Chapter 140: The Bridge to the Sky

The words hit the adventurers' heads like a thunderbolt, buzzing, even if the Zerg invaded and Hercules came back to life, I am afraid that it would not bring everyone such a shock.

An NPC!

How is it that an NPC would discover the truth about the quest world?

Although the warriors of the wasteland were at a loss, all the members of the Broken Blade team had a thought at the same time: Could it be the ghost of the girl in white again?

However, this idea was only just born, and Shen Yi had already heard the voice of the girl in white in his mind:

"It has nothing to do with me. She said.

Shen Yi was slightly flustered, immediately confirmed that this was not an illusion, and said in a deep voice: "Then what is going on?"

He said this inexplicably, and everyone didn't know what to say, so they looked at him together.

The voice of the girl in white continued to sound in Shen Yi's head: "It's just a self-awakening plot character." ”

As the name suggests, self-awakening is the kind of change that occurs like Serena without the help of a girl's hand.

But how can the city make the plot characters self-awake?

The girl in white said lightly: "The city creates the world through the system, but the setting of the world is too complex and huge, and even the master cannot face it. For this reason, the original master formulated a complete set of system rules, and the system created the world according to the rules, many of which directly copied the rules of the earth. ”

"You're saying that the system creates the world, just like using a computer to write a file, the basic rules based on which the writing is pre-set, and the manager is only responsible for the input of instructions. In the process of writing, it is inevitable that some files will be automatically generated by the system. If these files are harmless, they are junk files, like some mortal who is also insightful but powerless to change. If these files are harmful, then it's a virus, like this Lunatic Master, or maybe you're ......"

Shen Yi whispered in English, and the adventurers looked at him together, and although they didn't know who he was talking to, they realized that he seemed to be in contact with someone.

Interestingly, the Lunatic Master was not in a hurry to make a move, and just watched him talk to himself.

To him, every move of these Heavenly Court envoys had a deep meaning, and he wanted to take this opportunity to increase his understanding of Heavenly Court. Although he can't understand English, sometimes you need more than just language to understand a person.

"Yes. The girl in white replied.

"But shouldn't everything he has experienced be a system fiction?"

"Human behavior is inherently dictated by memory. It doesn't matter if it really exists, what matters is that you think it exists, and it affects your character. The Lunatic Master is not a virus, but his comprehension of the laws of the system is a virus, which is automatically generated when the various factors interact with each other at the beginning of the system's creation of the world, and is not affected by the city, unless they are interested in creating this world manually. ”

"That's a big deal for the Supreme Council. Shen Yi smiled bitterly.

The Supreme Council wouldn't be stupid enough to build a quest world on its own, just as you can't use 0s and 1s to knock out a Windows software. And since the software is written by the system, some bugs and bugs are inevitable - the system itself has countless vulnerabilities.

At this time, Shen Yi already understood.

The creation process of the entire task world can be roughly understood in this way - the manager first enters the program, and then the system generates the world according to the instructions.

In the generation instructions of the Immortal Sword World, what the disciples of Shushan stole should have been a dustless sword, and they entered Miao Jiang and became the leader of the Moon Worship Sect.

However, because the Three Halal Sutras are automatically generated in the world of Fairy Sword as a rule system, and they are not controlled by the will of the council, a new plot is automatically generated.

What the Moon Worship Sect Master stole was no longer the Dustless Sword, but the Warp Sword Qi Thief.

At the same time, because the Lunatic Cult Master is in contact with the true scriptures, he also has an understanding of the rules.

When these many elements collide, a natural result is that the Lunatic Master becomes a self-awakening plot character.

However, the awakening of the Lunatic Master is not complete.

What he knows is still only the tip of the iceberg, at best, he knows the creation and destruction of the world, and he looks more like the inventor of some apocalyptic theory, even if this prediction is accurate, it doesn't mean anything.

He didn't know where it came from, why it existed, and why it was destroyed.

He didn't know anything, and what he said was everything he knew.

Just like a person looking at the stars, the so-called insight into the heavens and the mastery of the operation of the heavenly way are nothing more than speculations about the direction of the world after all. For the higher worlds, there is a lack of understanding because of the lack of awareness.

If you look at the Moon Worship Master from another angle, after abandoning all the background, then he is like a protagonist who has had an adventure, looking up to the sky, and sighing, "Heaven is impermanent, unpredictable, we are the frog at the bottom of the well after all, and we can't see through this heavenly immortal." ”

If you are more ambitious, you may shout: "The destiny of heaven treats me like this, I am not convinced, and I will act against the sky."

But in the eyes of "heaven", you can't change your identity if you see through it or not, and you can't change your destiny whether you succeed or not.

In other words, the world of fairy sword that we have experienced is not a unique special case, but has formed a fixed pattern, just like a software with design flaws, as long as it is started, defects will inevitably exist. Shen Yi said after clearing his thoughts at this moment.

"Yes, but it's not a big deal. Although the Lunatic Master is self-awakening, he is still within the constraints of the system rules, and can still be killed by adventurers, and even destroyed with the destruction of the world, without forming any system problems. ”

"Why does the city still attach so much importance to the use of the maze mode for full supervision?"

"Because the Lunatic Cult Master is unwilling. The girl replied, "He tried to change his life against the sky, shatter the void, become an immortal, and make all kinds of efforts to achieve this." In human terms, it is to ascend to the catastrophe, and in the language of adventurers, it is to leave the mission world and go to the bloody city to become a real free human being, a member of the adventurer. ”

Shen Yizhi took a breath.

He didn't expect the Lunatic Cult Master to have such a "grandiose" idea.

Of course, in the understanding of the Moon Worship Master, it is to ascend to the calamity and become an immortal, and the adventurer is his calamity.

It's just that the calamity has passed, how can he soar? This is something that Shen Yi can't understand.

The girl in white has continued:

Of course, he didn't know that adventurers were never free, and even if he succeeded, he would only jump from a small cage to a large one. ”

"Everyone is struggling, and I have nothing but respect for trying to break free from the shackles of fate. Shen Yi bowed to the Moon Worship Sect Master as a sign of respect.

Then he continued to say to himself: "Hearing you say that, is there really a chance that he will succeed?"

"Yes. The girl in white once again gave him a shocking answer: "The characters in the plot are the existence of the energy generation of the system, and they cannot exist alone under normal circumstances. This is also the reason why the city wants to grab people from the earth and become adventurers. Because only earthlings are energy beings outside space, and they are born to enter and exit space. ”

Shen Yi had already said: "Therefore, all the lives generated by the energy of the system must depend on the adventurer to exist. Like Megatron, Tina, summoning soldiers, they all do. However, it seems that some special circumstances can also make the life formed by energy exist independently. ”

"In the third rebellion, adventurers create subsystems. Through the subsystem, they made many attempts. One of them is trying to escape from space. ”

"Escape from space?"

"Yes. It is not only fighting to the death that it is called resistance, but running away is also a form of resistance. Adventurers once tried to design a prop that could break through the same space barrier and escape directly from the city, and the name of this prop was the Sky Bridge. ”

"They failed?"

"No, they succeeded. It's never difficult for a space where dreams come true. ”

But they didn't get away. ”

"The special props that can open up the two worlds may not be very practical, but they consume a lot of energy. The value of the system is not based on strength, but on consumption. ”

"Just as the value of a commodity depends first on cost, then on the market, and finally on utility. Shen Yi fully understands this. If everything is based on practicality, then rice and water should be the most expensive commodities in the world.

Speaking of this, Shen Yi also understood a little: "Although the adventurers have completed the design, they find it very difficult to obtain it, and because it is a subsystem design, the ratio of effort and return may not be appropriate......

The girl in white interface: "The most important thing is that the spatial passage that the bridge can create can accommodate a small number of adventurers passing through. If you are going from inside the space to outside the space, you can only have one person at most. ”

Shen Yi nodded: "This is definitely not a good thing for a group of adventurers who are united and determined to resist. The only way to escape does not bring everyone hope of freedom, but will destroy the confidence to fight to the death, and even lead to civil strife, so they finally choose to hide it. ”

"Yes. The girl in white replied.

"So there is also a bridge in the fairy sword world?"

"There is no bridge in the world of fairy swords, but there is a record of the bridge in the Three Halal Sutras. ”

"So this guy wants to build the Bame Bridge on his own, break the catastrophe and ascend, and enter the city? Yes, since the Babel Bridge can open up the inside and outside of the space, it is not a problem to connect the inside and outside of the mission world. Ha, that's funny, a character who wants to be an adventurer and gain independence and freedom? I wonder what kind of interesting story this kind of thing will produce when this happens. Shen Yi looked at the Moon Worship Sect Master and said with a smile, he really admired the crazy delusions of this naturally awakened plot character. Although his character is also system-generated, isn't this kind of audacity and arrogance at all odds a characteristic inherent in human beings?

"If he succeeds, then he will become a new systemic threat. ”

"Is there a big threat from you?"

"Those are two completely different beings. At least for the time being, all he wants is to escape, and even if he succeeds, it is unlikely to have a disruptive impact on the city. ”

"But anyway, it's always a nuisance, right? That's why the city takes a maze mode and monitors the whole process. The mode is not important, it is the opportunity to monitor it. And what they are afraid of is not a Lunatic Master, but a Lunatic Master who has successfully escaped from this world. ”

The girl in white didn't speak, apparently acquiescing to this fact.

"But if that's the case, why do they start the world, and if the world is going to be problematic as soon as it appears, it's a flawed version, why don't they give it up?"

Managers don't have the ability to make corrections, but they at least have the power to choose whether to use them or not.

The girl replied, "Have you forgotten how you got into this world?"

Shen Yi was stunned, and then he remembered that the start of the fairy sword world was because of the task command card.

Since the Sword and Fairy World already exists in the sequence of the system's mission world, it automatically becomes the content that can be commanded by the mission command card, which is also a rule that the Supreme Council cannot interfere with.

Of course, I believe that they will never like this practice of the Purgatory Sect. It's just that the Purgatory Sect knows whether this is taboo or not, it's hard to say.

Wait a minute!

Shen Yi suddenly had a flash of inspiration in his mind, and shouted: "Tongtianqiao? Damn, this is what they want?"

This time he shouted it directly in Chinese, and the Moon Worship Sect Leader immediately changed color when he heard the name of the Sky Bridge.

Shen Yi has already shouted: "Yang Zheng, more than ten days ago, you sent someone to the capital to steal things, is it related to the construction of the bridge to the sky?"

The Moon Worship Sect Master's whole body trembled, the bridge to heaven was a big secret that he tried to change his life against the sky, but he didn't expect this Heavenly Court envoy to already know.

He was shocked in his heart, although he didn't answer, Shen Yi had already seen that the facts were correct.

He shouted: "We have been fooled, the Tongtian Bridge is the purpose of the Angelic Holy War!" Yang Zheng, if you are building the Tongtian Bridge in the mountain behind your cultivation, I suggest that you better send someone back to take a look at it immediately. If I'm right, I'm afraid someone is already going to attack your bridge by now!"

"What did you say?" the Lunatic Master was taken aback.

"Shen Yi, what are you talking about?" Wei Chi, Bai Jingang, and the others were puzzled.

Shen Yi scolded angrily: "I'm saying that someone rang the Wanshi Bell, not to deal with us, but to lure away the Moon Worship Sect Master and steal the bridge...... That's a prop that can open up the two worlds!"

"Props to open up the two worlds?" Everyone was puzzled, what is the use of this thing of angelic jihad?

Shen Yi said sharply: "Don't you understand? The props that can make the life of the plot go out of the world, of course, can also allow people from outside to enter freely! This is what the Purgatory Sect wants!"
