Lust System: Harem Of Beautiful Women

Chapter 428: Doppelgänger Technique

Luis felt utterly speechless, thinking to himself, ”Young Master David, are you really this brainless? No matter how much resentment you hold in your heart, saying such things when everyone is getting along so well is completely inappropriate.”

As expected, Bella revealed a playful smile.

Because Hail, who was seated at table number one, was watching intently, he clearly noticed the situation here. Although his face remained expressionless, it was enough for him to witness this scene.

Dominic’s expression shifted. He shot a fierce glare in that direction first, but his precious darling awkwardly turned his head away and ignored him.

He had strength but nowhere to direct it. He could only grit his teeth in frustration, blaming himself for his usual lax discipline.

Dominic quickly said, ”Young Master Luis, I am about to send him abroad. Please rest assured, he will not be an eyesore in your presence anymore.”

”Young and impulsive, it’s understandable.”

Luis naturally had to offer some polite, diplomatic words.

Soon, the host from the city television station took the stage. Everyone instinctively fell silent, a gesture of respect toward the organizers. Whispering at this moment would have seemed utterly lacking in decorum.

The proceedings that followed were rather dull. After the host finished speaking, Dominic, the president of the chamber of commerce, took the stage to deliver his remarks, followed by speeches from various leaders.

It was like an old lady’s foot-binding cloth, long, tedious, and unpleasant. Surrounded by people, Luis had to sit stiffly upright, unable to fidget, which made him even more uncomfortable.

After all, Bella was on his left and Nina on his right, both peerless beauties whom he had yet to win over. Being forced to remain still in their presence was pure torment.

Luis simply opened the System interface, which had already been updated.

”Ding... The dungeon mission (Human Wrench) reward has been generated.”

”Ding... For the first dungeon mission (Human Wrench) reward, the host may use one Blind Box to draw a specific item (Genetic Alteration).”

”The Gene item can effectively alter Bella’s genetic sequence, completely eliminating her physiological aversion to men, allowing the mission target to adapt to such relations, thereby reducing the dungeon’s difficulty.”

Just as Luis was overjoyed, the System added another message:

”Ding... The draw probability is 50%. If the draw is unsuccessful, another random item will be awarded.”

”Ding... Does the host wish to spend one Blind Box to draw the mission-specific reward item?”

A mission-specific item for a dungeon quest indicated that the System judged this dungeon could continue, which meant more rewards could be obtained.

Without the slightest hesitation, Luis chose to spend one Blind Box for the exchange.

A roulette wheel appeared before his eyes. The interface was split fifty-fifty, one side red and one side blue. The blue side read ”Specific Item (Genetic Modification),” while the other side displayed a large question mark.

”Ding... Does the host wish to activate?”

”Activate...”

The wheel immediately began to spin. Instantly, the number of Blind Boxes decreased by one. As for that one Attribute Point, it seemed somewhat redundant for now, and Luis had no use for it.

”Blue, blue...”

Luis chanted silently in his heart, but ultimately the wheel settled on the red side, firmly landing on that question mark.

Luis felt like cursing. Damn it, when would this rotten luck ever end? A fifty-fifty chance and he still couldn’t draw it, anyone would be furious!

”Ding... Unfortunately, you have missed the mission-specific item.”

”Blind Box opening...”

”Ding... Congratulations, host. You have obtained the item: Doppelgänger Technique (30 minutes).”

Luis didn’t even want to look at what this item was. He was frustrated to the extreme. With only a fifty-fifty chance and still failing, he even felt like chopping his own hand off.

Coming back to his senses, the speech on stage was still ongoing, truly, exceptionally aggravating.

Everyone sat ramrod straight, their gazes fixed intently on the stage as if the speech were of utmost importance. Even if they weren’t trying to curry favor, they at least had to appear engaged and avoid any criticism.

The atmosphere was stifling, making Luis feel extremely restless all over. He subconsciously glanced up.

At the neighboring table, David was whispering something to Deewa. Deewa wore a flirtatiously shy expression, while David smirked with a lewd grin. No matter how one looked at it, the scene seemed improper.

David noticed Luis’s gaze. Suddenly, he offered a sinister smile, picked up a notepad from the table, scribbled something, and tossed it over.

Luis picked it up and read: ”I’ll deal with you sooner or later. I’ll make you watch how those two big tits cry out when I fuck them.”

Originally, he hadn’t wanted to bother with this brainless fool, but those words instantly darkened Luis’s expression, revealing a rarely seen ferocious glint in his eyes.

Bella also sensed something was amiss. She didn’t know Luis very well. Although they had been intimate today, she only had a general impression of him.

At the very least, he seemed amiable toward others, not excessively aggressive, because she was a very pragmatic person.

If it had been any other man with lustful intentions, she would have been fucked in no time at all, not merely subjected to some kissing and groping.

Even though she had been taken advantage of, she wasn’t angry at all. Upon careful thought, she could accept all those threatening words. After all, this wasn’t some romantic fairytale; the adult world wasn’t so naive.

She glanced sideways at the note, then frowned delicately and said, ”Don’t pay it any mind. Nothing will happen.”

According to normal relational logic, she would have eagerly added fuel to the fire and kicked someone when they were down. But she was realistic and mature, and naturally understood how utterly laughable David’s so-called threat was.

It existed purely at the level of parental upbringing, so childish it made one want to roll their eyes.

When a sunset-industry entrepreneur, not particularly wealthy, took the stage to speak, David, this ”precious darling”, began to grow restless.

He had probably been briefed by his father about the other heavyweight figures. But given his current standing and wealth, which were no longer what they once were, his ability to take the stage was due to seniority and established reputation.

Even if not to curry favor with anyone specifically, there was still the worry of inadvertently offending some unknown individual, because in such settings, everyone cared deeply about saving face.

Everyone had ceased conversation, patiently watching the speaker on stage. At this moment, even excusing oneself to use the restroom felt impolite.

Luis was practically daydreaming, silently opening the System panel once more.

”Ding... System Item: Doppelgänger Technique (30 minutes!)”

”Time limit: 30 minutes. Allows the host, while maintaining the state of their original physical body according to their consciousness, to form an avatar identical to the life source entity at a special location.”

”Effect lasts for 30 minutes. After 30 minutes, the item expires and will not leave behind any related information, including DNA.”

Luis was first taken aback, then inquired mentally:

”What do you mean? Only half an hour? And no matter what I do, for example, if I beat someone up and they get injured, I won’t leave behind any fingerprints or anything like that???”

The System dinged and replied directly, ”Not only any physical evidence, but even surveillance footage and data will not exist.”

”What does that mean?”

Luis felt frustrated. His knowledge level was insufficient; sometimes even simple statements were hard to grasp.

”Ding... Item: Doppelgänger Technique (30 minutes.)”

”For 30 minutes, the host is unaffected and may act as they please. After 30 minutes, all information at the carbon-based biological level, genetic data, all code and data-related information, will cease to exist entirely.”

This was phrased in highly specialized terms. Luis’s comprehension was truly limited, and he couldn’t fully grasp it right away.
