"Regarding this, Chu He, the 'sage' of our dormitory, once gave an inference. It's a memetic infection, or memetic virus."
The puppet sighed and explained, "He believed that apart from having all kinds of terrifying killing abilities, 'bizarreness' has something in common, such as … immortality! Or … memetic virus! Any human who comes into contact with it will be 'infected', such as us … No matter how we talk about these things to outsiders, they will subconsciously think that we are joking, lying, and trying to use their 'science' to prove our lies.
"No media will take the initiative to report it. Even if they do report related cases, they will quickly sink into the endless garbage because of lack of attention … This is a memetic virus. It can also be regarded as large-scale subconscious information manipulation, regional hypnosis … It's scary, isn't it?
"Other than those who have also been contaminated by memes, some fanatics, believers, or a small number of people who are rational enough to overcome this kind of hypnosis with logical arguments, it is very difficult for others to believe in the existence of 'bizarreness' as long as they don't see it with their own eyes!
"This is why our world still looks very 'normal' …"
The puppet finally said, "By the way, it seems that the moment we came in was death and escape. I haven't introduced myself. My name is the puppet, and this is my sister …"
He pointed at the woman in the white dress and then at the man with the buzz cut. "This is Long Li. The three of us are official couriers."
"My … my name is Han Binjie …"
The otaku put on a long face. He had just said this when he heard footsteps coming from outside.
Clip-clop!
Clip-clop!
The sound of high heels scraping against the ground was very ear-piercing in the empty corridor.
Nearer, nearer and nearer...
Thump thump!
Thump thump!
The puppet seemed to be able to hear his own heartbeat. He reached out and slowly, slowly pushed open the window.
Ah Li was the first to push Han Binjie aside and quickly climbed out.
As official couriers, they were all experienced. They knew that this kind of escape job absolutely could not be chosen on the top floor of a building where there was no way out.
Since 'bizarreness' was in the corridor, they would jump out of the window and escape. After all, this was only the first floor!
"Old Han, you go too!"
The puppet lowered its voice and said to his sister and Old Han, "I've been thinking about how to survive. The company won't give us a job that will definitely kill us … I have a feeling that time might be a trap … Back at school, we didn't find a complete clock … Perhaps … the watches, phones, and other timekeeping devices on us … will attract Sinister's attention!"
"It's also possible that the act of staring at time will emit an attractive force."
As he spoke, he sent Han Bingjie and his sister out. Then, he watched as his sister lifted the hem of her dress and ran off with Old Han to meet up with Long Li.
Just as he was about to climb out of the window, the classroom door opened …
A cold wind suddenly poured into the classroom, causing the puppet's body to stiffen abruptly, and its movement to jump out of the window stopped.
A pair of ice-cold hands embraced him from behind.
"Let's go!"
He let out a scream and tried to turn around, wanting to see Bizarreness' face clearly.
The next moment, his eyes widened as if he had seen something unbelievable.
Pa!
A corpse fell to the ground!
A gentle breeze blew, and the classroom regained its tranquility.
The surroundings suddenly became even darker, and some inexplicable things happened.
In the void, invisible lines converged and formed a mysterious door.
The door opened slowly, and a large black umbrella fell out, landing on the puppet's corpse.
A moment later, a hand grabbed the umbrella and used it as a crutch to support the puppet's body, and he slowly stood up.
"Hmm, it's better than reincarnation!"
Chung Shen-soo stretched, and all the joints in his body crackled. "I don't want to be a baby …"
He called up the Tenxiu System and glanced at it casually.
[Name: Bizarreness (Chung Shen-soo)]
[Ghost Deity Reincarnation Method: Level One]
[Tenxiu Point: 9023 (17%)]
[Door of All Doors: Opening]
…
"The Ghost Deity Reincarnation Method is a secret technique to break through to Dharmakaya. Now that my body has completely immortalized and is sealed in the secret realm of the royal family, I must cultivate the Ghost Deity Reincarnation Method to the ninth level before I can return. Then, my true spirit and body will merge into one, and I will control my immortalized body.
"This Ghost Deity Reincarnation Method is actually a secret technique to cultivate the true spirit to increase one's rationality. It also combines a bit of Buddhist and Western mysticism. Every time I break through, I need to accumulate a certain amount of Power of Will or a Spiritual Anchor?
"Haha … Tenxiu Point doesn't even have 10,000 points.
"In other words, I can either cultivate the secret technique or gather 100,000 Tenxiu Point in this world, and then I can return?"
Chung Shen-soo laughed and bent his back like a comical clown.
After a few seconds, he stood up, rubbed his face, and sighed. "I'm one and only. Even though I'm separated by 3,000 worlds, I'm still affected by a bit of crazy pollution in my body?
"With so many worlds separating us, the pollution is already so serious. If I reincarnate directly in Seven Lights Skies without the protection of a mighty person, I'm afraid I would have lost my rationality long ago."
He could feel that a chaotic spring had opened up in his heart at this moment.
There was an endless stream of madness and pollution coming out of this spring.
"This seems to be a technological world … Maybe, I need a psychiatrist …"
"Haha …"
Chung Shen-soo caressed the big black umbrella in his hand and laughed a few times. "Haha … I must be crazy to bring this cursed item here … Even if I brought the Immortal-Slaying Puppy, it would be better than this. Its negative effects can kill people …"
"No, a spiritual treasure can't be controlled at all without enough magical power and cultivation base. Especially if it has spirituality, it means that there is a possibility of betrayal … But cursed items, as long as one knows how to use them and knows how to avoid negative effects, even ordinary people can use them … This umbrella doesn't have any living characteristics, so it's most suitable for me now."
"Moreover … with such a high level, it's probably the strongest weapon in my hands. Even a true spirit needs the power to protect itself … I'm not crazy, I made this decision after careful consideration …"
"But this kind of adventure that's like walking on a tightrope is really exciting …"
Fortunately, this cursed item was usually sealed. As long as it wasn't opened, it would be fine.
If he really encountered a fatal crisis, he wouldn't have to worry about the negative effects.
Chung Shen-soo held the handle of the big umbrella and propped it on the ground. He began to search through the memories of this body.
Puppets, unemployed youths, regular employees of express delivery companies everywhere …
Missions, mysteries, fear …
His wish before death was to live on with his younger sister, become a director, and resign from the company …
"Wait … there's something wrong with this person's memory."
Chung Shen-soo rubbed his eyebrows and laughed strangely. "'I' don't have a younger sister at all …"
