Chapter 63. I Represent the Abyss.
When Char left the Khorium Ruins, he carried the unconscious Evelyn on his back.
Unlike Zin'rokh, the Dark Elf did not have any memories of her past. However, the information she obtained from their conversation was jumbled up and terrifying. This made her doubt herself even more.
Char had no choice but to get Zin'rokh to knock her out and seal off this part of her memory.
Even if there was no main world, the abilities of the Destroyer of Worlds were completely preserved. He could look into the memories of his believers at will and do something to them. The instructions also contained a large number of psychological tactics to eliminate love and hope of someone, and deepen their despair and fear.
However, Zin'rokh scoffed at this.
"Even if IT did not say so, I know what to do!"
It was probably this kind of anger. Char had no choice but to repeatedly remind him to follow the instructions and continue to ruin the world.
Char had two guesses about his current situation.
Firstly, this might be related to some kind of authority. The higher one's authority was, the more keywords one could identify, and the more one could accept their existence attribute.
For example, Zin'rokh could understand words like 'players' and 'NPCs'.
Although he did not understand what it meant, he was able to come into contact with such words. This proved that these words, as well as the various nouns that expressed such meanings, were not in his blocked list.
This was crucial.
The input was not blocked by the path, which meant that information could be exchanged. This meant that one day in the future, Char would be able to pass on the concepts of VR, NPCs, players, and other related concepts to him, allowing the two to think about the same problem from different perspectives. However, he would have to wait until he was clear enough to ease Zin'rokh's self-doubt, and not when he interrupted him rudely like now.
In a sense, this was his first ally.
"The boss is now confirmed..."
Char scratched his head.
As for the second theory, there might be a bug in the system.
Zin'rokh was a bug, a bug that had not been discovered by IT. He had woken up, broken through this authority, and had an independent consciousness and personality.
Fortunately, he was not considered a bug.
A cold wind suddenly blew in the canyon, and his swollen mind instantly became clear.
Char looked up at the starry sky. It was as if something was monitoring him.
Perhaps the 177th reincarnation had all been seen by others?
"Now that I think about it, the village chief wished me good luck had a different meaning to it."
Char stepped on the dead leaves under his feet and said to himself, "He's acting so secretive and so frighteningly cautious. it's obvious that he's avoiding some kind of surveillance. i shouldn't say that. he's probably avoiding some sensitive database. It seems to be like this. He's using the right behavior to hint to me something.
"Then what is he hinting at?"
Thoughts collided in Char's mind, and a wandering thought was chased and squeezed, and in the end, there was no place to escape...
The observation method of IT?
Yes, that was the case.
The real hint was not the content of the sentence, but the village chief's behavior itself.
Since the village chief dared to say this unusual line, which was definitely not included in the regular dialogue list, it meant that IT did not observe the every move of all NPCs at all times. Just like a programmer who would not judge whether there was a mistake line by line, but would directly run it to see if there were any bugs.
IT was not observing at all, it was just waiting for the alarm to be triggered.
For these characters who could not understand NPCs and players and had a sensitive database, their information intake was blocked. At the same time, there were also words that could not be spoken. Once they were spoken, they would definitely become bugs.
If no one had the courage to say someone's name, no one would know who it really was.
What about 'players' like Char, who had a high degree of freedom?
Char looked back at the ruins and seemed to have an answer.
It was very simple, if he had dealings with the bug.
For example, if he had taken a few equipment and items when he left the ruins, it would have triggered the alarm!
IT had observed itself for 177 rounds, and it had a 177-round observation report in hand, which contained all of Char's past actions.
After overlapping the 177 rounds of reports, the range of Char's strength was determined. It was impossible for him to suddenly do something so ridiculous and far beyond the past in the 178th round, such as entering the level 60 Khorium Ruins at level 20 and riding on the puppet's head.
It was clearly impossible.
IT would check Char's behavior data and found out that there was a bug in the puppet. He was in contact with the bug, and everything came to light.
That was probably the case.
"In other words, the channel that restricts me from using some data to directly obtain items and modify game data has to remain the same as before. Does this mean that IT is also wary of me while it is monitoring me? What IT truly cared about was..."
Char massaged his brows, and his thoughts slowly calmed down. Finally, he relaxed...
"Other than that, there's one more thing you can't step on, which is that you can't change the process from the back-end. For example, it would be too stupid to ask Zin'rokh to go against the contents of the order and forcefully change the direction of the future."
Char laughed and entered the thick fog.
Half an hour later, Char had gathered all the ingredients for the [Awakening Potion] in the canyon. He skillfully prepared an inferior quality [Awakening Potion] and fed it to the Dark Elf.
Evelyn woke up. To be exact, she choked on a strange-smelling potion.
She did not speak for a long time after she woke up. The divine light in her pair of purple eyes was dim, and she was stunned for a long time as if she had lost consciousness. Then, her eyes began to move.
"Char?"
She was a little surprised. She looked around and then stood up abruptly.
"What are we doing here? Where's the puppet?"
Char stared at her for a few seconds.
"We're safe, Evie. We've escaped from its grasp."
"How many times have I told you not to call me that? How did you do it?"
"Didn't I tell you that the dark-robed puppet will not treat minions below level 30 as a threat? We didn't go near it. It was just a coincidence that it appeared in front of us."
Char stared into Evelyn's eyes as she spoke, confirming that there was only shock and fear in her eyes, and no other emotions.
"I'm much better now, Evie. Let's go back."
"Disgusting!"
As usual, Evelyn grumbled a little and then looked down at him from above.
"You're not lying to me?"
"Why do you say that?"
"I don't know. I was just a little angry when I saw your face, but I can't tell you the reason."
"Haven't you always been angry when you see me? After all, it's not the first day or two that you've coveted my body, but you've never been able to get what you want, just like the day of the Costume Festival."
"You're going to die!"
The Dark Elf rebuked, her face red. She quickly turned around, but Char grabbed her hand.
"Hey, you..."
Just as she turned around, the second half of her sentence was rudely blocked by Char.
This kiss seemed to be an apology, but it also seemed to be seeking a sense of security.
After being pushed away angrily, Char smacked his lips.
"Tsk, the medicine is really bad."
"Char, you bastard!"
The Dark Elf left in embarrassment.
Char smiled and patted her forehead as if he was comforting himself.
"At least before the problem is truly solved, we don't have to worry about them being treated as bugs.
"Everything is still going according to the original plan. The only difference is that this time...
"I represent the Abyss."
