Chapter 550: Immeasurable Merit
After understanding what Black Technology was doing during this period, Lao Wang discovered that Black Technology is the king of abstraction.
For others, searching for reality in the virtual world is quite abstract. It is better to use black technology and directly search for so-called science in games.
What's even more abstract is that he actually did it.
The works created by black technology are a bunch of strange devices. Inside they are a bunch of magic tools made by practitioners, and outside they are a bunch of rags and shredded paper.
The colorful decorations made the machine look like a large Christmas tree, and the constant roar made Lao Wang feel a little scared.
Looking at this huge thing, Lao Wang swallowed his saliva and asked nervously: "What is this?"
"Something that allows you to communicate with the platypus?"
"What's the principle? Don't tell me. You want me to turn into a platypus so that I can communicate with the other party."
Black Technology didn't speak, he just patted Lao Wang on the shoulder and gave a thumbs up, and showed a pleased smile.
"You are so happy at this time!"
At this time, Lao Wang didn't care whether the other party was his sponsor father or not, and started to complain directly.
"It turns out that this thing of yours can really turn me into a platypus! How did you come up with such an outrageous idea! This is the first time I've seen someone solve a problem by turning people into problems. You can do this with black technology! "
"Thanks for the compliment."
"I didn't praise you! I was dissing you!"
"There's no Disneyland where you are?"
"That's not what I mean! And don't use such an old meme now! Fans in the live broadcast room will think that I have no more meme to live here!"
Black Technology looked at Lao Wang in confusion, then pointed at the machine and asked, "Do you want to use it?"
"……use!"
Exploring the secrets of the creatures here has become Lao Wang's obsession. Before transforming to go behind the scenes, he still hopes to reveal this secret as his last souvenir.
Although he didn't understand the principle of this thing, Lao Wang still gave Black Technology full new trust and walked in.
This machine looks very huge on the outside, and it's like a maze on the inside. Lao Wang walked inside the intricate machine for almost ten minutes, and then found that he actually walked out of the other opening of the machine.
As he walked, he said doubtfully: "It's strange, I don't feel any change. Black Technology, is there something wrong with your machine?"
However, he did not hear Black Technology's response, but a strange noise.
The sound seemed to be made from melted blades, which made Lao Wang feel a little pain in his ears.
Then, just like waking up from a big dream, Lao Wang immediately discovered that his world was completely different.
It hurts.
The pain in "Nebula" is suppressed. The strongest pain is similar to being given an injection, and it can be adjusted.
But now, Lao Wang felt as if he had received a thousand injections at the same time, and every part of his body was hurting.
Immediately turning off all the pain, Lao Wang found that the scenery around him was not right either.
Everything around him was distorted, the sky was gloomy like a black hell, and the ground under his feet turned into red lava stone, which felt painfully hot when he stepped on it.
Looking at the weird scenery around him, Lao Wang couldn't help but said: "Black Technology, your machine crashed my game."
[It’s not that the game crashed, it’s that your vision is polluted. 】
Seeing the content in his live broadcast room, Lao Wang was stunned for a moment, and then realized that the research on black technology was indeed successful.
The content in the game live broadcast room is part of the plug-in. This content will not be contaminated, and it also allows Lao Wang to discover the fact that he has been contaminated through this method.
Asking Black Technology to share his vision, Lao Wang found that he had turned into a platypus in front of Black Technology, with two eyes like a little mermaid, showing a deep wisdom.
But looking at it from his own point of view, Lao Wang found that the black technology in front of him was just a blurry shadow, and he could barely tell that the opponent was a humanoid creature.
After carefully feeling the current situation, Lao Wang found a line of small words in his field of vision.
This line of text does not come with the game. The font looks weird and distorted, which is extremely inconsistent with the atmosphere of the game. It should be a special mechanism that only comes after turning into a platypus.
[Only when the fire of karma burns the body can one find peace].
After reading this line, although Lao Wang felt a little strange, he still made black technology popular in the live broadcast room, and then jumped in decisively.
The flames began to burn Lao Wang's body, and in just a few minutes, his body was consumed by the karmic fire.
After death, Lao Wang did not appear directly at the resurrection point, but came to another place.
There is silence and peace everywhere here, it is a paradise-like place.
However, Lao Wang had already been fooled once. At this time, he did not indulge in this place for too long. Instead, he immediately said to Black Technology who was waiting in the live broadcast room: "Black Technology, what do I look like now?"
【Tattoo. You are the tattoo now. ] Black Technology immediately replied.
"knew."
After waiting silently for a few minutes, Lao Wang found that he was gradually leaving this place, and the familiar tingling sensation returned to his body, making him find that he had become a wise platypus again.
After carefully recalling the current situation, Lao Wang roughly guessed the situation here.
Then, it was creepy and terrifying.
If there was no problem with the black technology machine, then the secret of this place would be revealed.
Not only this planet, but all the planets in the entire region are in the same situation.
This is not a paradise for small animals, nor a holy place for hanging up, but hell.
All animals are like him. They used to be intelligent creatures here, but for some reason they became animals and continued to suffer from painful torture.
Players will feel the pain of being pierced by needles, and there will be a strong burning sensation when walking. The local residents here will only suffer more cruelly.
And the only way to get rid of this pain is to choose a way to die according to the instructions of those inexplicable words.
Only death can allow them to temporarily get rid of this pain and enjoy endless bliss. But this paradise is not real after all. After the time is up, they will still return to reality and continue to feel endless pain.
Moreover, the text prompts are not obvious. Some ways of dying must be tried repeatedly to succeed.
After figuring it out, the platypus's previous cute behavior immediately changed.
That was not a bug in the game, but a tortured soul's self-rescue to get rid of the pain, but their self-rescue could not bring peace. Occasional salvation would only make the darkness heavier and the pain inflicted on them more obvious.
After knowing this, the atmosphere of the game changed completely, and Lao Wang's san value almost returned to zero.
You are really good, Fang Cheng!
You set up such a place just to mess with people's mentality, right?
After shivering for a while, Lao Wang suddenly thought of something and asked hurriedly: "Black Technology, why do they want to kill me?"
[Because of pollution. ] Black Technology immediately said, [Tattoos are actually a kind of pollution. He keeps rushing towards the players, actually wanting to pollute us and assimilate us into the same kind. But even without those tattoos, this place is full of pollution, enough to corrupt ordinary creatures. Those platypuses don't want us to be polluted, so the best way is to kill us. After all, dying is better than enduring this pain all the time. 】
Recalling the feeling of being pricked by needles all over his body, Lao Wang nodded with lingering fear.
After understanding the principle here, Lao Wang still had one last question to ask.
"After I became a platypus, I could see a line of words appear in the corner of my eyes, telling me how to kill myself. Black Technology, did you add this line of words?"
[No, what words? I didn't see it when I was doing the experiment. ]
After listening to the words Lao Wang said, Black Technology was thoughtful.
[That word may hide a deeper secret, which can be used later. And do you remember the purpose of our coming here? ]
"To make trouble?"
[No, it's merit. ]
Lao Wang then remembered why he came here, and then he was overjoyed.
I thought that hanging up was the key point here, but I didn't expect that there would be a master who directly gave me a double blessing.
With hanging up, the secret of the platypus was solved, the appraiser was found, and then there was a channel for merit.
And through my own actual experience, the platypuses in this place are always in a state of pain, so as long as the pain of these platypuses is solved, they can gain a lot of merit.
Fly rubbed his hands for a few seconds, and Lao Wang said excitedly: "What are you waiting for, let's get started! What should we do?"
[Based on our previous research, we found that platypuses will appear very peaceful after doing something, and it is speculated that doing things relieves their pain. However, their memory is very poor, and they will give up after doing something for a short time. But the text you said before gave me a new idea. ]
Lao Wang thought about it and said excitedly: "You mean, we can use these words to let the creatures here have something to do constantly?"
[Indeed. Although we don't know the origin of these words, we can constantly find the reasons for the appearance of these words through identification. In addition, we can burn merit to let us get the function of adding text tasks. In this way, we can free the small animals here from pain and gain a lot of merit. 】
"Yes, we have done a great deed!"
Lao Wang smiled proudly for a long time, and then began to work with black technology to study how to free the small animals here from pain as much as possible.
With the help of black technology, their research speed was quite fast. After one day, they gained the ability to modify text and add tasks. After two days, they started to use it. After three days, they promoted the construction in all areas and made this place a merit pool for players.
However, when Lao Wang came to his senses, he looked at the large factory with many animals in front of him and fell into deep thought.
Is this thing of ours considered capitalism?
When did capitalism become a merit?
