As a player, can you be normal?

Chapter 805 The Collapsed Scholar and the Old Man
Li Nuo kicked the scholar squarely in the face, sending him flying out of the car like a ball. He scrambled around and braced himself against the ground, leaving a trail of cracked spiderweb-like marks.

Shafa and the others were dumbfounded.

They didn't know the scholar, but the moment he appeared, he exuded an inviolable and unassailable authority. Even though he was now a crippled scholar, he still stood above most players and could still act as a monarch in this small world.

Amanda's Dragonslayer sword began to vibrate; the sword sensed evil and wanted to kill the scholar.

But the scholar didn't care about these players; he just stared intently at Li Nuo.

Want to give it a try?

The scholar seemed to be filled with rage, wanting to kill the guy who had gotten himself into this state.

Whenever Li Nuo heard his laughter, he couldn't help but think of the scholar's crimes against Mu Lan's world.

"You're alive because of me. Mulan thanked you and pitied you. You should answer my questions properly. If you show that gloating expression, I don't mind trying to kill you."

"Okay, right here."

The two people were on the left and right.

Li Nuo's entire body erupted with blue flames, and Cuihua sprang from his shoulder, opening her mouth wide to absorb the natural elements.

The scholar removed his work cap, revealing his long, golden hair. His veins bulged all over his body, and the "Book of Scholars" appeared in his hand. His invisible aura pressed down so hard that the air seemed to groan.

The cane whistled through the air.

The scholar's book, turned in the wind, reveals its magical radiance.

The moment the two made their move, the old man slammed a wrench into the scholar's head, and Peters used spatial magic to bind Li Nuo's legs.

Xiao Wu stood in the middle and clapped her hands.

"draw!"

The scholar squatted down, clutching his head in pain, his eyes bulging outwards: "You old bastard...!"

Peters, holding Li Nuo down, said to the scholar, "Neither you nor I are the original Gods of the World. Know your place, or I'll attack you before I can. And you, Li Nuo, control your temper. You might not be able to beat him."

Shafa stood up from the hot spring water, put on her clothes, and came out to act as a peacemaker: "Let's talk about... exactly what happened?"

When tensions are high, it often works well when someone who is uninvolved says something "off-topic".

Li Nuo just wanted to know what was going on with Miaham's data.

After the scholar became honest, he told everything he knew.

"The Demon God Galdella is the King of the Borderlands, but as you should know, the Borderlands are vast, so vast that you can't see the end. It's where the World Tree throws its trash, filtering out abnormal energy from outside the World Tree. That's why some uncontrollable and terrifying forces often appear in the Borderlands."

“Miaham is just one of them. A thousand years ago, there were many great demons in the border jail, and these demons were composed of three forces.”

The scholar pulled out the "Book of Scholars" and presented this information to everyone.

"The Gates of Hell are connected to the faith, the power of demons or other abnormal energies, and imagination generated from the outside world."

The first two are relatively easy to explain; they are simply cases where the gates of the border invade another world, leading to the emergence of faith in that world, such as the miracle of suffering.

The demon or unusual energy originates from outside the World Tree.

Imagination is the projection of "evil" onto the vast world. Succubi, demons, higher-dimensional demons, messengers of hell, and even ghosts and gods are all related to these things.

Miaham's creation stemmed from imagination.

"Great Demons is their collective name. There are even Great Demons with the power of Ancient Gods. Succubi are just one of them. These things all have the power of a ruler, or are close to the power of a ruler."

The scholar began to recount a past event.

"Back then, in order to defeat the Demon God, I went to the Border Prison, where I absorbed some 'knowledge' and created a group of guards."

That group of guards was protecting Anmi, but the price of absorbing the power of the Border Prison was very high, with an extremely strong backlash, so the scholars dared not try it again.

"I learned about Miaham's story there. Demons exist in the border prison, and high-dimensional demons are servants of the great demons. Li Nuo, you should know very well that the Mirror Master Gaunt Odim, a servant who escaped from the hands of a demon god, could actually become a god who wreaks havoc on the world."

The power of the Great Demon and the Administrator far surpasses that of ordinary worldviews.

"More than a thousand years ago, when the demon god Galdella was still a player, he and his team undertook the scenario mission of 'Destroy the Great Demon.' Miaham was the first Great Demon he defeated. At that time, Galdella already had the qualifications of an administrator, but compared to him later, he was slightly inferior. So in that battle, a group of players killed Miaham, and Galdella enjoyed the fruits of victory, which paved the way for him to become a true administrator later."

The implication is that the reward for killing the great demon is extremely generous.

"Later, the Demon God became the administrator and completely conquered the entire Border Prison. The price was that most of the players in his generation died, but for the 'Corridor of the End', this was nothing."

The scholar closed the book.

"Getting back to the point, Miaham's data panel is close to that of the administrator. If she were your opponent, my advice would be to avoid a direct confrontation. You should know what the succubus's weaknesses are."

Li Nuo nodded: "Damn."

The scholar chuckled: "But that's not realistic. Even if her current data is far from her peak, it's enough to give you guys a run for your money."

At least, Li Nuo learned the most important thing: the data strength of the managers.

Data shouldn't be viewed solely from the dashboard.

For example, Dante from Devil May Cry.

His level is above 99, but his panel data is not outstanding.

Strength: 350 Reaction: 666

[Spiritual power: 220]

[Physique: 505]

[Insight: 599]

[Medical: 20~? ? ?]

However, Dante has a description that his true abilities are not reflected in the data.

When the data is high, it often reflects the true ability.

For example, Mullan.

【Strength: 120】

[Reaction: 120]

[Spiritual power: 3700]

[Physique: 400]

[Insight: 1500]

[Medical: 500]

The strength of the manager is similar to that of Mulan, but there are almost no weaknesses. Miaham's peak data is the manager data. Among the top players in the six corridors, there are also some who are close to or even on par with him.

"What exactly is this method of constructing data exceeding several thousand?"

Li Nuo asked.

"When your level exceeds 99 and you break through the level's strength, the strength of your awakening will vary depending on your memory fragments. The most talented individuals will be able to acquire even more powerful items, such as ██████..."

"Wait, I don't understand what you said after that. You said a whole bunch of █████."

"It's because your level isn't high enough; you don't have the necessary permissions to hear it."

Li Nuo suspected that the scholar was using the █ to insult him.

"However, there are two premises I can tell you. First, the data is in the thousands, which does not mean that the data intensity is that high. It may be because a passive skill has raised it to this data level. For example, the things in the comedy world have medical data of three or four thousand, but in fact, players can also raise it to this value as long as they learn the corresponding ability."

Li Nuo is the most qualified to speak on this matter; Dinisa's insight level is guaranteed to be at least 1000.

"But the premise is that these skills that can greatly improve data are often outside the World Tree, or skills that require breaking through levels to learn."

The scholar's statement shifted the focus away from the World Tree.

"As for Miaham, another suggestion I have is not to let her regain her peak strength. That woman's peak strength should be about the same as the weakest administrator."

Xiao Wu's brow twitched slightly: "Who is the weakest manager...?"

"The other side of the 'Corridor of Death'."

“That’s impossible,” Li Nuo retorted. “Our corridor’s managers must be the weakest.”

The scholar was cursed by the demon god. He was unaware of what had happened in the corridor recently. He misunderstood the judge's alteration of the timeline as the demon god tampering with his mind.

"Your corridor? Redemption... wait... Redemption Corridor, isn't that... who is your manager?"

Li Nuo: "Malger".

"Marge..."

The scholar recalled the name, and then his expression changed from doubt, shock, sudden realization, confusion, bewilderment, indifference, to finally being stunned.

"What I... I went to so much trouble to get... that weakling got it so easily?"

His values ​​were challenged.

The scholar collapsed to his knees, utterly dejected, letting out a hoarse howl, "Ah..." He then grabbed his hair and continued to howl hoarsely, "Ahhh..."

The old man next to Li Nuo asked, "Is he really that serious?"

Li Nuo gave an example: "Grandpa, imagine this: the girl you went to great lengths to marry is actually a man."

Old man: "My first love was like this..."

Then the old man also knelt on the ground and let out a hoarse howl, "Ah...".

Peters grabbed Li Nuo by the collar and demanded, "These two are so petty! You drove them crazy, what am I supposed to do now?! I have to work overtime again, you bastard! You need to give me an explanation!"

Li Nuo panicked: "I'm guilty of telling the truth!"

Shafa shouted, "Can't we get down to business?!"
