"Since you want to play big, then I will grant your wish."
Steve looked down at the tiny clown below, his voice rolling down like thunder.
"I will freeze your entire Dread Domain, along with you, this piece of trash, together."
Buzz!
A terrifying chill centered around Steve, spreading madly in all directions.
At the same time, Steve activated his spatial superpower.
"Space Compression."
He forcibly compressed the space of the entire Dread Domain, solely to make the power of the next strike reach its absolute limit.
Crack, crack.
The red sky was frozen, the amusement park turned into a world of ice and snow, and even those vengeful spirits were instantly frozen in time.
"No... wait, let's talk this out."
Feeling that chill capable of destroying everything, the clown finally broke down and begged for mercy.
"I can submit, I can..."
"Too late."
Steve's eyes were icy, without any mercy.
At this moment, even he himself was sealed within a massive ice crystal.
"Ice Burst."
Boom!
A dazzling white light instantly swallowed the entire world.
The terrifying explosive force directly tore apart the spatial barriers of the Dread Domain.
A Totem of Undying on Steve's person instantly shattered, blocking this world-destroying blow for him.
As for Pennywise at the center of the explosion, he didn't even have time to scream before being completely annihilated in that extreme low temperature and explosion, with not even a speck of dust remaining.
"Just a clown, yet you dared to claim to be invincible?"
As the storm dissipated, Steve stood unharmed atop the ruins, holding a strange core emitting a red light in his hand, coldly spitting out a sentence.
"Take your amusement park and go perform in the Nether."
With that earth-shattering Ice Burst, the entire Hip-Hop Amusement Park shattered and vanished like a mirage.
The red mist receded, revealing the original appearance of this land—a dead, eerie forest of withered trees.
[Ding]
A pleasant mechanical notification sounded in Steve's mind.
[Initial Mission of the Paranormal World Completed]
[Mission rewards have been distributed: Detailed Explanation of the Paranormal System x1]
[New Mission Released: Paranormal Terminator]
[Mission Objective: Obtain 100 Paranormal Cores below S-rank (including S-rank)]
[Mission Rewards:]
[1. Paranormal Creature Cultivation Roadmap]
[2. Full set of formulas for Nerve Potential Development Serum (after consumption, it can significantly enhance brain computing power, logical thinking, and mental resilience; it is the key to unlocking super-brain evolution)]
"Nerve Potential Development Serum?"
Steve looked at the mission rewards, and his eyes instantly lit up; this thing was a treasure.
Although the current Starry Sky Base had advanced technology, most of it relied on MC and the system's black technology.
If they had this potion, the research speed of America's scientists would definitely explode exponentially.
"But... below S-rank?"
Steve weighed the core emitting a warm red light in his hand and asked in his mind.
"System, what rank was that Pennywise just now?"
[System Reply: B-rank, Domain Paranormal]
"Only B-rank?"
Steve was slightly surprised.
Although that guy's physical body was a bit fragile, if an ordinary fourth-tier expert entered that Dread Domain, they would definitely be played to death.
Such intensity was actually only B-rank?
He immediately took out the [Detailed Explanation of the Paranormal System] and flipped through it quickly.
As the pages turned, a large amount of information flooded into his mind.
The biological strength of the Paranormal World is divided from low to high: D, C... SSS.
Category Distinctions:
Rule Paranormals (Rule-based): Most lack self-awareness and act like pre-set programs; they rely solely on specific rules to kill. Although their intelligence is low, their rules are extremely overbearing and often ignore defenses.
Domain Paranormals (Domain-based): Possess extremely high intelligence and even retain memories from when they were alive. they come with their own Dread Domains, are nearly omnipotent within those domains, are extremely difficult to deal with, and excel at manipulating the human heart.
Paranormal Objects: Items that possess special abilities.
"I see."
Steve closed the book, lost in thought.
"Rule Paranormals are like landmines—they explode when stepped on. Domain Paranormals are like hunters—they actively set traps and lure prey. It seems there's still a long way to go."
With the disappearance of the Dread Domain, the previously blocked Teleportation Gate also returned to normal.
Steve looked back, thinking to leave the remaining Zombies to clear the area around the Teleportation Gate and build a temporary outpost, while this body would go ahead to scout the path.
Immediately, he flapped the wings on his back and flew toward a human city faintly visible in the distance... Meanwhile, in the Western Fantasy World.
Under the grey sky was a barren and desolate land.
The air was filled with the smell of sulfur and decay.
There was no sunlight here, only a haze that would never dissipate.
Buzz!
A massive Teleportation Gate lit up on a rocky beach.
Randy, Five-Tier Expert Dante... and the grand Five-Tier Zombie Legion behind them, like a black tide of Steel, stepped into this world.
"Is this the Western Fantasy World?"
Randy, controlling a Zombie body, scanned the surroundings with a deep frown.
What met his eyes was a dilapidated medieval-style town.
Among the ruins, hundreds of humans in rags and as thin as sticks were being driven like livestock by several two-meter-tall upright werewolves covered in black fur to carry massive stones.
Snap!
A thick leather whip lashed fiercely across the back of an old man who was slightly slow, instantly tearing his skin and flesh.
"Hurry up, you bunch of trash! If this altar isn't repaired before dark, you'll all become dinner."
That Werewolf overseer roared viciously, his foul-smelling saliva spraying all over the old man's face.
In a corner of the line, a little girl was struggling to carry a stone larger than her head, staggering along.
Suddenly, her foot slipped, and the stone rolled away, landing right by the foot of a passing Werewolf.
"Hehe little prey, you can't run."
A fierce light flashed in that Werewolf's eyes as he grabbed the little girl by the collar, lifting her into the air like a chick.
"Tsk tsk tsk, it's been a long time since I've eaten such a tender human cub."
The Werewolf stuck out his scarlet tongue and greedily licked his sharp fangs.
"Since you want to die so badly, then today I'll give you a quick death."
"Sob... don't eat me..."
"Annah, no, please don't."
Not far away, a woman in rags saw this and rushed over like crazy, thumping onto her knees at the Werewolf's feet, clutching its leg tightly and kowtowing repeatedly.
"I beg you, lord, please let her go! She's still small, eat me! Eat me! I have more meat!"
"Get lost! Stinking woman! Besides children are more tender!"
The Werewolf looked disgusted and raised that large foot, capable of crushing rocks, and kicked the woman hard in the chest.
Bang!
The woman flew out like a kite with a broken string, slamming heavily onto the ground, spitting blood, yet still struggling to crawl back up.
"My... child..."
The little girl was trembling all over, tears carving two channels through the dust on her face, but she still summoned her courage and cried out with a sob.
"Don't hurt mommy... I'll go with you..."
