Point of difference doom

Chapter 138 137: Differential Imitation

As a middleman, Dr. A is of course very happy to see his customers put forward demands.

And Dr. A happens to be an experienced person.

Through the ability to transfer souls that is close to cheating or even beyond cheating, A has many identities.

Different experiences in different identities are all his personal memories.

These memories are what Zhou Baiyu wants to know most.

But this time, Dr. A changed his previous character as a profiteer:

"Another area has disappeared. Jiang Xianwu, you are really an excellent alienator. No, to be precise, congratulations on becoming a legendary forerunner."

"Before you ask me these questions, I need to tell you something as a former pioneer."

Zhou Baiyu knew that Dr. A had been a pioneer for a long time.

In a sense, the characteristics of soul journey are indeed born for the purpose of experiencing multiple lives.

A is more like the protagonist of a story.

"The Legendary Forerunners sound stronger than the Great Forerunners, but in fact you should know very well that the current Legendary Forerunners are far inferior to the Great Forerunners."

"As long as you reach the second half of the fourth level, you can be called a great forerunner. But the legendary forerunners are not ranked like this."

"When you become the top twelve active forerunners and reach at least the third level, you can become a legendary forerunner."

"So it's not that the legendary forerunners are stronger than the great forerunners, it's that your generation of forerunners is too weak as a whole."

This is a piece of trivia that, although not important, is more interesting to Zhou Baiyu.

The legendary forerunners currently in service are unique in the world. They are like smoke and smoke, awake and dreaming, looking at the vast ocean. They are in harmony with the light and dust, and they are committed to their careers.

Now, he also has Jiang Xianwu.

At the same time, Zhou Baiyu was also a little confused, what does active service mean?

"Is it possible that there are still retired forerunners? Or the forerunners of the previous generation?"

"You can call it the forerunner before Ragnarok. Aren't you curious about where the many great forerunners who have helped you come from?"

Zhou Baiyu was really curious.

Dr. A said:

"That era could be called version 0.99."

This answer made Zhou Baiyu stunned for a long time.

This sentence contains too much information.

At this moment, Zhou Baiyu realized that A had already begun to answer his question.

"you mean……"

"That's right, if I were asked to choose a version, hahaha, a version that is most worthy of my participation, I would definitely choose... the version before Ragnarok."

A’s eyes are full of yearning:

"Before Ragnarok, there was a time of melee among the gods. At that time, the world was also divided into many versions by various gods."

Zhou Baiyu interrupted:

"No, you are lying to me. Although the version 1.0 world I am in and the advance world are two different worlds, from what I have learned, the end of the advance world is not that long ago."

"Human beings in that world have also experienced a long period of peace. When Bai Ye's daughter Bai Ling was young, the end should not have come yet."

"In other words, the process from version 1.01 to version 1.44 only lasts a few years."

"As for the entire process from 1.01 to 1.44, the active Forerunners already existed, and Ragnarok happened a long time ago."

Dr. A said:

"What's the benefit to me from lying to you? It's not a good thing for a lie to be exposed. Jiang Xianwu, I didn't lie to you, haha."

"Before you got my notebook, can you imagine that the world of version 1.01 and the world of version 1.0 are two different worlds?"

Zhou Baiyu was stunned.

Dr. A said:

"How do you know that the 0.99 version I'm talking about is the advance world?"

Dr. A's words instantly made Zhou Baiyu understand something. He said in surprise:

"you mean……"

"Shh. As you continue to solve the puzzle, one day you will find traces of the existence of that world. Where do the demons come from? Where do the gods come from? Whether it is the corrupt species or the polluted species, what is their origin?

"

Dr. A made a shushing gesture:

"Of course, I'm not sure whether you can choose that version, but what I am sure of is that for you, some choices are too early."

"I'm just answering your question. If there is a version of this world that interests me, it must not be a certain version of the advance world, but... the version where God is."

Zhou Baiyu remembered something. Sister Lin said that she was from Kyoto.

He suddenly realized that the Kyoto in the real world, the Kyoto in the advance world, and the Kyoto in Sister Lin's mouth... were three completely different places.

In his mind, the current timeline looks like this.

In this world, there is a place full of powerful creatures. One day, the king of gods falls and corruption rises.

The world has begun a melee.

Next came the night of divine revelation, when new gods were born crazily and the world became even more chaotic.

As a result, the old gods began to consider successors and selected forerunners to fight for them.

Some of these forerunners became great forerunners, and some became saints.

But the outbreak of Ragnarok brought everything to nothingness.

It also brought the battlefield to the Vanguard world.

The advance world has gone through version 1.01 to version 2.49. With so many changes in the version, the advance world has reached the edge of complete corruption.

Next, is version 1.0 of the “real world.”

Zhou Baiyu suddenly clarified a relationship.

"Is it possible that... when one world is completely corrupted, it will spread to the next world and start a new battle?"

Dr. A clapped his hands and said:

"Congratulations on your correct answer. The stories belonging to the Great Forerunner's era have all come to an end. A few people have become middlemen after Ragnarok and can be regarded as the remnants of the era."

"Now, corruption has spread to the advance world, and is even... about to completely occupy the advance world. In a sense, Longxia, the area controlled by the old gods, is still lingering. What you are facing is the surge of corruption.

"

"If version 2.50 is the complete end of mankind, then the '1.01' version that belongs to the third world where you live has arrived."

"However, so far, I have not discovered the existence of the fourth world. We can call the three worlds - the real world, the current highest version, 1.0. The degree of corruption is so low that it can be ignored."

"The advance world, the current highest version, is 2.49. The corruption level is upwards of 90%, but less than 100%."

"Also, the origin world, the current highest version, is 0.99. Corruption degree, absolute corruption, complete corruption."

A's point of view was too outrageous, but after Zhou Baiyu thought about it carefully, it was reasonable.

Yes, the Night of Divine Inspiration, the Battle of the Gods, the Twilight of the Gods...

These major events seem to have happened a long time ago, but there are no traces of their existence in the advance world.

The demons seem to know that some miracles exist, but where do the demons come from?

The great forerunners have fought for this world, and the great forerunner Kuang Xun suffered even more from the inability of the forerunners to collect enough comprehensive information.

However, the history of the world protected by the Great Forerunners can only be found in the transfer station...

The timeline of the Forerunner world simply cannot accommodate the active history of the Great Forerunners.

So the answer is -

The world guarded by the Great Forerunners was completely corrupt.

After Ragnarok, the battlefield of rules has shifted to a new battlefield.

And if humanity fails in 2.50, then the final battlefield will be the real world!

Zhou Baiyu broke out in a cold sweat.

The significance of guarding the advance world and opening up the future for mankind is even more important.

"You have completed the recruitment and got an opportunity to choose yourself, but my suggestion is... treat it normally. What people fear most is being too ambitious."

"Although I want to witness Ragnarok with my own eyes, that's me, and you are different."

"Jiang Xianwu, if I were you, I would choose a version between 1.01 and 2.49. However, you need to ask your other middleman. Now, we should talk about the next issue -

What do you need to buy?"

The answer given by Dr. A is version 0.99.

That version is most likely related to Ragnarok.

Zhou Baiyu said:

"I have to go to Sister Lin's place now. As for consumption, I have nothing to consume for the time being."

Dr. A shrugged and didn't hold back much.

Zhou Baiyu still has a good impression of this mysterious Dr. A.

Obviously, several middlemen have their own agenda. He doesn't know exactly what Dr. A is planning.

But I can feel that the other party and myself are still on the same front for the time being.

Although the other party's answer may not be useful, it also reveals enough information.

It made Zhou Baiyu feel that at least the trip was worthwhile, and he had a clearer understanding of the whole ins and outs of the end of the world.

That's enough.

…

…

Transfer station.

The pink light still had an ambiguous atmosphere. Sister Lin mixed the wine and said slowly:

"Welcome back, little brother."

Zhou Baiyu's favorable impression of this eldest sister is much higher than A's.

"Sister Lin, you should know about my clearance reward, right?"

The middleman does not know the customs clearance process, but he will definitely know the customs clearance evaluation and rewards of his pioneers.

After all, this is the job of the middleman.

Sister Lin nodded and said:

"The opportunity to choose your own version is very precious. You have also asked this question before, whether someone can choose your own version. Indeed, it has happened."

"But that's just a choice from a small range. This time you are different. The opportunity you get is to make a choice in a large range."

"So to get the most out of this option, you have to figure it out and understand the history."

"Of course, I have to congratulate you first, little brother. Congratulations on becoming a legendary forerunner and entering the third level."

The alienator, the alien, the alien, the alien mage, the lord of the supernatural, the order of chaos.

The third-level alienator has a very unpleasant name, called alien.

By the third level, other professions have basically undergone qualitative changes. However, alienators are still the same.

"But for us alienated people, the meaning of the third-level profession is just a measuring cup, which represents the beginning of your journey to the fourth level."

"Your initial difference rate will be reduced, and the positive probability after each alienation will increase. And your number of alienations will increase several times. Your physical fitness will be better, but it is also very limited, and it is still not comparable to combat professions.

, even if it’s the first level.”

"Other than that, nothing. There are no other changes. Essentially, in future battles, you still need to rely on luck, props, and teammates."

"Right now, everyone is talking about you."

Transit station, in the voice of the pioneer.

Everyone is talking about Jiang Xianwu. The speed at which he became a legendary forerunner is really too fast.

The Forerunners are actually in the same camp overall.

After returning from Jiang Xianwu's Gu Tower and successfully rescuing the snow demon, Jiang Xianwu's initial comments turned into overwhelming praise.

Especially the "Legendary Forerunner" means that his experience value is already at the top.

But what exactly does the Alienist rely on to reach such a top position?

luck.

There will always be people who wonder why Jiang Xianwu’s participation in the recruitment can no longer be seen...

This conclusion seems obvious——

Jiang Xianwu always passes the level with the highest rating. This seems extremely unreasonable.

Some people believe that the Forerunners themselves are participating in a game, and Jiang Xianwu is the one who cheats.

These words were said in a teasing tone.

But whether people are joking or teasing, they don't list possibilities that they have never thought of.

It's like people who have never seen a believer in the God of Gender and Diversity cannot understand how many gender combinations there are in this world, and how many layers of buffs a person can have.

He was joking, so he couldn't make such a joke.

Therefore, in the eyes of many people, Jiang Xianwu just relies on cheating luck to continuously pass levels.

"If he can reach the top, he must have something of his own." This is the positive view in the pioneering voice.

These people think that people who can reach the pinnacle position of the forerunners, how can they have nothing in their hands.

The counter-argument is: "Although we didn't get a full glimpse of the situation in Gu Tower at that time, tell me, if the alienated person, the first level, has no combat effectiveness, if he doesn't rely on unlucky luck, what should he rely on? Rely on his brains?"

"Don't be naive. Although the recruitments in the advance world are very similar to games, they are not real games! For us, some areas are unsolvable. The game will give you a reasonable pass condition, but the reality is not

meeting!"

"Except for the incredible luck, I can't think of anything that can explain his growth all the way. Of course, we are not bitter...well, it is indeed a bit bitter, but we are very happy that someone can reach that position."

Zhou Baiyu discovered that the legendary forerunners were probably really meaningful and valuable to everyone.

As a result, his "hard power" has not kept up, which somewhat makes people feel that the gold content of this title has been lowered. Compared with other legendary pioneers, it seems that he is a person who cheated by luck all the way.

Of course, everyone is very polite.

After all, the forerunners are not enemies. At least not yet.

Zhou Baiyu actually liked the content this time, at least it wasn't a boast that he couldn't bear, which made him less embarrassed.

Sister Lin said:

"How does it feel? Being called a cheater and a luck speculator. Do you feel bad?"

"They just told the truth."

After experiencing the island in the sky and walking up the stairs, Zhou Baiyu's character has indeed grown.

"The dangers I encountered along the way were indeed fatal. But Midel's place needs human guidance. If it were not a succubus, but other demons, I would be dead."

"In Gu Tower, I passed the level with the help of the alienated person's unique buff and the teasing of the God of Death and Reincarnation. Although I also found the secret of Gu Tower, without this teasing, I would have failed long ago."

"On that cruise ship, the endless mode happened to be the key. It gave me enough opportunities for trial and error."

"In the Kingdom of Light, I got good props from the beginning, and I also activated the Absolute Moment twice."

"Not to mention other kinds of positive alienation."

Zhou Baiyu admitted so frankly:

"Sixth sense player, great orator, alienation, and luck are all my weapons. I don't intend to defend myself, because all the people in history who have the last laugh...even those who endure the humiliation and endure the heavy burden are all the same.

Only by relying on cheating luck again and again can we survive all the way."

"And those who are not lucky enough have become regrets."

"People are eager to pursue a reasonable success, as if everything can be explained... But if that is the case, there will be no additional possibilities in the world."

"Because the weak defeat the strong and change destiny, when everything follows the rules and does not rely on luck, these words are the greatest contempt for logic."

"In this world, people have created various rules in order to eliminate many accidents, and the existence of rules will always create huge profits for those who do not follow the rules."

Zhou Baiyu looked directly at Sister Lin:

"I am an alienated person. I don't follow the rules. I cheat and am greedy for luck. Why not?"

Sister Lin clapped her hands and said with a smile:

"It's really good, little brother Jiang."

Zhou Baiyu said:

"Let them discuss it, Sister Lin. I don't care about this. I am even willing to spend all my advance points on a big gamble and do the best in cheating by luck."

Isn't that what gamblers are like? If they win, they will be young models in the club, but if they lose, they will work in the sea.

Sister Lin likes this attitude. This is the mentality of people who are born to be alienators.

"Sister Lin, I want to know, were those great forerunners also guarding the forerunner world?"

"Why do you ask that?"

"Because based on the information I know, the time they were active doesn't seem to match up."

Regarding this issue, Sister Lin, as a genuine intermediary, did not choose to tell Jiang Xianwu too much information:

"As for which version is the most important, different intermediaries may have different opinions on this matter. Little Brother Jiang, now you should retain this rare right to choose."

"As for your question, as a middleman, I can't answer you. There are some secrets that you can only dig out by yourself, but...just live on and don't try to understand the origin. Those powers are too far away from us."

"There's something I have to tell you. In the future, everything will be intertwined."

"Don't think that killing a big shot will change anything."

"In the apocalypse, if this big shot dies, the next big shot will take over."

"You have defeated the Night Demon and Desire Demon, and there will be other Night Demons and Desire Demons in the future."

Zhou Baiyu said:

"Then how should I use this right to choose?"

Sister Lin said seriously:

"Use it to protect and save. Your luck will not always be smooth sailing. People who rely on luck to make a living may eventually suffer from cold and hunger because of luck."

"One day in the future, maybe even if you gain a lot of powerful power, you will encounter many more powerful enemies. They may destroy you, or they may destroy your friends."

"Whether it's the advance world or the real world, when you completely lose someone, maybe you can change their fate through this right."

Although Sister Lin did not give the information that Zhou Baiyu expected, her words made Zhou Baiyu suddenly enlightened.

Yes, this may be a big backup for you, why should you rush to use it?

What's more, I currently don't have the ability to challenge critical versions.

Zhou Baiyu quickly calmed down.

At this time, Sister Lin showed a sly look:

"Brother Jiang, you said you are willing to spend all your advance points to play a big one?"

Zhou Baiyu was stunned and then said:

"I'm just giving an example, I don't really intend to do this."

"But you can try. The advance in your hand is worth a lot, so you might as well try it once, the blind box on the fourth side of the wine cabinet."

Zhou Baiyu was really moved.

While he was hesitating, Sister Lin said:

"I can't guarantee that you will definitely get something good, but I will use my power as a middleman to give you an advantage in gambling as much as possible."

Zhou Baiyu still hasn't made up his mind.

Sister Lin raised her voice and said:

"There is only one chance. As you get closer and closer to the fourth level, the advance value of your exposure to the fourth wine cabinet in the future will be higher and higher. Now, it is this price, but it will not be this price in the future."

"Damn it, it's a gamble!" With Sister Lin's words, Zhou Baiyu no longer hesitated.

So Sister Lin started mixing drinks.

Not long after, a glass of dark golden wine appeared in front of Zhou Baiyu.

The most expensive is naturally the best.

This glass of wine made Zhou Baiyu's feeling of being wealthy disappear.

But he is indeed a good gambler, and he has a sense of happiness in all-or-nothing gambling.

At this time, when the answer to the mystery is revealed, the happiness brought about by dopamine secretion is simply stronger than Midelle.

He raised the glass of wine, hesitated for a moment, and started drinking heavily.

Soon, Zhou Baiyu's body glowed with a faint golden light.

Sister Lin looked at Zhou Baiyu and smiled.

Zhou Baiyu also quickly examined his status, and finally found this thing in the characteristics column that he had exchanged for all his advance points.

[A parody show of the God of Difference and Chaos]

[Introduction: This is a very interesting feature.

Among the nine old gods under the King God, the God of Difference and Chaos must be the most naughty and mischievous God.

I believe that everyone must have met or acted as someone in their childhood - someone who likes to imitate other people's speech, imitate other people's movements, and even imitate other people's embarrassing looks. It's very annoying, isn't it?

But this is the fun of that god. It will mock the God of Time and Space, imitate his slow speaking speed, mock the God of Power and Destruction, imitate his likes to roar and speak, and likes to show off his strength in movements.

He will also put on glasses and learn the posture of the God of Knowledge and Wisdom.

He is so hateful, but he really looks like him after imitating him.】

[Effect 1: There is a certain probability that you can learn the abilities of other professions in the process of getting along with others. 】

[Effect 2: In rare cases, temporary career conversion will occur. During the conversion, all your alienated professional skills will be changed into other professional skills of the corresponding level until the state ends. ]

[Effect 3: Under the confusion of differences, the imitated profession may mutate. 】

Zhou Baiyu said "Huh".

After reading the description for the first time, he didn't realize how terrifying this skill was.

But soon, Zhou Baiyu realized the power of this characteristic.

In a sense, this is turning himself into a "pioneer version of Mark."

Mark can copy the abilities of others, and he may acquire the abilities of other forerunners, which will greatly make up for the shortcomings of the alienated ones.

"Mel also had this characteristic back then." Sister Lin said.

Zhou Baiyu naturally remembered Mel.

Great Forerunner Mel, like Sister Lin, is a fourth-level alienator and alien mage.

He is a rare genius. Both his alienation ability and combat ability are very powerful.

"With this feature, you can follow Mel's path."

In Sister Lin's heart, she always remembers this former comrade:

"Little brother Jiang, when you are strong enough, or even when you surpass them, I will find a way to tell you the things that belong to our generation as much as possible within my power."

"They... are not all dead."

Sister Lin's words can be regarded as confirming A's words.

Zhou Baiyu believes more and more that the third world, the world that was first occupied by corruption and pollution, does exist.

In a sense, Sister Lin's glass of wine is the answer to the question.

…

…

After two recruitments, I received one characteristic and one skill from Sister Lin and A respectively.

Although Zhou Baiyu is still a being with weak frontal combat capabilities.

But he is making step by step steps towards becoming an all-powerful strongman like the Great Forerunner Mel.

After completing the transaction from Sister Lin, Zhou Baiyu did not leave immediately.

He had a conversation with several friends at the transfer station and planned to change the topic in the first voice.

But soon, the topic of Pioneer Voice changed due to the arrival of another major event.

[Version 1.0 update announcement: The second round of defense mode has started. Please do your best to resist this round of invasion. The location is still Linxiang City.

In this round of invasion, we will try to attack from a different angle, hoping that the forerunners can show more possibilities.

When the invasion is completely dispelled, we will reward the participating pioneers with special props based on the performance process.】

At this moment, all the pioneering voices were discussing about the defensive mode.

Zhou Baiyu found that the discussion in Xianxingzhizhi could not produce any results, and soon after, he returned to Linxiang City.

Like the light and the dust, Xing Meng Wuchang also returned to the stronghold at the same time.

"Constantine, what happened in Linxiang City recently? Is there any strange pollution phenomenon? Or is there a powerful corruption species?"

The three of them were very anxious.

As a pure traveler, Constantine did not receive the announcement from the forerunners. Constantine was a little confused. He was also ready to celebrate the successful return of the three, but seeing the solemn faces of the three, he realized that something had happened:

"Why do you ask? Everything in Linxiang City is normal now. After the replicators were suppressed by Zhou, there are no problems in Linxiang City now."

Zhou Baiyu felt more and more something was wrong.

In fact, I thought before that if Mark, a believer in the god of plagiarism and copying, is allowed to continue to grow, maybe Mark will be the monster in the next defensive project.

But Mark was already under his control half a month ago.

If it weren't for Mark, and if Constantine thought everything was normal in Linxiang City...

Is there anything more terrifying than Mark that can even activate the second round of defense mode?
