"Please, make me a bit more villainous," the female ghost next to her whispered.
Sang Mian was silent. The corpse's face in front of her was a bloody mess. Wasn't that villain...

"Hello." A clear and familiar voice came from the receiver.
Sang Mian's nose felt sore and tears started streaming down his face.
Lin Buchi frowned when he heard the sobbing sound on the other end of the phone, "What's wrong with you?"
Sang Mian looked up at the sky, trying to hold back her tears. After trying for a long time, she failed. "I have something to ask you..."
Lin Buchi was panicking. It was the first time he heard Sang Mian cry after knowing her for more than a year. He couldn't help but speak softly, "What happened? Did Guiyi bully you?"
"No..." Sang Mian lay on the table sullenly, holding the phone in one hand, "Zhou Jiayi is dead."
Lin Buchi thought for a while and remembered that Zhou Jiayi was the older brother of a pair of twins. They had met several times in the strange hospital. The two brothers had a good relationship with Sang Mian. No wonder she was so sad.
His tone softened, "Did he die in the dungeon?"
"Yeah." Sang Mian sobbed and said, "In order to let us survive, he jumped into the sea and committed suicide. There was no chance for everyone to survive in that copy. One of us had to die. But how old was he? He was the same age as me, but he would never see the sun again."
There is no sun in the Underworld, only a red moon and a gray sky. The monsters in the Underworld have a very poor sense of time, and most of them live in a daze.
Lin Buchi really wanted to return to the Player Guild immediately, as he knew that Sang Mian was under tremendous psychological pressure.
"You died too, but you had a chance to be resurrected. I want to ask if Zhou Jiayi has a chance to be resurrected?" Sang Mian waited for the answer with great anticipation.
Lin Buchi was silent for a long time, then said, "No, I am different from him."
He himself is a different existence, and he realized it from the day he entered the weird game.
He came to the game with a mission. A very important thing was lost. He was not the owner of that thing, but its guardian. Certain memories revived in his mind in the form of dreams.
At that time, there was no rumor that the Silver Ghost Eye could revive the evil god, and there was no rumor that reviving the evil god could gain unlimited wishes. After coming to the strange game, Lin Buchi understood that the Silver Ghost Eye was what he had been looking for. He wanted to bring the Silver Ghost Eye back to the original world. The Silver Ghost Eye did not belong to the Infernal Realm.
"Boy, I heard that you want the Silver Ghost Eye?" San San squinted his eyes, holding a cigarette in his hand, smoking it intermittently.
At the end of the copy, San San asked him.
Lin Buchi leaned lazily against the wall, his head slightly lowered, his hair covering his eyes, giving people a feeling of being powerful and unapproachable.
"Any objections?" Lin Buchi said indifferently.
San San sneered: "You are so fast-paced, where did you hear that?"
Lin Buchi's back stiffened and his eyes gradually became sharp. In the eyes of players, the Silver Ghost Eye was just a prop with unknown function. Except for him, no other player cared about it, and no one would risk their lives to search for the Silver Ghost Eye in underground dungeons. San San's words were very meaningful.
He forced a smile: "Third brother, what are you talking about? I don't understand."
San San threw the cigarette on the ground and extinguished it with her shoe. She looked at him with her black pupils, "Don't think I don't know the function of the Silver Ghost Eye. No wonder you go to dungeons every day. You have a big appetite, don't you?"
Lin Buchi stood up. He was very tall, a head taller than San San. He looked down at San San and said, "Are you crazy or have you not woken up yet? Even I don't know the function of the Silver Ghost Eye, but you know it? Who gave you the courage to question me?"
San San sneered: "I didn't realize you had such a big appetite? Sorry to disappoint you. Now we all know the function of the Silver Ghost Eye, and you can't get it."
The copy was over. After Lin Buchi returned to the real world, he smoked for half the night but still couldn't figure out the meaning of San San's words. Until he entered the game hall, all the eyes looking at him were strange, with expressions of disdain and disgust coming towards him.
Lin Buchi pulled up the hood of his sweatshirt and pursed his lips tightly. He knew that something must have happened during the time he was doing the dungeon.
Finally he heard it in the conversation among the crowd.
I don't know who spread the news, but the Silver Ghost Eye can revive the evil god, and the person who revives the evil god can get all of the evil god's wishes.
Almost all the players in the hall were in an uproar, with desires for wealth, fame, life, etc. gushing out. The deepest things in the players' hearts were hooked out by the Silver Ghost Eye, and a large number of people rushed into the dungeon like crazy to look for the Silver Ghost Eye.
During that period, many people died in the player lobby, the number of players became much thinner, and the wave of going to dungeons came to an end.
Until the appearance of a panel prompt brought the whole thing to a climax. The panel issued a copy notification, which clearly mentioned that the Silver Ghost Eye would be released in this copy. All the players rushed into the copy like crazy again.
He went there too. That copy was the most tragic one Lin Buchi had ever experienced. The players did not target the weirdos, but their teammates. They kept creating scars on their companions' bodies, exposing their human identities to the weirdos. Players died almost every moment.
He joined the struggle and found the Silver Eye at a terrible cost, stepping on the corpses of his companions and the strange ones.
But he did not succeed in bringing back the Silver Ghost Eye. The only way to bring the Silver Ghost Eye back to the human world was the River Styx. He took the ferryman's boat to cross the bottomless sea, but was captured by a group of people led by San San halfway through the journey.
The Silver Ghost Eye, an eye as pure as the Eye of God, stared at him. Lin Buchi hid him on the ferryman's boat. He knew he could not escape, but he was not afraid because the Silver Ghost Eye would protect his body and soul.
Lin Buchi looked at the scene passing by outside the window and said to Sang Mian: "My life was given to me by the Silver Ghost Eye. After completing the mission, it will put my soul back into my body, because I came here for it."
"I understand." It was an expected answer. Sang Mian pulled the corner of his mouth and said bitterly, "Nothing else, I'm hanging up now."
The car stopped at the black building. Lin Buchi got out and looked towards the destination. "Well, don't be too sad. The living have to keep moving forward."
After hanging up the phone, the copy settlement page popped up on the panel.

Although he was very close to the goal of 100 points of weirdness, Sang Mian was not happy at all.
The door of the president's office was pushed open, and Xia Qing and Bai Tang walked in.
Xia Qing's eyes were red, as if she had just cried. After seeing Sang Mian, she cried again. She rushed over and hugged Sang Mian, "Can we really leave this weird game? I don't want to see you and Sister Tangtang die in the dungeon."
Bai Tang felt even more depressed after hearing her crying. Xiao Qing was right. The difficulty of the evil spirit-level copy was so high that they might not survive.
"Don't think too much." Sang Mian touched Xia Qing's head. She had made up her mind that she would not give the Silver Ghost Eye to anyone. If the Silver Ghost Eye could really satisfy everyone's wishes, then she would take Xiaoqing, Baitang and Zhou Jianyi out of the game and live a normal life.
"Let's go find San San to get the map fragment." Sang Mian held Xia Qing's left hand and Bai Tang's right hand. She wanted to see what the item was that attracted so many players and the evil god himself.
The casino is magnificent and gamblers are addicted to the games.
In the private room, San San sat on a chair and sipped tea.
After Sang Mian brought Xia Qing and Bai Tang in, they saw the map fragments on the table.
"You're ready quickly." Sang Mian sat opposite San San unceremoniously, "The things are not right."
San San said with great courage, "You can take it now. With this fragment, you now have three map fragments, right?"
Sang Mian raised her eyebrows. The two photos in her hand were obtained at Xiyue High School, with San San’s spies helping her keep an eye on them. The other photo was given to her by Xi Shi, and no one knew about it except Xia Qing and Bai Tang.
This is a good thing, otherwise San San wouldn’t have given it so readily.
Sang Mian rapped his knuckles on the table, "What do you care how many cards I have? You gave me too little. You still didn't give me three skill cards."
San San was a little depressed: "You are still missing three skill cards?"
Sang Mian: "Why do you care if I need it or not? Take it out now."
San San slowly took out three golden cards and paused as he handed them to Sang Mian. "Do you want to gamble again? This time I'll bet ten skill cards for one map fragment."
"No bet." Sang Mian rejected him without hesitation, and then looked San San up and down: "What qualifications do you have to bet with me? Haha, you are a poor guy, what do you think of a few broken skill cards?"
San San: “…” He walked away angrily, thinking that he had never been insulted like this in his life!
Xia Qing looked at his departing back with hatred, "Damn it, I haven't scolded him yet! He's running so fast, is he in a hurry to be reincarnated?"
"Forget it, Xiaoqing. You can scold him next time." Bai Tang patted her back to calm her down.
The last skill card fell into his palm.
[Congratulations to the player for obtaining a fragment of the Silver Ghost Eye map. All four fragments have been collected. Special rewards are being distributed...]
Are there rewards for collecting all the fragments?
Then the system's cheerful voice sounded in my head.
[Rewards are being distributed... 6 points of Weirdness have been distributed, players can check for themselves...]
[Strangeness: 100/100 (Note: 0 death, please do not let your human identity be discovered)]
[Congratulations to the player for reaching the evil spirit level! ]
Her weirdness value is 100? Sang Mian was a little bit unbelievable. She jumped up from the chair and said excitedly to Xia Qing and Bai Tang: "My weirdness value is 100!"
Xia Qing and Bai Tang were both confused. Xia Qing touched Sang Mian's head and said, "Sister Sang, you are not too sad and stupid, are you? The dungeon only rewards 2 points of Weird Qi."
Bai Tang's expression was indescribable. "Even if Zhou Jiayi died, you can't give up on yourself. You're already hallucinating."
"Really!" Sang Mian grabbed Xia Qing and Bai Tang's hands and shook them continuously, stuttering as he spoke. "Just now, the system said that I had collected four map fragments and rewarded me with 6 points of Weird Qi! Adding the 2 points from the last instance, my Weird Qi is now 100!"
Bai Tang took a deep breath. It felt very unreal. "Just 6 points of reward. It must be God's will..."
"Shit!" Xia Qing's mind was instantly confused. "Only 100 points? Sister Sang has collected enough? Ahhh! My good friend has become a big shot! The kind that even the director isn't afraid of? Hahahahaha!"
Seeing how excited they were, Sang Mian was really afraid that they would suddenly pass out, so she quickly stopped them and said, "I can exchange my [wishes] now. Do you guys want to exchange them?"
“Change it!” Xia Qing slammed the table loudly, and was even more excited than Sang Mian: “Sister Sang, you have always wanted to cure your eyes, and today you can do it! Change it now!”
When it was time to redeem her wish, Sang Mian hesitated. Curing the blindness of her left eye had been her wish since she was a child, but after entering the strange game, she had other things she wanted to achieve, such as letting Xia Qing and Bai Tang leave the game, bringing Zhou Jiayi back to life, or making the game disappear completely...
Too many wishes made it difficult for her to make a decision.
Looking at Sang Mian's hesitant face, Bai Tang gently stroked her hand. She understood the inner struggle of Sang Mian, and said, "Be yourself first, then consider others. Don't regard us as a burden to you, and fulfill your long-cherished wish."
