Monsters Are Coming-Chapter 1090 - 294: Reality Patch, Game Workshop

Earth, Skywind City.

After the contract of the gamble between Chi Tu and Life Throat was completed, the rules began to take effect.

This is the terrifying aspect of rules.

Even across great distances, rules can break through space directly, decomposing the chips Chi Tu lost in the gamble into rule energy.

This was the first time Monster World interfered with Earth.

At this moment, a barely visible crack suddenly appeared in the sky above Skywind City, and chains of rules shot out like venomous snakes, instantly wrapping around Chi Tu's parents.

Their skin began to turn transparent, and their flesh gradually decomposed into tiny light particles under the erosion of runes.

Just then, Qi Sheng, who was the first to learn of the situation, descended with Emperor's Signal Origin.

The released scarlet energy enveloped Chi Tu's parents' bodies.

Faced with the destiny rule energy, the scarlet energy released by Emperor's Signal Origin exuded supreme suppression like an ancient fierce beast.

The azure energy chains released by the destiny rule twisted instantly in the face of this scarlet torrent, as fragile as spider silk encountering boiling lava.

The rule grid composed of blue spiritual patterns cracked inch by inch, and scarlet mist seeped from each fissure.

Ultimately, the scarlet rule power transformed into thousands of roaring blood dragons, devouring the blue energy with overwhelming force.

Wherever it passed, the blue energy melted away quickly like thin ice scorched by the blazing sun, until it completely vanished.

In the collision of rule strength, the destiny rule could not capture Chi Tu's parents protected by Qi Sheng and Emperor's Signal Origin.

The crisis was thus averted.

Qi Sheng glanced at Chi Tu's parents, who had returned to normal, and his consciousness shifted back to the Primordial Altar in the next instant.

...

On the other side.

Having completed the gamble contract, Life Throat found itself in silence.

In this round of gamble, it had won.

But the problem was that the destiny rule did not provide it with any rule-derived energy.

Its gaze was fixed on the scale tray floating on the right of the contract table, then turned to the dejected expression of Chi Tu.

"Let's play another round," Chi Tu continued to say at this time.

"Game over," Life Throat shook its head, refusing.

The destiny rule's failure to generate derivative energy indicated that it hadn't received the "chips" that were supposed to be collected.

There was only one possibility for this phenomenon.

The opponent's chips were valid before the gamble, but after the gamble, they were protected by a rule power stronger than the destiny rule, such that even the destiny rule couldn't breach the supreme rule's defense, resulting in the gamble's futility.

Continuing to play would place the opponent in an invincible position.

This kind of gamble had lost the meaning of an equivalent match.

"Why?" Chi Tu's expression immediately turned dissatisfied.

Faced with the inquiry, a trace of helplessness appeared on Life Throat's silver mask, and a barely audible sigh reached the ears of the assembled students.

Its pale fingers slightly tightened, the bottom of the bone staff gently tapping the ground.

Dong!

A dull tremor spread out, causing the contract table in front to turn phantom.

The patterns on the table vanished like wiped-away sand drawings, mysterious runes extinguished one by one.

The trays on either side of the scale slowly converged, eventually turning into a wisp of blue smoke dispersing away.

Meanwhile, Life Throat's figure began to blur.

The edges of the shadow robe on its body gradually decomposed into fine silver mist, stepping back, and its form gradually merged into the Evil Wind.

At this moment, a voice gradually fading came from the Evil Wind:

"The rule is broken, the contract is terminated...shameful!"

As the last wisp of silver mist merged into the whistling Evil Wind, only the echo of the bone staff tapping the ground remained, lingering for a long time.

"Can't handle losing and calling others shameless?"

"Look who's talking, it seems your Player Clan holds a rule authority so high that even the destiny rule can't fathom it. Now the Destiny Clan can't collect the payment, only an idiot would keep playing with you. Not slapping you to death on the spot is already giving you face." Ghost Pupil looked at Chi Tu with a disdainful expression.

"What a pity, I was hoping to fleece it to death, almost got rich overnight." Chi Tu shook his head in regret.

"Rich overnight? More like dead overnight." Li Zheng rolled his eyes.

"Since we can't continue the gamble, let's get going, return to the camp early." Long Gen clutched the golden scale he won from the gamble, appearing in a good mood.

"Let's go, head back early for a good sleep." Li Zheng nodded in agreement.

The group then set off again, heading against the howling Evil Wind.

...

On the other side, the Primordial Altar.

Qi Sheng was weaving new update content.

As players explored increasingly vast regions in Monster World, the chances of encountering strong clans were also growing.

These clans generally mastered various powerful rules, and many rule powers traditionally disregarded reason, with their released power capable of instantly reaching Earth.

"Poor Chi Tu" was the first player to encounter such an event.

It can be foreseen that similar cases will become more frequent in the future, and he must patch a fix in advance.

Releasing a new announcement, or even a new setting to fill this loophole, to prevent Monster World's power from impacting Earth.

This is also for the sake of player safety.

As for this time with Chi Tu, the issue lay with his own content not being complete, so no punishment would be considered.

But the sacrificial power expended will be slowly deducted from Chi Tu's subsequent earnings, as a matter of principle, regardless of the amount of sacrificial power.

Even if it's just 1 point of sacrificial power, it must be reclaimed.

This time, a total of 123839 points of sacrificial power were expended, and it will be gradually deducted from Poor Chi Tu's earnings in fields like hunting, consuming Spirit Plant, etc., according to the guidance for precise arrangement, quietly conducted.

Before publishing the new setting announcement, Qi Sheng decided to launch the recently developed new feature as well.
