The Abyssal Garden: No Room for the Idle-Chapter 123 - 119: Forced to Exit Again

"Seventh District, we've taken it down; next, we'll join forces to assault this blind spot caught in the safe zone... These monsters aren't capable of communication; they can only judge by sound. Set traps in one spot, prepare to encircle and kill in another—it's that simple."

"Do you all understand?"

"Understood, General Commander!"

Su Qi raised an eyebrow lightly, "Call me Lord."

"...Yes, Lord," everyone stammered, their morale dropping by half.

The man rubbed his forehead helplessly; he had been following along these past few days, witnessing not only Su Qi's strength and his incisive strategic ability but also his somewhat deviant personality and way of doing things.

A coalition of many Enhancers was established... with Su Qi as the leader and the General Commander of the Abnormal Clearance Organization.

Under Su Qi's leadership, they charged forward like Thunderbolt, unstoppable.

This wasn't a shot in the dark.

This young man... always managed to find the most crucial point to break through the dense fog of confusion.

"Anyway," the man coughed. As the deputy and also a respected figure among the many Enhancers, he helped Su Qi coordinate.

"This is our Pure Land, our home; we absolutely cannot let those monsters invade. The time has also come for us to counterattack..."

He spoke to rally everyone's confidence and passion.

The eyes of multiple Enhancers shone brightly, filled with excitement.

And just then.

A message box suddenly popped up in front of Su Qi.

[The instance portal is now connected; player Su Buxian may now leave this world safely.]

Su Qi's pupils stirred.

Now... But never mind that. Although the Spiritual Ability Points have been greatly increased, there is still room to grow. Even if the buffs were retracted... the group of Enhancers he had gathered over the past few days and the momentum he had built were enough to continue his increase in strength, just at a much slower pace.

Dismiss.

And the next moment.

Another message box popped up before Su Qi.

[Given the numerous anomalies in this instance, leave this world immediately?]

?

Again.

No!

Su Qi made his choice at once. His instance... was completely different from others.

The other instances wouldn't have any kind of main storyline; the places players entered were usually completely collapsed worlds—that is, where monsters were everywhere, and danger lurked at every turn.

Players could at best fight for their lives to collect Spiritual Energy Points... and also find opportunities to replenish Physical Strength. There were hardly any safe places in a completely collapsed world...

It was said that if the time was too long, the Paradise System would actively interfere, exposing the player's location... increasing the difficulty.

And he not only entered by mistake but also caught a buff and glitched out a BUG. He was on the verge of creating a legacy; how could he possibly leave now?

But.

The Paradise System issued another warning.

[Considering the physical condition of the player's real body, commencing forced teleportation.]

??

Su Qi was stunned. What did that mean?

[Teleport countdown: 60 seconds]

Watching the unstoppable countdown, Su Qi narrowed his eyes and slowly stood up, looking at the people in the hall.

"Fellow fighters."

"It seems that what follows is the last message I'll be able to convey to you."

The man beside him was startled.

What did he mean?

"You lack neither courage nor strength. In this city filled with death, anger, unwillingness, and despair have already unleashed your potential."

"What you need is a hope that can turn the situation around, unite you all, and give you the courage to take a stand."

"I dare not say what I have brought to you, but as for the current situation... I've done all I could."

So Qi said softly, "So now, it's time for me to leave."

The pupils of the many Enhancers quivered slightly, "Leave? Why? Where to?"

Su Qi spoke calmly,

"I am not from this world. I merely brought the flame of The Hustlers to this world. Although this flicker of hope is slight, I hope it can ignite the darkness and bring forth light. I hope you will keep it in your hearts and pass it on."

"My friends, I wish you good luck."

His words had barely faded.

When the teleport countdown also reached zero.

In full view of everyone in the hall, Su Qi's form turned into particles of light and gradually dissipated!

The many Enhancers gaped in shock.

In the years to come.

The Abnormal Clearance Organization covered the entire world, resisting any Pollution-induced anomalies, with more and more powerful individuals emerging.

And the events of this night, along with the words and disappearance of this being... would be deeply etched into the annals of history!

-----------------

[You have successfully left the instance]

[Endless Slaughter Mode matchmaking entry has been closed, cooldown time: 20 days and player sequence reaching 9]

[You have obtained 13208 Spiritual Ability Points]

[Note: Spiritual Ability Points are used for initiating Transcendence, Professional Ascension, Professional Attribute Upgrades, and other functions]

"What a pity, if only I had more time."

Su Qi muttered, "I... could have farmed fiercely."

However.

What Su Qi was more concerned about was that line from the Paradise System: "Considering the player's real-life physical condition."

Anomalous instances... could actually affect the physical body in reality....

He felt something was not right.

And at this moment.

In his Personal Space... functions like matchmaking, friends, mailbox, etc., were all dimmed, it seemed as if Su Qi was temporarily not allowed to use them, only the logout button was faintly glowing.

"Fine then."

Su Qi also felt a bit weary.

Wait.

Su Qi was stunned for a moment. Weary?

This is Personal Space, inside the game, how could he feel weary?

He exited the game.

The instant he returned to reality... that is, the moment he left the game pod, Su Qi felt a dizzy spell, his body extremely weak and powerless.

??

This sensation was like his body had rusted, giving him a feeling of non-compliance.

Su Qi's expression was somewhat stunned, and he even had to wait a moment before he could operate the game pod's door to stand up.

And at the same time.

His stomach also rumbled, a strong sense of hunger and thirst... welled up from his belly.

"....."

He roughly guessed what had happened,

Staggering, Su Qi opened the fridge, took out a bottle of mineral water and drunk some. Then, he took out several slices of bread and ate them.

Only then did he feel much better.

"How long have I been lying here?"

Su Qi picked up his phone and let out a faint breath, "As expected... the same amount of time passed in that instance as in reality, they were synchronized."

Is this what they call an anomaly?

No wonder... it's so dangerous. Even if not killed, being trapped inside could be disastrous in real life.

Su Qi even discovered.

The Paradise intelligence had used his phone to reply to every person who had messaged him.

Liu Yishou was full of solicitude, frequently asking about the state of his Black Shadow.

Left Hand's message came the next day, excitedly saying he had reached level 20 and farmed over 500 Spiritual Ability Points in Endless Mode.

Yan Nanque and others had also sent messages.

The AI responded perfectly, without any slip-ups detected in the game. Of course... it must have hidden itself well.

"Damn game..."

Su Qi, feeling the hunger and weakness in his body, swore, "No wonder it kept urging me to leave, no wonder... staying too long in Endless Slaughter Mode would expose player locations, increasing the difficulty."

He replenished his energy with some sugary water and heated up some ready-to-eat meals from the fridge. After wolfing them down, he finally regained his strength.

His phone vibrated slightly.

Su Qi picked it up to see.

It was a message from Yan Nanque, "Brother Su, what's with you these past few days? You've changed, speaking politely, refusing invitations, and even avoiding collisions in the game."

"You..."

He hesitated, "You couldn't be in love, could you?"

Su Qi: "..."

He looked through the chat logs, astonished at how the damn Paradise AI had actually managed to converse back and forth, and even came off as polite.

Su Qi only replied with four words:

"Love my ass, spill it."

"That's more like it." Yan Nanque was relieved, "There's a game patch update today, did you know?"

"?"

"Seems like they found a serious bug, the service was urgently suspended. They're fixing the synchronization between the game and the instances, and they appear to be making some changes."

Su Qi's eyebrows raised.

Why did he feel like this had something to do with him? A fix right after he logged out?

"Additionally."

Yan Nanque excitedly said, "The Transcendence System was also enabled straight after this minor update!"

"I got to level 20 last night, farmed over 200 Spiritual Ability Points from Endless Slaughter, and now I finally have a use for them!"
