Welcome to the False Paradise!

A glimpse of those words flashed before Liu Feng's eyes. His first act was thus completed. He felt a little regretful, having only been an observer. But perhaps he could only ever be an observer.

Without any power, neither the shorty nor the thug could easily kill him, let alone the blue-haired youth or the blond youth who had come back from the dead.

"That's true. The first time playing the game, it's mainly about seeing what the dungeon is like. It's not actually that important." Liu Feng knew that the first time you enter a game, it's usually just about watching a show. He wasn't some protagonist with a special background who would be incredibly difficult in the first dungeon and still manage to clear it perfectly.

Then Liu Feng sensed something in the sky. He looked up and saw three suns standing in the sky, overlapping each other. This visual sensation was very uncomfortable, and he felt a sense of nausea and absurdity.

Three forces, three paths, three destinies

People standing at the crossroads of life

Choose your destiny!

[Implantation, Mutation, Inner Demons]

"What a charade." Liu Feng licked his lips, suppressing the fear he had felt earlier. The game's official explanations for these three abilities were already detailed, so after a slight hesitation, he activated the Inner Demon Path.

Some analysts have already thoroughly researched the three types based on the data. The Inner Demon Path has a certain combat power in the early stages and the highest potential in the later stages. Although it has disadvantages such as insufficient combat power of the main body, for someone like Liu Feng who follows his heart, summoning Heart Demons is the most fun.

Then Liu Feng felt his mind ascend into the sky and Integration into one of the suns. He then felt something seep into his body, take some things out, and then Integration into something else, returning to his mind.

"The 8,300th experiment on inner demons, Integration the element - Gresta's Shadow Magic." A string of information flowed through the system, finally reaching Angriel, the Lord of Dreams and Falsehoods, and was recorded.

When He split from Gresta, He followed the connection between the Dreamlands and found an ordinary world. This world was no different from the main world on the surface, and there were not many twists and turns in the shadows. The highest level of personal combat power was nothing more than the power application skills passed down through experience.

Furthermore, this world doesn't have much advanced technology; it's just an ordinary world. At most, the Dreamlands in this world is a bit more active than in the main world. So, Angriel settled down in this world.

"The rules governing matter and energy are extremely strict, making it difficult for an individual to influence this world through mental power alone, which is why there is virtually no extraordinary power." Angriel continued his research into this world.

"So such a world is more conducive to my research on the power of the players." Angriel thought to himself, if the players follow the path of module skill resonance, then they don't have to worry about being rejected by the main world before becoming Breaker.

If Angriel can enable these humans to unleash extraordinary power in such a strictly rule-bound world, then it will be a major step forward in analyzing the power of the gamers. In the game, Lu Li may even be able to turn the tables and become the player instead of a pawn.

Thus, Angriel influenced powerful figures in various countries through his dreams, and together they created this so-called game. By combining technology with the power of the Mask of Original Sin, they produced what was called a virtual game, but in reality, it was an instrument mask that allowed consciousness to enter this Dreamlands world.

Angriel resides in the Dreamlands world and has completed the basic transformation of this world. As for the so-called three fundamental abilities and game skill modules, Lu Li has indeed studied these things, but he is still far from being able to imitate them, so they are basically half true and half false.

Take, for example, the previous ability to modify inner demons. Extraction the illusions in the other person's mind would normally involve Extraction the concept of those illusions, fusing them with corresponding extraordinary objects, and finally materializing the fused objects into various things.

However, although Angriel has done some research on information concepts, it is still quite difficult to Extraction them, let alone on a large scale. Therefore, Angriel performed a spurious Extraction in this step, Extraction an unreal concept of replication.

The subsequent fusion of concepts and extraordinary items was genuinely done by Angriel, and the fused items were all quite good, including various extraordinary items and even the powers of his other Avatar. However, the fusion technique might not be very advanced, increasing the possibility of inner demons rebelling from 50% to 100%.

In the subsequent manifestation of things, Angriel had some research on this technique, but it was not complete. Therefore, the manifested things all had some degree of impurity in order to complete the manifestation.

Even considering only the basic ability of the Inner Demon Path, over 65% of it is a fabrication.

Therefore, even if players gain power in the Dreamlands, it will be suppressed to zero by the strict rules of reality. Only as players adapt and gradually fill in the illusions to make it real can they use their abilities in reality.

At that time, Angriel's research on the game must have made a significant step forward. It also meant that Angriel had reached a very deep understanding of the rules of this world, enabling him to work with Gresta to control the dark side of this world.

"Is this my ability?" Liu Feng received the information from the game, his lips twitching as he looked at the mass floating in the dark liquid.

[Manifestation Ink: Words written with this ink can materialize the things described within. The realism and power of this materialization are closely related to the level of detail and rigor of the description, as well as the amount of ink used.]

"So writing something is the only fate for a struggling writer like me?" Liu Feng bit his lip, directing the ink to form three characters in the air: a long sword.

Then Liu Feng grabbed the ink and pulled out a longsword. Liu Feng raised the sword and swung it around, striking the concrete ground. With a crack, several nicks appeared on the blade, and even a long, narrow crack appeared. He estimated that after two more strikes, it would break in two.

"What the hell is this?!" This shout didn't come from Liu Feng, but from a rather thin man next to him. His body was convulsing and he was lying on the ground, but even that couldn't stop his shout.

Liu Feng then learned that the skinny man's name was Wang Xizhi, and he was not the famous calligrapher. After entering the game, he chose to Mutation his muscles in order to have a strong body. He had just been testing his ability, but because he couldn't control it properly, his whole body muscles twitched, and he even foamed at the mouth in some places.

Upon hearing Wang Xizhi's words, Liu Feng looked at the longsword in his hand and suddenly felt that his abilities seemed quite good.

The previous chapter should have been chapter fifteen; the chapter title was incorrect. Sorry.
