Chapter 1299: Chapter 341: What If I Exploit a Bug?

"Coming, coming, logging on right now."

Upon receiving her teammate’s call, the white-haired girl reached out to press the switch on the desk, turning off the computer screen.

She then activated "Gale Step" to return to her room, quickly changing into a game suit before slipping into the game pod.

As the lid slowly pressed down, the girl’s smile was submerged in the nutrient liquid.

"Click."

The special cage for bad cats opened at this moment, and the orange cat under Life Throat’s possession slowly walked out.

It came to the center of the room, looking up at the white-haired girl inside the game pod with confusion.

Now, it was certain that this small world was the "Debt World" it had been seeking.

But it still had numerous questions that remained unanswered.

Life Throat scanned the room at this moment, letting its spirit flow outward to weave a spirit barrier covering the room.

It then disengaged from the orange cat, transforming into its true form surrounded by black Evil Wind.

With a light stomp of the bone staff in its hand, black Evil Qi gathered before it, forming an ancient contract table that unfurled like a sheepskin scroll, silently revealing Destiny Balance.

The vortex on the Silver Mist Mask rotated rapidly.

It released the bone staff, letting it float above the contract table.

Life Throat issued a summons then, its voice seeming to layer upon itself, as if thousands of voices were speaking the same words simultaneously.

Instantly, the sheepskin scroll on the contract table moved automatically, revealing dense spells.

Before long, a voice descended:

"Life Throat, state your bargaining needs."

Upon hearing the Great Destiny Master’s (Clan Leader’s) voice echo beside its ears, Life Throat reached out to press the left tray of the balance.

This time, as a "participant," it needed to state its needs and provide an equivalent price.

Its thoughts transformed into a flow of information injected into the balance: I want all the information and secrets of this world.

Instantly, the right tray of the balance lifted.

Crack!

Just as Life Throat was preparing to place its stake on the left tray, a crisp shattering sound arose.

Huh?!

The right tray suddenly dropped to the ground.

The entire balance tilted sharply, unable to find anything comparable to initiate the bargain.

Life Throat’s pupils suddenly contracted.

Under such circumstances, only one possibility existed.

Even with the entire resources of the Destiny Clan, coupled with Destiny Rule as stakes, this equivalent bargain couldn’t be initiated.

In other words, the stakes exceed the limit of the equivalent bargain.

Even against the Reverse Tide Army God, the Destiny Balance could operate normally.

This was still its first encounter with such a situation.

Just as it expected, this world is far from as simple as imagined.

A terrifying secret lurks behind, possibly even surpassing the bargain between the Reverse Tide God and the Great Destiny Master of years past.

"Life Throat, give up."

The Great Destiny Master’s voice echoed in its mind.

Life Throat paused for a moment, as the expression on the Silver Mist Mask shifted continuously.

If it didn’t continue to investigate, it meant the backlash of destiny would persist, with no way of knowing when it would stop.

Its own life might also be extinguished in the backlash of destiny.

Thus, it still wanted to struggle once more.

Clear of its thoughts, it spoke in a deep voice:

"Great Destiny Master, I’ll try a different approach."

Making the statement, it pressed its hand on the left tray again, modifying the injected information: mastery of all the language and text comprehension in this realm.

The right tray of balance then healed, trembling slightly before gently rising, revealing a blur of golden light within.

An equivalent bargain can only be initiated if the stakes and demand it offers are balanced.

Life Throat chose to directly read the value information of this part of the stakes.

The answer it received left it momentarily stunned.

Originally prepared for a big loss.

Unexpectedly, comprehension of this small world’s language and text turned out to be extremely cheap.

Life Throat retrieved a blood-colored Crystal Stone from space items, placing it on the tray, and it was automatically sliced, with the excess returned.

The balance swung lightly before finally reaching stability.

Instantly, the star markings on the beam of the scale lit up one after the other.

"Equivalence achieved, bargain initiated." The Great Destiny Master’s voice echoed in its mind.

Beams of light shot out from the trays on both the left and right sides into the Destiny Wheel, confronting, weaving, integrating.

Within the disorderly energy flow, the scrutiny of destiny descended.

Eventually, the spinning of the wheel gradually slowed, with the two energy flows reaching equilibrium under an irresistible rule.

The right tray of the balance rose, while the left tray sank.

[Bargain failed, your stake has been extracted by destiny.]

Life Throat suddenly felt a suffocating sensation, as the Destiny rules took back the stakes and also drew away a portion of its Life Energy.

As a Destiny Apostle, this was the cost of personally participating in the bargain.

But since this round of bargaining involved low-intensity stakes, it bore no psychological burden and immediately initiated another bargain.

After losing three rounds consecutively, the left tray finally lifted during the fourth equivalent bargain.

Instantly, countless information surged into Life Throat’s Sea of Consciousness like a tide.

The evolution of this world’s text, language structures, even various abbreviations and jargons of the network age, all transformed into comprehensible symbols.

It glanced at the text throughout the room.

The warning label on the side of the game pod, system notifications on the computer screen, even the ingredient list on the snack packaging, all text became vivid.

It could now completely understand all the girl’s previous words, including complaints mixed with game terminology.

In the first scene, the girl’s complaints were likely expressing that a path should be left open for the Evil Spirit Warriors in this area, to fatten them up before the kill.
