I Am A Notorious Hidden Boss In The Alternate World

After the last system message was transmitted to all the system users, the System went silent. No matter how much the users called, neither did the System respond nor the exchange store open.

The disappearance of the System immediately caused people to explode on social media.

[What is going on? I can no longer open the system exchange store!]

[You too? It is the same for me! No matter how much I call, the System is not responding to me…]

[Could it be that the System was truly attacked by something?]

[No shit, Sherlock! Did you not listen to the warnings before the System went quiet?]

Thousands of threads were posted within seconds and received millions of views and comments that continued to surge by the moment.

The number of attention people pays to online news was no joke. After all, more than 70% of the world's population was bound to the System. Its disappearance came as a great shock to many that relied on it.

[Seeking help urgently!!! My Divine Energy will not stop leaking! What can I do to stop it?!]

[Ahh! Same here too! If anyone knows anything, please respond quickly!]

[I just saw my father combusted into bursts of lights… Boohoo...]

[Divine Energy is dangerous without the System!]

The System was not only an excellent tool for acquiring talents and knowledge, but it also acted as a storage holder of Divine Energy for its user.

Since the System disappeared, the usually-kept-under-control Divine Energy began to run amok. People with large stockpiles of Divine Energy immediately combusted into light works, while the more fortunate ones underwent a forced mutation partially.

As for the remaining 30% population of the world, they had always been skeptical concerning the existence of the System and Federation. They had been part of neutral countries and never became part of the Earth government.

Although they did enjoy some benefits brought by exposure to Divine Energy, they lived too far from the original source in River City to consider binding the System.

According to the information posted online by other system users, the pitiful amount of Divine Energy they were exposed to was not enough for them to exchange for anything.

At this point, they were thankful for their previous choices.

At the same time, another thread was quickly gaining attention with its concerning title.

[Interdimensional creatures are real! My home area is being under attack!]

[It is true! There is an outbreak at the dimensional rift near my home too! These interdimensional creatures are very hostile! The local police can keep the situation under control for now, but I do not know how long they can hold!]

[Ehhh, is that so? What do those interdimensional creatures look like? Are they menacing? Do they look like aliens? Or are they monsters?]

[Hard to say! I have never seen anything like this before! You will know what I mean when you see them! But you better pray that you don't!]

The person found it hard to describe the interdimensional creatures. It was something the world had never seen before.

The interdimensional creatures were like flawed digital beings given form after a failed manifestation.

Perhaps the best way to describe them was like 3D shadows with an endless string of binary numbers running vertically on their jet-black body.

The commenter typed furiously onto his far as he watched a police officer suddenly torn apart and eaten by the interdimensional creatures. Not long after, the interdimensional creatures gained semblances of half-human and half-animals.

[Holy shit! The police officer died! The interdimensional creatures seem to be evolving after eating the police officer!]

[My hats off to you, brave guy. If what you said is true, I would have already legged it!]

[Hahaha... I also want to, but my legs just won't move… please help T_T]

Many dimension rifts opened on Earth, but not all of them spawned interdimensional creatures. Nevertheless, chaos broke out at the ones that do.

When people were fighting and defending themselves from the attacks of the invading interdimensional creatures, the System—or rather a system, made its announcement to the world.

Ding!

[The dawn of a new cosmic age is here, and the universe shall welcome a new chapter in its endless expanse. Welcome to the beginning of the Apocalypse. The Apocalypse Survival System is now online.]

While most of the world was filled with confusion over this news, the police forces and peacekeeping forces fighting near the dimensional rifts were filled with uproar.

[Notification: You have slain Lv.1 interdimensional creature. 10 EXP has been gained.]

[Achievement: You have slain Lv.1 interdimensional creature for the first time. 100 EXP has been awarded.]

[Ding! You have leveled up!]

[You have become a Lv.1 Hunter.]

[Title acquired: Hunter.]

Many system users received such notifications in their minds after getting a successful kill on the interdimensional creatures near the dimensional rifts around the world near them.

Those that had yet to experience it themselves had their doubts when the information first made its way online.

Nevertheless, there was no smoke without fire. Once the truth was known, it sparked a frenzied hunt for interdimensional creatures! Killing interdimensional creatures allowed them to grow stronger!

Having experienced the otherworldly wonders of the last system, they were more accepting of the new system, even if it was an enemy of the Federation for swallowing up the previous system.

A portion of the population did not care if the world was ending. In fact, they welcomed it.

Like a suppressed desire being unleashed, people risked their lives to hunt every interdimensional creature spawned. The path to becoming stronger had never been more clear to them!

These groups of people were commonly found to be teenagers and young adults between the age of 13 to 35.

Their presence near the dimensional rifts made it difficult for the Earth government and became a real headache for peacekeeping forces trying to protect the civilians from the threat.

In short, there was a lot of chaos and casualties.

The world underwent a second wave of rapid changes and frenzy improvements since the visitations of the Federation.

The interdimensional creatures grew stronger with each subsequent wave of attacks, but Earth stood firm in their resistance against the invasion of interdimensional creatures.

After two years of desperate resistance, humans established a stable society of hunters in the apocalyptic age. Help from the Federation never came during this time. The Apocalypse affected every plane and dimension and not just Earth.

No one knew why the Apocalypse was happening, only remembered that it started in the year 2021.

All this time, Albion continued to reside within the belly of the sea monster at the bottom of the Ganymede Ocean, utterly oblivious to the world's upheaval.

He was bored to death without the internet. Without access to anime, manga, and novels, he could only sleep to pass his time.

But even then, that was hard to do with the sea monster squirming and whining furiously in recent days.

That is, until one day, it stopped entirely, following a string of messages in his head.

Ding!

[You have slain Lv.1 Ancient Sea Serpent. 100 EXP has been gained.]

[You have leveled up.]

[Achievement: You have slain an ancient sea serpent for the first time. 100 EXP has been awarded.]

[You have leveled up.]

[You have become a Lv.2 Hunter.]

[Title acquired: Hunter.]

[Unique entity and conditions have been detected. The system is currently recalibrating.]

[System recalibration complete. Goldfinger has been activated.]

A glimmer of life appeared on Albion's eyes and wiped away the drowsiness he had been feeling over the past 2 years. Goldfinger activated? About time it did!

But how did the ancient sea serpent die? Come to think of it… where did the anchor go?
