The fake prince was exposed at the beginning, and I took office as emperor on the spot

Chapter 2: Traveling through time to become the emperor

"I see. I now fully understand the random career experience system."

Gu Fangchen calmly pulled a piece of gauze curtain and bandaged his hand simply.

He swept aside the scattered pearls on the bed, sat down casually, crossed his left leg and placed it under his right knee, and rubbed his chin with his elbow.

——This is his habitual brainstorming activity when he gets stuck.

"Mirror in the Dust" is a groundbreaking single-player game with a realism of up to 90%.

Naturally, it also has its own casual gameplay and various secondary occupations.

However, the secondary professions in this game do not require the process of employment or job transfer, but rather "being in one's position and doing one's job."

You only need to do the corresponding things in the game to get the corresponding secondary job.

If players want to be the [Emperor], that's totally fine.

Whether it is to overthrow the rule or to establish your own country, it is your ability if you can succeed.

But in "Mirror in the Dust", such an operation is very difficult.

Because here, "national destiny" is a concrete thing that can be perceived.

Even if you found a group of primitive people in the deep mountains and forests and made them their emperor, the Wei court would sense it in the next moment because you were dividing the country's destiny.

The yellow robe was put on in the morning, and the Blood-Clothed Guards arrived in the afternoon.

However, for players, it's just a matter of dying, but there are always people who enjoy dying in this way.

Some strategy guide groups have also compiled how many different professions are available in the game.

Before Gu Fangchen traveled through time, the total number of species counted was 272.

This is not all!

As a professional strategy guide uploader, Gu Fangchen has of course also conducted in-depth research on this secondary career system.

Because of different secondary occupations, players will be given two additional special skills.

And some of these unique skills will have unexpected miraculous effects in certain situations!

Even in the save file where he succeeded, there were several professions that had to be obtained during the process.

But no matter which save file he has, the Emperor profession, which is too difficult to obtain, is not in his plan.

Now it is randomly obtained at the beginning of the game. I have to say, this cheat is really cool.

Although the professions and experience times are random, the advantage is that the pre-process is omitted, and some professions with extremely demanding employment conditions can be obtained directly.

"Also... the two skills granted by the [Emperor] class, I remember them being ridiculously powerful."

Gu Fangchen looked up at the two skills.

[Skill 1: Fulfilling the Will of Heaven (Passive)]

[Explanation: You are destined by heaven and share the fate of the nation. Your luck is extraordinary.]

The first skill is a passive skill that is permanently effective.

According to the results of player testing, the effect of this passive skill mainly affects "probability events" and "event probability".

Simply put, you will become luckier and the outcome of everything will be positive.

——If you jump off any cliff, there is a high probability that you will be caught by a branch and pick up a unique martial art.

It can be said to be the embodiment of "When the time comes, heaven and earth will work together."

This is also the reason why the court will immediately gank him after he takes office as emperor.

Obtaining this passive ability is equivalent to forcibly seizing a part of the country's fortune for your own use. It would be strange if the emperor of Wei in power did not get angry with you.

"Speaking of which, my appointment now should also attract the attention of the court, right?"

Gu Fangchen couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

"But too many lice won't itch, and too many debts won't worry..."

He narrowed his eyes.

"The Zhenbei Palace may seem prosperous, but it's being closely watched by the Blood-Robed Guards. If the imperial court notices it, it could become a trump card in my hand."

For Gu Fangchen at this moment, the first passive skill is just icing on the cake.

The second active skill is the one that can really help when the time is right.

[Skill 2: Life and Death (Active)]

[Explanation: You hold the imperial power, and can decide life and death. After using this skill, you can designate one person to be killed each day, regardless of conditions.]

That's right, this is a knife card.

The real King of Hell calls out, and whoever he calls will die.

Because the job of [Emperor] is extremely difficult, so difficult that if you don't take the wrong path, the day you take office will almost be the day the game ends.

Gaining such a skill wouldn't ruin the gaming experience. But now, Gu Fangchen had acquired such a heaven-defying skill right from the start!

"It's a pity that the experience time for this profession is only one day..."

"That means I only have one chance."

Gu Fangchen nodded his chin, the dim candlelight reflected in his eyes, flickering.

Princess Zhenbei only gave birth to one child that year.

As long as the blood relationship between Gu Yuandao and the King of Zhenbei is confirmed, his identity as a fake prince will be a foregone conclusion.

What’s more, the cleverness of Prince Zhenbei lies in that he chose to recognize his relatives in court.

Let the emperor directly, or rather... force the emperor to admit it directly.

At this moment, the emperor should have ordered a thorough investigation of what happened that year.

Whether Gu Yuandao or Gu Yuye is killed, things cannot be reversed.

"How can we break the deadlock by killing only one person?"

Gu Fangchen closed his eyes.

When he opened his eyes again, a glimmer of eagerness flashed in his eyes.

"Then let's just go big!"

He is a player who traveled through time to become an emperor, so why should he be so timid?

If the start is not good, then break down the entire situation and reorganize it!
Gu Fangchen jumped off the bed, looked at the spiritual patterns on the door, reached out and brushed across them, feeling them carefully.

Although his body is now in a mess and there is no spiritual power left in his body.

But based on his gaming experience, there are at least three ways to break general restrictions without spiritual power.

Coincidentally, given the contempt the people in the palace had for Gu Fangchen, it was absolutely impossible for them to set up advanced restrictions.

But Gu Fangchen had no intention of lifting the ban.

On the contrary, he planned to strengthen the ban.

The consensus of the entire palace now is to put Gu Fangchen, whose identity is still uncertain, into solitary confinement to prevent him from causing trouble.

Wait for King Zhenbei to come back before making a decision.

Even if he had a way to get out now, he would be taken back.

Without any strength, one can only be bullied by others.

If you want to get out, you must do the opposite...

Because now in the entire palace, there is only one person who can temporarily get him out!

Gu Fangchen used the pearl he found on the bed as a medium and dipped a needle in blood to draw an unstable "Hui Lan Formation" on it.

——Although drawing a formation with the naked eye is a fantasy for ordinary practitioners, but are you kidding? He used to draw it with a mouse, okay?
The pearls in the room of this dandy prince are not ordinary items, but the tears of mermaids that were tributed by the Sea Country.

It can be used as the eye of the formation.

Although Gu Fangchen himself is unable to practice, his body has been marinated with three top-level poisons, and his blood is comparable to natural treasures and can be used to guide spiritual energy.

Because the level of the "Huilan Formation" is about three or four levels higher than this restriction.

As long as you put it into the gap where the forbidden spiritual pattern is running at the right time, it is completely possible to cover the original spiritual pattern and change its properties.

Although there is a theoretical probability of failure, don't forget that he now has the passive skill [Feng Tian Cheng Yun].

"It's done!"

Gu Fangchen looked at the pearl in his hand that emitted light blue wave-like spiritual patterns and took a deep breath.

I held onto the door frame and waited for a few seconds.

He immediately pressed the bead with the "Huilan Formation" drawn on it onto the restriction.

Almost in an instant, the pearl turned into powder.

The spiritual patterns on it instantly merged into the restriction and entangled with each other.

A layer of fuzzy light blue spiritual patterns appeared on the walls and beams on all sides of the room, violently spewing out spiritual energy like a tide.

Huilan means the echoing of water waves.

This is a counterattack formation.

"boom!"

Gu Fangchen was suddenly knocked to the ground by the spiritual energy. His face was pale, his chest was shaking, and he shouted at the top of his voice:

"Mom! It hurts!"

After shouting, he spat out a mouthful of blood.
