Simultaneous Travel: Becoming a Legend in the Heavens.

Chapter 169 Story Editing Machine

[Due to the side effects of the "Inequality Lipstick", the head of the security department, Kelly Hopson, will be out of control to a certain extent in the next few days. Using the seal will lead to consequences and risks. This is an inevitable iron law.]

[The specific manifestations of losing control are emotional instability, love-brainedness, and double standards. Since these emotions come from the influence of a higher level, the seal item three-11 "Ring of Tranquility" she wears cannot be immune. 】

[Therefore, she showed some bias in her work, paying more attention to the child of destiny, Wang Lang, and neglecting her previously favored subordinate Xue Pengkai, and began to consider handing over the management rights of Derivative No. 3. ]

[Not only because Wang Lang is also Chinese and is also suitable for managing Derivative No. 3, but also so that he can successfully be promoted to Level 4 staff after successfully controlling Derivative No. 3 and obtain the qualification to contact Level 0 Seal.]

【Everything is for the "ultimate engraving". 】

[In order to find out the reason why his father was imprisoned, Wang Lang became very interested in Derivative No. 3 and took the initiative to ask for the management rights of Derivative No. 3.]

[Kelly, who had originally planned this, called Xue Pengkai to hand over the work. At this time, Wang Lang saw the test drawings that Kelly had placed on the table. Kelly took the opportunity to test whether he had resistance to the weakened Zero-7-1 memetic contamination.]

[This child of destiny, who is favored by the world, is immune to mental pollution and has a very high level of information depth. Whether it is the "inequality lipstick" that can distort common sense, the "Pandora's Box" that arouses human curiosity and releases disasters, or the "nameless portrait" that will make people addicted to the portrait, none of them have any effect on him.]

[The "emotion processing machine" that can override emotions, the "Book of the Dead" that will make people lose their minds after reading it, the "Kabadon Tree" that makes people want to kill, all the seals that can affect the mind are ineffective against him. ]

[The same is true for the weakened derivative No. 1 memetic contamination.]

[Coincidentally, Xue Pengkai heard the results of Kelly's mental test on Wang Lang. He passed the test that he failed.]

[The sudden change caused Xue Pengkai to feel greatly shaken, especially when he heard that the level zero derivatives that he was supposed to be responsible for were handed over to a newcomer who had just arrived three days ago. This emotion was amplified again.]

[This world has always been a place where the fittest survive. People are born to compete with others. Xue Pengkai has always been a winner, but now he has finally tasted the bitter fruit of being a loser.]

Lu Ke slowly withdrew his hand, stopped adjusting the cause and effect line, and rubbed his eyebrows tiredly.

For him now, adjusting cause and effect to a path that is beneficial to him is a bit like forcibly using advanced skills, which consumes a lot of energy.

“Plucking the strings of cause and effect, playing the song of destiny.”

This is the ability that Marvel Luke gained through sharing after Loki taught it to him.

Currently, the scope and amplitude of adjustments are limited. We can only use some existing hidden dangers, arrange some coincidences that may really happen, and make some inducements. The arrangement must be reasonable and well-founded.

It is still a long way from the God of Stories who can do whatever he says.

But according to Loki, this is the true meaning of the story. It is indeed convenient to forcibly distort reality, but only wonderful coincidences can create a wonderful story.

“But I’m a pragmatist.”

Lu Ke shook his head and closed his eyes. After resting for a while and recovering his strength, he focused his eyes and stretched out his hand again, following the traces of the last time he interfered with the fate of the protagonist.

Don't put all your eggs in one basket. He needs more insurance instead of just relying on one person's jealousy.

……

In a remote mountain village in Florida, a tall white tower stands in the center of the village.

Four masked men sat at a round table. Each of them had a different mask on his face, representing "joy", "anger", "sorrow" and "fear" respectively.

"Have you found the colleague who caused trouble last time?"

"Angry" slammed the table, his anger rising, "This is a huge shame. The script of the story editing department was changed. I can't even remember the last time this happened."

"How stupid! The last time this happened was of course last time."

"Xi" clapped his hands with a smile, "Isn't this great? I'm so bored of always following the script. It's rare that something can break out of the story. I suggest that everyone celebrate. How about having a party? I'll use the 'forbidden meat' to turn into a girl for everyone to enjoy?"

"Brother Xizi, stop joking. Last time, I finally mustered up the courage to go on a date to end my virginity, and you played with me right after that. I still haven't recovered from it."

Ai sighed, "Seriously, I used the Witch's Crystal Ball to divine, but I didn't find any information. It seems that the person who made the move doesn't exist in this world."

The timid "Fear" raised his paw, "I also tried to use the 'Encyclopedia', but couldn't find the answer."

"After all, there are many sealed objects drifting from other worlds. If the encyclopedia can't find the answer, maybe only the Tree of Wisdom can find something, but that thing is in the hands of the Future Fund."

Xi thought for a moment, "I remember that Xiaonu was in charge of most of the script this time. Xiaonu, who is the final boss in our script?"

"The old data in the 'Ultimate Inscription', when it is released, if it cannot be destroyed within the specified time, the old data will grow into the God of Data, the information flow of the entire world will be tampered with, most of the sealing measures will become invalid, and the largest sealed object out-of-control incident in history will occur."

"Ai" sighed when he heard this, "You guys are really playing with flowers, aren't you afraid of death at all?"

“Fear” raised his hands frantically, “I’m scared, I’m scared, Sister Ai! Please try to persuade them, they’ve gone crazy writing scripts!”

Xi sneered, "Come on, she's the one who writes the craziest scripts. Last time, she actually made Derivative No. 2 Star Devourer fall in love with a woman, and then the man and the beast went on a space trip. It was a really amazing script. She wasted all the ink she had saved for decades."

"This is great love!" "Come on, why don't you try to fall in love with a cell yourself, instead of relying on the story editing machine to tamper with the mind? We can't just change the ink we saved this time, so be careful."

Ai was not convinced. "I did finish the story and saved the Earth. If Wang Lang makes a mistake in the script written by Nuge, the God of Data and the rampaging story editor will kill the Earth."

"That won't happen. The Earth's vitality is still very strong."

Xi thought for a moment and said, "But the old data is indeed not suitable for the final boss. It is dangerous in itself. If it causes the sealed objects around the world to get out of control, it will be even more serious. Xiaonu, please change it."

Nu snorted, “If I had known you would say that, I would have prepared a backup plan.”

"which one?"

"Derivative No. 1!"

"Fuck, isn't it the same? The moment that thing lands, the Earth will be gone!"

"Afraid of death? Why write a novel if you're afraid of death? You might as well go home and sell sweet potatoes."

Nu spread his hands and said, "I have no choice. There are only two who are related to Wang Lang and qualified to be the final boss. The next level either has insufficient relevance or is not qualified."

Level 0 Sealed Artifact, Story Editing Machine

Description 1: This is an old-style inkjet typewriter. It looks worn out over the years, and there is an Arabic numeral "2" engraved on the body.

Description 2: The typewriter needs to finish writing a story every eighteen years. If the story is not started within the specified time, the number on the typewriter will be reduced by one.

Description three: The typewriter will record everything that happens around the protagonist. Ink can be consumed to modify the plot, and the modified plot will become reality. The more unrealistic the plot is, the more ink will be consumed. Everything is pending before the period is reached.

Description 4: The protagonist of the story needs to have an unknown background, a helping golden finger, bizarre experiences, etc. The final boss needs to be related to the protagonist, be powerful, and stand on the opposite side of humanity.

Additional note: The condition for completing the story is that the crisis is resolved, and the final boss is in a state of being sealed, expelled, exiled, etc.

Description 5: The story ends, but the incident is not resolved. The color of the typewriter will turn red, and it will enter rampage mode, and the boss will be strengthened. At this time, the typewriter cannot be stopped by manual intervention, and can only wait until all the ink in the typewriter is exhausted.

Description 5: Warning! Warning! Please do not let the number on the typewriter body return to zero.

"Think about it carefully. The Future Foundation has the most sealed objects among the major organizations. There must be someone suitable to be the boss."

"Xi" walked to the typewriter, browsed the contents in the typewriter, and touched his chin.

The typewriter faithfully recorded the development of the story, including Wang Lang's application, Kelly's test, Xue Pengkai's jealousy...

He accidentally noticed a certain word among them.

"What do you think of Derivative No. 3?"

"That level zero derivative? The data shows that he has been imprisoned and has never displayed any special properties."

"The thing that comes out of the Doomsday Horn must have the power to destroy the world. There is no doubt about that."

After a moment of silence, Xi's eyes lit up: "He is hiding his weakness and waiting for an opportunity, a chance to escape!"

Ai hesitated for a moment, "Then, what if it doesn't meet the boss's evaluation criteria?"

"Let's try to get him out of trouble first. If he's qualified to be the boss, we'll make him the boss. If not, there's the Ultimate Inscription as a backup."

"alright."

"Ai" sighed and took out a crystal ball, which reflected a blurry hotel suite and a thin, young face.

"It's a human-shaped sealed derivative. What a poor child. He's so young and hasn't even had a romantic relationship yet, but he's already been used as a tool by Xige'er."

"Don't be too sympathetic. Is he related to you?"

"Of course there is none. It was all caused by the trumpet of doom. Derivative No. 2 is also the second brother of this kid. The protagonist of my novel is together with Derivative No. 2. Shouldn't he call me aunt?"

"I've never heard of this kind of thing called making friends. You should just get back to work!"

……

"A tool?"

Lu Ke realized that the peeping had disappeared, put down the book, and smiled, "Not bad, then let's use each other."
