Chapter 105: Chapter 105: Public Declaration, Infamous Name
Xie Antong had no idea what kind of courage she possessed to say something like that in front of this guy.
Every previous interaction she had with him, she was constantly considering his mental state, afraid of triggering this embodiment of Wrath.
But this time, maybe it was the intense mental drain, or maybe his words hit a nerve so hard it shattered her defenses—her reason slipped for a moment.
Or maybe, under the enhancement of the All-Seeing Eye, some instinct deep down told her—
—This is the moment to fight back.
For no reason, she gritted her teeth.
“You're a f***ing freak too, just like your name....”
Then, as calm and rationality returned a little, she broke into a cold sweat.
The man in front of her... didn’t suddenly snap and kill her just now......
Then, he nodded slightly.
“You’ve got a point. Thanks for the compliment.”
Shing.
No further dialogue. Xie Antong exited the game scene immediately and entered the final Game Settlement screen.
As soon as she regained her calm, she made a break for it—just in case this guy suddenly flipped and started killing again.
She felt that the fact he didn’t kill her on the spot was already considered good temper.
Xie Antong’s sudden exit caught Lu Ce off guard for a moment. Standing alone in the deserted campus hallway, it felt a little cold and lonely.
In this Horror Mystery Campus, he was officially the last one left.
Turning back to look at Park Bu Seong’s corpse, along with the Epic-tier weapon that could be instantly detonated lying on the ground, he thought—well, that’s convenient.
No need to think about loot distribution anymore.
The game was down to just himself. And for the first time, Lu Ce took off his mask in the game.
He held the mask in both hands, staring at the ferocious markings on it, like he was locking eyes with another version of himself.
How long had it really been? His mindset had changed more than he realized.
Now, even looking at Park Bu Seong, who he had just cut down at his feet, he barely felt anything.
Before entering the game, he wasn’t like this... not exactly.
He couldn’t remember anymore......
After staring at the mask for a while, he put it back on. Facing the spot where Xie Antong had left, he said:
“Sorry. I didn’t mean to insult you.”
“Settle!”
As the words left his mouth, Lu Ce’s figure vanished from the school, and the once-empty campus became truly deserted.
In the now-familiar space, that feeling of floating in the void returned. Lu Ce’s body hovered quietly in the air.
【Challenge Mode ended!】

【Self-selected Hell Mode Reward: One slot of Two-World Backpack Space, Spirit +2.】
Among them, the Self-Destruct Core was the item Park Bu Seong had dropped right before dying—he never got the chance to use it.
Well, lucky for Lu Ce—it’s his now.
【Self-Destruct Core: Epic-tier Weapon.】
【Effect: Explodes automatically five seconds after activation. Its power is likely strong enough that slow users won’t escape in time!】
Yeah, that’s a pretty dark-humored weapon.
This time, the rewards weren’t too flashy. The real highlight was that golden, gleaming Legendary Weapon Lottery Ticket.
This thing was insanely rare. As Lu Ce listened to the system prompt, he healed his body while immediately using the ticket.
No point holding onto it!
One game, two people got Legendary Weapons—if he didn’t get one, it would’ve been hard to swallow.
【Legendary Lottery Ticket used.】
【Legendary Weapon obtained—Black Knight.】
Before Lu Ce’s eyes appeared a large, majestic-looking motorcycle. Seeing how tall it was, he doubted an average person could even climb on.
【Matching item detected in backpack. Combine now?】
Hearing the system prompt, Lu Ce froze for a second.
This was the second time he’d seen this.
The first time, it was when he upgraded Tom’s notebook into Confessions of the Disillusioned.
With the reminder, he was surprised to realize—he actually did already have a Legendary Weapon.
Or rather, he had a Legendary Weapon component, but because it was unusable on its own, he’d thrown it into his inventory and completely forgotten about it.
Legendary Weapon Core—Mechanical Heart!
“Use it!”
Lu Ce didn’t even think twice. Game gear is all about quality—the higher the individual quality, the better. It beats a whole bunch of mediocre stuff.
And then, more system prompts popped up. Before he even finished handling the current stuff, a new message came in.
【Dear top player “Sin,” the challenge from Contestant No.79 has garnered widespread attention.】
【Next, the result of this challenge will be broadcast publicly.】
【Please pick a statement to leave behind for future challengers~~.】
The system voice even softened, sounding like a waiter.
Lu Ce: ......
......
Across the globe, Lu Ce—aka “Sin”—was top-tier fame.
Because this wasn’t part of regular game time—it was a bonus Challenge Mode—people were eager to see how rewards and punishments played out, and witness the power of the top player.
Those who watched the livestream footage were already in awe. Within Da Han Mingguo, the place was practically in chaos.
The Blue House looked more like a noisy market. The Park family had multiple women faint from crying.
No one expected that the person carrying the hopes of Da Han Mingguo—Ranked 79th in the world—would die!
Those who hadn’t watched, along with many unchosen ones, were frantically searching for the outcome.
【Challenge Mode: No.79 "Park Bu Seong" challenged No.1 "Sin" — "Sin" wins!】
【Game difficulty was chosen by the challenged “Sin”—Hell Mode! No.79 had extremely high game privileges.】
【Game rewards have been distributed. Since No.79 was slain in-game, no further penalties will apply.】
This news spread globally—everyone was shocked!
No complex reward-punishment system. Just one sentence.
He was simply killed.
Instantly, an infamous name was born!
