I clicked on a catapult category, and then posted a topic on a dating site, and the others are not interested in it for the time being. Dismiss the parrot and start waiting patiently.

It is said that it will take about 2 hours, but Kevin has been idle recently, sitting at the window reading a book and taking a nap, and 2 hours are fleeting.

There was a flutter of wings, and the parrot with the catapult flew back. Kevin looked at his watch, it was exactly 2 hours, it was almost noon, and he didn't know if the parrot would be lazy or something halfway through.

"These are the pages you want," the parrot threw down seven or eight pages, "It's not easy to go back and forth, in order to increase efficiency, we try not to bring more with you, so that you can see enough." There will be some ads in the middle occasionally, you don't mind. ”

"Oh, got it. Kevin nodded and took a few pieces of paper, the paper was light and thin, illustrated and colorful, which looked good at first glance. But if you look closely, almost all of them are advertisements, and the headers and footers are crammed, as well as on both sides. It's all about which hotel is opened, how many discounts are given, which strong training class is opened, what is not strong for three days, and the money is refunded immediately.

The substance in the middle is quite shallow and short. In the eyes of Kevin, who can be considered a catapult professional, this is at best a piece of popular science article. Tells you what a catapult is, its role on the battlefield, the types of catapults, and the ancient wars in which catapults played an important role several times.

If a teenager reads these, he will gain some knowledge. Kevin, that's a waste of time. It seems that the depth of the content on the Internet is still not enough, and it may be that Kevin did not get the right web page.

"Do you have any comments to write?" the parrot couldn't help but ask, seeing that he had read it in a hurry, "If I write a review, I will take it back." If not, then I'll go. It's almost time in the morning, and it's almost time to get off work. ”

"Do you want to give them back to you?" Kevin asked.

"The web page will be given to you," replied the parrot, "and the money you paid for is already in it." ”

Kevin nodded, if the website relies on manual classification of information processing, the workload must be huge. If the web page is returned, it is equivalent to increasing their workload, in which case they would rather give the web page directly to the people who surf the Internet. Although the cost of paper is huge, paper, which is made from plant fibers, can easily be turned into the least valuable product with the help of the elven wood-based magic.

"Then you go first, I'll see if I can write something. Kevin picked up the pen and paper, feeling that the money was all well spent.

"Then I'll come back in the afternoon when I go to work. The parrot left a sentence and hurried away.

Kevin pinched the pen and picked up the article and read it again, and when he really wanted to write a comment, he couldn't write it for a while. Although this article is superficial, there is no essential problem, and it does not talk about how to develop in the future, and introduces the basic knowledge in a decent manner. How do you comment on this? Do you just say, "You're right"?

If you want to write about Kevin's own opinions and experiences, even if it is to kick out specific data that may be leaked, only talk about ideas and the future. The depth is too far from the article, just like a professor who writes a bunch of advanced mathematical concepts in the comment area after reading the rules of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.

Kevin is always a little more cautious about new things that he is new to the world. Once someone finds out and then ridicules it, it's not good. After thinking about it again, after all, I just wrote some clichés, such as the article is well written, easy to understand in simple terms, and so on.

At 1 p.m., the parrot came to work on time. I didn't say anything after looking at Kevin's comments, so I asked Kevin what else he wanted to see?

Kevin thought that instead of waiting 2 hours for a piece of popular science text, he might as well talk to the parrot. He has been shuttling from site to site for many years, and he probably knows more about it.

"You're working hard, huh?" Kevin began with a nonsense sentence.

"It's all right," replied the parrot, "it's much easier than when I was in the army." ”

"I've just recently returned from abroad, and I'm still very curious about your parrot's work," Kevin told him honestly, "Do you have a house too? or live with people, and are you bound by contract?"

"Well," the parrot thought for a moment, "not necessarily, some still live with people, and some live outside by themselves." Some have contracts, some are gone. ”

"You are very industrious, and you work so hard without constraints. Kevin sighed. This is not a casual question, the reason why people work hard, most of them still have to support their families and survive. Since parrots, a species with a small appetite, can eat and live at will, what is the reason for their work? Is it just a sense of honor? This can be said to be a social problem.

"Haha, we're all hard-working network cables. The parrot replied proudly.

Kevin couldn't ask too directly, so he simply changed the subject: "What restrictions do you have when you go abroad?"

"I don't know," the parrot hadn't thought about it at all, "I've heard that it's dangerous abroad, and I'm going to be caught roasted and eaten, so I don't have any plans to go abroad at the moment." ”

Kevin can see that the parrots are simple, and it's better not to let them think too much about it for now. But this is a problem after all, if the parrot has any emotional problems, or does not want to do it, it will be the whole network that will be paralyzed.

"Is there an article about the Internet that I can take a look at?" Kevin thought of something, and asked.

"Okay, you wait a minute. The parrot didn't say a word, and immediately flew away.

This time it's fast, and it's clear that the Internet issue is a hot topic. About an hour or so, the parrot came back with a thick stack of paper: "Look, these are all these. ”

Kevin picked it up and looked at it, this time there were no ads, but it was a confrontation throughout. One side insists that the Internet is garbage and meaningless, and the other side insists that the Internet has great significance, and both sides express their own opinions and give examples, and in the end they become greeting each other's family members, and the last one is almost all vulgar language.

Kevin was slightly surprised, is the quality of everyone on the Internet so low? In the past, even if the bard was spraying, he usually did not attack him personally, at most he questioned the other party's level of knowledge. And on the Internet, I directly tried to have a relationship with the other party's whole family.

"Do you still want it? I'll give you this week's, and if you want it, I'll give it to you from last week. The parrot spoke.

"Then I'm bothering you. Kevin is also welcome, and really wants to see what the situation is with the spray on the Internet.

Wait another hour, and the parrot will bring another bunch of web pages. The content of the results is much the same, the two sides explain each other's opinions, start to be sarcastic to each other, start to spray each other, and end with greetings to the family.

"Well, how do you feel like there are several comments that are exactly the same?" Kevin keenly spotted this.

"I don't know," replied the parrot, "is it going to last week?"

"What is the maximum amount of time you keep these pages?" asked Kevin.

"Theoretically we'll keep it forever," replied the parrot, "but we'll keep a backup of the pages that last more than three weeks." If you want to, then we have to take out the backup first and make a copy of it to you. ”

"Can I go directly to your website?" asked Kevin.

"No, I can't. The parrot flatly refused, "Our database cannot be accessed at will, only our staff can." ”

Kevin sighed, looking at the time, it was already more than three o'clock in the afternoon, and it would take another 2 hours to go back and forth, according to their rules for getting off work at half past four, it was estimated that they would wait until tomorrow to get the information. And this kind of mutual spraying thing, is it really necessary to watch it repeatedly?

"Is there anything else you want to see?" said the parrot's service attitude.

"No, that's it for today. Kevin repatriated the parrot and leaned back in his chair alone in a daze.

After a few moments, the crow flew in through the window: "How do you feel about surfing the Internet today?"

"The internet speed is very slow, there are too many ads, the content is too basic, and the price is too expensive. Kevin complained continuously.

The crow looked at the web page on the table: "Aren't you a librarian?

Kevin stretched: "I don't want to study lately, I want to be lazy." ”

"It's really reasonable, and you still look at catapults?" asked the crow.

"Well, I'll just take a look. Kevin muttered.

"By the way," said the crow, "I don't have my own room? I've seen a lot of parrots have their own rooms lately." ”

Kevin was silent for a moment: "You don't have any plans, do you?"

"What plan do I have? Even if I live with you, I can carry it out. The raven retorted with a sneer.

Kevin nodded: "Okay then, I'll buy you a birdcage tomorrow and hang it outside the window." ”

"I want a house, preferably the kind that shines. "The crow jumped up and down.

"Okay, I'll get a kennel tomorrow and hang it out of the window. You see, kennels are all in the shape of that house," Kevin gestured, "as for the glow...... Why don't you light a candle in the kennel?

Raven: "......"

"I've just settled down, so don't give me a problem. Kevin waved his hand, "Live with me, flutter up and down, outside." If you want to read, write, eat, sleep, and don't have to clean up, how nice is it?"

"Well," said the crow, he gave up for the time being, "but I will one day have a house with tables, chairs, and furniture, and those parrots have houses, and I don't?"

"I'll talk about that later. "Kevin is perfunctory.

"Huh, there's an advertisement here?" the crow picked up a few pages, but found something.

"Oh, there are so many ads, I haven't even looked at them. Kevin was not interested, and lay down on the bed.

"Is it a stage play?" the crow read, ""Demon King Invincible III" will start at 8 o'clock tonight, and the starring plastic surgery is powerful...... Well, the location seems to be just across the street from us?"

Kevin sat up: "Is it a stage play?"

The crow handed over the advertisement, and Kevin glanced at it a few times: "There is usually a lot of expensive tickets for stage plays, and I haven't seen a regular performance." I've seen some street performers who improvised a stage play. ”

"Is it pretty?" asked the crow.

"Listen to others, the strong watch literary dramas, and the weak watch martial arts," Kevin replied casually, "Actors are usually not really strong, of course, they also have a certain strength." However, in order to consider the perception of the public, the speed is usually chosen to be moderate. You must know that usually the Holy Steps are shot, and ordinary people can't see clearly, but in many works, there are as many Holy Steps as dogs, and gods and demons are everywhere. ”

For this reason, the martial arts of the stage play gradually developed into another performing art, posing more handsomely, increasing the range of movements, and adding various special effects. The strong can see at a glance that these cannot really be used in battle, but they can cause an extraordinary sensation among the weak. Over time, the strong also accepted this setting, and regarded it as a form of performance, and the weak also knew that it was all fake, but as long as it was enjoyable to watch. Kevin told what he knew.

"And what is this "Demon King Invincible"?" Raven asked.

"It's half a famous book," Kevin smiled, "This book was written at the end of the Second Holy War, and it's basically an anti-war theme. One of its features is that it has an open-ended ending and calls on all readers to write an ending for him. ”

"Open ending?" the crow was a little surprised.

"The beginning of 'The Demon King' is also a story of a brave man defeating the Demon King," Kevin introduced, "but usually in the work, defeating the Demon King is over." And in this book, defeating the Demon King is just the beginning. ”

"After defeating the Demon King, the world is no longer a threat, and the world is peaceful. The brave man ascended to the throne, he was already invincible, and the people loved and worshipped him. After hundreds of years, the brave man found that he was already immortal, invincible in the absolute sense, and possessed infinite divine power. ”

"The brave man is starting to get bored, he has been governing the country for hundreds of years, playing every kind of game imaginable, and finally he is tired of all of them. Finally, the brave abandoned the throne and began to disguise himself as a student, living an 'ordinary life' at school, beating up little hooligans for fun, and falling in love with girls. ”

"It's been another few decades, and the 'ordinary life' has been boring, and the brave man has changed his role and become the king again, and for a few decades, the king has been bored again, and then he has changed his profession and lived an 'ordinary life'...... After this cycle hundreds of times, the brave man finally didn't want to live any kind of life. ”

So he turned himself into a woman, and the infinite divine power allowed him to do whatever he wanted, and finally the woman became bored, and then became a man to play...... After repeating this dozens of times, the brave man got bored again. In his early years, he challenged the companions of the Demon King together, but he had already died of old age. In the early years, the companions who picked up girls at school together have long since died of old age. I don't know how many wives I had, I don't know how many husbands he had, I don't know how many of his children and grandchildren, I don't know how many people I killed, I don't know how many people I saved......"

"The brave man finally saw through life, but he still didn't want to die, he just deleted his memory. Let yourself start like a baby and live again. However, the brave man has the aura of the strongest protagonist given by the author, and he finally comes to a certain day and recovers all his memories. No way, it's so boring, I can only delete the memory ......"

Every time he retrieved his memories, he asked what he was doing, and every time he couldn't get an answer. Overwhelmed. Finally, after deleting his memories dozens of times in a row, he never wanted to delete them again. ”

"At this time, his force has long been completely invincible, and mortals are like ants. His wisdom is also invincible, and those who are praised by others are like retarded in his eyes. Once the brave man swore to protect people's smiles, but now in his eyes, these are all stupid smiles of the mentally retarded. He tried to train some strongmen to come out, but he couldn't. Because he is invincible, no matter how much he cultivates talents, they can't snatch the halo from him. ”

"The bravest man who used to be the kindest finally couldn't stand being with the mentally retarded all day. He decided to reshape the world, he decided to destroy it. A toy has been played with for too long, tens of thousands of years, and it's time to throw it away. ”

"The brave man has finally become the demon king, and the demon king has set up some levels with the last bit of expectation. Looking forward to whether there will be any brave people among these people, let yourself be a little surprised. The brave man did appear, they broke through many levels, and finally came to the demon king. ”

However, they are not the opponents of the demon king at all, because the demon king is the protagonist, and the demon king has the aura of the protagonist. But the brave man would not give up, and he began to attack with mouth artillery. said a bunch of love and justice and other big truths, many of which were said by the demon king when he defeated the previous demon king, and the deeds at that time have long been passed down as myths and widely circulated. Today's brave people are also inspired by this to become brave people. ”

However, as a former brave man, and now a demon king, he doesn't bother to laugh if he wants to. The Demon King began to respond to the brave man, telling about his boredom for tens of thousands of years, this feeling of real impatience, who can understand?"

The brave man was in a hurry and told a joke. made the demon king laugh, and the demon king felt that this world seemed to be a little interesting. So the time to destroy the world was postponed. This is the end of the story, and the next is the open ending. Kevin finished the story in one go.

"What's the open ending?" asked Raven again.

"Simple, what will happen to the Demon King after that?" Kevin replied, "There are versions of this ending from country to country, and they are all written by excellent bards and handed down. In fact, the book was written during that period primarily to satirize necromancers. Because necromancers deceive believers with eternal life. The meaning of this book is that even if you are invincible, you will die of boredom. ”

"Does that work?" said the crow, surprised, "if he focused on the time when the brave were invincible and happy, would it be more motivating to others?

"You're typical of an atheist," Kevin smiled, "For some religious believers, light and darkness, good and evil, the brave or the devil, these are the most important things." If the brave will eventually become a demon king, the impact on them may be fundamental. As for the pleasures of life, they are relatively secondary. ”

"And what is the end of our version?" asked the crow, "It can't be a man named Rex who suddenly appeared and beat the Demon King, right?"

Kevin shook his head: "Invincible is the setting, strictly speaking, this is not an ordinary continuation, but more like a logical deduction." That is, a completely invincible person who wants to destroy the world because of boredom, how can he stop it?"

The crow walked around and thought for a long time: "It seems that I can only keep telling him jokes, at least to make him feel a little interesting?"

"There are about three versions in my country that are more acceptable to the public," Kevin replied, "and one of them is that the world is destroyed and cannot be saved." Second, the Demon King committed suicide. He has tried various occupations and identities for thousands of years, but he has never tried to die, and finally committed suicide under the mouth of others. The only one who can end invincibility is himself. ”

"Third, the Demon King leads the people to a stronger and stronger state. The society in "Demon King Invincible" is almost undeveloped, and it remains as medieval all year round, so here are some additional settings to let the society begin to develop. It can be set that the development of society is endless, the exploration is endless, the universe is endless, and the microcosm is endless. Then, the Demon King will never be bored if he explores infinitely with his invincible strength. Kevin spread his hands.

The crow suddenly said, "Oh, that sounds reasonable. Suddenly, I really wanted to see this stage play. ”

Kevin didn't object: "Okay, it's okay now anyway, I'll go see it too." ”
