Chapter 1 Wisdom's Pride

Every time an enemy failed to answer the brain-teaser question posed by the question space, the Book of Wisdom felt an incomparable sense of accomplishment.

It felt that its IQ had completely crushed the opponent, a feeling that gave it immense satisfaction.

Moreover, within the question space, the Book of Wisdom could electrocute its opponents at will. As long as the opponent's strength didn't exceed its own by too much, it could play around for a while.

The Killer Clown had almost been broken by the Book of Wisdom. When he reappeared, his body was charred black from electricity, and he found himself on the other side of Morning Light Amusement Park.

Although he hadn't suffered any fatal injuries, the pain of being tormented and humiliated drove him crazy. He brandished his knife, searching for Shen Wei and the others throughout the park.

The haunted house employee playing the Killer Clown, holding the little girl's hand, ran quickly ahead. He glanced back as he ran, seeing that Shen Wei had fallen far behind.

"Xiao Yue, I told you we shouldn't have trusted him. With his strength, how could he save us? He can barely protect himself..."

"Brother Yan, don't say that about him. Brother is already trying very hard. Look, he's catching up..."

Xiao Yue glanced back and said to the haunted house employee playing the Killer Clown.

"Kid, this guy is pretty skilled, and he even has a strange artifact. His identity might be the same as yours, a Chosen One..." The Evil God's right hand, silent for a long time, suddenly spoke.

Shen Wei was shocked. "Are you saying he's also a Chosen One trapped in a Rule Anomaly instance because of a failed mission?"

"That's right."

With the Book of Wisdom holding him back, Shen Wei finally shook off the Killer Clown and caught up.

"I've seen people like you in a curiosity museum before. Due to various reasons, you failed your missions and were forced to become NPCs in Rule Anomalies, guiding and protecting new Chosen Ones. Oh, right, that guy selling drinks should be the same as you..."

Shen Wei ran alongside the haunted house employee playing the Killer Clown!

The haunted house employee, playing the Killer Clown, was silent for a few seconds. Then, he took off the clown mask he was wearing and threw it away, revealing a rather young male face.

"Xiao Yue's inner world has disappeared. This thing is useless now. I admit you're right, I am indeed a Chosen One. My name is Yan Bei. I've been trapped in this Morning Light Amusement Park as an NPC for some time now, but my initial instance wasn't Morning Light Amusement Park..."

The young man named Yan Bei suddenly sounded melancholic.

Shen Wei was very surprised to hear that the instance Yan Bei was trapped in wasn't actually Morning Light Amusement Park. But soon, he understood the key point.

Shen Wei ran quickly and said to the young man named Yan Bei, "I know which Rule Anomaly instance you fell into! You were trapped in the *Orphan* instance; it's the theme of the haunted house you were in..."

Hearing what Shen Wei said, Yan Bei smiled wryly.

"You are indeed quite clever. The instance where I failed my mission was indeed *Orphan*. The mission at the time was to investigate the source of pollution in the orphanage and deal with it. It was supposed to be a simple task, but I screwed it up. Of the dozen or so Chosen Ones who entered together, only two survived. One was me, and the other was that guy at the food stall."

Shen Wei was shocked to hear him say that.

"So, the 'He' in Morning Light Amusement Park was released by you..."

"That's right, I'm the culprit. The Virgin Mary who specializes in harming people, or rather, the living Xiao Yue, was released by me. At the time, I felt sorry for her, so I let her out of that terrible place! But I never expected that she was the final boss and the source of pollution in the orphanage. That's a dual timeline instance. The source of pollution was created in my hands. It's no exaggeration to say that I'm primarily responsible for this hellish scene!"

"I'm sorry, brother. I'm the one who caused you to be trapped here..."

Seeing Yan Bei take all the blame on himself, Xiao Yue felt very bad.

"Don't say that, Xiao Yue. I never regretted doing that. Shen Wei, you don't know what Xiao Yue and the others went through in that terrible place. Those people are beasts, worse than beasts. Seeing them being killed one by one by Xiao Yue's resentment body, to be honest, I even felt a perverted sense of pleasure..."

Seeing Yan Bei, the culprit who caused all of this, Shen Wei couldn't bring himself to hate him. He even felt a trace of admiration in his heart.

"Yan Bei, you don't need to say the rest. I saw it all in the illusion in the haunted house. After that, the *Orphan* instance merged with Morning Light Amusement Park, or rather, the *Orphan* instance was swallowed by Morning Light Amusement Park. Later, for some reason, the vengeful Xiao Yue split into two parts. One is the 'He' in the amusement park now, and the other is the Xiao Yue with us, right?"

Yan Bei nodded. "What you said is basically correct. I've already confessed. Now it's your turn. What is the path to survival?"

Shen Wei looked up at the dark sky and finally said in a low voice, "Rule 1 of the Morning Light Amusement Park Visitation Rules: Due to special reasons, Morning Light Amusement Park is only open at night. Note: Morning Light Amusement Park is always in the dark and will never dawn. (Red Text). To end this game, we must make it dawn, but how can we make it dawn? There are two ways: one is to make the sun rise, the sunlight shine on the earth, and completely dispel the darkness..."

"But this method is not realistic. Chosen Ones of our level simply cannot dispel the power laid down by the master of Morning Light Amusement Park, which is 'He'. So, we can only find another way, using artificial means to make this Morning Light Amusement Park dawn again. And this method is also hidden in the rules, and even gave us multiple hints in Morning Light Amusement Park..."

"Have you all seen this newspaper? Do you remember the date on it?"

Shen Wei took out the four pieces of torn newspaper from his pocket and shook them at Yan Bei and Xiao Yue.

"The time on this newspaper is chaotic. It's already been changed by 'He'. Most of the information left on it is useless. It might even be misleading if you look at it..."

Xiao Yue said innocently, glancing at the four torn newspapers.

"Xiao Yue is right. The year on these four newspapers has indeed been distorted and changed by 'He', but the date hasn't. This date of January 1st is very important to 'He'..."
