The author's diary of ghost stories

"Since you have noticed it, you should be able to think of it." Yuanshen Yu Liang seemed to like to talk like this, which made Yu Liang feel a little speechless, but when he thought of his own bad habit of "being a teacher", he was relieved.

Okay, it was said that Yuanshen was the innate Yuanling, without any personality or character, but now it may be because the consciousness has died, and Yuanshen has been alone for so many years, it is estimated that it is essentially different from the original "Yuanshen".

Following Yuanshen's words, we can clearly find the difference by summarizing these abilities.

[Reincarnation], [Pollution], [Creation], [Faith] and [Expansion] are all clear "passive" abilities, and the barrel man's origin cannot be actively triggered. Only [Assimilation] and [Time and Space Travel (doubtful)] have some active control abilities. It is not difficult to draw a conclusion by comparing them.

[Creation] may come from the writer's [Creation] ability, [Faith] is likely to come from the moon butler, and [Expansion] comes from the metaverse designer.

In this case, among the abilities of the Barrel Man Origin, only [Assimilation] is 100% his own, which is very consistent with the judgment so far.

The other rule abilities with "passive" are probably the abilities that the Barrel Man Origin obtains through [Assimilation], which is only 50% of the ability, so it can only be exerted in this form.

"Passive" means that the Barrel Man Origin cannot control itself. For those who often play card games, it will be clear that there is no such thing as "complete explosion" for passive skills. Various special situations can always be set to make these advantages become absolute disadvantages.

Now Yuanshen Yu Liang has obtained accurate data through continuous experiments. The level of research on the Barrel Man Origin has enabled him to prescribe the right medicine and design the so-called special situation to target this Barrel Man Origin.

After understanding this idea, Yu Liang's mind naturally began to think about the disadvantages corresponding to these abilities.

[Reincarnation] There is no doubt that after reducing the activity, the Barrel Man Origin will refresh in the barrel, and the refresh location is likely to be a higher-quality barrel creature. This is somewhat similar to the barrel snake imprisonment plan that Yu Liang had imagined.

Aze may have discovered this, so there is a scene of trapping the barrel man and making him reincarnate infinitely and unable to escape from the countless barrels near the cruise ship.

[Pollution] is a kind of mental erosion. Even if the barrel man's root and the consciousness go to sleep together and lose consciousness, it will unconsciously start and create its own fanatics.

This one doesn't seem to have too many problems. Perhaps it can be traced back to the root and suppress the barrel man's root trapped in the dream through some kind of mental rules.

Unfortunately, the blood wind root rule of the snake is "decomposition" rather than mental related. Without the corresponding rule ability, Yu Liang really dare not let it take risks.

Perhaps the snake that obtains the corresponding rule from the consciousness Yu Liang can do it. I will find a chance to try it later.

[Creation] is linked with [Reincarnation], which can ensure that He always has the possibility of reincarnation, so that he will not be completely sealed after all the barrel creatures die and have nowhere to go.

As for the disadvantages...

It may be that the creatures created in this way are not completely driven by Him. The barrel man An Buchen was probably born in this way. Judging from her situation, she should be more inclined to stand on the side of Yu Liang rather than the barrel man source.

[Faith] There is no problem, but the problem lies in the fixed end date. According to the words of the soul Yu Liang, this kind of retracing is beyond the control of the barrel man source itself.

The timeline in the copy will complete a fixed retracing on this day, just like the situation of the Sand Eye incident in the Forgotten City at that time, forming a completely closed time and space.

For the time being, the pros and cons of this are not clear. The barrel man Yu Liang himself can use this view of time and space to hide in the "future after the retracing time period", so that he will not be found by the barrel man source, and the main timeline will not be forced to end early with the situation of "Yu Liang's accidental death", but similarly, this kind of retracing will also make many things done by humans useless.

The space and time in the dungeon is closed, but the reality connected to the dungeon is not. The dungeon is still eroding reality endlessly under the influence of [Expansion]. Delaying time is probably not good news for the human side.

If a few root ghost stories of Forgotten City are accidentally circled in and turned into a barrel state, the delicate balance in the dungeon will be quickly broken.

As for the final [Expansion], except for the possibility of involving some absolutely unsolvable root ghost stories, it can be said that there are no disadvantages. Yu Liang basically will not make a fuss based on this passive ability. If this is not done well, the situation will be completely worsened.

"What do you think about these passive rules? Or what is your plan?" Yu Liang tried his best to let himself participate in thinking. This is his habit, a habit that is not easily deceived by others.

The soul Yu Liang did not answer him directly, but just pointed to the glasses that Yu Liang placed next to the host: "You can take back your glasses."

Yu Liang put on the glasses, and a light blue transparent AI man appeared in the left side of the field of vision. It was a Q version image. It can be basically determined that its image setting is to heal Yu Liang himself.

He searched the page in front of him with his original operating habits, but did not find any detailed plan, only the file he had just read, so he cast a puzzled look at the soul on the screen.

"Don't look at me, I tried, but unfortunately, I failed." The soul Yu Liang shrugged, "I can form a small advantage against these passive abilities locally, but from the overall perspective, I can't do anything. This may be the limitation of this timeline. All I can do is complete my own mission and help you complete the execution of the barrel man's source in this timeline, that's all."

He continued leisurely: "But it seems that your judgment on this matter is not optimistic, which means that you need to go to execute the barrel man's source the next time you enter this timeline."

"That's right." Yu Liang did not deny it. This is what he thought. With the information of the future Yu Liang as a foundation, he would definitely not believe the confident judgment of the soul Yu Liang.

Taking stock of the abilities of the barrel man's source, it can be found that the abilities currently revealed by this guy are almost only those borrowed from Yu Liang and others, and at most only [Reincarnation] and [Time Travel] are unknown.

On the road to becoming an unsolvable copy, the root ghost stories inside may encounter multiple sniping by players with root ghost stories.

In the end, the one standing in front of Yu Liang and others was the barrel man root, which already represented his growth progress. It was not strange to have the ability of other roots.

Of course, this growth progress would not be too much. The barrel man root would never have more than a dozen or even dozens of root ghost stories, because the root ghost stories with multiple rules are already unsolvable copies, and the ghost story world will no longer send high-quality players to do such meaningless things.

For example, the Moon Community would have been completely sealed if Lu Mingzhe had not stolen the moon. When all the players in it died, this copy would become a restricted area. The Moon with the abilities of [doubt], [belief], [smile] and "zhi" would definitely become unsolvable.

Judging from this point, the extent to which the barrel man root is stronger than this should be limited.

"So I just want to strengthen your strength as much as possible, but what exactly it is... let me keep you in suspense, you will know soon."

A 3D perspective view of the cruise ship appeared on the screen, in which the location of the captain's room inside was highlighted, and the road to the captain's room was drawn by the soul Yu Liang with an arrow. His words sounded slowly: "There is such a cruise ship in each timeline. The barrel man copy invaded the reality, and it invaded each copy. The computer in the captain's room is the only thing that can be regarded as maintaining the unity of multiple time and space except for the barrel man's root. Now you can go to find that computer."

"After I became an electronic life, I was no longer recognized by the computer, so even I haven't entered the captain's room for such a long time, but I think there may be news you need there."

After speaking, the door of the machine room opened by itself, and a road leading to the door turned red, guiding Yu Liang in the direction.

Now Yu Liang can communicate with the soul in the glasses, and there is really no need for him to stay in the machine room.

A few minutes later, the machine room became quiet again, but the soul Yu Liang on the screen did not disappear.

As an electronic life, he shouldn't have such an ineffective and meaningless action. Perhaps it was because the end of the world was approaching, or because the consciousness Yu Liang he knew had been gone for too long, and he rarely fell into a state of "having emotions".

"How long does it take for a person to build a personality?" The soul Yu Liang on the screen murmured to himself, "You guessed seven years, but now I can tell you that it has already started in the third year, and the subsequent process will be very short under my control."

At this time, in the signal perception of the soul Yu Liang, four coffin-like nutrition cabins were quietly placed in the laboratory at the deepest part of the cruise ship.

In the nutrition cabin, the same Yu Liang lay, sleeping in the same way.

For this city, this is the highest level of confidentiality, and then they will completely unblock Yu Liang who broke into this timeline. (End of this chapter)
