“You think you can fool me, Ying Baiyi, but everything you’re saying is bullshit!” Diana was agitated, and Ying Baiyi’s statements were unraveling her resolve.
Throughout this crisis, Diana had always considered herself an agent of the Administration Bureau, an informant, the strongest one among them.
Although she knew her Spiritual Energy had been excluded, her mental state still dominated.
She touted herself as the most knowledgeable, the one who knew the most among the group, with the equally calm Chen Ke and the action-oriented Sam by her side.
So even though she was injured and had lost all her Spiritual Energy, she wasn’t worried at all and had never been eroded by fear.
Her ability to remain calm and her firm belief in her inevitable rescue depended entirely upon the Administration Bureau.
When a subway had vanished into thin air, the railway transit system would first initiate a search, followed by the County Police’s involvement, and as the situation escalated beyond ordinary control, the Administration Bureau would take over.
Once the Administration Bureau took charge, Diana was certain that they could find a way to pull everyone back from this world.
But that was until she met Ying Baiyi.
He was physically fit, ranked higher than her, and possessed Spiritual Power—making him appear more like an agent than Diana did.
Diana’s position shifted from “the most knowledgeable” to “more knowledgeable,” which began to psychologically pressure her.
Then Ying Baiyi’s statements, whether true or false, completely negated the hypothesis that this world was part of the Great Void; stepping outside of the Great Void, she entered a zone of informational vacuum.
The incomprehensible dark pillar, the departure of Chen Ke and Sam, and the eerie creatures outside were all slowly disassembling Diana.
Eventually, Ying Baiyi’s speculations about time and the world completely shattered her last bit of calm.
No matter where this place was, Diana firmly believed that the Administration Bureau could find a way to rescue them. But if this was the past, even the Spiritual Ability Research Institute would be helpless.
As her psychological advantage crumbled, her nonexistent physical advantage was also exposed, and Diana completely broke down. Standing still was already an incredible feat.
Diana stared at Ying Baiyi, her eyes slightly red and her muscles tensed; she had said her previous statement through clenched teeth.
“I have no need to lie to you, Diana. I’ve simply laid out my speculations. You may not accept them, but if things are indeed like this… you understand my point,” Ying Baiyi said.
Diana choked up slightly, and her hand trembled. She had a gun, but she wasn’t sure whom to shoot, her facial expression a complex mix of emotions.
Knocking down the opposition was Diana’s way of solving problems. But now, the enemy was the entire world.
She felt her fingertips grow cold, her brain buzzing with noise, and her vision filled with clusters of white spots.
Diana knew this was due to overwork and excessive psychological stress causing insufficient blood supply to her brain, resulting in muscular and visual impairment.
She was not an Administration Bureau agent on workers’ compensation, but rather a woman with a dislocated shoulder.
“You need to rest well, Diana. After tonight, we’ll go find the subway, and by then there must be a way back,” Ying Baiyi said.
Ying Baiyi extended his hand to help Diana, who was currently supporting her forehead and looking like she was about to collapse, but she rejected his hand brusquely.
“Don’t treat me like a little girl,” Diana said fiercely, glaring at Ying Baiyi.
Ying Baiyi made a surrendering gesture and smiled, “As you say.”
Diana leaned against the wall, feeling her heart pounding. She took deep breaths to steady her emotions, continuously reciting the Administration Bureau Agent’s Code to herself.
Ying Baiyi could see that Diana was in bad shape, but he didn’t offer any consolation.
“There’s an empty room at the end. I suggest you lie down there for a while; there are still several hours until dawn,” Ying Baiyi said.
Chen Ke and Sam had left 3 hours ago and had not yet returned. Diana was eager to go out and find them, but she also knew she was powerless.
Instead of persuading Ying Baiyi to go out and help, he had instead confused her mind further. Diana internally scolded herself repeatedly. Now, without any strategy, it seemed she could only go to the room to calm down and reset her state.
Diana snorted coldly, turned, and walked towards the small room.
“I didn’t compromise … I didn’t compromise … Okay … I compromised … Damn it …” she muttered to herself, leaning against the wall, feeling her legs trembling.
What if I really can’t go back … What if Chen Ke and Sam died outside … Thoughts like these lingered in her mind, she certainly didn’t want to stay here with Ying Baiyi.
All Diana wanted now was to get a good sleep, preferably waking up to see those two carrying medicine appearing before her. She grasped the doorknob and heard the low moan of a woman in pain and helplessness from inside the room.
“Hey! Ying Baiyi! There’s someone in this room, it sounds like they are severely injured.” Diana frowned and said to Ying Baiyi, regaining some composure in her expression.
“That’s impossible … Wait … Don’t open the door!” Ying Baiyi was startled at first, then suddenly he realized something and yelled to stop her.
But before he could finish his sentence, Diana had already opened the door.
A white object flashed past in front of her, and suddenly Diana felt a chill at her waist and abdomen, noticing four slashes across her jacket and vest, exposing the stark white flesh beneath, and the next moment, blood filled the crevices between her muscles.
“How …” Diana was shocked, her neck was firmly clamped by some wax-like claws, the sentence she was about to blurt out interrupted by a single word with a harsh break.
Suddenly, a monster with black wings appeared in front of her. Its slender limbs and humanoid body seemed to be made of wax, with no facial features on its face, looking incredibly eerie.
It continuously emitted sad and painful low moans, and frantically clawed at Diana’s body with its claws, tearing her clothes and muscles, scratching her all over in just a few seconds.
Diana kicked the monster’s abdomen, but it felt like she had kicked a giant candle, the monster remained immovable, a claw wildly scratching her chest and abdominal muscles, blood and flesh flying.
“Don’t be scared, Diana! Don’t be afraid!” Ying Baiyi’s right hand flickered with purple light, a spear appeared in his hand, and he rushed forward, thrusting the spear into the monster’s body.

The spear pierced through the monster as easily as stabbing into tofu.
He ran towards the end of the hallway with the spear pushing against the monster, clenched his teeth, and fiercely nailed it to the wall.
The monster struggled, trying to pull the spear out of its body. Its waist and abdomen began to regenerate at a visually noticeable rate; however, with the spear still inside, it couldn’t heal completely.
At this point, Diana was lying on the ground covered in blood, her chest and abdomen deeply lacerated, dark red blood gluing her black vest to her wounds, a small pool of blood already forming beneath her.
“How are you? Diana? Can you stand up?” Ying Baiyi looked back at Diana.
“Uh … heh … just flesh wounds … but really painful …” Diana propped herself up with her right arm, enduring the pain.
She felt like her body was about to tear apart from the pain, especially in her abdominal muscles.
She lifted her black vest; her six-pack abs were slashed diagonally by the monster’s claws, resembling six chunks of tofu haphazardly cut.
A gash ran from her left clavicle across to her right breast, like the Grand Canyon in Colorado, continuously bleeding.
“Get up, Diana, we’re in trouble … I can’t take care of you right now.” Ying Baiyi said, summoning a war hammer and began hammering the monster nailed to the wall.
The hammer emitted red firelight, each heavy strike melting the wax on the monster’s body instantly. The monster flapped its wings, wailing continuously, trying to claw at Ying Baiyi, but he methodically chopped off its limbs.
Diana stood up leaning against the wall, like a mop, leaving a trail of blood on the wall.
She took a deep breath, enduring the pain, and pulled out her Luger revolver, glanced at the room she had exited—the window was open, that was how the monster had entered…
She looked back at the other side of the hallway, only to see some survivors peeking out from their rooms, terrified of her blood-covered appearance.
“Lock the doors and windows … Don’t come out!” Diana ordered, and the survivors quickly hid back into their rooms.
She turned back to look at Ying Baiyi; the monster, under the devastation of the war hammer, had dissolved leaving only its head and torso, its wings burned to a skeleton.
“Killing them isn’t easy, I don’t have a Flame Skill or a flamethrower, I can only use this clumsy method …” Ying Baiyi gasped.
No sooner had he spoken than Ying Baiyi suddenly felt something hit him from behind. He was sent flying more than two meters, rolling on the ground before coming to a stop.
Diana looked in disbelief behind Ying Baiyi. As Ying Baiyi spoke to her, she had witnessed something she couldn’t comprehend.
The monster nailed to the wall, its fragmented body producing an afterimage, like a camera shaking during filming causing the subject to blur.
After shaking more than a dozen times, the afterimage suddenly split from the monster’s body with a swish, forming a new, unscathed, identical monster!
