Am I going to be controlled by the players too?

The long, rambling passage is actually saying: The Buddha pointed to his disciple Kasyapa Namo and said to the crowd, "This disciple of mine will be extraordinary in the future, incredibly powerful. He will attain Buddhahood, have hundreds of billions of bodhisattvas under his command, and even the demon king will wholeheartedly support the Dharma. Tell me, isn't that amazing?"

None of them seem as powerful as the Primordial Spirit.

Furthermore, putting aside reality, there is clearly no Buddha in the game world.

It's not that there's absolutely none; at least some people in the empire believe in Buddha. However, this belief is categorized by Himegami as "folk belief," belonging to artificially created myths and legends, unlike her and Amber God, who are true gods of the mortal realm achieved through primal essence.

Therefore, this introduction implies that Shakyamuni Buddha actually existed, and that Mu Zimi is an incarnation of the Buddha.

Cheng Cheng didn't know whether to believe it or not, but in the end he quit the game, donated five million yuan to children in mountainous areas, tapped the electronic wooden fish a few times to accumulate merit, and then re-entered the game.

With so much merit accumulated, you should be able to hit the target every time, right?

Thinking it over, Cheng Cheng opened the gacha pool and subconsciously looked at the character illustrations—

"My wife is so cute, no wonder she's Sammi Nami's daughter! (Thumbs up)"

Wait, why did I say that... never mind.

Unlike Sylvia and Freya, Mu Zimi's character design is more like a candid snapshot, taken casually after school. She looks well-behaved, cute, with a slightly fierce expression, and a little bit silly—in short, she's very adorable.

Because describing a cute girl in words is a troublesome and thankless task, Cheng Cheng chose to directly post the character illustration.

Mu Zimi is the only game character that Cheng Cheng has seen in real life before even drawing her. He doesn't need to worry about the same kind of misleading character design as Freya, where the character design is of an older sister but the model is of a little girl.

Just draw it directly.

First 10-pull, click.

A pure black vortex filled the field of vision, spinning faster and faster, emitting a heavy, low rumble, like the pitch-black sun at the end of all things, before finally exploding into a burst of golden light, instantly filling the entire screen—

Withdrawal!

And it's a 7-yolk egg! One 10-pull and you're at full stars!

Wait a minute... a single 10-pull and you're at max constellations?

No, I didn't say anything like "trading ten years of my life for it," did I? I just donated five million to children in mountainous areas, right? And that's enough for my life?

The effect of accumulating merit is amazing!

Did you learn it? As long as you donate five million to charity before drawing cards, you can get a full set of ten cards in one go! If you've learned it, go donate now!

Muttering to himself, Cheng Cheng opened Mu Zimi's profile:

"The Incarnation of the World-Honored One - Mu Zimi"

"Intimacy: 0 (30% attribute sharing)"

Level: 60

Combat Power: EX

Holy crap, she comes with her own dowry, and it's fully funded?!

Cheng Cheng licked his lips, slightly confused. Freya had also come with a dowry, but she was only level 37. After working so hard for so long, she was only level 61. But Mu Zimi appeared at level 60?

Level 60 is the dividing line between Gold and Legendary!

Could Mu Zimi be a legend? In reality, she seems like just an ordinary, pretty little girl...

He continued scrolling down, clicking on Destiny and Talent.

"First Life - Mu Zimi: Effect unknown; Second Life - Mo Tisi: Effect unknown; Third Life - Demon Emperor Shi: Effect unknown; Fourth Life - Song Le Doll: Effect unknown; Fifth Life - Gu Lai Xi Gu: Effect unknown; Sixth Life - Kasyapa Ruomu: Effect unknown; "

"Inherent Talent - Multi-Headed Monster: Mu Zimi possesses multiple personalities, which can be split into separate individuals (not activated)."

Cheng Cheng: "..."

Good news, I got six constellations in ten consecutive runs; bad news, I have no idea what the effects of constellations are.

Combining inherent talents... does this mean that each constellation is an independent personality?

It seems that Mu Yuan's lie about "absorbing other people's souls and transforming them into her own personality" was only half true... Now, if she were to control Mu Zimi's body, who knows what kind of chaos would ensue in her mind.

Having learned from Freya and the lessons of the past, Cheng Cheng also took Mu Zimi's exclusive weapon, "Overlord Six Blades".

I always felt the name was too domineering, but the effect was still a riddle:

"Exclusive Weapon - Overlord Six Blades: In this life, I ask not of the past, nor seek the future; I only wish to be the supreme ruler of this world!"

I don't understand it, so I can only take it one step at a time.

Thinking this, Cheng Cheng clicked "Start Game," and the world before him began to distort, fade, and recombine...

…………

The car rocked and swayed, and Cheng Cheng opened his eyes.

He saw a dark sky, as if a storm was about to break, and he was sitting in a Maybach, speeding along a highway in the wilderness.

Cheng Cheng: "???"

Shouldn't Mu Zimi be at home with her sister Mu Yuan right now?

Where did I go? Is this still in China?

In the blink of an eye, the Maybach had stopped at a motel. The driver in a black uniform opened the door and asked him to get out.

Cheng Cheng got out of the car in a daze. Just as he was about to ask the driver what was going on, he discovered that the driver had disappeared along with the Maybach.

"Where...is this?"

Cheng Cheng reached out his hand, about to scratch his head, but suddenly froze—what appeared before him was a pair of adult male arms.

It's my own arm.

Didn't I already control Mu Zimi? Why am I still using my own body?

His confusion deepened. Just then, the motel door opened, and a lively young girl skipped out. Her eyes lit up when she saw Cheng Cheng, and she greeted him cheerfully, "Oh, a new guest! Please come in, please come in!"

"Mu Zimi?" Cheng Cheng stared blankly at the girl's familiar face. "It's me, Cheng Cheng, your sister's friend. I saw you at your house earlier."

"What Mu Zimi... You've mistaken me for someone else, big brother."

The girl with long, light green hair tilted her head, her face full of confusion:

"My name is Metaphor... Mu Zimi, who is she?"

Chapter 137, The Locked Room Q Case!

"Power of the Slam, Level Three!"

Staring at the bright, even somewhat glaring, line of large characters on the testing instrument, Cheng Cheng took a deep breath, a hint of doubt on his lips:

What is this?

Upon arriving at this strange motel, Cheng Cheng encountered a girl named "Metis" who looked exactly like Mu Zimi. She immediately led him into the hotel, where he checked in at the front desk and then arrived at this bizarre testing room.

"It's a Power Test that you have to go through before checking into the hotel!" Motis pointed to the badge that read "Power Test Level 9" on her chest and explained, "Although everyone is one family in this fun hotel and there is no distinction between high and low status, there are still class distinctions."

"Class?" Cheng Cheng smirked. "So what exactly is this 'force of binding'..."

“Simply put, it’s an assessment of how comfortable others can be,” Mortis said. “After all, we’re all family, so of course we should decide who gets the best room and who gets the most deductions based on who makes others the most comfortable.”

"What kind of 'coin'? Can this be streamed?"

"It's the hotel's common currency."

As Mortis spoke, her smile suddenly vanished, her brows furrowed, and she murmured softly, "...Fate."

"what?"

“The will of Heaven has manifested once again.” The girl’s expression was unusually solemn. “In order to avoid being discovered by the will of Heaven, from this moment on, in this hotel, all the characters for ‘deduct’ must be changed to ‘Q’, ‘deduct power’ must be changed to ‘Q power’, and ‘deduct coins’ must also be changed to ‘Q coins’.”

"Otherwise, you will be punished by Heaven, and the entire world will be wiped out!"

"Don't just suddenly add random settings! What do you mean by destiny? Did you switch channels?" Cheng Cheng was speechless. "Speaking of which, I don't even know what 'Q coins' are, and suddenly it's changed to 'Q coins'... Strange, why can't I pronounce that word?"

“This is the effect of the will of Heaven, forcibly changing the rules of reality, forcing the whole world to be sunny, cheerful and positive.” Motis sighed. “Ever since Gu Lai Xi Gu moved into the Joy Hotel and launched the Ten-Turn Cleansing Gu on all the heavens and myriad worlds, the will of Heaven has followed. We have no way to fight against it, we can only adapt to it.”

Cheng Cheng: "..."

"In short, Q coins are a universal currency issued based on the power of Q, used to access the hotel's restaurants, laundry rooms, internet cafes, music rooms, and other facilities. Everyone can receive a corresponding number of Q coins every day." Motis pointed to the badge on her chest. "Like me, I can receive nine Q coins a day, while you only have three... just enough for three meals a day."

Cheng Cheng has probably accepted the situation.

In short, this is a world of Q-energy, without any fancy magic, only Q-energy that has been cultivated to its peak!

Cheng Cheng's Q power only yields three Q coins per day, barely enough to cover three meals a day; if he wants to use other facilities, he must sacrifice a meal to accumulate Q coins.

The prerequisite is that Cheng Cheng is willing to stay at this motel.

Although he didn't directly control Mu Zimi after loading the game, but instead arrived in this strange world and encountered Metis, the game system interface still existed—he could switch game characters at any time to go to the game world to find Sylvia, Freya, and others, and he could also exit the game at any time and leave this place.

Before that, Cheng Cheng still wanted to thoroughly investigate Mu Zimi and find out what was really going on in this world.

"That concludes the brief introduction to the hotel!" Motis clapped her hands, her expression brightening again. "Let's take you to meet the other guests!"

Cheng Cheng has no objection.

As soon as the two stepped out of the testing room, a figure that had been waiting for them stood at the door.

The girl wore a wide black robe, her long, light green hair fluttering in the wind, and carried a flask of sake in her hand. Crimson maple leaves slowly drifted down around her, and her delicate and beautiful face held an untamed and rebellious expression, making her seem unlike a human.

"Mu Zimi?" Cheng Cheng asked tentatively.

"What Mu Zimi? She's new here. It's not ladylike to call someone by the wrong name." The girl in black robes tilted her head back and took a sip of wine, her posture relaxed and carefree. "Although you look strange, you don't look like a lady either."

Cheng Cheng: "..."

I knew it. Although this person looks like Mu Zimi, smells like Mu Zimi, and tastes like Mu Zimi, she is definitely not Mu Zimi.

What's going on in this world? Why are there so many different styles of Mu Zimi?

Cheng Cheng was still puzzled, but Motis beside him was on high alert, her small hand trembling slightly as she held Cheng Cheng's, her tone full of vigilance: "Q Heavenly Demon Lord... what are you doing here?"

"You've called me by the wrong name again, little brat." The black-robed girl sneered. "Say it again, I'm not some Q Heavenly Demon Lord, but the Great Love Immortal Lord!"

"Stop joking!" Mo Ti retorted without backing down. "Fang Yuan! We still remember the poem you recited when you achieved the ninth level of the Q Saint."

Cheng Cheng asked curiously, "What poem?"

“Ah, that’s my favorite part.” Da’ai Xian’s eyes gleamed with reminiscence. “At that time, I had just left the Gu Lai Xi Gu World and arrived at this inn… Before that, I was fighting two powerful enemies to the death. I said to my fellow Daoist, Le Tu, beside me: ‘Q Dao has never had a Venerable One. Perhaps I can fill this void.’ After saying that, I recited a poem—”
