastily yanked off the feather and tossed it aside.

 

In fact, under the purification of the self-totem, the contamination on the feathered wing had already been dispelled, and that power to ki-ll someone by sight was gone, leaving only the ability to fly.

 

It could actually be used.

 

 

It was just that Mu Sichen was a bit resistant.

 

“This is a way,” Cheng Xubo said, “but using the eyes on this is a bit scary. How about this? Use mine. Although my eyes are more than half smaller than Captain Mu’s, highly myopic, with astigmatism, and a bit of vitreous clouding, it’s better than nothing.”

 

 

“It’s just a matter of cutting the eyeball; Mu Sichen’s eye sockets are already large, and aesthetics don’t depend on the eyeballs; they depend on the sockets. I think it’s feasible; it’s just that the quality isn’t very good.” Chi Lian also said it seriously.

 

Mu Sichen: “What are you guys kidding about?”

 

“It’s not a joke,” Cheng Xubo said seriously, “You have helped us so many times, and this time you’re the one facing the danger, we can’t seem to help, so it’s not a problem to treat your injuries. And I’m not very attached to these eyeballs, I’ll give you the eyeball, and then let Chi Lian replace it with the eyeball on the feathers, maybe my high myopia will be cured!”

 

“If it does get cured, I’ll replace the other one for you too.” Chi Lian added.

 

“Makes sense, otherwise it’s hard to see things differently with two eyes.” Cheng Xubo said.

 

The two discussed the topic in a tone of learning and exploration.

 

Their chat was simply hard to listen to, but it gradually restored Mu Sichen’s extremely tired spirit.

 

He knew Cheng Xubo was serious.

 

These two wanted to heal his eye and even wanted to use theirs, if Mu Sichen’s eyes couldn’t be restored, Cheng Xubo would really give him his own eye.

 

“Alright, we can try.” Mu Sichen said.

 

Anyway, he had already built a town in the weird world, brought back the god’s puppet to the dormitory and nearly contaminated his housemate, so it wasn’t too bad to replace his eyes.

 

Something was better than nothing.

 

“Is it trying mine?” Cheng Xubo pointed at himself and said.

 

“Try the one on the feather,” Mu Sichen said in a bad mood, “I have normal eyesight, I can’t be nearsighted!”

 

Cheng Xubo touched his eyes, “Well, I still want to try to see if I can cure my eyes with this method.”

 

Listening to the tone of voice there was still a bit of regret.

 

Chi Lian took out scissors, cut off an eyeball, peeled open Mu Sichen’s eye socket and put it in.

 

“Don’t worry, after you complete the mission, I will upgrade, I now have 3000 energy value. It should not use your energy ……”

 

Chi Lian’s words were only half spoken when she let out an “eek”.

 

“Huh? The system suggests that Life Connection Class Paste belongs to Pillar Level Skills and I need to borrow power from a Pillar Level teammate. I’m only level 9, pillar level is level 10, I can’t use my energy value. Life class pasting requires 2000 energy value, Captain Mu …… do you still have enough energy? If it’s enough, lend me some.” Chi Lian said embarrassedly.

 

Mu Sichen rose to level 15, and with the upgrade, the energy value was replenished, and the highest value reached 10,000, so it wasn’t too bad to use 2,000 points.

 

“Borrow it borrow it.” Mu Sichen nodded.

 

Only then did Chi Lian stick the eyeball into Mu Sichen’s eye sockets.

 

Mu Sichen blinked, and his left eye vision returned.

 

The vision was all normal, except that the new eye’s vision seemed to be a little better than his original one, and he could see things more clearly.

 

Chi Lian said, “Ouch, I chose the wrong eye, the pupil colour of this eye seems to be a bit dark blue, I couldn’t tell before, but after putting together with your eye, it’s a bit different, should I change it again?”

 

“No need.” Mu Sichen took out his mobile phone, opened the selfie mode and looked at it, “It won’t be focused on, so this is quite good.”

 

“Okay, it’s pretty good. It adds a bit of mystery, you’ve become even more handsome!” Chi Lian patted Mu Sichen’s shoulder.

 

Cheng Xubo stared at the feathered eyes for a while, but in the end, he didn’t have the courage to give up his original eyes and gave up.

 

However, he instructed Mu Sichen, “Captain, put this feather away, we’ll keep it as a spare.”

 

Under his eager eyes, Mu Sichen put all the half of the mechanical arm and the feathered wing into the system backpack.

 

 

Chi Lian said, “We had just fought the followers to exhaustion, and after you seized the pillar, the followers quickly became docile, as if the mental pollution had been purified by you. Now they’re obedient, I’ve asked them to take food and first distribute it per head to the people in the sanatorium who have been starving all day.”

 

Cheng Xubo: “You’ve already gained half the domain, right, which means that half of this town is free to move around. But I think that instead of teaching the townspeople how to live from hand to mouth, we should guide, make some suggestions, and let them build their own system that suits them better.”

 

Chi Lian: “I’ll have to do a census to see how many townspeople there are in half the domain, what they’re good at, and assign each one to a suitable position.”

 

Cheng Xubo: “Establish a point system based on the total amount of food available, there is a scarcity of supplies in the early stages of development, so we can use points for food first.”

 

The two of them spoke one after the other, but they had a plan on how the town would develop in the future.

 

Chi Lian and Cheng Xubo were originally social elites, and within three days of resting, Chi Lian had already shown her amazing mobility and ability to gather information.

 

Mu Sichen temporarily refrained from thinking about the town’s situation and left these matters to the two.

 

Just as the three of them were discussing the development of the town, the obscured sky cracked open a slit.

 

A bright thing fell out of the slit.

 

Mu Sichen stretched out his hand, and the object naturally landed in his palm, a pair of very beautiful golden glasses.

 

[Congratulations to the player for obtaining the special reward, the legacy of the “Pupil of the Sky”, surprised?]

 

It wasn’t really a surprise.

 

Mu Sichen looked at the glasses.

 

Since it was a legacy, it meant that the Big Eye had disappeared.

 

The god-ranked monster that had caused them so much trouble had just become a legacy.

 

It was unknown whether Qin Zu had won or Shen Jiyue had won.

 

Mu Sichen boldly raised his head to look at the sky, which was covered in stars, except for the lack of a moon, it was the same as a normal sky.

 

Qin Zu and Shen Jiyue were gone.

 

Mu Sichen put on his glasses, as if he had used VR glasses, a picture appeared in front of his eyes.

 

The eyes, the moon, and the humanoid shadow were at w-ar, and the humanoid shadow had an overwhelming advantage, the moon and the eyes were not His foes at all.

 

But the moon seems to have a certain attraction to the eye, he swallowed half of the eye, and decisively fell into the crescent moon library.

 

With the protection of the “pillar”, the humanoid shadow was unable to catch the moon for a while.

 

Therefore, countless tentacle-like things were born behind the humanoid shadow, they wrapped the remaining half of the eye, and also left.

 

Only one pair of glasses fell from the air, and was caught by Mu Sichen.
