Chapter 142: Mind Recognition
Live broadcast room barrage:
——I am confused by what I read. Can a class representative summarize the main points?
Simply put, monsters can corrupt humans, and once alienated, humans are forced to commit suicide or be exiled to the wild. Dolanju stumbles upon a herb that can heal the pollution. Seeing this as a culprit for humanity's restoration of unity, the monsters plot a scheme, slaughtering fifty thousand warriors and deliberately sparing Ah Zhenlan, spreading rumors about Dolanju. Ah Zhenlan mistakenly believes Dolanju has long been in cahoots with the monsters, deliberately using counterfeit medicine to harm people. She returns and kills Dolanju, along with everyone else in the city who had received treatment. However, after the Thorns Empire was destroyed, the evil god gives Dolanju's herb a more appealing name, claiming it to be a divine elixir.
—So Duolanzhu was wrongly accused! Oh my god! This is so abominable!
——Yes, Duolanzhu could have made a great contribution by discovering the herb. Originally, everyone would not have to worry about being contaminated by monsters, humans would not have to be wary of division, Atelan could have come back, and if it had been just a little bit, the Thorns Empire would not have been destroyed.
How could the evil gods possibly let humans be? They've combined with the red-eyed elves, possessing extraordinary abilities. They don't need to fear other strange races, and can even battle monsters. It's impossible for humans like these to believe in the evil gods, so they're bound to destroy them!
——After all, Ah Zhenlan didn’t trust Duo Lanzhu and her will was not firm. She even covered Duo Lanzhu’s mouth and killed him. She was simply afraid that Duo Lanzhu would say something that would waver her!
——That’s right, you just believe what the monster says and even kill your own lover. Is it so difficult to observe it after you come back?
——Ah Zhenlan is good enough to Duolanzhu! Duolanzhu was expelled, but Ah Zhenlan still took care of him secretly. Duolanzhu confirmed the herbal medicine to her, and she believed it. If she hadn't guaranteed it, Duolanzhu would not have received so much support.
What happened next was nothing short of cunning, the result utterly tragic. The fifty thousand men she'd so happily led were wiped out in a single afternoon. A humanoid monster, never seen before, continued to spread rumors, urging her to kill Duolanzhu and her men immediately, lest even more people be harmed. Ah Zhenlan felt immense pressure, blaming herself for the deaths of those fifty thousand men, believing that if she hadn't guaranteed Duolanzhu, none of this would have happened. So, of course, she had to kill Duolanzhu upon her return. Didn't you see tears welling up in her eyes when she stabbed Duolanzhu? She was reluctant, but there was nothing she could do!
——Agree with the above, there is really no way. We are standing in the perspective of God and can see everything clearly, but Azhenlan and others know nothing at all. Combined with the story of Atelan, we can find that during the Thorns Empire, humans' understanding of monsters was very one-sided. Atelan remained conscious and kind after his death, but the people of the Thorns Empire just didn't believe that Atelan was still their compatriot.
Moreover, judging from Azhenlan's reaction when he saw the humanoid monsters, and the wars in Atelan, they had never seen humanoid monsters before. From a God's perspective, we all know that humanoid monsters are a higher form of monsters, but in Azhenlan's view, humanoid monsters may be those who betrayed the human camp after being contaminated by monsters. Watching them devour humans without any obstacles, Azhenlan would naturally feel that the contaminated people are no longer human.
——+1, Ah Zhenlan had no idea at the time that this was all a conspiracy of the evil god!
I understand those who sympathize with Dolanju and find his death at the hands of his beloved tragic. But there's no need to criticize Azhenlan. How could Azhenlan be any better? Love is affection, but isn't love for family, country, or comrades also affection? She went to war as a teenager. Of her eight siblings, she was the only one left alive (Atailan was trapped in a pool, practically dead). Every time she went to battle, someone she knew and cared about died. Her hatred for monsters is something we can't truly empathize with. After finally experiencing hope, she was told it was all a scam.
The 50,000 soldiers she led out were all her own soldiers. Among them were people she cared about. Seeing them die in such a bloody manner in front of her eyes, anyone would collapse. At this time, no other feelings mattered. What she needed to do was to kill those who she thought would bring disaster to her country.
—Have you noticed that monsters evolved from Atelan’s teenage years to when Ajinlan was in her twenties and thirties?
The audience’s discussion is far from over, and the live broadcast of the park activities is still going on.
"Ah Zhenlan" transformed into a porcelain doll and fell to the ground. A closer look at the doll's features and facial contours revealed it to be almost identical to Ah Zhenlan's. She floated into An Shilian's hands and said gloomily, "You can take me out now."
An Shilian wanted to leave, but she was embarrassed to find that the park's announcements weren't on, and she didn't see the door to leave the room. Could it be that she had solved the secret of "Ah Zhenlan," but the Fantasy Park, or rather the director, wasn't satisfied with her answer? After a moment's thought, she asked, "What should I call you?"
The porcelain doll glanced at her, and its attitude was a little better than before. "I'm the Soul Knower. You can call me Ah Zhen."
It's only one word less than Ah Zhenlan! An Shilian asked, "Do you have anything else to add about Ah Zhenlan?"
Ah Zhen stared at her. It was clearly a porcelain doll, but its expressions and movements were so smooth and lifelike that it looked like a little person. After a moment, she said, "Yes, your guess is a little wrong."
An Shilian wasn't surprised at all. As long as the result was correct, it was fine. She gestured for Ah Zhen to continue.
Ah Zhen said, "Ah Zhenlan didn't kill Duolanzhu because she was mad. On the contrary, she was very calm. She was already wounded at the time. What kept her going back to the royal city and killing Duolanzhu was the words of the humanoid monsters. They said that in eight months at most, the contamination would explode in their bodies, and then they would disembowel their loved ones. From the time Duolanzhu returned with the herbs until the 50,000-man army led by Ah Zhenlan was completely annihilated, it was almost eight months. She was afraid that tragedy would happen again, so she forced herself to return and kill those people."
"Later, in her dreams, she kept thinking back to Duolanzhu's dying eyes. She never dared to think about it, never dared to doubt it. She believed that she had not let Duolanzhu down. She had killed a puppet that had become alienated and demonic."
"A year after this incident, a wave of monsters descended again. The Thorns Empire might have held out for a while longer, perhaps even turning the tide. However, Ah Zhenlan, the commander-in-chief, was told the truth by a humanoid monster... Upon learning she had been tricked into killing Duolanzhu and so many innocent people, she went completely mad, lost the power to resist, and was slain by the monsters. The royal city fell."
An Shilian sighed. If she had been kept in the dark, she could still convince herself that she was doing the right thing. No kind person could accept the fact that they had slaughtered so many innocent lives. She couldn't help but ask, "After Duolanzhu's death, didn't anyone else suspect anything?"
Ah Zhen: "Of course there is. But there is a traitor within the empire. Moreover, during the eight years that Atelan was imprisoned, no one was able to research an antidote. It wasn't long after Duolanzhu was exiled to the wild that she discovered the herb. Isn't that a coincidence?"
Hearing this, An Shilian paused, and a chill rose from behind his tailbone.
To dispel the chill, she changed the subject and said, "Then my guess is correct?"
Ah Zhen: "Wrong, the herbal medicine that can cure pollution is vague. It's not because I haven't seen the herbal medicine before, but because I suspect that there may be a traitor here."
An Shilian: "With the director's protection, this is definitely not the case."
Ah Zhen snorted, "It's better not to."
At this moment, the long-lost broadcast finally sounded, "Congratulations to Warrior An Shilian for successfully completing the mission. Your team's points reward has been doubled, and the portal will soon be opened for you."
At the same time, Xia Qingqing and others brainstormed, combined their extraordinary skills, and created a new unlocking technology. Just as they excitedly said that they were going to find An Shilian and the audience cheered for them, the broadcast sounded and a door formed by light appeared in the prison of the Thorns Empire.
Everyone looked at the door that they had finally opened, then looked at the door leading out of the room behind them, and fell into silence.
Xia Qingqing: "So in the end, we just won by clinging to the boss's thighs?"
Ma Xiaoxiao: "What are we working so hard on unlocking it for?"
***
On October 30, the Frost Descent event ended successfully, and Chi Yizhen also completely reached a "cooperation" with the Four Evil Gods. After a good night's rest, he opened his eyes and found that Sal and Chi Xiaozhen had solved the problem of mind recognition during this period of time.
Seeing that the Mind Doll was included in the album on the park's management panel and placed below the Puccino, Chi Yizhen smiled happily.
He clicked on the details of the mind recognition.
Description: A strange race that feeds on human emotions and thoughts. They have no fixed form, no fixed habits, no habit of living in groups, and sometimes even their existence is doubted.
Characteristics: Can inhabit any human belonging, gradually growing into an individual closely resembling its owner. This requires the object to possess certain transcendental powers. This can be transcendental props, transcendental materials, or even flowers, plants, or rocks nurtured by transcendental powers.
Talented skills: Door of the Soul, Key to Dreams.
It was the first time that Chi Yizheng saw a strange race with two extraordinary skills, and he was shocked.
Door of the Soul: After the Soul Doll recognizes its master, it can create a Soul Door for the master. When the Soul Door is closed, any bewitching skills of ghosts and monsters will be ineffective; when the Soul Door is opened, the Soul Doll can detect the enemy's preferences and weaknesses for the master.
Key to Dreams: A group skill of Psychic Dolls. After gathering more than one hundred Psychic Dolls, you can obtain the key to open the dream. The Psychic Dolls will transform into dream beasts to create and monitor dreams. Death in dreams is real death, and the world created in dreams has a certain probability of being transformed into the real world.
Chi Yizhen: "This is really, too powerful."
Game: [Yes, players don't have to worry about tourists being bewitched by the Church of the Evil God.]
Chi Yizhen shook his head. "No, no, no, I'm not worried about that. I'm thinking that if I contract a Psychic Doll, then I won't have to spend points to build new projects in the future. I can just think about it in my dreams."
game:……
Sure enough, the players are still as picky as ever.
