Collapse Immortal

"Speaking of my kidney, I have to blame Rosaline. That guy lied to me about a hidden mission, but who would have thought that when I ran over to keep the appointment, it turned out to be a group of kidney-stripping people. Hiccup, even an ordinary employee can be connected to such things. Being a homeless person really is the worst route."

"No, you're just trying to take shortcuts. Isn't it better to just do your mission honestly?"

"Don't talk nonsense, I do all the commissions every day, and I often perform as a performer."

"But the little money you earned you spent on drinking, didn't you?"

"Not all of it. Look, I still have a coin here."

Tevarin sighed, took a handful of change from his pocket, and smacked Wendy on the forehead with it, saying contemptuously:

"I'm in a good mood today, so I'll give you a few coins. Come on, play some music for me."

"Yes, yes, today I will play your favorite song from the sky."

After picking up the dinner money beside her, Wendy pulled out a worn-out guitar from behind her and began to play it skillfully, humming softly.

Tevarin folded his arms across his chest, leaning against the wall of the bridge, quietly listening to the beautiful music.

Well, it turned out that I was right to take the risk to save him before.

Inside the Wayne Group building, the brown-haired man looked at the sky outside which was gradually getting dark, then glanced at the crowded office and sighed. It seemed that today would be another day of overtime.

...Fuck it! I can't stand it! I'm going to go beat the boss's head off today!

The brown-haired man suddenly stood up, rolled up his sleeves, and left his workstation with a murderous look on his face.

The other employees were stunned for a moment, then they reacted and looked at him expectantly.

At this moment, the hedgehog-haired man sitting at the workstation next to him suddenly stood up and hugged him.

"Calm down! Morax, calm down!"

"Let me go! Ruotuo, even if I get fired today, I'm going to beat up that fat, big-eared supervisor!"

"No way! If you get fired, you'll end up on the homeless route."

"I don't care! I've endured it for so long in real life, why should I endure it for just a game? Let me go!"

“…MD makes sense.”

So Ruotuo joined Morax and rushed into the supervisor's office and beat up the person who made them work overtime.

Suddenly, many notification sounds of increasing reputation rang in the ears of the two people.

"You...I won't let you go."

After saying this, the bruised supervisor tilted his head and fainted.

"Huh, finally feeling refreshed, Ruotuo, let's go."

Morax pulled the collar of his suit, looking very happy. But just when he was about to start his wandering life with Ruotuo, he turned around and found that his best friend was standing outside the door with a look of surprise.

"What are you looking at?"

Morax walked over, patted Ruotuo's shoulder, then followed his gaze and was immediately attracted by the big wavy black hair.

Of course, it’s not because of her looks, but because of her identity.

[Name: Bruce]

[Race: Human]

……

[Identity: Owner of Wayne Group, billionaire]

It turns out you are the mastermind behind making them work overtime!

Morax and Ruotuo looked at each other and immediately reached a consensus to beat the woman up before leaving.

Although they generally don't beat women, capitalists don't distinguish between genders.

However, there are quite a lot of bodyguards around Bruce. If you want to punch that pretty face, you can't be reckless and have to attack by surprise.

As for whether he would be beaten to death by the bodyguards...

It doesn't matter, it's just a game.

So, the two of them approached calmly.

Inside Arkham Asylum, the one-armed man and the legless man fell silent after looking at the identification information given by the system.

It's nothing, it just hurts too much.

Even just looking at the various descriptions above, I can feel the phantom pain.

In the internal testing environment where the sensitivity cannot be adjusted, this thing is really not usable by humans.

It hurts, it hurts so much!

Chapter 92 Load Beast

In the bright conference room, a group of people sat on the sofa. The little rabbit hopped around and put tea for everyone. After saying thank you, Zhen picked up the cup and started drinking without any hesitation.

Barbara glanced at Zhen and saw that she had no intention of speaking, so she turned around and asked:

"So what are we going to talk about this time? The dorm supervisor will be checking the rooms soon."

"Ah, don't worry about that. Rhodes Island is a ship sailing in a dream. Time here is much slower than outside."

The little rabbit quickly waved his hands and explained, and then said what he really wanted to say.

"I brought everyone to Rhodes Island this time mainly to register your identities and... uh, to explain the duties of the Ark Knights."

"Duty? Fighting those monsters?"

"Originally, this was the only task, but due to what happened a week ago, in addition to destroying the Loadbeast, we also need to repair Rhodes Island, and..."

Having said that, the little rabbit paused, and his mood became visibly depressed.

"Find the doctor who betrayed Rhodes Island."

"…what happened?"

"I don't know either. A week ago, the doctor suddenly blew up Rhodes Island and took away the contracts of the other knights on me. Only Texas was left."

“…I’m sorry for bringing up your sad story.”

"It's okay, you should know these things."

The little rabbit exhaled, then raised its paws and patted its face to cheer itself up. It continued its introduction with high spirits:

"Regardless of other things, our primary goal is to eliminate the beasts, bring happiness to the children, and protect the apparent peace on campus, so that adults outside the school will not discover the children's abnormalities."

"Wait a minute! I understand the first one, but why can't the adults outside the school find out?"

"Because Bo...someone said that if adults discovered the children's abilities, something bad would happen."

"Like, turning the kids into weapons, right?"

Zhen suddenly took over, and the little rabbit nodded and continued:

"Children, or rather girls, have the power to change the world, but it only manifests itself when they are extremely emotional."

"Furthermore, this power is at its strongest at the age of twelve. After that, it gradually decreases year by year, and by the time one reaches adulthood at the age of eighteen, it has almost completely disappeared."

"The greatest function of my contract is to channel the power within you and constrain it so that it can be used stably."

"Besides that, to unleash this power, one must rely on extreme emotions. However, because there are no constraints, it will be extremely uncontrollable. The vast majority will end up self-destructing, and only a small number of people can control this chaotic power on their own."

"But even so, this power is tempting enough. We can't predict how the adults will react after knowing this, so the best way is to keep it from them."

"Okay, I understand this."

After all, Barbara is a member of society and she is not naive. This is how the world is. It is difficult to distinguish between good and evil, and interests are paramount.

A group of girls who possess great power but are mentally immature will only be swallowed up completely when faced with the cruel society.

So who built this ivory tower?

Zhen, who was sitting aside drinking tea, suddenly remembered the description of the ivory tower in the identity introduction.

Because the recognized rules

The question is, who made the rules?

Also, since there are rules in place, isn’t it possible that adults outside the school are unaware of the students’ situation?

At least, the people at the top must know.

In this case, the Doctor's betrayal is intriguing.

Even something as inexplicable but certainly crucial as a contract can be taken away. Could the person Amiya trusts so much really be the final villain in this copy?

Unlike Barbara who was already somewhat involved, Zhen always maintained a clear understanding.

She understood that this was a game, and since there was a protagonist, there would naturally be a villain.

So, does this "villain" refer to a specific person or something conceptual?

No one except Ying noticed that he was really lost in thought, as Amiya continued to explain to everyone the duties a knight needed to fulfill.

Destroy the Loadbeast.

In fact, in addition to a moment of extreme emotions, long-term mental burden may also stimulate the power in the girl's body, and this is the source of the load beast.

If the beast is not destroyed in time, the girl will be affected by this twisted power and eventually transformed into a witch.

Witches cannot be reversed, they are absolute evil and can only be destroyed.

Originally, when Rhodes Island was still intact, the Ark Knight could use this ship to travel to the girl's dream and destroy the born load beast there.

Not only will this not affect reality, but because of the existence of Rhodes Island, the damage the knights suffer in their dreams will not be projected onto their bodies in reality.

Even if they die, they will only be depressed for a day or two.

However, Rhodes Island was severely damaged, and almost all of its equipment was scrapped.

I can't even stay in other people's dreams, I can only drift between the narrow gaps between dreams.

So Texas has to solve everything in reality.

"So... is it necessary to use a gun to cut someone's head off?"

"Well, that's the only way to get the loadbeast out of the dream."

"...You didn't use all the Originium you obtained earlier to resurrect the victims, did you?"

"Sorry...I was a little depressed during that time."

"No, I'm not blaming you...never mind, just keep talking."

"Okay, I'll continue..."

Because the burden beasts originate from the excessive mental burden of girls, their characteristics are closely related to their own character flaws. Therefore, they can be generally divided into twelve types.

Selfish, capricious and cowardly - a beast.

Stubborn personality, prone to extremes - tumor beast.

Pursuing extremes, aloof and difficult to approach - the Beast Splitter.

Sensitive and suspicious, weak and vulnerable - the bewitching beast.

Arrogant and impatient - Qiong Beast.

Narrow-minded and possessive - scaly beast.

Give up halfway and don't repent - hoofed beast.

Psychologically fragile, pessimistic and negative - horned beast.

He thinks he is smart and likes to play tricks on people - a beast with a face.

Impulsive by nature, overestimating one's own capabilities - feathered beast.

No opinion of one's own, very dependent - hunter.

The moody group chatted together, thinking about food, looking ahead and behind - a beast.

"Well, in addition to these twelve, there is also a golden beast, but it is extremely rare. Only girls destined for greatness can produce this kind of load beast."

"Destined for greatness?"

"Well, generally speaking, there are only one or two such people in an era."

The little rabbit paused and continued:
