A game where you have to pay to win? But I have a lifespan roulette wheel!

"what?"

What is that?

When did I acquire another identity?

The Magic King simply removed himself from the causal chain.

Now you're talking to me about someone who can reverse cause and effect?

"What do you mean?"

"It's normal that you don't understand now; you'll understand once it becomes your sole profession."

"You can't tell me now! I hate riddle-makers!"

Jiang Lin had a headache.

No.

After Blue Star became invincible.

He just wants to play games to his heart's content.

Don't give him these brain-taxing things, they give me a headache.

The King of Curses made no move.

Or rather, he is currently unable to do anything.

Only the light in his eyes dimmed and then brightened again.

"My time is running out. There are some things you shouldn't know too early. Here's a piece of advice: during the Blue Star invasion, before the unique profession enters the game, you must first acquire the unique profession. Remember that."

"..."

"You don't need to tell me, I'll do it anyway. Just tell me, what do you want to do?"

Jiang Lin didn't believe that someone completely unrelated to him would call him over for no reason just to give him some advice.

"I want to ask you for a favor."

"I refuse."

Jiang Lin turned around and prepared to leave.

The only profession, such a shameless mechanism.

They can even ask for help from themselves.

It's obviously not a good thing.

I won't answer!

Hearing Jiang Lin's refusal.

The King of Curses did not show any disappointment.

Just a light touch of the finger.

The entire space is transformed.

In the endless darkness.

Only Jiang Lin remained, along with the Cursed King atop the enormous throne.

"What do you mean? Are you planning to use force?"

Do you really think his teleportation is vegetarian?

now.

The cursed king, who sat atop the enormous throne, began to regain his full flesh and blood, his body which had been withered and emaciated.

soon.

The shriveled human-skinned skeleton then transformed back into its former plump appearance.

He was a middle-aged man who appeared to be quite upright.

It doesn't match his title of King of Curses at all.

"Jiang Lin, being a single professional isn't as free as you imagine. We also face crises and challenges."

"With such a shameless mechanism, how can there be a crisis?"

Sole profession.

In Jiang Lin's mind.

That's the amazing concept of per capita income. With such a shameless mechanism, what crisis could there possibly be?

"Heh, if that were really the case, how could I have become like this? Once you have your own unique profession, you'll understand everything. The Life-Saving Game isn't a free benefit that lets us enter the extraordinary world; it's a challenge, and also a curse."

"I don't understand, speak like a human."

"Ahem, let's put it this way: with pay-to-win games appearing and so many unique classes being created, there must be a purpose, right?"

"What? Is the world facing an extinction crisis, and we need to cultivate top-tier combat power?"

That's how most novels are set up anyway.

Hearing Jiang Lin's remarks.

The King of Curses smiled.

"I can't tell you, you'll find out."

"Oh, that's alright, I'm off, bye-bye."

So you've moved to a different place and are still playing the riddle game, huh?

I'm done playing!

"Wait a minute, I do have something to ask of you."

"I don't do business with riddle solvers."

"If you agree to what I asked for, I'm willing to give you a rare item dropped by a world boss as your reward."

"Strange object?"

This thing has appeared a few times.

It seems that the King of Sin initially sought out the Beast King for some strange artifact.

amount……

if it is like this.

Jiang Lin did not teleport away immediately.

"What kind of strange item is this? Let me check it out first."

Hey.

It's about doing business.

No chills.

Regardless of principles, as long as one's character is not betrayed and the benefits are sufficient, it is acceptable to take appropriate risks.

"grateful."

The King of Curses nodded and bowed slightly to Jiang Lin.

"I haven't agreed yet."

He had just finished speaking.

Something appeared in the hands of the King of Curses.

It floated down in front of Jiang Lin.

Jiang Lin can see his attributes.

[Time Singularity - Frozen Thorn]

Quality: Rare item

Effect: A seemingly ordinary crystal spike. When it is pierced into a target (which can be an object, a living being, or a space), it will generate an "absolute time freeze zone" with a radius of ten meters centered on the point of piercing. Time within this zone will be frozen in an absolute and irreversible state until the heat death of the universe.

Everything within the area, including energy, thought, causality, and conceptual influence, will be frozen. No intervention from outside the area can penetrate or affect its interior. (It can only be inserted manually; once inserted, the user themselves will also be frozen in time.)

"hiss……"

It looks very strong.

but.

"Does it also work for those with only one profession?"

"The rare item is the only item that can have an effect on a single profession."

"So, with this, I can seal away a unique professional at the cost of my own life?"

"That's one way to understand it."

Well known.

The only professional, notoriously difficult to kill.

But he's also bloodthirsty.

Because the way to kill them is right there in the open.

Here we must mention the legendary workaholic, the King of Sins.

Killing him is simple: kill him through a contract, let him die of exhaustion, and remove him from the top spot on the criminal list, allowing him to switch to his only profession.

The principle is simple, but it is very difficult to implement.

But this solidified thorn offers a new perspective.

Permanent seal.

With only one, the effect might not be very good.

But in Jiang Lin's hands, there were 100 of them!

That means something completely different.

It can be described as a nuclear weapon against those who are the only professionals.

want to.

heart.

It requires manual insertion by the user and is a self-destructive weapon. Even if Jiang Lin doesn't use it himself, he doesn't want it to be leaked.

"Speak, what do you want to ask me for a favor?"

For the baby.

Jiang Lin eventually gave in.

The King of Curses, under Jiang Lin's reluctant gaze.

He retracted the solidified spikes.

"I knew you would agree. Actually, it's very simple. I need you to go to the intersection of all worlds and retrieve something for me."

"What is it?"

"My life box."

"What is it?"

Jiang Lin picked at his ear.

I think I misheard.

A casket of life? Isn't that something only liches possess?

"You heard me right, it's my life box. In that great battle with Cursed Mountain, I unfortunately fell into his trap and have been suffering his corruption for three thousand years. I can't hold on much longer. I need you to retrieve my life box and destroy it."

"Do you want to commit suicide?"

The term "fate box" implies that it is related to one's fate.

The King of Curses nodded.

"I do not understand."

If you want to die, it's simple. Just find a way to clear your time, or quietly wait for it to finish corroding and then die peacefully.

Why go to all this trouble?

The King of Curses seemed to understand what Jiang Lin was thinking.

With a wave of his hand.

This time they appeared in the sky.

Below is the scenery of the cursed city.

As mentioned before, the cities in the game are roughly the size of a country.

However, countries vary in size.

For example, the City of Liberty is relatively small, probably about the same size as the cherry blossoms.

The City of Curses is much larger, probably about the size of the three black provinces of the Dragon Kingdom.

After all, this guy has been sitting on this golden toilet for three thousand years.

It has been developing for who knows how many years, so it's normal for it to have this size now.

"Because I can't bear to leave this place. Whether I die from corruption or from the exhaustion of time, I will be completely corrupted and become the new world boss. This cursed city will become my domain. Only when I am completely killed will it not affect this place."
