Chapter 83: The operating mechanism of the day of imprisonment
Luo Xi flipped through the tattered diary.
As the description of this thing says, it is indeed very shabby, more like a shoddy handicraft that someone tore off a dozen pages from a diary and stapled together again.
However, the content recorded above is very impressive.
The font is very small, probably to save space as much as possible, so each page of the diary looks like a shrunken newspaper.
Despite this, the overall structure, arrangement and text are very neat and tidy, but it looks like it takes some effort.
"I have a magnifying glass, do you want to use it?" Hao Xiuwen really handed over a magnifying glass at this time.
"Thank you." Luo Xi took it and looked at it with a magnifying glass. It was indeed much clearer.
The diary contains a lot of introductions and descriptions about cards and scenes. For example, if you want to get the card [Power Blessing], you must enter a gym called 'Explosive Power'. After passing the level, there is a certain probability that you can draw this card.
Of course, there is more than one way to obtain certain cards. Unless they are numbered cards, other cards actually have multiple channels to obtain, but only a part of them may be detected and recorded.
Below is a description of the gym level scene called 'Power Up' and how to clear it.
The content is very detailed, like a real game guide.
It can be said that the value is huge.
If you have a strategy for this scene, then once you enter that scene, your chances of clearing it will skyrocket.
Of course, it is also clearly written in the scenario guide that even if you know the rules and how to pass the level, it will still cost a lot to actually pass it. In addition, there will definitely be dangers, and if you don’t handle it well, the possibility of dying in it is quite high.
But having this kind of strategy is definitely better than having none.
There are many similar strategies and card sources.
However, some of the content has been obviously modified, some has been erased and changed, and some has been directly crossed out and marked as "invalid".
Just like what Hao Xiuwen said, although the day of confinement is repeated infinitely, even this same day is constantly changing.
This "variable" is naturally the person who collects memories.
Luo Xi looked very carefully. For example, he found some rating labels on some scene guides, but they were not classified according to the method of "Chaos One" or "Difficulty", but simply marked as "Difficulty" and "Easy".
These are obviously the experiences that people who recall the scenes have summed up through their lives.
Luo Xi was looking at the diary, while Hao Xiuwen was staring at the ring on Luo Xi's hand.
Weird expression.
"Um, Luo Xi"
"what?"
"Is that a diamond ring on your hand? Or is it some cheap jewelry bought from the two-dollar store on the next street?"
"." Luo Xi snapped his fingers and summoned his human face card album.
"Oh shit~" Hao Xiuwen was shocked. Not only him, but even the dog in the store was startled, became nervous, and let out a low growl.
The human face card book is really too scary. Hao Xiuwen runs a card shop, and he even has a business of buying and selling card rings. Yes, this thing can be used by different people who have forgotten their memories, but the abilities attached to the card rings may not necessarily be inherited. It depends on the actual situation.
So he has seen the world.
For example, the 'Eyeball Card Book' that he showed to Luo Xi last time is an extremely rare one he has. It is not only rare, but also powerful and high-end.
Can scare people.
However, even the eyeball card book, which he considered to be very awesome and high-end, was immediately defeated and overshadowed by the card book consisting of six human faces by Luo Xi.
"Is this your card ring and card book?"
"Correct!"
"I used to think that I was knowledgeable, but now, I think I'm still far from it." Hao Xiuwen stared at the face on the card album. It was obvious that his eyelids were twitching and his expression looked a little strange.
He seemed to be frozen, with a frozen expression. After about two seconds, he began to speak gibberish at an extremely fast speed, which even the world's top rappers could not compare to.
This is already very wrong and quite weird.
Luo Xi knew that if someone looked closely at these six faces, they would be affected by some crazy mental power.
Of course, there are individual differences. Some people have stronger resistance, especially those who are heartless, careless, and very slow. But if they are very sensitive, or their mental state is not very good, they may be led to the ditch of "mental breakdown" by those six crazy faces.
I'm afraid this is the situation now.
So Luo Xi immediately took the card book back.
Hao Xiuwen was distracted, as if he suddenly woke up from a horrible nightmare. He first looked around with eyes wide open in disbelief, then looked at Luo Xi, stunned for a moment, and then said: "Do you know? Just now, I seemed to be chatting with a few faces. They said they heard my dog talking. The dog said that the moon outside is actually a forgotten eyeball, secretly peeping at our dreams every night. They also said that I am ugly, and that there are only numbers and letters on my body, like on my face, there is an S on the left and a B on the right."
"." Luo Xi stared at Hao Xiuwen for a while with a serious look on his face, and swore in his heart that he would never summon out his card book in front of this guy again.
"Well, the reason I came to you is actually to ask you if you know anything about the administrators and the forces behind them?" Luo Xi decided to take advantage of Hao Xiuwen's current mental state and ask him about the real matter.
"Administrator?" Hao Xiuwen's expression became more normal: "Do I need to ask this? Those guys are accomplices of the Day of Imprisonment, and they are perverts who play with us. They designed various levels and scenes, and then enjoyed the process of torturing and killing us. But if you look at it from another perspective, the administrators and their levels and scenes are also an indispensable existence."
"How to say?"
"It's very simple, because the Memory Retrieval People can only be born in those level scenes. The same is true for cards. Most of them can only be obtained from the level scenes, especially the [Memory] cards. If there were no level scenes, it can be said that the Memory Retrieval People would not exist at all. Each of us would be amnesiacs, and we would never realize this. In fact, it is those level scenes that make us realize that this world is fake."
Hao Xiuwen had obviously thought about this issue, so he could describe it from different angles.
Anyway, Luo Xi felt that the other party's explanation was very comprehensive.
Then, Luo Xi naturally constructed a mechanism in his mind.
To be precise, it is the operating mechanism of the Day of Imprisonment.
"An infinitely repeated day. When the day ends, everything will restart. The eaten apples will be restored, the destroyed buildings and items will be repaired, and the dead will be resurrected. Memory is the key to the imprisoned day. Only with the existence of memory can we realize the existence of the imprisoned day. Memory is generated in different levels and scenes of different sizes. Each level and scene has a full-time administrator to manage it. There will be a few "employees". The scene is the place where the memory collector is born, and at the same time, it is also the place where the cards are produced."
"The Memory Collector hates the level scenes and the days of imprisonment, but he has to obtain cards from the level scenes to enhance his own strength. At least, he can save his memories. No, this mechanism is very contradictory. Who would be so bored as to design such a place? It's meaningless."
"Why is it meaningless?" Hao Xiuwen, who had returned to normal, immediately refuted, and then took out "The Player's World" on the table, which he had read many times: "Luo Xi, you know, this is my favorite book, you have read it too, what does this book say? If you find that this fucked up world is full of despair, don't be depressed, and don't despair. Look at it all from a player's perspective, because we are players, so we can give up, because giving up is the player's right; because we are players, so we will never give up, because completing the game is the player's epitaph!"
