Chapter 10: The Fifth Day of the Fourth Month
Duke agreed with Cheng Wan's statement, and after a little thought, he replied to Qin Ze in the shortest sentence:
"The calendar will bring a lot of benefits and give us different abilities that are related to careers."
"For the next seven days, you'd better not make a mistake and don't put yourself in danger."
"Hold the calendar and survive for seven days, the calendar will show you your profession and give you the corresponding functions."
"Maybe it's a cook, a doctor, an accountant, a housekeeper, a tour guide...... Even hairdressers and so on. ”
"These identities that are incomparably normal in reality do have corresponding special abilities."
"For example, I can move some objects out of thin air. Of course, as I move up my role, so does the ability of the porter. ”
Sure enough, Qin Zexin said.
Cheng Wan and Duke both mentioned that it is almost impossible for ordinary people to survive when they encounter this kind of thing.
But the fact that these two dared to come to the rescue shows that they have taken themselves out of the category of "ordinary people".
Qin Ze also noticed one thing - in Duke's context, it seems that he is uncertain about his career.
"Does the calendar determine my career based on some of my characteristics, habits, and way of doing things? That is, we ourselves do not have a choice? ”
Duke and Cheng Wan had already gotten into the car, and the two sighed again that Qin Ze was indeed a natural old calendarer.
There are many things that you can realize by yourself without going into details.
Cheng Wan replied in the group:
"As for the factors that affect careers, we are really still exploring ......"
"There were two people in the organization who did the same thing, but they got examples of different occupations."
"This thing, it doesn't seem to be qualitative. But it's not completely casual......"
"For example, if you are a doctor, how likely you are to be classified as a doctor in the old calendar...... will be higher than other professions. ”
"I'm not a mechanic in reality, but I really like to tinker with some mech figures......"
"Of course, this is not absolute. It just increases the chance. ”
Qin Ze probably understood.
This old yellow calendar is indeed a bit evil, and over the course of a week, it will observe its own behavior.
This is interesting because there are several kinds of work in Qin Ze's reality.
The first job, the backroom designer. Responsible for designing various secret rooms that players find interesting.
The second job, the script kills the creator. This is one of Qin Ze's main sources of income.
As for the third job - playing. But it's not an online game, but a secret room, a script kill, and a board game.
The main purpose is to lead others through the level. Solve dilemmas they can't solve. It's a bit of a board game mercenary.
The encounter with Qiao Wei was in a large-scale weird escape room.
The two admired each other's escape ideas, so they sparked a flame of love.
Qin Ze's work is not work in the traditional sense.
It also made him a little curious about what kind of profession the seventh-day calendar would give.
As he continued to learn about the calendar, Qin Ze also realized one thing - he needed to make a choice.
"It's six days before we know. But speculate. ”
"The most subversive aspect of the calendar so far is that it can affect reality."
"The greatest value and function of the yellow calendar is to tell people what to do and what not to do."
"I should be able to get a gift from certain actions. Taboo will put me in danger. ”
"Cheng Wan mentioned before that accumulating the number of taboos, as well as exploring in the realm of the old calendar, will obtain the manuscript of the golden calendar."
But when he said this, he immediately diverted the subject.
"It is speculated that the reason is because there is an inducement taboo. He realized this, so he changed the subject. ”
"But this also shows that although committing taboos will put me in danger in some behaviors, the growth benefits of taboos are great."
"For example, I went through the 'Draft' level of taboo, which led to me obtaining the Pledge and Golden Calendar Manuscripts."
Qin Ze touched his chin, and he already had a conclusion in his heart:
"Cheng Wan and Duke, like the vast majority of old calendarists, will not make taboos, because it will bring danger to their lives."
"Their choice is 'to avoid taboos'. There's nothing wrong with that. ”
"This also shows that even if you don't commit a taboo, you only need to ensure your survival, and the calendar will bring about a 'functional' improvement for the holder."
"But being taboo can accelerate this ascension, and there are many additional benefits."
"But the company's proposition is not to make a taboo. Because a taboo is likely to lead to a very bad day. ”
"When all kinds of misfortunes come one after another, it is possible for people to be crushed."
"It can be boldly assumed here that the Black Calendar mentioned by Cheng Wan and Duke is likely to be the one who was corrupted by the calendar after being defeated by misfortune."
"Their calendars will turn black, different from the normal silver-white ......"
Although he didn't ask these questions, Qin Ze had already guessed a rough idea when he first heard the Black Calendar.
"Therefore, the disadvantage of committing taboo - inviting misfortune, and the possibility of degenerating into a black calendar. Also, the taboo itself is dangerous. ”
"And the benefits of committing taboos will greatly increase the growth rate of yourself as an old calendarist, and you will get more quality to improve yourself."
Inferred from this, Qin Ze made a judgment in his heart.
"Yihe's avoidance affects all aspects, and it is likely to affect the 'career' after six days."
"The calendar will observe me, and it may give me some kind of function based on my behavior, my real identity."
"If I survive in this process, I will be able to experience 'taboos' again and again, maybe this will improve the calendar's evaluation of me."
"In the end, the functions I get will be rarer and more powerful."
Twice committed taboos, and the danger is vivid.
The place called the realm of the old calendar has too much weirdness.
But Qin Ze believes that it is wrong to escape.
He always felt that the appearance of this strange calendar itself meant that maybe two worlds were not far away.
Perhaps one day, humanity will not be able to avoid the realm of the old calendar.
At that time, I am afraid that only those who are strong enough can survive in that distorted place.
This is one of them.
"Second, Qiao Wei is also a calendar holder, with Qiao Wei's temperament, she will never obediently choose to 'tend to avoid taboos'."
"She's more of the kind of woman who stare at the calendar as soon as it's twelve midnight, eager for new thrills to arrive......"
Thinking of Qiao Wei, the corners of Qin Ze's mouth curled.
"I want to catch up with Qiao Wei, or even surpass Qiao Wei, and if I want to master the calendar thoroughly, it is impossible to avoid taboos."
"I don't have anything to lose. My parents have long since died, and I have very little social interaction. Even Jovi left me temporarily. ”
Qin Ze laughed at himself:
"Objectively speaking, I don't have the possibility of blackening, so taboo seems to be a very good way to improve."
All of the above speculations are actually Qin Ze making a choice to set the tone for his future style.
To put it simply, in the choice between "tending to avoid taboos" and "facing taboos", he chose the latter.
……
……
In the afternoon, Qin Ze and Duke Cheng talked a lot, which can be regarded as making up for a lot of interesting common sense of the old calendarers.
Of course, this is all something that some old calendarists can figure out on their own.
When it comes to company-level information, Cheng Wan and Duke did not mention too much to Qin Ze, a "temporary worker".
The other anonymous members, occasionally bubbling, but all talking about topics that have nothing to do with the calendar.
According to Cheng Wan, at the right time, they will provide Qin Ze with corresponding help.
In the process of chatting, Qin Ze basically confirmed that all his guesses were correct.
Committing taboos will bring high returns.
The clock was fast approaching eleven fifty-nine p.m.
Ever since dinner, Qin Ze had been waiting for this moment.
With the strange experience of the previous two days, Qin Ze is now bored even playing games.
It seems that happiness can only be achieved when a new day arrives and a new taboo appears.
The clock struck midnight again.
Just like yesterday, Qin Ze didn't look at what he had gained first, but flipped the calendar to the latest page.
With the appearance of a word that should not belong to the style of the Yellow Calendar, Qin Ze's face was full of expectation, and he gradually froze.
"On the fifth day of the fourth month, Ding Si Yue Xin Si day. It is advisable to bury, ask for children, and adopt children. ”
"Don't confess?
