Invincible from Seeing the BOSS's Health Bar

The rough rope binding his hands was cut open, and the black cloth was removed.

He saw a burly man in full armor, coldly holding a gun while looking at him.

Another person was removing the black cloth from his ’roommate’.

”Stay put and await orders.”

Behind the burly man, there were also a few people holding guns at the doorway.

Xu Zhentian had never seen such a formation, and he quickly nodded in fright.

After freeing the two of their bonds, the armed men left.

The closed dormitory resembled a prison; looking around, there seemed to be nothing but two beds.

Oh, and there was some sort of daily schedule, but Xu Zhentian didn’t pay much attention to it.

His gaze fell on his roommate.

It was a young man with somewhat stern features and a slightly indifferent expression.

It seemed like he was just being locked up, not sent here to be dismembered or anything like that?

Realizing he might not have to die, Xu Zhentian relaxed a bit.

”Hey buddy, what should I call you?”

”Chen Yayue.”

The roommate’s voice was cold.

”Um, you... also...?”

”Yes.”

As expected!

They all came for the million.

However, the person pulling the strings behind the scenes was so quick to pay that relieving their worries made Xu Zhentian feel no malice towards him.

It’s merely spending money to buy life, and doing the job for money; without this chance, he’d be at a dead end.

”I’m Xu Zhentian, you can just call me A-Tian. So, what’s your reason for needing money?”

Chen Yayue merely gave him a cold glance and said nothing, going on to tidy his bedding.

It seemed like he had touched upon something private.

Xu Zhentian scratched his head and walked to the door to look at the schedule posted on the back.

He might have been better off not looking, because what he saw shocked him.

What was with this ’daily management of breeding sows’?

Wake up, wash, eat, work, bathe, even the time for using the restroom...

Everything was scheduled to the minute, like managing livestock, mechanizing and standardizing everything.

This minutiae seemed to be based on some kind of scientific data or big data analysis, making him feel uncomfortable.

There was no freedom left; even what to eat for lunch and dinner, and how much, was strictly controlled.

However, thinking about the armed security personnel outside, he became compliant instantly.

After all, on another’s turf, one naturally abides by the rules; besides, the money was already in his account, and there’s nothing to worry about. His phone and other means of communication were taken much earlier, making any escape impossible.

Who knows... I might have to work here for the rest of my life, until I die.

This terrible thought flashed through Xu Zhentian’s mind, which he quickly suppressed.

No matter what, better to adapt to circumstances.

But when the next day began, and he was subjected to military-style management, he began to feel overwhelmed.

What really broke him was the job content, which was simply playing games!

Playing the ”Seeking Demon” game, and based on in-game performance, one could get extra meals, make money, increase free time, rest time, and even more restroom visits.

In short, the stronger the game character, the more good things one could get; or if they met some other evaluation criteria, they could earn extra rewards.

All in all, surprisingly, Xu Zhentian felt quite alright??

The most important thing is that making money here actually meant money was transferred to your account.

Is this truly just playing games for a job? Some rich second generation experiencing life?

If he would’ve known, he wouldn’t be so scared.

All of a sudden, Xu Zhentian was filled with motivation, because earning money here seemed fairly easy, as long as the character grew, rewards would follow.

Although currently it was just talk, it seemed genuine enough.

As for the lecture on the outdoor stage, with the lecturer talking about occasionally issuing missions for them to execute, Xu Zhentian automatically ignored it.

He was eager to dive into the game, grow strong, and make lots of money!

”Our organization, code-named [Dawn], this operation must not be mentioned to any outsiders, and no communication with the outside world is allowed. You must act like NPCs from the game, even when interacting with players, disguising yourselves as NPCs. If any information leaks out, if discovered, you know what will happen.”

The suited presenter finished speaking, then took the submachine gun from the security personnel beside him and fired dozens of rounds into the sky.

Live guns, live ammunition.

Anyone below who still had a will to live dared not harbor any small thoughts.

From afar, Xu Zhentian seemed to see a few more black vans heading this way, suggesting that in the future, colleagues would keep on increasing.

Assigned to a private workspace, which was actually just a bed and a gaming helmet.

Then...

Seeking Demon, initiate!

...

Far away in the hospital’s intensive care unit, with oxygen tubes attached, Chen Ya slowly opened her eyes.

Her gaze slowly turned to the phone next to her.

There was a line of the latest transfer message, amounting to a full million.

It was transferred by her brother Chen Yayue.

But at the same time, she found she couldn’t reach her brother.

She raised her hand with difficulty and pressed the call button once again.

However...

”The number you have dialed is currently unavailable, please try later...”

Brother, where have you gone...

...
