The System Arrived Four Years Early, but the Anomaly Is Still a Juvenile

“…Why is this happening?” Shen Ge had originally thought that after escaping the infinite loop, there would only be two possible outcomes for what happened next—

One was that, following the situation from his second entry into the dream world, he would make his way to the Spire, re-enter that fleshy room filled with eyes, and attempt to break free again.

The other was that some kind of “restart mechanism” would be triggered again, causing him to enter another form of infinite loop.

But now, it seemed the situation wasn’t that simple. It gave Shen Ge the feeling that after discovering he was gradually mastering the abilities and operational rules of the dream world, the person behind the scenes wanted to create an accident to kill him while he fully believed in the “plot.”

Like that sharp turn into the tree just now. If Shen Ge hadn’t reacted quickly, he might have flown straight off the cliff, dying in a car wreck.

But why would they do this?

Shen Ge couldn’t quite figure it out. The power of the entity behind the scenes was strong enough to control the entire world’s operation, which was clearly far beyond Shen Ge’s ability to handle. It was like facing those two 8th-tier anomalies on Sakurajima—a world-ending battle beyond the control of ordinary people.

And according to the information given in the [Log], after those two 8th-tier anomalies destroyed Sakurajima, the anomaly disaster spread rapidly across the globe, accelerating humanity’s extinction.

Of course, this was just Shen Ge’s speculation. If the entity controlling the dream world truly existed, then him possessing the powers of “Materialization” and “Hypnosis” didn’t quite add up.
