“The idea is good, but unfortunately, you’ve underestimated the Wolf Demon’s strength, and your plan is doomed to fail.”

Su Nan sneered.

He didn’t have much faith in Zhang Feng and the others.

Previously, with his Demon Art Mastery, he couldn’t even withstand two moves from the Wolf Demon.

Zhang Feng had only achieved the Demon Cultivation Initial Success; such strength could barely withstand a single blow from the Wolf Demon, let alone the other two.

If Su Nan were an ordinary player and was used by Zhang Feng, perhaps Zhang Feng might have been successful, but now, the chances of success seemed slim.

Zhang Feng seemed to have quit the game to rush him, and the prison cell became quiet.

Seeing this, Su Nan knew he couldn’t stay here any longer.

Once Zhang Feng logged in again, the plan would be put into action, and if he stayed in the corridor, he might be discovered by the Wolf Demon.

After a moment’s hesitation, he decided to quit the game first.

Quit Game.

Before he could even get out of the game warehouse, his phone was constantly beeping with notification sounds, incessant and non-stop.

The one sending messages was Zhang Feng.

Su Nan ignored it, casually set his phone to silent, and tossed it aside.

“Zhou Cheng is very anxious about this Mainline Task, it must be a limited-time task, but I don’t know what the task is about. It would be nice to get some information from Zhang Feng about it.”

Recalling the information he received earlier, Su Nan’s face slightly tensed.

He seriously suspected that Zhou Cheng had completed at least a 3-star level Novice Task.

If that was the case, then Zhou Cheng’s Demon Sutra probably had already reached Great Perfection!

“It’s now inevitable that Zhou Cheng has hidden strength, but I wonder if there are other players who have hidden strength as well?”

It’s not impossible, maybe these people realized the problem with the game from the beginning and hid themselves.

The previous out-of-control player was an example; when most of the players were worrying about the novice tasks, that player had already merged two bloodlines.

If it weren’t for his imminent loss of control and having no choice but to post for help, nobody would have known that someone had secretly merged two bloodlines.

Su Nan guessed quietly.

He didn’t know that just as he had guessed, players who hid their strength weren’t limited to Zhou Cheng alone.

Also in Donglin City.

In an old apartment building.

A young man, feeling the changes in his body, couldn’t help but be excited, laughing out loud:

“Hahaha, it’s real! It’s actually real! I did it!”

His name was Liu Qiang, a player in the Demon World.

Unlike others, he completed his novice task on the very first day of entering the game, all because he was taken as a disciple by a master when he entered the game.

When the master learned that he was an Outsider, he directly told him that the so-called Demon World was not a game world, but a real one.

Initially, Liu Qiang didn’t believe it, but the next thing the master did shattered his perception.

With just a light touch on his head, the master seemed to know all of Liu Qiang’s memories, even the details he didn’t remember clearly.

That made him have to believe the master’s words.

Because the matter was too bizarre, he didn’t reveal it to anyone, and no one even knew that he was playing the game.

From then on, he began to earnestly accumulate Demon Power.

Although the master wouldn’t help him complete tasks, he would occasionally provide some assistance.

That little bit of help was enough for him to easily surpass the majority of players.

After more than a week of hard work, he not only raised his Demon Art to Perfection today but also amassed enough Demon Power to awaken his bloodline combat technique.

With the awakening of his Bloodline Combat Skill, he successfully gained the power of the game in reality.

“Now, no one else has awakened a bloodline combat technique except for me!”

“What does Zhou Cheng count for? He’s nothing in front of me!”

Liu Qiang was excited in his heart, and with a grab, a fist-sized fireball condensed in his hand, accompanied by the rise of flame.

This was his bloodline ability, Fire Controlling!

He was a Spellcaster Warrior.

“Hahaha, I’d like to see who else dares to look down on me in the future!”

Liu Qiang laughed again, and the flames in his hands gave him unparalleled confidence.

Just as he was laughing, his room door was suddenly kicked violently twice by someone.

Then followed an angry man’s cursing, “Are you looking for death!? What the hell are you making a fuss about in the middle of the night instead of sleeping?”

Hearing the scolding, Liu Qiang’s smile vanished in an instant, and for a moment, he couldn’t help but want to kill the guy.

Fortunately, this thought had just risen but was quickly extinguished.

Opening the door and looking at the tall, fierce-faced man in front of him, he apologized, “I’m sorry.”

“Sorry? That’s it? Do you f***ing know that you woke me up? If you don’t give me an explanation today, I’ll cut off your head and kick it like a soccer ball.”

The man cursed and grabbed Liu Qiang’s hair, appearing as if he really wanted to cut off Liu Qiang’s head.

At this moment, Liu Qiang’s smile disappeared completely.

“Have you finished? Once you finish, you can die!”

There was no begging for mercy or escape, only a miserable scream accompanied by a raging fire.

…

Su Nan did not log into the game that night.

He didn’t know if Zhang Feng and the others were successful.

It wasn’t until the next morning, looking at the series of messages Zhang Feng had sent the night before, that he casually made up a reason and sent it over.

It only took ten seconds for Zhang Feng to respond to the message.

“Brother Wang Nan, I wanted to invite you to escape from the cell together last night, but you didn’t come. It’s such a pity.”

Yes, it’s a pity that there was one less scapegoat.

Su Nan sneered. If he didn’t know Zhang Feng’s real purpose, he might have believed it.

He casually made up another excuse and ignored Zhang Feng after learning that the three of them failed to escape from the prison cell.

Downtown Donglin City.

Linjiang Hotel.

This is the most famous five-star hotel in Donglin and also the place where Su Nan works.

“Brother Nan, what do you think happened yesterday? Do you think there really are supernatural powers in this world?”

Thinking of yesterday’s events, Wang Chong still felt lingering fear.

Within a few hours of the incident, it quickly made headlines on various media outlets.

It was defined as the Donglin City Bearman Incident by the media.

The personal information of the out-of-control player had also been completely exposed.

Li Xuheng, 23 years old, an employee of a foreign company, honest, introverted, and his only hobby was playing games – a typical gaming enthusiast.

Who would have thought that such an ordinary otaku would be the protagonist of last night’s incident?

After fermenting overnight, almost everyone knew about the Bearman incident in Donglin City.

At first, many people thought it was fake, but there were too many photos and videos leaked from the scene, making it hard to deny the truth.

A surveillance video inside the shopping mall, which has been shared nearly 10 million times on various platforms, explicitly showed Li Xuheng turning from a normal human being into a Bearman.

This shattered the worldview of many people.

After becoming a Bearman, Li Xuheng’s strength increased dozens of times, easily smashing a solid wood door in the mall, his power even greater than a real giant bear!

This completely surpassed reality and couldn’t be explained by science.

It made people wonder if there were powers beyond reality in this world.

“Judging from the situation yesterday, there should be supernatural powers!” Su Nan nodded.

No one knew more about yesterday’s events than him.

Wang Chong sighed with longing in his eyes: “It would be great if I could have supernatural powers.”

Su Nan glanced at him and calmly said, “Having supernatural powers isn’t necessarily a good thing. You saw the fate of that guy yesterday. That might be the price for having supernatural powers.”

Wang Chong thought for a moment and agreed: “You’re right. If having supernatural powers means turning into that kind of creature, I’d rather not have them.”

“Let’s not talk about this. It’s too far away from us. Brother Nan, let’s go and check all the fire-fighting equipment in the hotel.”

Su Nan was puzzled: “Don’t those things have regular inspections? I saw them last week. Why are we having a comprehensive inspection today?”

“This is the task that Fatty Li arranged for us today. Apparently, there was a severe fire in an apartment not far from us last night, and several people were burned alive.”

“Really?” Su Nan suddenly realized.

If it happened before, this would have made headlines, but now everyone is discussing the Bearman incident and few people care about this.

Su Nan didn’t pay attention either.

He and Wang Chong worked all morning, finally checking all the equipment.

Noon.

After lunch, Wang Chong mysteriously said, “Brother Nan, I just heard that a big shot will come to our hotel tomorrow.”

Su Nan replied indifferently, “Our hotel is the most famous five-star hotel in Donglin City. Isn’t it normal for big shots to come?”

Wang Chong said, “It’s not the same. I heard that this big shot will stay at our hotel for a long time and has booked an entire floor of rooms on the top floor. Now, the people in the guest room department are busy cleaning the rooms.”

“Booking an entire floor? Who is this big spender?” Now Su Nan was curious.

It’s rare for wealthy people travel to book an entire floor at once.

This means that the other party has many people.

Wang Chong grinned and said, “Brother Nan, you can’t guess what that person booked the rooms for.”

Su Nan had a thought and said, “It seems it’s not for a place to stay.”

Wang Chong nodded, “That’s right. I heard that the person is planning to set up a game studio here, and some people will come to install game warehouses this afternoon.”

“Setting up a game studio in a five-star hotel? What a lavish move!” Su Nan wondered.Updat𝒆d fr𝒐m nov𝒆lb(i)n.c(o)m

For some reason, now whenever he heard the word “game,” he subconsciously thought of the Demon World.

He couldn’t help but suspect that setting up the game studio had something to do with the game Demon World.

“Do you know which game that person is planning to enter by setting up the game studio?”

Wang Chong shook his head, “I don’t know about that. I heard all this from Fatty Li. Maybe he knows.”

Then, he seemed to remember something and continued, “Fatty Li said that the other party is in a hurry and demands that we set up everything within three days.”

“In a hurry? Three days? Can this be a coincidence?” Su Nan became more suspicious.

The Demon World public beta test will start in three days, and the person setting up the game studio is in a hurry, demanding to complete everything within three days. If this has nothing to do with the Demon World, Su Nan wouldn’t believe it.

He was even 80% sure that the game studio being set up was for the Demon World!

Most likely, it was a player from Demon World since few people outside of the game were paying attention to it.

“What a coincidence, having a player set up a studio here. I just don’t know who it would be.” Su Nan showed a playful smile.

As expected, that afternoon, more than 40 high-end game warehouses were brought into the hotel and installed, each worth a million.

Su Nan went to join the excitement and watched the installation but did not pay attention anymore. He didn’t want anyone to know that he was a player in the Demon World.

Nine o’clock at night.

Su Nan returned home and immediately logged into the game.action

He still didn’t know how to complete today’s daily tasks.
