Because now— they weren’t just fighting the system anymore. They were watching it… erase doubt in real time.

The man had pissed himself. “For fuck’s sake,” Marcus muttered. He zoomed into the back and found the surveillance system in a corner surrounded by piles of paperwork and discarded food. He pulled out the flash drive that was currently in it and found a half-full can of soda to spill on the old system. It fried instantly. It looked like the ones humans had used long before they advanced their technology, before they knew other species existed. There definitely wouldn’t be a backup stored in a remote server. When he came back around to the front, he grabbed the man by the collar, making eye contact. He didn’t think, just commanded.

"Then what should I ask?" The man smiled. A real smile this time. Then he said "You should be asking..." His eyes locked onto hers. "why the system chose you." Alina's mind suddenly went blank. Her pupils shrank instantly. Because at that exact moment the system completely froze. No alerts. No warnings. The red screen disappeared. the system vanished. Completely. "System?" she whispered. Nothing answered. The man's smile slowly disappeared and his expression became serious. Very serious. He stared behind Alina. And slowly, very slowly his eyes widened. "That's impossible."

"How long until I go back, System?" "Seven days. You have one week to bid farewell to this world." I lowered my gaze, understanding. Even if I didn't like my original world, I had no other choice. It took true betrayal from John for me to realize that there was no one more reliable in this world than myself. Rather than placing everything in someone else’s hands, it was better to take control myself. Meanwhile, a trending topic suddenly appeared on social media. It was footage of John and Ivy travelling together in Franconia. In the video, the two of them were inseparable, like newlyweds, their faces full of happiness.

~~Continuation~~ Ah! I panted, sweating profusely. “Yes, I suppose,” I replied, catching Mock grinning from the corner of my eye. Let's just play their game, at least for now. “Okay, then you must also know that you have more than one drug in your system, and they are different from each other,” she continued. “I wouldn’t know, Doc! I’m not a drug addict,” I snapped back. “Fine. Among all the drugs in your system, there is one that dominates them all, and it’s called MANA. Do you know what that is?” she asked again.

I forcefully pull him over to the side of the wall, the spears can only move according to what its owner saw before. The spear from MANA has a fast attack speed, but is poor in enemy recognition and speed for the owner when used.

But Joseph was a doctor. In the end, he went over to examine the man and discovered that the man had suffered cardiac arrest from excessive excitement. What a pervert. Joseph mocked the man inwardly, but still performed CPR. After the man was revived, Joseph called an ambulance, then returned to his room to rest. To prevent anyone else from calling again, he unplugged the hotel phone. The next morning, at the hotel buffet downstairs, Joseph ran into the middle-aged woman again. She even sat down at his table.

"That system is connected to your money system." Elena frowned. "What is the problem?" she asked.

Selene smiled. “You’re very quick.” Ryan frowned. “Can someone explain this in non-evil genius language?” Daniel spoke slowly. “A managed reset means letting parts of the system collapse… while protecting the most important parts.” Ryan blinked. “…So basically financial surgery.” Daniel nodded. “Yes.” Emily’s voice trembled slightly. “And millions of people will still suffer.” Selene didn’t deny it. “Yes.” Her honesty made the room colder. “But if we do nothing…” She looked at the screen again.
