Chapter 1191: What A Pity
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“I admit that I’m not naturally interested in rules. I only care about getting the results I want. As for the methods and the trouble it will bring, that has never been my focus.” Loki spread his hands, “It’s my fault for always having the power to ignore the rules.”
The little boy nodded. “God of pranks and lies, you’ll be a good character to play Texas hold’em. Let’s play when you’re free.”
“I don’t lay eggs like to a hen, and even if I win, you’ll suspect me of cheating, right?” Loki said as he opened the fridge and found a bottle of beer. But because the power had been out in the city for a while, the beer had long warmed to room temperature.
The little boy reached out and Loki handed him the beer. When he took it back, the beer was already emitting cold air, and a layer of fine water droplets had even formed on the glass bottle.
“Cool!” Loki whistled. “Did you change the code of this beer bottle in the background just now? When will I learn this trick of yours? I don’t have to show my face in the dungeon, and you set it as a gatekeeper boss.”
“I’m not targeting you. It’s just that your power is too strong for this dungeon. You need to make numerical adjustments. Only in this way can the game be balanced,” the little boy said expressionlessly.
“Balanced?” Loki’s face showed a half-smile, “I’m not the only one in this dungeon with a data overflow, right? You’re ignoring the guy with the cheating device, and you’re still talking about balance? Don’t tell me you don’t know anything about the underhanded tricks of Kronos.”

“We reached an agreement at the beginning of the game. Every God will bestow an ability on the agent they value. All the actions of Kronos and his agent up to now are within the rules of the game,” the little boy said with a serious expression.
“Rubbish!” Loki looked disdainful. He opened his beer and took a sip, “In the words of the white-haired man downstairs, I can smell the PY from ten miles away. You turned a blind eye to it because Kronos helped you build the game’s time system.”
The little boy didn’t deny it. “Not only Kronos, but many other people contributed to the process. That’s why we set up the organizing committee to manage these game worlds. Without their help, I wouldn’t have been able to create so many realistic and charming worlds. Speaking of which, I once invited you to help design the main storyline mission, but you didn’t accept it.”
“I’m a busy man, so I don’t have the time. and aren’t you worried that I’ll mess up your beloved game world?” Loki pretended.
“I can give you a certain amount of free space to unleash your creativity. In the end, I’ll handle it. I’m confident that nothing will go wrong,” the little boy said. “I know what you’re worried about. I can also persuade the other members of the organizing committee to try to accept you. Of course, in view of your unpleasant past, it will be difficult to wipe your slate clean. But at least it’s not a problem to maintain a cooperative state in this matter. You can also use this as an opportunity to repair your relationship with them.”
Loki was angered by the boy’s words. However, the boy’s final promise lit his eyes up. He seemed tempted. Just as he was about to agree, however, his expression changed and he grinned. “I refuse. Do you really think I care about what other gods think of me?”

The little boy was not surprised. “What a pity,” he simply said.
“No, it’s not.” Loki scratched his chin. “If you hadn’t appeared here tonight, I wouldn’t have known that you had your eyes on him.”
“I only appeared here because I received a major error report.”
“Tsk, Tsk, Tsk. What did I just say? Don’t compare eggs with hens. I won’t compare Texas hold’em with you, so you’d better not lie in front of the god of lies.”
Loki grinned, but his smile stopped halfway through.
“Damn it, how long has it been? My second incarnation was killed too!”

Zhang Heng silently memorized a few murals on the wall, turned to leave, but he stopped the next moment.
He walked to the only furniture in the room and reached out to pick up the kerosene lamp. Almost at the same time, a system notification sounded in his ear.
[Discovered game item—Old Kerosene Lamp (Unappraised)]
Zhang Heng felt that the kerosene lamp was placed too deliberately. It happened to be at the golden dividing point of the entire room. Of course, if it wasn’t for his keen observation and sense of space, he would probably only have noticed it after measuring it step by step with a ruler.
However, Zhang Heng was able to observe the lamp’s position with his naked eye. Thus, on his way back, he picked up a game item, the kerosene lamp, and examined it. However, he couldn’t find anything special about it. The item was still in its unappraised state, and Zhang Heng hadn’t seen it used before, so he couldn’t figure out its use. Thus, he had no choice but to put it into his backpack.
Then, he left the hut and went to the haystack. It was then that he noticed the footprints on the ground.
Because of Sauk’s weird personality, she had almost no contact with the people in the village. She lived alone in a corner of the village, so the footprints on the ground were all left by her alone. It was very convenient to chase after her, where Zhang Heng could tell from a glance which of them were fresh.
The footprints that had just been left stretched all the way to the forest behind them, also the direction of Sauk’s escape.
Zhang Heng chased after them with his rifle. The forest at night was quiet. Only the scattered moonlight fell on the ground. The huge shadows of the trees covered most of the area, making the view very bad. However, this didn’t affect Zhang Heng—he was wearing the [Filter Lens], thus he could see everything around him.
With this D-grade item, he did not have to worry about being ambushed by Sauk. In addition to the time he had spent in the hut, Zhang Heng did not slow down. He ran to the two pine trees that were about to stick together, however, Zhang Heng suddenly stopped in his tracks.
At this moment, Sauk was holding her hunting rifle and hiding behind a rock 50 meters away.. He pricked up his ears as if he was waiting for something.
