I went berserk in the game of gods.

Chapter 165 My Damn Sense of Justice
Xu Yueluo's super magical artifact is indeed powerful.

Often, Cao Yu would overlook the fact that her superpower was number 68.

Just like An Li's number 66, it belongs to the developmental type of ability, leaning towards "all-rounder".

Xu Yueluo is more developed than An Li.

The "Nezha-style" super-powered magical artifact she carries can even interfere with spacetime.

In the previous instance, one of the reasons why the three sisters lost to him so quickly after combining their powers was that he used the "Life-Slaying Curse" from the very beginning without regard for the cost.

The second reason is that their evolution level is only 31%.

As fellow D-level players, to be able to put up even a few blows against someone like him, who is ranked 11th, would be considered a sign of great strength.

Putting aside the top ten superpowers, he is undoubtedly number one, and he deserves that much respect.

Cao Yu fiddled with the delicate little mirror in his hand, and tried connecting it to the communication channel provided by the "Mirror of Evil":

'Hello……'

'Brother, I'm here.'

Xu Yueluo replied.

Cao Yu continued to chat with the others for a few more minutes and found that the way he used the small mirror was somewhat similar to his usual communication pattern with Xiao Qi.

He turned his gaze to Xu Yuexuan and asked:
"Immortal player, do you have any secret methods for transmitting your voice?"

"Yes, brother."

Xu Yuelu answered on behalf of Xu Yuexuan:
"Not only immortal players, but players from all three paths who reach the C-level actually have the basic ability to transmit privately."

Immortal players rely on released Qi, Superman players rely on extraordinary energy, and Subhuman players rely on wind.

However, all three methods require dedicated practice. Although they are only basic skills, they cannot be used effectively without practice.

"Demi-humans rely on the wind...Demi-human players can control the wind once they reach C-rank?" Cao Yu asked curiously.

He knows very little about demi-human players and has never paid special attention to them until now.

"It's not really about control. In addition to awakening natural characteristics and becoming closer to nature, C-rank demi-human players will also have a significantly enhanced ability to control themselves."

Xu Yuechu, a player specializing in demi-human characters, spoke from an "expert" perspective:
"With such subtle control and a close connection to nature, one can instinctively interfere with the air surrounding them. However, these are all minor interferences with a negligible range of influence."

She waved her hand:

"For example, the wind blade attack formed by compressed air cannot be achieved by relying solely on instinctive intervention; one must possess specialized abilities to manipulate the natural characteristics of wind."

However, the simple technique of 'riding the wind' to turn air from an obstacle into an aid during rapid movement is still feasible.

Control is a crucial ability for demi-human players during their evolution, and it's key to advancing to A-rank.

Because it was a digression, Xu Yuechu only mentioned it briefly and didn't go into detail.

Cao Yu did not pursue the matter further at this time.

After verifying the mental communication channel of the exquisite little mirror and finding no problems, the group of five left the restaurant's private room and, led by Xu Yueluo, took a taxi to a building located in the eastern suburbs of Beast Hunting City.

After entering through a small side door of the building, the five people arrived at an underground bar.

Because it wasn't night yet, there weren't many customers in the bar, only a few scattered individuals.

Xu Yueluo took out a card the size of a playing card and handed it to the waiter.

The waiter understood and opened a hidden door on the left wall, leading the five of them to a private room.

There were people waiting in the private room.

He's not an ordinary person, but a D-level player with a rooster-comb hairstyle.

The man with the rooster-like haircut glanced at Cao Yu and his group of five, then his gaze lingered on the three Xu sisters and Shen Luoyan, a slow smile playing on his lips.

Just as he was about to whistle and make a few teasing remarks, Xu Yueluo raised the evil mirror in her hand and let a beam of light shine on it.

The rooster-like man, whose head was illuminated by the light, quickly became dull-eyed, turning into a puppet that could only obey orders.

"Give us the things," Xu Yueluo said.

The man with the rooster-like haircut did not resist and activated the 3D projection device in the private room, bringing up five documents, each corresponding to one of the five people.

Xu Yueluo said to Cao Yu and the others:

“These five people are on the invitation list for tonight’s ‘Red Beauty Banquet.’ We just need to take their place and sneak into the banquet according to the plan.”

Cao Yu asked, "These five people have been killed?"

"As expected of my brother, his first reaction was to kill someone," Xu Yueluo praised.

Cao Yu: "..."

Xu Yueluo looked at the man with the rooster-like haircut and asked, "Is he still there?"

“Still here,” the man with the rooster-like hair replied. “We only sell information; we don’t handle the people involved.”

He turned to the second page of the document and reminded him:

"This is their schedule for the next few days. If you want to impersonate them and sneak into the banquet, you'll have to deal with them yourselves."

"You bastard! This is nothing like what we agreed on!" Xu Yuechu immediately flew into a rage: "You took the money and didn't do the job?!"

Before the man with the rooster-like haircut could reply, Cao Yu asked, "How much did you pay for this intelligence?"

"It didn't cost any money, it was free."

Xu Yuechu pointed to the Mirror of Misfortune in Xu Yueluo's hand and said:
"With this thing around, only an idiot would spend money to buy intelligence! We're just double-crossing each other."

However... although it was a case of double-crossing, the group was unaware of it due to psychological interference.

From their perspective, we were there to discuss business in a legitimate way, and they dared to rip off our legitimate clients… I really want to beat the hell up!

Cao Yu: "..."

It seems that this wasn't the first time the three Xu sisters had done something like this. In just two days, they found a way and got the "tickets"... Cao Yu only saw two words—skilled!
At times, he had doubts—whether he was too virtuous and not suited to make a living in the City of No Return.
"It seems we'll have to split up from now on," Shen Luoyan said, looking at the data. "These five people have different schedules, so we'll have to go and cover for them separately. By the way, how accurate is the intelligence?"

"I have investigated the forces that sold the list, and its authenticity is not in question."

Xu Yueluo explained:

"The list of participants for the Crimson Banquet was only leaked in the last two banquets, and it hasn't attracted the attention of the Li Ren family yet. We were lucky to arrive this time. If we had come any later, it probably wouldn't have worked."

"It's getting late, let's head out and get the replacement done." Cao Yu pointed to a man with a middle-part hairstyle in the file and said, "I'll replace him."

Shen Luoyan and the other three quickly selected their targets.

After the selection, Xiao Chen thoughtfully helped Cao Yu complete the appearance change ahead of time.

In terms of disguise, her superpower is quite reliable.

With this disguise, even if the people at Red Beauty Manor stood guard at the entrance and used B-grade items to verify the visitor's identity, they wouldn't be able to find anything wrong with him.

On the other side, Xu Yueluo used the Mirror of Misfortune to implant false memories into the rooster-headed man, concealing their actions.

The five then left the underground bar and went their separate ways.

……

Beast Hunting City, East District.

A private aircraft is flying along a low-altitude path towards the eastern suburbs where the Red Beauty Manor is located.

The interior of the aircraft was luxuriously decorated, with wine cabinets, a bar, and vintage sofas. A bartender in a suit poured red wine for Singh, and the rich aroma filled the air.

Singh brought the wine glass to his nose and smelled it, a look of enjoyment on his face.

“Mr. Singh, we still have half an hour to go. Would you like to order something first?” the bartender asked.

"no need."

Singh took a sip of red wine, put down his glass, and said with a smirk:

"I need to save my 'appetite' to savor the 'deliciousness' at the Red Banquet."

"Sir, please allow me to ask a presumptuous question: what exactly are the delicacies served at the Red Banquet?"

Unable to suppress his curiosity, the bartender couldn't help but ask:
“You’ve participated twice now. Each time you return, I can see the deep sense of nostalgia in your expression…” “Don’t pry into things you shouldn’t!” Singh’s face turned icy. “Considering you’ve followed me for so many years, I’ll let it go this time. Remember, the more you know, the faster you die.”

“…Excuse me, sir.” The bartender quickly replied, “I’ll remember.”

Why are you hiding it? Tell us!

A third voice suddenly rang out inside the aircraft.

Singh and the bartender were startled and simultaneously looked towards the other end of the sofa.

Suddenly, a figure appeared there—a figure whose appearance, temperament, and spirit were exactly the same as Singh's.

When... spatial transfer!?

The next second, bright red flowers appeared inside the aircraft, quickly turning the surrounding area into part of a sea of ​​flowers.

These enchanting flowers bloomed in profusion, resembling clusters of flames, and a strange fragrance wafted through the air.

At the same time, Cao Yu activated the "Life-Slaying Curse," preventing Singh from using defensive items to resist.

Upon smelling the flowers, Singh and the bartender stopped their resistance and quickly became expressionless.

Their minds were controlled.

The second person sitting on the sofa, Singh—also known as Cao Yu—fiddled with the flower petal hair clip in his hand, somewhat surprised by the effect of the B-grade item "Manjusaka" on mental interference.

It can be said to have an immediate effect.

According to the information provided by the rooster-headed player, Singh is a C-level immortal player, whose mental resistance is stronger than the other two types of players.

As a result, they were subdued in a single encounter.

You really do get what you pay for.

Cao Yu put the flower petal hair clip away.

This was his third time using a B-grade item, and the consumption was as high as when he used "Turning Stone into Gold" before.

As he drank a bottle of mental recovery potion, he inquired about Singh's questions regarding the Red Banquet.

Once under control, Singh honestly answered all the questions.

"The Crimson Banquet, as its name suggests, focuses on the word 'red' and is primarily for entertainment and enjoyment... From what I understand, the Li Ren family is indeed secretly capturing demi-human players. They are conducting experiments, but I don't have the authority to access the specifics. I only know that one of the results of this experiment is the creation of the demi-human race..."

Through Singh's narration, Cao Yu gradually understood what the Red Beauty Banquet was mainly for.

The Liren family is conducting player experiments.

One of the byproducts of this experiment was the creation of numerous demi-human races.

These experimental life forms were all kept in a vast space detached from reality.

On that land, the Liren family artificially created kingdoms, tribes, city-states, and other powers, all for the enjoyment of outsiders.

For example, Singh commissioned a queen service—the queen of a small subhuman kingdom would serve him as a deity at the banquet.

This kind of customization service requires an additional fee.

In addition, the Liren family also provides high-end services such as elven slavery, hunting, village massacres, and the destruction of kingdoms.

Sometimes, to make it more exciting, they'll even capture some outside players and throw them in...

"...Besides these, there's also the 'bodyguard purchase'."

Singh continued:

"It must be said that the Li Ren family is quite professional in the field of mind control and brainwashing. They have a lot of high-potential player slaves under their control for various forces to choose from."

I heard that a big shot had taken a liking to Wan Ting and specifically requested the Li Ren family to help him get her. Unfortunately, the Li Ren family was a step too slow; Wan Ting had already been signed by the Huanyu Group. Players with powerful connections are not to be trifled with..."

After hearing Singh's words, Cao Yu frowned.

The Li Ren family is utterly lawless!
A small family could not possibly have the capacity to do something like this.

The Xu sisters' earlier guess was correct; the waters behind the Red Beauty Manor... run very deep.

"So, the entrance to this 'slave space' you mentioned is in the Crimson Manor?"

While asking questions, Cao Yu used the enforcement device given to him by the unofficial hunter guild to record Singh's words.

“That’s right,” Singh said. “The entrance is indeed in the Crimson Manor. Not only the slave space, but I’ve also heard that the experimental space set up by the Li Ren family has its entrance inside the Crimson Manor. However, I’ve never been inside the experimental space.”

Cao Yu pondered... A space capable of containing multiple kingdoms, tribes, and city-states couldn't be small. Such a vast space could probably only be generated by a level A site-specific item... He asked:

"The Li Ren family controls A-level terrain items? Just like the Purgatory Beast Hunting Grounds?"

"It might not necessarily be a prop. The spacetime technology of Tianyan Star can do the same. However, I'm not sure whether it's a prop or technology."

Singh replied truthfully:

"Although I hold a high-ranking position in the 'Galaxy Life Group,' my entry into this circle is entirely due to my powerful connections; I am not part of the decision-making body. I share in the enjoyment, but I have no access to the real secrets..."

Cao Yu then asked some more detailed questions.

Singh was a good-for-nothing who only knew how to enjoy himself. He didn't know much, and his brain was quickly drained of information.

He also sensed something unusual... Was this intelligence obtained too easily?
How could someone who knows so many secrets not have any privacy measures in place? Could it be that these secrets are actually unimportant?
Is it the kind of situation where it doesn't matter whether it's leaked or not?

'Forget it. Why bother with all that?'

Cao Yu quickly stopped dwelling on the issue.

His goal is to make a fortune while the situation is going well; other things are none of his concern. Why bother with all this?
Thinking of this, Cao Yu's gaze towards Singh changed:

"So, you've done quite a few bad things?"

"A bad thing? No, it's called hedonism."

Singh treated Cao Yu as an old friend and spoke his mind without reservation:
"Some people are born noble, some are born lowly. I belong to the noble ones. It is an honor for the lowly creatures below to provide me with some amusement in my life, and it is worth it for them to die."

"People born with such noble bearing must be very wealthy, right?" Cao Yu asked with the concern of an old friend, "How much did you bring with you on this trip?"

"Around ten thousand," Singh said.

Upon hearing this, Cao Yu's face immediately turned cold:

"Damn poor bastard! You didn't even bring enough money to buy your life, if you don't die, who will..."

……

Three minutes later, Singh disappeared from this world forever.

It vanished without a trace.

Fortunately, he and Cao Yu hit it off immediately, and before leaving, he voluntarily gave Cao Yu the 13 evolution points and many items he was carrying.

After accepting the inheritance, Cao Yuxin used the B-grade item "Manjusaka" to implant false memories into the bartender.

The aircraft continued its journey towards the Red Manor.

Singh was no nobody, and his death was bound to cause a series of shocks.

However... with the information provided by Shen Luoyan providing cover, unless the investigators deploy A-level reconnaissance equipment, it will be impossible to pinpoint the incident to him.

According to Princess Yuzhen, only the headquarters of Bureau 09 possesses this level of reconnaissance equipment.

Cao Yu couldn't help but sigh inwardly—a high superpower number meant arrogance; once the conditions were met, one could act almost recklessly, letting their fists do all the talking.

Originally, he had no intention of killing anyone.

His initial plan was to use a drug to knock the person unconscious, and then use "Star Shift" to teleport the person to a remote corner to lie down for a day.

Unfortunately, Singh was too ruthless, and he couldn't help but strike.

'Ugh, my damned sense of justice…'

Twenty minutes later.

The aircraft landed on the helipad of the Red Beauty Manor.
