A bizarre resurrection: I, Yang Jian, am bound by a contract with the school beauty!

sizzle-

A piercing electrical noise replaced all previous sounds, blaring wildly in the ears of every Kyushu audience member.

It seemed to foreshadow the terrifying realm they had entered.

What happened?! The screen is black!

[Oh my god! Where is my Yang Shen?! Where is my Li Yao goddess?!]

[Is the signal interrupted?]

[Impossible! The signal for the live broadcast of the national event cannot possibly be interrupted!]

[It's not a signal interruption! Look! The live stream is still going on, it's just... there's nothing on the screen!]

[Where...where is this? Why is it pitch black?]

Inside the operations room.

The technicians' shouts echoed through the hall: "Report to the commander! The strange live stream is still going on; it wasn't shut down or caused by anything else."

"How could this happen!" The commander-in-chief's face turned ashen.

An expert in paranormal studies, his face pale, gave the answer: "Because... they left the 'copy' area and entered... the real paranormal world!"

"That was a world...that didn't belong to light, nor to human senses!"

"Only demons, or those who possess demonic characteristics, can...see things in that world!"

These words shocked everyone in the room!

And this moment.

In that endless darkness.

Li Yao felt as if she had fallen into a cold, viscous deep sea, surrounded by suffocating pressure, with the sound of her own heartbeat and breathing amplified infinitely in her ears.

She can't see or hear anything.

fear.

Like invisible vines, it began to frantically coil around her heart.

Just as she was about to be driven mad by the deathly silence, a cold and powerful hand suddenly grabbed her wrist.

It's Yang Jian.

His calm voice rang in Li Yao's ears, dispelling all darkness and fear.

"Stay close to me."

"Um!"

Li Yao nodded heavily, then gripped that hand tightly in return, as if she were holding the whole world in her grasp.

With Yang Jian's guidance.

Her fear quickly faded, replaced by an unprecedented curiosity.

She strained to open her eyes wide, trying to see what the world looked like.

Gradually.

Her vision began to adjust to the darkness.

Perhaps because of her half-human, half-ghost constitution, a strange red light began to flicker in her originally clear eyes.

The world before her eyes began to slowly unfold.

This is a gray, dilapidated, and distorted urban outline.

The sky was a deep, dark red.

It looked like congealed blood.

There is no sun, no moon, no stars.

The tall buildings stand crookedly, their walls covered with huge cracks and unknown black stains, like the silent corpses of giants.

And beneath their feet.

Countless "snowflakes" were falling from the dark red sky.

Li Yao subconsciously reached out and caught a "snowflake".

however.

The moment that glistening "snowflake" touched her palm.

"hiss!"

A piercing, burning sensation suddenly came over me!

Li Yao gasped in pain.

She abruptly pulled her hand back, only to see a clear red mark on her palm, with wisps of black smoke rising from the wound.

"This isn't snow!" she exclaimed, looking at Yang Jian in horror.

Yang Jian stopped in his tracks.

Raise your head.

He let the "snowflakes" fall on his face and body.

Those "snowflakes" that were enough to scorch Li Yao had no effect on him whatsoever.

He held up two fingers.

He caught a piece of falling ash, held it in front of his eyes, and a thoughtful look flashed in his deep gaze.

"It's ashes."

He said it calmly.

"Ashes?" Li Yao was stunned. "Ashes from what's burned?"

Yang Jian did not answer this question.

Because even he didn't know.

What kind of burning material could turn its ashes into "snow" that covers the entire world, and... burn eternally?

The horror behind this is beyond imagination.

It was at this moment that...

beep-

A sudden and piercing horn blare shattered the deathly silence.

A faint green light appeared at the end of the dark street and was rapidly approaching them.

That was a taxi.

A taxi that looks incredibly old, covered in rust, yet strangely clean in some places!

Its headlights flashed a ghostly green as it drove silently along the dilapidated streets, finally stopping precisely in front of Yang Jian and Li Yao.

The moment that taxi appeared!

The Kyushu livestream room, which was originally pitch black, suddenly lit up!

The car headlights were a pale green.

Like a searchlight from hell, it illuminated a small area in front of the car.

It also clearly presented Yang Jian, Li Yao, and that strange taxi to hundreds of billions of viewers around the world!

The moment the taxi was spotted, the chat in the entire Kyushu live stream momentarily froze.

Followed by.

It was a terror and despair like a landslide or a tsunami!

【No!!!!!!】

It's that one! It's that weird taxi!!!

[Holy crap! How did we run into this thing?! Run! Yang Shen! Li Yao! Run!]

【It's over...it's over...how could it be it...】

Countless viewers of Kyushu felt a chill run from the soles of their feet to the top of their heads the moment they saw this taxi, as if the blood in their bodies was about to freeze!

They will never forget it!

Three months ago.

The challenges facing the nation's destiny have only just begun.

Kazan, the ace player of the Raging Sea Empire, who has cleared the bizarre dungeon three times in a row and is known as the "Bizarre Emperor," encountered this exact same bizarre taxi in one of the dungeons!

At the time, everyone thought it was just an ordinary means of transportation.

however.

After William got on the bus, everyone realized that it wasn't a bus at all!

That was a one-way ticket to a series of hellish experiences!

Inside the Kyushu War Room.

A young intelligence analyst frantically typed on his keyboard, pulling up all the information about the "strange taxi".

"A bizarre taxi! Codenamed 'Hell Bus'!"

"Determined to be an extremely dangerous mobile anomaly!"

"It won't attack on its own, but it will randomly appear in front of any player who leaves the instance!"

"Once you board, you will be randomly transported to a higher-difficulty, unknown instance! Instance type, difficulty, rules... all unknown!"

"and!"

"Players must pay the fare upon arrival at their destination!"

"The fare... is a bizarre prop!"

Upon hearing this, the commander-in-chief's heart sank!

Weird props!

They had just obtained a "cursed audio" that could be considered a divine artifact, but... but Yang Jian ate it!

They are now.

There are no strange props available to pay the fare!

"What would happen if there were no strange items to pay for it?!" the commander-in-chief asked in a hoarse voice.

"They will...they will force people to use their lifespan as collateral!"

The analyst's voice was filled with despair: "The required lifespan as collateral varies depending on the distance of the journey and the difficulty of the copy!"

"The one from the Angry Sea Empire, upon arriving at his destination, was told he needed to pay with eighty years of his lifespan!"

"After paying the fare, he instantly transformed into a frail old man, and... the system notified him that he had less than seven days left to live!"

"The only way to survive is to clear the randomly teleported instance within seven days and return to the real world alive!"

"Because the ghost driver cannot cross the world barrier to claim lives!"

"but......!"
