Alternate Dimension Game: Happiness is all that matters!

Chapter 358: Trading a Secret



"Do we refuse guests here?"

"No, any conscious intelligent being can come here to trade," Wang Hao hesitated over what expression to adopt to greet this unique guest.

He didn't know whether to be as serious and earnest as before, to be calm and friendly, or to simply tease this familiar female beneficiary.

"I will pay the price! Hurry up and trade with me!"

Outside interference emerged again, feeling as if someone were scratching his own palm.

In the end, Wang Hao could only cough and speak in a bland tone, "What are your needs, guest? Whether it be troubles, desires, or anything else, everything can be fulfilled, as long as you pay the appropriate price."

Xiaoyue spoke seriously, "Please help me remove the 'cousin' label and then, I can exchange a real secret."

Wang Hao was stunned, "What secret?"

"If I told you, would it still be a secret? Of course, it's confidential!" Xiaoyue said with a giggly smile.

After hesitating for a moment, Wang Hao, having never encountered such a strange desire, turned his head and looked at the artificial intelligence, Xiaoi.

Xiaoi stood silently, expressionless.

There was an indescribable strange atmosphere brewing in the air.

Wang Hao remained silent for a moment, then tentatively asked, "Is it the 0-1 files?"

Xiaoyue was stunned for a moment, knowing that with Wang's continuous awakening, there were hardly any secrets that could be withheld from him, "Almost, do we have a deal?"

"That thing seems to have no trade value, I can access it myself," Wang Hao didn't want to easily break some of his principles, or rather, he wanted to deliberately tease the girl.

"That file comprises a total of 630 quintillion TB, are you sure you want to look it through yourself? Wouldn't you like to know its secrets? The artificial intelligence here, due to permission issues, cannot access its contents, not even Xiaoi; only you can read it."

Xiaoi interjected, "Yes, each past Captain, at least a Transcendent. After upgrading dimensions, a Transcendent's brain runs at the speed of light, making it possible to read this type of dossier."

Wang Hao couldn't help frowning, "Am I the weakest Captain? With human capabilities, one couldn't read one ten-thousandth of it in a lifetime?"

"No, you're the strongest Captain, without a peer."

"Whether or not you have the capability to read the file only depends on whether you're willing to do so."

After a moment of silence, Wang Hao finally sighed, "Well, if I can be lazy, why shouldn't I stay human... Let's weigh it on the Judgment Balance then."

He placed the Judgment Balance in the middle of the table, with the "0-1 files" on one side and the 'cousin' label on the other.

The balance showed that the trade was fair.

Wang Hao hesitated for a moment, not violating his principles of fair trade, feeling a bit regretful and somewhat anxious.

He reached out to tear off the 'cousin' label.

However, his hand froze mid-air.

Xiaoyue, in no hurry, joked with a wide smile, "After all this, how can you have second thoughts?"

"It's not about second thoughts," Wang Hao shook his head, "but rather about reluctance... If you're not my cousin anymore, what should your role be? Either way, it feels unsettling, maybe wait a few days?"

"That's fine, you can wait as long as you like," Xiaoyue saw his indecisiveness and said with a smile, "Don't worry too much, the 'cousin' label won't disappear; if you really miss it, I can always reapply it."

Hearing her words, Wang Hao finally relaxed.

He sat down, various thoughts streaming into his mind, his thoughts like colorful pearls, swiftly forming a brilliant constellation.

Casually grasping one of the Light Pearls, a predestined insight emerged: the days to come might not be spent on Earth, but they would be interesting!

Even though there was more information, seeing the word "interesting" improved Wang Hao's mood, rejuvenating him. More content, he chose not to look at.

He crushed and dispersed this pearl of thought.

"So, let's prioritize handling affairs on Earth first, then move on to more interesting worlds."

"What was I supposed to do... oh, intervene in Earth's environment, make sure the civilization here can develop better, after all, I've lived here so long."

...

...

Filled with this anticipation, the store named "Desire" opened once again.

The Crystal Ball flashed once, choosing the labels of "young," "clever," "aspirational" randomly selecting an Earth human.

"Ah, I didn't expect that I would end up saving humanity..." Old Wang glanced at the Book of Destiny beside him and tore out a page.

Suddenly, this page turned into a golden flash, adding a bit of spirit to the dark flame above his head.

To achieve the automation of the "Desire" store, he decided to employ "Case Law." This means completing a classic case, after which all similar cases can be processed almost identically.

This way, even if the "Desire" store wasn't very intelligent, it could always manage by following the blueprint.
