Restricted fantasy invasion

Chapter 419, Section 416: Acting Willfully

"."

Yan Huan pinched her chin, lost in thought.

He had thought about it many times, so he was absolutely certain:
Previously, Bai Yi's desires were completely insufficient to evolve the modifier to the third stage.

Even if I die in front of her, she will only barely enter the second stage and be able to open the space-time barrier.

Therefore, based on the answer given by the evil god, Yan Huan couldn't help but guess that the ring finger's ability might be quite special.

Is it possible that, although Ye Shiyu calls it the "third stage," this ability doesn't necessarily have to appear after the second stage?
This means
Yan Huan narrowed her eyes and finally asked,
"When the ring finger descended upon Bai Yi, it already possessed the abilities of the third stage, right?"

"Gululu!"

Upon hearing this, countless pink crabs crawled ashore, each holding up a wooden sign.
"Yes."

"!!"

Yan Huan's eyes narrowed slightly as she looked up at the darkness before her, clearly shocked.

That's really true.
However, if the ring finger possesses the third stage of ability from birth, it means...
From the very beginning of the spring semester, if Bai Yi obtains the cheat code, he's guaranteed to explode on his 19th birthday?!
How does this work? !

Yan Huan gritted her teeth, her mind racing.

No, it can't possibly be that exaggerated.
As Miao Jiang once said, the capabilities of game modifiers are all achieved by exploiting vulnerabilities.

In other words, no matter how exaggerated the expression may be, it must still follow some basic principles.

The activation of the ring finger's ability definitely requires certain conditions.

"Bai Yi? Who is Bai Yi?"

"."

For some reason, Yan Huan suddenly recalled many words that other hosts had said.

His expression changed slightly, and he quickly grasped a solution from what had already happened:
Even if a bomb is to be detonated, it must be placed next to a detonator.

Similarly, for an effect to be activated, it must come into contact with the target.

On the world line, this "contact" means
Knot.

In other words, what kind of bond did she develop with herself after obtaining the modifier?
Whether it was an unpleasant first meeting or whether he later lied to her and said he was her fan, it doesn't matter.
Without all of these, the ring finger's ability might not be able to activate itself.

"!!"

But upon thinking of this, Yan Huan's face suddenly turned pale.

This perfectly explains why, before he traveled back in time, no one suddenly recognized Bai Yi.

If Bai Yi, who traveled back in time, had also realized this, and had done the same.
So why did she eventually disappear?
This feeling of witnessing a predetermined tragic ending yet being unable to avoid approaching it filled Yan Huan with immense fear.

"If this is a time loop, then no matter what I do, I'm just part of this tragic cycle. No matter what I do, will I always end up with the same fate?"

After asking the three questions, Yan Huan glanced at the darkness before him. He said nothing, but turned away with his face shrouded in shadow, intending to leave.

But for some reason, ever since the several incidents of evil gods descending...
Especially the time when his index finger almost burned into a relic.

Yan Huan felt that it was unlikely that the evil god would lie about such a thing.

"Gululu~"

But at this moment, countless crabs were still surrounding him, seemingly preventing him from leaving.

Ok?
Yan Huan looked down and saw that they had raised their signs again.
"Here's a question for you, but make it interesting."

"If you ask these pointless questions again, you won't get any response."

Could you please provide a question?
You really know how to do business.

Yan Huan turned around and looked at the darkness behind her with a speechless expression, her brows twitching slightly.

Boring things won't get a response.
Therefore, asking about the ring finger and Bai Yi at this moment will probably not yield any results.

But right now, Yan Huan's mind is completely focused on how to save Bai Yi; the rest are just questions that interest her.
"."

Yan Huan thought for a few seconds, then, with an indifferent attitude, looked into the darkness before her and asked,

"The World Modulator has no negative effects and it really works, right?"

"hehe."

After the question was posed, a laugh came from the darkness.

Not only that, but all the tiny crabs on the ground tilted their heads back and trembled slightly, as if they were laughing.

"Hehe. Hehe."

"."

Seeing this, Yan Huan rolled her eyes and turned to leave.

But as soon as he turned around, he felt an itch in his palm.

He paused slightly, then looked down.
Then they saw it: In the center of the darkness surrounded by those five towering fingers, a single word appeared:

"Yes."

"Well"

The next day, morning.

On the bed, Bai Yi's long eyelashes trembled slightly, like butterfly wings fluttering, pulling her starry eyes out of her reverie.

She opened her eyes, a hint of confusion reflected in their depths.

That was a white cat sitting demurely.

"Awake, meow?"

"Swallow Leaf".

"Good morning."

"Well"

Bai Yi rubbed her eyes, then whimpered and buried her head in the pillow, making a cute sound.

Immediately afterwards, she remained motionless, completely entering a state of going back to sleep.

"Meow?"

Yan Huan watched as she tilted her head, but didn't urge her. Instead, she focused her gaze back on the virtual interface in front of her.

He is choosing what he will cherish this week.

【Horn Cup】

[A magical item formed from fragments of a thumb's scepter, a drinking vessel made from a bull's horn]

[Can be used only once. Drinking the beverage grants 100% resistance to mod effects that cannot be penetrated after 1 hour.]

However, as a price, when the effect ends, you will enter a prolonged and extremely painful state of weakness.

[Avatar]

[A magical ability formed from fragments of the middle finger's authority, creating a doll that is exactly like you.]

[After using it, you will gain a clone that completely obeys you.]

This clone will replicate 75% of your attributes.

[Fujizu Counterfeit]

[A wondrous object formed from fragments of the little finger's authority, a weapon disguised as an organ]

When used to strike enemies, it will randomly trigger a powerful effect from the pinky finger modifier, while completely ignoring enemy resistance.

What is this thing?!

Yan Huan's cat face flushed slightly as she looked away from the third reward, which was covered in mosaics.

After much thought, I could only choose the first horn cup.

However, just as Yan Huan made a move, Bai Yi gently reached out and hugged Yan Ye into his arms.

She touched Yan Huan's body and asked in confusion,
"Yan Ye, have you gained weight? You look so much fatter."

"Meow?!"

Yan Huan glanced at her body, which had become slightly rounder after consuming the crab coins, her eyes darting around, and explained,
"You slightly upgraded your cheat program yesterday, that's why I look like this."

The words had barely left his lips when a phantom voice immediately rang in his ears.

Wow, so easy to fool! You fooled her again, you've accumulated points. Keep it up, you big liar!

"."

666, and there's even a taunting sound effect?!

Yan Huan's face darkened; she now deeply regretted choosing this thing.

"Upgrade? What was upgraded?"

"Something about world lines. I'm more sensitive to world lines now, meow. Hmm, that's right."

Wow, so easy to fool!

"."

Aren't you annoying?!
Yan Huan's claws trembled on the bed, as if she were tracing the words "TD" with her claws.

Bai Yi blinked, looking puzzled. Then, after a moment's thought, she said...

"I'll think about it. I still want to give Yanye a try."

"Try?"

"That's right, if I go back to the day Yan Huan had the accident, I'll go and save him. Maybe I can bring him back to life."

"I already said, this won't work. Once you decide to take action, you must plan ahead. Changing the past is not an ordinary action; it will have very serious consequences, meow."

Yan Huan spoke earnestly, but as Bai Yi looked at him, Ye Shiyu's warning from the previous night inevitably resurfaced in his mind.

plotting something
Evil God
Harmful to Yan Huan.
"Well"

The more Bai Yi thought about it, the more her cheeks puffed out.

Before Yan Huan could finish speaking, she immediately pouted and interrupted.
"I don't care, I have to go."

"Meow?!"

Yan Huan's eyes widened as she looked up at Bai Yi in front of her.

This was the first time Yan Huan had felt her clear rejection.

Furthermore, Yan Huan looked up and saw something in her eyes.
Distrust. What's going on?

Yan Huan narrowed her eyes, increasingly feeling that something might have happened last night that she didn't know about.

Is it when I lose consciousness and it escalates?

He cautiously refrained from speaking rashly, instead adopting a thoughtful expression as he looked up at Bai Yi and asked,

"Are you sure, meow? After yesterday's upgrade, I actually have some ideas about how Yan Huan got into trouble. Do you want to hear them before we act?"

Wow, so easy to fool!

Aren't you annoying?!
Yan Huan's face darkened, and she was so angry that her teeth itched.

Bai Yi, however, was utterly naive and couldn't keep a secret at all. Initially distrustful, she immediately hesitated again upon hearing Yan Huan's words.

"Then tell me what you think?"

"Yan Huan's accident might be related to me, specifically the pocket watch in your possession. But it wasn't intentional; this ability is a passive effect."

Yan Huan looked at Bai Yi and said seriously,
"This also means that from the moment I came into your body, as long as you know Yan Huan and become entangled with him, he will die on his 19th birthday."

"So that's why."

"So even if you went back to that day now, it would be useless no matter what you did, meow!"

"So, according to you, if I get to know Yan Huan, he'll die?! Only if I don't know him or have any contact with him can he live?!"

"."

Yan Huan opened her mouth, about to speak, when she looked up at Bai Yi in front of her.
But she was biting her lip, her eyes slightly red, clearly unable to accept this answer.

Ming
Previously, when he thought of this answer in front of the evil god, he only felt fear of being destined.

But at this moment, seeing the girl in front of him with such an expression because she couldn't recognize him, he suddenly felt sad.

So he lowered his eyes and murmured,

"Perhaps... there are others."

Looking at Yan Huan in front of him, Bai Yi wiped his eyes and said firmly,
"So you really are the evil god?!"

"Meow?!"

what? !

An evil god?!
I?
Yan Huan's eyes widened, wondering where this idiot got this ridiculous information from.

"I am not."

"You are!"

"I'm not!"

"Then what are you?!"

"I am... your cheat code avatar, Meow!"

Wow, so easy to fool! So easy to fool, bro!!

I've already told you, you're fucking annoying, you know that?!
Bai Yi sniffed, abruptly tossing the fat cat in her arms aside, and wiping her eyes, said...
"You better be!"

"."

Yan Huan sat there, watching her turn around, get up, and leave the room, and couldn't help but sigh.

In my mind, Meow-chan's voice rang out at just the right moment.

"Why not just go along with her for now? Anyway, what she changed this time is very simple. You've already experienced it, so it won't have a big impact."

"But this is just the beginning, Meow-chan."

"The important thing isn't changing the past this time, the important thing is that you need to appease her first, otherwise you won't be able to do anything later, meow."

Miao Jiang's calm voice unconsciously calmed Yan Huan down as well.
"The important thing is that since you've decided to change the past, you have to understand the rules of changing the past."

"Only with a thorough understanding of the mechanism can you come up with the perfect solution to the problem."
"Yan Huan, you don't want to avoid contact with Bai Yi either, do you?"

Upon hearing this, Yan Huan's gaze hardened.

He nodded and jumped out of bed as well.

"There's no way to fix the trainer without touching it, right?"

"Hmm, how to fix the cheat engine, meow?"

"uh-huh."

Wow, so easy to fool! So easy to fool, bro!

?

Yan Huan blinked, thinking to herself, "It's not like I'm lying to Bai Yi, why does this lousy system have to report this?!"

Just as I was about to start criticizing, the illusory interface in front of me gradually disappeared.

Until it turned into a black cat hair.

This is the interface that Meow-chan created!

"."

Feeling that her feelings had been exposed, Yan Huan panicked and slapped the cat fur away.

Immediately, he ran out to find Bai Yi.

"Okay, whatever you say, meow, let's go back to that day."

"Hey?"

Afternoon, 4:42.

Bai Yi changed her clothes, using the same clothes to cover her figure and avoid exposure.

Upon hearing this, she turned to look at the white cat beside her and pursed her lips.

"Well, in that case..."

"But there is one thing I need to make clear, Bai Yi."

"What?"

Bai Yi looked at the serious-looking white cat in front of her, and pursed her lips.
"I am not an evil god, and I will not harm you or Yan Huan."

"."

Hearing this, Bai Yi was slightly stunned.

Meeting Yan Ye's golden gaze, she slightly averted her eyes and looked at Ye Shiyu, who remained silent to the side.

Looking into her eyes, Yan Huan finally realized where this guy learned his paranoia!

"!!"

Yan Huan immediately turned to look at Ye Shiyu, who stood with her arms crossed and expressionless.

He looked just like Cao Wushang, the Left Sima, who had been betrayed by Xiang Yu.

"Okay, okay, I know, stop talking now, let's go!"

Seemingly realizing that he hadn't done well, Bai Yi awkwardly scratched his head, quickly took out his pocket watch, and urged him on.

Yan Huan remained silent, only glancing at Ye Shiyu.

He then thought for a moment, and suddenly his eyes flickered slightly.

The brainwave ability immediately transmitted information into Ye Shiyu's mind.

"Sister Shiyu, it's me."

"!!"

Upon hearing this, Ye Shiyu's expression immediately changed, and she looked incredulously at the white cat that had been watching her the whole time beside Bai Yi.

Yan Huan, with her golden eyes narrowed, kept her gaze fixed on the world line.

Worldline.
Not a single change!
Letting the people in the "if" timeline know your identity will not have any impact on the world line!

Therefore, last night's fluctuations were simply because Bai Yi had doubts about herself!
Knowing this, Yan Huan gained a better understanding of the timelines.

At the same time, he looked at Ye Shiyu and gave a cute "meow".

"."

Ye Shiyu pursed her lips, covered her lower abdomen, and after a long while, the corners of her mouth finally turned up slightly.

"What's wrong, Ye Shiyu?"

".nothing."

But when Bai Yi asked, she shook her head knowingly and said nothing.

Ye Shiyu's intelligence is no match for Bai Yi's. Only Bai Yi would do something as stupid as directly pointing out that Yan Huan is an evil god.

It's fortunate that Yan Huan isn't like that; if it were true, she wouldn't even know what had happened to her.

"Have you brought your things?"

"Uh-huh!"

Bai Yi patted his bulging clothes and nodded.

On it were many of the modding tools that Ye Shiyu had given her.

Oh, Yan Huan also secretly packed some crab coins for her, hoping she could bring them back to reality.

Personal shopper!

Um.
"Then, let's go!"

After saying that, Bai Yi took out a pocket watch and started turning the clock on it.

A phantom golden clock also flowed from Yan Huan's eyes, coalescing into a real shape.

Then, little by little, specific times were specified.

“Didi. Ta-da.”

"Kakakaka!!"

In an instant, a massive spatial rift opened up.

It appeared prominently among them.
It is an uninhabited villa area in Beihai District.

That is.
The actual timeline: 4:44 PM the day before my death!
