The Abyssal Garden: No Room for the Idle-Chapter 47: Is This a Miracle?
The doors and windows of the office hut were tightly closed, not allowing the slightest sound to escape.
The desk that had once belonged to the Scorpion Supervisor had now become Su Qi's place.
Su Qi sat in his chair, twisting the Rubik's Cube in his hands.
"Brother Su, tea for you."
A person with a cat's head and tail excitedly brought over a cup of hot tea.
"Where did this come from?" Su Qi looked at the tea leaves in his cup.
"From that guy's storage locker." It hummed, "Now everyone is turning the tables and torturing him to vent the humiliation they suffered."
It seemed that once the Scorpion Supervisor lost his intimidating presence, everyone else's courage had greatly increased.
"Then why didn't you go?"
It said with shame, "There were too many people, I couldn't squeeze in."
"However." It solemnly said, "We all understand that all of this is thanks to you, Brother Su. Everyone has seen hope, and no matter what happens next, we will not back down. We will follow Brother Su's commands in everything."
Su Qi glanced at it, "It seems you're the spokesperson for them now, what's your name?"
"My parents liked eating pomelos, so my name is Pomelo Cat."
"...."
Su Qi felt it sounded familiar, he paused, "Alright then, go tell everyone to leave him with a breath, don't kill him."
"And prepare yourselves, once it gets dark, we'll commence the operation."
"Understood!"
Listenting to the Scorpion Supervisor's pitiful pleas for mercy from the hall, Su Qi began to contemplate the pre-battle deployment.
The situation had become very clear now.
Just two enemies.
One Elite Boss Pig-man and one Big Boss Sheep Head Dean; the former was tough-skinned, but not that difficult... The latter, however, was key, for Su Qi didn't know what sort of strength the opponent possessed.
On his own side, aside from the assortment of... miscellaneous soldiers in this room.
The main attacker was still Su Qi himself.
His combat power also had some guarantees now.
First, his level had been restored to Level 5, plus the night had come—augmented by the Night Demon Gene, he now possessed a Strength and Movement Technique of double 40.
Currently, he had the "Return Spring" bestowed by the Pig-man, and he had unlocked the Skill "Thunderbolt," which was his most powerful move thus far, naturally becoming his trump card.
The two could also be used in combination.
The rest was the toxic scorpion tail... and the Rubik's Cube he was twisting in his hands.
Su Qi looked at the Rubik's Cube in his hand.
This was the second exclamation mark he encountered in this instance, the information was also simple.
"[Return the scrambled Rubik's Cube to order 50 times, current progress 47/50]"
Each time an exclamation mark appeared, it would either relate to a hidden plot or yield a special item.
And it often involved some... well, behaviors that didn't match the theme.
"Just two more times left."
Su Qi watched the Rubik's Cube that had just been solved, only to be scrambled again the next moment, and then his fingers deftly made their turns.
He... knew a lot of things, and the Rubik's Cube happened to be part of his expertise.
The last time.

"[Progress reached 50]"
As this message appeared, Su Qi noticed that the Rubik's Cube seemed to have absorbed a hint of strength and presence from thin air, transforming into something different, much like the situation with the previously encountered "Hundred Man Slaughter Blade."
Immediately after... it transformed into a sphere of light and merged into Su Qi's body.
"Click!"
The door opened in response.
This scene was simultaneously witnessed by the Snake Head Man, Croc Brother, and Spider Boy who had just entered the room.
They stood there, stunned, watching the sphere of light merge into Su Qi's body!
All three actually kneeled down, prostrating themselves excitedly, "Is this a Miracle!"
"....."
Su Qi fell somewhat silent too, miracle? I'm just absorbing a Skill.
But after thinking for a moment, he spoke slowly,
"It seems that you've seen it too, well then..." he paused, his tone mysteriously ethereal, "Actually, I'm not from this world. I hail from a secretive organization... The Hustlers."
Their pupils constricted, murmuring, "The Hustlers..."
Su Qi, without a flushed face or skipping heart, said, "It is a mysterious power that exists across countless worlds, an organization of Order that stands for... well, fairness and justice."
He looked at his title that wasn't showing, "And I, am the Sect Hierarch!"
The others widened their eyes, shaking, kneeling with even more vigor, "Can we join too!"
Su Qi shook his head:
"No, you're not qualified yet..."
A few people showed extremely disappointed expressions.
"Then how can we get the qualifications to enter...."
"This... At least you must reach a certain level first."
I still need to make up this part of the content.
Before he could finish, Snake Head Man suddenly clenched his fist tightly and looked up:
"I understand now!"
Su Qi was shocked.
What do you understand?!
"To become part of The Hustlers, you'd at least have to be a notable figure, right?"
"That's possible," Su Qi snapped his fingers.
Snake Head Man looked at Su Qi with admiration and said firmly, "I'll strive towards this goal!"
"...."
Su Qi remained silent and then slowly spoke, "It's up to your determination from now on."
"Yes!"
After the few excitedly left, Su Qi silently opened the panel.
[Name: Rubik's Cube]
[Type: Skill]
[Quality: Perfect]
[Function: Once activated, it can drag any enemy into the Magic Cube Domain. Others cannot enter or attack, the domain lasts for five minutes, and it can't be used consecutively on the same person (Note: The domain blocks external attacks and will break open once it exceeds its limit value)]
[Consumption: 500 Physical Strength Values]
[Note: True men start a duel with a 1v1!]
Su Qi furrowed his brows, "It seems pretty powerful, but also kind of average."
The power lies in... being able to specify who to drag in, but the averageness lies in... still having to deal with them myself.
"Let's keep it for now."
Su Qi closed the panel, his gaze turning to the outside.
At this moment, twilight had already faded away, and the last few rays of light were swallowed by the night.
His eyes emitted a faint red glow; the Night Demon Gene had returned.
"It's time to gather for the group fight."
Su Qi pushed open the door and saw that everyone in the hall had already hung up the Scorpion Supervisor. It was in a pitiful state... There was scarcely a piece of flesh on its body that was intact, weak and powerless, like a defeated wild dog, but it still had a lucid consciousness.
And Su Qi approached.
Everyone quickly made way for him.
The Scorpion Supervisor struggled to lift its eyes and stare at Su Qi, its limbs impaled by spikes, its tail also skewered to the floor by several iron hooks as thick as arms, unable to move, bleeding incessantly.
Su Qi said,
"Look... A sting shot out too sharply will one day spin back and pierce oneself."
"Hehehe..."
The Scorpion Supervisor actually laughed, his voice hoarse, "Indeed, but I did not expect that you fools would unite one day."
"This... only shows your lack of imagination."
It stared at Su Qi with a strange smile, "Do you think you can escape?"
"I can only say... it's useless; in the end, you'll all fall into despair."
Su Qi didn't expect this guy to be surprisingly tough, even while being torturously retaliated against by the crowd, his mouth was still incredibly defiant.
At that moment.
Someone suddenly noticed the Scorpion Supervisor's tail moving, managing to break free of the thick iron and starting to whip around.
They cried out in alarm, "Be careful!"
Su Qi held the [Return Spring] but did not activate it.
Because at the next moment.
"Thud!"
The Scorpion Supervisor actually stabbed its own heart ferociously with the iron stinger on its tail.
Its grim and sharp voice rose in everyone's ears.
"You have no idea of the secret of this orphanage, nor do you know what we are truly preparing for!"
"The real Hell is about to emerge, and I will sacrifice everything for the True God!"
"And none of you... will escape!"
Its voice, full of hate and coldness, made everyone shiver.
Su Qi looked at its gradually drooping head, now devoid of the signs of life.
He sighed:
"...It seems, old acquaintances are truly going to reunite now."
