I upgraded and added points in the Holy Inquisition

Lloyd didn't know why his [Projection] had such a new function inexplicably. He could only speculate that it might be related to the 'unknown fragment'?

I obtained the unknown fragment from the butler's [Story]. After a long analysis, I obtained some knowledge of the [Embodiment] system, and it was considered by Hiltina to be the 'higher' level.

Later, when completing the [Transcendence] of the [Embodiment] system, I also used these 'more advanced' knowledge, which finally caused the [Projection] to break away from my control and become ugly, ferocious and curious...

But regardless of appearance, the performance is surprisingly strong and has been recognized by many people.

Lloyd thought about this and thought that this unexpected new function of interfering with other people's stories should come from this, right?

It's just that he himself knows nothing about [story] and can't use this function at all. Instead, the Tentacle Grass, whose predecessor was the 'Thinking Monster', looked like he had done a lot of research on this, and instantly presented himself with the iterated 'new product'.

Forget it, it's useless to think about it so much, just deal with the matter in front of you first.

After figuring out a simple ins and outs, Lloyd withdrew his thoughts and observed the conditions of the other two players.

Both of them are getting more and more awake, and they should have realized that they are in the [story], but they have not started to decipher it yet.

At this time, it was less than half an hour before the start, and the speed was a bit ridiculous. It was obviously an off-game move prepared in advance.

After all, this is the [story] of a seventh-level strongman. Even if both of them are fifth-level, they shouldn't wake up so quickly, otherwise this [story] path will be too useless.

Do you mean that like your sister, you are also an editor?

Although the specific functions of these four holy objects cannot be seen, if nothing else, they should all be used to target the [story]. Maybe it is the kind of effect that helps to regain self-awareness?

Since you used an off-board move, don't blame me for being rude.

Lloyd quickly switched back to the 'Status' interface and took a look.

The content of this option is amazing. You can actually adjust the various attributes, status, and equipment of the two opponents here. It can not only make them suddenly become "Dragon King's son-in-law Tom", but also make them fall back to "Tom". Good-for-nothing son-in-law Tom'.

Lloyd almost laughed out loud and turned around to open the third 'Settings' option.

But that's not all, even their identities in the plot can be exchanged. It can be said that they are the son-in-law Tom, Tom's wife, father-in-law, or even the servants of the family, and they can take on another role at any time.

But Lloyd remembered that both the housekeeper and Old Olga told him that as the authors of the story, once the plot started and the characters were determined, the modifications they could make would be quite troublesome.

Lloyd said something in his mind and reached out to touch the 'Status' button on the light screen in front of him. Randomly, like a krypton gold mobile game, two sets of 'character interfaces' were opened, which displayed the four items of the two people. The attributes, system, and mental state are similar to the results of [Exploration].

As expected, the two men each had two sacred objects in their 'backpacks'. They should be equipped with them, and they were glowing slightly, indicating that they were taking effect.

Do you feel like you are in control of other people's destiny?

But there are several new columns below, such as 'thoughts', 'health', 'energy' and 'physical strength', which are more detailed.

Hehe~ As expected, the thoughts of these two people changed from the previous confidence and optimism to 'confusion' and 'dizziness'. They were already awake, but ended up being replaced again.

As a result, with my intervention, I can actually adjust other people's 'personalities' at will? Isn’t that more powerful than the [story] author?

However, this 'Status' column can only check the status of the two opponents and does not seem to be able to interfere. Lloyd tried to poke it with his hand, but it had no effect, so he turned around and opened the 'Backpack' button.

As a result, with this poke, a red 'disabled' symbol suddenly appeared on the icon, which seemed to indicate that the effect of the holy object was temporarily blocked?

Lloyd took a closer look at the 'thoughts' of the two people, and they all showed that they were 'confident', 'sure of victory', and 'complacent'. It seemed that they were very satisfied with their current progress.

As for the 'personality' part, you have to be very careful even when inducing, otherwise it will be easy for the other party to notice something is wrong and wake up.

Lloyd thought for a while and tried to reach out and click on the icon representing the sacred object to see if he could interfere.

Generally, you can only use the 'narration' function to induce the 'protagonist' to follow the 'plot line' you have prepared in advance, and you cannot forcefully modify the plot.

So one of them continued to clean the kennel, preparing to move in later; the other helped clean up the back garden, hoping to make his 'wife' happy and stop slapping him.

Lloyd was a little amused, but he didn't rush to modify this. Instead, he continued to look at the 'card draw' function below.

The result surprised him. This function was not to draw characters or equipment, but to draw their next plot?

Lloyd clicked the 'Leap ten times' button, and ten plot cards appeared randomly in front of his eyes, representing the plot that would happen to the two opponents next. Select one of them, and the corresponding plot will unfold. .

So Lloyd tried to choose a plot of 'showing mercy' and 'increasing intensity' for each of the two opponents.

Then I saw that the judge had originally planned to live in the doghouse, but his 'wife' suddenly relented and allowed him to sleep in the utility room.

It's even worse for the graduates. Although they are still working hard to clean the back garden, they can't even stay in the doghouse, so they have to sleep on the street tonight.

If the previous 'setting' is to adjust other people's 'personality', then this 'card draw' is to adjust their 'plot'.

But Lloyd tried again and found that he could only influence his opponents based on the 'characters' and 'plots' that were originally designed in this [story], and could not create a new character identity and a new plot out of thin air.

It seems that as an 'editor', my interference in the [story] is limited and I cannot fully control it.

I wonder if it will work after 'Krypton Gold'?

Lloyd quickly clicked on the last option.

He originally thought that this function would allow him to become a benefactor or benefactor, allowing the 'author' to write plots and characters that fit his needs.

However, after clicking on this option, there was only a solitary sentence:

"I am no longer the person I used to be!"

When Lloyd saw this sentence, he couldn't help but froze for a moment, remembering the previous [Veto]-type [Detachment]

I have already [vetoed] my past self that loved krypton money...

So this sentence is meant for myself?

Ok... thanks for the reminder...

Lloyd smiled helplessly and gave up this function.

Anyway, if you just want to help people win bets, the previous functions are more than enough.
