Chapter 204: Creating Rules (2)

"Rule generation in progress..."

"You must choose one of the following three restrictions as your limiting condition."

"1. Prohibited from having both feet off the ground simultaneously." Reêad latest novels at novelhall.com

"2. Prohibited from physical contact with the opposite sex."

"3. Prohibited from using modern technological products."

"What the hell?"

Hearing these three options, Gu Yi's face turned pale.

Each restriction was more perverse than the last.

Option one meant he couldn't run or jump, and even when sleeping, he would have to sit in a chair with his feet always touching the ground.

Option two meant he couldn't help Xiao Xue or interact with Kanon, and he would have to avoid any encounters with women.

Option three was even more extreme; phones, breathing helmets, and even houses here were all modern technological products. To avoid breaking the rule, would he have to live in a thatched hut and hunt birds with a slingshot?

After some thought, Gu Yi decided that option one had the least severe side effects.

The power of psychological suggestion in this dungeon was incredibly strong, as there were almost no individuals with strong mental resilience in this world.

If he could publish the novel as planned and use psychological suggestion to gradually brainwash those around him, planting the seeds of resistance in their minds, then when the time came, with a single call, "His" rule would collapse without a fight.

"I choose one."

"Rule generation complete."

Gu Yi felt a shiver run through his body and looked at Er Gou.

To test his ability, he secretly used psychological suggestion on Er Gou, telling him to open the window in a moment.

"How do you feel?"

"Not bad."

"What is the limiting rule?"

"Can't have both feet off the ground simultaneously."

"Huh? So you can't run or jump?"

"And I have to figure out a way to keep my feet on the ground even when I sleep."

"Ugh... that's tough."

Er Gou shook his head and turned to open the window.

Gu Yi grinned and leisurely asked, "Why are you opening the window?"

"I feel hot." Er Gou paused, turning to look at Gu Yi, "Did you just do something to me?"

"Sorry, I just wanted to test if my ability worked well." Gu Yi shrugged. "Turns out, you can't always stay alert. Once you let your guard down, I can easily use psychological suggestion on you."

"Alright, just don't do it again. No more psychological suggestions on me in the future."

Faith is the strongest weapon against the weird power.

In the weird world, darkness prevails, but Gu Yi can still find that bit of light in the midst of it. He hasn't given up, so why are you wallowing in self-pity?"

Xi Wang smiled noncommittally, "Alright, Team Leader. I was just venting. Let's get to work."

...

The next morning.

Gu Yi got up from his desk, rubbing his shoulders. Sleeping hunched over all night left him feeling sore all over.

He stretched a bit and immediately went to work in the mine.

To have time to slack off, Gu Yi used his skill on the supervisor, making him order Gu Yi to work in the office.

This way, he could legitimately use the supervisor's office to write his novel.

At his current pace, he would be able to publish his novel by tomorrow morning.

The workday ended.

Gu Yi checked the time. According to the information Kanon provided, Xiao Xue went to bathe every evening at 6 p.m. This was the perfect opportunity to catch her.

He left his workstation early and waited at the entrance of the women's bathhouse.

Right on schedule, Xiao Xue arrived. Gu Yi quickly stepped forward and grabbed her.

"What are you doing?"

"Come with me."

Gu Yi blinked and used psychological suggestion on Xiao Xue.

Xiao Xue showed a strange expression but still inexplicably followed Gu Yi to the casino.

After sitting down, Xiao Xue suddenly snapped out of it and started making a fuss, refusing to stay.

"You kidnapper! Let me go, or I'll call the police."

"I'm doing this for your own good," Gu Yi said coldly. "Constantine is coming to your nightclub tonight. If you go, there's a high chance you'll die."

"Even if I die, it's none of your business!"

Gu Yi used psychological suggestion on Xiao Xue again, finally calming her down. But less than ten minutes later, she started acting up again.

"Let me out, ah——"

"Ah, enough of your screaming!"

Gu Yi struck the back of Xiao Xue's neck with his palm.

Xiao Xue rolled her eyes and passed out.

Er Gou stood silently behind the door. Even though he knew Gu Yi was doing all this for his sake, he still felt heartbroken.

"She'll be alright, won't she?"

"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing," Gu Yi said, rubbing his palm. "She'll sleep until at least tomorrow morning."
