The World of Evil God game.

The first thing to do is to play a puzzle game about the original Death Gods. Even though those ancient dead have not yet fully returned, their information has already been exposed by these Death Notes. Shang Lin started to create a new folder on the spot. Speaking of puzzle games, there are actually such "ancient games" in the world.

That is the three-way game between detectives, police, and criminals! Of course, in most cases, the first two are actually a whole or simply a composite role, or the detective can be replaced by another term - investigator.

The detective character that Shang Lin is most familiar with is, of course, the famous Sherlock Holmes. This semi-fictional character has long become the best synonym for the famous detective in the world.

However, Shang Lin scoffed at the traditional practice of criminals using all kinds of imaginative methods to make investigators and police anxious. If he wanted to make a refreshing new game, why not completely reverse the process?

".For example, in the game, the player will play a god of death, which is one of all the original ancient gods of death, and the character can be chosen at will."

"Depending on the chosen Grim Reaper, his or her 'crime style', 'murder method' and 'death spell' will all be completely different. Even the subsequent plot direction and the location of the crime at the beginning will be very different."

“The ending is still a ‘free fiction’, which means it is completely open-ended and it is up to the player to decide which ending to get. In addition to a few standard mandatory endings, players can freely create new endings.”

"But that's also where the danger of the game lies."

Shang Lin began to input information into the new file on the virtual screen, and the information from the Death Note was continuously copied into it!

"The Grim Reaper can designate a murderer, or commit the crime himself. During this process, NPCs such as investigators, detectives, and police will immediately enter investigation mode after discovering someone has died. Their information and clues come from a wide range of sources. During this process, the player as the Grim Reaper must influence the investigators' exploration of clues, and use various methods to stop them or interrupt their investigation."

"Once the necessary clues are gathered, the Grim Reaper will fall into the first crisis; once the killing method is cracked, the Grim Reaper can be beaten by mortals; finally, once the essence of the death magic is cracked, the NPC will turn around and kill the player, because the NPC will transcend death!"

"Once the crime is committed, as the investigation progresses, the power of the mortal forces will become stronger and stronger. If you want to suppress the progress of the mortals, or even destroy them, you have several options."

"For example, they can either continue to commit crimes crazily, making the clues too numerous to count and becoming a tangled mess, or they can secretly guide and kill those investigators. However, in this process, the information about the killing methods and the lethal magic will also be exposed."

"In addition to this, there are many more. For example, you can attract external gods to kill everyone, including the player himself. You can also surrender on the spot and be sentenced to 1,500 years in prison. You can also point out the important weaknesses of other death gods and turn over a new leaf to contribute to society."

“It’s a whole new world!”

"The Death Gods are slaughtering mortals crazily here, and they call it the law of the world. Mortals are resisting desperately. People die every day, and new investigators and police officers appear every day. This is a battlefield between humans and gods!"

"Of course, important NPCs still need to know in advance what kind of game world they are in. Otherwise, for fictional beings who know nothing about it, they will die every day, and this fear will make their lives miserable."

Shang Lin attaches great importance to the emotions and mental states of the virtual lives he created. For this reason, many NPCs know that the world they live in is a fictional world, and they understand the tasks they have to do.

For example, there are wild NPC forces that provide various kinds of help in the Civilization game, and the ancient evil spirit that reported the illegal operation of the god of death in "God of Darkness" not long ago.

This is exactly what those classic sayings say:

“What’s wrong with the world of illusion? Reality is too cruel. It will only make this void bigger and bigger. This is hell!” - Fortunately, it is a fictional life, so this birth is like being in heaven.

"Over-reliance on fiction may affect people's observation and understanding of real life." - Fortunately, my life is fictional, so it has no impact.

“People who seek a sense of reality in fictional stories must have something wrong with their brains.” - Isn’t the reverse also true? That’s good too!

Compared to real life, the fictional world is also a real dimension. Each different dimension, different world, and different life has its own way of survival!

Perhaps in the future, some fictional lives will reflect on the meaning and form of their own existence and begin to yearn for the real world. If this is a novel written by the God of Narration, it will probably become an epic story of exploring the truth and understanding one's own will.

But no matter how epic it is, this is the Sixth Age.

When people from the virtual world come to the real world, they will find that people in the real world have only two attitudes towards them.

First, he calls the woman his wife directly regardless of gender, and second, he starts to go crazy on the spot, which is terrifying.

In the end, the people in the virtual world will definitely run back and give themselves two big fights! Why do they think they have nothing to do and run out?

However, Shang Lin is still looking forward to the emergence of this kind of virtual life.

Maybe it's just like the discussion about the game "Civilization". Everyone was discussing whether there would be a civilization that realized that it was virtual and would come out and punch all the gods who were playing the game into the sky. As a result, such a civilization really appeared.

This is also a kind of progress for virtual life, and it is itself a product restricted by the rules of the game. This means that no matter how crazy they are, they will not be crazier than life in the real world.

"Moreover, the means used by mortals to fight against gods can also be set to be rather absurd, or rather 'crazy'!"

"For example, in the puzzle games of the Kelvin series, normally once an investigator learns something that exceeds the upper threshold of his or her mental capacity, he or she will go crazy and die. This is considered normal by many people because ordinary mortals cannot resist the curse and pollution from the ancient gods, nor can they resist the real world revealed by the ancient gods (the world in the eyes of the ancient gods) that is completely opposite to the illusion."

"But what if this mortal is a staunch atheist? And this guy is an atheist in the Sixth Epoch?"

Just like the exclamation of “How can illiterate people be immune to the death curse?”, as long as I don’t understand it, you have no influence on me!

Or maybe I understand ≠ I have to acknowledge you!

Can God write divine writing? Can God speak divine language? Can God use divine magic? How can it be considered divine writing, divine language, or divine magic? It is just scribbles!

Although Shang Lin has not yet seen such a truly powerful atheist, according to the online discussion information of other gods, such atheists who are extremely idealistic and even surpass the level of gods really exist!

They firmly believe that the gods in the universe are just anomalies, which in a sense can be said to be pointing directly to the essence, and they think that all discussions and quotations about gods are daydreaming, which is just collective hallucinations and hysteria caused by too much fantasy time in the brain.

After investigating some statements made by extreme atheist masters, even Shang Lin, a fictional god, had a philosophical self-reflection: "Do I really exist?"

Moreover, according to the "Mortal Investigation Report" of some gods, the idealistic power of extreme atheists can really affect the gods.

Specifically, the gods could not give him divine revelations, and divine arts had no effect on him and would even turn into ordinary illusions that would be swept away. It was initially believed that the information core of the divine power fluctuations had been destroyed and changed, causing the divine arts to be passively defeated on the spot by the opponent's idealistic power.

The affected gods will briefly become close to mortals, and will eventually be severely criticized by the other side as "Are you fantasizing that you are gods again? Let me wake you up/let me help you break the hypnosis!"

The "Mortal Investigation Report" points out that currently no god can make a clear analysis of the source of the idealistic power of extreme atheists. The source of their idealistic power is unknown. The current more reliable speculation is that this power comes from the "collective subconsciousness of the mortal level."

"If one lives in a world where life is in danger at any time, then the collective subconscious of mortals represents the natural resistance of life to death."

"Well, then, the tentative name of this game project is "Death Investigation Report". The social background is, of course, the classic steampunk era. Baker Street, plaid shirts, and gear pistols can all be perfectly integrated into the background of our steam country."

"As for the plot, it is necessary."

Shang Lin thought about it and decided that it would be more stable to ask the God of Narration or his group of gold medal writers to write the plot. They could even directly draw materials from events that happened in the real world.

“This game will have a huge impact on the ancient gods of death. Even if they don’t play the game themselves, as ‘playable characters’ that can be controlled by players, they will passively accept the information from players, in-game plots, and NPCs.”

"Its main purpose is to convey a most important 'information element'——"

"【All abnormal deaths actually have traces to follow. They are not abnormal, and there is no need to fear life!"

“Fear comes from the trembling feeling of the unknown, but if that thing becomes known, then the fear and trembling will turn into anger and courage.”

As for the spots for the trial game, there is no doubt that the first batch of players will be the gods who are most sensitive to life!

Only when life knows the essence of death, will life no longer fear death, and then life will begin to progress, and so will death! The old-fashioned views on death will naturally be abandoned, and then they will no longer be able to influence external things.

However, during this process, Shang Lin also had some new "testing ideas".

"Can it affect the nature of the God of Death?"

"The current impact is only affecting the path of death. It does not forcibly eliminate the correct death. This means that the God of Death is not afraid of the threats from these outsiders at all."

"If games can influence God, as the God of Purgatory said, he wants to get a way to repair himself from Civilization, then this time, a batch of new games starting with Dark God may also be able to influence the concept of death at the God level."

Gods who possess the authority over life or are related to the power of life began to act spontaneously, using various folk methods and unreliable secret techniques heard from others to stabilize their authority and divinity.

However, the gods who have nothing to do with the power of life are still posting spam and engaging in verbal battles every day. They are still recruiting people to wage war against the devil today, and the number of posts has increased by more than a thousand.

As for the culprits who caused the life and death turmoil, they each have their own plans and tasks!

The first is the Goddess of Disorder who cannot be observed by any god. Even the name and information on the admission form of the fictional church are in disarray, which means that not even the fictional god can grasp her location.

This is probably because she is now just an ordinary, immortal mortal, but the composition information of this mortal cannot be identified.

But the Goddess of Disorder did gain something from staying in the Internet cafe in the Kingdom of Mages for so many days. Not to mention the prizes she earned from the activities, the most important thing is that her original strength has recovered significantly!

The green flame above his head grew visibly larger and emitted waves of mysterious energy.

That is the echo from the Fifth Age, an echo that can even disrupt history and affect reality!

Of course, this little trick is useless against the righteous gods.

The Goddess of Disorder aimed at a piece of trash on the side of the road. She could feel the divine power surging, echoing, and roaring! So she raised her hand and made a gesture. At that moment, she felt like she had returned to the state of the true goddess who was high above everyone else!

"Disappear! City trash!"

With her confident shout, a piece of garbage discarded on the roadside lost its "composition information" on the spot, collapsed itself and turned into the basic background color of the universe!

The passerby was stunned for a long time, and then he applauded the Goddess of Disorder as if he was excited watching a magic show!

Success! The disordered divine power has finally returned. Although it can only clean up urban garbage now, and it is still a single unit, one day, as your game progresses and the length of time you play increases, your divine power will eventually return to its peak!

The Goddess of Disorder has not forgotten her plan. When her divine power fully returns, that will be the time for her to escape from the Sixth Epoch!

What is relying on the power of disorder to bully people here? The goddess of disorder shook her head, spread her hands, and began to have a lot of inner thoughts:

There are so many supreme gods, which is a situation that has never been seen even in the Fifth Age. It is already difficult to survive in this new era, let alone dream of ruling the world. Moreover, the mental state of the gods in this era is not much different from those crazy gods in the Fifth Age!

I am a normal god, how can I stay in a big mental hospital? I don't want to die!

"Hey, young lady, I'm very interested in your tricks."

The passerby did not leave, but started to get close to the Goddess of Disorder. The Goddess of Disorder was quite dissatisfied with him calling her own magic a trick. She thought to herself that even if she couldn't recognize the magic, ordinary people would regard this trick as magic, right?

Is magic trick a niche term?

"That's magic, and I'm busy going to the church to draw a lottery now, so I don't have time to talk to you too much. Thank you, and see you next time."

The Goddess of Disorder thought she had rejected the other party elegantly, but the passerby frowned:

"The Church? Where do you think those liars are?"

"Miss, I want you to know one thing, that is, there is no God in this world!"

As the words fell, an extreme idealistic force began to spread from this passerby!
