Weird talk author drags the diary

Chapter 663 The Third Timeline - "Story" Line
Repeated ghost stories will appear on the cruise ship, and you will be rewarded with stamps after completing the ghost stories.

This is what the cuckoo told him when they first met, but he didn't take it too seriously at the time because he had more important things to think about.

The [Howling Cold] stamp is indeed nothing. Yu Liang had used this stamp to exchange for the masked man’s reward a long time ago. But this may not be the case for other stamps, especially those limited stamps that can only be used once.

After completing the strange story "The Man Who Obeys Time", you will get the stamp [The Man Who Cheats Time]. In the copy "Spirit of Consciousness", Yu Liang used this stamp to forcibly reverse the ending and stole the results that originally belonged to Aze.

Judging from the effect of the seal, it is no longer limited to damage or protection. It is fundamentally different from ordinary seals. I am afraid that only the legendary "resurrection" seal (Yu Liang is not sure whether it exists, so he is just guessing) can be compared with it.

[The One Who Cheats Time] is a causal weapon used in conjunction with the Trigger Theory. In the hands of someone like Li Huachao, it may only lead to unnecessary disasters, such as being discovered by the Guardian of Time and being punished.

If it were in Yu Liang's hands...

The operability is very simple, and the simplest point is that it saves time.

For example, Yu Liang wants to implement a land reclamation plan, but he can only create one continent at a time. However, with the stamp of [The Man Who Cheats Time], he can copy the action of "land reclamation" several times, and maybe he can really eliminate the existence of the "ocean" in the Barrel Man copy.

This is similar to eliminating all the barrel men, and is even much stronger than the former, because the plan to eliminate all the barrel men has failed in the timeline where Aze is.

The copy created by the barrel man Yu Liang could actually repeatedly obtain stamps by replicating strange stories. This was indeed beyond Yu Liang's expectations, because no matter how he looked at it, he felt that this was a bit too much.

Apart from anything else, he can definitely handle some simple ghost stories easily now. Doesn't that mean obtaining stamps in bulk?

The stamps can be exchanged for goodies from the masked man. With this back and forth, the writer can completely start producing stamps to control the industrial chain, inform the players of the ghost story strategy, and then send them to the corresponding dungeon to complete the ghost story and obtain stamps...

You can even have Li Huachao, Lu Mingzhe and others as guides to accompany customers closely and give them a perfect shopping experience.

Well, after the character column, item column and monster column, the capital group represented by the writer Yu Liang finally broke through the stamp column and officially entered the stamp column market, breaking the monopoly of the world of ghost stories.

When encountering this situation, Yu Liang, a qualified author, first thought of how the power of capital could be expanded again, and secondly, how to mass-produce the stamp [The Man Who Cheat Time].

Come to think of it, the Lord of Time is quite pitiful. He will probably be deceived from time to time in the future.

"You know more than I thought." Yu Liang looked at An Buchen meaningfully. He could feel that the current An Buchen was different from the original version or the barrel man An Buchen.

After Yu Liang in the multiverse, have several versions of An Buchen appeared?

You actually called me "Mr. Writer". Is our relationship so distant now, Miss An?

"Well, it happened in the past two days. After you boarded the ship, 'An Buchen' from a certain timeline died, and I accepted her memory for unknown reasons at some point." An Buchen nodded and said, her words sounded like she was apologizing, but her tone was still not relaxed. "This memory is huge and complicated, and it has affected my current personality. It may take me some time to digest it before I can return to the normal An Buchen in your mind."

"It's okay, anything is fine. You don't need to hide anything in front of me." Yu Liang was helpless about this. He had already heard what An Buchen meant.

My personality has changed because of my memory, and it's hard to change it in a short period of time, but if you really want me to change it, I can pretend for you.

In the final analysis, An Buchen's underlying logic is still that of a coward. She doesn't want to have any conflicts with others. Perhaps this is the influence of the "Legend of Immortality" that follows destiny.

In the past, she would say “You’re right, it’s my problem” when facing a dispute. Now, due to the influence of this memory, she would say “Ah, yes, yes, you’re right, I’ll just obey you since you’ve done this.”

Well, to some extent, we can say that we have obtained an An Buchen who is cute in contrast.

"What happened in the timeline you mentioned?" Yu Liang was a little curious. What on earth did An Buchen go through to become like this? And it seemed like there was a third timeline?

He is in the main timeline, which is the timeline where the real Yu Liang is, and the second timeline is where "Yu Liang" played by actor Aze is. What does this third timeline mean?
Who created something?

Alienated profession or root rule?

Why are we really going to create a multiverse of Yu Liang?
"That timeline... in simple terms, it can be called a 'storyline', but I'm not sure who created this 'storyline'. I only know that the protagonist was you, Mr. 'writer'." An Buchen continued with a fake smile, "You entered the Barrel Man dungeon as an ordinary person. In this dungeon, you gradually got to know Xu Cixi, Xue Wubin, Ren An and others. They were your loyal companions. Then, with the unique [Creation] ability of the Alien profession, you created characters such as Li Huachao to fight with you."

"One copy can create so many creative characters?" Yu Liang was a little curious. It seemed that his experience was compressed into one copy.

"Well, through adventures and gains at sea you can accumulate a special energy bar, something called creation points, and then you can create a character." An Buchen explained.

Yu Liang imagined the career of a writer and asked, "If that's the case, wouldn't there be more characters to create?"

"No, there is one missing. You died when you created the lawyer." An Buchen glanced at Yu Liang. "The missing one is the female writer Yu Niang. You didn't commit suicide and resurrect in the story line, so you couldn't create Yu Niang. After you died, the few of us who created the characters naturally inherited your legacy and continued to drift on the sea, looking for a way to kill the final boss, the barrel man."

Well, the rookie writer died halfway through, so he really can’t continue to create.

Yu Liang did not feel any surprise about his death. After all, judging from the ability of the Barrel Man's Root, killing a player was not a difficult task.

What's more, the roots of the barrel people in several timelines are likely to be able to communicate with each other. After knowing that "Yu Liang" is such a scourge, it is not surprising that the roots of the barrel people in the story line find Yu Liang in the current timeline and kill him directly.

Strange things may happen after Yu Liang's death in the story line.

An Buchen searched his memory before continuing, "In the early years, the Writer Universe and your friends got along quite well. Their fleet soon became a powerful player force in the ocean, occupying a considerable area of ​​the ocean, and even built several connected cities, forming a solid line of defense against the Barrel People."

Her face unconsciously showed beautiful memories of that period of life, and there was a kind of nostalgia in her expression.

However, this kind of nostalgia made Yu Liang feel a little...

Emmm, are the memories before my death not worth remembering?
What happened to my original self?
However, Yu Liang was still very serious when collecting important information. He did not interrupt An Buchen, but continued like a supporting actor: "And then?"

"Then one day, the Barrel People attacked us abnormally. The sea defense line that should have been operating normally suddenly became abnormal. At that stage, we already had a relatively advanced military force. Under normal circumstances, the Barrel People would never be able to break through the sea defense line without the direct blessing from the Barrel People's roots." An Buchen introduced their strength at that time. "At the same time, our scientific research team has put forward some targeted plans to suppress the Barrel People's roots, such as 'land reclamation', 'Sky City', and 'Negation of Negation' and so on."

A helpless expression appeared on her face. "Unfortunately, the three plans were carried out in parallel and have all achieved certain results. It's just that I don't know which plan caused the Barrel Man's Root to feel a sense of crisis, forcing Him to forcibly attack our fortress."

"Failed to hold it?" Li Huachao blurted out this question. It was obvious that he could roughly guess the ending of this timeline.

"Yeah." An Buchen nodded slightly. "Xue Wubin rebelled. He became a barrel man and used his identity to lift the coastal defense in advance, causing us to suffer heavy losses in the first wave of the barrel man's offensive and unable to recover."

She took a long breath, as if sighing about something: "And the reason why Xue Wubin betrayed is also very simple. For such a long time, he has been studying the causes, parasitic mechanisms and weaknesses of the barrel man. He even experimented with immature technology on the barrel man, which caused him to be often mentally polluted by the barrel man's roots. After a secret and risky experiment, he synchronized the thinking of the barrel man's corpse and went all the way to the barrel man's central network, that is, the barrel man's roots, and thus obtained the opponent's weaknesses. He personally formulated the above three detailed plans targeting the barrel man's roots."

"It was at this time that he was affected by the Barrel Man's Origin?" Yu Liang suddenly didn't know what to say. He could only say that Xue Wubin in another world line was really brave. He actually dared to synchronize his thoughts with the Barrel Man's Origin...

You really haven't watched Pacific Rim 2?

Well, it’s indeed not very good to watch. If you have seen it, you probably won’t do anything without any follow-up.

"Yes, no one can withstand this level of mental erosion. Even though he had made sufficient preparations in advance, he still did not expect that he could actually invade the sea of ​​consciousness of the barrel man's origin. According to him, he felt like he was 'falling into the sea.'" An Buchen said, "Although he escaped with a narrow escape, judging from the subsequent situation, all of this was a hidden minefield buried by the barrel man's origin."

"After that, you will really lose the strength to fight against the roots of the barrel man, right?" Yu Liang understood this.

Just like the Barrel Man copy in this world, the Barrel Man was originally just a novice copy, but like a passionate inspirational article, it has grown step by step to its current size.

In another timeline, the growth journey of Barrel Man's Origin was probably similar. When Yu Liang entered the dungeon, this guy could not have been in his prime, otherwise Yu Liang, who didn't even have an alienated profession, would definitely not be able to withstand the pressure of Barrel Man's Origin.

After all, the elusive "Zhi" in the zoo almost drove Yu Liang crazy when he was not paying special attention to him. The evil barrel man in his heyday was probably an unsolvable existence for ordinary Yu Liang.

"Well, Xue Wubin intended to establish a barrel man kingdom. He imprisoned some of the original players and turned some of them who had completed brainwashing into barrel men, but some people did not become barrel men." When An Buchen said this, he glanced at Yu Liang, and then slowly said, "Because the first person to be turned into a barrel man was Xu Cixi, and Xu Cixi couldn't accept it and chose to commit suicide. Therefore, Xue Wubin did not directly attack his companions later. But this does not mean that his mental state is still normal. In fact, he has gone crazy."

Yu Liang: "..."

Xu Cixi is dead?
Well, it seems like I died earlier, so that’s okay.

An Buchen lowered his head slightly, with a suppressed fear in his tone, describing everything Xue Wubin did in another timeline: "Although he is crazy, he still maintains absolute rationality. He just stands on his own side. He is not a player, not a human, and can't even be said to be a barrel man. He is just a-"

"Mad King."

"Crazy King, the queen bee is fine, just leave it to the beekeeper." Li Huachao made an inappropriate pun joke, which did not make anyone laugh, which made him shrug boredly and said nothing more.

He hated the timeline that An Buchen mentioned and the desolate atmosphere in that timeline.

If such a day comes, he will definitely protect all his acquaintances behind him.

Well, except for the military.

Li Huachao had no idea what he was doing in that timeline. An Buchen didn't mention it, and he didn't want to ask.

Maybe he died on the coastal defense line.

"You said that I came here five minutes later than the last time. What does that mean?" Yu Liang thought of what An Buchen said earlier, so he changed the subject and asked, "I've been here before? Because I experienced a flashback?"

"No, it's because of the weird story I mentioned, the one who obeys time." An Buchen glanced at the watch again. The screen in front of her cut out four small screens. "Four scenes, each with a two-hour time difference. This time the weird story is essentially different. Don't worry, each weird story reproduced on the cruise ship will have subtle differences."

"Yu Liang came here two hours later. He was the third person to come here, and you are the fourth." She said slowly, then thought of something and changed her words -

"No, to be precise, it's you one hour and fifty-five minutes later. Because you are five minutes late, the question becomes interesting. What things or people are inserted between the third and fourth you that affect time..."

"who is it?"
