Origin: Unknown.

Function: Every half a year, a sentient being needs to drink the Black Death Pathogen from the cup. The one who drinks will randomly transform into a C-level to S-level dangerous object.

If the liquid in the cup is not consumed, the water will overflow into the air, imbuing it with the Black Death Curse, and the Black Death Pathogen will begin to breed again, until the entire Kingdom is shrouded by the Black Death Curse.

Current air pollution index: Daytime 0.3, nighttime 0.8.

Current containment location: Plague Doctor Reception Institution Base 3.

Note: Do not attempt to destroy S-001, destroying it will increase the pollution concentration by 0.1, and it will randomly resurrect in any corner.]

[S-002-Spread.

Appearance: Gray-skinned Human Race.

Origin: In life, it was Fenghuo Kingdom's Legendary Mage ***·**. After death, its power was enhanced, and anyone under its gaze will be afflicted with the Black Death Curse, impossible to contain.

Prior to ***·**'s death, he voluntarily entered the highest-level shelter at the border. After the calamity, the shelter could not restrict its activities, leading to the complete demise of three cities and hundreds of thousands.

Do not call its name; any being that calls its true name will have S-002 appear beside them, destroying all beings it can see.

All attempts have failed; no one can stop the spread of S-002's Black Death Curse.

Impossible to destroy, impossible to contain, impossible to restrict.]

[S-003-Instant Death....]

Mr. Baiyi looked at the documents of dangerous objects in front of him, his eyes filled with shock. There are more than thirty S-level containment objects, all capable of city destruction, and all are undying.

It seems the source of everything is S-001, but Mr. Baiyi feels it's not that simple, because of that Mage's mention of the Space Seal.

In the Mage's travelogue outside, there's no mention of any Space Seal, nor any historical record of it.

In the era of the Ancient Gods, no matter how strong the Ancient Gods were, the people of Fenghuo Kingdom surely wouldn't neglect to write records, right?

It means the true Fenghuo Kingdom doesn't have any so-called Space Seal, yet it is trapped alive on this land with a diameter of ten thousand kilometers, with no one spared.

This is absolutely a tragedy.

Mr. Baiyi shook his head, deciding not to ponder the matter of the seal anymore, perhaps it's a supplementary rule of the Nightmare World's self-explanation, or something else.

What he needs to do now is find the world's core, first, he should max out the skill point of creating the Black Death Curse. Perhaps, through repeated Spirit creation, he might gain some inspiration.

"Mr. Baiyi, the number of people caught in Fenghuo City has reached five hundred; would you like to take a look?" A Plague Doctor entered the study, respectfully inquiring.

"Alright." Mr. Baiyi stood up and put back the book that had been recently taken out to manufacture the Plague Doctor Set.

"Those captured cannot enter the Underground City, and now it's nighttime, please wear the protective clothing. It can significantly reduce the chance of infection by the Black Death Curse." The Plague Doctor said, holding a set of Death God's Clothes and a Bird Beak Mask up to Mr. Baiyi.

Mr. Baiyi did not refuse, placed the Apocalypse Curtain into the Space Ring, and quickly donned the Plague Doctor Set.

Snap~

During the dressing, a tentacle burst out but was quickly pressed back by Mr. Baiyi, still holding A-031, cannot revert to the Light Side.

This thing seems to have some functions he wants to study, because he discovered his Dark Side can use these dangerous objects without cost.

However, maintaining the Dark Side for a long time makes him feel somewhat agitated, but he can still suppress it, not affecting his thoughts.

Wearing the Bird Beak Mask, Mr. Baiyi immediately felt his breathing less smooth, needing more effort than before, and there was a peculiar floral scent, seemingly blocking something.

His vision also became somewhat blurred, seeing things through a yellowish filter.

After organizing his clothes, Mr. Baiyi followed the Plague Doctor to a structure outside resembling a Beast Fighting Arena.

Around the building, a group of Plague Doctors leisurely watched the beings inside, led by a Golden Middle Tier Plague Doctor.

Golden Upper Tier Plague Doctors are studying the 'Evil Thought' given by Mr. Baiyi, it's their most urgent task now.

Entering the venue, Mr. Baiyi saw people bound; their eyes generally fierce, wary, somewhat like beasts.

Mr. Baiyi glanced around, asked the Golden Middle Tier one, "Didn't catch any Golden Level ones?"

The Plague Doctor subtly stepped back half a step; Mr. Baiyi felt too much like a dangerous object; their long-term struggle with dangerous objects made them somewhat uncomfortable.

Recalling the words of the Plague Doctor leaders, he responded respectfully, "Fenghuo City has five Golden Level outsiders, three already locked, capturing them is underway."

Mr. Baiyi looked at the group of City of Calamity members, thought for a moment, raised a hand.

A potion bottle spun and fell to the center of the Beast Fighting Arena, bang~

The glass bottle shattered, the dark green mist settled down and quickly spread outward.

Mr. Baiyi turned: "Let's go, don't stay here, the people from the other two cities should be put to death directly, I believe you've researched what needs to be researched, the Ancient Gods had nothing good."

[You killed a Level 21 Beastman using Alchemy Poison, Experience Value +80, Extra Experience Points +80.]

[You used Alchemy Poison....]

The Golden Middle Tier Plague Doctor paused, then waved his hand, quickly evacuating the dozens of Plague Doctors present.

In this land of disease, all Plague Doctors are doctors and can see what that green liquid is.

And it is just as Mr. Baiyi said, whether it is Plague Doctors, Knight Order of Light or Disaster Object Shelter, none of them could just listen to Mr. Baiyi's one-sided words.

Indeed, they had asked these people about intelligence concerning Ancient Gods, and that's why they notified Mr. Baiyi.

Now, the official organization's trust in Mr. Baiyi has risen another level, and their attitudes have become more respectful.

Mr. Baiyi returned to the Underground City, one hand exploring A-031, the other examining the books in hand.

He still wore the Plague Doctor Set because this book was cleverly designed; only when wearing the Plague Doctor Set could he see content beyond the second page.

Otherwise, he could only see the manufacturing method of the Plague Doctor Set. This is the Federation's caution over the Black Death Curse; this curse is absolutely Divine Level, but creating it doesn't require Divine Level technology.

This is very dangerous.

As time passed, the expression under Mr. Baiyi's Bird Beak Mask grew increasingly serious.

The method of creating the Black Death Curse emerged in the New God Era, and the method revealed some extremely important information.

He closed the book and stood, moving outward.

"Mr. Baiyi, where are you going?" A Plague Doctor at the door saw him and hurriedly asked.

"Inform Mr. Zai, I need to see S-001." Mr. Baiyi directly instructed.

Because if the information about the Black Death Curse creation method truly coincides with the conjecture, then this nation-destroying catastrophe indeed seems.... It does have the handiwork of the Ancient Gods, but it wasn't a disaster orchestrated by the Ancient Gods intentionally.

It appears the role played by that Ancient God wasn't as wicked as imagined.

With the Space Seal explained and combined with some background stories of 2.0, perhaps Mr. Baiyi can discover some true secrets of the world.

The Plague Doctor paused, nodded: "Wait a moment, I need to inquire." He said, quickly heading to the passage on the left, and within seconds, another Plague Doctor appeared beside Mr. Baiyi, moved fearfully a bit to the side.

After all, -5 of Charm isn't something the average person can withstand, especially when he holds a Faceless Mask in his hand.

About five minutes later, Zai arrived, calmly asked: "Mr. Baiyi, do you want to see S-001 for something?"

"I have a conjecture, might know where the Black Death Curse comes from." Mr. Baiyi calmly stated: "And this conjecture requires me to see that pathogen."

Zai calmly looked at him, after a while, nodded: "I am willing to trust you, follow me."

Both of their steps were slightly hurried, quickly arriving at the deepest part of the building.

Here was a steel door, behind it was a passage leading down, the faint yellow light illuminated the stairs, leading to an unknown place.

Stepping onto the street, the expression hidden under Mr. Baiyi's Bird Beak Mask turned somewhat grim, this information is extremely important, also very dangerous. He hopes it's true, also hopes it's false.

Going down, about two hundred meters or so, they encountered a wooden door, very strange, with blood continuously seeping out, yet this blood didn't pile up on the ground, it just vanished into thin air.

Mr. Baiyi was a bit surprised, using dangerous objects as doors?
