22 September 2003, 12.31 p.m.

A-11 Male Dormitory Building, Room 404, Yangtze University.

"Old horse, do you want to play basketball?"

"Don't go, you guys play!"

"I'll just say he won't go, you still have to ask."

"Old Ma, even Xiaobai knows how to participate in group activities, why are you so unconscious?"

"What nonsense, get out!"

"Yes, you can write, I don't know what I'm writing every day, it's mysterious."

Ma Liang was the only one left in the dormitory, he lit a cigarette, took a deep breath, squinted at the words on the note, and fell into deep thought.

For more than a week, I have been perfecting the writing and setting of the Creator (pseudo).

A large number of words, graphics and symbols define a great existence in all aspects.

But this is only a draft.

He didn't use a magic pen.

As the setting deepens, a survivor of a great and alternative civilization, a lonely refugee, a cold controller, an omnipotent "AI" with powerful computing and thinking capabilities, and a machine with the highest mission as the first criterion, leaps onto the page.

Fifteen pages, so that it is full and three-dimensional from scratch, only need to be written by the magic pen, and it can be born within a set time.

Ma Liang extinguished the cigarette butt and turned a new page.

It explains where it came from and how it came to be, defines its existential principles, foundations, and meanings, and addresses its operating mechanisms, capabilities, and limitations, as well as its final, inescapable ending.

With the highest mission throughout, the work of the Creator (pseudo) is nearing its end, and the last step is to fill in its broken "database"!

After contemplating for a while, Ma Liang began to write.

The tip of the pen moves around the paper.

One page is full, and another page is opened.

More than an hour passed.

Call!

That's it!

Ma Liang happily flipped the set content from beginning to end, stretched his waist, looked at the time, there was still half an hour before the first class, and the rest of the dormitory should be back soon.

I carefully put away the notebook, went to the water room, washed up briefly, and when I came back, I saw seven people in the dormitory, covered in stinky sweat, walking out of the stairwell.

"Old Ma, is your cold cured?" Wang Fei hugged the basketball and asked from afar.

"Almost, what's the matter, you want to skip class again?"

Wang Fei smiled and entered the dormitory.

Since returning from military training, Ma Liang has been catching a cold and low-grade fever, and the infirmary has issued a few fake notes, but he has never used any of them, and let other people in the dormitory use them.

"Here, it's the last one!"

"Thanks!"

"Going to an Internet café to play games again?"

"Hey, hey!"

"The old horse is gone, today's first big class, there are so many beauties, don't be late!"

This herd of livestock!

Ma Liang poured a glass of warm water and took medicine, put the notebook in his backpack, and went out with them with the backpack.

When he went down the stairs, Zhu Ming said to him: "This Saturday, we are going to Taihe Electronic City to equip computers, will you go?" ”

Ma Liang wants to go, the computer is a must, using a notebook is always a hidden danger, and it is much more convenient to set and conceive on the computer.

But he had no money, and his living expenses were almost exhausted.

It's been less than a month since the start of school, and the living expenses of a semester have been spent lavishly, how can you have the money to match any computer?

Ask the family if you want to forget it.

Before and after the new system was launched, he still tried to avoid any contact with his family, and if his "deviations and anomalies" affected them, it would be troublesome.

How to make money!

Take advantage of foresight?

After thinking about it, this idea was dispelled.

First, he didn't have the time and energy to do so.

Second, it can lead to an aggravation of "abnormalities and deviations".

Third, even if you see the opportunity, you don't have such capital.

Let's use the magic pen!

As long as the degree is carefully controlled, limited to the range of anomalies and deviations, and does not cause oscillations in time and space, it should be possible.

Even if you haven't done anything now, haven't you had a cold and a low-grade fever for more than a week?

Ma Liang smiled and replied, go.

Rushed to the lecture hall, which was already full of people, Ma Liang separated from the others and found a remote corner to sit down.

I put down my backpack, pulled out my books and water glass, and five minutes later, the bell rang.

In the public class of the freshman year, Marxist philosophy, the professor is an old man who is over the age of six, except for the roll call, he only lectures and never cares what the students are doing.

After class, the surroundings quieted down, Ma Liang carefully took out the notebook and continued his previous work.

The setting of the creator (pseudo) has been completed.

Then comes another, equally important job.

The framework of the new system!

Where is this "new" to be embodied?

What kind of worldview?

Ma Liang is just an ordinary person, only with the wisdom of ordinary people, it is impossible to imagine a new worldview out of thin air.

He can only extract and borrow from what he already knows.

Martial arts, Xianxia, two-dimensional, sci-fi, supernatural, fantasy, can't escape these categories.

First of all, martial arts and science fiction were the first to be excluded.

Because these two types of worldviews are too closely related to the content of the original time and space, it is the inheritance and development of the content of the original time and space.

This means that they will be easily parsed by space-time, and they will have little resistance to the calming effect of space-time.

The supernatural and the two-dimensional also have such concerns.

The only ones left are Xianxia and Fantasy.

Xianxia is a revival of aura.

Fantasy is the advent of magic.

In terms of emotional identity, Ma Liang is more inclined to Xianxia.

But judging from the difficulty of realization and the benefits of input and output, fantasy is more competitive.

Why?

The upper limit of Xianxia's strength is too high, and the vague and idealistic parts are too heavy, and the cultivators perceive the laws of heaven and earth, go against the sky, and seize the essence of heaven and earth, in order to achieve their own longevity.

Too lonely, too ruthless, congenitally an unruly thorn, too difficult to control - inappropriate, inappropriate!

Fantasy is different, the upper limit of power is controllable, the rules can be followed, level by level, level by order, can be progressive and rigorous like a pyramid, biased towards explanation, biased towards rationality, biased towards balance, even gods have restrictions and limitations.

It is also more in line with the setting of the creator (pseudo).

That's it!

Ma Liang crossed out the other options and kept the "fantasy" on the notebook.

That being said, it's not exactly what it is.

Just take the worldview as a reference.

Ma Liang needed to create a system that had never existed before.

Fortunately, this "never appeared" is only for the current time scale, 2003, and there are more than ten years of material to learn from.

After careful consideration, he drew a horizontal line below the word "fantasy" and wrote the word "mysterious" again.

Mysterious!

It represents the unknown, the unmeasurable, the strong rejection and independence, and the strong resistance to the spatio-temporal flattening effect.

So be it!

A mystical power system born out of a fantasy worldview.

So the first step is the magic coming!?

But at this time, Ma Liang suddenly hesitated.

Is there anything overlooked?
