Chapter 400: Chapter 0400: Betrayal (Three more votes for monthly ticket)
“Though the origins and resurrection mechanism of the players are understood, there’s still one major question… the source of the entire system!”
Standing in a high place, Su Lu looked at the mythical square with a contemplative expression.
Firstly, the appearance of the players must not be the doing of the world itself. This strong ‘online game’ flavor doesn’t seem like a rule that an unconscious world could evolve.
Su Lu even saw a design style in this system that was gradually being filled in from a rudimentary base.
“So, it seems… the biggest culprit is the so-called ‘Lord God System’?”
This was just the title given by the players, it could be a marvel, a strange creature, or even a divine being!
“The possibility of it being a divine being is extremely small, we can basically rule that out… They wouldn’t go through such trouble to purify the darker aspects of the world…”
Yes, this system gave Su Lu a feeling of being troublesome!
“A strange creature? Connecting humans with the Inner World? The probability is also not great… the biggest possibility is still a marvel or device – an auxiliary one.”
If it was a powerful marvel, it would probably have taken control and completely purified the Inner World already.
“Interesting… An ant holding a divine artifact?”
After ruling out many options, the biggest possibility was laid out before Su Lu, making his eyes brighter. To be fair, perhaps due to reading too many novels, his imagination in this regard was always great: “Indeed… only a creature itself weak, yet possessing an incredible divine artifact, would do such a contradictory act…”
The so-called contradiction was the grand power to pull people into the Lord God game, yet also being apprehensive and extremely cautious about the players.
A common person, who made use of an external tool, had the power to pull people into the Lord God game and yet was not strong in itself, could explain it all.
“That object or device isn’t a product of technology, but of the mysterious side… that is to say… the other party used a mysterious power to achieve technology comparable to virtual reality.”
“Judging by this ‘internet game mode’, he is a native of the Guni star, or a teenager native. He likes to play games in his spare time, at least he has been in contact with them…”
“After he obtained that marvel, perhaps he knew the truth of the world, and had to stand up to resist? But he is also selfish, very insecure, and did not report to the world government, but chose to do it all on his own?”
“The other party hides very well, but his character is somewhat timid, and yet he yearns for strength… The so-called ‘high score leaderboard’ or ‘grandmaster leaderboard’ is somewhat suspicious.”
Su Lu noticed a long time ago, these players might have ‘occupations’, but they cannot be considered as true occupational persons.
The characters they controlled were just ‘game characters’ pinched out by the system, and the various abilities they possessed were ‘plug-ins’ given by the system.
Since they were additional ‘plug-ins’, they could naturally be taken back at any time.
In short, the one in control of the system, strictly controlled all the players’ ‘power of life and death’.
“This means the other party is often insecure, like a child walking in the market with gold… you can’t say this worry is unfounded…”
“Hmm, it’s indeed a great target.”
Su Lu suddenly slapped his forehead: “Wait a minute… what am I thinking? My purpose in coming to this world is to find the clues left by Shewinado, or possible sixth-order inheritance. When did I fall into plotting to steal a child’s toy? Is this moral degeneration? Or the lowering of my bottom line? But no… a suspected divine artifact is not as simple as a child’s toy…”
“Moreover… this might be the guidance that Shewinado gave me. That object originally did not belong to that lucky guy, but to Shewinado…”
“He set the coordinates of this world in the tomb, hoping that someone would come and get that marvel?”
“Anyway… I still have to find an opportunity to go to the Outer World!”
Su Lu had long given up the thought of arriving in the Material Realm through the Lord God System in a justified manner.
This was equivalent to deliberately exposing himself in front of that person behind the scenes.
“Actually… my main body has been exposed long ago, the ‘Destruction Dragon’ posts on the forum outside are spreading wildly, only a blind person wouldn’t see…”
“So… while my avatar is lurking, my main body must also make some moves from time to time… This is not only to cover for me but also to harvest experience.”
Though out of one hundred million players, only about one percent truly possess the strength of an occupational person and give experience upon their death, the victory lies in running constantly. Though it can’t be said to be inexhaustible, it’s absolutely plentiful. At least it can be harvested dozens of times.
At this moment, Su Lu suddenly saw a figure. It was Jun Ren, the first person to discover him and make the final BOSS conjecture.
His eyes lit up, preparing to show off a move.
He was about to sell himself out!
“Brother Jun Ren!”
Thinking of this, Su Lu went up and stopped Jun Ren: “Want to do a bit of business?”
“What business?”
Jun Ren looked at this new friend and said generously.
After all, it’s just a game, he’s not afraid of what the other party will do.
“Actually… I’ve found the location of the ‘Destruction Dragon’! I want to sell it.” Su Lu said mysteriously: “But you know, I’m a newcomer, not familiar with the local powerful and trustworthy guilds, so can you help me introduce…”
“Damn!” Jun Ren was excited: “Bro… you…”
He glanced around and subconsciously lowered his voice: “You’re too amazing… you actually found the location of the Destruction Dragon? So many people chased it back then, it seemed like it flew right out of the atmosphere…”
This Inner World was actually a round land with a flat sky, the players couldn’t touch the firmament at all.
In the end, all they could do was look up and sigh.
“Pay half the deposit first, I can take you to see, and after observing, pay the other half, how does that sound?”
Su Lu smiled and suggested.
If he dared to say this, he must be very confident.
Jun Ren patted his chest: “No problem, leave it to me! I want to see that BOSS again… how many Neil do you want?”
Neil is the currency unit in the real world.
Because this Lord God game doesn’t have an official exchange or banking system, many players prefer to trade offline.
“No… I just want crystal cores, one hundred of the first and second order ones, and I also need one of the third order.”
Su Lu replied.
“This price… is enough for you to take office and upgrade your profession, and also learn several skills.”
Jun Ren looked at him enviously: “Brother, you’ll be off the newbie list soon.”
He didn’t have any intention of pressuring the other party to confess.
Because it’s useless!
Once confronted with this kind of situation, Su Lu could simply commit suicide. Players can be resurrected, and who would recognize anyone after they log off?
Therefore, he better get ready to trade honestly, earning a fee would be nice.
