The terrified scream had only just begun when someone covered their mouth. Bai Cangshu looked indifferently at the bloodstained group. From their clothes, it was clear that these people had likely been living normal lives not long ago.
They were all dressed in the casual clothing of city dwellers, though it had now become tattered and ragged.
"Don’t scream… the Lord’s envoy has descended…"
"He killed the cult leader. It must be because the cult leader wasn’t devout enough. That’s it. These past two days, the cult leader kept telling me about separating the female followers. He wasn’t devout. He… deserved to die!"
A disheveled woman spoke in a shrill, trembling voice. Yet as she talked to herself, she seemed to have convinced herself. She suddenly viciously kicked the cult leader’s corpse several times.
Then, looking at the tall Bai Cangshu, she fell to her knees in devout worship. Her palms faced upward, her forehead pressed against the ground, and her entire body prostrated itself.
Bai Cangshu looked at the woman. She was clearly terrified beyond measure, and in her heart, she was cursing the dead cult leader without a trace of devotion.
"You aren’t devout either."
Bzzzt—splat!
A golden beam pierced through the back of the woman’s head, and her body instantly went limp.
The sight made those around them even more terrified, but what amused Bai Cangshu was that no one chose to flee.
These people were scared out of their wits, yet for all sorts of reasons, they would rather believe that he, this brutal man who had suddenly appeared, was an envoy sent by the lord of destruction to cleanse the human world than flee outside and face that nightmarish scene.
The corner of Bai Cangshu’s mouth curled up. Mantra had already made the scene outside perfectly clear to him. Beyond the stadium, the world was likely the most cruel and horrifying illustration from some strange tale.
Dozens of grotesque, twisted yokai were feasting on the flesh of the unlucky people who had been unable to enter because the stadium doors were locked.
As always, reincarnators had shown their lawless side in the mission world. In the original Gantz timeline, there had indeed been an event known as the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons.
During the Osaka arc of the original work, in order to defeat the first 100-point Boss, Nurarihyon, the protagonists of the Tokyo Team had been teleported to Osaka, where they faced enemies known as Yokai Aliens alongside the Osaka Team.
They were aliens who had arrived on Earth in an even more ancient era, leaving behind countless legends in this world.
Nurarihyon had even claimed that humans had worshipped him as a god in many different ages.
But compared to the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons in the original work, the scene outside could now practically be called hell on earth.
Crack!
The crisp sound of shattering glass rang out. There was probably a skylight made of special glass above the roof of this massive stadium, and it had just been smashed.
A huge scraping noise began to come from above the ventilation ducts.
At that moment, no one could remain calm any longer. They all scattered and fled in panic.
They had spent three nightmare-like days in Osaka, where man-eating yokai were everywhere. Their nerves were already on the verge of breaking. At the thought of those yokai about to rush in and feast upon them, they ran around like headless flies.
Bang!
The ventilation duct above them was finally smashed open.
At that moment, Bai Cangshu’s Purge Mission successfully loaded.
Purge Mission ActivatedMission Description: Purge reincarnator UH50522273 within 14 days. Every hour, you will receive location information for the reincarnator team members, including the target.Reward: In this world, Scavengers will receive an additional drop bonus. Killing reincarnators in this world will guarantee a Cleaner Scarlet Drop Card drop. Cleaner Scarlet Drop Cards can be used to extract a designated target.Scavenger EX051, location information is now being released for the first time.It was as if countless location details had instantly appeared in Bai Cangshu’s mind. As long as he focused on them, he could not only obtain the coordinates, but seemingly see the scene at those coordinates as well.
Bai Cangshu became increasingly satisfied with the work of a Scavenger.
Bang!
A black shadow crashed down before Bai Cangshu. It was a massive yokai, over ten meters long.
It had the naked upper body of a human woman, but its lower half was a hard, purplish-black body like that of a centipede.
The life force of the surrounding humans nearly drove the yokai out of control. She instantly lunged at Bai Cangshu, the closest person to her. Her centipede-like lower body wrapped around him while her upper body embraced him from behind.
Opening a mouth full of blood, she bit down at Bai Cangshu’s neck.

"How did this happen… How did we become aliens…?"
Qingyun, a White Sanctuary reincarnator wearing a black Gantz Suit, stood in the Osaka Black Ball Team’s room, his heart sinking deeper and deeper.
He tried to contact Omega through Telepathic Communication, but received no response.
Just moments ago, the Osaka Team, whose mission should have ended, had suddenly been teleported back into the Black Ball room by Gantz, which had issued them a new mission.
Mission: Kill Reincarnation Star PeopleThe mission name nearly made Qingyun’s heart stop. The powerful members of the Osaka Team did not realize the problem. They merely examined the targets displayed on the black ball.
Reincarnation Star Person: BonnieTraits: Fast, agilePoints: 45Reincarnation Star Person: LancerTraits: Flying dragon, calmPoints: 70Reincarnation Star Person: OmegaTraits: AlertPoints: 55...As line after line of information appeared, Qingyun became more and more alarmed. The pounding of his heart grew so loud that Oka Hachiro, who stood alone against a wall on the side of the room, turned his gaze toward him.
Qingyun was terrified that his own name would appear among them, but to his relief, the black ball seemed to have only marked the strongest veteran members. His name was not there.
Reincarnation Star Person: Scavenger Cleaner DukeTraits: Strong!! Dangerous!Points: 100...Reincarnation Star Person: Scavenger Mercenary TaoTraits: Strong!! Extremely dangerous!!Points: 100"Two 100-point Bosses? These Reincarnation Star People are no joke."
Muroya Nobuo, the captain of the Osaka Team who had earned 100 points four times, exhaled a mouthful of smoke and looked toward Oka Hachiro.
Even in their Black Ball Team, which had several members who had earned 100 points multiple times, Oka Hachiro was the only one who had ever defeated a 100-point Boss alone.
Oka Hachiro said nothing. He merely continued looking at Qingyun. This made the others realize that something was wrong. Qingyun had already displayed extraordinary skill during the previous mission.
Qingyun grew even more nervous. At that exact moment, their bodies began to disappear bit by bit from the top down.
Gantz had directly begun the teleportation. They would soon be sent straight to the Reincarnation Star People!
"Ah!"
The moment the Osaka Team completed their teleportation, Yamazaki Anzu let out a cry of alarm. The yokai all around them, feasting on various human corpses, instantly noticed the appearance of new humans and screeched as they pounced on the Osaka Team members.
But the Osaka Team, which had several members who possessed multiple 100-point weapons, reacted instantly. The dark-skinned, bald Shimaki drew his Nano Combat Blade and sliced the charging yokai apart in an instant.
When he turned around, Oka Hachiro had already vanished into invisibility.
"Hey, hey, did it just teleport us straight into a yokai nest?"
Bzzzt—bang!
A Gravity Field crashed down from the sky, instantly turning several yokai into pools of blood.
As one of Gantz’s 100-point weapons, the Gravity Gun was terrifyingly powerful. Several Gravity Guns from the Osaka Team fired in succession, rapidly clearing a huge area.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Qingyun took an electronic communicator from his Backpack, hung it on his ear, and immediately contacted his teammates.
"Captain, what the hell happened? Why did we become targets for the Black Ball Team?!"
Lancer did not speak. There were only muffled groans and terrifying Dragon Roars, until Omega’s voice finally came through.
"Little Qingyun, run. We’ve probably gotten ourselves into enormous trouble. It’s not just the space sending Scavengers after us. The Multi-Faced Star People probably want to capture us too…"
Omega fully realized what had happened. It was the Multi-Faced Star People. The Multi-Faced Star People had become aware of the reincarnators’ existence.
No, even more than that—the Multi-Faced Star People had become aware of the Infinite Dimensional Space, as well as the existence of other worlds.
That was why Ghost Talent could enter the House of Truth. It was not Ghost Talent who had found the Multi-Faced Star People. The Multi-Faced Star People had set their sights on Ghost Talent!
The Multi-Faced Star People were a race that could truly be called gods in this world. Their civilization had developed to an unimaginable extent.
Technologies such as Gantz were merely the most basic technologies the Multi-Faced Star People had passed on to Earthlings to fight the Four-Eyed Aliens.
The Multi-Faced Star People could not only create and destroy life with a thought using information, but also observe future timelines, observe the reincarnation of so-called souls, and determine when and where someone would be born.
Omega trembled at his own speculation. Cold sweat poured down his body. No wonder the space had not directly erased Ghost Talent, instead forcing them to purge Ghost Talent.
After his team had failed to do so, the space had even directly activated a Purge Mission and deployed Scavenger reincarnators.
He realized that it was likely because his team and the 74960 Team had gone too far in this world that the Multi-Faced Star People noticed this anomaly and eventually discovered the reincarnators’ existence.
Upon hearing Omega’s analysis, Qingyun completely panicked. This kind of disaster was not something an ordinary reincarnator team like theirs could possibly handle.
"I found the Reincarnation Star Person’s location!"
At that moment, Kuwabara Kazuo, who always kept his upper body naked due to severe sexual deprivation, shouted.
They immediately moved toward the stadium, whose outer wall was covered in bloodstains.
Hanaki Kyo sat on a Gantz Bike, using the motorcycle-linked computer together with the bike screen’s X-Ray Vision function to scan the stadium. He discovered the Reincarnation Star Person inside.
He pressed the analyze button, and the target’s information appeared on the computer.
Reincarnation Star Person: Scavenger Mercenary TaoPoints: 100Hanaki Kyo had not expected to find a full-score Boss right away.
"Great, it’s that full-score Boss, Mercenary Tao!"
Qingyun’s expression stiffened, and he immediately stopped. Looking at the others who had already reached the stadium entrance, he said, "You can have this Boss. I’ll go look for other… Reincarnation Star People."
Qingyun’s behavior immediately made the others find him even more suspicious. Shimaki directly held out his blade to block his way.
"You seem to be hiding something, Qingyun…"
Whoosh~
The sound of something tearing through the air rang out. Shimaki reacted instantly and turned around, only to see a fair, naked body flying toward him. He instinctively raised both hands to catch it.
Boom!
Terrifying force erupted in an instant. Shimaki and the fair, voluptuous body were both launched dozens of meters into the air before crashing into the street.
The sight stunned everyone else. When they turned back, they saw that the stadium doors had been smashed apart by the "female corpse" that had just flown out.
A human dragging a giant yokai’s severed remains walked out of the stadium. He continuously chewed something in his mouth before finally spitting it out.
"Not even a bit of meat on you, Centipede Demoness."
Bai Cangshu had not expected the first yokai he cooked to turn out so poorly. To quickly gain 50 points of Constitution, he had planned to cook and eat every yokai he could find in this world.
As his gaze shifted, he saw the person turning to leave. It was as though the space were deliberately prompting him; the words "Purge Mission" began flashing incessantly.
Qingyun froze in place. Icy killing intent enveloped him, turning his face pale. Even though he wore a Gantz Suit, a basic Reinforcement Suit that could let an ordinary person display nearly ten times their physical limit and was undeniably a beginner’s divine tool—
Even wearing it, he still felt as though a vicious ghost had fixed its gaze upon him, sending chills through his entire body.
Bzzzt!
Seeing Shimaki sent flying with a single blow, Muroya Nobuo realized how powerful this 100-point Boss was. He abruptly raised his Gravity Gun, locked onto Bai Cangshu, and fired.
Seeing the target standing there without reacting, Muroya Nobuo relaxed slightly.
A weapon like the Gravity Gun was difficult for flesh and blood to resist. Even reinforced concrete would be crushed into a depression by its Gravity Field.
As long as it was still made of flesh and blood, it would definitely—
Boom!
The Gravity Field descended, and a massive crater several meters wide instantly appeared. Muroya Nobuo’s heart leaped. Had he been crushed?!
The next moment, a hand seemed to appear out of nowhere behind his head.
Tap.
Bai Cangshu seemed to give him a gentle knock.
Then he continued walking toward the reincarnator.
Hanaki Kyo, who had also raised his weapon and aimed at Bai Cangshu, froze in place. He stared at Muroya Nobuo in disbelief.
"Hey, your Reinforcement Suit…"
The Reinforcement Suit, which could easily withstand gunfire, now began to leak blue fluid. That was the sign of a complete suit failure.
Muroya Nobuo swayed as he turned around. Dark purple blood flowed from his eyes, nostrils, and ears. He staggered forward two steps before collapsing limply, silent and still.
"He’s dead?!"
"He died from a light tap even while wearing a Reinforcement Suit?!"
Hanaki Kyo could not believe his eyes.
Terrifying. This 100-point Boss, Mercenary Tao, was terrifying beyond measure!
