Abyss Game: I am covered with cheats

Another cry of sorrowful grief echoed. Gu Mian snapped back to reality and said, "Run! As long as we're alive, we can always make a comeback. That monster probably won't chase us out of the city square. Let's shake it off first, then figure things out later..."

Xu Tong didn't hear a word Gu Mian said. Having experienced the power of 'Unparalleled' just now, he couldn't suppress his fighting spirit any longer.

He exerted force with his feet, and his entire body shot out like a projectile, enhanced by the flesh and blood. He closed in on the monster and swung his left claw towards the sky.

The six-headed tentacle monster that had terrified them moments ago was instantly reduced to countless pieces of flesh and blood, raining down on the ground and staining the polluted earth red.

With just one move, he instantly killed the monster!

What's going on!

Gu Mian didn't have time to react before Xu Tong casually plucked the key from the sky.

The moment he obtained the three keys, Xu Tong's main quest changed again in his vision.

"Main Quest in Progress: Destroy the 'Gate'"

"Main Quest Updated: Close the 'Gate'"

Two main quests were presented to Xu Tong, seemingly leading to different endings.

However, Xu Tong didn't yet know what kind of ending differences pursuing different main quests would bring. He simply walked up to Gu Mian and extended his right hand.

Gu Mian cautiously grasped his hand, and Xu Tong easily lifted him from the ground.

"You... what is that thing?" Gu Mian's eyes were fixed on Xu Tong's left claw, his voice trembling slightly.

Xu Tong lowered his head. "Oh, you mean this? I just completed a side quest and got this thing. It's pretty useful."

He wasn't exactly lying, as it was indeed related to a side quest, even though that mass of flesh and blood couldn't be equipped in the side quest.

Gu Mian gasped when he heard Xu Tong's words.

When did he find a side quest? When did Xu Tong trigger it?

So, when he left the group earlier, he went to do a side quest?

Gu Mian then realized that, in this light, the entire difficult-level instance was completed by Xu Tong alone.

He stopped the subway, found the 'Gate,' and even collected all three keys himself.

They didn't even need the other three people!

Who exactly is the powerhouse?

Is this really a multiplayer instance? He completed it all by himself. Are you sure this isn't a single-player instance?

*Ding*—

A strange sound effect rang out. Xu Tong turned around and saw a portal opened by the Many-Eyed Woman in front of him.

"Let's go through the door first," Xu Tong said. "We can talk about everything else later."

Gu Mian didn't dare to disobey, as Xu Tong seemed to be the one in control now.

But when he approached the portal, he seemed to be blocked by some invisible force, unable to take another step closer.

"Well, it seems only I can go through this door..." Xu Tong patted his shoulder. "It's okay, leave the rest to me. The instance should be over soon."

With that, he walked into the portal in front of him. After Xu Tong's figure disappeared from his sight, the portal closed in front of Gu Mian as quickly as possible.

Everything around him fell silent. Gu Mian's gaze landed on the six-headed tentacle monster that had been chopped into pieces.

"Damn it..."

He muttered.

"Is he really a seventh-level newbie player?"

—

Passing through the portal, Xu Tong arrived in front of the 'Gate.'

"It really is a Rubik's Cube. The description in that recording was quite accurate," Xu Tong held the three different-colored keys in his hand. "But how do I use these three keys to close this door?"

*Ding*—

Another portal opened, and the Many-Eyed Woman gracefully walked up and stood before Xu Tong.

"May I ask a question?"

"Please do."

Xu Tong asked, "What is this door used to seal?"

The Many-Eyed Woman calmly replied, "It is used to seal things that should not exist in this world."

Hearing the Executor say "things that should not exist in this world," Xu Tong was immediately very curious about what was behind the door.

"So what are they?"

The Many-Eyed Woman glanced at Xu Tong. "Even if I told you, you wouldn't understand. So, how about a different question? Do you want to destroy this door, or completely close it?"

Xu Tong immediately transformed into a curious child, "What's the difference between the two options?"

"Destroying this door means there will never be another chance to open it; but if you completely close it, perhaps one day you will change your mind and can reopen it. That's the only difference."

Isn't that the same as saying nothing?

Xu Tong thought for a moment, then said, "What if I open the door right now?"

"The things inside the door will be released, but I don't think that would be a particularly good choice for you." The Many-Eyed Woman turned into a riddler, "As for the reason, I can't tell you. At least, I recommend you don't think about opening this 'Gate.'"

Xu Tong pondered for a moment, then nodded and approached the Rubik's Cube in front of him.

The closer he got, the more Xu Tong felt like he heard something in his ears.

[Your ears have picked up a strange sound, so your ears have expanded their hearing, capturing the words within, the existence behind the 'Gate' wants to make a deal with you]

[After careful consideration, your brain has chosen to accept this deal]

At first glance, it doesn't seem to be a problem.

But Xu Tong froze in place.

Wait, what deal?

My brain made a deal with an existence that I don't know what it is, right in front of me.

I don't even know what the deal is!

Is that reasonable?!

Before Xu Tong could react, the three keys in his hand slowly floated up and merged into the constantly rotating Rubik's Cube.

*Clack clack clack*—

A series of strange sounds, the Rubik's Cube in front of him actually stopped.

The eight cubes, similar to a 2x2 Rubik's Cube, separated and recombined, actually forming the shape of a 'Gate.'

*Whoosh*—

A gust of evil wind blew, and a huge phantom instantly emerged from the distorted space behind the door.

Weird and incomprehensible syllables poured into Xu Tong's mind little by little. Although he wouldn't directly explode from madness, having these incomprehensible words crammed into his brain all at once still gave him an unspeakable feeling of foreignness.

[Your brain spent 0.27 seconds to fully understand this mysterious ancient language and translate it into a language you can understand]

"Hahaha!" With a hearty laugh, the huge phantom appeared in the air, a distorted face appearing in Xu Tong's sight. "I'm finally out! Those hateful beings above the stars, you won't be able to trick me into prison this time. You will pay for what you have done!

"I am the great Dominator of Space, trying to trap me in the shackles of time, this will be your biggest mistake!"

The Many-Eyed Woman's eyes showed a bit of ruthlessness, seemingly with great dissatisfaction with the existence of the phantom.

But the phantom didn't care, and instead focused its attention on Xu Tong. "Human, although you possess a part of the bodies of those beings above the stars, your choice is correct. The deal between us can be preserved. I hope you can stay sane until the day we meet again."

After saying that, with another burst of laughter, the phantom disappeared into the air, whereabouts unknown.

And the separated Rubik's Cube returned to its original appearance, but this time the Rubik's Cube disappeared directly, without staying in this city's ruins any longer.

[Main Quest Completed]

[All Tasks Completed]

[Preparing to leave the Abyss World]

Seeing a series of messages appearing in his mind, the Many-Eyed Woman walked over and asked Xu Tong, "Although I know this is my presumption, I still want to know the Lord's thoughts.

"What kind of deal did you make with this pathetic being?"

Xu Tong said with a heavy face, "Do you want to hear the truth?"

The Many-Eyed Woman nodded slightly, "Yes."

"The truth is..."

Xu Tong spread his hands, "I don't know."

He really didn't know what the deal was, and it was estimated that only the phantom that escaped and his own brain knew what the deal was.

The problem is...

He doesn't know what his brain knows.

This is too abstract!

"I understand," the Many-Eyed Woman seemed to have read a different meaning from Xu Tong's words. "Since it is the Lord's will, then as an Executor, I should not ask too much. I hope that the next time I see you, your existence will be more complete."

"Hey, wait!" Xu Tong pointed to the existence covering his left hand. "What about this thing? I quite like it."

Seeing this, the Many-Eyed Woman put on the posture of a maid, placing her hands in front of her. "It is impossible to carry this thing out directly, but I can do what I can."

As soon as the voice fell, the flesh and blood covering Xu Tong's arm immediately began to change shape, directly turning into a twenty-sided dice.

[Name: Flesh Dice]

[Type: Equipment-Effect]

[Quality: ???]

[Usage Requirements: Level 15 or above, limited to owning and using player: Xu Tong]

[Effect: Roll the dice once to obtain part of the Outer God's power. The number rolled represents the multiple of power obtained (limited to one use per instance)]

[Evaluation: A dice containing unknown power. No one can be sure what kind of earth-shattering power will be brought about when you roll a 20]

Damn, it can really be taken away!

Xu Tong quickly put the dice into his backpack. "Thank you, I would have been a little troubled without you."

The Many-Eyed Woman bowed slightly.

"It is the honor of us Executors to be able to contribute to the Lord."

After saying this, Xu Tong completely disappeared from the Many-Eyed Woman's sight and left the instance.

*Ding*—

Another portal opened, and the Insect Girl, who had intersected with Xu Tong in the previous instance, came out and asked the Many-Eyed Woman, "Have you seen him?"

"I have seen him," the Many-Eyed Woman nodded slightly. "More outstanding than I thought."

There was no expression on Insect Girl's face, but her tone contained a bit of pride. "Awesome, right? I met him first."

It's like a mother pointing to an excellent child and saying: "Awesome, right? He's mine!"

The Many-Eyed Woman just closed her eyes and threw out a trump card.

"He had a physiological reaction when he faced me."

Insect Girl was stunned.
