Chapter 232 231. Method to crack the [story]

Is it okay if it’s not the first time to lose?

Lloyd couldn’t help but complain in his heart.

Although the butler described this ‘cost’ lightly and advised him not to be nervous, the actual loss might not be as easy as he showed? After all, this is a ceremony for the seventh level to the eighth level.

He continued to ask:

“So what I have to do is, as a ‘reader’, crack the [story] of the other two strong men as much as possible, find their loopholes, and let you win in the end?”

“Yes, although it’s not easy, I believe you can do it. You are a child who never disappoints people.”

The butler nodded.

Lloyd thought about it again and realized the importance of himself as a ‘reader’ in this ceremony. He also understood why the butler had taken a fancy to him two months ago and wanted to earn him to join the group.

At that time, he did successfully crack a part of his [story] and showed his strength in this aspect.

And compared with strength, ‘trust’ may be more important.

In a game like theirs, if the "reader" they find is unreliable, a traitor who deliberately acts or plays a bad role, then all their efforts will be wasted.

And it happened that because of his sister's relationship with Miss Desta, the butler could trust him, or in other words, believe that he would not betray him.

Of course, Lloyd would not have such thoughts. He and his sister had received a lot of care from the butler and Miss Desta in the past, and they would definitely do their best to help the butler win this important ceremony.

Moreover, when the butler successfully completes the [Transcendence], he will have another big and thick leg of the eighth level to hug.

But at the same time, Lloyd also had to consider the worst result, so he asked tentatively:

"This... How long does it take for a strong man like you to prepare for such a [Transcendence]?"

He didn't even dare to ask how much money and resources it would cost, for fear that the pressure would be too great and his performance would not be normal.

"It's not too long."

The butler replied.

Lloyd was relieved immediately.

But he immediately heard the butler add:

"The eighth [transcendence] of the [materialization] system is special, but compared with other systems, the cost is not too high. This attempt took me more than 20 years to prepare."

"Ah??? How much???"

"Alas... So I didn't intend to tell you this, just because I was afraid that you would have a burden."

"No, what if I lose..."

The butler still smiled indifferently and answered lightly:

"Then I won't blame you. After all, this is not your responsibility alone. It's also because my [story] is not complete and true enough. At most, I will spend another 20 years to embellish it. For me, this is nothing, so don't put too much pressure on yourself."

"Even if you say so... Well, what about the strength of my two opponents?"

Lloyd asked again.

"Of course, they are all young and promising talents like you. One is a fourth-level investigator of the [Law] system; the other is a fourth-level scholar of the [Intellectual] system."

"Ah? But I am only the second-level?"

Lloyd raised two fingers.

"Rank is not important. In our [story], there is no essential difference between the second and fourth levels. What will really be tested is your mind, mentality, rationality, cognition, and even experience."

The butler said, and smiled again, encouraging:

"What's more, those two young people are not as dazzling as you. At such a young age, they can be recognized and appreciated by people like Mr. Tiltus, Mr. Demani, and even Master Elfreddy. So they should be the ones who feel nervous at this moment;

And I am also quite confident in my [story] and will not lose to those two guys."

It can only be said that although the butler is older and more stable than he is in the notes, he can still see the temperament and figure left by the young and frivolous boy in him.

Lloyd was also infected by his confidence and nodded vigorously.

Then, the butler began to teach Lloyd some practical knowledge of the [materialization] system, especially the knowledge of targeting and cracking [story].

Lloyd was of course listening attentively, and his mind was constantly memorizing, thinking and recalling.

Emmmmmm, why do these things taught by the butler not match what I got from analyzing the unknown fragments?

The [materialization] knowledge he got from analyzing the fragments before was very basic, briefly explaining some principles of [materialization], and how to cultivate one's own [materialization], that is, [projection]; and a little bit about how to interfere with other people's [materialization] ability.

The basic principles are similar to the butler's description, with only some differences in details and understanding. This is probably because the butler, as a high-ranking strongman, has his own unique insights on the basic principles.

As for [projection], it does not involve today's theme [story], so the butler did not mention it.

But in the end, there are obvious differences in the descriptions of the two sides on how to interfere.

To put it simply, the housekeeper's method is to deeply experience the content of the [story], find out what kind of 'position' you are in, and use this as a starting point to speculate on your [trajectory] in the [story] and what you may encounter. [Plot], and then discovered the flaws.

To give a specific example, it's like Lloyd became a high school student in [Story], sitting in the second-to-last row by the window. His deskmate was a beautiful girl with long black hair, who looked very cold, and was very good at music. Able to use various musical instruments.

Taking this as a starting point, if the next [plot] is that Lloyd meets another beautiful girl, and then takes her at the same table to form a band, and there will be a love-hate entanglement...

In the end, because he wanted to ride on two boats, one of the beautiful girls chopped off his head with a hatchet and died in the [story]. This [plot] is very reasonable and almost impossible to decipher.

Because the logic is reasonable, the motivation is reasonable, the contradiction is reasonable, and the development is reasonable.

And if the [plot] is changed to the school being suddenly attacked by a giant monster, I inexplicably become the driver of a giant robot, and then while driving the giant robot, I have a crush on a beautiful girl who looks like my mother...

In the end, because she was distracted by the battle, the beautiful girl was caught and eaten by a giant monster. She was so grief-stricken that she committed suicide on the spot. This [plot] is also reasonable.

Although it is unbelievable that super giant monsters and super giant robots suddenly appear in the school, as long as the [story] itself can justify itself and there is no problem with the logical development, it is still reasonable. Although there are loopholes, it is still difficult to find and crack. .

So what is unreasonable?

Probably at the same beginning, I became a ninja inexplicably, and my father was a seducer with a black and white impermanence. Then suddenly one day my village was attacked by a big bad guy, and I went there as the strongest young man in the village. To meet...

The two sides originally summoned their own substitute messengers to fight with each other in a battle of wits and courage, and the fight was inextricable. However, he suddenly fell into a trance, and a revolving door of life appeared in front of his eyes. When he came back to his senses, he had been chopped into two pieces at the waist, and his mouth was He was still saying stupid things that did not please his opponent.

This is a [story] full of errors and omissions that can be easily cracked, because there are too many flaws. Not only are the background settings and power settings chaotic and disorderly, but the plot development is also illogical, and the final ending is even more brainless. So as long as an ordinary person with normal logical thinking can easily escape this kind of clumsy [story]

"Although it sounds simple, the great thing about [the story] is that once you enter it, your thinking will be disturbed and you will automatically become the 'character' we designed for you, and your behavior will follow our design The 'plot' unfolds...

Therefore, even if the [story] is full of errors and omissions, it is difficult to wake up in time, because it is often difficult for people to accurately understand themselves, let alone when their thinking consciousness is disturbed...

However, [Story] cannot read your thoughts and memories, the 'role' we set for you may not perfectly fit your heart, and the 'world' we design may not match your understanding and understanding of the world. Cognition...

So it is still possible for you to realize that this 'character' is not yourself, and this 'world' is not real. This is the key to cracking the [story]. "

After the butler summarized it, he concluded:

"Under our game rules, the [story] we prepare for you is extremely tempting. You will often be a perfect 'perfect' character, with the 'image' that everyone wants to be. Very Maybe even if you realize something is wrong, you will become addicted to it and find it difficult to extricate yourself...

“So, you must think clearly and always remember who ‘you’ really are.”

This is probably the butler's thinking and experience. Anyway, he has to discover and crack these obviously unreasonable loopholes to crack the entire [story], and the process is full of troublesome things such as philosophical speculation and self-awareness. In fact, It's quite a troublesome way.

Looking back at the knowledge recorded in that unknown fragment, a simple summary is as follows:

Not happy with a certain villain? Fucked him!

Not happy with an organization? Fuck him!

Not happy with a strong person? Fight him!

And some tips for maintaining self-awareness:

What is your status that allows you to sit in this position?

What kind of body shape can you hold in your arms with so many beautiful girls?

What kind of net worth do you have that allows you to spend money like this?

Anyway, after I realized that I might enter the [story], I repeatedly asked these three questions to keep myself awake...
