Path of the Gods Player Official Forum

A trace of gravity flashed between Qin Shang's brows.

But mere speculation was useless for now, so he suppressed those complicated thoughts.

Only then did he open the Path of the Gods Player Official Forum.

He had searched through Baidu, looking up everything related to the Path of the Gods, con artists, dungeons, and more.

Yet he could barely find any useful clues. It was also possible that, as an ordinary person, his internet access was limited.

Perhaps all the useful clues had been blocked?

"The Path of the Gods player community must have existed for quite some time. Otherwise, the app's version wouldn't have been able to run on a phone from ten years ago, the iPhone 5S.

"Then, does the official government of Huaxia know about this community?

"Because I haven't cleared the game yet—or perhaps because I died inside the Death Train dungeon—I currently still hold the Character Card and can see the Inheritance and Deciphering skills.

"The Inheritance skill of the Con Artist class seems basically useless in real life.

"Am I supposed to inherit the obsessions of people who just kicked the bucket?

"And then complete someone else's life, helping them fulfill their dying wishes?

"Fuck, have I lost my mind..."

However, Deciphering could still be used!

That was right—the Path of the Gods skills could be brought into reality!

He had just tried opening a torrent site for overseas study materials written entirely in English. The titles that once required translation instantly appeared before his eyes, and he understood their contents at a glance.

'Time Stopper,' 'The Interviewer's Deception,' 'The Promise Hidden Beneath the Wedding Dress,' 'My Wife and Her Best Friend'...

However, the Deciphering skill seemed capable of deciphering only text and images.

If he heard another language with his ears,

Qin Shang was still completely lost, as though he were listening to a heavenly scripture.

The Path of the Gods skills could be brought into the real world.

Qin Shang's mind tightened. Although all the Path of the Gods class skills he had seen so far were ordinary—for example, Inheritance and Deciphering didn't seem all that overpowering in reality—

they could still be considered superpowers, or some form of supernatural ability, couldn't they?

Then what about people in unknown classes, such as Martial Artists and Doctors? Would they use their class skills to make money, rob and kill, or commit other crimes?

Moreover, judging from the tone of that security officer, Eagle of Justice, at the time, this seemed to be merely an initial skill.

Could there be other skills later on?

These abilities were already outrageously powerful when brought into reality.

With such a group of people wielding supernatural abilities right under the nose of the Huaxia government, could the authorities really be unaware?

If they used their abilities to commit crimes...

It was simply terrifying to imagine!

According to a joke Jiang Qiqi had once made, if someone in the world could understand more than a dozen languages, including minor ones, they could invent a new encrypted language. They could even communicate in front of a large crowd without anyone being able to decipher it.

Japanese, Chinese, English, French, German—by interweaving various languages into an encryption, one could create a completely undecipherable language.

The Teacher's Deciphering skill could completely be used for espionage—and the kind that would never be discovered...

At this thought, Qin Shang suddenly cut off his train of thought and shook his head.

No, this wasn't something I should be worrying about.

"After my wife left these things for me, she disappeared. That means Jiang Qiqi most likely encountered danger. This Character Card must be a clue."

"Hmm, the phone is the same..."

He quickly opened the Path of the Gods Player Official Forum.

Although the app's UI was designed in an especially retro style, logging in was still required to view it.

However, Qin Shang couldn't find a registration option.

So... this app was an internal-test app!?

Please enter your Path of the Gods ID;...

Password;...

As for the ID, his wife's ID probably wasn't "Fiercely Licking Cockroach Jade Feet." Her peculiar tastes were usually reserved for herself.

However, apart from the memo, there was no other information on the phone. The contacts and all kinds of browser search records had also been wiped clean, as if the system had been reset, leaving no trace of use.

"Let's try using the dungeon number and my game ID!"

Qin Shang gave it a try, and sure enough, those were the correct combination.

The interface loaded for a moment before entering the forum's homepage.

The homepage had four sections, roughly divided into "Dungeon Guide," "Trading Market," "Point Redemption," and "Official Missions."

The remaining section, which was relatively popular, was "Casual Discussion."

The Dungeon Guide made the young man's eyes light up. It was also the first section to attract Qin Shang's attention.

After all, if this was a game, then there should naturally be guides and the like.

Of course, that depended on the number of players being large enough and someone being willing to share.

He clicked into it. The categories were comprehensive, and Qin Shang also got his first glimpse of the diversity of the Path of the Gods players' classes.

The titles under the section covered basically all the major classes. Usually, the relevant dungeon was indicated in the title...

#"Priest" Complete Collection of Classic Priest Classes and Beginner Dungeon Guide, 5 points#

#"Martial Artist" Personal Views on Mystic Jade Island, Enter If Interested, 1 point#

#"Priest, Con Artist, Martial Artist" The Most Comprehensive Guide to the Lin Village No. 37 Terror in the Entire Universe, Don't Miss It, Opportunity Knocks but Once, Only 2 Points#

#"Hypnotist, Con Artist, Teacher" Just Cleared Lonely Shadow Under the Moon. Friends with the Priest Class Can Discuss Together, 1 point#

#"Hypnotist, Con Artist" Guess Who He Is: The Con Artist Dungeon Is Nine Deaths and One Life. Without a Guide, Death Is Certain. Just Cleared It, 5 points#

#"Martial Artist, Con Artist" Detailed Explanation of the Path to Hegemony, The Most Comprehensive on the Entire Internet, 4 points#

Most of these sections began with the relevant dungeon class, likely indicating dungeons specific to certain classes.

Then, in the moderator section, Qin Shang saw a statement and let out a silent sigh of understanding.

"Dungeons are divided into six categories: solo exploration, multiplayer exploration, solo confrontation, multiplayer confrontation, and player-versus-player."

"The value of any unexplored dungeon exceeds ten thousand gold. Therefore, please do not be stingy. Verified clear guides for S-rank dungeons will be rewarded with 10 points, A-rank dungeon guides with 5 points, B-rank with 2 points, and C-rank with 1 point."

Below that was a reminder marked in red.

"No Path of the Gods player may use superpowers to break the law or disrupt order within Huaxia. If criminal activity occurs, official personnel will conduct a purge once the facts have been investigated."

"Learn from past examples, which are too numerous to count. New and veteran players alike, remain vigilant."

Although it was only a few short lines, Qin Shang felt an inexplicable killing intent emanating from them.

The red text made the authorities' attitude toward Path of the Gods players using their superpowers to cause trouble perfectly clear.

As expected...

Qin Shang clicked his tongue.

"Under heaven, all land belongs to the king." Under the authorities' watchful eye, it was practically impossible for a group of superpowered people to run rampant.

This world had never lacked geniuses. Even if they possessed skills granted by Path of the Gods Character Cards, many people in reality still underestimated those who had truly obtained the protagonist's script.

Perhaps, in the past, someone's ambitions had swollen as their abilities grew, leading them to attempt something wicked.

That was why even more terrifying Path of the Gods players would be sent to purge them.

After all, who could guarantee that those loyal to the authorities hadn't obtained Character Cards themselves?

It made perfect sense.

Otherwise, if this community had existed for so long, it would probably have been wiped out long ago.

No matter how powerful the skills granted by the Path of the Gods were, they couldn't possibly stand against guns and artillery, could they?
