Chapter 305: Chapter 255: The Perfect Perspective (Extra Chapter for Monthly Votes)

Looking at the introduction of the topic on the light screen above him and the countdown, Wen Nan’s lips curled up.

A full 10 hours to convert Fear Value into desire value?

Sure enough, this topic 3., is entirely tailor-made for Wen Nan, right?

For Wen Nan, it’s practically like shooting the arrow first and drawing the target later, and directly predetermining his victory, no difference at all.

Who else could be more adept at generating and alleviating desire in adverse environments than him?

With a topic like this, Wen Nan just wants to say, please, do give me more!

Speaking of which, those "thems" that used to follow him like a shadow, it’s been a long time since he’s seen them, he quite misses them.

This time, who will be the exclusive test subject tailor-made for him? Xiao Zhen? Xiao Chu? Xiao Zhang? Or all together?

As he was thinking, the space in front of him changed, the suspended light screen above him dimmed, and the ground beneath his feet disintegrated, while the figures of the other two candidates in the distance gradually disappeared.

In his mind, the system prompt sounded—

9527: [Based on your situation, we are crafting an exclusive test space for you. This process may extract some of your memories and emotions, causing side effects including but not limited to headaches, dizziness, vomiting. Please endure as much as possible...]

9527: [We will now begin the extraction of memories and emotions...]

Wen Nan stood still in the pitch-darkness where one couldn’t see their hand in front of their face, watching the system prompt, waiting for the feeling of headaches or dizziness to come.

However, no feeling came at all.

9527: [Memory and emotion extraction complete, now beginning to create your exclusive space and generating the exclusive object for qualification testing...]

9527: [Completed: 10%...]

9527: [Completed: 30%...]

9527: [Completed: 99%...]

The progress bar stuck at 99% and didn’t move.

Wen Nan was a bit dazed, he looked around and confirmed he was still standing in a piece of darkness, like some primordial chaos where nothing existed.

Where’s his exclusive space? And the object for his test? He was all ready for a joyful reunion, so why hadn’t those old flames appeared?

After being stuck at 99% for a full 10 minutes, the system seemed to finally give up, and the prompt switched—

9527: [We regret to inform you that the creation of your exclusive test space and object has failed!]

9527: [We were unable to extract any fear elements from your existing memories, thus cannot construct a target for you.]

9527: [Now returning your initial Fear Value: 0.]

9527: [Then, please do your utmost to unleash your Ultimate Charm, bravely face fear with wisdom, and transform it into desire!]

Looking at that last row of default official promotional words and the big zero above his head, Wen Nan felt like cursing.

I don’t even have an initial Fear Value, how am I supposed to convert anything?

What happened to tailor-made, and being the predetermined winner?

Wouldn’t he be bound to lose like this?

Wen Nan made an impolite gesture at the system above his head, and the corner of his eye caught sight of the golden pattern on his palm, causing him to pause.

Withdrawing his hand, he opened his palm and looked at that round control pattern, and suddenly remembered that in the introduction, it said that players could use all tools and skill means to achieve conversion rate at all costs.

Could he now, by using the golden control pattern to initiate the summoning of the slave, enter the other’s space and convert his Fear Value into desire value?

The moment this thought emerged, the system prompt immediately sounded in his mind—

9527: [It has been detected that the character controlled by your golden control pattern is currently in the process of crafting an exclusive test space. If you activate the pattern’s summoning function, based on the highest authority of the golden control pattern, the character will be forcibly removed from its own exclusive space to join you and await your command. Simultaneously, that character will lose the condition to utilize the exclusive space to convert Fear Value.]

9527: [The golden control pattern is a one-way control pattern. The master can summon the slave to his side at any time and place, but the slave has no right to summon the master. Therefore, the master cannot use this pattern to enter the exclusive test space of the role he controls. Please be informed.]

In plain words, this is a one-way teleportation channel – the slave can come to the master, but the master can’t go to the slave.

Wen Nan pursed his lips.

So what should he do now? Sit in this void space and wait to see which one of candidate 1 or 2 ultimately wins?

Then this qualification test is too boring for him. Had he known this outcome, he might as well have given up the qualification test from the start.

Wen Nan sat cross-legged, resting his chin in one hand, starting to think about how to amuse himself and pass the time.

Just as he was becoming drowsy, two faint lights appeared in the distance, like two stars, slowly emerging in the dark night.

Wen Nan stood up, heading toward the brighter of the two stars.

After a brisk walk of about fifteen minutes, a somewhat strange sight unfolded before Wen Nan—

Dim yellow lights overhead, a whole row of stalls beside him, next to the stalls was a row of urinals stained with dirt and urine, opposite the urinals were sinks.

Undoubtedly, this was a public restroom.

However, there were no walls around this restroom, only the interior furnishings. Wen Nan stood in the darkness next to it, looking inside like an observer watching a toy house displayed in a showcase.

With a stomach full of questions, the system sounded in his mind—

9527: [Since you were unsuccessful in building an exclusive test space, you are currently in a null space not restricted by the Divine Staff Sheath test space boundaries, free to move.]
