Chapter 306: Yoru Kamidera

[Mysterious phenomenon: Stalker.]

[Mysterious phenomenon: Shadow.]

[Mysterious phenomenon: Call of the Ocean.]

...

Chen Chen looked through them one by one. Even he could not help but feel a little uneasy. According to this information, this sort of mysterious phenomena seemed to be everywhere — sea, land, and air.

Even if human beings were to take flight, hide underground or go out to sea, it was difficult to escape the tightening noose of these phenomena. Even if human beings stopped listening, seeing, and speaking, sealing off their five senses, they could still be plagued by mysterious phenomena like the “Woman in Dreams” whose rules were still unknown.

Living in this world was like being in the deepest pit of despair. No wonder the humans in this world only persisted for less than five years before they had almost gone extinct.

Moreover, such mysterious phenomena were completely beyond the framework of the existing scientific system. In other words, these strange existences had gone beyond the scope of physics, chemistry, and biology, and were more like a part of a brand new discipline that humans had never discovered...

As he reflected on this, Chen Chen continued to turn the pages and immediately saw the last mysterious phenomenon.

[Mysterious phenomenon: Ghost at the Window.]

[Symptoms: A mysterious phenomenon resembling the “Eye” pattern. The mysterious phenomenon begins with a “person” floating in mid-air. It has the appearance of a human being, but its body is ceaselessly contorted, like a ghost. Appearing mostly between high-rise buildings, it is extremely lethal to survivors living in such buildings. Anyone who sees it outside the window will undergo symptoms similar to the “Eye” pattern, and the survival rate is not more than ten percent.]

[Danger level: Level 3, extremely dangerous.]

[Method of infection: Visual infection, mostly between high-rise buildings.]

When he read about this mysterious phenomenon, Chen Chen immediately thought of the white-collar corpses who had died suddenly, which he found when he was exploring the office building and the woman who hanged herself in a high-rise apartment.

Before they died, the white-collar workers had turned their heads to the floor-to-ceiling window, apparently seeing something outside the window.

As for the woman who hanged herself in the high-rise apartment, she had covered the gla.s.s of the window completely before she died. She had been clearly frightened of something outside the window.

The woman was afraid of the “Ghost at the Window” because she had seen it with her own eyes, yet she had not died. This meant that she was immune to that kind of damage, just like how some people were immune to the “Eye” pattern. However, she did not realize this.

Thinking of this, Chen Chen sighed to himself. He continued turning the pages but found that the pages behind were all blank. The mysterious phenomenon that Chen Chen had first encountered at the apartment when he came to Gantz’s dimension was not in these records.

“Are there only these five Basilisk patterns and these few mysterious phenomena?”

Chen Chen raised his head and questioned the group of captives who were still bustling about in the hall.

At once, everyone hurriedly lowered their heads to avoid the sharp glint in Chen Chen’s eyes.

“These are all the weird incidents that have been heard from the members of each team since the establishment of this team.”

At this point, a fifteen or sixteen-year-old youth with long hair suddenly spoke. The boy had delicate features and pale skin. At first glance, Chen Chen had thought he was a woman.

When Chen Chen heard this, he shot the youth a look. Unlike the others, the youth’s eyes were not the panicked eyes of a captive, but were rather calm instead. At first glance, he seemed out of place in this world.

Even so, behind this calm surface, there was a dead expression, which came from an indifference to life and death. This young man had some unusual experiences that caused this to happen.

“Yeah, yeah!”

It was not until the youth spoke first that some of the captives stammered and explained, “All of our known mysterious phenomena have been recorded in there. This volume of information is also the most precious item in our team. To survive in this world, this information is indispensable...”

Chen Chen lifted his chin, handed the information to the Black Knight beside him, and said, “X-112, record all the patterns inside.”

“Understood.”

The voice of X-112 came from the earphones. Chen Chen thought for a while and glanced at the somewhat unusual youth again.

The youth was wearing a T-s.h.i.+rt that was clearly becoming thin. It was rather faded and dirty, but it could not mask his androgynously attractive face.

At this time, the youth was swiftly bandaging a wounded person with skillful movements. However, unlike the others, he looked indifferent even when facing the wounded person as if he did not care about the injury of his companion.

It was not just this young man. Chen Chen noticed that this numb, detached look was also present in the eyes of several other women. Except for those women who were in a relations.h.i.+p with the men in the team, the women’s affiliation to the team was apparently not that simple.

These women were much more haggard than the others. Their bodies were thin and their clothes were ragged...

At once Chen Chen suddenly understood the role of these women.

Nonetheless, Chen Chen was not too surprised in this regard. After all, this was the tradition of the East China Sea Continent. Even as early as World War II, this country already had a similar social configuration.

The only thing that astonished Chen Chen was that this group of people did not even spare young boys. It was unscrupulous.

However, this matter had nothing to do with Chen Chen. Currently, he still had in mind his original mission in coming to Gantz. After X-112 had recorded the information provided by the team, Chen Chen stood up and directed a question at this group of people.

“Do any of you know the location of the nearest North American military base in the East China Sea Continent?”

Everyone stared at him, but no one answered Chen Chen.

Faced with this silence, Chen Chen raised his eyebrows in response and was about to continue to inquire, but at this moment, the youth suddenly spoke, “I know where. But the place has also been abandoned.”

Chen Chen looked at the youth. “How do you know?”

“I went there to seek asylum three years ago.”

The youth replied, “Not just there — I’ve also been to the military base where the East China Sea Self-Defense Force is located, but there’s nothing there besides corpses and ruins.”

Chen Chen just nodded. He must admit that this young man looked as if he was only eleven or twelve years old three years ago. It was admirable that he was able to survive alone in this peculiar apocalypse at that age.

“What’s your name?” Seeing this, Chen Chen instinctively asked with some interest.

“Yoru Kamidera.”

The young man lowered his head slightly as if to indicate respect for someone stronger. “Your Excellency, my name is Yoru Kamidera.”

“Very well, are you interested in coming with me?”

After Chen Chen’s question, the young man showed an emotion other than indifference for the first time. He seemed to be stunned, yet Chen Chen clearly observed that, among the group of captives who were asked to sit in the hall, two or three of them who seemed to be the ones in command had an abrupt s.h.i.+ft in their expressions as if there was an unwilling glint in their eyes.

Of course, this unwillingness was not necessarily because they were exploiting the youth in that way. Rather, maybe this youth played another part in improving the lives of these people during this doomsday.

Seeing this, a smile curled up at the corner of Chen Chen’s mouth. He knew that he had guessed correctly.
