Chapter 10 [The Gears of Fate]
The cases of Liu Zhengliu and Liu Hongsheng have reached a stalemate. Although the cause of Liu Hongsheng's death was found to be unrelated to the knife wounds on his body and the fall, so many people saw Liu Hongsheng escape from Liu Zhengliu's clutches, and the blood on Liu Zhengliu's hands and her fingerprints on the knife handle could not be faked.
Liu Zhengliu can't leave anytime soon, especially since Liu Hongsheng's wife has said she wants Liu Zhengliu to go to jail. This matter has blown up too much, especially since it happened downstairs from an entertainment company. In just a few days, it's already trending online.
With her agent gone and no one to care for her, and the only opportunity she had taken snatched away by a well-connected actor, she was happy to be free.
The two idiots in this company are one dead and the other is on trial. In his past life, his scandals were caused by these two working together. The other executives wanted to help him out. Why target their own artist? They have too much money to burn. But at that time, he still had six months left on his contract. Liu Zhengliu said he wanted to terminate his contract and change agencies, so everyone fell silent and let the two of them do what they wanted.
Yu Xunge plans to slack off for six months while waiting to terminate his contract and retire from the entertainment industry.
She's been very busy lately. Yesterday, she was thinking about what could help her gain Yu Xunhuan's trust while also keeping him in check.
The first thing to rule out is the possibility of memory alteration. Even if she altered Yu Xunhuan's, Yu Qingshan's, and Yi Qiuguo's memories of the 22nd, surveillance footage cannot be faked. Yu Xunhuan is extremely suspicious, even cautious to the core. Once he becomes suspicious, he will definitely check the surveillance footage from that day. After the conflict with the false memory occurs, not only will she fail to gain Yu Xunhuan's trust, but she will also become irrefutable evidence that she deliberately plotted against Yu Xunhuan.
In his past life, the Su, Han, and Liang families all sent people to hunt him down. The most troublesome of them wasn't actually the Su family. Although the Su family sent many people, he could simply evade them. The most troublesome were actually the people sent by the Liang family. This was not only because Liang Yuchuan was ruthless, but also because there was someone in the Liang family whose talent was extremely disgusting!
Just thinking about Yu Xunge makes me dizzy and break out in a cold sweat, as if I've spent the whole day in advanced calculus.
【Gears of Destiny】(Rank B)
[Skill 1] Happy Again: Select a target and use this skill to rotate their fate gear, modifying their luck for the day. The modification lasts for 6 hours, with a 6-hour cooldown. (You can choose whether to hide the modified fate value from the target.)
【Skill 2】Your combination is wrong, I don't like it: Select a target and use the skill to rotate its gear of fate, swapping the target's highest and lowest attribute values. The swap lasts for 1 hour and has a 6-hour cooldown.
Although it's only a B-grade film, it's absolutely disgusting!
Or rather, it's not unreasonable that it could be rated B-level even without any offensive skills.
For those few days, whenever this person saw her, she would have bad luck for a full six hours.
More importantly, this change in luck value is not displayed on the individual's data panel; the individual can only see that their luck value is always 8.
Then suddenly, bad luck struck.
Running away would lead to a dead end, her disguise would be discovered, she would choke halfway through drinking a blood potion, her magic would miss, her gun would explode, and even magic missiles, which automatically track targets, had zero critical hits, even though her critical hit rate was 77% at the time! In the end, she fired 60 magic missiles without a single critical hit.
Is this a gift from God? Or is it a curse from God?
She escaped capture for a whole year, but was captured alive in less than 7 days after this person arrived, all because of this divinely bestowed talent.
But here's the question: was that person a beta tester?
There were three closed beta tests. The first one reportedly only had a few hundred people logging in. The second one, you told me and I told him, and even though the closed beta test was very sudden, it was discovered and spread like wildfire. Everyone who knew about the game flocked in, and the number of logins reached tens of thousands. The third closed beta test saw hundreds of thousands more people creating characters.
Regardless, Yu Xunge plans to find that person in the next few days. As long as he participates in the closed beta test, she will kill him immediately!
Then she'll test if this skill can affect non-players. If it can, she'll use it on Yu Xunhuan.
If Yu Xunhuan were to draw an SS-level talent from his previous life, even with extremely bad luck, she would steal it on the spot and kill the male lead to end it all, even if she spent her next life filled with resentment, she would still give Yu Xunhuan a quick death; if the male lead were to get a trashy divinely bestowed talent, that would be best.
That person was easy to find; he was the Liang family's driver. Yu Xunge knew where the Liang family's old residence was, in one of the best locations in the villa district. After all, without enough influence and wealth, how could she be qualified to be the female lead in a male-oriented novel?
She didn't rush to the Liang family, but instead stayed home and started making potions again.
In addition to twenty bottles of basic invisibility potion, there are also more than fifty servings of intermediate invisibility potion. Compared to the basic invisibility potion, which only allows invisibility for 5 minutes, this intermediate invisibility potion allows invisibility for up to 15 minutes, but the cooldown time is also increased, with a cooldown time of 20 minutes after use.
She found a beef skewer recipe in the [Cooking] (Beginner) skill and made 297 beef skewers, which she put in her backpack. Each skewer can be eaten for one minute, which is equivalent to slowly restoring 5 points of health. This way, she can both store meat and practice her cooking skills.
Her 24-slot bag now contains various odds and ends, clothing, and weapons, while her six tattered pouches contain food and potions she might need at any time: 99 basic healing potions, 99 basic mana potions, 57 intermediate invisibility potions, 99 beef skewers, 99 beef skewers, and 99 beef skewers.
How could someone who becomes the male lead's woman not be a beta tester?
The world doesn't revolve around Yu Xunge, but it definitely revolves around the male and female protagonists.
Not only are the male and female leads beta testers, but the male lead's brothers are too. Otherwise, would they be worthy of being called brothers with the male lead?!
That's great, except for her, the male lead's sister.
Isolate her, huh?!
Yu Xunge's purpose in going to the Liang family this time was not only for the Gears of Destiny, but also for the male protagonist's second girlfriend - Liang Yuchuan.
The male protagonist's three female confidantes are all S-level talents. His legal wife, Su Yitong, is said to have a divine talent related to healing. Later, she collected and learned various buff skills and became the strongest support. His second girlfriend, Liang Yuchuan, also has a divine talent of S-level. She is one of only two S-level talents in the top 100 list to be publicly revealed.
[Water God] (S-rank)
[Skill 1] Where there is water, there I am: Can transform into a water droplet and merge into the water.
[Skill 2] Hello Water: Increases all water-related items and skills by 50%.
[Skill 3] Vampire: After use, there is a 20% chance to drain 1% of the opponent's health.
[Skill 4] I, the Water God, Heal (Passive): When you become a water droplet or are in water, your injuries will slowly heal.
Yu Xunge coveted this talent, but she didn't intend to steal it. If Yu Xunhuan could draw an SS-level talent with only 1 luck value, she would immediately use this skill to steal his SS-level talent and kill him. If Yu Xunhuan obtained an extremely ordinary talent, she would keep the "Thief God's Thief, or the Thief of a Bandit" to prevent him from making a comeback.
Furthermore, death in the game world refreshes the cooldown of the skill "Thief God's Thief, which can also be the Thief of a Robber." As long as this skill is not used, she can use it twice more in the game, so it's impossible for her to waste it in reality.
She wanted to try stealing the props from Liang Yuchuan; she didn't believe the female lead wouldn't have good stuff.
Her 50 million yuan villa was located in the same area as the Liang family villa, not far away. In her previous life, Yu Xunhuan got involved with the Liang family through a copy of that villa.
