My System Seems Different from Theirs

“What? You’re saying that even with half a million troops under my command, the Emperor still suspects me of treason?”

“Correct. The host must return to the capital and gradually build up influence....

Chapter 862 Exorcism 17 (2/2)

Fang Zhiyi didn't question their behavior; she just ate and slept, behaving exactly like the NPC characters in Lin Ye's mind.

Three more days passed, and Fang Linjie still hadn't shown up. The system seemed to be affected by this world, and it couldn't give Lin Ye any specific answers to his questions.

The long wait was making Lin Ye a little irritable. He was always praised for his fastest and perfect completion of the game, and now he was becoming increasingly anxious.

This godforsaken place is so uncomfortable; nothing beats living in my own mansion.

"Young Master Lin, are you sure Fang Linjie will come?" a team member asked casually while starting a fire.

“His brother is in our hands, how could he not come?” Lin Ye said.

"But I've heard that people possessed by demons are completely ruthless and don't recognize their own family members."

Lin Ye's eyes flashed coldly: "Then awaken his family ties." He didn't have much patience and turned to stare in Fang Zhiyi's direction.

"This world isn't that big." Fang Zhiyi sat on the ground, sketching a simple map as Xiao Hei had instructed.

Little Black nodded: "This kind of world has no Heavenly Dao, which is why it attracts worlds like the Abyss. Some Heavenly Daos are born during the reconstruction of the world order." As it spoke, it suddenly turned around, "They seem to be studying you."

Fang Zhiyi didn't even bother to turn her head: "Isn't this normal? I'm their bait."

It must be said that although Lin Ye was arrogant, the others in his team were quite meticulous. In order to find out whether Fang Zhiyi was a threat, they tried to get information out of her indirectly. Fortunately, Fang Zhiyi was good at making up lies, which made them believe that she had lost her powers after helping a group of strangers last time and had also gotten rid of the demon's entanglement.

Fang Zhiyi continued drawing a sphere: "Then what kind of existence is the world that Lin Ye and the others live in?"

Xiao Hei mimicked Fang Zhiyi's movements, conjuring a hand to stroke its chin: "A world that wanders everywhere... achieving its completeness through constant connections with other small worlds." It thought for a moment, "This is easier to understand. The humans participating in the game are all chosen by the Heavenly Dao. If they win, they receive rewards, and winning is actually a means for the Heavenly Dao to absorb nutrients from other small worlds, since it interferes with the operation of other worlds. Even if they fail, the Heavenly Dao of that world won't lose out; it will only lose a few task participants."

"The Heavenly Dao of the Plunderers?" Fang Zhiyi clapped his hands.

Xiao Hei was taken aback for a moment, then laughed and said, "This name is accurate."

Fang Zhiyi drew a dozen or so smaller spheres around the original sphere: "In other words, these so-called copy worlds are actually its source of nourishment, and once it's satiated, these worlds will..."

"These small worlds will never give birth to the Heavenly Dao, until they perish," Xiao Hei replied.

"This is quite interesting. The Abyss is one world, the original owner's world is another, their world is yet another, and Lin Ye is a transmigrator, tsk."

"I'll go." Ye Qingjie was no longer as gentle as usual; her face was cold. They had already reached a decision.

"Holy crap, they're not human."

"If you don't like it, go watch your kids' channel."

"Can't I even say a word? Lin Ye and his group are strong, but their methods are just too cruel."

"Brother, we'll die if we're not ruthless."

"But is this approach really appropriate?"

Lin Ye had no idea what the live streamers thought of him, and even if he did, he wouldn't care. He had transmigrated here to enjoy himself, so why should he care about the opinions of those ants?
