Dirty Move

Explored worlds: League of Legends, Dungeon & Fighter, CrossFire, QQ Farm.

"I knew it, dammit!"

After making up a random excuse to dismiss Shen, who had wanted to beat him up to vent on behalf of the villagers, Li Ke sat in the back of the carriage. Covering his face as he stared at his system, he truly didn't know what to say.

Is he really going to lock horns with Tencent?

How could he even transmigrate into such a mini-game world?!

And forget the rest, why on earth did he bring back a corn cob??

Wouldn't it have been better to bring back some agricultural data?

And next time, is it going to be QQ Pets?

If it's really the Tencent series! Can't you just let me transmigrate into the Final Fantasy world?! Or any world where it's easy to gain extraordinary powers?!

Besides, the Final Fantasy world has genuine cat-girls!

Cat-girls that you can do this and that with, and then that and this!

And cat-girls are a matriarchal society!

You can legally have a harem!

Since it's all published by Tencent anyway, you can log in directly with a Tencent account! There's nothing impossible about that, right?!

If you have the guts, let me see a cat-girl!

Li Ke really wanted to flip the table. Of all things to explore, it had to be a farm. Doesn't that mean he could also end up in the worlds of QQ Speed, QQ Sonic, and QQ Dance?

He is a proper swordsman, a swordsman as cold as ice and as snowy as frost!

Farming! Dancing! Rollerblading! Racing! Participating in pet contests.

Is this appropriate?!

Is it?!

It is not appropriate!

"...Forget it, come to think of it, this thing might be a high-yield seed. After all, in that dream, this stuff could be harvested in just a few hours. It should be a pretty formidable trump card."

Li Ke took a deep breath, reined in his thoughts, and sighed, preparing to put the corn cob away. After all, it was a treasure he obtained from that world, and it likely inherited that ability to mature in a few hours.

If this thing is real, the fate of the entire world will be changed by him.

But at this moment, he finally noticed something wrong.

"Why does this corn have a fragrance?"

Li Ke peeled back the verdant, dripping corn husks, and then...

He saw the golden-brown kernels, which were emitting a strong aroma of corn. Even Shen, who was driving the carriage in front, couldn't help but look back.

"Wow, when did you roast it?! So fast?! And it smells so good!"

Shen wasn't surprised that Li Ke had corn; he knew Li Ke possessed a flaming longsword. He was just curious about Li Ke's speed.

But Li Ke's face was as black as the bottom of a pot.

Bringing back a corn cob was one thing, but it was actually cooked, dammit!

Forget it, forget it, if I get angry, who does it benefit...

Li Ke took a few deep breaths, snapped the corn cob—which had verdant husks on the outside but was already cooked on the inside—into two halves, handed one to Shen, and started gnawing on the other.

Shen was a bit resistant; he had been taught since childhood not to eat things that were stolen.

"This isn't right... after all, it's stolen..."

Li Ke shoved the half-cob directly into his mouth, making the annoying guy shut up.

Shen wanted to spit it out, but the next moment, he was shocked by the taste of the corn. This fragrance, this sweetness—it was a wonderful sensation he had never experienced before!

He had never eaten such delicious corn in his entire life!

He pulled out the corn that made him look like a roasted pig in surprise, his expression flickering between light and shadow, feeling as though he had been corrupted by Li Ke once again.

He even began to feel a secret terror in his heart.

"Could it be..."

That stolen corn really tastes better?

He felt as if he were walking on the edge of a cliff; if he took just one more step, if he took one more bite of the corn, he would fall into an bottomless abyss and become someone he didn't recognize.

Li Ke saw through his thoughts and, while eating the suspiciously delicious corn, added a remark.

"I bought it! Eat up!"

"Oh."

Shen immediately started eating happily, leaving Li Ke to sigh to himself that this guy was truly easy to fool.

But he didn't know that as long as it wasn't stolen, Shen was fine with it. As for whether it was truly not stolen...

Does he even know?

He had no idea!

The future of the Kinkou Order was truly worrying.

However, just as the two were gnawing on their corn, a massive flock of birds suddenly took flight from the jungle in the distance. Li Ke and Shen exchanged an instinctive glance, but both acted as if they hadn't noticed and continued moving forward.

Still, Li Ke quietly shifted closer to his spear, and Shen accelerated his chewing.

Yet, as Li Ke looked at the corn cob in his hand and then back at the distant jungle, he couldn't fathom how those Noxus assassins had tracked them down, let alone how they had managed to get ahead of them. But...

He couldn't help but feel that they were like characters in a martial arts film; knowing full well that assassins and traps lay ahead, charging in so brazenly was truly foolish.

So, he narrowed his eyes, assessing the mental energy he had left—barely enough for one simulation.

"So, the 'simulation' during a level-up not only costs nothing, but it also adds an extra world... Useful, I suppose, but not by much. Still, it comes in handy right now."

Li Ke didn't have any particular thoughts on gaining an extra world; after all, he could usually find new worlds on his own, though it would consume mental energy.

But a simulation that cost nothing after leveling up was at least somewhat beneficial.

He just wondered if he could continue to level up in the future, or what kind of effects further upgrades might bring.

But for now, it was clearly time to deal with the trouble ahead.

A simulation didn't guarantee a hundred percent success rate. Even though he had easily survived this ordeal in the simulation, this was reality, and one could never be too careful!

Therefore...

Li Ke poured his mental energy into his soul world, dove into that Void, and chose to blur his memories.

Year 1: You were born, a healthy boy.

Year 2: You grew up sturdily.

Year 3: You grew up sturdily.

Year 18: You joined Global Risk.

Year 19: You encountered a zombie crisis. To protect the safety of the civilians, you died in a horde of corpses.

Based on this simulation, you have received the following rewards. Please choose one to claim:

1. Maximum HP slowly increased by 10, Vitality +20.

2. Full set of Global Risk equipment.

3. Slight favor from the entire Fox Hunter mercenary organization.

Li Ke chose option 2 without hesitation. Then, while pretending to pull these items from the pack on his back, he handed a grenade to Shen, who was looking at his bag with curiosity.

"Do you know how to use this? No? See this pin? Pull it, then immediately throw it into that woods."

Shen looked at Li Ke's pack with suspicion; he was curious about how Li Ke had stuffed all these things inside, but he was even more curious about what these items were.

"What is this? And what is that? They look so strange."

Shen looked at the high-explosive grenade in his hand, curiously tugging at the pin. He even picked up the pistol Li Ke had set aside, pointing the barrel toward his own eye to inspect it.

Li Ke fell silent for a moment, then spoke.

"A Piltover dagger."
