Chapter 131: Revised: Chapter 74 Scorpio ModeDesire Tower, Jicheng, Longshan District. In Hanjiang Park, many people gather for Go games. This city has a rather strong Go atmosphere. Occasionally, some matches will attract the attention of beggars and passersby. It’s ten o’clock in the morning, and a beggar is listening to the radio. "The rumors about the Hanjiang Water Monster are becoming increasingly intense. Experts say that this is caused by foreign species entering the Hanjiang waters. Citizens don’t need to worry, as there is already a professional cleaning team exploring the depths of Hanjiang." "There are no ghosts or monsters in this world. Please believe in science, the Hanjiang Monster is just a movie fiction." This was the first sentence Wen Xishu heard after arriving at Desire Tower. Wen Xishu originally wanted to leave, thinking to find Ah Miao first, but he was quickly attracted by the second item on the radio. "Three days ago, a journalist reported religious activities within Miracle Mansion. The journalist has now issued an apology, stating that resentment over being unable to stay at Miracle Mansion led him to distort the facts. The journalist voluntarily went to Miracle Mansion to promote it." "The statement that Miracle Mansion staff are cult members is purely rumors. Other residents of Miracle Mansion have also spoken out, saying their lives in Miracle Mansion are happy and fulfilling." Wen Xishu smiled, but the smile quickly faded. He silently checked his attributes, and soon the mirror appeared. However, people around couldn’t see it. Observing himself in the mirror, Wen Xishu found his appearance unchanged, only his clothes were tattered, or rather too tattered. This start indeed gave Wen Xishu some headaches. All Luck Value had landed him this identity - a beggar. "How can I, when I don’t know the location or have any information... find the youngest son of the Sanqiu Group’s biggest tycoon, An Jincheng. And that within 48 hours." Fortunately, everything seemed to be relatively early, and his timing to join the mission at Desire Tower seemed decent. "An Jincheng hasn’t changed his name to An Zhenqi. But Miracle Mansion has already been completed. Including An Jincheng, it’s possible that the seven households haven’t moved in yet." "However, Miracle Mansion seems to have already started to become eerie." This was the information Wen Xishu had obtained so far. He stood up and walked toward the owner of the radio. That man was also a beggar. But the standard-issue radio made the beggar look at Wen Xishu very smugly. Wen Xishu thought: "Being chosen as a beggar, the mechanism itself is unreasonable. I have hands and feet, and I’m young... yet I’m set to be a beggar. It’s really about less wasted steps in life." The beggar looked at Wen Xishu and said: "What’s up, young man?" Wen Xishu remained polite: "Could you tell me the direction to Miracle Mansion?" The beggar laughed heartily: "Are you planning to beg there? Hahaha... Forget it, you won’t get into Miracle Mansion!" "We, people whose deaths won’t matter to anyone, can just listen to the radio. If you buy me a can of coke, I’ll lend you the radio for two hours, how about that?" Wen Xishu turned and walked away, not wasting any more time with this beggar. But at this moment, Wen Xishu suddenly noticed a prompt: [In Scorpio mode, behavior options will be listed based on all your attributes, including exclusive options. Your abilities will affect the generation of certain options and their value tendencies.] What the heck? Wen Xishu didn’t immediately understand. However, upon seeing the options appearing before him, Wen Xishu understood what Scorpio mode meant. [You just arrived in this world, still unclear about where to go from here. Hanjiang Park is your novice village. Now you decide to:] [1: You decide to beat up this old man. (This option is provided by the Dice of Madness.)] [2: You decide to leave directly.] [3: Invite the old man for a game of Go.] [4: Kill the old man (This option is provided by the Dice of Madness.)] [5: You plan to politely ask the old man.] [6: You plan to help the old man with some work first.] [7: Use words to provoke extreme emotions in the old man and probe his thoughts (provided by the eerie sequence 37·mind barrage and corresponding rune empathetic synergy)] [8: Blend in (This option is provided by the item "Gradual Appathy".)] There were more than a dozen similar options... Wen Xishu was shocked looking at the string of options. Instantly, he understood that Scorpio mode was a game mode. He lost some freedom, but could make more unreasonable choices through options. Wen Xishu chose to leave directly. At this moment, Wen Xishu suddenly saw a giant dice spinning. Everyone around seemed to freeze. The points, 17. [Some actions require points greater than 15 to be effective. However, for this option, points just need to be greater than 2 to be effective.] [You rolled 17 points. The action achieves great success. You’ve successfully left the old man, completing your first choice, and instantly have new thoughts in your mind.] Wen Xishu found it quite interesting. "Some options might be ones others don’t have, but I do. And this Scorpio mode, it’s not just about making choices..." "After making a choice, you have to roll a dice. If the dice points don’t appear in the success determination range, the action might fail." "But if it’s within the success range and the points are high... it seems there will be extra attribute bonuses." Wen Xishu didn’t expect Scorpio mode to be so interesting. Compared to the eerie Virgo and Gemini styles he thought of before, he preferred this Scorpio.
