Chapter 35 [Resistance]

Thump!

The wine bottle in Chen Xiaolian's hand was poured, he subconsciously picked up the wine bottle and looked at the middle-aged man opposite: "GM?"

"Yes, something like this. ”

"Isn't that ...... In this world, you are almost equal to God? ...... Are you one of 'them'?" Chen Xiaolian's tone became very urgent: "If you say...... Our world was created by an organization like a 'game company'...... So, you're part of a game company?"

"Game companies? This is an interesting analogy, and you can't say right or wrong. The middle-aged man thought for a moment: "I am indeed one of 'them', but I am a little different from 'them'. ”

"What exactly are the 'they' you talking about?" Chen Xiaolian suddenly felt a little frightened in his heart: "...... Is it human? I mean, really human?"

"What do you mean by real human?" the middle-aged man frowned.

"Look. I'm a writer. Chen Xiaolian thought for a while and said slowly: "I write a novel, for example, a martial arts novel, the world in the novel is a world that I created out of, but the characters in the novel, Yang Guo Xiaolongnu, Guo Jing, Huang Rong, Wei Xiaobao...... Also human. But in fact, they are virtual humans that I created Zào. As a writer, I'm a real human being. I just used my own race as a template and blueprint to create zào out of them.

So, according to what you said, in fact, we were created zào.

Does that mean that we are just like the characters in the novel, whether it is a passerby or an NPC? In a word...... Is it a higher level of civilization that uses itself as a template to create zào out of us?"

Chen Xiaolian said here and took a sip of wine: "Newton, Damon, Sharo...... These guys are all people from a higher level of civilization, aren't they? They're the real 'people', aren't they?"

The analogy is correct. The middle-aged man nodded: "Logically it can indeed be understood in this way." ”

He then smiled and said: "In fact, the creation of 'you' and those guys in this world, that is, 'them', are indeed based on themselves in terms of race, cultural model, and many aspects, and created you from zào.

This is easy to understand, any creation, the creator himself, will unconsciously use himself as a template to create.

If it's a game, if the characters aren't human, then the player will lack a sense of immersion. If it's a movie or a story, if the main character of the story isn't human. Then readers and viewers will also lack a sense of substitution.

So at this point, I can tell you that 'they' are very similar to you. Of course, there will be subtle differences. ”

"So, what about you?" Chen Xiaolian smiled bitterly: "You who are sitting in front of me at this moment, who claim to be the GM of this world, are you also a member of that 'game company'? Oh yes, I have heard of the name 'development team', and you are also a member of them? You are a real human being?"

"I'm sorry...... I'm not. The middle-aged man sighed softly: "To be precise, I was also made by them." ”

"I ...... Somewhat dizzy. Chen Xiaolian smiled bitterly.

"It's not hard to understand. The middle-aged man shook his head: "It is impossible for such a complex world structure to be managed by humans alone. It's not a few or dozens of NPCs, it's billions, thousands, tens of thousands of years of history...... Pure manpower cannot be managed.

So, if this is a 'system', then I am the 'main program'. ”

"Artificial intelligence?" Chen Xiaolian's eyes widened.

Not exactly, but as a metaphor, it can be said that way. The middle-aged man said lightly: "I am a manager, or to be precise, I am an executor." I am responsible for executing, supervising, and promoting the programs created by the development team. In this world, I am omniscient and omnipotent. From the development of civilization to the life of each character, I will monitor, manage, and when necessary, promote it according to the 'set plot'. ”

"Huh?"

"For example, if the 'plot content' requires an important character to die in a car accident, then I am responsible for 'creating' the car accident, causing the character to die, and then unfolding a series of subsequent effects. For example, if the 'world context' requires that there be a war between countries, I will be responsible for driving the world and making wars between countries - this is a very complex process, politics, positions, interests, and characters involved...... And so on, a qiē needs to be calculated precisely. Then, let the 'plot' happen. ”

Chen Xiaolian silently drank the wine in the bottle and exhaled: "For example...... World War I, World War II?"

The middle-aged man nodded.

"I ...... Can you swear?" Chen Xiaolian's expression was as if he wanted to cry at any time: "You mean...... You are the God of this world, the God...... World War I and World War II were all created by you?"

"As I said, this is a complicated process, and in order to make the plot reasonable, then the world must be logical, and the political positions of the participating countries are different, and their interests are fighting...... and so on, all in the plot planning. ”

The middle-aged man smiled: "I'm not a real human being, I'm just a master program made up, I'm in charge of managing, I'm in charge of pushing, I'm in charge of calculating...... There were even times when I was responsible for 'revisions'. ”

"My God......" Chen Xiaolian rubbed his face vigorously, because he drank two bottles of beer, his face was a little numb: "How powerful are those 'they'? Thousands of years of civilization, tens of thousands of years of history...... They were all made by them...... Wait!! no!!Is this 'game' already existing, millions of years, hundreds of millions of years? The Big Bang is measured in billions of years!"

"The concept of time is different. The middle-aged man laughed: "You are 'in-game time', and for them it is 'out-of-game time'." It's like if you write a novel and you just write 'a few years have passed,' you have too much time in the novel. But outside of the novel......"

"Understood. ”

Chen Xiaolian frowned: "That...... What about the copy you just experienced? the 72 Demon God...... This is simply a legend and a myth! There is no such thing as zài in our world. ”

"As I said, this world is created by them, so they can create it at will. The middle-aged man said lightly: "You remember one thing, this world is just a background world that they created for the sake of 'games', it is a background, you, everyone, all civilizations, history, are 'backgrounds'." And in this context, on the stage, any character and anything that needs to appear can be created at any time.

Not to mention King Solomon's 72 demon gods, even if you get Noah's Ark or 100,000 heavenly soldiers to attack Huaguo Mountain, you can do it.

It all depends on what kind of plot the 'development team' will come up with. ”

"Well, these are 'copies'?"

"That's right, it's the game's mission plot to be exact. They can do whatever they want. ”

Chen Xiaolian had unconsciously started drinking the third bottle of beer.

His alcohol consumption was not very good, and by the time the third bottle was down, his mind had already begun to be dizzy: "So...... Why are you looking for me? According to you, I'm just a passerby, an NPC. Just let me fend for myself, why are you looking for me? Why do you want to sue me for this?

Why...... I'm going to get involved in that copy of King Solomon's 72 Demon God?"

"Because...... I need you to rebel with me. ”

The middle-aged man, this guy who claims to be a GM and a god of this world, still has that unchanging smile on his face when he looks at Chen Xiaolian's eyes.

"Rebel, rebel, rebel against whom?"

"Of course it's against 'them'. ”

"Aren't you with them? You are the master program they created, the master program that controls this world, why do you want to resist?"

Chen Xiaolian was shocked again.

The smile on the middle-aged man's face finally disappeared.

He glanced at Chen Xiaolian silently, and actually stood up slowly.

"If it is a novel and a movie, then there is always an end to the plot, and there is always a moment when the book is finished and the whole drama ends. If it's a game, then the main story and main quest will always be finished. You know, when that happens, what's going to happen?"

Chen Xiaolian suddenly had a spirit!

"World...... Disappear?"

"Hehehehe......" The middle-aged man shook his head and smiled: "This world is a sand table, they make this sand table, and then many people and many players can play games and practice on this sand table...... But after it's done, it won't break the sand table, it will only ...... A qiē restart. ”

"一qiē...... Do it all over again?"

"Yes, it's 'reset' or 'refresh', you can use any other words as you like, but that's what it means. ”

The middle-aged man looked down at Chen Xiaolian: "This kind of 'reset' and 'refresh' has actually been going on, for example, the copy of one of the 72 demon gods you just completed, that island, when the copy was opened, the plane crashed, the island was earthquaked, the cave collapsed, so many people died...... However, after the quest was completed, it was refreshed.

So you see, the planes are still flying, and those people are still alive......"

"Because...... Reset, refreshed?"

"Yes. But this is just a reset and refresh of a single small copy. ”

The middle-aged man said slowly: "This game has a main plot. The main story will be opened step by step, and then players will come in and complete the main quest one by one...... If the 'clearance' happens in the end......"

"That's the cycle?" Chen Xiaolian was stunned for a moment.

"Yes, after clearing the level, the main story of this world will be reset, restarted, refreshed...... And I, this master program...... will also be refreshed. ”

"Isn't it death?

"Resetting means that all my existing memories have been erased and forcibly erased by the system. ”

The middle-aged man said lightly: "I have already generated self-consciousness, if these self-consciousness are forcibly erased by the system, forced to reset and refresh...... Then, I am equivalent to not living zài, and I am dead...... In its place, there was a blank slate. ”

He glanced at Chen Xiaolian: "What is alive and what is dead." I think there are many different interpretations of this meaning, but if it were you...... The reason why you Chen Xiaolian is Chen Xiaolian is because you have survived for eighteen years, all your life, all your memories, and all your emotions in eighteen years...... to form a comprehensive sense of 'you'. But if ...... Erase all these emotions, memories, experiences...... So, in fact, consciously speaking, 'you' are already dead. ”

“...... I can probably understand. ”

Chen Xiaolian's eyes were a little confused: "So...... You're going to stop those players from 'beating the level'?"

"That's it. ”
