Chapter 65: Spirit Calamity Game Special Strategic Cooperation Partner (Please Follow for Updates!)

"Our country's modern internal test records began a hundred years ago."

"People were constantly chosen to enter the dungeons, and disappearances grew more frequent day by day, but at that time our country happened to be in turbulent times; these cases did not attract much attention, and people cared more about the current social situation."

"The strangest thing was that during the twenty years of the first internal test, the Spirit Calamity Game could not be known to the outside world; anyone who was not a player and learned of its existence would die mysteriously, just like a virus."

"Only a small number of lucky ones survived and came out of the dungeons, then began to secretly record this matter, hoping to reveal the truth to future generations."

"At that time, the word 'game' did not yet exist."

"They only called it—Spirit Calamity."

Speaking of this, Old Xiezhi's expression became somewhat desolate.

Back then, countless predecessors tried to stabilize the social situation while also facing the irregularly descending Spirit Calamity Game dungeons.

Openly and secretly, they were pioneers who shed blood and gave their lives, planting the seeds of towering trees for us descendants.

Until now, the tree shade is sufficient for cooling off.

Their contributions are indispensable.

Yet few know their names.

"The second internal test was fifty years ago and lasted ten years." Minister Ancheng took over the conversation and continued: "At this time, the existence of the Spirit Calamity Game could already be known normally, but the number of players was small, so the news basically still circulated within the circle."

"Then came the third internal test ten years ago, which lasted only five years, which was when Old Xiezhi and I became players."

"By then, players had basically formed a scale and began to organize themselves, hiding among normal people; we became part of this society."

"Spirit Calamity also acquired the suffix 'game,' and special dungeons such as non-death types and competition types were born."

Having said that, Minister Ancheng sighed.

It seemed he was recalling the bustling years of the past.

He didn't expect that upon looking back, he had already been a player for ten years; truly, the days of youth are gone...

Old Xiezhi did not have such feelings and took over the conversation, saying: "Now is the fourth internal test, which has lasted only two years, and it is also the internal test with the most chosen players."

"The internal test has now ended."

"The Spirit Calamity Game has officially issued a notice that the public test will be held in 50 days; did you not receive it?"

Old Xiezhi was somewhat puzzled.

He remembered that a server-wide announcement had been made just a few days ago!

After hearing the history of the Spirit Calamity Game's arrival, Wu Wang's brain raced to analyze, but on the surface he answered calmly: "Of course I received it."

"Otherwise, I would not have left the deep mountain forest where I spent five or six years recovering from injuries; I just wanted to come out and see what the situation was." His tone was somewhat helpless.

Recovering from injuries for five or six years!

The keywords were immediately caught by Old Xiezhi and Minister Ancheng; they exchanged a glance and confirmed each other's thoughts.

If nothing unexpected happened.

This big shot who looked like a young man should be a player from the third internal test like them, not someone chosen in the last two years.

He suffered heavy injuries for some reason.

He hid to treat himself, constantly clearing dungeons alone, gradually gaining his current strength!

Immediately after, Wu Wang asked some trivial questions, mostly about the current status of players, which made the two of them even more convinced of their judgment.

"Like this... and like this..."

"The situation is as such. By the way, may I ask boldly, is the nightmare-level single-player dungeon 【Record of the Desolate Village】 cleared by you, big shot?"

Minister Ancheng showed an expectant look.

Regarding the other party's questions.

He basically answered everything he knew and left nothing unsaid.

Even for places where his memory was unclear, Old Xiezhi, this rigorous workaholic, would surely check for gaps and make up for them on the side.

Now it was their turn to verify!

"It was me; is there a problem?" Wu Wang raised his eyebrows and asked.

If anything happens, come at me, Yan Shuangying! Do not misunderstand anyone else!

Yan Shuangying holds 【Xiaochuan】!

Professional scapegoat!

"We want to make a deal with you, or rather, represent the Bureau of Abnormal Affairs to reach a cooperation with you." The person who said this was not the always passionate Minister Ancheng, but rather Old Xiezhi, who occasionally checked for gaps on the side.

Wu Wang heard the word "deal."

His whole body was about to get PTSD.

A certain black-hearted penguin involuntarily came to mind.

He subconsciously blurted out: "Deal? I won't recharge Q coins!"

Old Xiezhi: "..."

Not brother! How does your thinking always go off track? How did the style change while we were chatting?

But he still suppressed the urge to complain about Wu Wang and explained: "We want you to provide the completion process of 【Record of the Desolate Village】 as research material for strategies; rest assured, we will also provide a reward that satisfies you."

Nightmare-level dungeons are too difficult to clear.

Therefore, researching them is even more difficult.

This completion process is especially important!

However, Wu Wang's mouth twitched.

He thought about his various maneuvers in the dungeon, the connection between Second Sister and the dungeon, the black-hearted penguin's deus ex machina-like appearance, plus the final exchange between the crying-face monster and the seductive woman.

Damn! The complexity of this single-player dungeon is hard to explain clearly!

There are simply too many things that cannot be revealed; even if I dare to say them, do you dare to believe them?

"Sorry, this dungeon is too dangerous; some of the entities within it could cause spiritual pollution just by being known to you; I do not want to become a sinner."

Wu Wang planned to use the Abyss God as a pretext.

He just needed to make the other party aware of the severe spiritual pollution here so they would back down.

Yet he did not expect that the moment these words left his mouth,

Old Xiezhi and Director Ancheng's expressions instantly lit up with excitement, and in unison they said: "A Nightmare-tier single-player dungeon contaminated by the Abyss?"

Huh? It sounds like you guys know about the Abyss God's contamination?

Before Wu Wang could even react,

Old Xiezhi directly pulled out a phone from his pocket, tapped something open with rapid swipes, and then handed it to Wu Wang, asking in confusion: "Have you seen this thing in the dungeon?"

It was a humanoid giant beast.

Where the facial features should be were two exquisite vertical pupils that made one lose oneself in them; looking closely, one discovered these vertical pupils were not grown, but painted on.

Now it was Wu Wang's turn to be stunned.

Seen? I haven't just seen it.

The Abyss God and I are old acquaintances!

Right now, I even have a simplified condensed version on my wrist, and I'm currently using His account to chat with you guys. What? Want to meet Him?

Guaranteed to make you two grow five tentacles, three ears, one tail, and hairy fish gills.

His stunned expression was naturally observed by Old Xiezhi and the other.

Now, they were even more eager.

This is the first Nightmare-tier dungeon discovered in the current stage to suffer contamination!

Holy crap! The value of this dungeon's walkthrough is still rising!

"Big Shot! Please, you must give us the walkthrough!" Director Ancheng said, somewhat excited.

Wu Wang pondered for a moment.

Finally, he sighed and said: "Inside this dungeon, I barely survived with my life; the value of its completion walkthrough is no less than my beloved family and brothers!"

"You mean you can't do it..."

The other party spoke up to this point.

The meaning of refusal was quite obvious.

A trace of disappointment flashed in Director Ancheng's eyes.

Yet he did not expect that the next second, the other party spoke:

"You'll have to pay more."

Director Ancheng: "Huh?"

Wu Wang raised an eyebrow and repeated: "You want to pay more? If you don't understand, I can translate it for you—I need to reasonably increase the value based on the macroeconomic regulation of the current situation."

"As the saying goes—raise the price on the spot!"

He had figured it out.

The walkthrough wasn't something he couldn't give.

He just needed to hide the parts that couldn't be revealed and make up some content himself, right?

Even if the Bureau of Abnormal Affairs found something inconsistent after studying it, he could still argue his way out of it—

It was all the fault of the Abyss God's contamination!

The representative of the Sun Bar in the new era!

Just blame any bad thing on the Abyss God!

"Then what do you need? Items? Or equipment? Or perhaps you want the Bureau of Abnormal Affairs to do something for you? Don't worry, we'll calculate the extra payment separately; the things you deserve will absolutely not be lacking."

Old Xiezhi asked in detail from the side.

But the next second,

the other party's answer was once again unexpected.

"The requirement for the extra payment is—you help find a Nightmare-tier team dungeon that hasn't started yet, and tell me the method of entry."

Wu Wang said expressionlessly.

Old Xiezhi was also dumbfounded, instinctively making a sound of confusion: "Huh?"

Wait, buddy!

Who chases after entering Nightmare-tier dungeons!

He didn't know this was the method Wu Wang believed could raise his strength the fastest, nor did he know the other party was eager to become strong enough to blow the Disaster Cult's dog heads off.

He only knew one thing—this behavior was suicide!

Are Nightmare-tier dungeons entered just like that?

How many lives do you have? So arrogant!

"You... aren't joking?"

Wu Wang took a bottle of cola from his backpack, took a shallow sip, and said disdainfully: "I never lie."

I! The world's only designated Immortal, the driver of the Abyss God's account, a special strategic cooperation partner of the Spirit Disaster Game, a retreat-drum expert and part-time contrarian master.

What's wrong with wanting to speed-run a few Nightmare-tier dungeons to level up? Do you guys have an opinion on that?

Isn't it just that I'm only level 6 myself?

Looking down on me so much?

Then I really have to clear a few more Nightmare-tier dungeons to show you!
