The Blasphemous Wizard of the Weird World

Chapter 165: The Interference of the Fraudster
Yang Qizhou was also very curious about this question.

At the beginning, the 'Ancient God of the Tree' was still able to maintain a hypocritical appearance, so that Yang Qizhou once thought that he had wronged him. However, as time went on, the ruler of 'Asgard' stopped pretending and did not hide his malice towards the game characters at all.

It's just short of writing the words "I'm going to cheat you" on your face.
However, the 'King of Oath' is the ruler of the Glorious Kingdom and possesses the status of a 'pillar-level'. Yang Qizhou really couldn't understand how the 'Ancient God of Trees' could avoid the oath established under his witness.

"By the way, the 'Ancient God of Trees' has long been in collusion with the Endless Abyss."

"Could it be that……"

As if he thought of something, Yang Qizhou narrowed his eyes.

Soon the text refreshed again.

……

……

"At this moment, you can see that the kingdom of the Ancient God of Trees has become increasingly distorted and indescribable. There is a vaguely evil force that is completely contrary to nature and is spreading."

"In response to your question, the 'Ancient God of Trees' also gave a malicious answer."

"Fraud is one of the two rulers of the Endless Abyss, the authority that commands endless demons, the great being. He is the lord of lies and disguises, the shadow of truth, and the king of the unreal world. All gods and demons, and even all extraordinary lives, respectfully call him..."

"The Lord of Fraud."

"Master of Fraud?"

"You subconsciously thought of the fellow villager who possessed the destiny gift of a 'trickster' whom you met in the 'Dead River', and then thought of the characteristics corresponding to the symbol of 'trickster', and immediately understood the plan of the 'Ancient God of Trees'."

"You stared at the 'Ancient God of Trees' and said... You have already betrayed the Ancient God and your companions. You have already colluded with the 'Lord of Fraud'. Is there something wrong with the 'Oath' you just made?"

"That's very clever, Mr. Wizard."

"As a slightly teasing voice sounded, you saw the 'Ancient God of Trees' took out a dark parchment scroll. As He chanted the full name of the 'Lord of Fraud', an indescribable feeling welled up in your heart."

"It's the oath just now,"

"Under the power of the 'Lord of Fraud', the oath originally witnessed by the 'Lord of Oath' is being tampered with."

[1: Under the witness of the 'Lord of the Oath', the 'Ancient God of the Tree' will answer your doubts, and you will need to pay an equivalent soul in exchange]

[Two: Under the witness of the 'Lord of the Oath', the answer of the 'Ancient God of the Tree' must be true and effective, and as the price, you cannot use any method to avoid or replace the price you are about to pay.]

[Three: Under the witness of the 'Lord of the Oath', when the 'Ancient God of the Tree' has answered all the questions, if its value exceeds the soul of Mr. 'Wizard', then everything about you, including your soul, consciousness, and emotions, will become the property of the 'Ancient God of the Tree'.]

……

……

Damn, isn’t this too insidious?

Seeing the latest content in the text, Yang Qizhou was shocked, and at the same time he understood that the real oath was like this. No wonder the "Ancient God of the Tree" was so kind and spared no effort to answer the questions raised by the game characters. It turned out that the higher the value of the secret information answered, the more souls the game characters would need to pay.

"You can't wait to tell all this information so that you can quickly take over the soul of the game character, but you're also pretending to be gritting your teeth and getting angry. 'Ancient God of the Tree', you're really good at acting. If you came to our world, I'd give you an Oscar."

Complaining, Yang Qizhou continued to refresh the text.

……

……

"The content of the oath was actually tampered with by the authority of the 'Lord of Fraud'?"

"You were very surprised. Although you had guessed before that the 'Ancient God of Trees' was in collusion with the 'Endless Abyss', you never thought that the 'Ancient God of Trees' would be favored by one of the two rulers of the 'Endless Abyss', the king of all demons, the Lord of Deception."

"It was at this time..."

"You heard the voice of the 'Ancient Tree God' filled with excitement, pride, nervousness, and anticipation."

"The 'King of the Covenant' is a pillar-level deity. Although the power of his authority has been weakened without the cultivation of the 'Wizard', his status has not been lowered. Only 'pillar-level' deities can contend against 'pillar-level' deities. And using the symbol of the 'Lord of Fraud' to tamper with the testimony of the 'King of the Covenant', isn't this a very reasonable thing to do?"

"The Ancient Tree God paused, and then continued...Mr. Wizard, it is obvious that your soul is not enough to match the secret information I provide. According to the terms of the oath, under the witness of the Lord of Fraud, your soul, consciousness, body, and strength will all become my property."

"Hahahahahaha."

"Soon, I will be able to use your characteristics of accommodating the 'Old Roots' to nourish my symbol and authority, allowing my originally stagnant and even declining status to be promoted again."

"You who once ruled the ancient land, you who blasphemed the divinity, you should become my property."

"You see the figure of the 'Old God of Trees' is distorted. He is no longer the image of a kind old man. Instead, he is like a world tree that gathers all the concepts of 'trees' in the universe and supports the stars. It is sublime and indescribable. Behind him, there is a clown who is like hiding behind an endless curtain and about to go on stage. His shadow seems to cover half of the universe."

"You have a sudden realization in your heart. This is a partial manifestation of the divinity of the Ancient God of Trees. The shadow behind Him symbolizes the power of the Lord of Deception."

“You see dense, indescribable, bizarre and absurd symbols emerging from the depths of the soul and manifesting on the surface of the body.”

"You have a realization in your heart. In one minute at most, the oath seized and tampered by the 'Lord of Fraud' will take effect, and then you will become the property of the 'Ancient God of Trees'."

"But you didn't feel panicked. On the contrary, you smiled. The crow's cry was already ringing in your mind..."

"Faced with the tragic ending that is about to come, you not only don't feel fear, but on the contrary you laugh. This puzzles the 'Ancient Tree God'. In his opinion, you should be trembling all over and humbly begging for mercy now, instead of laughing so brightly that it makes people want to beat you up."

"What are you laughing at? Do you know what fate you are about to face?"

"The voice of the Ancient Tree God is filled with annoyance, and perhaps a hint of uneasiness about your abnormal behavior."

"Your smile has become even brighter, and of course, even more annoying... 'Ancient God of the Tree', you asked me before where I knew the news that 'Destiny has returned'. I can tell you now."

"Because of me, I'm back."

"I am destiny."

"Desecrated Dark Crow, come back to me..."

……

……

Wait, wait, stop for a moment. The part about getting the free game in the 'Shop of Destiny' hasn't started yet. If we go back to the game now, we will lose at least tens of thousands of old fans.

Yang Qizhou quickly stopped refreshing the text, and was relieved to see that the plot did not go back to the last time he made a choice.

But then troubles came.

So... what should I buy?

"The 30 Fate Flames that were previously listed in the 'Fate Exchange' have all been sold. Adding the old offerings that I originally had, the total number of old offerings is now quite large, a staggering 29840."

"Exchange all of them for the 'Fire Bottle of Destiny'?"

"That's fine. Gather 300 Fire Bottles of Destiny and continue to sell each for 80 old festivals. That's 24000 old festivals."

"But there is a problem..."

"It took nearly half an hour to sell out the 200 Fire Bottles of Fate. This proves that although there are many players in [Weird World], the first echelon of players who get the Fate Achievement and open the 'Fate Shop' is not as large as I imagined. The 'Fire Bottles of Fate' that were put in place before may have emptied most of their belongings. This means that even if all 300 Fire Bottles of Fate are put in place, there is a small probability that they will not be able to cash in immediately."

This issue is neither big nor small.

I say it's not a big deal because, after all, the Fire Bottle of Fate sold by myself is 20 yuan cheaper than that in the 'Shop of Fate'. As long as the price is here, the advanced players who need the [Fire Bottle of Fate] will go to the 'Fate Exchange' to buy it. No matter it is 300 or 1000, there will always be a day when they will sell out.

It is not small because high-level players can only get so many old offerings, and the market is so big. Such large-scale sales will sooner or later overdraw the market.

"Perhaps I can change my thinking. The way to sell [Fire Bottle of Fate] is no longer limited to the old festival, but there are more possibilities."

When this idea popped up in his mind, Yang Qizhou couldn't wait to try it out.

First, open the "Shop of Destiny" and buy [Fire Bottle of Destiny] for all the old festivals. Then open the "Destiny Exchange", put one of the fire bottles on it, and try to change the selling method.

[Fire Bottle of Destiny]*1, price: 80 old offerings.

Unfortunately, it failed. The sales method of "Fire Bottle of Destiny" cannot be exchanged for other things or secret information except old offerings.

"It would be great if we could modify the 'Fate Exchange' function of the game [Weird World]." Yang Qizhou muttered to himself. As the owner of the 'Unlucky Crow', he didn't think this was a fantastic idea.

He had a premonition,

When the status of the 'fate' god reaches a certain level, he may be able to influence and interfere with some functions of the game 'Strange World'.

Time was urgent, so Yang Qizhou didn't think about anything else. He put 300 copies of [Fire Bottle of Fate] on the "Fate Exchange" at the price of 80 old festivals each, and then couldn't wait to continue the game.
