I Can Incarnate Everything - Chapter 27

Chapter 27: A Terrifying Thing

Line Time 12.00 am.

Ji Yu was woken up by his alarm clock.

Ji Yu slept soundly and contentedly. It had been a long time since he had a deep sleep without dreams.

“Not bad. I feel a lot more energized.”

Ji Yu stretched himself before getting up.

He had intended to go to the toilet to wash his face before entering the game to complete today’s mission.

However, just as Ji Yu stood up, he suddenly heard the piercing sound of the siren from outside the window that he had not heard for more than a month.

“Purple Moon phenomenon is happening. All households are to draw their curtains and close their windows. Do not wander outside.”

“According to Line’s Federation law for public security, during this period, anyone who goes out during the Purple Moon phenomenon will be detained for at least seven days…”

The siren was loud enough for the entire neighborhood to hear it clearly.

“Purple Moon?”

Ji Yu frowned and opened a small gap through the window.

A full moon hung in the sky.

However, this full moon was completely dyed purple.

The streets were dark, and the place which was illuminated by the violet light seemed unusually tranquil.

“No wonder I didn’t hear any noise from the traffic when I woke up. The Purple Moon has appeared again, huh.”

Ji Yu’s apartment was close to a six-lane road leading to the airport. Usually, it was noisy even if it was two or three in the morning.

However, right now, there was not a single car on the road.

According to his past experiences, when the Purple Moon appeared, there would definitely be elderly who would crowd around, unafraid of the potential dangers, chatting at the reception lobby on the first floor of the apartment.

Although it was late at night, Ji Yu felt that that was inevitable.

Therefore, in order to find out if there were any victims in the neighborhood, Ji Yu decided to take a look downstairs.

The Purple Moon phenomenon was definitely not that simple. Although Ji Yu still did not know how dangerous the Purple Moon phenomenon was, it wouldn’t hurt to pay more attention to it.

Thinking about that, Ji Yu immediately began to move.

After putting on his clothes and pants, he left the house.

Entering the elevator, there were indeed a few people going down.

However, most of these people were young and middle-aged people.

“She is really such a busybody who is unafraid of the dangers. It’s already so late and she’s still chatting downstairs. I really have to hand it to my mom.”

“Let’s not talk about your mom. My father’s the same. To think that he used to be a policeman. Now, he actually believes in all these strange things. I wonder where he gets his energy from at night.”

“…”

Most of these people were ranting, and it was obvious that they were helpless against their elders.

Ji Yu only found it amusing.

It was the same everywhere. It wasn’t just the village elders who liked to talk about strange things. The elders in the city were the same too.

Moreover, the Purple Moon phenomenon was indeed hard to comprehend, so this type of discussion would naturally attract the attention of old people.

They reached the first floor.

A group of elderly men and women were gathered in the lobby on the first floor. Of course, there were also some younger housewives and teenagers who joined in the fun.

The lobby on the first floor was not small, about 70 to 80 square meters. If one included the corridors, it would have no problems accommodating over 100 people.

After all, this was a high-class district, and the public lobby was a good resting area.

At this moment, the glass wall and door facing outwards had already been covered by a thick layer of grey curtain. The crowd was quietly and safely chatting inside.

Ji Yu walked around, catching bits and pieces of conversation around. In the end, all he heard was some unreliable information.

Ji Yu came to a conclusion.

He had nothing better to do by remaining here, so he should hurry back to sleep.

No, he had to hurry back to the game and get down to business.

Thinking about that, Ji Yu no longer had the intention to continue listening around.

After entering the elevator, Ji Yu soon returned to the fifteenth floor.

However, the moment Ji Yu stepped out of the elevator, he saw a familiar granny standing motionless in front of her door.

This granny was Ji Yu’s neighbor. Ji Yu had lived here for a few years, and they had seen each other frequently and could be considered as close friends.

Thus, upon seeing her, Ji Yu intended to greet her.

“Granny Li, why are you standing at your door so late at night? Hurry back to your apartment to rest.”

Ji Yu smiled and walked towards the granny.

Strangely enough, not only did Granny Li not reply to Ji Yu enthusiastically, she continued to stand motionlessly in front of the door.

Seeing this, Ji Yu was stunned, but at the same time he didn’t think much of it.

Since Granny Li was close to 80 years old, she might be hard of hearing. Perhaps she forgot to bring her keys?

Therefore, when he walked to Granny Li’s side this time, he wanted to ask kindly again.

However, the moment Ji Yu approached Granny Li, she suddenly turned to look at him.

Ji Yu was scared out of his wits at what he saw.

Ji Yu could safely say that he had never seen such a terrifying scene in his entire life.

Granny Li turned her head, but her body did not turn around.

Her head turned 180 degrees without any hindrance.

Furthermore, her eyes were currently two dark and empty holes, and within the holes, there was a hint of purple.

Ji Yu didn’t even have the chance to curse out before Granny Li’s body turned into a black mist.

There was a ball of purple light swirling within the black mist, and it charged into Ji Yu’s body without any warning.

Upon the impact of the purple light, Ji Yu fell backwards onto the floor on his butt.

The pain allowed Ji Yu to finally recover from his shock.

However, after regaining his senses, Ji Yu’s originally frightened expression actually slowly calmed down.

[Ding, detected harmful substances invading the player’s body]

[Ding, detected harmful substances entering the player’s sea of consciousness]

[Ding, harmful substances have been dispersed by the massive consciousness of the player and his manifestation]

Three notifications appeared in Ji Yu’s eyes. He took a deep breath and stood up slowly.

At that moment, Granny Li’s door opened.

“Eh? Brother Ji? Were you the one who shouted outside my house just now? What’s the matter?”

The person who opened the door was Granny Li’s grandson. He was only 19 years old and had just graduated from high school this year. His results were not good, but he was quite good at games. In the past, when Ji Yu was free on weekends, he would often duo with this kid in ranked matches.

However, in recent months, because of Ji Yu’s tuberculosis, it had been a long time since he played with Li Hao.

Looking at Li Hao, Ji Yu smiled.

“Nothing, I was just on the phone.”

“Really?” Li Hao looked at Ji Yu suspiciously.

However, Ji Yu didn’t care whether this kid believed him or not. Instead, he immediately smiled and asked, “Oh right, I haven’t seen your grandma for a long time. How has she been recently?”

“Grandma?”

Li Hao was silent for a while. After a while, he said, “My grandmother passed away two weeks ago.”

Li Hao’s words silenced Ji Yu.

“I’m sorry…”
