As expected, he died without surprise.
Yang Qizhou felt no waves in his heart, and he even found it a bit funny. In this deceitful worldview, if players don't die several times a day, it deserves a one-star rating as a trashy game.
Yang Qizhou checked the item he just obtained.
Dream Realm Mother Goddess Flower Seed (Epic): A seed from the Dream Realm, born from the authority of the 'Mother of Beauty and Fertility,' tainted with the breath of the 'Dream Realm Master.' It was supposed to exist only in dreams, but it has appeared in the real world for some reason. Effect: It allows you to become pregnant and give birth to a child with dream powers. Note: It applies to both genders.
???
So men can use it too, becoming the legendary dad-mom?
Yang Qizhou almost threw his phone away. If this were an ordinary game, he would find this item quite grotesque, amusingly playing both dad and mom with no burden, and would choose to use it. But [Deceit World] is not an ordinary game; the character's experiences reflect back on the player.
Thinking about his belly rapidly expanding, joyfully becoming both dad and mom in ten months, Yang Qizhou got goosebumps.
He tried to take out the 'Dream Realm Mother Goddess Flower Seed.' As soon as the thought arose, a seed about the size of a ping pong ball appeared in his palm, purple with spiral dark patterns.
"Just as expected, the benefits players gain in the game can be manifested in reality."
Putting the dangerous item that can make men moms back to the character, Yang Qizhou continued playing the game.
Pale text scrolled.
"Even a stone could smash to death the explorer, your soul has once again come before the gloomy and turbulent River of Death, countless spirits rest eternally at the river bottom, and you are about to become one of them."
"The power of fate remains, the beacon of blessing still flickers, you could rewrite the outcome of death."
"The 'Dark Crow of Profane Fortune' is cawing, its eerie revelation echoes in your mind, the power to desecrate fate can take you back to the moment before you picked up the 'Dream Realm Mother Goddess Flower Seed.'"
"So, will the explorer smashed to death by a stone choose to rewrite the end of death and be reborn on the ancient earth, or use the power of the 'Dark Crow of Profane Fortune' and make a different choice."
"Of course, you could also choose to sink into the River of Death."
As expected, the soul arrived at the River of Death, the resurrection prompt, the Dark Crow of Profane Fortune takes effect, but why emphasize 'the explorer smashed to death by a stone,' damn it.
Yang Qizhou gritted his teeth with hatred, feeling there was a sense of disdain for the player hidden within the lines of the narrative.
After calming down for a while, Yang Qizhou seriously analyzed.
"Near the Holy Image of the Moonlight Ancient God, there should be more than just the 'Dream Realm Mother Goddess Flower Seed,' there are other side storylines too, but with the collapse of the Holy Image, the remaining storylines most likely can't exist."
"However..."
"I have the 'Dark Crow of Profane Fortune,' which not only resets the timeline but also gets previous benefits for free."
"It's fun to exploit the system."
"So, of course, I should choose double the happiness."
Yang Qizhou opted for the 'Dark Crow of Profane Fortune's' effect, with uses remaining today: 3.
"The despicable explorer who only knows how to use cheating tools, you activated the power of the 'Dark Crow of Profane Fortune' and returned to the moment before you picked up the 'Dream Realm Mother Goddess Flower Seed,'"
"You've found the 'Dream Realm Mother Goddess Flower Seed' once again, do you want to pick it up?"
"Yes/No."
Who wants to be a dad-mom, Yang Qizhou was already disdainful of the 'Dream Realm Mother Goddess Flower Seed' in his hand, let alone doing it again. Rather than picking up this thing that's epically graded but useless, he'd continue searching for other possibilities.
"You restrained the explorer's nature to reach out, giving up on picking up the 'Dream Realm Mother Goddess Flower Seed' and explored the area around the Holy Image of the Moonlight Ancient God again."
"You found nothing, cursing what a miser the Moonlight Ancient God is."
"You turned your attention to the Holy Image of the Moonlight Ancient God."
"You thought the inscribed base might be worth a lot, and planned to knock it off. You made a mistake during the operation, breaking the slab, thinking this would greatly devalue the slab, you were furious."
"Just when you were feeling dejected, you saw a peculiar bronze ring embedded in the base, with a faint, hazy halo flowing around it."
"You discovered 'Kan Rui's Wizard Ring,' would you like to pick it up?"
"Yes/No."
Sure enough, besides the 'Dream Realm Mother Goddess Flower Seed,' there were other gains near the Holy Image of the Moonlight Ancient God.
Yang Qizhou happily chose to pick it up.
"You picked up 'Kan Rui's Wizard Ring,' the ancient Blessing Power has dissipated, the 'Dream Realm Mother Goddess Flower Seed' begins to bloom, and the Holy Image of the Moonlight Ancient God is pregnant."
"The Holy Image of the Moonlight Ancient God bore the Dream Realm's Child."
"You were taken into a dream by the Dream Realm's Child and slaughtered."
"You died."
Goodness, truly goodness.
Yang Qizhou thought being a dad-mom was already absurd enough, but he didn't expect such a sensational operation, making a stone pregnant, the Deceit World is terrifying.
Kan Rui's Wizard Ring (Ordinary): Kan Rui was a powerful wizard active in the previous epoch but perished in the catastrophe during the eras' transition. The originally powerful energy of the ring has dissipated over endless ages. Perhaps you could find a way to restore it. Effect: Grants you night vision, strengthens your body when you bathe in moonlight.
Trash item, just ordinary, far inferior to the 'Dream Realm Mother Goddess Flower Seed.'
The restored attributes can hold some anticipation.
Yang Qizhou had a thought, and a bronze ring soon appeared in his hand. Unfortunately, it's not nighttime, nor is there moonlight to test its effect.
"The ring possesses the power of moonlight, could it be that this wizard Kan Rui is the Moonlight Ancient God?"
"That's impossible, Kan Rui the wizard fell in the disaster of the previous epoch's transition, while the Moonlight Ancient God is the deity who blessed the Forest Hundred Clans through the epoch catastrophe."
"Of course, there's another possibility."
"Wizard Kan Rui was killed by the Moonlight Ancient God."
Yang Qizhou felt this was filled with a mist of suspense, but he didn't care too much. The vast worldview of the ancient earth awaits his exploration, the Ancient Gods and many indescribable beings haven't been uncovered, the secret of why looking at the sun results in death is unknown. There's no need to focus too much on the grudge between Kan Rui and the Moonlight Ancient God.
When it's time to know, it will naturally become clear.
The game continues.
"You skillfully returned to the River of Death, about to sink to the riverbed for eternal rest."
"The power of fate remains magnificent, the flame of blessing has yet to scatter, you must choose whether to rewrite the end of death and return to the real world, or choose to sink into the River of Death."
"The 'Dark Crow of Profane Fortune' is cawing, it reveals to you that you still have one chance to desecrate fate, allowing you to return to the moment before picking up 'Kan Rui's Wizard Ring.'"
"So, what will the lousy and greedy explorer who uses cheats do?"
