Chapter 140  : In the System Space, I’m the King.

As an internet veteran, Fang Ning understood the vagueness of this. Usually, if the litigant parties tried to explain themselves, it would only make the matters worse. Furthermore, it was impossible for Anderson to go out and explain it themselves, and N’gun even became the material for equipment, so no one would be able to say anything.

Fang Ning comforted the System, “The other Supreme Challengers were not stupid, they won’t come and challenge you now.”

However, there are no walls that do not leak, sooner or later, someone would found the truth of N’gun’s self-destruction, and people would want to avenge him. After all, the attraction of money was strong, especially when money makes the world go round.

The System could only listen to Fang Ning’s advice. Now that the Dark Tournament was out of the equation, the System followed Fang Ning’s instruction and went to a small city north of Qi City to unveil the map there together with Brett the black dog.

A few days later, the organizers of Dark Tournament had sent them the winning reward — thirty million USD as well as a bunch of cultivation ingredients.

Having the reward falling from the sky reinforced the System’s feeling of content, but at the same time, it was even more irritated. Even as it was farming monsters, it would nag Fang Ning with things like, “We’re so shortchanged. I have to pretend weaker in the future and learn the art of playing dumb and gain advantages. Set up a walkthrough for me.”

Compared to its annoyed master, Brett was really happy.

Its master had asked it to master the Atmospheric Morality Technique before his return within a month, but all of a sudden, he returned to ask it to test the ritual for summoning Dragon God, meaning it could avoid the dreaded cultivation.

It realized that as soon as it started cultivating Atmospheric Morality Technique, it would start itching on every part of its body. Most importantly, whenever it watched Animal World 1 , it would stop being interested in the mating scenes, feeling they were bland.

This was even more apparent when it looked at its teacher, Xue Ba the yellow dog, and noticed everything that felt wrong — the prim and proper look whenever Brett brought up about finding a bitch 2 , the way it never salivated anymore, its calm and collected speech, all unlike its initial reactions.

Not only that, the deeper it cultivated, the colder it looked, it could probably attract more bitches that way.

However, after thinking it through, Brett still decided to procrastinate and observe. If Xue Ba would completely lose all interest toward bitches due to cultivation, Brett would immediately try and excuse itself from the technique.

The System did not know about Brett’s thoughts, naturally. It only followed Fang Ning’s suggestion to unveil the map, striving to connect all the Northern territories together so it could manage close to home.

After all, the Vitality Crop farm was stationed near Qi City. They need to build a proper defense to prevent anyone from stealing or destroying the farm.

The System did not know many of the terms Fang Ning spouted, but it knew the Host would not trick it in the things that count.

One midnight, in a small area in the city the System was working to reveal, Vigilante A hit a thief on his back, making him unconscious, and flung him into a green zone.

The System nagged Fang Ning again, “I shouldn’t have used the Heavenly Sword Techniques. A tournament like this, I could get money, materials, and fame all at once, but I could only participate one battle! The Truth Department were becoming stricter and stricter, everywhere I looked I could only get tiny monsters, this is so not fun…”

Fang Ning ignored the System’s whining, he was busy… playing his game.

After all, the System’s whines were all targeting him, he only needed to pretend that he did not hear…

In the past few days, he had been arranging the System’s advancement plan, he did not have time to play games anymore.

Now that they could finally utilize the trump card to escape from virtually any life-threatening situation, he finally had the mood to play the Battle of the Beasts again. He had heard that the game just had a huge update.

He first browsed the official forum and immediately realized the extravagance of the update — every response in the forum had been good, the forum was full of praises to the developers.

Among over ten thousand threads and posts, none of them were criticisms, this was unheard of in the history of game updates. Of course, it could be that moderators deleted the criticism posts very quickly, after all, the game had a huge background.

Everyone was saying with the new function, they could basically play in bed, even though it was still a normal 3D game…

Fang Ning just could not wait after reading the posts, so he logged onto the game. As soon as he did, an update notification popped up.

“Dear player, you are one of the verified cultivators, we are happy to announce that you can unlock the newest function we have implemented, the Spirit Control Mode. The control is as follows:”

“Please use the cultivated spiritual sense to recite the coded spell below…Code XXFSAFA2332: Justice has long arms, and it never misses any of its targets. If it misses, please upgrade…”

Fang Ning was pretty speechless when he saw it. It was the same coded spell, so it looks like the code was bound to him. As long as he recited the code, the game would be able to recognize him.

Upon realizing that, he immediately changed form into the white dragon. ‘Sigh, with multiple Shadow IDs come multiple worries, but without his Shadow IDs, how would I play around without a care in the world?’

If he was banned, he could still horse around with other Shadow IDs, everyone who had been online would know that.

Fang Ning recited the spell, but the game did not respond. He recalled the time he unlocked the cultivation module, the game similarly did not respond until he recited the spell for a few times.

So he continued reciting for several times until the game finally reacted.

“Dear player, please continue.”

“Two, close your eyes. The game screen will be transmitted directly into your spiritual sense. If you experience any discomfort, please open your eyes immediately and resume standard control mode.”

Fang Ning closed his eyes, and he did not have to wait long before the login screen appeared in his spiritual sense.

After a while, Fang Ning opened his eyes again.

He thought of a question, ‘Does my intelligence immediately become like Sir System when I play games?

‘Why do I have to listen to the game notification and close my eyes?

‘I can’t close my physical eyes, because Sir System is using it…

‘If I close my physical eyes like the game meant for me to, Sir System would have immediately gone berserk and stopping my internet and electricity…

‘I have been using my spiritual sense to look at things anyway, I’m used to it. The ones I have closed now were the white dragon form’s. It was just an appearance, not functional at all.’

As expected, after Fang Ning reopened his eyes, he could still see the game screen in his spiritual sense.

He immediately started getting used to the controls. Compared with other people, he had been playing the game with his spiritual sense for at least half a year, he was already proficient in it.

‘Hey, after updating, do I not have to worry about Sir System stopping electricity and internet when I’m playing?’ Fang Ning suddenly thought of an advantage of playing games this way.

“Hahaha!” Fang Ning laughed out loud after he had thought it through. With this, the System would have one less way to limit him, he no longer needed to feel threatened.

Fang Ning immediately started farming bosses…

Controlling the characters with spiritual sense directly was fast. The speed of a human thought was something mouse-controlling cannot compare with.

The only problem was that it would be impossible for normal people to immediately be proficient in it, they would have to train for a while to get used to it.

However, Fang Ning had no problem with it, he was used to it almost immediately. In that sense, his impeccable control in-game had upgraded to become a godly reflex speed, it was like he had turned on God mode.

The bosses’ attacks were shown to him in bullet time. If the character itself did not have a speed limit, Fang Ning would have been able to farm the bosses until the bosses question their own existence…

Fang Ning was humming a tune as he defeated bosses after bosses. He chuckled occasionally, seeing his level shooting upward.

The System asked, “What are you chuckling at, Host? Even I could feel your intense thoughts. You were thinking something along the lines of not being afraid of me stopping the electricity and internet?”

Fang Ning answered confidently, “That’s right. Now that I can connect to the server directly with my spiritual sense, I could receive the game screen directly without the need for a computer. Moreover, the game has an inbuilt forum that I can use to browse online. I could do whatever I want from now on, don’t you dare to threaten me…”

The System said, “Oh, didn’t I say ‘In the System Space, I’m the king’ the other day?”

Fang Ning felt a sudden unease, “What are you gonna do?”

[System Notification: The Host’s Interdimensional Spiritual Link had been suspended.)

Fang Ning was immediately crestfallen, “How could you be so cruel…”

The System said, “If I can’t farm monsters with to my heart’s content, don’t expect you to be able to…”

Fang Ning had almost beaten a boss, he was trying to spawn an equipment.

He immediately tried to hoodwink the System, “I’m doing an important test, quick, reconnect me. This technology was so powerful, you don’t even know. In the future when we encounter its variation, you would be severely disadvantaged if you don’t know about it.”

The System said, “You’re not jerking me around, are you?”

Fang Ning explained, “Of course not. Did you forget what Anderson said about the conversion between spiritual sense signals and electronic signals? This game must be using this technology. People wouldn’t be able to visualize the game screens by themselves, would they? The servers must still be hosting these data, and the electronic signals from the data were converted into spiritual sense signals for the players to accept spiritually…”

The System said, “Sorry. I am a martial arts-based System. The technology you are describing is too complicated, I can’t understand. Give me an example.”

Fang Ning jeered, “Keep pretending, would you… Example it is. You remember the Land of Heritage, don’t you? The monsters in there are super strong, you said any one of them would be stronger than Anderson.”

“If they used spiritual sense to control a bunch of powerful weapons, and used people to remotely control them to attack, the agility and efficiency of that cannot be surpassed by drones and missiles. After all, these combat AI were still not comparable to human thoughts.”

The System said, “For such a long description, you sure described my mechanical puppet clones pretty well. You can remotely control them with spiritual sense, but my mechanical puppets are stronger.”

Fang Ning was defeated, “Those can be mass produced and industrialized, can you mass produce your puppets? Until now, those experience points are still immediately depleted as soon as they come in, not even a huge surge of experience point could fill up this experience sinkhole you dug.”

The System said, “True. I shouldn’t underestimate your human technology. Go ahead and find out about this technology, what else can it be used to do?”

[System Notification: The Host’s Interdimensional Spiritual Link restored.]

A notification from the game popped up, “Player Dragon Ascending The Heavens’s Spiritual Link was broken, player determined to be offline, your character has died. We wish your first experience playing with Spirit Control Mode was fun.”

‘Oh, what fun,’ looking at the game notification, Fang Ning helplessly selected to log in again.

The System said, “You reminded me, there’s a good place to farm monsters…”

Fang Ning said nonchalantly, “Go wherever you want to farm. Remember to ask Brett to prepare to summon dragon god. Now, don’t interrupt my gam- no, technology testing.”
