Looking at the speculations in the comments section, Liu Ren chuckled to himself.

He actually hoped that he could get special treatment.

That would make things easier, and we wouldn't need to risk our lives here—although it seems we've indeed moved beyond that stage now.

After scanning his surroundings, Liu Ren found a tunnel and started walking through it.

He intends to delve deeper.

After passing through a not-so-long underground tunnel, Liu Ren once again arrived at a very, very spacious underground space.

He used his newfound night vision to observe the scene before him.

Even with his own strength as a safety net, he couldn't help but take a breath.

"This is……"

The camera in the live stream gradually moved down, showing a view below.

In a wide space, large and small four-legged beasts stood there.

Some of them were nibbling at the surrounding glowing crystals.

Some are attacking each other.

Others were devouring the corpses of their own kind.

Each one looked almost exactly like the one Liu Ren had encountered before.

So many five-point monsters?

I thought that was the boss room before, but it turns out that wasn't the boss at all?

Wow... I don't know why, but just watching it on a screen makes me feel a little uneasy.

【Me too……】

Could these things attack me through the screen?

It's probably just psychological.

People are always startled when they see scary things, but they get used to it after seeing them a lot.

【…】

Will you really get used to it?

Special Investigation Bureau.

Yuan Baiming frowned and glanced at his assistant beside him: "Are you feeling unwell?"

"Chief, I've seen all sorts of weird and disgusting things. It's just a strangely shaped monster. It's not that bad." The assistant shook his head.

"to be honest."

"..." The assistant was silent for two seconds, then finally nodded. "I do feel a little flustered—but I'm not afraid, Chief."

Upon hearing this, a colleague nearby retorted, "They're all panicking. What else could it be but fear?"

Assistant: "I can't control my heartbeat! Anyway, it won't affect my work."

Yuan Baiming ignored his excuses and asked the others, "You all take a look, do you have any special feelings?"

Upon hearing this, the other colleagues immediately did as instructed.

After a while, people gradually gave their replies.

"I am indeed a little panicked..."

"Strange, I've seen far more disgusting things than this, so why am I feeling panicked?"

"Could it be just psychological?"

Everyone in the circle was completely bewildered.

The assistant immediately said, "I told you it wasn't my problem!"

Yuan Baiming glanced at him: "If it's not your problem, then it's a big problem. Let Tianyu intervene and analyze it. Everyone, put on the body monitoring device."

"It can't be that bad, Chief..."

"This is an order."

"Yes."

Turning his attention back to the live stream, Yuan Baiming's brow had been furrowed for the past two hours.

While the live stream chat was still flowing as usual.

Liu Ren had already charged forward with his knife in hand.

He didn't want to worry about this or that.

The number of these nameless monsters in front of us is just right.

He can continue to stack his attribute values ​​as long as he kills them all.

Even as soon as you get close, the suppression and radiation on your mind follow one after another.

His mental value began to drop rapidly at a rate of three to four percent per second.

But it's not a big problem.

With 100 kill points as reserves, as long as his mental strength doesn't drop to zero in an instant, he can restore his mental state anytime, anywhere.

As long as it doesn't sell out instantly.

With his powerful recovery ability, Liu Ren had no worries.

"Kill life!"

The not-so-obvious flashes of light began to crisscross in this huge, hollowed-out space.

The moment Liu Rengang made a move, all the tall creatures had already sensed his arrival.

next second.

The tall creatures, who were originally going about their own business, suddenly focused all their hostility on Liu Ren.

Liu Ren, carrying a knife, was suddenly pressed down by his explosive leap into the air.

"! How could this be? How is gravity—"

He immediately sensed something was wrong.

The stab that could have directly struck the target was abruptly interrupted by the sudden force of gravity hitting the body.

At the same time, the killing system, which had previously only prompted about acquiring kill points and had no other response, started displaying additional prompts.

"Panel status has been updated"

Liu Ren opened his panel.

You'll notice a new "Status" tab has appeared in the panel.

Below this section, the terms "delay" and "mental erosion" are clearly displayed.

"...Damn it, this monster can apply debuffs to people?"

Liu Ren cursed instinctively.

Then the viewers in the live stream heard it too.

[Debuff?]

What debuff is it?

It seems we've been hit by the delaying action?

[It was probably gravity; it was obvious that it was pulled down halfway through the sprint.]

These weird things can even use skills?

Where is the most realistic online game you were promised...?

They only told you the five senses were realistic, but they didn't say the background setting was realistic.

[Wait a minute, if these monsters can use skills, wouldn't the streamer be useless?]

[There are so many monsters! If each one attacks, the streamer might not even be able to get up from the ground.]

[Brother Wendao, should we retreat first?]

[This is deep enough; going any further would be extremely dangerous.]

It's not that I can't get up.

But as the layers of sluggishness pressed down on him, Liu Ren did feel as if he were covered in a layer of glue.

Moreover, this layer of glue is getting thicker and thicker.

Looking at the advice in the comments, a hint of doubt flashed in Liu Ren's eyes.

Should we evacuate first?

You can also farm kill points using those harmless enemies.

There's no need to take the risk here.

With this in mind, Liu Ren decided to leave.

Just as he was about to leave, several layers of negative "sluggish" states enveloped him like a nesting doll.

The feeling of stickiness in the body begins to increase exponentially.

Liu Ren's expression immediately turned somewhat unpleasant.

"This debuff can stack?"

In most online games, similar status effects cannot be stacked.

Even if they can be stacked, there is a limit.

Otherwise, with a large number of players or monsters, the value of area-of-effect skills will skyrocket to infinity.

However, there seems to be no upper limit here.

Moreover, in the few seconds that Liu Ren was delayed, in addition to the "sluggishness," he also developed five or six more layers of "paralysis."

We can't delay any longer.

There are at least thirty or forty monsters in this space. If one of them comes to the entire floor, Liu Ren won't be able to escape safely today.

"Thousand Bones Asura!"

Rapidly ossifying his entire body, Liu Ren exerted force with his lower body, using a burst of energy to forcefully break free from the various covering suppression effects.
