Bai Ge shook his head and said, "I'm forming hand seals for ninjutsu."

"..."

Section Chief Xing finally couldn't hold back any longer, stood up, and hurriedly walked out of the bathroom.

Bai Ge called out again from behind, "Wait, Section Chief Xing, where are you going?"

"I'm going to find some nitroglycerin pills! Otherwise I'll die of anger later!"

The bloated, white-haired balloon lay on the ground, no longer able to float. Finally, he couldn't hold back any longer and asked in fluent Chinese, "What are you saying?"

Bai Ge was overjoyed, "...So you little Japanese devil can speak Chinese."

The human-headed balloon finally snapped, gritting its teeth and saying each word clearly, "I'm not a Japanese devil! I'm a legitimate Chinese citizen!"

Bai Ge nodded thoughtfully, "I understand, you traitor."

"I fucking..."

If it weren't for the fact that the water in his brain was about to boil from anger, and that being out of his original form meant he couldn't use magic, he would have really wanted to summon a vengeful ghost to kill this idiot.

"The last centenarian blond Egyptian man who was only left with a head and caused trouble didn't even leave behind his ashes."

Bai Ge picked up the scalpel and black pen from the ground and began drawing dotted lines on the man's face, saying as he did so, "Young man, I'm afraid your death will be more unimaginable than you think."

"Wait, what do you want to do?!"

The composed middle-aged man panicked, yelling, "Stop! Don't come any closer!"

"I audited a few classes at a plastic surgery college before, and I even performed double eyelid surgery on a sow when I was a veterinarian, but I've never tried it on a living person's face. Today, I'm going to give you a full European-style double eyelid surgery."

The man-shaped balloon, who had initially intended to remain silent, finally panicked, coughing violently until his nasal cavity was practically spewing out cerebrospinal fluid. He trembled as he said, "I...I'm willing to cooperate! I'll tell you everything! I'm a member of the apocryphal school of thought, I have important intelligence on me! I want to become a witness for the prosecution, I need protection! Cough cough cough, I can't breathe!"

The human-headed balloon's face contorted in pain as it cried out, "Brother, hang in there! Make sure you give us all the information before you die!"

As he spoke, he grabbed the balloon with the human head on it and ran out quickly. He also took out an oxygen mask from his backpack and put it on the balloon's face.

"hehe."

The human-headed balloon watched the other side busily working, a cold smile creeping across its face. It seemed these guys truly believed it possessed secret information about the apocryphal school of thought.

The human-headed balloon is planning to create chaos and escape later. It has a secret trump card, but it's thinking of taking a few more players from the Special Affairs Bureau with it.

Every official player is a thorn in the side of their organization.

The human-headed balloon took a few deep breaths and gradually calmed down. Although his brain was a little sluggish from having toilet water in it, he still belatedly realized that something was wrong.

He rolled his eyelids upwards and asked through the oxygen mask, "Brother, this oxygen doesn't taste right?"

"Sigh, there's nothing we can do, we've run out of oxygen."

Bai Ge said calmly, "So I can only give you some natural gas as an emergency measure."

"..."

The balloon-shaped figure with the oxygen mask on paused for a moment, then asked in a low voice, "Have you ever thought about submitting your resume to the underworld, to be responsible for carrying a lantern and leading the way to the eighteenth level of hell to torture serious criminals?"

Police sirens sounded downstairs, and soon footsteps could be heard moving in the hallway.

The human-headed balloon's expression changed drastically as he realized that other players might also be there. After inhaling natural gas, his consciousness began to blur. He forced himself to hold on for the last breath, suddenly broke free from his restraints, bit his lip, and spat out a mouthful of blood.

Bai Ge thought it was poisonous blood and instinctively kicked the human head balloon away. Unexpectedly, the human head balloon flew away with the force of the kick.

The human-shaped balloon, freed from its restraints, flew out the window, revealing a ferocious, maniacal laugh. "Hahaha, didn't expect that, did you? This is my escape route! When I get back, I'll curse you all to death!"

To avoid being discovered, the human-headed balloon also used props to split into four or five clones, each escaping in a different direction.

However, the next second, the expression on the head balloon's face froze. He saw that the other person had somehow acquired an RPG rocket launcher.

"Wait a minute, where did he pull that rocket launcher out of? Is it some kind of four-dimensional chrysanthemum?"

However, upon further reflection, a cold and desperate thought surfaced in my mind.

Could this guy be a hidden hunter player as well?

Wait, why is he ignoring the other clones and locking onto me directly?

Then the human-headed balloon discovered that its entire body was enveloped in a faint blue light.

Damn it, I've been tagged?

Bai Ge pulled the trigger, and the rocket was launched directly, unaffected even by the scorching exhaust smoke, blasting the human-shaped balloon into a sky full of sparks, like a blooming firework.

Section Chief Xing, who ran over with the Special Affairs Bureau's mobile team members, was stunned by what he saw.

The man in uniform next to Chief Xing nudged his shoulder and whispered, "Old Xing, what's the background of this guy you brought back?"

Section Chief Xing turned around, hesitated for a moment, and then whispered, "If I'm not mistaken, Mr. Bai must be a notorious Paradox Interactive player."

Chapter Sixty-Four: Mission in the Underworld

First update

All residents were asked to leave the apartment building, and a cordon was set up more than 50 meters away from the scene. The entrances and exits of the community were taken over and guarded by the police, and unauthorized personnel were strictly prohibited from entering or leaving.

Wearing gas masks and heavy radiation protection suits, the staff split into two groups. One group used Geiger counters to collect the remaining fragments, while the other group sprayed dust suppressants and carefully collected all the radioactive body parts on the ground, placing them in sealed lead containers, sorting and classifying them before taking them away.

The staff from the Special Affairs Bureau outside the cordon were whispering and discussing among themselves.

"What the hell is this thing that's broken into several pieces? It's disgusting."

"With nuclear radiation, and coming from Japan, and I heard that feces were detected in their mouths, isn't this obviously a Tokyo shit eater?"

"Although not at the same time, were they all dismantled from the same post?"

One of them had a look of sudden realization on his face, "So everyone is Lao Ba (Old Eight) after all."

As Bai Ge passed by the others, everyone instinctively avoided this guy who appeared to be a Paradox Interactive player. The Special Affairs Bureau had previously heard about the various underhanded tactics employed by certain Paradox Interactive players who had become "player hunters" in the game.

The game requires players to play hide-and-seek with vengeful ghosts in an abandoned building, or to simply blow up the building to complete the level. It also requires players to escape from an asylum insanely insane place run by a deranged serial killer, only to leisurely stroll out after eliminating all the patients in the asylum. The player does absolutely nothing related to humans, yet performs every task in the underworld without missing a single moment.

Bai Ge found an excuse to leave the locked-down community. Due to the special nature of his identity, the Special Affairs Bureau let him go without saying a word. Even Section Chief Xing said that he would do everything he could to get Bai Ge a free government job.

Bai Ge deliberately chose to walk through deserted alleys and streets, and only slowed down after confirming that there were no special agents or enemies following him. He then opened the system taskbar.

You have a new task order, please check it.

Bai Ge opened the taskbar without hesitation.

[Teamwork Task: Walking the Underworld]

[Task 12: You are required to arrive at Yinyuan Mountain before midnight to meet up with the other two players, Wenliang and the Witch]

"It's another team-based mission, and this time the mission location is actually in Yinyuan Mountain."

The rewards for team-based missions are not announced in advance. Just like the previous Inn of Human Skin mission, after Bai Ge completed the mission, in addition to a lot of experience points, the mission reward was a rare item called [Providence Eye Replica]. It can see through the illusions and tricks cast by the opponent and peek into the secrets deep in the opponent's heart. Because it is only a replica, it cannot peek into the secrets of high-level players.

After all, nobody wants their secrets like "I like to smell my toes after picking them" or "My premature ejaculation has gotten worse lately" to be widely known.

Bai Ge had long heard of the legends surrounding Yinyuan Mountain, located deep within a forest park northwest of Xuchang. Legend has it that it is the place where Yin and Yang meet in Xuchang. Every year, there are hikers who do not believe in such things and go there to conquer nature. By the time the search and rescue team finally arrived at the scene, all that was left was a video.

The words "going to the underworld" made Bai Ge wary. Could it be that this mission would involve going to the underworld?

Bai Ge instantly perked up. If the system gave him a task like this, he wouldn't be sleepy at all.

After confirming the start of the mission, Bai Ge's appearance had already been automatically modified by the system. Just in case, he still took out the incomplete ancient god's umbilical cord from his inventory.

The constantly wriggling umbilical cord, like a leech covered in dense whip-like hairs, rubbed against Bai Ge's arm affectionately, like a playful kitten, trying to please its owner. Then it made a cut on Bai Ge's arm and burrowed into his body.

If I were to truly become an unspeakable lord in the future, standing on an altar built of flesh and blood, facing a fanatical believer, I would roar out the twisted desires in my heart, "Transform for me now!"

Bringing her thoughts back, Bai Ge checked the items she needed to carry in her quest log.

What do you need to prepare for meeting up with a female online friend you play games with in person?

Stun baton, got it!

Killer fishing line, got it!

A fragmented ancient god's umbilical cord capable of releasing lethal gamma-ray bursts, get it!

Flamethrower, got it!

……

Boys should always protect themselves when they're out and about. They should always carry Molotov cocktails, quick-acting anesthetics, and quicklime powder. This is a painful lesson learned by his college roommate, who went out to meet a guy he met online and was cornered in a hotel by a 200-pound woman who tried to assault him, but no one helped him despite his desperate cries.

Not far from Yinyuan Mountain Forest Park, Bai Ge set off on a small electric scooter. Along the way, the scenery gradually became desolate, with only streetlights flashing by in the distance emitting a dim yellow light. Moths gathered and fluttered on the lampshades, and finally, only eerie tree shadows swayed back and forth on both sides of the road.

As we drew closer to Yinyuan Mountain Forest Park, the surroundings grew eerily silent, save for the whistling wind. There used to be a small village near the park, but with the expansion of the protected area in recent years, the villagers had gradually moved away. Only the old tile-roofed houses nestled beneath tall ancient pine trees along the roadside still had lights on in their windows.

The old wooden door was opened with a sickening sound, and a hunchbacked old man dressed in white walked out of the tiled house, carrying a basin of water.

When she saw Bai Ge riding his electric scooter late at night, she stared at him as if she had seen a ghost, her eyes wide and her face pale. She quickly waved her hands to urge him on, "Young man, are you out of your mind? You dare to come to Yinyuan Mountain so late at night? Go back now."

The old woman said impatiently, "This old woman is too old to lie to you. This mountain really can eat you alive!"

"Do not worry."

Bai Ge stopped his electric scooter and said confidently, "Back then, I had my fortune told by a very accurate blind fortune teller named Zhang Banxian. He said I have an extremely strong destiny and will definitely live to the end."

The old woman's lips twitched, and she didn't know how to respond for a long time. She could only slowly say, "How can you believe in fortune-telling nonsense?"

Bai Ge shook his head and said seriously, "Because I brought a knife to the blind fortune teller back then. If he ran away when he saw me, it would prove that his predictions were inaccurate."

For God's sake, a blind person would run away as soon as they see you!

"...Young man, you'd better watch yourself. If you encounter a stranger waving at you in the mountains, don't go over."

Unable to persuade Bai Ge, the old woman could only silently shake her head and turn back into the house.

"Oh, by the way, grandma, you're here..."

As Bai Ge continued riding his electric stove, a few questions suddenly occurred to him, and he quickly turned around to ask them. Behind him, however, was only darkness and endless wild grass.

There was no trace of the tiled houses under the ancient pine trees by the roadside, only a dilapidated old tombstone, and the old photo on the tombstone looked exactly like the old man we had just seen.
