Lin Ye sighed. He felt that if he closed that eerie box, this simulation should end, but he couldn't close the box.

'The box is already 3/4 open. Did those two people before open it?'

'No, it should be that the box being opened triggered an anomaly, which is why we were sent here.'

'Closing the box requires some kind of energy. Does opening the box also require some kind of energy?'

'Could it be that those two D-level personnel and the captain unknowingly provided the energy to open the box?'

'Then, if I went in first, would I be able to easily close the box?'

Soon, the prison van stopped in front of the villa again.

The figure opened its eyes, its blood-red pupils glowing faintly in the darkness.

The moment he saw the figure, Lin Ye's body began to decompose into small pieces. These small pieces then twisted and turned around a center point, eventually joining together to form a brand new object.

… … … … …

Buzz buzz buzz… …

[Remaining Simulation Attempts: 6]

Lin Ye stared blankly into space. He didn't actually feel any pain, but a sense of distortion that transcended the nervous system lingered on him, making it impossible for him to even move a finger for a moment.

Fortunately, this sense of distortion quickly disappeared, and Lin Ye was finally able to think normally.

'I can't go in first. Going in first means certain death.'

'I can only try going in second. If that doesn't work either… …'

The prison van stopped in front of the villa. This time, Lin Ye waited for Number 1 to enter the villa before stepping forward and requesting to be the second to enter the villa.

Again, no one stopped him from entering the villa. Lin Ye skillfully put on the helmet and waited for the captain's order.

A few minutes later, the captain ordered Lin Ye to enter the villa. Lin Ye didn't hesitate at all and quickly walked into the villa.

This time, the shadow was no longer in the center of the hall on the first floor. Lin Ye didn't look around aimlessly and went straight for the stairs leading to the second floor.

On the second floor, the black box was placed on the coffee table as before, but the lid was only pushed open less than 1/4.

'As expected, opening the box requires consuming life force. Those ghostly things must have run out of the box.'

Lin Ye didn't waste any time and rushed to the coffee table to try to close the box.

"Wait! What are you doing?"

The captain's voice sounded in the earpiece.

This might really be the captain's voice, or it might not be. Regardless, Lin Ye ignored it.

If he failed again this time, he might have to choose a more radical approach.

The box lid was still cold. Although the 'heat' was not being consumed as quickly as last time, Lin Ye was still gradually losing sensation in his body. Even worse, something seemed to be approaching from behind.

There was no sound, nor any other sensory changes. He could just feel it.

Lin Ye's body began to divide and distort. Fortunately, he could barely feel his body anymore, which allowed him to barely push the box lid closed.

The moment the box lid closed, all sensation disappeared, and Lin Ye also fell to the ground, staring at the dark ceiling, completely losing consciousness.

… … … … … …

[Simulation End]

[Remaining Simulation Attempts: 6]

[Acquired 6 Random Items that Appeared in this Event]

[Acquired Usage Rights for the Abyss Box * 1]

[Acquired Title: Savior]

Lin Ye got up from the bed in the shelter. He didn't feel any discomfort, but when he saw the things in the room, he felt terrible all over.

It was an orange human body reconstruction specimen hanging upside down. The specimen was hung on the wall like a mural, undisguisedly showing itself to Lin Ye.

"Holy crap!!! You can even follow me here?!\n"

Lin Ye was so scared that cold sweat broke out on his back, as if he had just had a nightmare and woke up to see the monster from the nightmare in the real world.

But Lin Ye quickly realized that this should be the item the simulator rewarded him with.

Besides the 'mural', the other 5 items were placed on the floor, respectively: a handgun loaded with bullets, a simple food package, a simple medical kit, a full set of military combat uniforms, and a dagger.

The handgun was a model Lin Ye had never seen before, with ten bullets inside.

The food package contained five energy bars and two cans of energy drinks. There was no ingredient list on them, and Lin Ye didn't know what they were made of.

The medical kit contained three metal syringes, labeled: Emergency, Treatment, Lifesaving, respectively. In addition, there was a roll of bandage, a bottle of anti-inflammatory medicine, and a bottle of painkiller.

The combat uniform fit perfectly and wasn't too heavy. Lin Ye could move freely after putting it on.

The dagger was just an ordinary dagger, and felt like it was of good quality.

Lin Ye opened the system panel and found two prompts inside, one was the Abyss Box Usage Rights, and the other was the title he had just obtained.

[Savior]

[Your actions have saved an area, and your deeds have been spread within the organization]

[Note: Unlock more titles, and as a D-level personnel, your treatment will also increase]

"Ah? Increased treatment? Can't it be raised to C-level personnel?"

Lin Ye was speechless. He wanted to do some less challenging work.

[Abyss Box Usage Rights]

[Can open the Abyss Box once without consumption and obtain an item from it]

[Note: Dangerous item, please do not open it at will]

"This… … won't it give me a monster?"

Lin Ye thought about it and decided to use the Abyss Box. The system information stated that the shelter was absolutely safe, and his talent ability came from the system, so the things opened from this box should not be able to break the system rules.

Absolute safety only lasts for seven days, so it's best to use the Abyss Box now.

Lin Ye directly chose to open the Abyss Box in the system.

A black box appeared in the center of the shelter, looking exactly like the one in the simulation.

The Abyss Box opened automatically, and a large number of strangely shaped things poured out of it, filling the entire shelter.

[Dangerous information detected in the shelter, undergoing neutralization… …]

[Processing completed, please make a choice as soon as possible]

Lin Ye was shocked. The moment the Abyss Box opened, he felt like he had died countless times in various ways, and all kinds of strange and bizarre things filled the shelter.

Fortunately, there was system protection, otherwise he would have been finished now.

After system processing, Lin Ye's shelter now looked like the basement of some movie, filled with various weird and grotesque items.

Bottles of white shiny unknown material, toy animals covered with unknown hair, a penguin with eyes that move, hanging pictures with unreadable content… …

Even Lin Ye's body was covered with butterfly-like creatures. The water-blue wings of these butterflies trembled slightly, as if they were about to spread their wings and fly high.
