Marry the NPC with Money, Wife Comes Knocking - Chapter 153

Chapter 153

[Game dungeon “Church of the Believers” has opened. Online players: 1. Player Hua Suihe, please kill all Believers inside the church. Note: If the Believers are not eliminated, you will be unable to leave the game dungeon. Please actively complete your mission. We wish you a smooth clear.]

There were no side quests, nor were there any rules she had to follow. She was the only player in the dungeon, so this mission fell on her alone.

Hua Suihe was transported into a small room. There was nothing inside but a bright lamp hanging overhead. Before her stood a door, and on the door was a mirror. The moment she lifted her eyes, she met her own gaze in the reflection.

[The stream’s on? Is this a new dungeon?]

[We still don’t know what happened after that Safe Zone last time. What happened after the aging robot exploded?]

[Where is this? Is Hua Hua spacing out?]

[Got startled by how pretty Hua Hua looks in the mirror. Missed you, Hua Hua~]

[Feels like something’s missing. Where’s Ye Susheng?]

Hua Suihe lowered her eyes slightly and raised a hand to the doorknob in front of her. At the same time, the Black Cotton clinging to her instantly darted out, wrapped around her wrist, and pulled her hand back.

The rest of the black mist completely blocked the doorknob, and the mirror on the door was covered by the black mist as well, preventing her from seeing her own reflection.

“Let me out.” Her voice was slightly hoarse. Her eyes had already reddened uncontrollably, and a sheen of tears had gathered in them.

The black mist could sense her emotions. It carefully rubbed against her face, wanting to catch her tears.

Hua Suihe was much calmer now than she had been at home. It was only that her eyes were a little out of control, wanting to cry.

This was the World Eye. This place had become a dungeon, which meant it had become a Polluted Zone caused by Thriller Contamination. It had to be Ye Zi’s doing.

Now the stream was on, she had just explained things to Gu Gu, and the items in her backpack could be used. Everything was developing according to what she had envisioned.

As long as she found Ye Susheng, she could go look for Xia Moyi.

The black mist was as stubborn as its main body. No matter what Hua Suihe said, it was impossible for it to give way. But now, it could not stop Hua Hua. Her hand passed right through the soft Black Cotton, and she easily twisted the doorknob open.

With a click, the door opened.

Seeing this, the black mist anxiously tangled around Hua Suihe’s legs, trying to drag her steps to a halt. But all of it was useless.

This was the power of money from the three-dimensional world. She had used an item called “Treat as Nothing,” directly becoming immune to the black mist’s entanglement and touch.

Black Cotton Candy could not attach to Hua Suihe’s body. It could only circle around her, so anxious it was about to start talking.

Only after stepping through that door did she see what the interior of the World Eye looked like.

Although the dungeon called this place a church, it was not the kind of church people usually imagined. This was a place where humanity’s most advanced technology converged. Suspended in the center of the great hall was a transparent sphere three stories tall, glowing with a faint blue light.

She was standing in a long corridor lined with many rooms. At this moment, wails rang out without end. Someone rushed out of a door, crashed into the corridor railing, and without the slightest hesitation, flipped over it and fell.

This was the second floor, so the fall would not kill him. The man lay on the ground, writhing like a worm, looking utterly agonized.

Someone screamed, “It’s Thriller! Thriller has descended! Our fate can be changed!”

“Great god, I am your Believer!”

He was clearly in so much pain that he was rolling on the floor, staining the pristine white tiles with chaotic splatters of blood, yet he did not care at all. He kept muttering under his breath, as if possessed by madness.

And there were no small number of people like him.
Their bodies were undergoing Anomalization. In areas polluted by Thriller Contamination, humans would turn into Anomalies, just like the scene she had seen in the movie theater. Once they endured the painful period of Anomalization, they would become Anomalies through and through.

And these people were the Believer targets mentioned in the mission-the ones she needed to kill.

Right now, Hua Suihe did not want to waste time on them. She had something more important to do.

Seeing that the black mist was still clinging to her and doing something completely useless, Hua Suihe spoke to it as gently as she would to Ye Susheng when she was throwing a tantrum. “Be good. I missed you. Take me to see you, okay?”

“You’ve already completed your mission to protect me, and Ye Zi has finished the task I gave her too. Now it’s time for us to meet up.”

The black mist, without its main body, was clearly a little slow as well. After hearing Hua Suihe’s words, it led the way in front of her without the slightest hesitation. Since it could not wrap around Hua Hua’s wrist, it did not dare move too fast either, afraid Hua Hua would not be able to keep up.

Following its guidance, Hua Suihe took the elevator. The elevator was extremely fast. She pressed the floor button, and almost the instant she lowered her hand, the doors opened, delivering her to the eighteenth floor.

After they arrived, the black mist was close enough to the main body that it was uncontrollably recalled. Before Hua Suihe could react, the black mist dispersed before her eyes, leaving no trace behind.

But now that she knew Ye Zi was here, finding her would not be difficult.

There was very little wailing on this floor. She could vaguely hear people stifling groans of pain, while the Believer declarations were spoken in perfect unison.

The bodies sprawled on the floor had become distorted. The moment they noticed Hua Suihe, they lunged toward her like zombies.

Hua Suihe used a teleportation talisman card, moving through corner after corner. The situation was too chaotic right now, and she could not very well take out a megaphone and shout everywhere, so she could only search one place at a time.

In the central hall, the light orb hovering in midair, identical to the one downstairs, suddenly flickered several times. Ye Susheng’s figure abruptly appeared within the screen of light.

As if sensing something, Hua Suihe stopped in her tracks and turned to look at the light orb.

Ye Zi…

Ye Susheng was wearing a black Gothic-style short dress. Red cracks glowing with crimson light crisscrossed her skin, and her white hair moved without wind. The black mist had become a deadly scythe in her hand. Her pupil-less red eyes gazed into the void, as though meeting Hua Suihe’s stare.

The only emotions in those eyes were indifference, bloodlust, and a few traces of smug madness.

Ye Susheng was not inside the light orb, but she truly was looking at Hua Suihe from afar.

It was not the gaze one gave a lover. It carried lofty disdain.

Her lips parted slightly, and she silently mouthed a few words.

Finally, I see you, Creator.

[Holy crap, is this our Ye Susheng?]

[Is she looking at Hua Hua? She is, right?]

[Did they break up?! No, seriously, how do you break up after not seeing each other for one day?]

[Pah, pah, pah! How could my ship possibly have a bad ending? There has to be something else going on.]

[Is Hua Hua looking for Ye Susheng? Things don’t look right now. I’m worried it might get dangerous…]

“It’s Them! They have come! Our god has come!”

“O god, it is you who brought me new life. I am your loyal Believer!”

“Have I waited long enough? Thriller descends, the rules are rewritten, life becomes eternal…”

“Thriller descends, my life everlasting!”

The cheers made one’s scalp crawl, each cry louder than the last. Those newly Anomalized Anomalies dragged their tattered bodies forward and knelt in devout worship toward the light orb suspended high in the center.

Ye Susheng seemed not to hear them. Her gaze still fell on Hua Suihe.
