Following her gaze, Wang Yao saw a character in the center of the computer screen suddenly freeze. It was a foreign character, and it was not only frozen, but also faintly shimmering.
“Foreign characters are the easiest to find, there are only a few letters,” Qin Su said with a smile. Characters continued to fall like rain on the computer screen, but the shimmering foreign character remained stable in the center of the screen like a small umbrella, without changing.
Soon, more foreign words and numbers appeared to the left and right of this foreign word, gradually forming a row.
"It's done!" Suddenly, all the characters that had fallen on the computer screen disappeared, leaving only a row of characters shining brightly in the middle. Qin Su shouted excitedly.
"Fortunately, only one symbol was used; the rest were foreign words and numbers, so it didn't take much time to find. If the code had been written in human script, it would have been much more difficult to find." As Qin Su spoke, her hands began to tap away on the keyboard again.
Not long after, the "Present" page returned to the screen. Wang Yao saw Qin Su directly enter the "Fate Adjustment" interface where the ancient-style figure was writing and drawing. She tapped the screen with one finger, and the four pale characters "Fate Adjustment" appeared.
Below the large characters was a flashing cursor. Qin Su typed on the keyboard with both hands, and the cursor turned into a string of small stars. Then, an interface suddenly opened, displaying several lines of large, blood-red characters.
“Astrology is an extremely serious matter, and adjustments must be made with utmost care. It is not a casual chat or a game; it concerns the fate of a person for their entire life, and no one has the right to change it without a legitimate reason!”
The line of red text against the black screen was quite alarming, but Qin Su seemed not to see it and continued typing on the keyboard. However, she suddenly stopped typing in surprise. The red text on the computer screen had disappeared, leaving only a cursor blinking at the top.
“Here… here a system self-identification program has appeared, but it can’t be modified.” Qin Su turned to look at Wang Yao.
"Self-identification program, what is that?" Wang Yao asked in astonishment. His computer skills were only at the level of playing ordinary web games, and he didn't understand what Qin Su meant at all.
"Here you need to enter your reason for modifying your destiny. If the system approves your reason, it will take you directly to the destiny file that needs to be modified. If the system does not approve it, you will no longer be able to enter here," Qin Su said.
"Is that so?" Wang Yao stared at the computer screen in astonishment. He wasn't sure if the system would accept his reason of completing the Four Heavenly Cripples mission, and he couldn't help but feel uneasy again.
"Um... why don't you change it so that people can enter without a reason?" Wang Yao asked.
“No, this is a major program of the system. Modifying it would be equivalent to rewriting the entire system, just like moving the front door of a house, which is like changing the entire structure of the house.” Qin Su shook her head regretfully.
"The system here binds the retrieval of specific destiny records to the system's judgment. If the judgment fails, the record cannot be retrieved. There are too many mortal destiny records, and using other methods to retrieve them is like looking for a needle in a haystack," Qin Su continued to explain.
"Um... is it possible to modify the system's judgment criteria?" Wang Yao asked, blinking his eyes. If the system's judgment criteria could be modified, that would be a solution.
“Theoretically, it is possible, but the database is also incredibly large, and it would take a lot of time to modify it,” Qin Su said, frowning.
"Since we don't know the specific criteria it uses, we can only try different reasons one by one, and only by figuring out the patterns can we make targeted modifications..."
Before Qin Su could finish speaking, Wang Yao rejected her idea, citing countless reasons why it was impossible to answer them all.
"Group Leader Gao, what is the system's reason for determining that the destiny file has been modified?" Wang Yao turned to ask Group Leader Gao.
"I...how would I know? Since I took over the creative group, I've never even considered modifying the astrological records," said Group Leader Gao, his eyes wide.
Wang Yao thought to himself that the group leader was probably secretly pleased. He frowned slightly, sat down in the seat that Qin Su had given up, and directly typed "In order to complete the Heavenly Court's mission to change the destiny of Molupo the Lonely One, it is necessary to modify Molupo's destiny file" after the cursor.
As soon as the Enter key was pressed, a line of red text appeared almost instantly.
"The reason for completing the mission is invalid. You've altered someone else's fate for your own selfish reasons. What you need to change is your character!"
Sure enough, the system wouldn't accept the reason of completing the task. Wang Yao rubbed his chin, thinking to himself that modifying other people's fates to complete tasks for himself was indeed a bit selfish, and the system wasn't entirely wrong.
He had a sudden inspiration and continued to tap, "tap tap tap..."
"Molopo is destined to be a loner, and his life has been full of hardships. Now that he is over forty, he hopes that by changing his destiny, he can live a happier life in the rest of his days."
Wang Yao thought to himself, completing the mission might be selfish, but surely this couldn't be considered selfish for the sake of Molupo's happiness for the rest of his life? But to his surprise, just as he pressed the enter key, another line of red text popped up.
"The fate of this life is determined by the previous life. The suffering in this life is the blessing in the next life. If you want happiness, wait for the next life."
"Damn it, this won't work either!" Wang Yao was truly at a loss. Given the system's nature, there was no way to proceed. He said it was selfish for himself, and it was destined for the victims. What other options were there?
He frowned and pondered for a long time before decisively typing another short but powerful reason on the keyboard.
