Woke Up to Find the Game I Made Came True

Ye Bai was still trying to organize her words to explain to everyone how she knew which direction to choose when Guzan's eyes lit up, and without hesitation, he threw a punch forward.

"Thud!"

A dull sound echoed as the thick, smooth metal wall immediately caved in, leaving a dent.

Kunni of the Kule Clan stepped forward and shot a beam of light, causing sparks to fly from the damaged gap in the metal. The melted opening revealed broken machinery and a small breach.

Liko's skin detected a faint airflow. "It really is an exit!"

Ye Bai smiled. "Actually, as an ancient human, I have a special intuition when it comes to survival and danger..."

She was about to elaborate with some evolutionary theory, like how ancient humans had developed this talent due to their weaker physical constitution, but—

"Great! Let's get out of here!"

"Ye Bai, we're counting on you now!"

Everyone rushed toward the exit, quickly widening the breach with their combined efforts, and soon a passage was opened.

Ye Bai: "..."

Well, no one seemed to care.

It was as if everyone had already assumed that anyone appearing at this auction would possess unique abilities. After all, the universe was vast, and strange things were commonplace. They themselves were races with special abilities, which was why they had been captured by the Markus Group and brought here to be auctioned off.

What they didn’t know was that Ye Bai had ended up at the auction purely because she was a "one-of-a-kind rarity." In the eyes of the Markus Group, her value lay solely in her unique status. She had been kidnapped without even realizing it.

As ​​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​​‌‌​‌​‌​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​‌​‌​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​​‌‌‌​​‌​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌‌​​​​​‌‌​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌​​​‌‌​​​‌​​‌‌​​​‌​‌‌​​‌​​‍for how Ye Bai had managed to pinpoint the exit so accurately, it was due to the peculiar nature of her psychic abilities.

After observing the four states of her psychic energy—awake, unconscious, restrained, and in combat—Ye Bai was certain that other psychics couldn’t extend or reshape their energy as flexibly as she could.

The stronger the psychic energy of others, the larger their area of influence. To Ye Bai, it appeared as a radiant glow, but the further it spread, the weaker its effect became. In contrast, her psychic energy was like a ghost, able to function normally even when temporarily detached from her body.

At the same time, Ye Bai had noticed that when the others used their abilities, their psychic energy underwent changes. The most complex form she had seen was the intricate, 18-sided snowflake that appeared when Silienna summoned her red spear.

These different transformations seemed to correspond to their unique abilities.

This observation led Ye Bai to a bold idea. She chose to mimic Liko, whose psychic energy took the simplest form—a whirlwind.

Miraculously, it worked!

Ye Bai suddenly gained a heightened sensitivity to air currents, a sensation entirely different from using magic. It was as if this ability had naturally emerged from reshaping her psychic energy.

Moreover, perhaps due to her inherent insight, Ye Bai's "knockoff" ability turned out to be even sharper and more precise than Liko's original power. That was how she had accurately identified the correct path.

This discovery gave Ye Bai a new way to utilize her psychic energy. However, she quickly realized that, aside from Liko, the youngest in the group, she couldn’t replicate the abilities of the others.

It wasn’t that her psychic energy wasn’t flexible enough—it was a matter of "quantity." She lacked the necessary energy to fully replicate their forms.

Was it a matter of psychic energy level?

"Boom!"

The sound of the group breaking through the second layer of the passage snapped Ye Bai out of her thoughts.

"There's the exit!"

This level was clearly a staff activity area. They soon found an upward staircase, with the faint sound of hurried footsteps retreating above.

Silienna took the lead, chasing after the sounds, with the others following closely behind. They soon arrived at a massive factory floor.

While the others were stunned by the sight, Ye Bai had already "seen" this place before.

This was the factory where all the nutrient pods were stored. The conveyor belts were inactive, likely due to the emergency, but dozens of nutrient pods still lay scattered across the floor. The footsteps of the guests and Markus Group escorts echoed from another passageway.

The emergency elevator couldn’t accommodate the entire auction group, so some were being escorted through the safety passage by Markus armed guards.

Silienna glanced at the nutrient pods and then at the direction the enemy had fled. Her experience as a mercenary quickly led her to the best tactical decision. "You all free these people. I'll go ahead and hold them off while clearing the path."

"Got it!"

No one disagreed, and they immediately sprang into action.

However, when the five of them approached the nutrient pods, they found them empty.

At that moment, Ye Bai walked over to a flat area and asked the others, "Can we break this?"

Without question, they proceeded to smash the ground Ye Bai had indicated, revealing a hidden chamber filled with unconscious individuals. Their hair was damp, and their bodies were stained with nutrient fluid. Clearly, they had been moved from the nutrient pods into this secret room via some mechanical device.

The Markus Group had been running this underground operation for years. Evacuating guests and hiding "merchandise" were all part of a well-established emergency protocol.

Fortunately, Ye Bai's psychic energy was particularly adept at detecting nearby life forms. As soon as she approached, she sensed the unconscious psychic energies below. Even more fortunate was that those hidden in the chamber were all D-level psychics.

"Wake up, wake up!"

But a new problem arose. Despite their efforts to rouse the unconscious individuals, the heavy dose of anesthesia kept them from waking up.

D-level psychics didn’t receive psychic inhibitors—instead, they were given larger doses of anesthetic drugs.

Watching Guzan wave his massive hands over the tiny heads of the unconscious, seemingly tempted to slap them awake, Ye Bai couldn’t help but twitch at the thought of how much worse that might make things.

Then, an idea struck her. She recalled how her fellow "prisoners" had reacted when she tested her psychic energy on the ship.

D-level psychics should be able to handle it... right?

Time was running out, so Ye Bai didn’t hesitate. She released her psychic energy, gently brushing against the person Guzan was holding.

"...Ahhh!!!"

The previously lifeless figure suddenly shot up, eyes wide and body trembling. Their limbs flailed awkwardly as if they’d been jolted by an electric shock, and they collided headfirst with Guzan's forehead.

"Ouch!" x2@@novelbin@@

Both Guzan and the other person cried out in pain.

"..." Ye Bai swore she had only "brushed" them!

After the brief chaos, the person finally regained full consciousness, though they still looked shaken.

From there, things became much simpler. Everyone assumed Guzan's imposing figure had some mysterious effect, so he took the lead in waking the others while Ye Bai secretly followed behind, "brushing" them with her psychic energy.

In the end, the situation was resolved smoothly.

Aside from Guzan questioning whether he was "handsome enough," the other four, along with the newly awakened twenty-plus D-level psychics, eagerly followed the path Silienna had cleared, racing toward the freedom they had longed for.

...

"Useless, useless! You Markus fools, how did you even manage to intercept me in that secret war?"

"Hahaha, so weak. Just die already!"

"Boom..."

Silienna descended like a demon god, cutting through the retreating guests with unstoppable force, swiftly approaching the surface.

During this time, all the fifth and fourth-level employees recuperating in the Marcus Group's hospital had no choice but to rise from their sickbeds and take up arms to fight.

However, the Marcus Group lacked core combatants whose mental bodies were unscathed. Those employees who hadn’t received the company’s funding to register for a Star Network account were, in terms of both strength and loyalty, a step below.

Moreover, the Tianluo Clan’s reputation as a natural-born warrior race was no joke. They possessed unique combat instincts, and as their fighting spirit soared, they could recover both physical and mental energy during battle. In gaming terms, they auto-recovered health and mana in combat mode. Unless dealt a massive blow in one strike, they only grew stronger the longer the fight dragged on.

What’s more, facing a B-level psychic like Silienna, D-level and C-level opponents were no match at all, falling in a single encounter.

What truly delayed Silienna’s advance were the various mechanical defenses along the way.

Even so, Silienna’s relentless destruction cleared a smooth path for Ye Bai and the others following behind.

Occasionally, small squads of Marcus Group’s armed forces would attempt to block them, but the four C-level and over twenty D-level psychics handled them with ease.

……

In a secret communication, Mega, the only one uninjured in the Myriad Realms, said to Pence and Hude, “You two go and hold off that Tianluo Clan member for a while. I’ll go release Subject 9.”

The two exchanged glances, their faces lighting up with excitement. “Has Subject 9 been successfully developed?”

“Yes,” Mega replied, then turned to operate the control panel behind him.

“Good,” the two said before ending the communication. They were well aware of Subject 8’s power, which, despite its limited sustainability, rivaled that of a B-level psychic. If Subject 9 was even stronger, combined with their own strength, they could surely suppress Silienna together!

While the two directors went to intercept Silienna, Mega, who had turned to the control panel, did not release the so-called “Subject 9” as he had claimed.

“It’s all because of those two idiots…”

Mega connected to the Star Network, transmitted all the lab’s data to someone, and then pressed the [Self-Destruct] button for the entire laboratory. He changed into casual clothes and quickly left through a hidden passage.

……

“You dare show yourselves?”

Seeing Pence and Hude step out to block her, Silienna’s face lit up with delight. She had heard other employees refer to them as directors.

Just when she thought the Marcus Group’s higher-ups had cut their losses and fled, these two had the audacity to confront her. She charged forward, her fighting spirit surging, swiftly overwhelming the two and forcing them into retreat.

Pence and Hude grew increasingly uneasy as they waited in vain, but they were already trapped in Silienna’s combat zone, unable to escape.

A thousand meters away from the battlefield of the three B-level psychics, at the mouth of a massive ventilation shaft…

“Boom…”

A deafening explosion erupted from the Marcus Group’s building, immediately disturbing the nearby exhibition park.

Visitors from various civilizations who had come to Marcus Star to enjoy the regular exhibition performances were drawn by the unusual commotion. Using the portable viewing devices they carried for the exhibitions, they turned their gaze toward the source of the disturbance.

As the dust settled, a blue-collared giant with a highly distinctive appearance was the first to emerge from the blown-open hole, followed by other rare races with striking features—the Tin Clan, the Kro Clan, the Kule Clan…

Along the way, the group rescued by Ye Bai and the others grew from twenty-something to over a hundred, and now exceeded a thousand. At this moment, all the intelligent beings kidnapped and imprisoned by the Marcus Group—their “inventory”—were finally seeing the light of day.

Many gazed up at the unfamiliar trio of stars in the Marcus Star System, tears streaming down their faces:

“We’re free!”
