There is One New Rule Every Month Globally

Chapter 81 "Then I wish for your wish to fail.



Chapter 81 "Then I wish for your wish to fail.

A one in ten million chance sounds very low, almost unattainable.

But that probability is based on the premise that every word you speak has a one in ten million chance of coming true.

Which means.

If you start off making 10,000 wishes a day, in a way, you can greatly increase that probability.

The Monster Brushing Square, originally silent and abiding by the rules, was now like a concert scene, filled with countless noisy and excited voices all converging in the hope that the God of Fortune would descend upon them.

The April rule "Active Expert" required every player to converse 1,000 sentences with others every day.

Although many people had accomplished this rule back then.

They lived in anxiety every day, like having the Sword of Damocles over their heads, dreading any accident might occur and render them mute.

And now, the June event "Kids Say the Darndest Things."

It didn't force anyone.

Yet, it made all players throw all caution to the wind, their faces excited and their eyes brimming with hope as they fervently and rapidly made wishes, words flying out at breakneck speed, before even closing their mouths from the last sentence, the next one would already be out.

...Nôv(el)B\\jnn

"Let my mom return to normal, let my mom return to normal," a young man in a tracksuit, kneeling on the ground, looked up solemnly and devoutly to the sky and muttered rapidly.

"Let my mom return to normal."

"Please cure her illness and muteness."

When the April rule came, his mother had just completed full anesthesia to prepare for surgery.

The surgery was hastily completed due to various accidents.

But because of violating the April rule, she had become mute and to this day could not speak.

...

"Let a million players buy a bouquet of Roses for me later."

A woman standing in the crowd, her hands clasped in front of her chest, kept whispering softly.

Her thought was simple.

Instead of something intangible, she wanted something simple; if a million players each sent her a rose, she would surely top the "Charm List"!

She would then receive a large number of rewards!

After all, the simpler the wish, the greater the probability of success!

At least she believed that it was much simpler to get a million players to send her a bouquet of Roses than to magically have a million Points show up in her account.

...

"Let 10 Points appear in my account."

"Let 10 Points appear in my account."

Hearing the clear wishes nearby, Tuberculosis Rabbit looked surprised as he glanced towards the source and watched a young wisher with interest, unable to help but crack a smile.

"You're not too greedy, huh?"

"You came out with a wish for just 10 Points?"

"Cough... better safe than sorry, 10 Points seems more realistic."

"Interesting, then I'll make a wish for your wish to fail."

"..."

The young man stared blankly at Tuberculosis Rabbit and fell silent for a moment, after looking at the title above Tuberculosis Rabbit's head and the dozen titles above the man next to him.

He didn't speak.

He just silently walked away.

Seconds later, a faint curse could be heard amidst the surrounding noise.

There are many who haven't slept for years and some haven't eaten a single grain of rice for years. How these people survive is a mystery; the world never lacks such Aliens.

He could almost completely immunize himself against the May rule as well.

But no one knows what the rules for the coming July to September will be. Hoarding a bit of this kind of thing is a precaution. Most importantly, it's not expensive!

It's just 200 Points!

That's equivalent to twice the price of a Silver Party Ticket!

And it could be a life-saving item at a critical moment.

There's a global limit of 1 million, and nearly 20,000 were already bought shortly after the event started.

"Buy!"

His shopping principle has always been not to buy expensive items or cheap ones, but to buy the limited ones!

This was why he bought a large stack of 'Star Upgrading Coupons' during his first Extraterrestrial Invader event in the Points store because they were limited purchases. These items were still quietly resting in one of his inventory slots.

Currently unusable and their purpose unknown, but he thought it was better to buy first and ask questions later.

Unfortunately, the quantity of these 'Rule Exemption Coupons' up for sale was quite large, and he didn't have the means to buy them all, which somewhat unsettled him as he usually liked to buy out all of a limited item.

"Let's start with a hundred."

With the deduction notification, 20,000 Points vanished just like that.

His account Balance dropped to over 200,000 Points, and his inventory gained a stack of Rule Exemption Coupons. He didn't put these items in his backpack; instead, he gave them all to Tuberculosis Rabbit.

A hundred should be nearly enough, and there are many more good items later. He cannot spend all the Points he has saved for so long here.

"That's fantastic!"

Tuberculosis Rabbit, looking serious, neatly placed these hundred Rule Exemption Coupons into a slot of his backpack. He gazed at the number '100' at the top left corner of the Coupons and couldn't help but express his contentment comfortably.

"I don't know why, but just seeing so many items neatly placed in the inventory brings such a pleasant feeling."

"If it wasn't the wrong time, I could stare at them for ten minutes."

Back when he used to play games with Yi.

As soon as Yi would log in, he'd go brush dungeons, whereas he'd open his own inventory, lean back on the couch, and light a cigarette between his fingers.

With a satisfied and pleasurable expression, he would admire his inventory through the swirling blue smoke.

And occasionally, he would click on a prop to read its detailed information for a while.

He could do this for an entire afternoon.

The more useless the items, the more he liked them.

Chen Yi didn't linger and continued to quickly browse further down because otherwise, there was a risk that any limited prop could be sold out completely, and it would be his turn to feel distressed.

Soon—

He discovered another prop that interested him.

"Prop Name": Vehicle Renaming Coupon.

"Prop Grade": E-grade.

"Prop Effect": Allows one to change the name of their Vehicle to a preferred name within 306 characters.

"Prop Description": "We always advocate for players to develop their unique sense of aesthetics."

"Prop Price": 100 Points.

"Prop Limitation": (22/100,000).

With a limit of 100,000 and after about fifteen minutes since the event start, only 22 have been sold. However, not many are willing to spend Points to rename a vehicle at this time.

It's no different from throwing Points into the water.

You can't even hear a splash.

But even so, 22 people have purchased this prop, and the 23rd willing buyer has appeared.
