Chapter 3247: Who is to blame for the replay (Part )
There was silence.
The detective stood up first and said, "The hotel tragedy was your setting?!"
"What's the problem?" Greedy said, "I got the inspiration from the Bishop."
The agent opened his mouth and glanced at the Transcendent. Well, he should have thought of it earlier. The Bishop rarely participated in the game and it was unlikely that he would contact the Transcendent. They were not familiar with each other at all. The Transcendent designed the game based on his experience, and the probability of the game elements being too low.
On the contrary, every Schiller can look into the memory bank, and he himself knows what happened to the bishop, which means that almost every Schiller knows that greedy people who take advantage of others are best at recycling waste.
"Are you thinking in your heart that the Bishop is a waste?" Greedy asked the agent.
"I didn't, I didn't, don't talk nonsense." The agent denied it flatly.
Batman sorted out the entire background story in his mind, and with the setting of greed, the origin of every background force in the game became clear.
Originally, the origin of the church was a bit abrupt, because simply creating some strange events and then coming forward to rescue did not seem to be enough to allow the church to develop to its current level.
But if they had made a deal with an outer god and then cooperated with an old family born in the Age of Discovery, it would not be surprising.
The line about greed should be that the ancestor of the Siltek family has believed in evil gods since the Age of Discovery. After faking his death to escape from the royal family, he came to Massachusetts and established a hotel.
In the process of building the hotel, he did not give up his beliefs. He kept performing various evil sacrifices in the hotel, attracting all kinds of monsters.
With the help of the hotel, the Siertek family earned their first pot of gold, established a firm foothold in Siertek, and gradually turned it into their base.
With the advent of a new era, they are no longer satisfied with being an ordinary family, so they direct and act out the hotel tragedy themselves, support the church to profit from it, use the power from the evil god to create strange events around the world, enhance the status of the church, and step by step develop a dictatorial organization covering the entire world.
Very good, very much in the style of greed, it's the idea of arrogance.
"Even this background story was made up by us, so what did you do?" The agent still insisted on the point of the Transcendent.
"I made up the background story too!" The Transcendent defended, "Didn't I make up Madeline's story? Isn't this a good twist?"
Arrogant tapped the tabletop with his fingers and said, "Where's the reversal?"
"At the beginning, she acted like a victim and the protagonist's helper, but when it came to core interests, she turned against her husband."
Arrogance was silent for a moment, then said, "Do you think that after we read Madeline's notes, we will still think she is a normal person?"
Before the Transcendent could say anything, Arrogance continued, "Okay, let me ask you another question. What do you think of Bruce's level of psychology?"
The Transcendent glanced at Bruce.
"I guess you would say 'not bad', so it's not surprising that someone would read Madeleine's account of her loved ones' tragedy and think she was a good person."
The Transcendent was a little dizzy and looked at Greed.
"He called you a vegetable." Greed was very straightforward.
"Didn't you write it that way on purpose?" Batman asked seriously. "Isn't it just to give us a hint? To let us discover Madeline's true identity in advance?"
"He is not." Pride answered first. He said, "He is not human, and he cannot understand what relatives are, so he can describe all this so coldly."
"No!" The Transcendent denied: "Although I am not human, I also have relatives!"
"Would it make you sad if they died?"
"Uh..." The Transcendent was really stumped by his question. He paused for a moment and then said, "They won't die."
"That's the problem," said Arrogant, pressing his finger against the table.
The Beyonder watched as wariness gradually formed in Batman's eyes, looking at him as if he were a psychopath.
The Transcendent felt very aggrieved. He said, "I am also an intelligent life with emotions, but my relatives will not die. Does that mean the facts are wrong?"
"But you think it's okay for Madeline to write that," Bruce added fuel to the fire.
"Because I...well, I thought these were just some details, so I just wrote them down casually without putting any emotions into them. It's my mistake, is that ok?"
"What's with the skills?" Batman asked another question, "I can understand the others, but what's with Greed's wind blade?"
"That's not actually a wind blade." Greedy shook his head and said, "That's a spatial cut. My profession is 'descendant of a cultist'. To put it bluntly, this skill is inherited from my ancestors."
"But didn't you make up the ancestors?"
"I wrote it based on this identity." Greedy explained: "Your process should be the same as mine, that is, choose your profession first, and then you can obtain the corresponding skills."
The others nodded. Most of them felt the same way, just like Pride who first chose a Requiem from several professions and then acquired the skill of Requiem.
"What careers do you have available to choose from?" Bruce asked curiously.
"The descendant of a cultist, a captain, and a king." Greedy spread his hands and said, "I told you a long time ago that my profession is a rich second generation."
Everyone was speechless. They didn't expect that what he said was actually true. Aren't these identities just branches of the rich second generation's profession?
"Don't talk nonsense, that's called 'a descendant of a famous family'." The Transcendent said: "Your professions all have names, didn't you listen carefully?"
Arrogant recalled that the Transcendent seemed to have told him that he was a clergyman. He thought it was a simple adjective and did not expect that this profession was called "clergyman".
"I haven't asked you yet." Greedy looked at Batman and said, "How can you control corpses? What is your profession?"
"He is a 'Son of Nature' and his chosen branch is 'Corpse Collector'. I actually wanted to persuade him to choose Druid, but he didn't listen."
Batman sighed softly and said, "It was mentioned in the introduction that Faraines is also known as the lighthouse covered in snow. Although I'm not sure what season it is outside, if it's winter, where would the animals come from for me to command?"
The Beyonder smiled awkwardly and admitted that he wanted to trick Batman at the time because he thought it would be more interesting.
"What about the Joker?" Bruce looked at the Joker and the Pale Knight again.
"This is the 'Painter' from the 'Great Artist' profession, whose skill is changing the points on the dice. This is the 'Lawyer' from the 'Elite' profession, whose skill is persuasion." The Transcendent introduced the two people's professions and branch identities respectively.
Is it really called "Great Artist"? Greedy was a little surprised, because when they asked each other about their identities, the clown said that he was a great artist, and everyone thought that was just his exaggeration. Unexpectedly, this profession is really called "Great Artist".
The Transcendent didn't care about their strange looks at all. He pointed at Night Owl and said, "He is a 'policeman' among 'law enforcement officers', and Bruce is a 'disguiser' among 'dishonest people'. He changes according to the switching between the two identities."
Everyone else's eyes were focused on Bruce, and it could be seen that his identity was special.
"Well, at the beginning, after I chose my branch profession, the Transcendent told me that my profession is quite special. I can choose two identities, one is my real identity and the other is my disguised identity. I have two sets of skills."
"My real identity is a secret agent, and my disguise is a psychiatrist. The secret agent's skill is shooting proficiency, and the psychiatrist's skill is first aid."
"How can a psychologist's skill be first aid?" Greedy asked in confusion, "I wanted to ask this before, why does your skill restore health points instead of mental health points?"
"Because I'm not actually a psychiatrist, I'm just a doctor, but I call myself a psychiatrist." Bruce said, "In fact, I don't want to expose my skills, and I also want you to think that I have a way to restore mental health, so that you may not be so cautious."
Now Pride knew why Transcendence's tone was so strange when he asked if he could be a psychiatrist.
Bruce's purpose was actually to paralyze others. He had obviously thought about it from the beginning that this might be a game between players.
He said he was a psychologist, which easily made people think that he could restore mental health points. In case some inexperienced players only thought that this was a teamwork game and felt that it was okay to reduce some mental health points with him as a backup, he could gain some advantages.
"It has evil intentions," Greed commented.
"Okay, now the plot is almost in order." The Transcendent put his hands on the table and looked around and said, "Now we can talk about how you guys played the game like this, right?"
"It's a matter of background story." Pride said, "You gave them too much freedom. It's your own fault that they played like this."
"I don't like to hear that." Greedy said, "First of all, our professions are fixed. Even if we can choose a branch, there are not many options to choose from. This is already a big restriction."
"Secondly, I can't choose skills. I can't see what skills are before I choose a profession. It's completely blind. My space cutting skill is actually useless..."
"You're talking nonsense!" The Transcendent slammed the table and stood up. He said, "Didn't you use this skill to kill the protagonist?!"
"Do you think I can't kill him without this skill?!" Greed bared his teeth.
The Transcendent choked.
"You should really let your friends come and see this." He said arrogantly but slowly, and his greed was extinguished in an instant.
"I'm just stating the facts." Greedy said, "The fixed professions are already very restrictive. If you don't allow editing of background stories, then this game will be too boring."
"Although the background stories we made up were all absurd in their own ways, didn't they still come together in the end? Even if the details are not very rigorous, they are generally well integrated. There is nothing wrong with starting the game with this background. I don't think the problem lies here."
Bruce, whose background story is also quite outrageous, agrees with the view of greed, but he turns around and says: "I think the protagonist died too early. If he hadn't been killed at the beginning, at least we could have been led to the main plot."
"But I didn't kill Madeline." Greedy immediately defended himself: "I left a member of the main character group alive, that's good enough."
"But Madeline is crazy and didn't give any useful clues at all." Bruce said: "This is not my doing. I'm not a psychiatrist and I can't hypnotize her."
"Then how did she go crazy?" Batman asked curiously, and then he reacted and said: "I remember that the Prowler is actually an incarnation of an Outer God. Was she driven crazy by an Outer God?"
The Transcendent nodded and said, "But if greed hadn't trapped Ibo's blood in Doggett's body, Madeline wouldn't have gone crazy after coming into contact with his body."
"How did greed trap the Prowler?" Batman asked again.
"Use water. That thing is afraid of water." Greedy said, "At that time I didn't know he was the incarnation of the Outer God. I had to thank Bruce for that."
The others went to see Bruce again.
"An underground river," Bruce said.
