Chapter 198: Chapter 198
Lin Jing and Ouyang, who were present, were both startled the moment they heard that name—
That unfamiliar, seemingly mentally unstable face... belonged to Wan Xin??
But that couldn’t be right!
They immediately checked the apartment’s Member List—Wan Xin’s name was greyed out.
Which meant there was currently no living Wan Xin in Apartment 4444.
If that was the case, then why did Jiang Ye call that person “Wan Xin”?
The person Jiang Ye called “Wan Xin”—who looked like Yang Wenchao—was acting extremely strange.
His face was twisted, like his left and right brain hemispheres were fighting each other.
The next, his face was scrunched up like he’d just swallowed crap.
He opened his mouth, clearly trying to speak to Jiang Ye, but what came out was fragmented and nonsensical:
“Da… I… no… mm… f**k…”
Watching him was like watching someone with severe speech dysfunction.
The corners of Jiang Ye’s mouth twitched. After a pause, he said carefully,
"Uh… maybe you two should try to talk this through? Take turns or something?"
"If I’m not mistaken… your current situation is that two people are sharing one body, right?"
This time, without words, Yang Wenchao’s body nodded vigorously.
It seemed the two souls occupying the body had either come to some agreement, or Yang Wenchao’s will had taken over for the moment.
He finally managed to say a full sentence with his own body, angrily muttering,
"What the actual fk?! Why did this fking guy end up inside MY body?!"
"I swear to god, heaven and earth can testify—this body is definitely mine!!"
"Why?! What the h*ll did you even do?!"
His expression showed a mix of fury and helpless grievance.
Clearly, Yang Wenchao was distraught and unwilling to accept that his body was being shared—or worse, invaded—by Wan Xin.
But soon, his expression started distorting again, clearly because Wan Xin’s will was once more trying to take control…
The revelation from Jiang Ye’s Replica No. 1 left everyone around utterly shocked!
It meant that the body before them contained two players’ consciousnesses?!
Wang Lingling, who had known Yang Wenchao from school, looked beyond stunned.
Lin Jing and Ouyang, however, immediately thought of the Red-Dressed Girl who had appeared in Quick Battle Mode before—Guan He.
Guan He, too, had a Multi-Souled Body.
But she seemed to have some kind of pact in place.
Only one soul occupied the body at a time, avoiding any internal power struggle.
In contrast, Wan Xin and Yang Wenchao clearly hadn’t made any such agreement.
So their shared body, caught in a constant tug-of-war, appeared downright deranged.
Other players may have been stunned, but they were still just watching for the drama.
Jiang Ye, though, was not only shocked but also inspired—
Others might not know why Yang Wenchao and Wan Xin ended up in a Multi-Souled Body state.
But Jiang Ye had a good guess—
It was due to a problem with the “last wish” Wan Xin left for his Mecha Undead Mode.
A normal last wish should’ve just involved digging a coffin and sleeping in it.
But Wan Xin’s last wish was to imitate Yang Wenchao, to follow his lead exactly.
Clearly, he didn’t fully trust Yang Wenchao, and that’s why he set such a condition.
He figured that even if Yang Wenchao tried anything shady, as long as he mimicked him step by step, he’d be fine.
But that mindset turned out to be a massive mistake!
Wan Xin followed Yang Wenchao the entire way—even squeezed into the same coffin with him!
And that was likely the main reason they ended up as a Multi-Souled Body!
Of course, even this explanation was kind of insane.
After all, the coffin only held one body in the end—but two people had gone in.
So why did Wan Xin’s body vanish without a trace? Updates are released by novel✦fire.net
Back when Jiang Ye saw them cram into the same coffin, he never imagined someone would disappear.
From this incident, one could possibly infer…
That in the process of transporting the coffin from the Secret Graveyard to the Underground Graveyard,
there may have been a step that handled the body inside and regenerated a new physical form.
Whatever that process was exactly,
Jiang Ye’s bold new idea was this—
If Wan Xin and Yang Wenchao could use the shared-coffin resurrection trick to achieve a Multi-Souled Body…
Then couldn’t he use the same method to merge Replica A and Replica B?!
Wan Xin and Yang Wenchao were two different minds, which made them constantly clash over control.
But all of Jiang Ye’s Replicas shared the same consciousness!
Which meant, if two of his Replicas were in a Multi-Souled Body…
It would actually be a complete fusion of two Replicas!
Using the resurrection mechanics between the two Graveyards…
He wouldn’t have to wait until midnight—he could achieve fusion anytime!
And this fusion had no limits!
There would be no three-minute duration, and it wouldn’t be restricted to merging into the Main Body.
Any Replica could directly and permanently merge with any other!
Even the Light-type and Dark-type Replicas—he could instantly create a Light and Dark in One Body!
If this insane idea actually worked…
It would be a colossal breakthrough for Jiang Ye!
If only the Underground Graveyard weren’t currently under Lin Ling’s control.
He’d want to run the experiment with two Replicas right now!
Of course, alongside his excitement, Jiang Ye quickly remembered—
Right now, it wasn’t just the Underground Graveyard under Lin Ling’s grasp.
The real issue was that the Secret Graveyard also had to be handed over to the Apartment Trader at noon.
That thought hit him like a bucket of cold water dumped over his head—instantly chilling.
Sure, the Replica Reflection Mirror was god-tier.
But the ability to freely fuse any Replicas using the two Graveyards… that was just too valuable to give up!
Maybe… just maybe, he could try negotiating with the Trader—after handing over the Reincarnation Key, could he still use the Secret Graveyard somehow?
But even as that thought crossed his mind, Jiang Ye immediately realized—
Based on Yang Wenchao's situation in the game…
When he discovered the Secret Graveyard, the Reincarnation Key was no longer in the hands of the 4444 Administrator.
At that time, the 4444 Administrator had already been reduced to nothing more than a puppet.
Which was why Yang Wenchao’s bug exploit—burying himself in the Secret Graveyard to “park” his account—went unnoticed.
But here was the problem…
The 4444 Administrator didn’t detect the bug because he’d lost the Reincarnation Key, sure.
But apparently, no one else noticed either??
Even though the Reincarnation Key had already been transferred,
Its new owner never gained permission to access the Secret Graveyard?
And the 4444 Administrator had already lost all control over it…
Leaving the entire Secret Graveyard in a completely sealed, ownerless state—thus letting Yang Wenchao abuse the bug repeatedly?
That was entirely possible!
According to what the Apartment Trader had said earlier—
The Reincarnation Key was bound to the 4444 Administrator Privilege Identity.
The Trader couldn’t directly receive the Reincarnation Key because he already held the Apartment Trader identity and couldn’t also take on 4444 Administrator.
In Yang Wenchao’s game, the one who stole the Reincarnation Key probably faced the same issue—
They had the Reincarnation Key, but not the 4444 Administrator identity.
So maybe the condition for entering the Secret Graveyard was that both were required:
Reincarnation Key + 4444 Administrator.
If that were true, it would mean that Jiang Ye, now without the Key, should have also lost access to the Secret Graveyard.
Was there a way he could preserve access even after handing over the Key?
As Jiang Ye considered this, another thought crossed his mind—
That 4444 Administrator identity, which was bound to the Reincarnation Key—was it really that weak?
Did losing the Key really reduce it to the level of a generic Administrator?
He couldn’t shake the feeling: if the Reincarnation Key was as powerful as people claimed—linked to the entire cycle of the Doomsday Apartment—
Then the identity it was bound to shouldn’t be so worthless.
Otherwise, wouldn’t that be an insult to the Key itself? Why would such a god-tier item be tied to a “useless” identity?
Perhaps… the 4444 Administrator identity still held some kind of hidden authority that no one knew about?
Jiang Ye was definitely spiraling into deeper speculation.
Meanwhile, Wan Xin and Yang Wenchao were still “fighting” for control of the body.
Probably because the body originally belonged to Yang Wenchao, he seemed to more easily regain the upper hand.
At this moment, it was clearly Yang Wenchao in control again, ranting furiously:
"F**k this! Can you get the h*ll out of my body already?!!"
So disgusted was he by Wan Xin's possession of his body that he didn’t even care who the crowd of “onlookers” were around him.
He just shouted directly:
"Is there anyone here who can tell me—"
"In a case , how do I kill off the extra soul in my body??"
"I mean, this feels kinda like an Eerie invasion, right? So shouldn’t I be able to kill the guy off somehow?"
Yes, Yang Wenchao had never liked Wan Xin to begin with.
Now that they were stuck in a Multi-Souled Body, he’d had enough—he just wanted Wan Xin gone, and full control of his body restored.
But right after saying that so bluntly, it seemed Wan Xin had snatched control back—
Suddenly, “Yang Wenchao” slapped himself across the face and ranted rapidly:
"Kill me? You’re dreaming!"
"You’re the one who deserves to die!"
"You’re just deadweight—useless to the big shots!"
"But me? I have AIDS Blood that can help Light-type bigshots hide their presence!"
"So clearly, it’s you who should be erased—this body should go back to being mine!"
Jiang Ye, like the rest of the “spectators,” was left speechless by this absurd squabble.
At the same time, he was quietly curious—
This fused version of Yang-Wan-Wen-Xin-Chao…
Did his blood still count as AIDS Blood or not?
