24 Chapter 38 Part 1

The suspense mystery puzzle game *Shattered Star* became a global sensation upon release, receiving widespread acclaim. Yet no one has cleared its hardest difficulty. A month later, the developers announced a massive cash prize for the first to beat it.

Jiang Xiao enters the instance to conquer it. If he’s going to play, he’s going to play the hardest mode!

But just after entering the game, a bug hits, and Jiang Xiao is pulled inside.

Good news: He drew a Lucky Item.

Bad news: He drew the Blindness buff, starting the game sightless.

Jiang Xiao: Are you seriously messing with me like this?

He checks his game panel.
