Chapter 170: Chapter 168: The Extra Option

In the end, I still couldn’t escape the clutches of the ’Mother of Beauty and Fertility.’

Yang Qizhou shivered, deeply feeling the malice of the [Deceit World]. He still remembered that at the very beginning of the game, he obtained the [Dream Realm Mother Goddess Flower Seed]. However, the thought of becoming a "male mommy" was simply unbearable, so he ultimately chose to let the ’Dream Hermit King’ bear this inexplicable pain in his place.

Unexpectedly, after a few days of twists and turns in the plot, the game character still ended up consuming the [Dream Realm Mother Goddess Flower Seed].

"There’s no way I’m becoming a male mommy!"

"Dark Crow of Profane Fortune, save me..."

Yang Qizhou didn’t hesitate to plan on utilizing the [True Official Cheat], relying on Restarting Destiny Line to escape this abhorrent misfortune.

Of course,

Despite his heart racing in panic, Yang Qizhou hadn’t forgotten his free rides at the ’Destiny Store.’ After all, it didn’t cost any money, and he could even turn around and sell things off—it really was a zero-capital trade.

"What should I freeload this time?"

Yang Qizhou opened the Destiny Exchange and saw the 300 units of [Destiny Fire Bottle] he had listed earlier. Only 47 units had sold so far. Although the sales weren’t bad, they had significantly slowed compared to the previous rates.

Current total Old Sacrifice: 33,600.

"Let’s list another 100 units of Destiny Fire Bottle; 353 units should last for a while."

"As for the remaining 23,600 Old Sacrifice, let’s pull out 10,000 to purchase the [Book of Eras Fragments], and the rest will be divided among buying [False Road Marker], [Local Resident Interaction], and [Destiny Chain]. Mark everything at a 20% discount and list them on the ’Destiny Exchange.’"

"Come to think of it, the way I’m doing this kind of steals all the ’Destiny Store’s’ business. Am I being a bit unscrupulous?"

"Making money’s nothing to be ashamed of."

"Forget it."

With that, Yang Qizhou got to work. He first spent 10,000 Old Sacrifice to purchase 100 units of [Destiny Fire Bottle], listing all these items on the ’Destiny Exchange.’ Next, he spent another 10,000 Old Sacrifice on 5 units of [Book of Eras Fragments], leaving the remaining 13,600 Old Sacrifice to purchase 100 units of False Road Marker, 10 units of [Local Resident Interaction], and 3 units of [Destiny Chain]. Everything except the [Book of Eras Fragments] was listed at a 20% discount on the ’Destiny Exchange.’

Afterward, Yang Qizhou began reviewing the [Book of Eras Fragments].

They included... the Secret Chapter, Chapter of Filth, Chapter of Light, Chapter of Old Days, and Chapter of the Dead River.

"Well, what luck! I only got one duplicate Chapter... what a joke! I just had two [Book of Eras Fragments] earlier, meaning there was only a 10% chance to get a duplicate. And yet here it is! Truly deserving of the authority of ’Miracle.’ Such impeccable luck."

Yang Qizhou gritted his teeth.

Though he was genuinely intrigued by the contents of these Chapters, now was clearly not the time. The game character had apparently been caught by the Unknown Evil God resembling a ’Mother Tree’ and was on the verge of becoming a male mommy—if he didn’t resolve this soon, he wouldn’t have a moment’s peace!

"Dark Crow of Profane Fortune, charge forward for me."

...

...

"So it’s truly the [Dream Realm Mother Goddess Flower Seed]? Damn it, I still couldn’t escape."

"As ’Mother Tree,’ appearing in her white-clad woman form, spoke those words, you couldn’t keep yourself from cursing. Watching your stomach swell larger and larger, you’re terribly aware there isn’t much time left before you actually give birth. You dare not delay further, and immediately activate the powers of the ’Dark Crow.’"

"The eerie cawing of a crow echoes through your mind as the world before you rewinds. Your vision distorts, blurs, and fractures violently."

"When you open your eyes again, you find yourself back at the moment of choice."

"Now, you’re surrounded by a strange softness, embraced by the ’Mother Tree’ in her guise as a white-clad woman. She gently pats your shoulder, soothing your fear as she murmurs, ’Don’t be afraid. Don’t be afraid. I’m here for you.’"

"Knowing the experiences you had in the previous destiny line, you’re painfully aware of how terrifying this seemingly idealized ’white-clad woman,’ embodying all male fantasies, really is. If she continues holding you, you might very well go through another male mommy episode."

"Having been deceived by an unknown evil entity, experiencing pregnancy firsthand, and almost becoming a ’male mommy,’ the explorer once again faces a fork in the road of fate."

"So will you indulge in the feeling of being a male mommy, choosing to yield to the ’Mother Tree’s’ scheme and give this terrifying unknown entity a child?"

"Or should you kill her immediately, then take your own life—preserving this fleeting beauty eternally within yourself through death?"

"Or perhaps &%￥##%..."

"Make your choice."

...

...

With a decision already settled in his heart, Yang Qizhou instinctively leaned toward choosing ’two.’

But then, he hesitated.

A look of confusion and disbelief crossed his face.

"Wait a minute, weren’t there only two options earlier? Why is there suddenly a third one now? And it’s all garbled text?"

Having spent some time exploring the [Deceit World], Yang Qizhou had never encountered anything like this before. Such anomalies always hinted at deeper mysteries—the appearance of this garbled option couldn’t be for no reason; there must be a profound cause behind it.

Absentmindedly grabbing a dwindling snack scavenged for free from ’Little Bean,’ Yang Qizhou fell into contemplation.

"Why didn’t the third option appear during the first choice? Okay, let’s set that aside for now. But why is this third option garbled text?"

"In eldritch-themed game worlds, ’garbled text’ often results when the game character’s ’san’ value plummets, their mental condition deteriorates, and their capacity for normal reasoning breaks down,"

"Wait—" ƒгeewёbnovel.com

Yang Qizhou suddenly stumbled upon a thought and immediately scrolled back through the text, quickly finding the content he was searching for.

"According to the earlier texts, the game character has already glimpsed the real form of the ’Mother Tree.’ But in the blink of an eye, that twisted, bizarre, indescribably malevolent entity vanished, replaced by a ’white-clad woman,’ who then embraced and soothed the game character."

"Using reverse logic..."

"Is the game character’s mental state truly normal right now?"

"Is everything he sees around him really the real world?"

"And is this seemingly life-saving second option truly salvation?"

Confronted with a two-choice scenario, where one option had already been exhausted, there was seemingly no need for too much deliberation. Yet the appearance of this garbled ’third option’ forced Yang Qizhou to evaluate carefully.

Before long, he gritted his teeth.

"The authority of ’Miracle’ is still at work—my luck has never failed me. If it’s a two-out-of-three scenario, why not just take a gamble?"

"Garbled text or not, I choose ’three.’"

...

...

"Suddenly, you feel a piercing headache, as though an iron rod is stirring your brain—a sharp, sharp, sharp, sharp, sharp pain."

"The scenery before your eyes glimmers as if the game cartridge is glitching—snow-like static flickering one moment, a mad fast-forward montage the next."

"Your head swirls into chaos; your thoughts stiffen. With all your might, you manage to open your eyes just a sliver, and in the void-like darkness surrounding you—a realm so unspeakably vast and hollow—countless pale hands extend to embrace, console, and drag you deeper and deeper downward, into the Abyss."

"Am I dreaming?"

"None of what just happened was real."

"A chilling realization roils in your heart as you summon the powers of the ’Star Spirit,’ channeling all your authority, pouring every ounce of strength into breaking free from your current predicament."

"Yet more and more hands emerge—phantoms from the inky void, hidden in the abyssal depths of the world’s oceans—gripping you tighter, pulling you deeper, dragging you downward, downward, further downward, endlessly downward."

"Damn it, is the mighty ’Lord of Blasphemy’ really about to be captured by this sinister entity and forced to bear children for Her?"

"This is utterly humiliating."

"Just when all hope seems lost... a radiant, brilliant golden light bursts out of your body—a brightness that rivals the simultaneous ignition of countless stars, outshining even helium flashes."

"What’s happening now?"

"Before you can remain confounded for long, a ’golden skeleton’ emerges from the void. It’s the ’Bone of the Sun,’ scavenged from the fallen remains of the Golden Divine Envoy."

"In a haze, your eyes snap open, glimpsing the real world again."

...

...

"Holy crap, what the actual hell—finally escaped."

Yang Qizhou was drenched in sweat, his nerves taut.

It wasn’t any surprise he’d react this way. The situation he faced was ominously bizarre, and the game character’s predicament astronomically perilous—misstep once, and he’d be dragged back by the ’Mother Tree’ to bear children.

Thankfully, according to the text, the ’game character’ seemed to have successfully gotten out unscathed.

"But what’s up with that third option?" Yang Qizhou pondered.

This wasn’t the first time he’d seen a third choice surface after utilizing the ’Dark Crow’ to rewind. In earlier occurrences, the text provided explicit hints: the third option emerged because he retained experiences from the prior destiny line.

But this time was different,

After the rewind, the sudden appearance of a third option was unnervingly strange. This option showed up out of nowhere, without explanation, and it was garbled text at that.

"If it wasn’t due to an error in the [Deceit World] system, then there must be factors I’m unaware of at play."

"These are the only two possibilities."

Yang Qizhou reflected, but since this was his first time encountering such a phenomenon, the lack of evidence made effective theorizing impossible.

Then Yang Qizhou shifted his attention to another matter...

"Why did the ’Bone of the Sun’ suddenly activate its power to assist the game character in escaping the ’Mother Tree’s’ nightmare?"
