"I admit that I'm naturally not interested in rules. I only care about how to get the results I want. As for what method I use and what kind of trouble it will bring, it has never been my focus," Loki spread his hands. "Who asked me to always have the power to ignore rules?"
The little boy nodded when he heard the words. "God of Mischief and Lies, your personality is very suitable for playing Texas Hold 'em. Let's play a round when we have time."
"I'm not going to compete with the hen laying eggs. Even if I win, you'll suspect me of cheating." Loki said as he opened the refrigerator and found a bottle of beer inside. But because the city had been without power for some time, the beer had already become room temperature.
The little boy reached out, and Loki put the beer in his hand. When he took it back, the beer was already cold, and there was a layer of fine water droplets on the glass bottle.
"Cool!" Loki whistled. "Did you just change the code of this beer in the background? When will I learn this trick of yours? Then I don't have to show up in the dungeon and be set as the gatekeeper boss by you. "
"I'm not targeting you. It's just that your power is too strong for this dungeon. It needs to be adjusted. Only in this way can the game be balanced," the little boy said with a blank expression.
"Balance?" Loki's face showed a faint smile. "I'm not the only one with data overflow in this dungeon, right? You leave that guy with his own cheating device alone, and you still want to talk about balance with me? Don't tell me you don't know anything about Kronos's little tricks behind my back. "
"We had reached an agreement at the beginning of the game that every deity would bestow an ability upon their favored agent. So far, all the actions of Kronos and his agent in the game are within the rules." The boy said solemnly.
"Bullshit!" Loki snorted, opened the beer, and took a sip. "In the words of the white-haired brother downstairs, I can smell the dirty smell from ten miles away. It's because Kronos helped you make the game time system that you turned a blind eye."
The little boy did not deny it. "It's not just Kronos. Many people have contributed to this process. That's why we set up an organizing committee to jointly manage these game worlds. Without their help, I can't create so many realistic and charming worlds. Speaking of which, I once sent you an invitation to help me design the main quest, but you didn't accept it."
"I'm a busy man. I don't have this free time. Aren't you worried that I will mess up your beloved game world?" Loki pretended.
"I can give you a certain amount of freedom to exert your creativity. I'll be the final check. I'm confident that nothing will go wrong," the little boy said. "I know what you're worried about. I can also come forward and persuade the other members of the organizing committee to try to accept you. Of course, given the unpleasant past between you two, it's a little difficult to write off the grudges between you two, but at least it's not a problem to maintain a cooperative state on this matter. You can also use this as an opportunity to repair your relationship with them."
Loki was a little annoyed that his worries were exposed, but the little boy's final promise made his eyes light up again. He looked quite tempted. Just as he was about to agree, his expression changed again, and he said with a grin, "I refuse. Do you really think I care what other gods think of me?"
The little boy was not surprised by this. He just said lightly, "What a pity."
"It's not a pity." Loki scratched his chin. "If you didn't show up here tonight, I really wouldn't know that you also have your eyes on him."
"I'm only here because I received a major error report."
"Tsk, tsk, tsk. What did I just say? Don't compete with hens laying eggs. I won't compete with you in Texas hold 'em, and you'd better not lie in front of the God of Lies."
Loki grinned, but he could only smile halfway.
"Damn, how long has it been? My second avatar has been killed!"
…
Zhang Heng silently memorized a few murals on the wall, then turned around to leave. However, he stopped the next moment.
He walked to the only piece of furniture in the room, reached out, and picked up the kerosene lamp on it. Almost at the same time, a system prompt rang in his ear.
[Game Item Found – Old Kerosene Lamp (Unidentified)]
Zhang Heng felt that the position of the kerosene lamp was a little too deliberate. It happened to be at the golden point of the whole room, almost exactly. Of course, if one didn't have a strong sense of observation and spatial awareness, they would probably only notice it after measuring it step by step with a ruler.
Zhang Heng, on the other hand, could see the abnormality of the position of the lamp with his naked eye. Hence, he obtained a game item while chasing after Sauk. Zhang Heng picked up the kerosene lamp and roughly looked at it, but he couldn't see anything special about it. Right now, this game item was still unidentified. Zhang Heng had never seen Sauk use it before, so he couldn't guess its purpose. So, he could only put it in his backpack for the time being.
After that, he left the hut, came to the haystack, and noticed the footprints on the ground.
Because of Sauk's eccentric temperament, she had almost no contact with the people in the village. She had been living alone in a corner of the village. Hence, the footprints on the ground were left by her alone, making it particularly convenient for Zhang Heng to chase after her. Zhang Heng could tell at a glance which footprints were fresh.
And these fresh footprints led all the way to the woods behind the hut, which was also the direction Sauk had fled to.
Zhang Heng chased after Sauk with his rifle. The woods were quiet at night, and only scattered moonlight shone on the ground. The huge shadows of the trees covered most of the place, making it very difficult to see. However, this didn't affect Zhang Heng because he was wearing the Filter Lens, and he had a panoramic view of his surroundings.
With this Grade-D game, he didn't have to worry about Sauk's sneak attack. Besides, he had been delayed in the hut for a while, so he didn't slow down at all. When he reached two pine trees that were almost touching each other, Zhang Heng suddenly stopped.
At this moment, Sauk was holding her shotgun, hiding behind a rock fifty meters away. She pricked up her ears, seemingly waiting for something.
