Am I A God?

As Zhao Yao was racking his brain to gain more mental energy, the sky lit up and a row of words appeared.

An anonymous player typed, “Try this World Horn and see if it’s good.”

The players nearby started discussing the strange words.

Zhao Yao gazed intensely at the words as his eyes glimmered. “A World Horn? There’s such an item in this virtual game?

He immediately had this idea. If he had this item and he posted sarcastic comments using his alias, how much mental energy would he accumulate? Was he going to level up without doing anything?

Zhao Yao turned to Elizabeth and asked, “Elizabeth, where’s the commerce city of this game? Why can’t I find a place to charge my account? What kind of items are there inside?”

“Commerce City?” Elizabeth said. “Not everyone can access the Commerce City. One has to get through a dungeon and the prize is access to Commerce City. I don’t know what items are available inside.”

Zhao Yao was speechless for a moment. Then he said, “This virtual game… the prize for getting through the dungeon is the Commerce City. Who wants to do such things?”

Elizabeth looked at him and smiled. “Zhao Yao, aren’t you thinking of doing that?”

Zhao was embarrassed by the gaze of the fair-skinned and sweet smiling girl but he recalled she was just a cat. He recovered himself and twisted her head away in annoyance. “Don’t look at me with that face.”

Elizabeth pouted her lips and asked, “Why?”

“Because you created such a pretty face that I’m feeling uneasy. Can’t you choose a simple face like Matcha’s?” Zhao Yao said. “Your current lavish equipment, did you buy it from the Commerce City?”

“Nope,” Elizabeth said. “My costume was given to me by friends. To get through the Commerce City’s dungeon is extremely difficult. Very few people have managed to do that.”

“Ah? It’s that difficult?” Zhao Yao frowned.

Shadow Wings charged, pointed at Zhao Yao and exclaimed, “Pervert! What are you thinking of doing to Sweetie?”

Zhao Yao turned his head and said, “It’s you again.”

Elizabeth, whose head was being pressed down on by Zhao Yao, turned her head and smiled at Shadow Wings. “It’s alright, Shadow Wings. We’re just fooling around.”

Shadow Wings shouted, “Elizabeth, do you feel threatened by him? Don’t worry, I’ll protect you!”

Elizabeth shook her head and said, “No, we knew each other very well in reality and he often touches my head as well.”

Shadow Wings almost broke down as he looked at Elizabeth. “They know each other well and he touches her head often!” Shadow Wings said in shock. “Perhaps… is he your boyfriend?!”

“How could he be my boyfriend?” Elizabeth giggled and her body trembled. After suppressing her smile, she said, “He’s actually my boss. He gives me food, lodging, and a salary.”

“Boss… boss?” Shadow Wings looked dumbfounded at both of them and thought, “Food, lodging, salary, and he touches her head often… Are Sweetie and this man having that kind of relationship?!”

“My angel!”

Elizabeth asked in astonishment, “What’s wrong with him?”

“Don’t bother,” Zhao Yao said. “Where’s the Commerce City’s dungeon? I want to see what’s available in the Commerce City.”

Zhao Yao found out the location of the dungeon via Elizabeth’s connections.

…

Zhao Yao squatted at the entrance of the Beginner’s Village as he discussed with Elizabeth about the dungeon.

Four men were at a nearby corner, extending out their heads to peep at Zhao Yao and Elizabeth.

One of them said, “What’re we going to do? We’ve delayed this for a long time. If we don’t meet up with Zhao Yao, he’s going to be suspicious.”

“Big brother, let’s exit this game. I don’t like it.”

“How can we do that? Zhao Yao’s not an idiot. How can we quit like this?”

“What shall we do? Let’s find a helmet so that Zhao Yao can’t see our faces.”

“The best that we could obtain was a grass hat. Where’s the helmet that you talked about?”

Ares licked his hands as he said, “This is frustrating! What are we going to do?”

Lucifer said, “Let’s be honest with Zhao Yao. At most, he’ll beat us up. Let’s just bear it and it’ll be over…”

Seeing Lucifer grinning ear to ear, Ares said angrily, “It’s all your fault! Look at our pathetic state. How are we going to face Zhao Yao!”

Ares, Lucifer, Fūjin, and Rakshasa’s game avatars were exactly the same.

The male avatars that they created looked 70-80% like the real Zhao Yao. Their names were called Guang Yuzhui One, Guang Yuzhui Two, Guang Yuzhui Three and Guang Yuzhui Four.

Lucifer said indignantly, “All of you agreed it was a good idea and now you’re blaming me?”

Ares sighed and said, “What are we going to do?”

…

Two hours later, Zhao Yao brought dozens of his supercats to an abandoned temple.

Elizabeth explained, “This is the Scripture Library’s dungeon. The Commerce City is at the deepest end of the dungeon. If we can get through it, then we can purchase items.”

“What is the Commerce City selling? I’m intrigued.” Zhao Yao felt excited.

Elizabeth said, “I heard that the dungeon is very hard to conquer but it’s best for a lone ranger to go in.”

“Is that so?” Zhao Yao walked forward and said, “Let me try. All of you wait for me outside.”

When Zhao Yao stepped into the temple, the clear blue sky became dark and cloudy. A thunderstorm seemed imminent.

A row of large words appeared before him.

“You are entering the Scripture Library’s dungeon. You may obtain powerful items within but it’s extremely dangerous. Are you sure you want to enter?”

Zhao Yao confirmed his choice and another row of words appeared.

“As the items inside are extremely powerful, if the items are misused, they may cause serious harm to the user.”

“To filter out players who are unable to use the items wisely, all damages sustained in the Scripture Library’s dungeon can be healed by money.”

A talisman appeared before Zhao Yao. The writing on it said that the talisman was to be worn to start the money healing module.”

“The most powerful equipment is account charging equipment and the players that are the most appropriate for the powerful items are the rich…”

“The game designer… is he extremely poor?”
