Chapter Four: Hypnosis, Activate!
Page (1/3)
After saying so much, most of the newcomers from the Northern Ice Continent did not believe Chen Mo’s words. Coupled with his act of beating up the man with glasses, after a moment of hesitation, they followed the cursing man and left the alley.
Chen Mo was utterly indifferent to this.
Although he knew this was a team battle and these newcomers, if left unprotected, would become fodder for the enemy and cause negative points for his team... it didn’t matter.
Compared to wracking his brain over complicated, tenfold troublesome measures to bring this abstract bunch back to the Main God Space, granting each of them uncontrollably high personal side storylines and reward points, greatly increasing the difficulty of the next plot world, and facing the risk of this group splitting the team... it was better to just let them die, rack up more points in this round, and strive to offset the negative impact of their deaths.
Moreover, he could use these people as bait to pull off some schemes...
Thus, more than half chose to leave, leaving only Ares, J, and an unknown man and woman behind. The man’s name was Osas N. Benton, apparently a terrorist; the woman was... she refused to reveal her name, crying whenever asked. It seemed she had suffered family violence and intimidation by gangsters, enduring many excessive abuses that left her mentally unstable.
Chen Mo remained calm, as he had anticipated this.
After everyone introduced themselves, Chen Mo leaned against the wall and looked at them all.
“Since you all chose to stay here, it means you at least somewhat believe in the existence of the Main God Space and the impending Cataclysm… I have some hypotheses about the main quest, but this isn’t the place to elaborate. The cinematic storyline will likely appear tomorrow or the day after, so we still have some time to prepare.”
“Mr. Ares, I heard your surname is Emmans during your introduction. Could you contact the family factions in this world to arrange a place for us to stay and some supplies to prepare?”
...
...
After a few phone calls, Ares arranged for Chen Mo and the others to stay in a luxurious five-star hotel. They sat together, eating simple meals and drinking cold drinks while analyzing the intelligence.
“First, allow me to introduce myself again.”
Chen Mo took a sip of cola and cleared his throat.
“My name is Chen Mo. My ancestor was a Reincarnator. After his unfortunate demise, I inherited his legacy. Today is the first time I’ve come to the Main God Space.”

“What did you say!” Jenny was the most excited, slapping the table in shock as she stared at Chen Mo.
“Your ancestor was a Reincarnator? And you inherited the title to become the new Reincarnator entering the Main God Space?”
“Yes.” Chen Mo nodded calmly and lied without changing expression. “My ancestor was once a powerful Reincarnator but suffered severe damage in an accident. Even exhausting most of his reward points and side quests couldn’t heal him.”
“Knowing his time was short, he returned to the real world in his final moments and died there… After his death, I inherited all his belongings. The various secrets of the Main God Space were also told to me before he died, so I have some understanding of it.”
“If you don’t believe me... well, look at this.”
Chen Mo swirled the glass of cola in his hand in front of everyone, then stored it into the item space of their chat group. To the others, the bottle of cola vanished from thin air before their eyes.
Their eyes widened in disbelief.
“How did you do that? Where did the cup go?” J asked directly.
“Obviously, this is one of the legacies my ancestor left me... called Subspace Fragment, or something like that.”
With a flick of his hand, the cola reappeared in Chen Mo’s hand and he placed it back on the table. Then, the entire small table vanished at his touch!
Those who had thought this was some trick or magic finally believed Chen Mo’s words after seeing such a large object disappear and reappear right in front of them. This was beyond any scientific or magical explanation.
“This... this is incredible,” Ares murmured, his eyes filled with shock and reverence.
The others felt the same. Only Chu Hao calmly sipped his juice before asking, “Besides that, did your ancestor leave you anything else? Like life-saving tools or something?”
“Hehe, well...” Chen Mo shifted his thoughts to the chat group and silently chanted:
“Chat group, lottery!”
Clatter, clatter, clatter...

A strange sound echoed, and a torrent of numbers poured onto the virtual chat screen like a landslide, finally stopping at a result—
[100]
Before Chen Mo could react, a black eyeball the size of a fist with a positive pole symbol in its pupil appeared in his item space.
The chat group thoughtfully attached the item’s effects and name.
[Hypnosis Eye (Yang)]
[Divided into negative and positive poles, this ancient and mysterious pair of artifacts has survived to the present day, possessing the ability to control others’ thoughts and minds.]
[Using the Hypnosis Eye, one can hypnotize and manipulate creatures within a radius of several kilometers, altering their thoughts, cognition, and memories. It can also adjust the body through hypnosis, temporarily enhancing physical functions or promoting or suppressing certain structural functions.]
[Using the Hypnosis Eye consumes the user’s mental energy and exerts a certain mental load. The more individuals hypnotized and the stronger their mental power, the greater the burden on the user’s mind. In severe cases, it may cause the user to fall into a coma and experience memory and cognitive errors.]
[Using the Hypnosis Eye to strengthen the body does not overdraw life or damage the body, but increases the user’s mental load and only works on non-supernatural beings.]
[Note: Holding one pole of the Hypnosis Eye grants immunity to its power but cannot解除 previously applied hypnosis. Only holding both poles can解除 already effective hypnosis.]
Wow, a hypnosis app!
What a great item! Truly worthy of being a 100 dice point item. Lucky indeed. According to the description, even someone like me without energy cycling can use it by consuming mental power... really a good thing!
Moreover, it will play a major role in the upcoming actions.
