Chapter 517 We can't just focus on tactics
"In short, after considering everything, Sanqing and I agreed that we should try to avoid the romantic storylines arranged by the plot, and there's also the matter of a fateful turning point..."
Ye Yifan quickly explained these concepts and the purpose of using a large-scale game to correct the subconscious.
"I see. I understand now. It's a good thing she's not love-struck..."
At this moment, Ye Jin'er sensed Ye Sanqing's most special quality.
Although the men arranged in these plots are probably not suitable, the fact that she can seal her heart and lock away love is quite special in itself; she is definitely not a player.
Where can I find players who enter dating games but don't actually fall in love?
"What are you talking about? Neither you nor I are, is that so special?"
"It might not be special otherwise, but it's quite special in the world of dating sims... By the way, why do I feel like this world isn't so love-obsessed?"
If we're talking about the world of dating sims, it's practically a place where you stumble and hug every three steps, blush and your heart race every five steps, and the main theme is a world filled with pink bubbles.
The world seems alright for now... although sometimes inexplicable scandals emerge, they are still within the realm of human comprehension.
"Because...after many cycles, the world itself has begun to mutate? This is also a speculation."
That makes sense, since if everyone only had love on their mind, the world would easily collapse. The author probably set the lowest possible balance during the initial game design phase.
For example, there needs to be basic, normal people to keep the world running, etc...
However, if it restarts many times, it should automatically fix the previous bugs each time it restarts, so over time it becomes a world that is relatively normal, but the protagonist and important characters are still bound by the plot.
"A lot of it is speculation..."
"Yes, we don't have concrete data to support that. But the sky will get dark, and that's why humans invented fire."
Ye Yifan said something that sounded somewhat like a riddle, which was rare for him.
But the meaning is not hard to understand: even if you're groping in the dark, you still have to keep going, because fire and other things will eventually be invented.
In other words, we can only learn by doing and by observing as we go.
Otherwise, if we gave up our activities as soon as it got dark, we wouldn't be the humans we are today.
"So a change in fate can make the world more real, right? Although there's no evidence."
"Logically speaking, yes, the most direct example is Cheng Yanye. His relationship with Ye Wanyin broke down before, and his data stream was even leaking out of him, but after they made contact on the wedding day, things stabilized again."
"Oh my god, no wonder he was acting so strange that day. I thought he was normal for two days and then started acting crazy again... Sigh, I have mixed feelings right now. I could have just treated them like idiots, but now that I know they're just bots, I feel a little sorry for them."
"Actually, it's best to just keep a normal mindset, regardless of whether it's a human or a machine..."
What Ye Yifan didn't say was, "My dear brother, you're still a bot too."
wrong.
If Ye Jin'er hasn't changed yet, it means that he's someone who can survive normally without changing.
Is this possibility still possible?
Ye Yifan quickly mentioned this possibility, and added, "So it's not about pursuing a complete change. If you're a normal person to begin with, you might always stay a normal person, and that's fine too."
"Am I a normal person?"
Ye Jin'er said speechlessly, "I feel a little disappointed for some reason."
"This is a good thing, what are you disappointed about? You can be yourself from beginning to end, what's wrong with that?"
"But am I really myself...?"
Or is this just a character design created by the author to give the protagonist a handsome, sarcastic, e-sports pro brother?
"It's pointless for you to think about these existential questions now. Since it exists, it simply exists."
"I get dizzy just hearing about philosophy. I know, I won't think too much about it. But what about Xiao Sheng? Sanqing only said that he might be a special character."
"What's special isn't him, what's special is his father..."
Ye Yifan omitted the part about being reborn and instead talked about the unusual events that had happened to Sheng Luoxin.
"So we suspect he might have gotten stuck in a bug, resulting in a special state..."
"He is definitely unselectable!"
Ye Jin'er exclaimed in surprise.
He could instantly understand the speculation about the game's predecessor, but Sheng Hanyu's existence was indeed special upon hearing this.
"It's a real shame he's not a villain..."
"Hey."
Ye Yifan tossed him a cigar. "You think this survival mode isn't difficult enough? Not being able to save is hardcore enough. Do you want to play honor mode? The villains are like bugs. I think we should all restart."
"It's alright, it's not like it's the end of the world, it's a peaceful modern society, and our living conditions and economic situation are pretty good, it's not like the world is falling apart."
"Which author would write a post-apocalyptic romance game? Who would even buy it?!"
Ye Yifan shook his head after speaking, "It's hard to say, people's tastes these days..."
Ye Jin'er shook her head in unison as she thought of the so-called targets of her affections.
"If I played this game, I would definitely give it a bad review."
"Men are not allowed to play female-oriented dating games."
"No, I was just venting... Of course I don't know how to play, but now that you mention it, Xiao Sheng is indeed special. Is it because of his bug-like constitution that the Three Pure Ones treat him so specially?"
"...So you're not stupid after all. I thought you only had two-dimensional characters on your mind. That's one part, but the two of them do get along well."
Ye Yifan thought to himself, "You didn't realize it, but I really think they're a little too in sync."
But this matter did not affect their main objective; it might even have been a positive development.
She thought this way out of selfish motives, and of course she wouldn't suggest to Ye Sanqing that they develop a romantic relationship.
Otherwise, she should have intervened that day.
She believed that Ye Sanqing, the "player," was capable of managing his relationship with the "unselectable character."
"Fine, I'll go along with you guys anyway? I'm actually starting to find this interesting."
It has to be said that Ye Jin'er is truly someone who enjoys adventure and excitement.
He was already bored after retiring, and the only fun he had was running an entertainment company; otherwise, he would have gone out to find something new to do long ago.
But he'd be bored if he didn't retire; being at the top is such a lonely thing.
Perfect, now my whole life has become a challenge.
How interesting!
"It may be interesting, but things still need to be done. For example, you need to clean up Xingxuan's matter."
"Is this also part of the strategy? I admire you. It seems I still have a lot to learn."
"I told you we can't just focus on tactics..."
Since the topic had come up, the two decided to discuss the arrangements for the rest of Xingxuan's people who had not committed any crimes.
