This panel is called the "Sacrifice Panel."
After retiring, Chen He would often stay up late playing a game called "Deceiving the World," a mobile game set in a post-apocalyptic martial arts background.
The game starts by giving players a simple task. After completing it, the player's character will awaken an accessory.
And the accessory that Chen He's character awakened was this Sacrifice Panel.
It's quite a powerful panel.
Now, the fact that the panel accompanied him through the crossover, how could he not be excited? The panel only has one page for character information. At this moment, a dialog box of two fingers wide appears on the character information page.
Content of the dialog box:
[A corpse has been discovered 路 Common person, just deceased, meets signing conditions]
[Sign a contract 路 Death? Note: (Contract 路 Death) has no limit]
Chen He took a deep breath of the fresh autumn air, quietly calming his excited mood.
Then he silently recited: Sign!
The next moment, a gray light that only he could see flew out of the panel and entered the body of the young beggar.
In the panel, the dialog box scrolls up and down:
[Contract 路 Death, signed, sacrifice?]
[Please sacrifice within three minutes]
Chen He breathed twice more and silently recited again: Sacrifice! The content of the dialog box scrolls:
[Sacrificed, feedback 40% flesh, 10% improved vision]
[Your vision has improved]
When the dialog box ends and disappears, Chen He couldn't help but groan in his throat, and suddenly his whole body felt hot, his skin turned red, and he began to sweat profusely.
Chen He clenched his teeth tightly, avoiding making too much noise. He grabbed the straw beneath him tightly, keeping his body stiff. In a few breaths, a wave of heat flowed through his knees, continuously piercing his deformed legs.
"Crack, crack..." The bones of his legs were corrected by an invisible force, changing the flesh and growing again. It was a bone correction pain. Chen He had experienced this in his past life, but always with anesthesia.
At that moment, his face was contorted in pain, the veins on his neck bulging, his teeth grinding, and he was on the verge of fainting. The pain of transformation came quickly but also disappeared quickly, leaving an indescribable sense of relief.
At the same time, his body strength increased significantly, and his arms became slightly thicker. However, he suddenly felt a sharp hunger in his stomach. Additionally, his vision seemed a bit clearer. It was probably the result of the 10% improved vision feedback.
Chen He sat up immediately, feeling the presence of his two legs clearly, the feeling of having muscles and bones connected and being able to control them freely. Previously, although he could feel his legs, he always experienced a strange sense of rupture and strangeness when trying to control them.
In his past life, he had also suffered a leg fracture, but with the help of science, he only recovered to 80%, remaining lame. The miraculous ability of the sacrifice panel was evident.
Unable to wait any longer, Chen He slowly lifted the hem of his pants, which were wide but dirty, and felt his legs. The bones of his legs had already been corrected, but due to the lack of muscular tissue from the feedback, they still appeared only skin and bones.
Chen He slowly got up and paced around the wooden room. Although he could walk normally, it would be very difficult for him to run. The idea of relying on these legs to escape instantly faded from his mind.
Chen He approached a corner and picked up a blood-stained stone, which he wedged into the crack beneath the wooden wall. The body of the young beggar appeared the same as before the sacrifice. The only difference was how quickly his body cooled.
Chen He paid no attention to that and returned to his original corner. He opened the Sacrifice Panel.

Chen He casually browsed through the personal information. The Sacrifice Panel was not much different from the "Cheating the World" mobile game. But this was not a gaming world; life was precious.
The Death Sacrifice was what he had just performed. As for the Living Sacrifice, there were three ways to sign the contract: first, subdue the opponent and force them to sign; second, deceive and manipulate them into signing voluntarily; third, incapacitate the opponent and sign while they are unconscious. Regardless of the method, once the contract was successfully signed, the feedback from the sacrifice would be as expected.
Closing the panel, Chen He tucked his legs into the wide trouser legs and tied them loosely. Due to the loose pants, there wasn't much difference in appearance before the leg transformation. He was still "Chen He, the disabled"! To escape the fate of being bait, he would have to sacrifice several more people.
If he could successfully ambush and sacrifice someone, Chen believed the outcome would be much better than the young beggar's. Additionally, the servants of the Eastern family ate well and dressed warmly, so their life expectancy should be longer than that of beggars. If he was lucky, maybe he could change the brief destiny of this body. With these thoughts, Chen He could only shake his head with a bitter smile.
With his mediocre skills, successfully ambushing someone was easier said than done. He decided to take it step by step. He scattered his scattered thoughts and closed his eyes to sleep. After all, only with a clear mind could he face crises.
"Metallic sound!" The sound of metal chains woke Chen He. It was already dawn and the entire inside of the wooden house was clearly visible. The roof was thatched and the floor was also covered with it. The body of the young beggar lay motionless on the straw, with pale lips.
Chen He ran his hand through his disheveled hair, hiding his eyes behind the bangs and looked towards the wooden door. The iron chain lock on the door opened and then the door was pushed open. A young man in a short gray jacket entered and scrutinized the room with a stern look.
When the young man dressed in gray noticed him, Chen He mimicked the previous occupant based on his memory. He pretended to be afraid, hunching even further into a corner with his hands on his hips. At the same time, he babbled incoherently, pleading for mercy. The young man dressed in gray was already accustomed to such behavior and diverted his gaze to the body of the young beggar.
Seeing the motionless body, he took a few steps forward and bent down to inspect it. Chen He's heart raced in the corner. Although he had restored the appearance of the bound young beggar and knew the method of killing without leaving obvious traces, it would be suspicious to anyone for a healthy person to suddenly die like this.
At that moment, the young man in the short jacket suddenly looked up and asked, "How did he die?"
What do you think, should I continue or should I stop?
