The Gentleman at the End

Using the Purple Lung as a foundation, the temporary constructed Heavenly Venerate avatar said, "With your abilities, you should be able to easily transcend the subspace... We will head to a world that is closest to the sick focus and linked with the main material plane, through the teleportation gate there, we can directly reach the main material plane."

Yi Chen asked further, "In the future, will it also directly connect to the Pathology World?"

"Most likely it will. If your batch of 'new recruits' performs well, the progress of linking worlds will be comprehensively accelerated... After all, the sick focus is a rare living world and possesses infection and aggressiveness, requiring long-term world evaluation before establishing a connection.

But now, the situation is special, malice has already spread across the entire plane. Thus, if this recruitment goes smoothly, it's estimated we can establish the teleportation gate within a year or two, and at that time, you can return anytime."

"World evaluation, huh?

From my experience as a death row inmate, those Patients whose bodies become deformed due to the illness, their Hearts are much better than the humans in the main material plane who are perfectly Clean.

Most Patients show their true faces, unlike those people who wear multiple masks every day. The world I lived in was truly sick."

The Heavenly Venerate avatar wanted to say something but ultimately did not respond, accelerating into a dive, entering the subspace zone through the torn rift between Worlds.

After several hours of traversal, neither Art nor Lorrian suffered any harm from the chaotic turbulent streams of the broken space.

Buzz! Under the lead of the old Purple Lung, they penetrated out from another edge of the subspace.

The pitch-black before them was immediately replaced by a world filled with dense greenery,

On a ginseng-shaped planet live entities who control plants, even combining their genes with plants, with divine status also shrouding them, numerous plant-related divine statues are scattered across the world.

The arrival of Yi Chen, an entity related to Death, and Lorrian, the Origin of the Moon Transformation Disease and a chaotic combination, immediately caused the plants of the entire world to feel instinctive fear, awakening Divine Envoys slumbering in the depths of various Maya-like structures, as if facing a great enemy.

But upon seeing the elderly leader, they knew the other party was just a passer-by.

"Abundant life force..."

"So many experimental materials..."

Yi Chen and Lorrian each gave different assessments, finally landing under the guidance of the old Purple Lung in the central square of the largest city in the world.

A modern gate, vastly different from the city's style, stood in the central square.

The Purple Lung elder's Heavenly Venerate status here is supreme, able to use the teleportation gate without anyone's permission.

"Where are we going?"

"To the center of the plane, the most advanced city where technology and theology are perfectly merged, the meeting point of all divine rank planes, the place of descending God.

[The Body City]

Previously, only those with attained divine status, or Gods, were qualified to live there using an 'avatar carrier'. Now, the situation is special, allowing recruits from all worlds marked as [S-grade] and above to reside therein, enjoying various high-level treatments, obtaining faster advancement in a short time, assisting us in suppressing rampant malice together.

Of course, this S-grade rating isn't something you can achieve just by defeating an avatar carrier on a platform. Upon reaching the Body City, high-end equipment will verify your potential."

Yi Chen still had a question, "Elder... senior, should I first go to this Divine Body City, or should I return to my original [world] first.

After all, my original physical body is still imprisoned in the depths of that world, performing 'consciousness transfer' as a death row inmate."

"I'm sorry, that world has already been consumed by malice within three years, and the entire world has fallen apart. Your physical body is just an external shell, now that you exist here, you are the key, whether or not to retrieve it does not matter."

"What?!"

Yi Chen, though not too attached to the world of his previous life, only desired to see the ruins of the orphanage.

"The extent of malice's proliferation was beyond imagination, otherwise, we also wouldn't need comprehensive recruitment or even venture to an inherently unstable and edge-located world like the 'sick focus'.

Let me answer that statement you mentioned before transcending subspace: why did your previous life world feel filled with malice.

The world you were born into was, in fact, a world created by combining the highest current technology of the main material plane with theological assistance, called a [Simulated World].

The Simulated World possessed the most averaged living parameters across the plane, be it gravity, air composition, species distribution, all in a balanced state.

Naturally, we would not exert great effort to create a world for ordinary people to live in without meaning; the Simulated World was more like an avant-garde experimental field, a place to help us filter talents or find efficient filtering methods.

We would implement some training concepts that are difficult to evaluate and need real-world testing in the Simulated World.

As long as a recognized talent emerges from the Simulated World, all organizations related to that talent will receive gifts, and the world's importance will increase. It might even have the Simulated World label removed and formally join the main material plane.

However, your Simulated World is among the many simulated worlds, with exceptionally high negative ratings.

The talent cultivation model adopted there is mostly related to oppression, death, and sin. This results in the negative emotions of that reverse world being far higher than in normal worlds, and everyone you encountered was influenced, making you feel like the entire world was filled with malice.

Even though the Simulated World was under our strict supervision, issues still arose.

With the dissemination and leakage of a special videotape in that world, the whole world's order collapsed within a short time, and the Gods sent to attempt to remedy it perished as well."

The corner of Yi Chen's mouth twitched slightly, "I was saying... where did that sickly training mode of the orphanage come from, why would someone invest heavily to maintain such a sickly training institution, ultimately just to get a graduate like me.

Turns out it was you old bastards' idea."

"I, Jin Haohua, the Lung Venerable, express my apologies to Mr. Yi here, and personally, I was not involved in the planning of the orphanage's cultivation protocol you were part of.

Only, looking at the current outcome, it is barely acceptable, Mr. Yi appears to have good character.

Also, I can sense that you, Mr. Yi, carry the will of the entire orphanage on your back."

The elder, through the flow of aura, could glimpse a massive orphanage system in the Dead Sea behind Yi Chen, the dead killed by Yi Chen operating the 'dead orphanage'.

"That's not will, just a continuation of sin. Speaking of which, did just one videotape destroy that world?"

"Exactly, malicious carriers differ too.

The urban legend storybook you defeated was merely the lowest level 'malicious carrier', already suppressed and treated by us.

The videotape carrier that destroyed the world was a higher rank and had thought transmission capabilities, spreading massively and assimilating the world's inherent malice if not discovered promptly. By the time we found out, the situation was virtually irreversible.

We had no choice but to let this Simulated World perish, burying it along with the videotape into the depths of subspace.

In short, once you arrive in [The Body City], you will soon have a comprehensive understanding of malice, and as 'new recruits,' you won't take long to officially go to the 'battlefield'.

Let's go! I'm quite looking forward to your test scores, as well as the reaction of those old geezers who look down on your sick focus when they see you both."
