Chapter 3236: Reviewing the Plot—Whose Fault Is It Anyway? (Part 2)

The whole room was silent.

The Agent stood up first and said, "The hotel tragedy was your setting?!"

"Is there a problem?" Greed said. "I got the inspiration from the Bishop."

The Agent opened his mouth. He glanced at the Beyonder. Well, he should have thought of it earlier. The Bishop basically didn't participate in the game much and it was unlikely he had contacted the Beyonder. They were completely unfamiliar. The probability of the Beyonder designing it with his experience as inspiration was too low.

On the contrary, every Schiller could look at the memory bank, and he himself knew about the Bishop's encounter, which meant almost every Schiller knew that someone like Greed, who would pluck a feather from a passing goose, was best at making use of waste.

"Are you thinking in your heart that the Bishop is a waste?" Greed looked at the Agent and asked.

"I didn't, I'm not, don't talk nonsense." The Agent denied it flatly.

Batman was straightening out the entire backstory in his heart. Added to Greed's setting, the source of every background force in the game was clear.

Originally, the origin of the church was a bit abrupt, because just creating some weird events and then coming forward to rescue them didn't seem to be enough to allow the church to develop to where it was today.

But if it had made a deal with an Outer God and cooperated with an old-fashioned family born in the Age of Discovery, then it wouldn't be strange.

Greed's line should be that the ancestor of the Siltek family had believed in evil gods since the Age of Discovery, and after using faked death to get rid of the royal family, he came to Massachusetts and established the hotel.

And in the process of building the hotel, he didn't give up his faith, always conducting various evil sacrifices in the hotel, summoning various monsters.

Using the hotel, the Siltek family obtained their first pot of gold, gained a foothold in Sigeltek, and gradually managed this place as their base camp.

And with the arrival of the new era, they were no longer satisfied with being an ordinary family, so they directed and acted in the hotel tragedy, supported the church to benefit from it, used the power from the evil gods to create weird events globally, raised the status of the church, and step-by-step developed into a dictatorial organization covering the globe.

Very good, very much in line with Greed's style. This was Pride's thought.

"Even this backstory was made up by us, then what did you do?" The Agent still bit on the Beyonder's point.

"I also made up a backstory, okay!" The Beyonder defended: "Wasn't Madeline's story made up by me? Isn't this reversal good?"

Pride's fingers tapped the table lightly, and then said: "Where is the reversal?"

"It's that at the beginning she appeared to be a victim and a helper to the protagonist, but turned against them when she came into contact with core interests."

Pride was silent for a moment, then said: "Do you think that after we finished reading Madeline's notes, we would still think she was a normal person?"

Before the Beyonder could say anything, Pride continued: "Fine, I'll ask another question. What do you think of Bruce's psychology level?"

The Beyonder looked at Bruce.

"I guess you'll say 'not bad', so you think it's not surprising that someone would still think she's a good person after reading Madeline's description of the tragedy of her relatives."

The Beyonder was a bit dizzy from his circumlocution. He looked at Greed.

"He's calling you a scrub." Greed said very straightforwardly.

"Weren't you writing it that way on purpose?" Batman asked very seriously. "Wasn't it just to give us a hint? To let us discover Madeline's true face in advance?"

"He wasn't." Pride answered first. He said: "He is not human, nor can he understand what relatives are, so he can describe all this so coldly."

"No!" The Beyonder denied: "Although I am not human, I also have relatives!"

"Will you be sad if they die?"

"Uh..." The Beyonder was really stumped by his question. He paused and said: "They won't die."

"That's the problem." Pride's fingers pressed on the table and said.

The Beyonder watched as vigilant emotions gradually appeared in Batman's eyes, looking at him as if he were looking at a psychopath.

The Beyonder was aggrieved. He said: "I am also an intelligent life with emotions, but my relatives just won't die. Is it wrong for facts to be facts?"

"But you think there's no problem with Madeline writing it that way." Bruce added fuel to the fire.

"Because I... fine, I thought these were just some details, so I just wrote them casually and didn't bring in any emotions. It was my mistake, okay?"

"What's going on with the skills?" Batman raised another question. "I can understand the others, what's going on with Greed's wind blade?"

"That's actually not a wind blade." Greed shook his head and said: "That is space cutting. My profession is 'Descendant of Cultists'. To put it bluntly, this skill is inherited from the ancestor."

"But wasn't the ancestor made up by you?"

"I made it up based on this identity." Greed explained: "Your process should be the same as mine, which is choosing your profession first, and then you can obtain corresponding skills."

Others nodded. Most people were like this, just like when Pride chose a Requiemist from several professions, and then obtained the Requiem skill.

"Which professions were available for you to choose?" Bruce asked with some curiosity.

"Descendant of Cultists, Descendant of Captains, and Descendant of Kings." Greed spread his hands and said: "I told you long ago, my profession is rich second generation."

Everyone was speechless. They didn't expect what he said to be true. These identities were branches of the rich second generation profession, weren't they?

"Don't talk nonsense, that's called 'Descendant of a Famous Family'." The Beyonder said: "Your professions all have names. Didn't you listen carefully?"

Pride recalled it. The Beyonder seemed to have told him he was a member of the clergy. He thought it was a simplified adjective. He didn't expect the profession to be called "Member of the Clergy".

"I haven't asked you yet." Greed looked at Batman and said: "How can you control corpses? What is your profession?"

"He is a 'Child of Nature', and the branch he chose is 'Corpse Collector'. Actually, I wanted to persuade him to choose Druid, but he didn't listen."

Batman sighed lightly and said: "The opening introduction said that Farainess is also known as the lighthouse covered in heavy snow. Although I can't be sure what season it is outside, what if it's winter? Where would I get animals to drive?"

The Beyonder smiled somewhat awkwardly. He admitted that he wanted to pit Batman at the time because he felt it would be more interesting.

"What about the Joker?" Bruce looked at the Joker and the Pale Knight again.

"This one is the 'Pigmenter' of the 'Great Artist' profession, and the skill is changing the points of the dice. This one is the 'Lawyer' of the 'Elite' profession, and the skill is persuasion." The Beyonder introduced their professions and branch identities respectively.

It's really called 'Great Artist'? Greed was a bit surprised, because when they asked about each other's identities, the Joker said he was a great artist. Everyone thought it was just his exaggerated description. They didn't expect this profession to be really called "Great Artist".

The Beyonder didn't care about their strange gazes at all, and pointed at Owlman again: "He is the 'Policeman' among 'Law Enforcement Officers', and Bruce is the 'Disguiser' among 'Dishonest People', changing according to the switching of the two identities."

Everyone else's eyes focused on Bruce. It could be seen that his identity was special.

"Fine, at the beginning, after I chose the branch profession, the Beyonder told me that my profession was special and I could choose two identities: one real identity and one disguised identity, with two sets of skills."

"The real identity I chose was Agent, and the disguised identity was Psychologist. The Agent's skill is Shooting Mastery, and the Psychologist's skill is First Aid."

"How can the Psychologist's skill be First Aid?" Greed asked with some confusion: "I wanted to ask before, why does your skill restore health points instead of mental health points?"

"Because actually I'm not a psychologist, just a doctor, but I call myself a psychologist." Bruce said: "Actually, it's because I don't want to expose my skills, and I also want to make you think I have a way to restore mental health points, so you might not be so cautious."

Now Pride knew why when he asked the Beyonder if he could be a psychologist, the Beyonder's tone was so strange.

Bruce's purpose was actually to paralyze others. He obviously thought from the beginning that this might be a game of confrontation between players.

He said he was a psychologist, which easily made people think he could restore mental health points. In case some less experienced players only thought this was a team cooperation game and felt that with him as a bottom line, it didn't matter if they lost some mental health points, he could gain some advantages.

"Sinister intentions." Greed evaluated.

"Alright, now the plot is basically straightened out." The Beyonder supported the table with both hands and scanned the circle: "Now we can talk about how you guys played the game into this state, right?"

"Backstory problem." Pride said: "You gave them too much freedom. Playing it into this state is your own fault."

"I don't like hearing this." Greed said: "First of all, our professions were fixed. Even if we could choose branches, there weren't many options. This restriction was already very large."

"Secondly, skills couldn't be chosen, and before choosing a profession, you couldn't see what the skills were. It was a blind choice. My space cutting skill actually had no use at all..."

"You're talking nonsense!" The Beyonder slapped the table and stood up: "Didn't you use this skill to kill the protagonist?!"

"Do you think I couldn't have killed him without this skill?!" Greed bared his teeth.

The Beyonder was choked.

"You really should let your friends see." Pride said slowly. Greed immediately extinguished his fire.

"I'm just stating facts." Greed said: "The restriction of fixed professions was already very large. If we weren't allowed to edit backstories, then this game would be too boring."

"And although the backstories we made up were each outrageous, didn't we round them up in the end? Even if the details weren't very rigorous, they merged quite well on the whole. Starting the game with this kind of background is no problem. I don't think the problem appeared here."

Bruce, whose backstory was also quite outrageous, agreed with Greed's point of view, but he turned and said: "I think it's still that the protagonist died too early. If he hadn't been killed by someone at the beginning, he could at least have led us to the main plot."

"But I didn't kill Madeline." Greed immediately defended: "I left a living protagonist group member. That's enough, right."

"But Madeline went crazy and didn't give any useful clues." Bruce said: "I didn't do this. I'm not a psychologist, I couldn't have hypnotized her."

"Then how did she go crazy?" Batman asked with some curiosity, and then he realized and said: "I remember, the Prowler is actually a clone of an Outer God. Was she driven crazy by the Outer God?"

The Beyonder nodded and said: "But if Greed hadn't trapped Ibo's blood body in Doggett's corpse, Madeline wouldn't have gone crazy from coming into contact with his corpse."

"How did Greed trap the Prowler?" Batman asked again.

"Water, that thing is afraid of water." Greed said: "At that time I didn't know he was a clone of an Outer God. This is all thanks to Bruce."

Others went to look at Bruce again.

"Underground dark river." Bruce said. ===== CHAPTER 3237 =====
