Mini World Game Console-Chapter 821 - 822: Voluntary Surrender
"Why did you come too?"
From the doorway that transformed the golden waterfall into a silver screen, a red-haired beauty emerged.
She turned her head to look behind her, a hint of dissatisfaction in her tone.
"Because we're good~sisters~dear~"
A giggling blue-haired beauty ran out from the Gate of Silver Radiance, hugged the red-haired beauty from behind, and nuzzled her cheek against the red-haired beauty's face.
Two chairs materialized on the silvery ground. The blue-haired sister sat down, clinging to the red-haired sister's arm. Their intimate behavior made Ren Suo's blood boil as he watched from beyond the screen!
He even started to feel... envious of those two chairs!
The red-haired sister was barefoot, wearing footed black silk pantyhose, a black miniskirt, and a black half-shirt. This attire revealed her snowy white midriff and her slender waist, which could be encircled with one hand. She was so enchanting and bewitching that she seemed capable of leading all living beings astray.
Ren Suo even activated "Insight into the Mortal World" and instantly engraved her graceful figure into his heart, unable to shift his gaze.
The blue-haired sister was just as stirring. Unlike the red-haired sister's bewitching style, she dressed more flamboyantly. She wore a decorative collar with bells, a gothic corset-style black top, and an ultra-short skirt paired with metallic punk high boots, exuding a youthful beauty with a hint of decadence.
One was a fairy, the other Forbidden Fruit.
Although one had red hair and the other blue, and their appearances were slightly different, Ren Suo quickly confirmed they were indeed sisters—at least, their figures were on the same sisterly tier.
Watching these two new characters, Ren Suo couldn't even bring himself to continue the dialogue and just stared foolishly at his phone screen.
Actually, Ren Suo was not such an easy guy. After all, he was a college graduate from a "monk's specialty program" and had long since completed his enlightenment and acquired resistance through various visual learning materials.
Nowadays, the internet was flooded with beauties. Celebrities and internet stars emerged one after another, and photo editing technologies were so advanced that it was almost impossible for Ren Suo to become infatuated.
After all, humans all have two eyes, one nose, and one mouth. No matter how beautiful, that's all there is to it.
Ren Suo had always thought his resistance was high, and indeed, his experiences over the years had proven so. But upon seeing these two sisters in the game, Ren Suo's defenses collapsed instantaneously, and he fell into an inescapable state of arousal!
When the game's perspective shifted to the Supreme Supreme's hood and Ren Suo could barely see the two sisters, he finally came to his senses. The phone then SMACKED him in the face.
My nose hurts like hell.
Ren Suo exhaled deeply, placed his phone face down on the table, and went to the restroom to wash his face, letting the cold tap water cool the boiling blood in his veins.
He needed to seriously consider what had just happened.
Me, Ren Suo, a hardcore player, actually fell in love at first sight with two game characters?!
Ren Suo, who believed all love at first sight was driven by lust, could clearly distinguish that what surged through him wasn't just desire, but also an unshakeable love.
How could this be?!
Ren Suo felt as if his entire worldview was crumbling.
Though he flirted around, had five girlfriends, and didn't let go of any of them, even desiring a free and happy life in modern society, Ren Suo knew he was still a pure-hearted good guy.
I'm not that superficial, not some hedonistic automated pile driver, definitely not!
But what just happened?
I uncontrollably fell for those two sisters in the game!
Ren Suo knew nothing about them, understood nothing. Merely seeing their beauty, he had fallen for them like the dwarves for Snow White.
Already juggling five relationships, and I'm thinking of straying again?
Ren Suo, oh Ren Suo, you're not that kind of person!
That's right, I'm definitely not that kind of person!
Something must be wrong somewhere; it definitely isn't me.
Ren Suo took a deep breath and began to clear his name... no, to find the truth.
Just now, wasn't the Supreme Supreme very serious about welcoming these two sisters?
The Supreme Supreme, designated by Ren Suo, was a Super Strong Being capable of saving the world in 2049. This was a future where Fourth-Stage Cultivators were as common as dogs, and Seventh-Stage Cultivators roamed everywhere.
The Supreme Supreme possessed All Kinds of Divine Abilities, mastered countless Laws, and a single strike from him could unleash a cataclysmic Star Shattering Strike that spanned the Milky Way Galaxy!
Anyone the Supreme Supreme was wary of had to be a Super Strong Being too!
If these two sisters are Super Strong Beings, then their soul-stirring attire might very well be a kind of Spellcasting Tool!
Could it be... they specialize in the erosion of the soul? Did they use their irresistible charm to make everyone who saw them involuntarily fall in love with them? Were they Enchanting Cultivators?
The more Ren Suo thought about it, the more it seemed plausible. Otherwise, he couldn't explain why he had fallen head over heels at first sight.
I'm quite a devoted man, you know.
Thinking this, Ren Suo couldn't help but marvel at the advanced martial powers of 2049.
Even through a screen, just one glance had ensnared Ren Suo, which was a testament to how powerful these two sisters were.
And there are also mysterious and unfathomable experts like the Galactic Songstress and the Heavenly Maiden Sovereign...
The world 30 years from now... isn't it too terrifying?
Having composed himself, Ren Suo returned to the living room, picked up his phone, and saw that the perspective was still on the Supreme Supreme's hood.
This guy is so obstructive! Hurry up and move so I can see the beauties!
That was the first thought that popped into Ren Suo's head, which he then promptly extinguished. This is good. I mustn't betray my girlfriends. I can't have a spiritual affair. I must be a loyal boyfriend.
Ren Suo didn't know if the game console was protecting him or if the Supreme Supreme was deliberately blocking the view. In any case, he could no longer see the red-haired and blue-haired sisters. He could only identify the speaker through the avatar in the dialogue box.
The red-haired sister said, "I remember we agreed, at least six times a month. Let's ignore the mission period for now. I won't hold it against you. But before you set up the Spatial-Temporal Chaos Array, Supreme Supreme, you were nowhere to be found. Tell me, how many times do you owe?"
The blue-haired sister chimed in, "Exactly! You big liar, how could you owe our sister so many times?"
The red-haired sister snapped, "Shut up."
The blue-haired sister whined, "Sis, I'm speaking up for you! How can you yell at me? BOO HOO."
The red-haired sister retorted, "You get to enjoy yourself every single night. Don't act so innocent after taking advantage."
The Supreme Supreme finally spoke, "Blood Lotus Sect Master, Dimensional Empress, shall we discuss important matters first?"
Indeed!
Just as Ren Suo anticipated, these two sisters were indeed important figures!
One is the Blood Lotus Sect Master! Could it be that Cultivation Sects have finally appeared in the Solar System by 2049?
The other is the Dimensional Empress! Literally, is she an empress who controls a dimension?
The red-haired sister, the Blood Lotus Sect Master, said indifferently, "One thing at a time, Supreme Supreme. Let's settle our accounts first."
The blue-haired sister, the Dimensional Empress, laughed, her voice like wind chimes. "Hehe, if it weren't for the space-time barrier between us, my sister would have already rushed over to demand payment from you, you big swindler!"
The Supreme Supreme seemed somewhat helpless, saying, "I owe about... seven times?"
The Blood Lotus Sect Master sneered, "Seventy times."
The Supreme Supreme shook his head repeatedly. "No, it can't be that many. There's no way I could owe you seventy times!"
The Blood Lotus Sect Master asked, "Haven't you heard of 'owe one, pay back ten'?"
The Supreme Supreme exclaimed, "Never heard of it! You're being unreasonable!"
"That's right, I am being unreasonable, because you were wrong first. Have you forgotten that once you violate our agreement, I have the final say? Or... are you unwilling to accept?"
The game suddenly fell silent for several seconds. If the Dimensional Empress hadn't continued to laugh, Ren Suo would have thought the game had frozen.
Ren Suo could still only see the Supreme Supreme's hood.
Although he could see nothing, Ren Suo suddenly had a flash of intuition. The Blood Lotus Sect Master is definitely doing something! Absolutely!
The Supreme Supreme's reaction confirmed Ren Suo's guess. "Alright... but the compensation will have to wait until after I return."
The Blood Lotus Sect Master asked, "How do you plan to repay it? All at once?"
The Supreme Supreme shook his head again and again. "Impossible! Let's do installments. We'll break it into seventy installments..."
The Blood Lotus Sect Master interjected, "Seven installments, ten times each, to be cleared within a month. If you fail, the debt doubles next month. During the repayment period, I'll count it as you fulfilling the current month's quota. Consider it a bargain."
The Supreme Supreme protested, "Blood Lotus Sect Master, you're being too oppressive!"
The Blood Lotus Sect Master pressed, "So, do you accept or not?"
The Future Communication Office fell silent once more. Obviously, the Blood Lotus Sect Master is casting a spell again!
The Supreme Supreme conceded, "Fine."
However, that simple word "fine" was full of resentment, injustice, and a sense of bearing humiliation. Clearly, it was a promise made under duress!
Ceding power, humiliating the nation, paying reparations, and ceding territory—it was just like that!
The victor of this round is the Blood Lotus Sect Master!
Ren Suo was now certain. The Blood Lotus Sect Master must possess some kind of mental charm ability!
For the Supreme Supreme to accept such a humiliating agreement, his thinking must have been influenced!
When the game went silent, it meant the Blood Lotus Sect Master was casting her spell!
This must be a Charm Spell that even the Supreme Supreme, the strongest protagonist of all time, couldn't resist, Ren Suo thought.
It's only natural that I, watching from behind a screen, would also be affected.
Thinking this, Ren Suo's guilt vanished. He looked at the Supreme Supreme's silhouette with pity.
What kind of logic is it to repay ten times for owing once? I don't know what the Supreme Supreme has to supply to the Blood Lotus Sect Master every month. But now that he has to repay tenfold, won't he suffer a major loss when he returns to 2049?
But that's none of my business. I'm just a bystander enjoying the show.
Through these information-packed Future Communications, Ren Suo slowly began to piece together a picture of the future, thirty years from now.
Blood Lotus Sect Master, Galactic Songstress, Crystal Maiden...
Suddenly, Ren Suo began to look forward to the future.
After the Supreme Supreme agreed to the humiliating terms, the Blood Lotus Sect Master turned to the Dimensional Empress. "What about you? Do you have any scores to settle with him?"
"Of course! This big swindler owes me decades' worth of debt and has only repaid one so far. He has no intention of fulfilling all his promises."
The Dimensional Empress kept humming, "Wait for this big swindler to come back so I can settle the score with him! Big swindler, big swindler, big swindler..."
What sort of code is this?
How can debts be repaid 'one' by 'one'?
Could 'one' refer to one million US dollars? I think there were settings like that in the Gambling Saint movies.
The slang of 2049 is so hard to guess.
The Supreme Supreme finally got to the main point. "I need your power."
The Blood Lotus Sect Master said coldly, "I expected as much. If you didn't need help, you wouldn't even bother contacting us."
The Dimensional Empress declared, "Big swindler, Sister is angry! The consequences will be grave!"
The Supreme Supreme sighed. "But you two are the only ones I can rely on."
The Blood Lotus Sect Master sneered, "Is that so? But I recall the recipients of Future Communication are chosen randomly, aren't they?"
"There are no coincidences in this world, only inevitabilities disguised as coincidences," the Supreme Supreme stated. "I believe this communication was destined to be with you, and with her, because of me, because of Destiny."
Nonsense! I was the one directing you for this Future Communication! Ren Suo cursed inwardly while taking notes.
Sure enough, the Blood Lotus Sect Master finally relented. "What do I need to do?"
The Supreme Supreme replied, "Do what you wish to do. Your actions will automatically affect the Destiny of 1999."
The Blood Lotus Sect Master said indifferently, "What I want to do right now is make you repay your debt."
The Dimensional Empress cried out, "Me too, me too! You big liar, hurry up and fulfill your promise!"
The Supreme Supreme feigned a sigh. "Unfortunately, the barriers of space and time lie between us. I simply cannot reach you, let alone repay the debt."
The Blood Lotus Sect Master snorted, apparently seeing through the Supreme Supreme's excuse.
Suddenly, the Dimensional Empress said, "Sister, let's dance! I just choreographed a new dance, and it's beautiful."
Dance?
Super Strong Beings dance too?
However, the Dimensional Empress's personality seems rather independent and whimsical, so it's normal for her to suggest this.
But the Blood Lotus Sect Master is clearly a solitary, proud, and domineering female expert. How could she be willing to dance—
The Blood Lotus Sect Master replied, "Alright."
Ren Suo was taken aback for a moment.
Then, music started playing on his phone. Listening for a moment, he realized it was a song by the Galactic Songstress!
The screen's perspective suddenly moved forward, and then Ren Suo saw—
The entire screen was filled with the Supreme Supreme's back.
Ren Suo couldn't even catch a glimpse of the scenery!
In that instant, it felt as if a string in Ren Suo's mind snapped.
DAMMIT!
Can't the perspective shift?
I really want to see them dance! They're so beautiful; their dancing must be incredibly beautiful too! BOO HOO HOO—
I'd even be willing to have a spiritual affair for a few minutes! Just let me see! Let me watch!
I want to complain about this game! Supreme Supreme, get lost! Stop blocking my view of the beautiful girls!
However, after Ren Suo struggled for a while, the perspective remained stubbornly fixed on the Supreme Supreme's back, unmoving.
The Supreme Supreme was like a selfish child, hogging the view and unwilling to share with Ren Suo!
Until the music stopped, Ren Suo still couldn't get his wish, couldn't feast his eyes.
I feel like I've lost several billion.
At that moment, the Blood Lotus Sect Master's voice rang out, "Come back early. I'm waiting for you to repay your debts. If you return late, then those seven installments of debt won't be spread over one month. Instead, they'll have to be repaid consecutively over seven days, settling all seventy instances."
The Dimensional Empress laughed cheerfully. "You big liar! When you come back, it'll be time to fulfill your promises, right? It's been decades, and you've only fulfilled one. That's just too much!"
The silver glow faded, the beauties departed, and the Future Communication Office returned to normal.
Ren Suo suddenly felt an emptiness in his heart.
Even if he denied it a thousand times, he couldn't deceive his own heart—he had truly fallen for these two stunning, fleetingly seen beauties at first sight, the kind of infatuation that was deep and absolute.
The moment he saw them, a thousand tender feelings surged in his heart.
What in the world has happened to me...
With mixed emotions, Ren Suo browsed the results of this Future Communication.
"The Blood Lotus Sect Master's Iron Law: The Destiny of 1999 is under the jurisdiction of the Blood Lotus Sect Master's Iron Law. This chapter's open recruitment will remove seven tags. The remaining tags will become rare, guaranteeing a Seek Visit for High-Tier Cultivators."
"The Dimensional Empress's Indolence: The Destiny of 1999 gains a boost from the Dimensional Empress's Indolence. The longer the open recruitment (in real time), the higher the quality of the Elite Cultivators recruited. (Minimum activation time is 1 hour; maximum effective time is 72 hours.)"
As expected, they're all related to 'Open Recruitment,' Ren Suo thought, not surprised at all. The most important thing in 'Cataclysm of Tomorrow' was the number of Elite Cultivators.
In this cosmic war where the Solar System was the chessboard, Elite Cultivators were the pieces Ren Suo could control. Naturally, the more, the better.
"However, to fully utilize these two bonuses, it looks like there won't be much to do for these three days," Ren Suo murmured, lying on the couch.
"You can also play with me."
Soft hair brushed Ren Suo's face as Luna squeezed her pretty face between him and his phone, blinking at him like two twinkling stars.
Ren Suo instinctively turned off his phone and sat up to look at Luna. "It's so late, why aren't you asleep... Wait a second, Luna, why aren't you a cat?"
Before him was not Luna the Cat Demon, but Luna in human form!
But just a few hours ago, Ren Suo had dutifully served Luna for half an hour. By then, Luna should have used up her time in human form, right?
How could she transform again after only a few hours?
Luna tilted her head and sat beside him, asking, "Do you prefer Luna in cat form? That makes sense. In human form, there's no fur to lick. You humans just lick lips..."
"I like both. As long as it's Luna, I won't dislike it," Ren Suo stroked Luna's blue hair and asked, "But weren't you only able to transform for half an hour?"
"Hehe, my cultivation these past few days has finally borne fruit."
Luna snuggled up to Ren Suo, laughing. "Luna's transformation time has now extended to forty minutes!"
"But I didn't tell them. I pretended I could still only transform for thirty minutes, so I can sneak an extra ten minutes to play with Suosuo at night! Hehe, isn't Luna smart?"
Ren Suo was taken aback.
What? You actually cultivate?
Suddenly, Ren Suo began to doubt this world. Luna eats until she's full, then sleeps; sleeps until she's full, then plays; plays until she's tired, then eats; eats until she's full, then sleeps again—where does she find the time to cultivate?
Even Lin Xianyu is more diligent than Luna!
Or is it that eating, drinking, playing, and making merry *is* cultivation for Luna?
Could this be the benefit of having a Moon Chanter clone?
It was then that Ren Suo deeply understood what Rational Ren Suo had said: "I never realized how many opportunities I wasted to achieve freedom in life..."
Ren Suo couldn't help feeling a twinge of jealousy towards Luna. However, when he looked at Luna's expectant expression, the jealousy vanished, replaced by a deep sense of guilt.
He hugged Luna tightly and whispered, "Luna, you're really smart. I like you so much."
"Hehe, Luna likes Suosuo so much too." Luna savored Ren Suo's affection and said, "Is there a reward?"
"What reward does Luna want?" Ren Suo smiled, thinking that if Luna said she wanted ice cream right now, he would immediately rush to the convenience store to buy it for her.
"I want a litter of kittens!"
Luna wriggled excitedly in Ren Suo's arms. If she still had her cat tail and ears, they would surely be wagging. "At least five! Ten would be best!"
Ren Suo blinked and, with some difficulty, shook his head. "Could we choose something else?"
Luna pouted. "You promised to be doubly nice to me this month, and now you won't even give me the reward you agreed to..."
Ren Suo already felt guilty, and Luna's words made it even harder to bear. Desperate to make amends through action, Ren Suo considered for a moment and said, "But Luna, until you can perfectly transform into a human, we can't have kittens."
"I'm not listening, I'm not listening!" Luna buried her head in his chest, sulking.
"In the future, when you can perfectly transform into a human, then we'll have a litter of kittens, how about that?" Ren Suo promised, referring to a distant future.
Luna lifted her head to look at Ren Suo, her bright eyes sparkling with anticipation. "You promise? It's a deal? Whoever breaks their promise is a big liar!"
"It's a promise, a deal. I will definitely keep my word," Ren Suo said earnestly. "I won't lie to Luna."
Ren Suo wasn't flustered at all. First, it was debatable whether Luna could ever fully transform into a human. Even if she did, could a shape-shifting Cat Demon and a normal human even procreate?
Even if they could, by that time, Ren Suo would surely be a High-Tier Cultivator, with an extremely low chance of reproduction—not just with a Cat Demon, but possibly even with other human females.
According to internal network reports, the fertility rate of High-Tier Cultivators would plummet significantly. The probability of Fourth-Stage Cultivators having children might drop to an almost inconceivable level, with even in vitro fertilization being highly unlikely to succeed.
It was only because the number of Fourth-Stage Cultivators was currently small; otherwise, this would have become a social problem sooner or later.
But Ren Suo knew that by 2049, Fourth-Stage Cultivators would be as common as dirt. Since they would live and work far longer than ordinary people, it would be worrying if their reproductive abilities weren't limited. Perhaps even the entire Solar System wouldn't be enough for humanity's expansion.
Always aware of my own luck, I'm already prepared for my ancestral lineage to die out.
Since there's no throne to inherit in my family, I wouldn't mind at all if the family line ended with me.
In fact, he felt that with the Mini-World Game Console, he might live another five hundred years. The conventional concept of offspring simply didn't apply to High-Tier Cultivators like him.
However, if they, like Qiao Muyi and Luna, truly wanted to become mothers, Ren Suo would take it seriously and cooperate fully.
Whether they can actually have children, well, that's not up to me. If none of them can, it can't be blamed on me, right? After all, the matter of cultivators' reproduction depends not only on personal effort but also on the course of history...
After making this promise to Luna, Ren Suo felt some of his guilt alleviate.
Like a child trying to appease parents after causing trouble, Ren Suo, having compensated his girlfriend in advance, confessed his transgression. "Luna, I'm sorry."
"What happened?" Luna asked, tilting her head. "Did you sneakily eat my ice cream?"
"I... I was attracted to two other women just now." 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎
Ren Suo took a deep breath and confessed. "Although I suppressed the thought immediately, I can't deny that for an instant, I was drawn to other women, just like I'm drawn to you all."
"Oh, really?"
A calm female voice sounded from above.
Ren Suo and Luna looked up to see Gu Yueyan leaning against the second-floor railing. She wore loose pajamas, her black hair cascading down her back like a waterfall, and the gentle moonlight draped over her like a shimmering gauze robe.
Her lips were pressed tightly together, her expression aloof. She stared straight at Ren Suo.
Without using the stairs, Gu Yueyan leaped directly from the second floor, her bare feet landing as lightly as feathers.
Step by step, she walked towards Ren Suo, her arms crossed over her chest, an expression on her face as if she were catching a cheater red-handed.
"You were attracted to women other than us again?"
Gu Yueyan asked coldly, "Why? Their figures? Looks? Aura? Surely not their intelligence, right?"
Why?
Questioned by his girlfriend, Ren Suo's mind suddenly went blank.
Figure? Looks? Aura? Intelligence?
No, none of those. My girlfriends have all those wonderful qualities.
Ren Suo admitted he was a superficial person, but he was definitely not a greedy one; he didn't have a habit of falling for every woman he met.
So what exactly was it about the Blood Lotus Sect Master and the Dimensional Empress that attracted me?
The next second, Gu Yueyan saw him lift his head and gaze at her earnestly.
With a gentle look in his eyes and a sincere tone, Ren Suo replied—
"Because she... she is very much like you."
