Chapter 119: Chapter 117: Fate is Fooling Around
Yang Qizhou genuinely hadn’t expected that in the next Chapter of this story, other [Deceit World] players would make an appearance.
It was his first time encountering something like this...
But considering they managed to become a servant of the ’Nameless,’ it was safe to assume the other player’s game progress wasn’t any less advanced than the ’Hidden Cultivator’s,’ and there was a high probability they had already mastered Extraordinary Power, ranking among the top-tier players.
"That being said,"
"In the ’secret gathering,’ they were obviously just a small fry, without even a chance to speak—a fringe character at best."
"Heheheheh, if they knew that the soon-to-arrive ’Mr. Black Hat’ was a player in disguise and already capable of joking and negotiating privately with their master, handling hidden deals, I wonder how they’d feel."
"Probably wouldn’t take it too well, huh."
"Speaking of which, should I use [Fellow Villager Chat] to interact with this player?"
Yang Qizhou was quite tempted. Being able to flex gleefully in front of another player was a rare opportunity. The other’s shock when his Game Character’s identity was eventually revealed would be unimaginable.
Still, after a moment of hesitation, Yang Qizhou abandoned the idea,
for a very simple reason,
there was no benefit to it.
Using ’Fellow Villager Chat’ would let him flaunt, sure—but aside from wasting a Special Item worth 200 Old Sacrifice, there’d be no gain,
at least not from the current storyline perspective.
Flexing was undeniably satisfying, but doing so at the expense of a Special Item with no clear reward? No, thank you.
"Now then, how should I spend my 2800 Old Sacrifice?"
With that, Yang Qizhou stared intently at the ’Destiny Store’ item list, his heart filled with the joy of freeloading.
He hadn’t forgotten his plan—to exploit the ’Destiny Store’ before deploying the ’Dark Crow of Profane Fortune’ to rewind time, swiping Special Items for free. And now, the time had come.
After some careful selection, Yang Qizhou quickly finalized his purchases. The list was as follows...
Destiny Fire Bottle x15.
False Road Marker x4.
Fellow Villager Chat x2.
Destiny Chain x1.
Exactly 2800 Old Sacrifice, completely spent.
Next came the highly anticipated moment: save and reload. Settling comfortably on the sofa, Yang Qizhou struck a determined pose and shouted with fervor, "Dark Crow of Profane Fortune, bring it on!"
...
...
"The power of the ’Dark Crow of Profane Fortune’ activates,"
"The scene before your eyes rapidly blurs, twists, and shatters. When you open your eyes again, you’ve returned to the last point in time you selected."
"You find yourself in the Truth Hall once more, where ’Little Seventeen’ waves enthusiastically, cheering you on and saying... The future Wizard, I believe in your eventual success."
"You ignore the impressively lifelike mannequin and instead start reviewing the events of the last destiny thread."
"It takes you five minutes to untangle the interpersonal web of the ’Wisdom Divine Envoy’ Salma from the gathering."
"It takes another three minutes to organize the rest of the information."
"An explorer who always likes freeloading with cheats, smug and self-satisfied, is once again standing at the crossroads of fate."
"So what will you choose this time? To first attempt to stop the ’Wisdom Divine Envoy’ Salma before attending the Nameless’s gathering?"
"Or to head straight there?"
"Please make your decision."
Is there even a question? Obviously, it’s option one. One, one, one, one.
Yang Qizhou executed the choice with the quickest reflexes,
and the text continued to update.
"You’re well aware that the ’Wisdom Divine Envoy’ Salma has already set out. On the last destiny thread, they even reached the gathering location before you. If you delay any longer, then the plan to impersonate ’Mr. Black Hat’ and infiltrate the secret gathering might fall apart."
"As for how to stop ’Wisdom Divine Envoy’ Salma, you’ve already formed a plan,"
"Your mind burns with focus, and the ’Destiny Wizard Mark’ on your palm radiates an extraordinary glow. You lock your aim onto ’Wisdom Divine Envoy’ Salma and deliver a prophecy derived from the level of fate."
"The content of the prophecy is..."
"The reason why this ’secret gathering’ was scheduled earlier than usual is entirely due to a conspiracy. Something terrifying is going to happen, and anyone who attends will perish."
"That should about do it, you muse. But to be on the safe side, you crank up the intensity."
"You add more than a dozen additional fate revelations, causing the sense of impending doom to multiply exponentially with every step ’Wisdom Divine Envoy’ Salma takes toward the gathering."
"Am I being too sinister? You wonder aloud, though a grin spreads wide across your face."
"Getting the better of the ’Wisdom Divine Envoy’ for biting off part of your tongue—of course you remember that grudge clearly. You’ve been planning this for ages: to not only swindle the [Foolish Snake Skin] but also trap ’Wisdom Divine Envoy’ Salma along the way."
"After finishing this, you waste no time and immediately teleport to Asgard through the ’Time-Space Gate.’"
...
...
"Yo, this Game Character is something else, huh? Totally in sync with me. If I didn’t know better, I’d think this character was just me, copied straight out of my brain."
Yang Qizhou’s eyes glinted with surprise.
Stopping the ’Wisdom Divine Envoy’ Salma from attending the secret gathering was the exact problem he’d just been pondering. After considering it thoroughly, using the power of the Wizard Mark’s ’Destiny Revelation’ seemed like the optimal solution.
But [Deceit World] was a text-based game. Although Yang Qizhou was the player, he couldn’t forcefully alter the direction of the narrative. So whether the Game Character would use this method was up to chance.
Turns out, remarkably, the Game Character had the same idea, also using ’Destiny Revelation’ to obstruct Salma.
Having thought this through, Yang Qizhou didn’t immediately refresh the text—he had one more critical thing to confirm. "Old Sacrifice... Old Sacrifice, huh. Sure, I tested it before, but what if this time is different?"
With a mix of anxious anticipation, Yang Qizhou hurriedly opened up the item inventory.
Old Sacrifice count: 2800.
"Nice..."
Yang Qizhou pumped his fist in triumph. Although his prior testing had confirmed Old Sacrifice would reset, considering he’d spent every last bit on Special Items from the ’Destiny Store,’ he couldn’t help but worry the store might have noticed his bug abuse and patched it. If Old Sacrifice hadn’t reset after reloading, his lucrative loophole-hacking scheme would’ve come to an abrupt end.
But now,
resurrection and infinite retrying were no longer a concern. As long as the Dark Crow of Profane Fortune could rewind time, he could endlessly farm Special Items from the ’Destiny Store,’ including [Destiny Fire Bottle].
"Nothing can stop me now..." Yang Qizhou hummed a jaunty tune as he clicked onward.
Soon, the text refreshed.
...
...
"You’ve arrived in ’Asgard,’"
"You’re well aware that this superficially holy and unassailable God’s Fortress has, in reality, been thoroughly infiltrated by the Evil God, turning it into a sieve of conspiracies. Walking the streets openly could easily lead to a scenario where someone kidnaps you to sacrifice your organs to the Evil God."
"You activate the effects of the ’Hidden God’s Clothes,’ entering Hidden State..."
"You don’t immediately head toward the secret gathering’s location. Instead, you follow the key routes, searching for signs of the ’Wisdom Divine Envoy’ Salma to gauge the effectiveness of your Destiny Revelation."
"You quickly find ’Wisdom Divine Envoy’ Salma,"
"You see him standing at the edge of the street, his expression shifting rapidly. His eyes are filled with doubt and hesitation. After painstakingly deciding to take a step forward, he quickly retreats again, as if the road ahead holds an indescribable and ultimate terror."
"You watch as ’Wisdom Divine Envoy’ Salma stands there for a long time before finally gritting his teeth and heading in the opposite direction of the secret gathering."
"You chuckle with sinister delight, ’The Destiny Revelation worked wonders scaring that snitch off,’"
"But you’re not careless. You understand well that Salma, wielding the power of ’Wisdom,’ is astoundingly clever. If Asgard remains unusually quiet for too long, he’ll likely see through your bluff and rush back toward the gathering."
"You must acquire [Foolish Snake Skin] in the meantime..."
"You first find a black hat mask and wide cloak—precisely the disguise ’Wisdom Divine Envoy’ Salma intended to use for the secret gathering."
"You mutter to yourself... Seems like a great chance to screw over ’Wisdom Divine Envoy’ Salma."
"Quickly forming a plan, you grab pen and paper to write a report exposing the details and location of the ’secret gathering.’"
"Stashing the letter in a place no one will find, you mutter... I’m downright despicable, aren’t I."
"With everything in place, you waste no time donning the wide cloak and black hat mask, making your way to the secret gathering."
"On your way there,"
"You encounter an Officer from the Valuer Organization, patrolling Asgard’s streets with a stern and authoritative demeanor."
"You wave at him, but since you’re in Hidden State, there’s no response."
"You snark under your breath, Oh, snitch of the ruling order, the grand performance later better include your participation—I’d hate for you to disappoint me."
"Arriving again at the mysterious and ominous structure,"
"You present your [Nameless Invitation] and, in the guise of ’Mr. Black Hat,’ smoothly enter the main hall."
"The secret gathering hasn’t yet started, but many participants have already arrived. There are those in black spiral masks, others in single-eye masks, and more peculiar disguises."
"Thanks to your prior destiny thread, you have a rough understanding of their identities and their ties to the ’Wisdom Divine Envoy’ Salma."
"Your current thoughts are... You want [Foolish Snake Skin], but you don’t want to part with the [Remains of Teasing Evil]—plus, you want as many extra gains as possible along the way."
"So how to pull this off?"
"A plan quickly forms in your mind. Crimson Wizard Marks flicker faintly at your elbow—it’s the ’Killing Mark.’"
"You mutter under your breath..."
"Looks like things are about to get violent."
