Chapter 859: Chapter 421 Bottom-level Code_2

Blue Beard: Why guess? Why not just ask the girl and find out?

Blue Beard: @SubtleElegance. Hey girl, is 2459 the Ghost Captain dude?

SubtleElegance: Ah, it should be... I guess...

In the pet shop, Little Ya looked up and glanced at Mu You who was sitting by the window meditating with his eyes closed, her reply somewhat uncertain.

Mu You hadn’t told her his exact number in the tower, but she had a rough idea that it was between 2000-3000, because hers was about the same range.

Baron of Hell: I knew it!

Sherlock Holmes: He really is a god! God, please give us a strategy!

Holy Light Nana: Asking for strategy here too, I want to see the view from the top of the tower!

Son of Heaven: +1.

...

Several people in the city lord group were tagging Mu You, but sadly he had no time to pay attention to them as he was still organizing his gains.

"Cleared the tower and obtained the identity of Fool?"

Mu You found this prompt a bit strange.

A player’s identity was Fool from the beginning of the game, yet after this prompt, there was no change to his panel or the game interface...

Which means, this reward might not be intended for the players, but for others, the natives of Star Spirit World. If a native other than a player managed to clear the tower, would they become a Fool?

Adding to that the description of the ’Fool’s Tower Server’ below, the name here had become ’Tower of Fools’, rather than Tower of Heroes.

Mu You immediately speculated, could this possibly be the original origin of the Fools?

In the previous era, there might not have been a race called ’Fools’, until one day, a regular native of Star Spirit World cleared the tower, gained the Fool’s Bloodline, and became the first Ancestor of Fools, obtaining the ability to wear skins and disguise as others.

Afterward, this person encouraged more people to attempt the tower climb, leading to a growing number of people becoming Fools. Once there was a substantial base number, Fools gradually evolved into a race...

However, it mentioned ’Server No.2 of the Tower of Fools’, which surely meant there was a Server No.1 and possibly other numbered servers as well.

Would one become a Fool by passing the tests of these servers?

Mu You was not sure yet and continued reading.

Next was the ’Admin’ identity.

In the upper right corner of Mu You’s game interface, an ’Admin’ module had now appeared.

Upon opening it, there was a text panel filled with extensive content, the first few lines explaining the authorities he possessed.

The tasks he could perform were primarily concentrated within this tower, mainly four points.

1, He could now change the name and mission type of the tower at any time.

The Tower of Heroes, Heroes Fighting the Demon King, and so on, were actually set by the previous admin, making it easier for people of that era to understand. He could completely change it to stories like ’Seven Dwarfs Saving Snow White’ or ’Calabash Brothers Saving Grandpa’.

Additionally, all the text dialogues and monster appearances within the tower were editable. For instance, he could set all the small creatures in the tower to be minions of a snake spirit. However, no matter what they were called or looked like, the star level and difficulty of the monsters themselves could not be changed.

2, He could modify some of the basic settings of the Tower of Fools, such as its daily opening times and so on. He could also create ’Hero Badges’ at any time, which were the entry tickets to the tower, and decide to whom they should be distributed.

3, The Admin title itself. Having the Admin identity came with one major benefit: he would no longer be attacked by Silent Beasts, Time Guards, or any other ’smoke creatures’, even if he did something against the rules. These smoke creatures wouldn’t pursue him to kill anymore, because he was now ’one of them’.

That is to say, Mu You could now ignore those Silent Beasts and boldly enter the Silent Library to peruse the books.

4, And most importantly, Mu You could now clearly see every detail of the challenges on each floor of the hundred-story tower.

It included the drop rates of all items, the interrelation between different events, triggering conditions probabilities, etc., all laid out below in detailed text descriptions, clear and detailed.

For example, he saw ten cursed items, including ’Cursed Doll’ and ’Modesty Rule’, hidden in various floors of the tower. The effect, location, and activation conditions of each item were all clearly marked. In theory, if these ten items were all placed on the Demon King, it would significantly weaken his strength and make clearing the tower much more straightforward.

However, every time the Demon King died, these items would be hidden again in the tower, waiting for players to discover and gather them next time...

In short, such detailed content could no longer be described by simply calling it ’strategy’; it was akin to displaying the underlying code right in front of him!

Unfortunately, these underlying codes could only be viewed, not modified.

After browsing the Admin interface, Mu You returned to the game interface.

The next reward was this: One of your Karma Lines has automatically connected to the Mountain of Creation.

"Karma Lines..."

Mu You’s brow quirked at the term.

He could only see Karma Lines while divining through his third-eye perspective.

Thinking this, Mu You put down his phone, held his breath, concentrated, and closed his eyes to enable his third-eye view.

In the third-eye perspective, the world turned a hazy grey. At the same time, he and those around him, like Little Ya, had multicolored lines emanating from them, entwining with each other, some connecting with one another while others branched out and vanished beyond the field of view.
