Daily Summary: I'm a CEO in a Bizarre World

night.

After finishing her workday, Mai Xing returned to her rented room to rest.

We only completed 3 work orders today.

But each item is rated 2.5, similar to the warehouse cleaning done in the morning.

The performance was good, but the task was not easy to complete.

If it weren't for the fact that Mai Xing is now at the [Bull and Horse] pathway sequence 8, and possesses two powerful sealing artifacts, "King's Void" and "Kidney Deficiency Essence," which have reached the [Initial Influence] level, he wouldn't be in this situation.

To complete these kinds of work orders, it either takes more time or requires a lot of rational effort, leading to a deficit.

By the end of the day, both sealed items had gained 75 points of influence.

[Sealed item: "2-0954 The King's Hypocrisy"]

[Impact Level: Preliminary Impact (105/300)]

……

[Seal item: "2-1549 Kidney Deficiency Essence"]

[Impact Level: Preliminary Impact (80/300)]

The text on the panel appears before your eyes as you control it with your thoughts.

If this pace continues, in another 3 days we can upgrade the two sealed items to [Medium Influence], giving them the power of a non-path Sequence 8.

"I wonder how long it will take for Lin's mother to obtain the coordinates of the contaminated entity. Hopefully, she can upgrade a few more sealed artifacts to [Moderate Influence] before the great battle."

Just as Mai Xing was pondering, he suddenly received a message on WeChat.

It's Ye Lin.

Ye Lin: Are you free now? I've got the coordinates of the contaminated entity.

Mai Xing thought for a moment and typed a reply:

"MaiXing: Send me your location, come quick!"

……

20 minute later.

The two met at a major road called Warehouse Avenue in the Wealth District.

This area is located on the edge of the wealth zone and is very close to the industrial zone.

As the name suggests, Warehouse Avenue is lined with warehouses used to store goods temporarily produced in the industrial area.

Led by Ye Lin, the two went straight to their destination without beating around the bush, stopping in front of a warehouse.

Both of them were extraordinary beings at Sequence 8, and as they stood outside the warehouse, a clear warning had been issued by their extraordinary spiritual perceptions.

A strong feeling of palpitations told the two that a dangerous, corrupted entity was lurking inside.

When faced with the "resentment of corporate slaves" that contaminated his body, Mai Xing was only a Sequence 9, which is incomparable to his current state.

However, if we compare it to the extraordinary spiritual reaction one has when encountering "mold spots in one's own home".

The contaminated substance hidden in the warehouse at this moment is definitely better than "the mold in your own home"!

"The information provided by [Loan King] is really accurate; it even gives you a direct location."

To ease the tension in her nerves, Mai Xing said, seemingly unintentionally.

"Want some? Let's worship the [Loan King] together. I'm a loyal follower of His, and with my recommendation, I can secure you a high position."

Ye Lin glanced at Mai Xing and continued the conversation.

But Mai Xing waved his hand and said:

"That won't be necessary. My path is currently only available to one person. But if you want to change your faith in the future, I can help you."

"We'll see."

Ye Lin answered casually, but a hint of expectation flashed in her eyes.

"The contaminated substance is inside the warehouse? How do I get in?"

Mai Xing stared at the tightly locked iron gate of the warehouse. Even if he had the key, opening it would inevitably cause a huge commotion. The warehouse was also completely enclosed by a roof, making it impossible to climb over the wall.

"I borrowed a sealing artifact that can pass through walls."

"Spending such a huge amount of money?!"

"You took a picture of the trial link from 'It's Jingjing,' aren't you close with her? Why don't you reimburse me?"

Mai Xing sensed the sarcasm in Ye Lin's tone, but instead of responding, he urged her on:

"Hurry up and go inside, it's getting late. Go home and wash up and go to bed as soon as you're done."

As Ye Lin used the power of the sealed artifact, the two broke through the thick walls and entered the warehouse.

The environment here is similar to the warehouse cleaning work site where Maxwell completes its morning cleaning orders, but it is larger and taller.

A faint stench permeated the murky air, making Mai Xing's nasal cavity uncomfortable just by inhaling it.

The goods were stacked high, at least ten meters high, with many spider webs clinging to them, as if they hadn't been tended to for a long time.

The shelves stretched as far as the eye could see, leading into the distant, dark depths.

A powerful feeling of palpitations arises simply from staring into the darkness ahead.

Mai Xing was certain that the polluted entity was hiding deep in the darkness.

"I reiterate, tonight we will not confront the polluting entity head-on, but only collect its extraordinary power."

It will take a few days to unlock its removal method before you can kill it, okay?

Mai Xing reiterated his statement to Ye Lin.

On the way here, I had already discussed it with Ye Lin, and she agreed. But Mai Xing was worried that she might suddenly act impulsively, or say one thing and mean another.

"Okay, okay, stop nagging." Ye Lin rolled her eyes.

As the two walked deeper into the warehouse, their heart palpitations grew stronger.

In the quiet environment, the only sounds in the warehouse were the soft footsteps of the two people and the barely perceptible thumping of their heartbeats.

There were also some minor unusual noises.

It sounded as if the strings were being plucked.

The deeper they went, the more spider webs they encountered, and Mai Xing felt an itch on his face.

Remembering that she had removed a lot of cobweb contaminants while cleaning the warehouse that morning, she immediately used "Right Bride" to purify the already connected cobwebs in front of her.

Ok? !

As the spiderweb was cleared away, the following text popped up on the screen:

[Note-taking ability activated. Should "The Thousand Threads of Pollutants" be included?]

Included!

The unlocking of sealed artifacts will also take into account their strength.

But pollutants are different.

Once each contaminant reaches the [Initial Impact] level, its [Location] and [Removal Method] will be unlocked.

Those are all mobile rationalities!

[Contaminant: Threads of Silk]

Impact: No impact (0/100)

[Cost per use: 0.11 sanity/minute]

[Ability: During use, it can fire highly adhesive spider silk]

【Cons: Extremely sticky residue appears all over the body after use; duration is affected by the duration of use】

[Description: Even though it is merely a nest-building product of the Mother of the Deep Nest, it possesses extraordinary power unlike ordinary pollutants. As the number of prey it hunts increases, the strength of the Thousand-Woven Silk will also grow daily.]

[Location of the contaminated entity: Unknown (Unlocked when influence value reaches 33)]

[Pollution Removal Method: Unknown (Unlocked when impact value reaches 100)]

Upon seeing the description of "Thousand-Woven Silk", Mai Xing immediately frowned.

What is the Mother of the Deep Nest? It is merely the "Thousand-Woven Silk" that is the product of nest building, which has an intensity second only to the "resentment of the corporate slave".

Then wouldn't the Mother of the Deep Nest be... at least a level 1 corrupted entity?!

Just as Mai Xing felt a chill run down her spine, Ye Lin, who was beside her, suddenly stopped.

"arrive."

She held a flashlight and shone it forward.

At the end of the light source was a pale, withered face.

Suppressing the physical discomfort caused by witnessing a corpse, the two looked in the direction of the light source.

A spider web, stretching as far as the eye could see, covered the wall at the far end of the warehouse.

Corpses dressed in security guard or factory work clothes hung from spider webs, their skin shriveled, appearing to have been drained of blood and had been dead for some time.

Upon witnessing the Level 2 contaminated entity for the first time, Ye Lin felt an immense shock to her mind.

She swallowed hard, forcing herself to remain calm, and said:

"This is the corrupted entity itself, its name is..."

"It's called the Thousand-Woven Silk," Mai Xing murmured, following Ye Lin's words.
