Chapter 254: Sinister Qiu Yinong

"Alright, skip the third point. Next let's start talking about the fourth point."

"According to my discoveries, actually our Skills still have room for development."

"My Wheel of Time, the more times it is continuously used, when the Skill ends, the greater the mental damage caused to players."

"Three-Star Players can, through suppressing their Mental State, be immune to or receive less mental damage. But being immune and receiving less have a distinction."

"Therefore, I feel, when we finish the Heart Cultivation of the Id, we can conduct an experiment to see if it is being immune or receiving less?"

"If it is being immune, then take it as I said nothing. If it is receiving less..."

"It explains that hundreds of Time Resets have a small impact on players who underwent Self-Decapitation of the Primal Ego. Logically speaking, it can cause a greater impact on players who underwent Self-Decapitation of the Primal Ego by increasing the number of times."

"But my limit is seemingly only able to use Wheel of Time around three hundred times. If I want to forcefully increase the number of times, I must spend several hundred Time Resets resting. This might lead to the Psionic Attack effect being unideal."

"Not bad." Chen Ran echoed: "It's just like driving a car. If the mountain road is constantly rugged and changeable, it's easy to overturn the car. But if a segment of unchanging mountain road appears in the middle, not only can the driver get relief, even the jolted passengers can also slowly adapt to this kind of rhythm."

Speaking up to here, Chen Ran more or less knew what Qiu Yinong was going to say next.

"I also thought like this. But if it's me temporarily laying out a layout, guiding the victim's deduction to produce deviations through the differences in dialogues in every Time Reset, then I would have to be in a state of extreme thinking. It would still fall into the problem just now: the opponent hasn't collapsed, but I collapse first. Therefore..."

"You are a novel author. I need you to design three hundred templates for me. I just need to directly apply the templates, no need to think."

Simply put...

It's exactly letting Chen Ran, under the situation of identical scenes as well as identical characters, write out three hundred kinds of different talking scripts, and properly number them, letting Qiu Yinong memorize them thoroughly in advance. Then when using this kind of tactic, she only needs to apply the templates according to the sequence of the numbers, no need to temporarily think of talking scripts.

This is a massive project, and within these talking scripts, they also cannot tell lies.

But if successful, then they will have a trump card killing move.

However, this kind of killing move can only be used once in the same Instance. If used a second time, other players will have some defense.

Chen Ran estimated that if they directly upgraded to Three-Star upon going back this time and obtained the Mental Cultivation Method, assuming the two directly succeeded in Heart-Cutting, the next Instance they could experiment whether it was being immune or receiving less.

Before the Instance after next, he must finish writing the three hundred template talking scripts.

Time-wise there should be no problem.

"En, if the experiment in the next Instance turns out to be [receiving less], before the Instance after next, I will give you three hundred templates."

Hearing this, Qiu Yinong was somewhat surprised.

"Are you sure you can write out three hundred kinds of template talking scripts in such a short amount of time?"

The corners of Chen Ran's mouth raised, looking up at the ceiling at a 45-degree angle, smugly saying:

"There is specialization in arts and professions. Do you know what the first step for a novice writing a novel is?"

"Sweeping the charts!"

"Going to look at those hot novels on the ranking charts, looking at how they are written, what routines are used, as well as the analysis of the plot's thrill points, and then..."

"Copying?" Qiu Yinong asked.

"Referencing! Referencing! That is referencing alright! Referencing the thrill point templates as well as plot conflicts of their novels, conceiving plots that are out of the ordinary yet still identical."

"For example the template of a thrill novel. The first chapter is activating the system. The second chapter is the novice grand gift package. The third chapter is the villain inexplicably targeting the protagonist to arrange a fight. The fourth to eighth chapters are the benefits brought by the golden finger. The ninth chapter is the faces of the villain's underlings before the arranged fight begins, as well as the arrival of a certain big shot. The tenth chapter is the trash talk between the protagonist and the villain before fighting. The eleventh chapter starts the fight, interspersed with underlings clamoring in the middle, as well as the big shot's commentary. Before chapter fifteen, successfully face-slapping the villain, the underlings are stunned, the big shot shows favor. In the middle there must be reversal after reversal to hook the readers' desire to read on. Chapters sixteen to twenty-five don't write a new villain, change a posture and abuse the first villain once again. Watering it down like this, one can then go on the shelves and make easy rotten money."

Chen Ran talked on and on in a flow of eloquence, making Qiu Yinong dumbstruck from listening: So novels could actually be produced like an assembly line...

She did not doubt in the slightest that if Chen Ran started writing right now, he might be able to finish writing the three hundred template talking scripts in just a few hours.

She couldn't help but give him a thumbs-up.

Sorting out her emotions, she continued saying: "Next is your Skill."

"Your Skill must be used before I use Wheel of Time."

"After I have used Wheel of Time, you cannot use Eternal Kingdom anymore, otherwise the command password will make me be judged as lying."

"But there is room for operation here. Simply put, before you use Eternal Kingdom, you and I are in the same Secret Room. When you use Eternal Kingdom, you and I are not in the same Secret Room. When the Secret Room restores light, we are in the same Secret Room again. This will make other people mistakenly believe you cracked my Wheel of Time. Once this kind of misjudgment appears, it's highly likely there will be players initiating Judgment against me."

Chen Ran nodded. He had used this move in Lin Jiabei's Instance, within the Samsara Duplication Secret Room, and the effect wasn't bad. Even the duplicated Chen Ran could fall for the trick and have a lie tricked out.

For example, there are five wards right now.

Before Chen Ran uses Eternal Kingdom, Qiu Yinong goes to one of the wards in advance, and won't receive the effect of Eternal Kingdom. After the Skill is used, she quietly comes out.

Of course, the most suitable timing is for other people to use Skills first, making the Secret Room turn black. Qiu Yinong immediately goes to another Secret Room. When the light is about to restore, Chen Ran seamlessly uses Eternal Kingdom, extending the darkness time.

It's still not over!

Because Qiu Yinong didn't receive the effect of Eternal Kingdom, she can use...

Wheel of Time!

Making players forget the fact that she came out of another Secret Room.

Doing it like this, when players discover their own Skills are banned, they will deduce Chen Ran used Eternal Kingdom, and also don't have the memory of Qiu Yinong going to another Secret Room...

They will deduce Qiu Yinong's Wheel of Time was broken, with a lie added to her body.

Initiating Judgment against Qiu Yinong.

Simply perfect!

The two both deduced this kind of tactic, their eyes brighter than each other's.

Chen Ran touched his chin: "How come I feel your strategies are more sinister one after another... Cough cough you continue."

Qiu Yinong rolled her eyes: "I am only planning the general line of thought, this is my strong point. Specific details require you to handle as well as perfect them, this is your strong point."

Chen Ran: 'Alright then, one who has been a boss is exactly different.'

"Next, you previously said the 18th Level might have three parties of forces. One is the Liar-Slayer Alliance, two is the Deceiver Alliance, and three is the force behind Mei Zhixu. The first two won't be considered, they wish for nothing more than for us to die, or enslave us. Returning to the 18th Level, should we contact the force behind Mei Zhixu? Also, should we actually stay stuck at Two-Star, or directly upgrade to Three-Star? If we upgrade to Three-Star, we will face the First Floor Master personally coming down to the field!"

"That is a Five-Star Player, and also a group of Cannon Fodder who can be abandoned at any time. Even if they are Cannon Fodder, they are all Three or Four-Stars!"
