In Mooncell's imaginary number space, cheating was not merely a figurative comparison.
After all, the imaginary number space itself had been woven by Mooncell. As a Bug and data loophole within Mooncell, Ye Ting's mere existence brought countless anomalies to the imaginary number space.
Naturally, he intended to make good use of that.
Because it was an imaginary number space, everyone's abilities came from preset values. For most people, Mooncell possessed detailed information from their real lives, so their ability values within the imaginary number space were fixed. Their avatars within Mooncell were exactly the same as they were in reality.
Just like an online game, ordinary souls were like regular players. Entering the imaginary number space was like entering a server provided by Mooncell. Naturally, they had to follow Mooncell's rules and use the virtual characters Mooncell gave them.
As for Ye Ting—
As a man Mooncell could never fully perceive, Mooncell had no way to grasp Ye Ting's specific settings. Thus, Ye Ting was like a hacker who had found a server vulnerability, giving him the opportunity to alter his own character values.
In an online game, such behavior was called cheating.
Moreover, Mooncell did not possess sufficient intelligence. In other words, not only did it lack anti-cheat measures, it did not even have a GM. As a result, cheating players like Ye Ting could not be restrained at all.
Of course, even cheating had to follow fundamental rules.
That was, one could not create something from nothing.
You could add one zero after a 1, two zeroes, or even ten zeroes, but you could never turn a 0 into a 1.
In other words, Ye Ting could make his abilities infinitely stronger within the imaginary number space, but he could not conjure abilities he did not possess
