Terrible news! My deskmate's first chapter is gone!

"I have an objection!"

The author, perhaps influenced by Yang Wei, raised his hand to speak in a manner reminiscent of an elementary school student.

The desk was a ticking time bomb; just seconds before, he had instinctively written down a picture of a girl giving him a massage.

Yang Wei, watching Zi'er's hair stand on end, felt a pang of regret for not stopping Chen Xi when he was reflecting on the author.

Of course, the main reason is that the author didn't write one for him!

In my understanding...

"Having its own independent consciousness and the ability to think—that's what makes it alive!"

"If the only problem is that it can't be upgraded, then don't upgrade it!"

"I don't consider myself a dead man!"

Upon hearing this, Yan Mingliang, who was also reflected in the image, neither agreed nor disagreed, but instead asked:

"Chen Xi, so we're destined to be stuck in Stage I forever?"

This answer is very important to Yan Mingliang, after all, he has a heart that wants to become stronger.

Whether in academic fields or in the extraordinary world, Yan Mingliang possesses a certain talent and strives for it.

He was unwilling to fall behind; if he couldn't become stronger, it would be tantamount to directly denying Yan Mingliang's future.

That's practically the same as killing him.

"No, that's not it."

Chen Xi's answer relieved Yan Mingliang.

"You just can't gain experience points by killing the fake versions of me, but you can still kill the real ones outside."

"Similarly, the false figures I project cannot take away your identities."

"So complicated."

After listening to Chen Xi's explanation, Yang Wei made a comment.

"It's not that complicated. Just remember, the people I reflect cannot fulfill each other."

"This bug can't be exploited."

"But the real thing can steal your identity."

"Your essence is that of people reflected from my memories, almost indistinguishable from real people."

"You will grow old and die, you will think independently, but your lives are not complete."

"One last question, Chen Xi."

Yan Mingliang, seemingly lost in thought, looked at Chen Xi with a serious expression:

"If I died now."

"Is the 'me' you see reflected again the one who saw you off at the author's doorstep, or the one speaking to you now?"

"Unfortunately, the answer is the author's doorstep and the person I saw off at."

"so......"

"Don't die easily."

Chen Xi spoke very directly, without any tact.

This answer left everyone feeling somewhat depressed; the imagined infinite resurrection didn't seem so wonderful after all.

Even the author, who has always firmly believed that he is a living person, was somewhat shaken after hearing this answer.

It's probably easier to say now, since the time in our memories is only one day different from reality.

But what if he dies again a year or even several years later?

At this moment, everyone had the same question in their minds.

If I were resurrected like that... would I still be me?

Even if it's the same mindset, the same person, it's just that we are ourselves at different points in time.

But is that version of myself still myself?

No wonder Chen Xi kept emphasizing that you were not resurrected.

"Don't be so discouraged. I'm only at stage I of hyperthymesia right now. Maybe when I advance to stage II or III, I'll be able to take care of you at any point in time."

Chen Xi comforted her.

He didn't know if it would work, but his ability was, in a sense, very helpful in uniting people.

After all, who wouldn't love a teammate with a resurrection-like ability?

"Um."

Everyone responded at different times. Although only the author and Yan Mingliang were reflected now, who knew if they would die in the future?

We can only try to be optimistic.

"By the way, didn't your Supreme Sequence upgrade along with it?"

Everyone found this strange, but there was nothing they could do about it.

However, Chen Xi's improvement this time was enormous.

This time, it's not just about gaining the identity of a cleaner and the extraordinary talent of hyperthymesia.

The power of Chen Xi's identity as an insomniac has been fully unleashed!

As expected, this power was sealed.

Now, I don't know what's happened, but it feels like we're going to be locked down together and then lifted up together.

It is certain that the identity of a farmer and hyperthymesia do interfere with each other.

Now that everything is liberated, Chen Xi's mission has changed.

From saving fake people to killing beings who don't belong to this world.

Like rescuing the fake man, this is also a task without specific requirements.

For example, quantity, etc.

So it's quite obvious that, like the previous missions, this is a big mission.

It's the kind that can be directly upgraded to stage III.

The progress increases by one point for each non-human being killed.

Furthermore, this time the mission was issued by the identity of the Insomniac, not as before; the previous missions were issued by the Hyperthymesiac.

Following this line of thought, the Sleepless Ones are considered extraordinary beings, so their supposed existence outside this world should refer to pseudo-humans, black towers, or mysterious numbers.

But how do you kill the Black Tower?

Kill the Ta'nu?

And where is the mysterious number?

Even now, with his greatly increased strength, Chen Xi still believes he is no match for the black-haired monster he encountered in the black mist.

That leaves only one answer: a fake person!

Chen Xi's current progress is at 40% of the second stage. At this point, whether it's the cleaner or this task, it's necessary to kill a fake human to try it out.

If the fake humans truly do not belong to this world, then the mission is essentially the same as the one that saved them before.

As for using a mirror image to kill, such behavior is useless. The mission in Phase II is the same as the role-playing in Phase I; faking is not allowed!

According to the dreamer, the difficulty of the Phase II mission depends on the difficulty of upgrading one's identity in Phase I.

This difficulty can be simply represented by 100%.

If the difficulty of upgrading in stage I is 30%, then the difficulty of upgrading in stage II is 70%, and so on, the total difficulty must equal 1.

The difficulty of upgrading to Stage I is not related to the personal perception of difficulty; it is a difficulty value derived by comparing the identity itself with the era.

For example, Chen Xi's identity was that of a farmer. In that era, there were very few farmers, and it was quite difficult to become one.

Therefore, the difficulty of Chen Xi's first stage of upgrade is above average or average, so the difficulty of the second stage of the mission should be below average or average.

Chen Xi didn't know the specific gear ratio.

After all, this thing has no data; it relies on a summary of decades of ideas by a visionary.

From the current perspective, his task is indeed not difficult.

It's at least much simpler than what a dreamer does.

After all, it's an upgrade from II to III, so even if it's simple, it can't be that simple.

Thinking of this, Chen Xi immediately thought of Yang Wei.

"By the way, what is your mission?"

"The difficulty level shouldn't be too high, right?"
