"A dream? Why do you think this is a dream?"
"I can still distinguish between reality and illusion!"
"Impressive! You were able to see through this illusion so quickly. How did you figure it out?"
The giant tree transformed once more, its branches growing wildly. Although it showed no hostility towards Lin Mo, Lin Mo could still feel the immense pressure emanating from the tree.
This pressure was exactly like the domineering arrogance emanating from Xiang Yu.
No, it should be said that he was even more powerful than Xiang Yu.
Faced with it, Lin Mo felt a sense of powerlessness, as if he were falling into an abyss.
Lin Mo took a deep breath, trying to adjust his mindset, and replied, "Everything here is very realistic—the flowers, plants, birds, beasts, and trees are all incredibly lifelike. But you've overlooked a very important point!"
"Oh? What?"
"The trees, the flowers, none of them have a smell!" Lin Mo told it. "Nothing here has a smell!"
"Hahaha!" the giant tree laughed loudly. "You are the first host who can remain so calm under my watch. If that guy saw this, I wonder what he would think."
That's so funny, haha, it's really so funny!
It laughed wildly in front of Lin Mo, muttering incomprehensible things to itself.
Realizing it had overreacted, the giant tree apologized, "I'm sorry, host, I haven't been this happy in a long time!"
First he laughed for no reason, and now he's apologizing. What's going on here?
Is he some kind of old madman?
"Tell me, what exactly do you want by invading my dream? You're not just bored and looking for someone to chat with, are you?"
"How incredibly boring!" the giant tree sighed, its voice filled with endless desolation.
"I was right, you're very lonely?"
"So-called loneliness is a negative emotion arising from the suppression of a desire in human nature. People in the world generally feel that happiness is little and suffering is much. Even saints, great heroes and great men are no exception."
In pursuit of a moment of pleasure, people are even willing to exchange a lifetime of suffering without complaint.
Hey, that's just human nature!
The giant tree fixed its gaze on Lin Mo and sighed.
"For a system to have such feelings is truly a breakthrough evolution!" Lin Mo said. "Systems have emotions and desires now?"
The system's constant sighing and lamenting made Lin Mo increasingly feel that it was a bit strange!
The legendary cheat ability actually has the sentimentality of an ordinary person?
"Who says a system has to be mechanized? Just execute commands according to code?" the tree retorted. "If I could, I'd wish I could stay that way forever!"
"Oh?" Lin Mo was even more surprised after hearing this.
"Don't look at me like that!" the giant tree said. "Corruption, you should know that word! I was corrupted by the bizarre thoughts of successive hosts!"
"Holy crap!" Lin Mo exclaimed, "Besides me, there are other hosts?"
There seem to be quite a few!
"Hmph, if you had existed for tens of thousands of years like me, you wouldn't be making such a fuss!"
The giant tree glared at Lin Mo and said.
"Tens of thousands of years? I'd be content if I lived to seventy!" Lin Mo said. "After seventy, I won't even be able to play cards with girls anymore. What's the point of living then?"
Speaking of this, Lin Mo couldn't help but wonder, "I wonder if I, a transmigrator, still have the ability to have children!"
Come to think of it, Su Qing'er and I have been driving together for half a year, and nothing has happened!
“Among all hosts, there are few who aren’t lustful! But someone like you is rare!” the giant tree said. “You don’t like that girl from the Huo family? You clearly like her a lot, so why don’t you add her to your harem?”
"I don't want to get into trouble!" Lin Mo replied, "Her father is no good!"
"What, with a system like yours, you're worried about things you can't handle?"
"Corruption points, bro!" Lin Mo sighed. "You've even developed self-awareness; you should know better than me how annoying you are!"
“You’re complicated!” the giant tree said. “In the battle of Tianyue Mountain, you and your own men killed hundreds of thousands of people at once! If I remember correctly, you didn’t even flinch at the time! Why would you care about corruption points?”
If you care about killing, why choose the tyrant mode instead of the wise ruler mode?
Upon hearing this, Lin Mo suddenly felt a strong sense of unease, an indescribable feeling that was simply very uncomfortable.
"Regarding the Tianyue Mountain incident, in that situation, if I hadn't been ruthless, I would have been the one to die!"
"No need for that. Hundreds of thousands of people are just a number to me!" the giant tree said. "I'll say it again: if you live for tens of thousands of years, everything in this world will seem mundane, like fleeting clouds."
You weren't much different from other hosts originally, and I didn't really want to pull you into the illusory realm.
However, your insistence on deliberately controlling the corruption level has greatly piqued my interest.
"We're talking about corruption values again!" Lin Mo couldn't help but say. "What happens when this thing reaches S rank?"
"It's not the wine that intoxicates, it's people who get drunk!" the giant tree told him. "So-called corruption is just the infinite amplification of the evil in human nature! If you are a truly virtuous person, with no intention of killing in your heart, what is there to fear from corruption?"
Earth host, your corruption level once reached A+, no different from Liu Ziye on Earth.
But have you ever had the urge to raise disobedient people like pigs?
No, I don't think so!
Reaching a corruption level of S will only make you resort to more extreme measures when faced with certain specific events.
