Volume 15: Organisms and Organisms and Organisms Chapter 59: Hypocrisy
Players who play adventure games all have a very inexplicable sense of ownership that they take for granted.
That is, they will firmly believe that they can get the best treasures and rewards, or they firmly believe that what they want will appear in a certain copy. They are extremely distressed about things that they are powerless to change, but they are almost fanatically enthusiastic about things that they can change.
They believe that they are the protagonists of this world, that their every move can change the structure of this world, and that they can make the world dance and turn with them. This is not a bad thing, but rather a very good thing. As long as it is used properly, it is a fundamental driving force. In fact, this is indeed the case. Players are so keen on various adventures and activities because of this idea.
If you don't have a strong sense of self, how can you join the game to seek your own peace and tranquility? Only those who have a certain degree of self-awareness, but the reality cannot satisfy them, can immerse themselves in . Because the material planning of reality has reached its established limit, in this desperate world without superluminal engines, no magical particle waves, and even communication is carried out by quantum resonance, the quota of materials has long been determined. A world without any hope, or a world without any hope for ambitious people, is right in front of us.
With too much energy and nowhere to vent, they will naturally turn their attention to familiar or unfamiliar directions. And games are obviously the best place to vent such excess emotions. He does not have to bear legal responsibility but has excellent results. Even death is just an illusion.
Nothing can better promote the spirit of ownership than this world, and everyone is so sure of it.
In fact, this is indeed the case. After arriving in this world, players often rely on their immortality to accomplish one great thing after another. The live broadcast posts and videos on the forum are enough to give every grassroots player a lot of unnecessary confidence. This feeling is called "I can do it too", which is an unnecessary self-confidence. Generally speaking, if you encounter someone with this mental state, the result will probably not be very good.
Obviously, the two players present were the best. Out of trust in the deputy brain or confidence in their own professional qualities, they decided to investigate and find out the truth. If they succeeded, that would be a good thing. Even if they failed, it could become a good story or a reason to brag.
After all this calculation, why not do it? Although it took a long time to play the game, it is not difficult to practice it now that I have the knack.
The two of them hit it off immediately, and decided that there was something wrong with Holy Light, and they began to exchange information with each other.
Sitting in a corner of an empty restaurant, the two men ate steaks and exchanged opinions.
"I think the Holy Light gathered the players to launch some kind of unspeakable large-scale spell, because many of the bytes and meanings on it belong to an entire large-scale system, and they themselves are very taboo about it. Although the confidentiality work is done very well, they don't know that this will attract the attention of smart people. As long as you analyze it carefully, you can easily see the existence of those patterns."
"In battle, they always urged me to use my full strength, and asked other players to continuously use their magic power. It does seem that there is some unspeakable secret in it, but how can I explain it? Why do they use such a crude method to carry out these arrangements?"
"Now that you put it that way, I think there are three possibilities."
Taking a sip of wine and looking at the clear liquid in the crystal glass, the male wizard pondered for a moment and whispered his thoughts.
"The first is that we are simply overthinking. This is a general plan of details, incorporating the system settings in a reasonable way. This is the first and least fun one. It can even be said to be the most unlikely one. Because Les Miserables has never been so blunt and crude from ancient times to the present, this is unlikely."
"Hmm? Go on."
After taking a bite of the juicy steak, the druid signaled the man with his eyes to continue.
"The second possibility is that we don't think too much about it, but it's all for our safety , which is also a boring option."
Sitting on the chair with his palms spread out, the mage player showed an embarrassed expression.
"This means that everything we do is just some conjecture. However, if the Holy Light Cult is the most powerful organization in the game, I don't think they can be so shallow as to not even prepare anything and just use some junk to fool the players. So there is only one possibility left."
"That is, the Holy Light Sequence has concealed it from everyone in this world. They intend to use the players' magic to do some horrible things that cannot be revealed. Obviously, we have now grasped a considerable plot thread. Didn't you notice? Those cold robots seemed to be able to only respond in one way. It was obviously because their urgent need for energy had caused them to suspend the maintenance of these mechanical slaves and make corrections."
"If such a huge amount of magic power is not prepared for players, it is basically impossible. In other words, we just need to wait for the plot to unfold and we will have a chance."
This is something I speak from experience.
The mage player raised an eyebrow at the druid's confused expression and drank the wine in one gulp.
According to the normal game thinking, you usually find clues, find tasks, trigger celestial phenomena, tasks appear, and then accept tasks to complete everything. Mage players and druids have reason to believe that the changes in the Holy Light Sect are the beginning of a large-scale continuous task. It may even be the prelude to a large-scale expansion pack DLC of the level of Pale Expedition. After all, this involves the entire player system and involves the large-scale tasks of countless players.
But unfortunately, most people didn't see it, and opportunities only come to those who are prepared. Through the experience on the forum and various videos, the two had already judged that this mission was likely to be the legendary faction mission, and they only needed to strengthen themselves and wait for it to unfold .
However, just as the two were feeling smug, a regretful voice came from the shadows behind them.
"It's already amazing that we were able to trace it to this point, or to imagine it through some random thoughts. Unfortunately, the ending is not what you thought."
