What was Yin Zhu doing during the few days that the think tank was watching Hirano San's playthrough?
She first took a nice nap.
Perhaps it was a lingering effect of the copy, such as amnesia after waking up, so the next morning she forgot about the unpleasant things from the previous day and started surfing the internet with her own phone.
Since Yin Zhu had already cleared the dungeon, the Dragon Kingdom live stream room was naturally shut down, leaving a black screen.
Occasionally, people would chat in the comment section, though the number was naturally much smaller than during the live stream. Yin Zhu scrolled through the history, and many comments were cheering "One-life clear".
...Uh, what else? How about I die myself to liven things up?
Some people also criticized Yin Zhu for completing the game too slowly and letting others beat her to it... Yin Zhu only read the beginning and then scrolled down. Why let these annoying comments affect her precious rest time?
Then, a group of people said "goodnight" to each other.
It was indeed night when Yin Zhu passed through customs, which is normal.
After confirming that the bullet comment section was as uninteresting as usual, Yin Zhu skillfully opened the forum section—before being selected, Yin Zhu used to enjoy browsing the analysis posts on the official forum in her spare time.
The analysis posts are all text-based, unlike the slow and long live stream recordings, which often require several hours of viewing at four times the speed, even for complete playthroughs. On the other hand, Yin Zhu graduated with a degree in literature, so she reads text very quickly, and can even browse several posts while slacking off.
If watching live stream recordings was merely to learn about different supernatural worlds and prepare for being one in a million to be chosen, then browsing forums was purely out of Yin Zhu's interest.
Mystery, suspense, thriller...
Even in movies, this is a popular subject, let alone since it's based on a true story. The Chosen One's experiences have become even more compelling after being analyzed by many experts.
Of course, this doesn't refer to those short videos that are taken out of context by marketing accounts: "Look closely, this boy is called Xiao Shuai. He has been chosen by the unspeakable and become the chosen one, and has been transported to a dungeon full of strange and unpredictable rules..."
Like everyone else, Yin Zhu once regarded the Chosen Ones as beings from another dimension, and considered them merely entertainment.
It's not so pleasant when this happens to you personally.
In the past, Yin Zhu would open the forum with a clear mind and start browsing analysis posts. Now, Yin Zhu opens the forum with trepidation and starts browsing analysis posts, constantly worried that she will come across posts that will verbally abuse her.
However, it's clear that the forum section is much more harmonious than the bullet comment section. We have the forum administrators to thank for that.
Yin Zhu read several posts in a row. Some of the posters even carefully attached live screenshots of similar situations of chosen ones in other countries. Their analysis and argumentation of the script were extremely serious, and their word choice and sentence structure were quite immersive. People who didn't know the situation would think that they had just taken a trip to Sin City.
"Netizens are indeed full of hidden talents..."
Yin Zhu even learned a lot of information about places she hadn't explored from their posts, such as the department store manager being a handsome older sister, and the fact that Sin City had a dangerous art gallery, and so on... But all of that is in the past now, Yin Zhu has returned.
Another post worth noting is the topic of the next dungeon.
With careful analysis, even those who aren't part of a think tank can sense that the dungeons are getting increasingly difficult, the maps are getting bigger, and the rules are becoming more numerous.
The poster believes that the next dungeon will undoubtedly continue to increase the strength of the Chosen Ones.
Now that we already have cities, what's next? Are we going to expand to the entire planet? Even though the people of Earth know that the dungeons are stories from other planets, if we really expand to an entire alien world, the sheer volume of rules would be something that ordinary alien visitors like the Chosen Ones could not quickly integrate into.
Putting aside their own questions, various speculations immediately began below.
Some replies suggest that since the Grand Theft Auto dungeons have already featured duplicate characters, the situation might not worsen in the future, otherwise the CPU would likely explode.
Some replies expressed doubt, suggesting that the duplicate characters were simply because everyone was in the same area, and that it was far from the unspeakable limit.
Yin Zhu didn't want to comment on the replies below, but she quite agreed with the original poster's question: she had slipped up several times in Sin City because everyone had different worldviews, which led to different perceptions.
If a new world is indeed given, then the greater the difference between that world and Earth, the higher the chance that the Chosen Ones will be exposed.
Sin City was founded by a group of people who rebelled against the unspeakable, and overall it's relatively friendly to the Chosen Ones, since they're practically on the same side. But who knows if the new instance will be the same? If the original inhabitants are very hostile to the Chosen Ones, then once their identities are exposed, the Chosen Ones will face a potentially fatal future.
No, the new dungeon will definitely be different.
Yin Zhu could tell from Lu Youqi's attitude that he harbored considerable malice towards humanity, to the point that after his talent grew stronger, he even chose to abandon his homeland and establish his own independent entity.
Lu Youqi led a large group of Chosen Ones to hide in Sin City, which directly caused the Unspeakable Tales Game to be terminated prematurely due to the escape of the contestants. This was a serious provocation to Him, so the Unspeakable stopped the Dawn Star's practice of drawing people into the dungeon and focused on destroying Sin City.
Then, when another chosen one with the talent of "Fire Stealer" appeared on Blue Star, he was killed by something unspeakable before he could fully grow up.
The events in Sin City prove that the unspeakable power is so strong that humanity cannot withstand it.
However, He is not invincible.
So-called immortals are nothing more than a group of people who possess power that humans cannot resist.
