As someone who prioritizes killing others, I'm forced to stream a death game.

In a room where prying eyes were kept at bay.

Chen Yang looked at the floating window in front of him and said with a smile, "Don't worry, as long as Liu Ren is dead, the Sky-Piercing Gang..."

Before he could finish speaking, he received an emergency contact notification.

Chen Yang frowned and greeted the person he was contacting: "My subordinate is contacting me, please wait a moment—"

Only then was the communication request from Shuangjie accepted.

"what's up?"

"Brother Chen, something's happened." Shuang Jie, with barely suppressed composure, quickly and concisely reported the facts that had occurred: "Teng Ling is dead! All forty or so of his men who brought him in are dead!"

"What did you say?!"

Chen Yang, who had been swirling his wine glass, slammed it down on the table and demanded an answer.

"Teng Ling is dead?! How is that possible?!"

Is Teng Ling someone who can be killed so easily?

No!

He has about forty men under his command!

Moreover, his own martial arts skills are also very strong!

Otherwise, it would have been impossible for them to fight their way up from the bottom to P5 in the Golden Crow Group.

Which one is weak if they can reach P5?

Only someone like Liu Ren, who took advantage of the instability within the newly formed Qingtian Gang, had a chance to rise to the top.

But getting ahead is one thing, and whether you can hold your position is another!

Is a P5 with no people under their command the same as a P5 with forty or so people under their command?

The former is just a slightly better P7!

The latter is a genuine P5 with real power!

They have their own underlings, their own loyal subjects, and their own supporters!

How could someone like that just die like that?

Moreover, all his subordinates are dead?

What a joke!

Shuangjie explained, "They're really dead! Brother Chen! The bodies are right in front of us! We just finished counting them!"

Chen Yang took a few heavy breaths, processing the news, and then asked, "What exactly happened? Report everything to me in detail!"

"Yes……"

Shuangjie recounted the entire story.

Of course, this is from his perspective.

Teng Ling was so confident in his plan to intercept and kill Liu Ren that he didn't send anyone to monitor the situation.

Damn it, who would have thought that there could be an accident when more than forty people were beating one person?

After listening to Shuang Jie's words, Chen Yang immediately made a judgment: "This was definitely not done by Liu Ren! Do you think I don't know who he is? Does he have the ability to do this?"

"So, Brother Chen, what do we do now? The plan has failed, and..." Shuangjie hesitated for a moment, but still said, "Liu Ren knows about this, and it's related to us."

"So what? Does he have any evidence?"

"Probably not."

"That settles it then." Chen Yang leaned back in his executive chair, thought for a moment, and said, "Liu Ren definitely doesn't have that ability on his own. It's probably just that one of the people we helped happened to pass by, saw Teng Ling and the others, and then stepped in to help them out."

If we're talking about someone who can take on forty people at once, then it's definitely the one who has fallen into the trap.

Only those guys have that kind of strength.

This is why those who enter the ghost realm and ordinary gang members are from completely different worlds in terms of treatment and status.

However, their combat strength is from a completely different world than that of ordinary members, so there's not much to say about it.

"Brother Chen, what do we do now? Liu Ren isn't dead..."

"..." Chen Yang was silent for a moment before replying, "It's alright. Even if he doesn't die this time, the martial arts competition later will be enough to give him a hard time!"

At this point, Chen Yang couldn't help but sneer.

The weak will die no matter where they go!

It's just a matter of sooner or later.

However, the fact that Liu Ren didn't die at Teng Ling's hands this afternoon did indeed disrupt one of Chen Yang's plans.

“Then…” Shuangjie hesitated before speaking.

He also knew that whether Liu Ren lived or died was not really important.

The important thing is when he dies!

He didn't die this morning.

I didn't die again at noon today!

Although Shuangjie didn't know why Chen Yang insisted on Liu Ren getting into trouble during this period.

But he knew that Chen Yang's plans had definitely been disrupted by this unexpected event.

"Since Liu Ren didn't die at Teng Ling's hands, then let it go," Chen Yang said. "Clean up the scene and don't do anything unnecessary. We have an operation tonight, so make sure the brothers get some rest."

"Yes."

After hanging up the call, Chen Yang pulled out another floating window, stared at the image inside, and sneered: "Your people are far too reckless! You heard it too, Teng Ling is dead!"

The person in the floating window replied, "So be it, hehe... I should say, it's better that he's dead. I never thought that the mighty Teng Ling would end up like this!"

"What did you say over there?"

"..." The figure was silent for two seconds, then suddenly laughed: "You don't know, do you? Teng Ling was highly regarded by our Brother Ding. He's been secretly supporting and cultivating him all along, but now, Teng Ling is dead! You might as well have just said that Liu Ren killed him. Knowing Ding Xing's temper, this matter is definitely not over!"

"It's no use if this doesn't end. No matter how long it goes, Ding Xing can't do anything more at this point." Chen Yang said, looking annoyed. "I originally wanted to use someone else to do my dirty work, but before I could kill anyone, the knife broke first!"

"If the knife breaks, just replace it. It may not be as good as Teng Ling's, but it'll do."

"Replace who?"

“I’ll do it. Since Teng Ling has gone down, someone has to come up. I’ll finish what he didn’t do.”

"...Okay. How about tonight—?"

"As originally planned."

"Row."

……

in the afternoon.

Liu Ren rode in a driverless car, traversing several major districts, and finally arrived at the easternmost part of the Eastern District—the East Gate.

This is said to be the entrance for people from the "outside" to come in.

Those brought into the central courtyard were referred to as "prisoners" by the people in the courtyard.

It's said that he was thrown in because he committed a crime.

But why it was thrown into the courtyard remains a mystery to this day.

Even the most successful streamers and top gamers ultimately failed to figure this out.

Because even the best players only make it to P6.

Liu Ren's current P5 status makes him stand out among all the gamblers in "Eternal Night".

After witnessing the surreal and magnificent sight of Dongmen, which seems almost impossible in reality, the comments section was filled with a lot of exclamations.

East Gate, where countless newbies' dreams begin!

But it's also a graveyard for newbies.

If the assigned role is that of a newly arrived 'prisoner,' then indeed, the save file is completely corrupted and needs to be restarted.

No, there's no such thing as restarting in "Eternal Night." Each player is bound to a single account; once it's gone, it's truly gone.

So I just sent it directly!

[A place where newbies can bury their dreams.]

Every time I see that huge archway-like building, I'm awestruck.

This definitely isn't man-made, right?

"You're already playing virtual reality games, and you're bringing this up with me?"

Although many things in it feel very realistic, it's still ultimately a virtual online game...

I wish the sensation of pain could also be somewhat virtual.

I wish death could be a little more virtual.

[Impossible, death cannot be simulated in any way.]

If players could respawn infinitely, wouldn't that be equivalent to cheating?

Have you ever heard of the Fourth Natural Disaster?

I feel like this streamer is the fourth catastrophe right now.

[Yeah, are the streamers from the same dimension as us?]

Obviously not.

Speaking of which, I remember there are some Japanese people in the eastern region who are living quite comfortably.

【ah? real or fake? 】

【real. 】

Although the background settings of the characters in "Eternal Night" are rather vague, they can still be discerned from their names. There are not only people from the Nine Emperors, but also people from the East, and even one character who once met a member of the White Alliance.

【I'm blanching, Xiong Niu?】

[Standardization: She's not bearish at all; in fact, she's fair-skinned, beautiful, blonde, blue-eyed, and has long legs.]

[Some have speculated that the Eastern Region corresponds to the real-world Tianzhou region, the Northern Region to the far north, the Southern Region to Yangzhou and the southernmost continent, and the Western Region to Muzhou.]

[Holy crap, isn't this streamer going to grab a knife and knock the head off his well-off neighbor?]

There's no need to be so barbaric; let's give them some space.

[So you're only showing a head, right?]

Should we keep the shrimp head or the top?

I remember that the sex industry seemed quite developed in the gang-controlled areas of Japan...

You must be mistaken.

Could I have misremembered this?

[They must be mistaken. Guys, let's have the streamer check it out when they have time!]

[Fine, fine, fine, the abacus beads are practically hitting my face!]

However, we do need to verify what the streamer said.

【…】

Liu Ren sat in the car, looking at the scenery outside while watching the live comments.

Seeing this, he replied, "If the streamer survives until then, he'll go and see what's going on for the brothers."

The reason why this news, which everyone is interested in, remains uncertain is that it is still not confirmed.

It's because very few people can survive and reach the territory occupied by the Japanese gangs.

Almost none.

All information could only be obtained through hearsay.
