Mini World Of Endless Fun Awaits

“Mysterious phenomenon occurred in the south-eastern region of the Pacific Federation, Mayan relics suspected to be activated by teenagers!”

The QQ headline appeared on the notifications screen the moment Ren Suo checked his mobile phone after he showered. Ren Suo was forced to navigate to the settings within the QQ application to turn off notifications—he had just reinstalled the application and did not expect notifications to be turned on automatically.

After putting on his clothes, Ren Suo headed to the cafeteria of the training stadium and ordered a cup of milk tea with pudding, as well as a plate of teriyaki chicken chop with rice. Feeling refreshed, he took out his laptop and placed it on the table.

It was the second day of the Labor Day holidays, which meant that Ren Suo had to return to the Countermeasure Division the next day for an aptitude test. Although he felt that it was no use for him to train at the last minute, he still tried his luck when he woke up that morning. Perhaps he could experience an “epiphany” or a “flash of inspiration”, and improve tremendously…

There were already many people in the training stadium when he arrived there early in the morning, so the rest of the Countermeasure Division and the other departments must have also been on holiday as well. Just like Ren Suo, most of the people headed to the resting zone or the cafeteria to rest, eat, or read a book when they felt tired after Practicing. They would then continue Practicing when their energy had been replenished.

That also allowed Ren Suo to find out the daily lives of those civil servant Practitioners who were “half a step ahead of the ordinary people”. They would be very busy on regular working days, and during holidays, they would waste no time and head to the training stadium energetically to Practice.

Nonetheless, Ren Suo did not meet anyone he knew, or perhaps they were Practicing silently in the “Meditation Zone”.

Ren Suo’s laptop quickly lit up, and after entering his password, the classic Windows screen appeared. There were no software applications installed—Ren Suo had restored his laptop once and disabled all network access functions. The laptop was used especially by him to record down his findings on the Mini Worlds Gaming Console.

Similarly, his mobile phone had also been restored once to factory settings in order to remove any trace of the Mini Worlds Gaming Console on it. He had previously installed too many useless mobile applications, leading to the restriction of too many functions like the “camera” and “microphone”. To best protect his secret, he only downloaded a few necessary applications after he restored his mobile phone, and even pasted a sticker over both his front and back cameras, rendering them useless.

Ren Suo knew that it was almost like he was burying his head in the sand and deceiving himself because it was not possible to fully conceal the Mini Worlds Gaming Console if he was being investigated. However, Ren Suo felt that what he did would at least remove the possibility of “anyone accidentally finding out the secret”.

As for the information from the Mini Worlds Gaming Console, Ren Suo had not achieved the level of having “photographic memory”, so he had no choice but to record down the information before it was forgotten. Rather than writing them down in a notebook, he felt that it was naturally safer and more efficient to type it down on a laptop.

Ren Suo had even titled the content as “Novel Story Details”.

It was perfectly normal for an over-twenty young man who did not wish to work to imagine himself as a writer, right?

First of all, there was a document named “Main Character’s Abilities”. Ren Suo wrote down all the abilities he had and added on details that were not mentioned in the description of the ability.

Taking “Unlimited Energy” for example, when the ability was activated, the user would not feel tired and would be unable to sleep; and “Touch of Recovery” for example, could actually create six-packs.

Ren Suo touched his abdomen and felt that his abdominal muscles had become firmer and more toned, and there was even a “+” line—he knew that some of his classmates who played basketball often had such bodies.

“Touch of Recovery” would take effect the moment it was activated. If the body part that was in contact was not severely “damaged”, it would be “improved” to its maximum capability based on the genetic map.

In addition, “improving” consumed more energy than “healing”. When Ren Suo woke up the previous day, he purposely cut his finger while bearing the pain to test the ability. He did not feel lethargic after treating the cut, and yet the wound had healed completely.

Thereafter, Ren Suo had made more than thirty cuts on his arm which appeared so severe that his relatives would have rushed him to a mental hospital for treatment if he had posted a picture of it on his social media account. When he finished treating himself, he did not feel tired at all.

Then, Ren Suo started “improving” his stomach area. Less than ten seconds later, he started feeling lethargic. But when he started the next round of treatment when he regained energy, it would cause him to fall into a deep sleep, regardless of what he was treating.

Although the Touch of Recovery consumed his internal Reiki, it did not use much of it. Rather, it depleted more of Ren Suo’s physical energy and mental concentration. Ren Suo had thought about what would happen if he could equip himself with two abilities at the same time. With “Unlimited Energy” and “Touch of Recovery”, he could possibly even revive a person in times of emergency.

But that was just his imagination. As a player, he had only gotten one more backup ability slot after leveling up by one level. Having more ability or prop slots was an unreachable goal for the time being.

Ren Suo opened the second document, “Main Storyline”.

That was where he recorded down what he was going to do next.

After completing the game “Holy Priest: Survival Battle”, he received one more 2-star treasure chest. However, the problem was that he did not have a key.

As such, his next plan was to figure a way to retrieve a key—the treasure chests had decent items in them and could give pleasant surprises.

Afterwhich, it was the game he was going to choose next.

[May Day Golden Week Promotion: 20~50% OFF games!]

[Free Games of the Month: ‘A Strong Warrior Ascends 10,000 Meters’, ‘Lurk: Chapter 1’]

There were only two free games to choose from that month, and one of which was “A Strong Warrior Ascends 10,000 Meers” that he had already purchased!

Perhaps he had been weirdly deluded by the three given options the previous month since the truth was that when he first received the Mini Worlds Gaming Console in March, there was only one free game option: “The Hitman: Chapter 1”.

In that case, Ren Suo should have been thankful that there was more than one option to choose from since the number of free games to choose from each month was not set.

Other than “A Strong Warrior Ascends 10,000 Meters”, Ren Suo somehow felt that he had seen the game “Lurk” appear many times.

If not for the May Day Golden Week Lucky Pick event, Ren Suo would have had no choice but to try out the game that had already appeared previously. However, the May Day promotion provided him with another option.

[May Day Golden Week Special Lucky Pick Event: The player can choose to spend 10 merit points to pick a discounted game at random, and it will be added to the list of free games for the month!]

[Remarks: The player must not have picked a free game for the month.]

When Ren Suo opened the “Free Game of the Month” page, the system would automatically display the details of the Lucky Pick Event, so Ren Suo naturally focused on the promoted games.

He could only pick one free game to play, which meant that regardless of how many times he played the Lucky Pick, he could still only select one of them to play for free.

However, the May Day promotion was a major one and there were thirty games that were on sale. Furthermore, most of the games cost over 50 merit points after the discount, and if he was lucky, he would benefit by picking a game of moderate difficulty.

“Lurk: Chapter 1” was a game with a 2-star difficulty, but the maximum reward was only 100 merit points, lower than that of other single-chapter 2-star games.

Moreover, if he picked a game with a 3-star difficulty, he would make a huge profit!

There was even one 3+ star game—the entire series of “Over My Dead Body”!

It was the first time that Ren Suo saw such a strange game difficulty: 3+ stars. According to the system, it meant that the game was more difficult than a game of a 3-star difficulty but less challenging than a game of a 4-star difficulty.

Only lower-leveled players would see the “+” sign. If Ren Suo was a Level 4 player, he would not see the “+” sign.

If a lower-leveled player managed to complete a “+” game, the player would receive much more Player Experience Points. Player Experience Points cannot be viewed and would be accumulated each time a game is completed. The player would level up when the criterion for the number of Experience Points accumulated was met.

Nonetheless, Ren Suo finally learned the true cost of “Over My Dead Body”—320 merit points. There were four chapters and the total maximum number of merit points of all of them was 800 merit points. Each chapter had different specialized rewards and treasure chests, so it was equivalent to buying four games.

But even though it was on 50% OFF, 160 merit points were still required to purchase it.

However, Ren Suo would be able to play it for free if he picked it!

There were still a few days left until the promotion ended, so Ren Suo was not in a rush to make a decision.

Ren Suo continued Practicing in the afternoon. Although he was able to utilize the “advanced method”, in addition to the aid of “Unlimited Energy”, the growth of his breathing current was still relatively slow.

He was not that talented, and even a talented individual required a few days of continuous Practice to improve his breathing current. For someone like Ren Suo who did not Practice diligently and consistently, and who had a poor talent score, he could well fall behind the average standards of an ordinary Xuan Nation Practitioner.

Even with the Mini Worlds Gaming Console, although it gave him a tiny boost in ability, an ability which would directly increase his standard of Practice was still presently unheard of.

If only his home was concentrated with Reiki, Ren Suo would be able to perform the advanced method of training whenever he was playing games or even when he was eating, sleeping or defecating. But, how could life be so good…

At night, when Ren Suo was on the subway and about to reach home, he suddenly received a call.

“It’s me, Little Suo,” the voice on the other end of the line said.

“Oh, Chairman Xie!” Ren Suo replied, immediately figuring out who it was. He asked, “What’s up?”

“What do you mean… Don’t you remember that you asked me for a favor to find a person? I found the person,” Xie Qiansi said.

“Find a person… Oh, Zhao Zili!” Ren Suo said as he suddenly recalled the favor he asked of Xie Qiansi. He said, “You found her.”

Xie Qiansi replied, “I asked my uncle for help, and he finally managed to find the person you described after much effort…”

“What’s the price?” said Ren Suo.

“Just remember that I did you a favor,” Xie Qiansi said.

Ren Suo laughed and said, “Truly, Chairman Xie… How are you so sure that I will repay the favor in the future?”

“You’re someone who doesn’t like to work and isn’t very motivated either,” Xie Qiansi replied. He continued, “But you always bring unexpected performance… I can only say that you are lucky. And luck is the strongest capital at any point in time.”

“Alright, alright, thank you for your help. So you found Zhao Zili?” Ren Suo said.

“Yes,” Xie Qiansi replied. His tone was more serious as he continued, “But first, did you really not know this person beforehand? Did she offend you?”

“Huh?” Ren Suo said, slightly puzzled. He asked, “No, I don’t know her. Why?”

Xie Qiansi said, “There are a total of 674 people in Xuan Nation called Zhao Zili, of which there are only 51 people in the age group of 16~30 as you described. And the physical appearance and characteristics of only 2 of them matched what you described. One of them is in Heilongjiang City, and the other is in Lianjiang City.”

“In Lianjiang City? How coincidental,” said a surprised Ren Suo. He asked, “But, the person I’m looking for could be the one in Heilongjiang City…”

Xie Qiansi continued, “Also, the Zhao Zili in Lianjiang City is a drug addict and a diabetic patient. She has past records of burglary and theft and was admitted to the hospital half a month ago, after being involved in a fight with gangsters. She has no relatives and no money to treat his illness, so she has been in the hospital ever since then, struggling between life and death.”

“And just yesterday afternoon, she breathed her last and passed away. She is probably in the morgue by now,” Xie Qiansi said.
