Chapter 2: I haven't seen it, I stole it
"I finally spoke. I thought I could only be mute in the simulator!"
Ming Chong carefully studied the ending and confirmed that this was also a CG.

Title: Within Reach
"The furthest distance is from the sky to the abyss. Beneath the Sky Throne, the curse follows you everywhere. You are a transcendent being. For you, all of this is within reach."
Title Effect: You are a master thief, capable of stealing anything from the heavens to the depths. Wearing this title grants you the "Qian Kun" effect.
"Qian Kun" allows the wearer to mark an object, teleporting to it instantly; or mark an object within 200 meters, causing it to meet the wearer. This effect does not transcend reality and illusion, and is only effective within a single environmental characteristic.
"The current title has been automatically worn."
"So there's no problem in escaping now, but there can't be an instantaneous attack with a radius of more than 200 meters in this world, right?" Ming Chong was quite worried.
If you think about it carefully, a 200-meter sword is still possible.
"As an ordinary person, I feel a little more confident." Ming Chong touched his rumbling stomach, "Even a thief needs to eat."
It is okay to hide in this ruin, and the simulator is still very user-friendly. After synchronizing the title of "Phantom Thief", Ming Chong wears the clothes of an ordinary treasure-stealing group.
In addition, since it is a title effect, the clothes have a built-in cleaning effect and can be refreshed after being damaged.
I have to say, if there are clothes with defensive properties, I guess there will be a special CG, right?
Mingchong pondered secretly.
I used "Qiankun" to pick some fruits around, including familiar apples and pear-shaped fruits I had never seen before.
"I'm not surprised at all to see the apple." Ming Chong examined this "different world, same apple" and said, "Come to think of it, this stereotype of the witch's poison apple has actually been deepened in my mind?"
After crunching down five apples, five unknown fruits, Ming Chong finally saw what was displayed on the simulator—
"Player status—[Satiated]."
"...In the old world, two apples would have been enough for me."
Ming Chong shook his head and prepared to continue to earn titles.
In option A, the wind elf is obviously not simple. He himself cannot speak in the simulation. It is only after he speaks out and the simulator fakes a bug that he says a word at the end.
From the sky to the abyss...
The sky is easier to understand, probably referring to the dragon Tevarin. As for the abyss...
Oh my goodness, isn't that fluffy a local specialty? It turns out to be a local monster! !
"I always feel like I've achieved an incredible ending..."
Now there is a circle with an arrow behind option A, which means it can be refreshed.
Ming Chong planned to look at each option and then study this.
"You chose C.
You are a rich man who is powerless and lazy, doing nothing all day long.
So the question is -
Why are you so rich?
It wasn't something you could think about, and you decided to let it go.
"Is that even a question? Because everyone here is rich."
Ming Chong nodded: Nothing wrong, as long as you are not curious, traps and routines can't catch up with me.
"You're just wandering around with nothing to do—
You have nothing to do, just wander around—
You have nothing to do, just wander around—
…
You move, but you’re still wealthy.”
Poke, poke, poke!
"You're just wandering around with nothing to do—
You have nothing to do, just wander around—
…
You move, but you’re still wealthy.”
Poke, poke, poke!
Why is it never-ending?
The text scrolls very quickly, but it's still stuck.
"You're just wandering around with nothing to do—
You have nothing to do, just wander around—
…
You move, but you’re still wealthy.”
“Is it ever going to end?”
As if in response to this sentence, the speed of the scrolling text suddenly slowed down.
"Everyone you know gets together, and someone tells you why everyone is rich but keeps moving.
The goddess who rules over you, Heulia, has the power over salt and brings you wealth, but she is extremely weak. In this war-torn land, once she encounters provocation, she will only choose to retreat.
Heulia possesses two artifacts - the salt ruler and the salt cup, which also contain the power of salt.
You discussed killing the god, taking the two artifacts and joining the powerful god next door, so that you could still be wealthy and never have to move again."
"What? This is only the second simulation, am I really that capable? I'm actually joining in the God-Slaying?!"
Ming Chong was a little bit unbelievable, then continued reading.
“You think that makes sense.
Following the leader's plan, you followed everyone into Heulia's house.
Since you have done nothing before, you plan to do something big today.
Looking at Heulia's white hair, you fell into deep thought. Of course, you later understood what "everyone in Liyue is obsessed with white hair" meant.
You stole Heulia, the Demon Goddess of Salt, and fled."
?
Ming Chong: Why am I obsessed with white hair?
“When you arrived at the neighboring god’s territory, you told her everyone’s plan.
And solemnly stated——
His stealing ability told him that he had stolen the most precious treasure there, and he hoped that the other party would not waste his hard work.
"She told you she couldn't abandon her people, and they did so only because she was unable to protect them in war.
You are puzzled by this, for with or without her they could not have defended themselves in the war. Now they have the salt cup and salt measure, while you have only the treasure with legs.
Heulia fell silent.
She decided to run away with you."
“You decided to follow the original plan and follow the powerful god next door.
Heulia seemed about to say something, but ultimately gave up.
You meet your former neighbors in front of a group of immortals. You greet them in a friendly manner, but their frightened expressions make you sad.
The Rock God Morax asked the reason, and seeing that no one spoke, you told them the truth.
The scandal of a believer murdering his own lord terrified the immortals. You glanced at the despairing expressions of your neighbors and felt something was amiss.
So you added an explanation of the division of the spoils - you used your miraculous abilities to steal the most precious treasure in the palace, Heulia, and therefore came to join the powerful god as planned.
Yes, to avoid having to move again.”
"You have successfully settled in the territory of the Rock God.
Under the persuasion of the Rock God, the Dust God and the Immortals, you released Heulia.
The people around you looked strange as you performed the release ceremony. Only you and Heulia took the matter seriously and solemnly."
