Chapter 57: An Opportunity to Digest the Potion Thoroughly

The previous "corruption" of Isla and Basel with interests, power, and affection has already made Glerint digest a lot of the "Corrupt Baron" potion he had just taken. However, the digestion of potions requires a certain process, and he has only summarized two rules for playing the "corrupt baron", so there are still a lot of potions that need to be digested slowly.

The two rules are:

The use of various means, including but not limited to interests, power, feelings, beauty, and power, to allow others to break the norms they originally obeyed in order to achieve their own benefit.

The difference here from the "bribe-taker" stage is that, like the previous Darnell who took the initiative to "ask for bribes", he can also help Gleilynt play. However, in the "Corrupt Baron" stage, the process of "corruption" must be reflected, and the goal must be changed from "following the rules to breaking the rules".

This is also the reason why Glerint's feedback on the role in Basel is not exaggerated, and his inner rules have not been broken much, only a little change.

It has the current effect, or because the rank gap between the two sides is large enough.

The second rule of play is to grasp the weakness of the human heart and "corrupt" it according to the weakness of human nature.

Glellint was inspired by the extraordinary ability to twist.

What's interesting about the extraordinary ability of "Warp" is that it can be used in a very flexible way, but the effect of the warp can't be too exaggerated, it can only be distorted within a certain limit, and if you try to distort too much, you will either fail or cause an anomaly. It's the same with the corruption of human nature, which has all kinds of weaknesses, so you can use all kinds of corruption methods, but only by "prescribing the right medicine" can you achieve the goal of "corruption" with the least cost.

For example, if the target you plan to corrupt likes money, but you give him not money, not gold, but the power of such and such an organization, then it is difficult to achieve good results.

You may think that it is not very easy to get money after taking power?

Indeed, there is nothing wrong with such an idea, but for a person who likes money, such "corruption" is far less stimulating than the sparkling gold and ink-smelling banknotes.

Then you may have to pay a greater price to achieve your goals, or even have the opposite effect.

In addition to these two rules of playing, Gleilint also guessed that if you want to completely digest the "corrupt baron" potion, you may be corrupted, and you must have yourself in addition to others to change your own standards, and you need to practice the process of "corruption" yourself.

"And what about my own guidelines?"

"Huh, this seems to have a resemblance to Sequence 6 'Facelings' of the 'Fortune Teller' pathway? You have to really look into your heart...... However, the Facelings are required to always be 'yourself', while the Corrupt Barons are required to 'corrupt' themselves and truly feel this change in their inner code.

However, just as the interpretation of tarot cards has positive and negative positions, the playing and digestion of potions also has a good and evil direction.

The core element of my 'corruption' here should only be 'the inner norms have been changed due to external reasons', and it doesn't matter whether this change is good or bad.

But this process of 'changing your own rules of conduct in order to fit the potion' seems to conflict with 'acting can only be playing, you can only be yourself'? ”

Gleilint pondered as he unconsciously held an uninked pen and slid it over the paper.

Gradually, he had some more accurate ideas.

"Well, it seems that there can be such a process, which is affected by some external factors, and then it is 'corrupted', and it changes its inner persistence and original norms, and then it looks at this process from the perspective of a bystander, and realizes that it is the result of being corrupted, not from the original thoughts of one's own heart."

"Yes, that's how it should be, so that you can actually experience 'corruption', but you won't be affected by potions and become its slaves."

"One question that can't be avoided in any way is:

What kind of person am I? What kind of logic and code of conduct do I have? ”

He actually has a very clear grasp of this question.

"The essence of my soul is an outer god, a 'child of chaos' in the old days, but my personality is not, the formation of personality depends on memory, and my memory is the 'traverser' Zhong Jianshu."

"Zhong Jianshu" received the 21st century teleological and consequentialist education. His experience is that his parents divorced, he was raised by his grandmother, and thanks to the convenience of the Internet era, he has heard and seen it, and he has really experienced many people's warmth and coldness. That's why I use layers of social circles to close myself in, not only not wanting to hurt others, hindering others, but also afraid of being hurt by others.

This kind of mentality, at best, is called "people don't offend me, I don't offend others", at worst, it is actually egoism, when something unjust happens in front of him, he may choose to ignore it because the "evil" does not hinder him.

"That's Klein's charisma, it's what I admire about him.

And myself, huh......"

Thinking about it, he clearly understood himself step by step, dipped his pen in some ink, and wrote down three lines of self-awareness:

"An egoist whose own life and interests are the first priority."

"A person who is too utilitarian is more willing to choose the 'beneficial' than the 'right'."

"A person who wants to live and live better, but doesn't really care about anything, can give up anything."

Looking at these three lines of self-evaluation over and over again, Glerint frowned, the joint of his right hand holding the pen turned white, and the hard pen was pinched and completely deformed, and the more he looked at it, the more dissatisfied he became, and he wanted to tear up the white page, crush it into powder, and burn it to ashes.

He hated himself like this, but he clearly realized that this was the truth, not a fact that could be changed by venting.

After a long time, he sighed, and added another sentence:

"A lost man, he's lost something, he's looking for it."

With one last stroke, he threw the completely pinched and deformed pen into the trash, and at the same time a rusty red praying mantis drilled out of the cuff, and the fire flashed in the compound eye, erasing the white page with only four lines of words - this is not the extraordinary ability of the "fireman", it is the ignition ability of the "magician" that Gleilint has given it through the "spirit worm".

The day before yesterday, when Morgan, the secret puppet, was killed by the "Iron Knight", Gleilint didn't react at all, let alone have time to recover the "Spirit Worm" inside, causing it to be directly burned by the demigod-level flames, and the "Spirit Worm" in the "Chain of Trickery" cannot be regenerated when it dies, so there are only 16 Spirit Worms left in the current "Chain of Trickery".

When these 16 "Spirit Worms" are consumed, the "Chain of Trickery" can only be used to control the secret puppet.

But there's no way around it.

"In fact, you can catch a few more monsters as secret puppets when you go back."

In fact, he has the "imprisonment" of the king of angels, and it is relatively simple to catch a medium-sequence monster with a relatively small body as a secret puppet, but he uses the "chain of trickery" to control the line of the spirit body, and when he tries to turn the target into a secret couple, he can not have much energy, and it will not be accurate to use the "chain of secret law" to release extraordinary abilities, and he must have a trusted friend to help.

"Wait for Jim to come back or for Carol to contact me."
