Chapter 196: Chapter 194: 85,000 Old Sacrifices

In the rental apartment.

After placing ’Luo Fusheng’ in the desolate wilderness, Yang Qizhou did not immediately summon back the ’Gontine Hound’. Instead, he used its perspective to observe everything around him. When he saw ’Zhou Xu’ appear and successfully take away this ’fugitive’, a smile flashed across the corner of his lips.

"Everything that needed to be done has been done. If even this doesn’t allow the ’Deceit Bureau’ to counter the ’Hermit Association’s conspiracy, then it’s safe to say they’re beyond saving."

Yang Qizhou stopped dwelling on it and shifted his focus to another matter.

There were actually other [Deceit World] players in the community.

The [Correct Guidance] from Luo Fusheng suggested a revelation that most likely pointed to him.

This piqued Yang Qizhou’s interest. Although with his current combat capability, he did not fear any other [Deceit World] player, having another peer hidden nearby was undeniably a potential threat. It was better to figure out the other person’s identity.

"Every night at midnight, the three free revival opportunities refresh. Unless it’s one of those top-tier players who have a sufficient number of [Destiny Fire Bottles] and don’t care about the three revival chances, most players will log into the game after midnight to refresh their storyline."

"Which means..."

"If I screen residents still playing with their phones around 11:50 p.m., there’s a high chance of identifying the hidden ’Deceit’ player in this community."

Checking the time, it was still far from midnight. He thought he might as well take this opportunity to push forward some storyline.

Thinking this, Yang Qizhou had already taken out his phone.

The game continued.

"You have wielded the authority of ’Gathering Fortune’ to harvest the ’Polluted Gatekeeper’s good luck."

"Thanks to the miraculous power of the ’Dream Hidden World Clothes’, you did not exit the ’Hidden’ state, and the Wizard’s presence remained concealed. Although the ’Polluted Gatekeepers’ sensed something amiss, they couldn’t detect your existence."

"While harvesting good luck, you also used the authority of ’Miracle’.

"Unimaginable good fortune descended upon you."

"You took action once more, leveraging the miraculous power of the ’Dream Hidden World Clothes’ to avoid numerous ’Polluted Gatekeepers’ and infiltrated another private residence. Despite getting tainted by dirt and uncleanness during the process, it did not dampen your enthusiasm."

"You began scavenging,"

"You obtained 5,417 Old Sacrifices."

"What incredible luck. Just this one haul is almost as much as the previous four or five combined."

"You found this method reliable and became even more reckless in wielding the authority of ’Gathering Fortune’, harvesting the ’Polluted Gatekeepers’ good luck, and then utilizing the authority of ’Miracle’ to maximize your own fortune."

"You scavenged a residential area and obtained 4,301 Old Sacrifices."

"You scavenged a Holy Hall and found 6,120 Old Sacrifices in a Prayer Box."

"Using the effect of the ’Dragon Tooth of Greed’, you successfully located the residence of one of the Seven Archons, the ’Truth Knower’, but unfortunately, there was a barrier blocking you from entering."

"Though disappointed, you had no choice but to seek out your next target."

"Then you scavenged once again."

"You obtained 5,109 Old Sacrifices."

"You obtained 2,194 Old Sacrifices."

"You..."

What an exhilarating spree.

Yang Qizhou opened his inventory. The current total of Old Sacrifices: 85,021.

This amount not only included the Old Sacrifices the game character scavenged from ’Gate City’, but also proceeds from selling various items like [Destiny Fire Bottles] and [False Road Markers] at the ’Destiny Exchange’. Even so, the amount was truly outrageous.

Just 5,000 more Old Sacrifices would suffice to help the game character digest 15% of the Winning God Potion and ascend to the ’Angel’ rank.

The game continued.

"With tens of thousands of Old Sacrifices earned, you’re feeling quite pleased."

"You decided to push harder, aiming to empty all the wealth from ’Gate City’ today."

"But at this moment, you felt a violent tremor underfoot in ’Gate City’. The sky turned a hazy yellow, with streams of dirt and uncleanness faintly visible. All the buildings began twisting and fading, as if shifting from reality to a phase state."

"What is happening?"

"Alarm surged in your heart."

"At that moment, Kandarl’s voice transmission resonated, his tone filled with urgency... ’Wizard, sir, quickly, leave ’Gate City’ at once. The temporal sequence has deviated from its proper alignment. This city is slipping from reality into the ’Phase Realm’. If we don’t exit soon, once the city fully detaches from the real world, we’ll both be trapped in here.’"

"You were taken aback, surprised that Kandarl was still alive. However, this was clearly not the time to dwell on such matters."

"You activated the ’Dream Hidden World Clothes’ effect,"

"You had no intention of falling into the ’Phase Realm’ along with ’Gate City’. At top speed, you rushed to the exit, traversing the ’Wisdom Corridor’. Just before ’Gate City’ disappeared completely, you narrowly escaped."

"Kandarl was nearby, and since you still had the ’Dream Hidden World Clothes’ activated, he did not notice your presence. Seeing ’Gate City’ rapidly dissolve from reality into the phase, he assumed you were trapped inside, showing a deeply despondent expression."

"Playing with a mischievous thought, you revealed yourself."

"As expected, Kandarl, immersed in sorrow, was shocked by your sudden appearance. Shouting ’ghost!’, he nearly cast a spell on you. Only after confirming you were alive did he relax."

"You started discussing the events in ’Gate City’..."

"Recalling how Kandarl had created a major distraction to lure away the ’Polluted Gatekeepers’ near the Holy Image of the ’Wisdom God’, risking his life to cause an uproar, you couldn’t help but be curious about how he managed to survive amidst the overwhelming tide of terrifying abominations."

"Unable to resist, you asked."

"Kandarl, with a lingering look of terror, explained. It turned out he had utilized the mystical knowledge domain extended by the ’Wisdom’ symbol, creating projections and crafting numerous fake versions of himself to confuse the ’Polluted Gatekeepers’ visions. Even with this, he almost got consumed by the monstrous tide."

"You exchanged a few more casual remarks."

"Kandarl invited you to return with him to the ’Guardian King City’. Of course, not the one brimming with ominous horrors, but the one still intact."

"You declined the offer."

"Your reasoning was straightforward: you were never too enthusiastic about solving the mystery of the ’Wisdom God’s’ disappearance. The main reason you entered the gates in the first place was to acquire materials for deactivating the ’Hidden God’s Clothes’. Now that you’d obtained everything you needed, the rest would be left to fate."

"Besides, you didn’t fully trust the Mirror Spirit of the ’Mirror of Wisdom’, which was another critical factor."

"However, you didn’t want to simply let go of Kandarl, a free helper. Switching to full persuasion mode, you attempted to convince him to leave the ’Polluted Mountain Edge’ and explore the outside world with you. But Kandarl, the determined Miracle Warrior, remained steadfast in his mission to reclaim the lost ’Guardian King City’."

"You were about to part ways,"

"When suddenly, a thought struck you. You turned to Kandarl and said... ’Be wary of White.’"

"’Be wary of White? What do you mean?’ Kandarl asked, utterly confused."

"Of course, you didn’t mention that in a previous destiny line, you had entered the lost ’Guardian King City’ and encountered ’White’, one of the three Miracle Warriors. There, you discovered she had never escaped, and that the ’White’ seen now might present a serious issue."

"You simply emphasized firmly... ’Kandarl, trust the great Wizard. If I tell you to be cautious of her, you must be cautious.’

"Though bewildered, Kandarl took your words to heart, believing that the Wizard wouldn’t deceive him."

"Soon after, the two of you parted ways."

"You activated the ’Dream Hidden World Clothes’, found a secluded spot, and opened the ’Time-Space Gate’ function."

"You returned to the Truth Hall."

...

...

Reading over the text, Yang Qizhou stretched deeply, thinking that this exploration of the ’Polluted Mountain Edge’ was finally over. Overall, the rewards were decent, though the process felt a little uneventful.

There was still some time before midnight; the matter of identifying the other player in the community could wait.

Yang Qizhou refocused on the [Deceit World] game,

After all, with one more chance from the Dark Crow of Profane Fortune, even if he made a wrong choice, he had no reason to fear. At worst, he could restart the destiny line.

"By the way, I wonder how the ’Deceit Bureau’ reacted after receiving ’Luo Fusheng’."

...

...

Meanwhile, at the Deceit Bureau.

In a white room, ’Luo Fusheng’ lay on a bed, his brow tightly furrowed as if gripped by a terrifying nightmare. Surrounding him were about a dozen people, all ’Captain’-level members of the Bureau. Some had even crossed into the extraordinary realm, their blood and flesh transformed. Zhou Xu was among them.

"The mystical force imposed on ’Luo Fusheng’ holds a rank no lower than Super Epic Level."

"I tried using the ’Moment of Awakening’ earlier, but it had no effect."

"I used dream-entering techniques and discovered that ’Luo Fusheng’ is trapped in an extremely terrifying nightmare, enduring near-eternal torment. I almost got sucked into it myself."

"Old Zhou, who did this? Someone capable of surpassing this level certainly isn’t an ordinary individual."

Everyone chimed in, their tones filled with amazement and seriousness, finally focusing their gazes on ’Zhou Xu’.

Zhou Xu did not hide the truth, replying in a solemn tone: "Of course, it wasn’t an ordinary person. He is currently the only S-class player in the ’Deceit Bureau’ unrecorded in the system."

"He is... the lamp holder."
