Global Survival: I Got the D-Rank Personnel Simulator

”...What did you do to me?”

The Aberration monster suddenly felt a sensation it had never experienced before.

”This question is difficult to answer. It’s a state, a state that can truly make you conscious.”

Lin Ye bluffed.

”Ah, you’re right, I am indeed conscious now...”

The Aberration monster lowered its fluid tendrils, swaying its body as it walked to the side of the crystal statue.

”Do you know what this is?”

”The crystal sealing you? The statue should be your true form?”

Lin Ye had a bad feeling. He originally just wanted to plunge the Aberration monster, which might be controlled by the Source of Contamination, into a state of confusion, not create a crazy Source of Contamination.

”No, I am only a part of the sealing object. Even though I temporarily escaped, I only used your teammate to take my place. He won’t last long, so I wanted to capture all of you as replacements. That time should have been enough for me to escape from here... But now it doesn’t matter anymore, you are all useless.”The Aberration monster revealed a smile full of goodwill... at least it thought so.

”You don’t mean to...”

Lin Ye felt a headache coming on. What made his headache worse was that this current situation was caused by himself.

”Correct, I am going to completely lift the seal here, to let those who used me as sealing material understand that this is the consequence of using me as material.”

The Aberration monster swayed its plump body. The yellow crystals in the Cargo Hold began to slowly melt.

”Wait, before you lift the seal, could you let us leave here first? I helped you out, so it’s only fair you help me out too.”

Lin Ye continued bluffing.

”Leave? Are you joking? Don’t tell me you don’t even know what place this is?”

The Aberration monster revealed a strange smile. It didn’t expect these people still wanted to leave this place.

”What place is this?”

That ominous premonition in Lin Ye’s heart grew stronger.

”This is the Sealed Land, a closed space for handling dangerous things that can only be sealed. This place is full of the most dangerous sealing objects. Entering is possible, but leaving? Don’t even think about it.”

Seeing Lin Ye’s stiff expression, the Aberration monster was very happy. It had just gone mad, not stupid.

”That’s not right. According to reliable information, there should be a way to leave this place deep within this cruise ship.”

Lin Ye didn’t think the information provided by Ayla’s relic could be completely wrong.

”Ah, that does exist. As long as the seal is lifted, this cruise ship can take you away from here. But where it takes you is hard to say, and you might not live to see that time.”

The Aberration monster wasn’t clear about the ’power’ of this cruise ship, but leaving the Sealed Land shouldn’t be a problem. This was also one of the reasons it was willing to lift the seal. It wanted to become a ’passenger’ of the cruise ship and leave this place with it.

”Oh, then go ahead and lift the seal... please hurry up... and release our companions while you’re at it. Otherwise, after the seal is lifted, I’ll find a way to kill you.”

Since leaving this place required lifting the seal, then the seal had to be lifted.

”...Aren’t you afraid I’ll fight you to the death?”

The Aberration monster asked.

”Feel free. Anyway, if I kill you, the seal will be lifted too.”

Lin Ye focused his mental energy, staring at the Aberration monster. That was the body he had been controlling all along. If the other party thought clearing the runes would solve the problem, that would be laughable.

”...Fine, I’ll return them. But I can only remove the part they were affected by. I can’t deal with the Alienation.”

Even though it was mad, the Aberration monster just wanted to try a more radical escape method, not die here.

Mond suddenly collapsed to the ground. The old man also fell out of the crystal.

Lin Ye helped deal with the Alienation on their bodies. Mond was okay, but the old man was in a rather sorry state.

After losing the old man, the entire Cargo Hold began to shake violently. Those bright yellow crystals began to rapidly crack and disappear.

Ayla, holding Liv, ran to Lin Ye’s side. She activated some item, and an invisible spiritual energy shield surrounded them.

The surrounding scene began to transform. The entire cruise ship seemed to come alive. Walls twisted, metal stretched, and the surrounding cargo boxes automatically opened. Some things crawled out from inside.

”Aren’t you going to grab some loot to take back? These are precious goods that were sealed. Each item is a rare treasure.”

The Aberration monster reminded them.

”I don’t like items that move on their own, and I especially dislike things sealed in a place like this.”

Lin Ye watched as a box covered in long legs passed in front of them. There was a small hole on the box, just the right size to put a hand inside.

Kama gripped her cane, nervously guarding against the abnormal things around them.

Ayla was completely different from Kama. She widened her eyes, observing the abnormal things around them, looking even a bit happy.

Just as they were observing their surroundings, a crew member suddenly appeared outside the spiritual energy shield. It looked similar to an ordinary crew member, except its eye sockets had no eyeballs, only two pitch-black holes.

”Hello, I am a crew member of this cruise ship. The ship is about to set sail now. Before departure, you need to make a choice: become a handyman on the ship, or become the ship’s reserve food.”

”Can’t we become passengers?”

The Aberration monster immediately asked.

”No, you are not qualified. Please make your choice quickly. I have many things to attend to.”

The crew member turned its head to look at the Aberration monster. If the ship weren’t short-handed right now, it would have long turned these intruders into reserve food.

”What do handymen have to do? Can they leave the ship?”

Kama used her mental energy to sense the crew member’s tier, only to find she couldn’t perceive the crew member’s location at all. The other party had completely vanished from her perception.

”Handymen are the lowest level on the ship. Anyone on the ship can order a handyman to do anything. Moreover, handymen can only work on the ship until they die, never able to leave the ship.”

The crew member clearly didn’t want them to choose to become handymen, so it spelled out the disadvantages very clearly.

”Is there a channel leading to the outside world on the ship?”

Lin Ye asked very directly.

”Yes, it’s in the captain’s cabin. There is a portal there leading to the outside world.”

A smile appeared on the crew member’s face. It hadn’t eaten for so many years and was starving.

”Can we walk around the ship first? After all, if we agree, we’ll be staying here to work in the future. I’d like to familiarize myself with the work environment first.”

Lin Ye planned to go look for that portal.

He gleaned two pieces of information from the crew member’s words:

There is a portal on the ship. The portal is not in the captain’s cabin.”Fine, then come out.”

The crew member looked at Lin Ye with those eyes that were only empty holes.

”Okay.”

Lin Ye removed the blockade on the Abyssal Eye and looked behind the crew member.
