Chapter 930: Virtual Life
Frankly speaking, it is the first time that Yi Cheng has heard someone use the words "true" and "false" when describing a person.
After all, whether it's a paper man, a plastic villain, or a more advanced inflatable color, although these are "real" people in the minds of otaku, generally speaking...... Just poke it with a cigarette butt and you can probably verify the authenticity.
Because of this, when Beryl suddenly said such a sentence, Yi Cheng, who was confused in his heart, subconsciously developed the ability of the soul energy body and put a cigarette in his mouth out of thin air.
"What do you mean...... Am I fake? ”
"That's probably what it means literally."
Beryl lazily lifted her finger through the smoke and pointed at Isei's forehead.
"Wait...... Are you saying I'm not actually the main character? ”
Spit out a puff of smoke and savor these words again, Yi Cheng immediately came up with this possibility that had been bothering him for a while.
Well, although the previous battle on the southern island had already dispelled such doubts, now, since Beryl had come to such a conclusion with the help of the Seventy-Two Pillars Demon God, of course Isei didn't mind hearing her arguments.
But what Yi Cheng didn't expect was that Beryl was obviously not just satisfied with this, and then, her shaking head and speech were like her huge breasts moistened by adequate nutrition and exquisite sleep, which made Yi Cheng fall into waves of shock.
"Frankly, I don't know if your protagonist's abilities are true or not, but beyond that, your name, identity, family, past experiences, interpersonal interactions...... I'm afraid these things are all fake. ”
Speaking of which, seeing Yi Cheng open his mouth wide and show an unbelievable look, Beryl thought about it for a while, and still completed the final mending knife with determination.
"Actually, that's not the point, it's ...... You are a fake person. ”
“…… Ha? ”
Yi Cheng subconsciously poked his chin with his finger.
Neither a paper man nor a plastic man, nor can it be an inflatable person, since this is the case, then this feel ......
Could it be that he is actually a high-end product of silicone?
Well, since it's a soul energy body now, Yi Cheng doesn't have more ample evidence to refute Beryl's nonsense, but despite this, he can't help but laugh out loud at the ridiculous conclusion he has reached.
"It seems that the so-called Seventy-Two Pillar Demon God will occasionally be unreliable."
"No, the Seventy-Two Pillars Demon God can't go wrong, so ......"
It was rare for Beryl to repeat her judgment again with seriousness and concentration.
"You're a fake."
"I'm real!"
"You're a fake."
"I'm real! You're a fake! ”
“……”
Yi Cheng is not the Monkey King, nor is he a six-eared macaque.
Of course, standing in front of him at this time, he was so anxious that he scratched his ears and cheeks and argued with him that "I'm real, you're fake" Such a boring and demented king of laziness Beryl naturally can't be his motherly version of the individual, but because of this, it makes the argument between the two seem even more funny.
Seeing that the two were about to fall into a cycle of endless beginnings and no ends, Satan shook his head and motioned for Morpheus to intervene to stop the meaningless conversation between the two.
"Alright, Beryl, you better tell him the truth in a more detailed and understandable way."
"Ah...... It's very troublesome, really, and since you know it, it's okay for you to tell him. ”
Beryl complained lazily, then simply remained silent, and in the end, Morpheus had to resume her work of explanation with a bitter face.
"Protagonist...... Well, I'll call you that, in fact, even that point so far is not entirely certain because of your situation. ”
“…… So, what do you want to tell me? ”
Feeling the seriousness in Morpheus's tone, Yi Cheng's body shuddered for no reason, and he felt fear for no reason about the information he was about to learn.
"You remember, you got in touch with your 'girlfriend' through a space-time conversation, and asked her to help investigate the delivery."
"So what...... What are the findings? ”
Since Morpheus mentioned this matter, it means that this matter is inevitably related to the sentence "You are fake" just now, but despite this, Yi Cheng is still skeptical of the words of several demon kings.
After all, just now, Scatterbomb tried to force him to fall by despicable means, and as a result, Yi Cheng's trust in several "companions" has also fallen to the lowest point since Hell returned to reality.
"Just now, your 'girlfriend' called the savior codenamed 'Crystal' according to your prior arrangement and informed her of the relevant content of the investigation - illegal research on 'cloning the protagonist' has been carried out in Area 11, and she has reason to believe that you are the 'product' of this illegal research subordinate factory."
“…… The more you talk about it, the more outrageous it becomes, right?! ”
Hearing this, Yi Cheng couldn't hold back any longer, and almost scolded the king of hatred in front of him.
Are you kidding...... From birth, to growing up, to graduating from school, all the memories during this period, whether it is parents, relatives, friends, friends, including girlfriends, etc...... All the experience is enough to prove that he can't be an illegal "cloning product"!
"Human memory is never enough to corroborate any truth, especially for saviors who have mastered amnestics and rewriting techniques, it is actually easy to implant all relevant memories since birth in your brain, and most importantly, ......"
Morpheus glanced at the indignant Yicheng with pity.
"In order to make your 'memory' and 'life' more real, the person who created you also rewrites the memory of every person related to you who appears in your memory, and in this way, weaves a complete social network for you, which is almost equivalent to 'real'."
“…… You think I'm going to believe this kind of nonsense? ”
In the face of this increasingly outrageous "truth", Yi Cheng is already outrageous.
"Do you know the theory of six dimensions? Do you know how many different people* a person will come into contact with in the first 20 years of life? ”
According to the theory of six degrees of space, the distance between a person and any stranger is no more than six people, and in this society where the Internet and information dissemination are extremely developed, this also means that a person's existence will be based on the whole world.
And now, similar to the secret talks and rumors of "evaporation from the world" that are spread on the Internet, what several demon kings put forward is exactly the same ...... No matter how you think about it, it is impossible to achieve it.
"Let's not talk about how much manpower and material resources need to be invested in arranging a complete social circle for me alone, and what price can I pay to do it...... Tell me, what's the purpose of this?! ”
"If you think about the results alone, since you're fake, then the purpose of doing this is obviously to make you 'real'."
Morpheus's inference is not unreasonable, but because of this, it is even more difficult for Yi Cheng to accept and agree with this kind of "reasonableness" based on "unreasonable".
"So, you want to tell me that there is such a guy who does not hesitate to brainwash and rewrite the memories of most of the people in the world, just to make me ...... Looks more like the real thing? ”
“…… It sounds surprising, but it's true. ”
Morpheus nodded at first, then suddenly remembered something, and when she looked at Yi Cheng again, she couldn't help but show a surprised expression on her face.
"Also...... I just thought about it, that person...... In what way, by what means, did this. ”
“…… What means? ”
Yi Cheng's eyes widened subconsciously.
The answer is obvious.
