He casually shoved the Spirit Tribulation protagonist into the core of the Sky Tower, without the need for any Sealing, as Qin Muye had already knocked some sense out of him.

It was akin to having the Heroic Spirits still around, but their collective consciousness had vanished, so it essentially reverted to its primitive state of Spirit Tribulation, albeit slightly better since the Heroic Spirits were still there.

There’s no need to worry about anyone releasing this thing; Qin Muye was waiting right here.

The reason he dared not use Sealing or other means to take him prisoner was that he feared it would be judged as having survived the cataclysmic main mission.

The situation was simple: as the catastrophe had already begun, to stop it would naturally be considered as having overcome it.

As for not getting through… well, if everyone’s gone, what’s there to question?

So, Qin Muye could only deal with it temporarily.

“This counts as exploiting a rather moderate BUG, I guess. After all, it probably never occurred to anyone to personify the cataclysmic end.”

A regular Lord certainly wouldn’t come up with such things, let alone anticipate such a deep connection between the apocalypse and the protagonist. Only someone like Qin Muye, who had been exploiting protagonists for ten years, could pull off something like this.

Besides, a normal Lord would have completed the task and left long ago, not stay for ten years.

“Black Hand, Spirit Tribulation Suppression complete, plan change, initiate construction of Dimensional Reaction Extraction Factory in all areas,” Qin Muye notified Black Hand.

There had been quite a few changes to the original plan.

Firstly, with the Spirit Tribulation, Qin Muye had planned to clear out the Heroic Spirit Land, and during that process, needed the protagonist to help fend off the Spirit Tribulation to avoid too much damage to the real world.

Unexpectedly, he soared to the sky in one step and resolved it all, pressing both the protagonist and the Spirit Tribulation into the Sky Tower.

In a way, the protagonist did help withstand the Spirit Tribulation, although in a different form, but it still counts as having held it off.

“Thanks a lot~” Qin Muye said with great sincerity.

Even though he was the one who caused the disaster, gratitude was due where help was rendered, and polite acknowledgment was the least he could offer.

“Don’t worry, once I finish building the Dimensional Reaction Extraction Factory, I’ll definitely transport you to Prison to enjoy some leisure. Even if you’ve become a vegetable, there will be dedicated Spirit Monsters to take care of you, and you won’t suffer the slightest injustice,” Qin Muye was a great guy.

He mused over how this Spirit Tribulation protagonist was also prime material, thinking that perhaps he could craft some Equipment for him to use.

A combination of Main Character Aura, Spirit Tribulation Mud, and the protagonist should at least yield some Treasure for the protagonist.

Even if it wasn’t a protagonist-specific Treasure, he should also create an Artificial Hero’s Aura for his own enjoyment. Otherwise, every time he enters an instance without the Main Character Aura designed specifically to trip up those without it—even though to Qin Muye the Main Character Aura might seem clumsier than a protagonist’s temporary Skill—if it’s artificial, it could be dismantled.

Once successful, Qin Muye could wear it whenever he wanted and take it off when he didn’t. Besides, how could a knockoff compare to the genuine in effectiveness?

More importantly, he could use this artificial protagonist to indirectly wreak havoc upon the world.

Of course, that was provided he could take away the Spirit Tribulation protagonist; after all, it was part of the main mission content. If his death was required, then Qin Muye would have to reluctantly do the deed.

The Spirit Tribulation protagonist was just one of the materials for his Artificial Main Character Aura, not an essential one. Having him would just save a lot of resources.

As for the result, it would certainly be the same. After all, it would be a forgery, and the materials used wouldn’t make a difference.

The construction work was highly efficient, both in the Heroic Spirit Land and in the real world.

While the Heroic Spirit Land was being constructed by Spirit Monsters, the real world was overseen by the colossal Umbrella Company. Any dissent or objection was met with elimination.

Spirit Monsters didn’t bother with human moralities; their only focus was completing the tasks assigned by Qin Muye, not quibbling with people.

Conflict? Nonexistent; there were only the dead and the living.

The dead who obstructed their path, and the living who did not. There was no third category.

Neither grievances over interests nor pressure from power resulted in Spirit Monster concessions, but in outright Slaughter.

To Spirit Monsters, humans were merely part of the Resources, nothing more. It was just that there was no time for the harvest now.

The resources that had been harvested became known as Skeleton Soldiers.

Of course, it wasn’t without its problems; chaos was a significant issue.

An intact system being interfered with by a violent one was bound to cause disorder; otherwise, there would have been a seamless integration.

Though the Spirit Monsters all disguised themselves as humans, treating a world as an engineering project was undoubtedly not a simple matter, given the magnitude of the conflict.

If it hadn’t been for the fact that it was impossible to harvest all these resources at once, they would have already filled the ranks with labor.

There was no issue with Qin Muye making a move, but why should he? Was he keeping Spirit Monsters just for show?

They might have been less efficient than him, but it wasn’t as though they couldn’t get the job done.

The Spirit Monsters building the Dimensional Reaction Extraction Factory and those harvesting resources were not of the same kind; it was just that they were slower because they needed to cooperate with the engineering Spirit Monsters, not because they couldn’t harvest.

It would be odd to have Qin Muye do the job himself. Which big company would have its boss clean because the janitor didn’t turn up for work?

Even if the boss had the time, that would be ridiculous.

And if security took a day off, would the boss have to fill in then too?

Harvesting resources was neither a major issue nor an urgent matter; it merely needed to be coordinated with the construction of Titan Level Giant Structures. There was no need to rush.

With the state that the Endless Abyss had reached, it wouldn’t make much difference if it was short of one world’s resources. In the end, it would all be directly devoured. Harvesting was really just routine.

“Interesting. Although he’s become a vegetable, it seems there are still instinctive reactions. Worthy of being part of a world,” Qin Muye remarked upon discovering that the Dimensional Reaction Extraction Factory’s commencement might have caused unconscious changes in the Spirit Tribulation Main Character.

It was as if he were hurrying to save the situation, but Qin Muye easily suppressed him.

Lacking strength, even being undying was of little consequence; the outcome was probably worse than that of an ordinary person.

“As it stands, the world’s brain is dead, yet the pre-set System is still functioning. Truly remarkable,” Qin Muye couldn’t help but comment.

The world was a vast System, with civilization, life, and even natural phenomena all being parts of its construction, forming an immense collective world.

Even though there were problems with this world, it continued to grow robustly, though its life might be cut short unexpectedly.

Still, these issues had little to do with Qin Muye, because this world might not live to see its premature demise before Qin Muye devoured it first.

“I just don’t know if I can investigate the world’s operational patterns further through this thing,” Qin Muye mused, pondering whether he should use the remainder of his Star Array quota here.

“Well, since I’m involved here to prevent this thing from playing dead, I might as well study it on the side,” he decided.

Qin Muye felt that his decision to stay had been cautious enough, judging by the looks of it. The thing really might play dead. After all, it was the Main Character, after all, with the Main Character Aura on him. How could it not try to come back from the dead?

And this was no ordinary Main Character.

Qin Muye had always been investigating the world systems, but trying to decode universal rules was somewhat troublesome. It wasn’t that he was incapable of decoding them; it was just that with each world being different, the rules differed, which limited the usability of any analysis.

For example, bringing the Shadow System into the Secret Martial World would go beyond mere applicability issues; it would be a matter of whether people could survive. freeweɓnovel.cѳm

Unless one was immensely powerful like Qin Muye, capable of ignoring universal rules and ensuring compatibility, the result would either be the death of the individual or the collapse of the system.

Moreover, Qin Muye’s Endless Abyss wasn’t truly a world; thus, analyzing it would be fruitless. Transforming the Endless Abyss into the Secret Martial World or the World of Shadows? What would be the point?

It would be meaningless at best; it would be an addition to the data. Yet, since the world was being devoured by him, many issues would thereby be resolved.

“No, I still think studying why the other party can play dead is more valuable than researching the world’s operational patterns,” Qin Muye concluded.

Upon reflection, he realized that world rules weren’t of great value to him currently. He could study them in another world later on. With low universality and poor compatibility, the actions of the other party playing dead were of slightly more value.

Even if he began his research, with just a small portion of the Star Array quota, he probably wouldn’t discover much. Most of his energy was focused on researching the transformation of Territory Traits of Mythical Treasures and building structures within his territory.
