Xu Yun Cheng: âMay I ask where your brain is growingâŚâŚâ
The black-haired youth: âThatâs a secret.â Wasnât there one hanging on your body just now? The black strands are all part of my brain. In the pollution world, I was even more intelligent than I am now!
However, not knowing the facts, Xu Yun Cheng painted a horrifying picture in his mind: In some hidden underground cave on C planet, there was a several hundred metre wide gigantic brain covered in blood vessels filled with black strands. The black strands converged and extended upwards towards to surface, disguised as weeds to quietly absorb the zombies and human corpses, supplying the brain with blood and nutrientsâŚâŚ
Xu Yun Cheng shivered and stiffly changed the topic: âAlright, Iâll count 3, 2, 1 and then restart the time.â

The black-haired youth quickly assumed his position of kicking a zombie and then fixed his expression, waiting for Xu Yun Chengâs command.
Xu Yun Cheng: â3, 2, 1, start!â
Time instantly started flowing again.
âSubmit the mission!â The black-haired youth shouted at once.
Having gone through training in the virus world, 2d14, who had initially still been bawling in the black-haired youthâs mind, suddenly jumped in fright and applied for mission completion out of reflex.
Resigned to their fate of dying, the other saviours continued to hack at the surrounding zombies!
Back to the savioursâ point of view: 10 seconds ago.

As the youthâs countdown approaches zero, the saviours have already realised that this was just a white lie the black-haired youth told in order to boost everyoneâs morale. However, even if they were going to die, they still wanted to drag a few more zombies down with them! In the final seconds of their lives, they must fight like a hero!
â3, 2, 1! Now, submit the mission!â
Ah, is this our final tribute to the Salvation Alliance? The saviours bitterly thought.
However, crash! Those hundreds of thousands of zombies all fell to the ground!
Those eight saviours were still madly slashing at the surrounding air. A few seconds later, after realising that they werenât hitting any zombies, they turned around and subconsciously launched their abilities at the layer of zombie corpses on the ground, blasting bits of rotten flesh into the air! And just at this moment!
[Ding! The zombie world mission has been completed! Now calculating your acquired pointsâŚâŚ] A systemâs prompt simultaneously sounded in the 10 peopleâs minds. After hearing the announcement from their systems, the other eight saviours finally stopped bombing the zombie corpses and stood stunned to the spot.
[âŚâŚ Difficulty coefficient: 944. Your contribution level is 0.3%. You have received 361,212 points.]
[âŚâŚ Difficulty coefficient: 944. Your contribution level is 0.25%. You have received 204,408 points.]
Similar announcements sounded one after another in the savioursâ minds. While everyone was still in a state of shock, the black haired youth shouted:
âAlright, the mission has been completed. We can now return to the base to say our goodbyes before leaving this mission world.â

The other saviours thought of their own zero point something percentage contribution and looked at each other, but they didnât dare to refute Xu Yun Chengâs words.
At this moment, the sharp-eyed Liu Ran noticed the red vested âlittle mutant dogâ lying amongst the pile of zombie corpses. She quickly stepped forward and picked it up, then sadly discovered that it was no longer breathingâŚâŚ
âAh! What happened to the little black cub?!â Liu Ran cried out to everyone. After Huo Li pushed such a phoney memory into the inhabitants of the entire world, they seemed to think that the little alienâs appearance was extremely cute and were all very fond of it! Even the S ranked saviour Liu Ran was no exception.
Upon seeing this, the black-haired youth quickly put on a sorrowful expression. He walked up to Liu Ran and took the body of the little black cub, painfully saying:
âIn order to complete the salvation mission and save the lives of billions of people, this little mutant dog has valiantly sacrificed its own life! To commemorate it, I will bury its remains in front of the engine room building. This is where it bravely fought a blood-soaked battle!â
Iâve also spent a lot of effort so that I can rationally not bring the little black cub back to the Salvation Alliance Town! The people of the zombie world believe that itâs just a mutant dog, but so long as the people of the Salvation Alliance Town have a brain, then they would instantly be able to tell that itâs an alien â at this moment, he was a Class 1 wanted criminal of the Interstellar Federation, okay?!
Thus, under the black-haired youthâs lead, the saviours who have lost a fellow comrade worked together to dig a grave for the little black cub. A tombstone was erected above it, recording the glorious deed of this legendary dog!
Story translated by Chrysanthemum Garden.
Then, everyone silently wept as they spontaneously walked up one by one, bowing 3 times to the little black cubâs tombstone to show their respect and reluctance to say goodbye.
When it was Xu Yun Chengâs turn, he casually walked up, but he really wasnât able to bow down to this black-bellied youthâŚâŚ hence, time stopped again! Xu Yun Cheng turned to the confused youth and said:
âI donât have to bow down to you, right?!â
âWhen putting on a play, you should act out the full set. Youâve spent four years shaping your image as a selfless and righteous person, and now, youâre not even able to show respect towards a martyrâs tombstone? Thatâs not very good, right? Itâs a completely collapse of character!â The black-haired youth said. âAnyway, you didnât seem to care when over ten thousand people cursed you for being a cowardly turtle.â
Xu Yun Cheng indignantly shouted: âYou!â He had never cared about fame or fortune, but as soon as he thought of the fact that it was Huo Liâs little boyfriend under the tombstone, he couldnât bring himself to bend his waistâŚâŚ
The black-haired youth was extremely delighted when he saw Xu Yun Chengâs defeated expression: âHaha! Well, Iâll just ask: will the Salvation Alliance check the contents of a saviourâs private space?â
Xu Yun Cheng: âWill not!â

Hence, under the black-haired youthâs control, the âlittle black cubâ buried deep in the earth turned into a pile of black strands. They drilled out of the red vest and leather collar before climbing through the cracks in the soil towards the surface. The black-haired youth then retrieved them and put them into his space.
âIs this fine now? Iâm not inside anymore.â
Xu Yun Chengâs expression finally eased a little. Letting time flow again, he stepped forward and made a bow.
After that, the saviours were directly teleported two at a time back to Yun Cheng base before going their separate ways to say goodbye to the friends they have made over the years they have spent in the zombie world. With his identity as the city lord, Xu Yun Cheng also gathered all the Yun Chengâs residents together to announce the success of their mission: the root cause of the zombies has been completely eliminated. Humans will no longer turn into zombies, and the remaining hundreds of billions of zombies around the world will also automatically die out within a monthâs time!
While the residents below the stage were crying tears of joy, Xu Yun Cheng also explained the truth to everyone: He and deputy city lord Tang Shen, as well as a few other ability users, were actually members of the Salvation Alliance. Now that the zombie world has been saved, they will soon leave this planetâŚâŚ
While Xu Yun Cheng was busy handling matters and ordering some staff to deliver news to each of the other bases around the world, 3 hours ago, the black-haired youth had returned to the small building where the Chang Feng base members were residing.
âXiao Yi, youâre back!â Standing by the door, Huang Shen Er was the first to see the youth and shouted for everyone to come out.
âHow was the mission? Did you get injured?â Chen Da Yong ran out of the house and asked.
âAi? Whereâs Boss Xu? He didnât come back with you?â
âThe little black cub also didnât come back?â
Wu Yi and Sun Ya Nan asked one after another.
âThe mission has been completed. In a moment, Yun Chengâs city lord will hold a city-wide assembly and announce to everyone the success of the mission. However, I now have something I want to confess to everyone.â The black-haired youth said.
Seeing the youthâs seriousness, the Chang Feng base members also became solemn.
âActually, Iâm not a C planet resident, but a saviour of the Salvation Alliance. I arrived at C planet 5 minutes before running into Uncle Chen and the others. I have been deceiving everyone this entire time. Iâm really sorry.â The youth then waited for everyoneâs reactions.

However, anger and blame he had expected didnât arrive. Instead, he heard Sun Ya Nan say with some distress:
âThe Salvation Alliance! Heavens! You need to help the Salvation Alliance complete missions at such a young age?! I heard that the saviours of the Salvation Alliance work in many different crisis worlds, and thereâs not much time to take a vacationâŚâŚ Xiao Yi, how old are you? Are you an adult yet?â
The black-haired youth answered truthfully: ââŚâŚ N-no.â Iâm 15 years away!
Wu Yi was extremely shocked: âHow can the Salvation Alliance hire a child?! Do you not have any other relatives?â
The black-haired youth: âNo.â I killed them all!
âThen did you voluntarily join the Salvation Alliance?â Chu Nan also asked. In the membersâ hearts, the Salvation Alliance became an evil gang that bullied the weak and forced people to work for them.
Having been deducted 930,000 points by the host system, the black-haired youth also felt quiet resentful towards the Alliance. Hence, he truthfully said: âNo.â

This time, the youthâs teammates simply exploded, starting to loudly condemn the Salvation Allianceâs forceful behaviour one after another.
The youth joyfully listened to them, but 2d14âs grieving voice then sounded in his mind: [Lord Host! When we first met, didnât I ask for your consent?]
Taking advantage of the ruckus everyone was making, the youth whispered in reply: âDid I give you my consent? I didnât say anything at all!â
Hence, just for that moment of delight, the black-haired youth was forced to endure 2d14âs wails for the next 3 hours! Because on the first day it was born, it had already violated the regulations and discredited the host system!
After the Chang Feng members loudly fought for justice for the youth, someone finally remembered about the boss of their base:
âXiao Yi ah. Boss Xu didnât come back with you?â Chen Da Yong asked.
âActually, he is also a saviour of the Salvation Alliance, but according to his characterâŚâŚ he might not come back to say goodbye to you guys. Heâs now busy handing over Yun Chengâs matters and preparing for the mission summary assembly.â The black-haired youthâs voice carried a trace of ridicule.
If you're reading this, this translation is stolen. Please support our translators at chrysanthemumgarden.com
âYouâre sayingâŚâŚ?â
âYes.â The black-haired youth looked at everyoneâs looks of disbelief and answered: âYun Cheng, Xu Yun Cheng. Hah! How much does he like his name? When he holds the assembly today, he definitely wonât be wearing that mask anymore. You guys can go and see, but he probably wonât take notice of you guys from now on.â The youth speculated.
At this moment, the Chang Feng members were at a complete loss. The Boss Xu they had deeply respected for so many years turned out to be the city lord of Yun Cheng! He was actually so powerful! Then didnât this mean that he could have saved all the comrades theyâve lost back thenâŚâŚ
âWell, he also saved the entire world. Everyone should stop thinking about past matters. I also have some good news!â Seeing how everyone was about to follow in Tang Shenâs footsteps and develop psychological shadows, the black-haired youth quickly changed the topic: âWu Han is still alive!â
âDidnât Han Ge turn into a zombieâŚâŚâ
âBut that shot in the woodsâŚâŚâ
The black-haired youth: âI fired that shot. His zombification has been reversed.â It took me a long time to cut off that zombie gene while keeping his body alive. However, Wu Han was originally an ordinary person. Suddenly becoming genetically modifiedâŚâŚ I donât know what heâll think about it. Forget it, itâs best not to tell him.
While everyone was crying tears of joy that Wu Han had been brought back to life, the youth added: âWu Han is now in a hotel on Chang Ning Street in Peacock town, 40 kilometres south of the Riverside base. You should hurry up and find him! In a moment, even I wonât know his specific location.â Because Iâm now commanding the black strands to disintegrate. They will finish disintegrating in 10 minutes.
The black-haired youth then took out all the gasoline and food from his space and gave them to the Chang Feng members. He said goodbye to everyone and prepared to leave C planet.
However, everyone was still reluctant to part with the youth.
âXiao Yi ah, if youâre ever bullied by people in the Salvation Alliance or youâre not happy, just come to C planet and find us!â Huang Shen Er wiped away her tears. The others also nodded one after another.
The black-haired youth: ââŚâŚ Okay.â I have never met someone who looked so forward to seeing their planet become the end of the world again.

After reassuring them that he would live a good life, the Chang Feng members finally drove off towards Peacock town, completely tossing the boss they had worshipped for many years into the back of their minds.
Xiao Yi then said to System 2d14 who was still crying: âPrepare to go back to the Salvation Alliance town.â
System 2d14: [Hick Yes, Lord Host. EstablishingâŚâŚ Ding! You have received a paid message from Stranger 099: bh jslmz, xjlm zzsc!]
System 2d14: [Hick. Ai? Why is Big Boss Huo Liâs message just mojibake?]
However, the black-haired youth instantly understood the meaning of this message and his expression became grave.
