[The place I am in now is not real, it is a false world, it is ...... Hallucination. And this world, I presume...... Squidward's creation, or at least he played a very important role, could have an impact on the world.
And this world was originally running well, but I don't know why, Squidward is on the verge of madness, so this world is gradually becoming ridiculous and collapsed.
So, he's the source of the ridiculous. 】
This is the answer that Lin Li submitted in his heart, and he got the right feedback.
Although Lin Li was not very sure, the supporting arguments could not make him sure of this at all, but fortunately, he could continue to trial and error in this task, and at first he thought of other directions.
He began to have the first hints of this speculation when the cellar was gone.
Everything before didn't make Lin Li take this into account - this world is actually 'false'.
After all, this world, he himself is false, this is a world of anime transmitted by the system.
No matter what the characters in it are, it won't be surprising - and everything the system says is misleading to him with the phrase 'the world is presented in the world'.
In the anime world, if you have to be weird, these situations you encounter, Lin Li subconsciously feels that this is normal.
Who would have thought that this is a "false world".
After Lin Li found that even the ordinary land here, a lifeless cellar, could disappear inexplicably, as if it didn't exist at all, he sighed if he had seen a "hallucination".
Because it's so weird, even in anime, it's more like finding the wrong place, using unscientific technology, or seeing a hallucination.
The word hallucination woke him up.
Admittedly, it is also a possibility that you are crazy.
But Lin Li clearly knows that he is not crazy, although the recent events are very shady, but he is still a sunny and cheerful boy.
So he can be relatively calm when Starfish and Mr. Krabs turn into coral and dirt.
In addition, the system also gives a hidden hint: the goal of the mission is to find the true source of all the absurdity.
In other words, there is a "mastermind" behind all of this - although it is not explicitly said whether it is a person or a thing, but this is enough.
As for why that person is Squidward, when this conclusion has been reached, when it is necessary to reverse speculate on the most likely "mastermind" behind the scenes, there are many reasons for pointing to Squidward, and Lin Li is very sure.
It was Squidward who guided him to find this cellar by himself, and to some extent, it was he who opened up the abnormal side of this story.
Starfish, the dead Mr. Krabs, and Gary, the three of them have all fallen into madness, and they can't understand what they have done, but they all have one thing in common, they all call themselves as:
"Mr. Lin Li".
In Beechburg, the only residents who will call themselves so are Squidward.
Their words, under the prefix of madness, are not surprising to say anything, and now when you push back from the results, you will find a lot of differences.
[This is simply impossible, how can such a thing appear in this world, how can such a thing exist in this world. It's amazing, it's incredible. 】
【…… Starfish are actually one of the creatures I hate the most, not one of them. Actually, I hate a lot of people, Patrick, Mr. Krabs, Sandy...... No, maybe everyone in Beechburg except SpongeBob SquarePants. 】
[I really feel like I'm going crazy, no, I'm crazy, otherwise how could I be in this place at this time, in such a way, to say these things? 】
A starfish imprisoned far from Beechburg actually knows the names of its inhabitants, and inexplicably likes SpongeBob SquarePants and hates others.
Lin Li now thinks that the person who said those words to himself is actually 'Squidward'.
Gary too.
If the starfish can be said to have heard his name when Mr. Krabs called his name, so he could call his name, but Gary had never heard his name at all, and he had never introduced himself in front of him, but he naturally called out Mr. Lin Li.
He knows too many things that shouldn't be known, has a pure appreciation for SpongeBob SquarePants, and is the 'friend who cares the most'.
He and starfish also have some things in common.
Because he was a snail, Lin Li didn't think much about it at the time, and even thought that he was the real source, but the system didn't respond.
[This world is no longer suitable for him. 】
[I feel that I am about to go crazy, and I am on the verge of collapse. So the world is going crazy too. Do you feel it? The world is no longer normal, Mr. Lin Li. 】
["SpongeBob SquarePants, he is pure, clean, and immaculate. He's my best friend. He shouldn't have seen the collapse of this world, he should have lived in a beautiful life, otherwise with his fragile heart, he might be seriously hurt.
Of course, I'm even more scared that he'll join the Honkai team, and I don't want to see that kind of picture. 】
But in retrospect, he was also talking about 'Squidward'.
And Lin Li can now understand his explanation of SpongeBob SquarePants, SpongeBob is indeed not dead, let alone killed by him, and it is even more impossible for him to find the body, because he has disappeared in the literal sense.
Disappeared from this world - no longer fantasized.
[Without a body, I create, I destroy. 】
[This is the end of his story, but it doesn't matter, my story is about to end, everyone's story is coming to an end.] 】
The words "world" and "story" are also explained, referring to his fantasy world, not a copy of the world that only he knows.
After solving Mr. Krabs by himself, when everyone disappeared, the first person he met was Squidward, who almost didn't recognize him.
[Is it you, Mr. Lin Li, I'm sorry, I've been a little tired recently, I haven't rested well, and my mental state is not very good, if I continue, I will definitely go crazy. 】
Squidward is going crazy too, but he's the only one who really wants to go crazy.
The world is also ridiculous because of his madness.
When he calmed down a bit, the residents reappeared, and the normal Krabs and Plankton did not die.
Lin Li finally cut himself with coral, also to verify the color of his blood.
Blue is not harmony, the system is not boring to this point - the world is already so ridiculous, it is impossible to emphasize green health and freshness in these aspects, right?
- Well, if it's this unreliable system, it's sick, and Lin Li doesn't think it's impossible.
It doesn't matter, in short, the color of the blood is because the blood of the octopus is blue, so the blood of all creatures in this world is blue, including the forest that should definitely be red.
These arguments supported Lin Li's judgment that this was a false world that Squidward could influence, and that he was the source of the absurdity.
Although there are still many doubts that cannot be explained, but I have the system as a plug-in, unless there is an outrageous situation where the world affects the system, then this is the correct answer.
Lin Li stood up and looked at the sky, a harmonious blue.
Looking at the refreshed task, Lin Li was silent.
"Squidward, are you there? Can you come out and have a chat? He asked.
There was silence at first, but there was no response.
Just when Lin Li was about to go back to the Crab Castle King to find Squidward.
"Yes." Squidward replied.
