If you become a monster, you will succeed

Seeing that Feng Xue hadn't spoken for a long time, Lao Li thought he was overwhelmed by the shocking news, and immediately waved his hand and said:

"Actually, you haven't reached the time to think about these things. The main reason why I tell you so much is to explain your original question."

"You mean joining?" Feng Xue pinched her brows, waiting for Lao Li's next words, and Lao Li didn't hold back anymore, and said directly:

"That's right, in fact, the entire Infinite City is like a large server, everything in it is data, and professional people are programs one by one, and tags are the 'notes' of our programs with specific functions. The "official entry" in the question actually represents the first run of the program after being recognized. Simply put, finding a job is like pushing a program to Infinity City, but only after you have played the function that the program should have. , Infinite City will really recognize you as this kind of program."

"According to you, those corpses that may turn into bad omens are data redundancy that will cause bugs. We corpse collectors are actually data cleaning software?" Feng Xue felt more and more like a Digimon, Even looking for a divine plan or an arc machine to see if I can evolve or something - well, maybe get a real world animal trainer?

Old Li, who didn't know what Feng Xue was thinking, was very satisfied with his metaphor. He kept this statement in his heart, and decided to say it the next time he met other novices, but nodded without any change on the surface, and continued. :

"As you can imagine, after confirming that we do have the corresponding functions, Infinite City had to allocate some computing resources to us in order for our programs to run, and the badge is the medium for receiving resources, um, you Think of it as wages and payroll cards."

Having said that, Lao Li reached out and tapped his badge a few times, and then a few coins landed in his hand:

"After completing the work, Infinite City will issue a certain amount of Tokens. You can use these Tokens to buy equivalent food or other things, and those gangsters will be happy to accept them."

When Lao Li said this, Feng Xue could clearly see that there was a look of dissatisfaction on his face, but it was not easy for him to ask about such matters that were likely to be related to personal grievances, so he could only change the subject and ask Questions that I am very concerned about:

"You seemed to be surprised at the speed at which I condensed the labels before? Isn't it possible to automatically condense the labels after taking office?"

"How can it be?!"

Hearing Feng Xue's question, Lao Li stared as if his hair had exploded and said:

"If you can condense the labels when you take office, then the labels will not be so rare!"

Having said that, he took two deep breaths to calm down his excitement, and then continued:

"Didn't I say that? We are all 'garbage' that other worlds don't want. It is [Nothing]. Condensing labels is a process from nothing to something. Labels can make us more present, from 'who "Become" the corpse collector", become "the street stalker who collects corpses", become "the street stalker who likes to guide novices to collect corpses"... Little by little, he gradually has a complete sense of existence, and finally becomes able to be seen People can fully and independently recognize..."

"Strange talk?" Feng Xue raised her eyebrows, as if she understood something. When Lao Li heard these two words, he nodded immediately, and his eyes inevitably showed a bit of longing——

"That's right, it's a ghost story. If you want to become a ghost story, you need to become an independent individual first. This requires a lot of labels to achieve it. I heard from the old-timers that when the Infinite City first appeared, the agglomeration of labels was still very easy. But later, as the number of residents in Infinite City began to increase, major gang forces cut off the passage from the landfill to the residential area, and completely monopolized important facilities such as banks and libraries, making it more and more difficult for the residents of the landfill to gather labels Big, up to now, there is only one option left to 'play'."

"Acting? Isn't it a job?" Feng Xue keenly noticed the difference in Lao Li's words, and Lao Li nodded when he heard the words:

"That's right, impersonation, to put it simply, is to imitate the behavior of a certain profession, so that you have the corresponding tendency, and over time, you can condense the corresponding label. We call this method the 'acting method'. "

"The acting method is okay... Then, can I, the corpse collector, still be able to advance to become a god of death?" Feng Xue immediately rolled her eyes when she heard this word, but Old Li nodded in a serious manner and said:

"Of course, but that's not just one or two tags!"

Having said that, Lao Li shook his head dejectedly again, and changed the topic back:

"All in all, when Infinity City first appeared, the cohesion of labels was relatively easy. At that time, if you want to work for a certain profession, you must have the label of the corresponding profession.

"And as the access to residential areas is cut off, those high-quality occupations are basically monopolized by gang forces, and such dangerous, tiring, and lucrative occupations like corpse collectors, few people can live long enough to condense Labels come.

"Later, the employment agency gradually lowered the entry standards. As long as you have the [elements] corresponding to the occupation, you can get a job."

"Essentials? What is that?" Feng Xue heard this noun that overlapped with her golden finger again, and immediately asked. After hearing this, Lao Li realized that he hadn't said this before, so he could only add:

"[Element] is the basic unit that constitutes [Label]. If [Consciousness] is 0 and 1, and [Label] is a complete program, then [Element] is a piece of code. The so-called acting method is actually through acting. Let the [knowledge] in the body form the corresponding [elements], but except for a few occupations with special labels, most people cannot see other people's elements."

"That is to say, I moved the corpse last night so that I had certain elements required for the label [Corpse Collector], and after I took office, when I collected the corpse, I condensed other elements, which happened to form the label of [Corpse Collector] ?" Feng Xue felt that this reason was a bit ridiculous, if it was really such a coincidence, then he should really wonder if there was a priest squatting in the corner.

Fortunately, Lao Li just shook his head when he heard Feng Xue's words, and then said solemnly:

"How can there be such a coincidence! Didn't I say it? The label is a comment, so in addition to our own cohesion, there is also the possibility that Infinite City will issue it directly. The lowering of the standard by the employment agency can be understood as Infinite City There is no easy-to-use cleaning software, so I found a software with cleaning function and used it without knowing what software. On the other hand, if he finds a software that cleans up very well, then it can also directly label this software as 'cleaning software ' comment. I think you did a good job collecting corpses twice, so Infinity City thought you were a material for a corpse collector, so it sent you a tag directly to let you continue to work hard..."

"Is that okay?" Feng Xue asked with wide eyes in disbelief, but Lao Li said with a "what's the matter" expression:

"Actually, this situation is the most formal channel to obtain labels. Decades ago, everyone could directly obtain labels by practicing their skills. In contrast, acting is the evil way of evil. It’s not that the library is monopolized, nor is there only one path left, but as long as there is a label, you can use the knowledge in the label to comprehend by analogy. You have already obtained the most difficult first label, and then you just need to study hard That's it."
