Chapter 44: Glimpse of Secrecy
The Evil God of Mobs, the World-Ending Witch!
I, the Hero who Saves the World!
Xia Feng felt that the people of this world should be very grateful to him.
If it weren’t for him instigating, no, if it weren’t for him guiding the World-Ending Witch’s thoughts, he couldn’t even imagine what the future of this world would be like.
“I can choose not to kill this girl.” Mu Qingtong lowered her head, quietly looking at the girl beside her, who seemed to be only eleven or twelve years old. She frowned in doubt, “Even if she doesn’t harm others after waking up, she will still be influenced by the Calamity Disease and self-destruct. You might as well let me kill her.”
“No way,” Xia Feng’s eyes twitched slightly. “Besides, can’t we just cure her Calamity Disease after she wakes up?”
“Cure Calamity Disease?”
Mu Qingtong glanced at him with her light gold beautiful eyes. “Do you think Calamity Disease is like a common mental illness? Mild cases are manageable, but her Calamity Force Value has already reached a high concentration of 58aoc. Even if we send her to the hospital now, it will only maintain her life, and it will be very difficult to cure her.”
“She has only two paths now: either continue to become Evolved and turn into a half-human, half-Nightmare beast. Or, be locked up in a mental hospital and strictly controlled.”
Xia Feng didn’t say anything. He just squatted down and placed his right hand on the girl’s forehead. In an instant, wisps of gray airflow emerged from the girl’s features, dissipating into the air like steaming vapor.
Mu Qingtong’s words paused, and her beautiful eyes narrowed. She also leaned down and used her bracelet to investigate.
“Evolved Value plummeted… only 0.3aoc left?!” she looked at Xia Feng in surprise. “How did you do that?”
Xia Feng clapped his hands, got up, and smiled, “Want to know? Then let me copy your Spirit Artifact.”
Mu Qingtong looked up at the sky, turned around, and walked away. “Someone is coming, we should go.”
“Sigh, really, what’s the harm in letting me copy it~ So stingy~” Xia Feng muttered internally.
Before leaving, Mu Qingtong killed the Illusory Calamity Insect, and the people who were trapped in the illusionary realm suddenly woke up.
The gentle man who had been trying to save the girl tore off the paper stuck to his forehead.
[The girl’s mother was killed by her stepfather. The stepfather is an Evolved and has escaped. The bag contains the corpse of the Illusory Calamity, which can be exchanged for a lot of money.]
Mu Qingtong and Xia Feng didn’t care about the money from the Illusory Calamity Insect, so they left the insect’s corpse behind.
The girl would most likely be sent to an orphanage. However, that would no longer be Xia Feng’s concern.
He looked back at “Aunt Lu’s Bun Shop” in the distance, lost in thought.
In fact, he had already discovered that the white-dressed girl’s stepfather was the owner of the artifact that stored the Boundless Stones in the photo.
After all, the scar on the wrist holding the artifact in the photo was exactly the same as the girl’s stepfather’s.
It seemed that this girl’s stepfather was not simple, and he wondered if he still had any Boundless Stones.
“Hey, where are you going?”
Xia Feng found that Mu Qingtong was not heading away from Blood Calamity Street.
The two had already put on their masks again. Mu Qingtong looked north and said softly:
“Since you didn’t let me kill that girl, I naturally have to find a substitute. That girl’s stepfather is quite good. His Calamity Force Value is very high, and he seems to be a stable Evolved.”
“What kind of experiment are you doing? Why do you need Evolved souls so much?” Xia Feng was somewhat speechless.
Mu Qingtong turned back, smiling, “Do you want to know?”
“Heh~ Actually, I don’t really want to.”
“Oh, then I won’t say.” She smiled lightly and nodded, continuing to walk forward, but suddenly stopped again as if thinking about something.
[Felt the breath of the wind, your understanding of wind-controlling Spirit Robes has greatly increased, and you have successfully mastered the D-class Spirit Robe ‘Air-Treading Steps’.]
Nodding, she took a step and ascended into the air, flying towards the distance.
“…”
Fine, you’re amazing. Xia Feng’s eyelids twitched slightly, and then he followed suit, stepping into the air. “Do you know where the girl’s stepfather is?”
“Naturally.” “Oh wow, is this also your Spirit Artifact ability?”
“No, this is a Spirit Robe Ability.”
“Heh heh~ Do you think I’ll believe you?”
The two of them probed each other’s secrets, exchanging words, and soon passed through the desolate streets, arriving at their destination.
This place was close to the suburbs, shrouded in thick fog, making it feel very wrong.
Xia Feng looked up and was stunned. “Huh?”
In front of them was a hospital, with four large characters on the plaque – Pingshan Hospital.
What the hell? I found it just like that? Xia Feng’s black eyes narrowed, and he said in a deep voice, “The Calamity Force inside is very dense. It’s not right.”
Mu Qingtong mused, “A place like this is likely to be occupied by a Calamity Nightmare. It won’t be easy to deal with.”
The ten million Nightmare Beasts were divided into four major categories: Calamity, Calamity Nightmare, Disaster, and Void.
The Illusory Calamity, which could create illusionary realms but had almost zero defense power, was a type of Calamity Beast. Calamity Beasts were the most common group among the entire Nightmare Clan.
The second type, Calamity Nightmare, also known as Calamity Beast or Calamity Nightmare Beast.
This type of Nightmare Beast possessed Rule Space and used rules to kill people. Once one entered the Calamity Nightmare’s space, they had to act according to its rules.
The third type, Disaster, also known as Disaster Beast or Disaster Nightmare.
These Beasts were relatively rare. As the name suggests, Disaster Beasts’ abilities were natural disasters, such as snowstorms, floods, droughts, and locust plagues.
Besides natural disasters, there were also some special disasters, such as the black hole disaster Xia Feng encountered in the Evil Dragon Forest, which was the remnant of a black hole great disaster.
The last type was Void.
Void was very special because [Void] was not a race, but a specific individual – the emperor of the Nightmare Clan – the Void Emperor!
“How about it? If there really is a Calamity Nightmare inside, can you deal with it?” Mu Qingtong asked.
Xia Feng shook his head. Just as he was about to speak, he suddenly sensed two Calamity Force auras appearing not far to his left.
“Shh~” He placed his index finger on his lips, and his figure disappeared.
Mu Qingtong understood and also used concealment while reducing her presence, disappearing into the thick fog.

“Ran into some unexpected issues. The number of perfectly Evolved souls is only nine. You can handle it.”
The withered man threw nine pebbles over. The man wearing a jester mask not far away caught them and let out a strange low laugh.
“It’s fine, nine is enough. It’s all thanks to you, Boss Yu. Your efficiency is really high.”
“Just remember to pay us. Ninety million, not a cent less,” Yu Lin said coldly.
“Alright, alright, you can rest assured with our God’s Calamity Society. We’re old customers.”
The jester checked the goods and then looked up and smiled lightly. “Oh, by the way, let me give you a warning. Remember to leave Blood Calamity Street before midnight~ Otherwise, it would be funny if we accidentally injured you, an ally.”
Yu Lin was stunned for a moment, his eyes narrowed. “Isn’t there still two days left? Are you planning to invade District 51 in advance?”
“This is also thanks to Boss Yu’s contribution,” the jester chuckled. “We didn’t expect Boss Yu’s efficiency to be so much faster than other Calamity dealers.”
Listening to their conversation, Xia Feng, who was in hiding, was shocked. Invade District 51? What is going on?
To prevent the invasion from the Nightmare Realm, each Area of the Empire was covered by a defensive light net called the ‘Boundless Realm’.
As long as the ‘Boundless Realm’ existed, the Gray Realm and the Nightmare Realm could not open spatial portals to enter the Boundless Realm’s defensive light net.
The so-called Gray Realm referred to the ancient battlefields left behind by the war between the Real World and the Nightmare Realm. It was a lawless area and the activity ground for many criminal organizations and cults.
Almost all the Nightmare Beasts currently existing in District 51 accidentally fell into the Real World through alternate timelines. This was an unconventional way of entering the realm and could not be replicated.
Therefore, for the God’s Calamity Society to invade District 51, there was only one way: destroy the ‘Boundless Realm’, thus exposing District 51 completely to the eyes of the entire Nightmare Beast world!
