Chapter 911 482: The End of Dharma in a High-Energy World

"What the hell is this?"

Gu Shanhai looked at the rental apartment, his expression somewhat bewildered, this time truly confused.

Because the virtual platform he had located for transfer ended up being an old computer, and this place was a tidily maintained rental apartment.

"The suppression is quite severe, the energy inertness is immense."

"Gives me a feeling of wanting to sprout."

The lack of energy circulation doesn't imply its scarcity; on the contrary, in terms of energy level, it's even higher than the world of the Da Xuan Dynasty; it's just that it cannot be utilized.

This is also considered the End of Dharma.

The suppression naturally comes from the energy inertness, akin to an extremely slow-circulating pond in the whole world, or even worse, stagnant water.

Trying to absorb and use it is essentially impossible.

Any Transcendent would be suppressed in the face of this energy inertness.

But Gu Shanhai is different, he is not a human, he is a world, so the influence is minimal; of course, in this environment, he wouldn't display anything Transcendent related, as it'd be too conspicuous.

He then used his Spiritual Sense through the internet to quickly understand the situation of this world.

The world is quite normal, just a regular modern society, though the level of technology isn't high; computers and the internet are just beginning, in the embryonic stage of entering the information era.

As for the rental apartment he is in, he also found related information.

The previous tenant died suddenly here a few dozen days ago due to excessive gaming, and the family was later informed to take the body away.

The belongings were left behind as nobody took them, seemingly because they felt it was unlucky.

One must admit, it's indeed a wealthy family, just this computer alone would cost at least several thousand.

"It's possible to rent it." Gu Shanhai thought the Modern Law Demon might be related to this old computer, and the sudden death of the previous tenant might also be linked to this matter.

"I'll need to get some documentation, otherwise renting will be troublesome."

Renting a place isn't just about liking it and paying a deposit; that's not reliable at all.

They'll need a copy of your ID, and you have to sign a contract; after all, as strangers, it's not possible to make a verbal agreement on these matters.

Gu Shanhai naturally became an undocumented individual upon arriving in this world; he must go through proper channels, treating himself as an undocumented person is enough.

With technology not being advanced, he doesn't have to worry about being taken advantage of.

"It's a shame the pages of the Time History Book can't be used, otherwise I could easily replace them." Gu Shanhai glanced at the page of the Time History Book and found that in this world, the suppression formed by energy inertness also made the pages of the Time History Book out of place.

"Crashed? What's this? An unexpected surprise?" Gu Shanhai's expression was peculiar; he didn't expect that this world could indirectly assist him in researching the pages of the Time History Book.

"With these aids, the time required can at least be reduced by nearly tenfold."

As Gu Shanhai thought about these things, he was handling identity issues with one hand while contacting the landlord for the lease with the other.

These bureaucratic matters were troublesome; Gu Shanhai wanted to be quick, but since he couldn't directly use Transcendent abilities, it took nearly a whole day to finalize it.

Ultimately, he moved in with only a bag; the process was very smooth.

The landlord was also an honest person, explained the situation of this rental apartment to Gu Shanhai, and finally, under Gu Shanhai's firm request, he successfully moved in, but also requested a rent reduction.

Gu Shanhai at least had to show an appropriate attitude; otherwise, why would someone want to live in a house where someone had died.

The landlord also had a sudden realization, finally understanding why Gu Shanhai wanted to live here; it was simply out of financial constraint. If he were truly well-off, he wouldn't live in such an unlucky place.

The landlord, considering it a profit as long as it's rented, was quick to reduce the rent, directly asking for only half the price.

Otherwise, if it wasn't rented, he wouldn't earn a penny.

He could certainly choose not to disclose this matter and then re-rent it, but how could such a major issue be hidden? If tenants caused trouble later, he'd have a headache. It's better to rent to someone like Gu Shanhai, who is poor yet brave.

After moving in, the landlord reconnected the utilities of the rental apartment, as nobody was living there before, water and electricity were cut off to avoid any issues.

"Finally, it's all settled, going through the procedures is troublesome." Gu Shanhai sat in front of the computer and turned it on.

Money isn't a concern either; although he couldn't use it directly, indirectly conjuring some money inside himself and then taking it out for use wasn't a big deal.

The computer booted up rather slowly; in this world, it might be high-end, but in Gu Shanhai's eyes, it was really just an old computer.

After booting up, Gu Shanhai found the desktop to be very tidy, without any clutter, and besides the necessary built-in programs, there was only one game icon named "Civilization Road."

Gu Shanhai didn't open the game immediately but found the source files for inspection.

"An empty shell." After checking, Gu Shanhai came to this conclusion.

Then he directly opened the game.

A strategy game-like interface appeared.

"Can't log in? Looks like identification is needed."

Gu Shanhai watched the various images constantly appearing on the game interface.

Clicking with the mouse had no effect.

"Come to think of it, might it not be able to identify me making registration impossible?" Gu Shanhai suddenly remembered this matter.
