Shen Xingtang frowned and bit his lip. As if he had made up his mind, he opened his mouth and said, "Our world is a book."
Qiao Xuejun looked at her in disbelief. She just said that?
Zhao Xian narrowed his eyes: "Continue."
This is what it means for him to recognize that the other party is not lying.
Seeing that he didn't treat her as a psychopath, Shen Xingtang breathed a sigh of relief. "This is a novel about apocalyptic survival. It tells the heartwarming story of a kind and sunny heroine who remains true to her original heart amidst disaster, earning the love of many people and ultimately building the largest shelter for humanity."
Qiao Xuejun knew in her heart that Shen Xingtang was probably talking about her.
"She eventually reunited with her childhood sweetheart amidst the disaster, and in a grand wedding, they were blessed by everyone and lived happily together."
Childhood sweetheart brother, Huo Antu.
"When the wedding is over, the story ends."
Shen Xingtang's expression changed: "But, the male protagonist was killed before the wedding."
When Qiao Xuejun heard this, she felt familiar. This was the person killed by Zhao Xian.
Shen Xingtang looked at Zhao Xian with a complicated expression: "The story can't end."
Zhao Xian frowned.
He could analyze Shen Xingtang's emotional changes and knew she hadn't lied so far, so he didn't interrupt and let her continue.
Qiao Xuejun listened and felt that it was different from what she heard from the system. Where was the favorability system? In her description, there seemed to be no favorability system.
Shen Xingtang continued: "The book's consciousness appeared. It found the heroine."
"He said he could use the life of an ordinary person to exchange for the life of the hero, and asked the heroine if she was willing."
"The heroine refused. After all, everyone's life is a life, even if it's just an unknown survivor struggling in some corner. She shouldn't let someone else's lover disappear for the sake of her own lover."
"But the book is angry. If the book doesn't reach the end, it's incomplete. It wants to 'set things right' and make the story complete."
Shen Xingtang: "But the heroine was cremated, and the hero was so dead that not even ashes remained."
·
Shen Xingtang took a breath and continued, but his eyes became a little fearful: "—The world has restarted. Back to the beginning. The hero is still alive."
"In order to control the plot, the book consciousness seized control of the body."
Zhao Xian suddenly interrupted: "Don't lie."
Shen Xingtang's face paled as he immediately explained, "...the heroine was tricked into voluntarily giving up control of her body. There was no robbing."
She couldn't help but feel frightened, and when she said this, she felt a little guilty for a moment, and Zhao Xian saw through this small loophole.
Zhao Xian: "Continue."
Shen Xingtang swallowed. "This time, the book consciousness must ensure that every step the heroine takes is on the right track—she must be liked by everyone and build the largest human base. She must be with Huo Antu until the end."
Shen Xingtang twitched his lips in mockery. "But it doesn't know what love is, so it transformed into a favorability system, turning invisible love into a tangible favorability number."
That’s how the favorability system came about.
"The heroine's body is controlled by the book's consciousness. The plot remains unchanged. Retracing her past, she gains the favor of many people. Together with her childhood friend, she builds the world's largest human shelter."
"Until that man showed up, he still killed the protagonist."
That man was undoubtedly Zhao Xian.
Shen Xingtang paused. "Actually, the book consciousness tried to list this man as a target for favorability. But it didn't work."
Qiao Xuejun thought that this restarted version was more like the version she had heard the system talk about.
A heroine with a favorability system, she wins the favor of various people, including Zhao Xian. She tries to win Zhao Xian's favor, but fails, and Zhao Xian becomes a villain.
The male protagonist Huo Antu conducted human experiments and established the most powerful human survival base.
Zhao Xian couldn't bear to see this and died together with Huo Antu.
Shen Xingtang: "The difference is that the male protagonist was successfully resurrected this time."
Because the person in the heroine's body is no longer herself, but the demon she put in. No one can stop it, and Zhao Xian, who wanted to stop it, is already dead.
The male protagonist was naturally resurrected.
Qiao Xuejun frowned. "After the reboot, the hero and heroine are together, and we have the largest human base. Isn't the purpose of the book consciousness fulfilled? Why does this life still exist?"
Shen Xingtang nodded, his eyes blank. "Yes, I want to ask why too. Clearly, in my previous life, everything went according to the book's instructions."
"All that's missing is the final wedding and blessing."
Shen Xingtang was puzzled: "But on the wedding day, I found that the world had been reset. Everything started from scratch."
She looked at Qiao Xuejun and said, "It's now. A huge change has occurred in this life. The book consciousness wanted to follow the old path that made it successful in the previous life, but it didn't work. It even ended up in this situation today."
After hearing this, Qiao Xuejun finally found the source of the Favorability System's confidence. "No wonder you didn't avoid the early warning of the snow mountain collapse."
Because I have lived two lifetimes, now I am just following the old path, thinking that I am back to the day of the college entrance examination, filling in the answers directly without even looking at the questions.
By now, Zhao Xian and Qiao Xuejun both knew who the male and female protagonists she was talking about were.
Qiao Xuejun summarized that there are about three rounds of plots.
The first round is the original plot of the book, but at the end, Zhao Xian comes out and dies together with Huo Antu. The book consciousness fails to seduce Shen Xingtang and restarts the world.
