Host, I’m Here To Accompany You To Pretend

Ye Chen and Yan Xuyang hurriedly stopped Zhang Jie with confusion in their eyes.

This...this isn't right.

Are the Celestials and East America so good?

He was actually on equal footing with the Devils.

And what's the situation with the Donghai team? In the original work, wasn't it just a cannon fodder team? Why did it suddenly reach the second level? Have you cheated?

"Brother Jie, I can understand you saying that the Gods and Devils are the first tier teams. After all, they are special teams, but why can this East American team be on an equal footing with the two above?"

Zhang Jie nodded and said, "It's normal for you to think this way. The gods and demon teams are indeed special existences in the main god's space. As far as I know, these two teams currently have several fourth-level gene locks. , and the only person in the East American team who has unlocked the gene lock is the captain of the East American team, and almost all the other team members are newcomers to the main **** space, and the reason why it is able to coexist with gods and demons is also very simple."

Zhang Jie stared at Ye Chen and Yan Xuyang with unprecedented seriousness.

"Their captain is currently the number one person in the Main God Space!"

"Nani?!" x2

Isn't that the captain of the East American team Zhao Zukong?

How did he get to be the number one person in the Lord God Space!

"Brother Jie, are you mistaken?" Ye Chen couldn't help but ask.

"Of course not. The captain of the East American team is the only one in the main **** space who has reached the middle stage of the fourth level. He is of course the number one person in the main **** space!"

Zhao Zukong has reached the middle stage of the fourth level?

Doesn’t this guy have a genetic defect that will prevent him from surviving the inner demons for the rest of his life?

Damn it! Something is wrong!

Chapter 961: It’s just the fantasy of a vegetative person

Zhao Zukong is the first person in the main **** space, and he is also the only mid-level fourth-level person at present? And the Gods team, like the Demon team, has several beings who have unlocked the fourth level of the gene lock?

Yan Xuyang and Ye Chen were shocked after hearing this. Is this really an infinitely terrifying plot?

The Celestial Team in the original book should still be wasting their years in the second and third levels at this time, why did several people of the fourth level suddenly jump out!

In the original book, during the Lord of the Rings era, only Song Tian in the Celestial Team had reached the fourth level of Gene Lock!

Luo Yinglong, an expert in both gene locks and cultivation, only possesses fourth-level combat power. This is completely different from truly unlocking the fourth-level gene lock!

Zhang Jie's explosive revelations made Ye Chen and Yan Xuyang confused. Their brains were running out of energy.

After a while, Yan Xuyang took a deep breath and said reluctantly: "We already know the situation of the Devil, God and the East American team, but what about the East China Sea team?"

They should take this opportunity to learn more about other teams. There is no such special person as Zhang Jie in other teams. If they miss this opportunity, they will have to wait for team battles if they want to know more about other teams.

"East China Sea Team, well... they can be said to be the strongest team under the gods and demons. In the main **** space, the degree of gene lock development is an important factor in determining the strength of a team. Although no one in the East China Sea Team has reached the level of gene lock They are locked to the fourth level, but there are several people among them who have unlocked the third level gene lock, and their strength is obviously higher than other teams in the main **** space."

Speaking of Zhang Jie looked at Ye Chen and Yan Xuyang with complicated expressions.

"Although the Donghai team has several people who are genetically locked to the third level, in terms of hard power, I think the Zhongzhou team with you and Zheng Zha will not be much weaker than them. However, the main god's attitude towards the Zhongzhou team is very strange. , as if you are selectively blind and don’t consider the fighting power of the two of you at all.”

this…

Ye Chen and Yan Xuyang glanced at each other. They knew that their cultivation system was somewhat incompatible with this world, but this was the first time they had heard of the special care given by the Lord God.

"Then do you know who has unlocked the fourth-level gene lock so far?"

Zhang Jie shook his head: "What I know is only how many people have unlocked the fourth-level gene lock and which teams they belong to. As for who these people are, I don't know."

Well, it seems that what Brother Jie knows is very limited, but this information has given them a lot of help, at least letting them know that those teams in the main **** space are cheating.

"Okay, having said so much, it's time to talk about my true identity. In the main **** space, the main **** will not let the newcomers in the main **** space directly face danger. In order to give them a chance to survive, they will set up a The leader blends into the newcomers. When someone appears among the newcomers who is qualified to hold the position of captain, the leader will give him a trial. After the person passes the trial, the leader will give him the position of captain and increase his gene lock by one. I am the leader of the Central Continent Team, but at the same time I am also the true captain of the Central Continent Team.”

At this point, Zhang Jie showed a self-deprecating smile.

"It's strange, isn't it? Why the leader can become the captain of the Central Continent team? The reason is very simple because I was originally a reincarnation in the main **** space like you. I unlocked the gene in the horror movie A Nightmare on Elm Street. Lock, because I was the first person in the Central Continent team to unlock the gene lock, so the Lord God tested me. After passing the test, I became the captain of the Central Continent team. Next, as long as I merge with the leader, I can directly end the horror movie return. I went to the Lord God Space, but unfortunately I failed.”

"A Nightmare on Elm Street is a very special horror movie. The BOSS in it can not only invade dreams but also enter reality. When I was halfway through the fusion, it came to reality from my dreams and killed my body, so I He became a half-guide and half-reincarnator."

Zhang Jie took out a cigarette from his arms, lit it, and took a long drag.

"Like you, I can strengthen myself through bonus points and side plots, and because of the characteristics of the guide, all the items I strengthen can exert 100% power. Because of my problem, the difficulty of the horror movie experienced by the Zhongzhou team has begun to increase. , the most difficult ghost horror film like The Grudge appeared in the newcomer’s third reincarnation world, which is simply unimaginable for other teams.”

"I think you were brought into the main god's space by the main **** in order to check and balance me."

Only this point can be directly denied by Ye Chen and Yan Xuyang. The main **** pulled them into the main god's space not because they wanted to check and balance Zhang Jie but because it went crazy!

"After you entered the Central Continent team, the growth of the Central Continent team began to increase at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the main **** was constantly urging me to select a captain. After the end of the Legend of Gods and Ghosts, it finally gave me an ultimatum, asking me to be the next captain. Select the captain of the Central-Continent team from a horror movie, and you know the next thing.”

"really."

Yan Xuyang and Ye Chen nodded calmly. Compared with the previous information, this revelation

Zhang Jie was stunned by the indifferent attitude of the two people. This was completely different from what he had expected at the beginning.

"Aren't you at all surprised by this truth?"

"Should we be surprised?"

"Shouldn't it be?"

The three of them stared at each other for a while, and then Ye Chen broke the silence.

"Ahem...Brother Jie, logically we should be surprised, but..."

"Just what?"

"Is the truth you know necessarily the truth?"

Zhang Jie was stunned: "What do you mean by this?"

Ye Chen sighed: "Brother Jie, sometimes the truth is more than what appears on the surface. Have you ever noticed the illusion reflected in the moon in the water, and the untouched reality hanging in the dome?"

What are you talking about?

Ye Chen, the riddle man, confuses Zhang Jie with his tenth-level speech.

"Brother Chen, what exactly do you want to say?"

"Alas." Yan Xuyang sighed: "Brother Jie, you really can't blame Lao Yang for this. If you say he's big, he's not particularly big, but if you say he's small, he's not very small either."

"..." Zhang Jie said after a long silence: "Can we speak human language?"

"this…"

Yan Xuyang glanced at Ye Chen, who looked confused and hesitated for a long time before nodding.

"Okay, since you nodded, I won't pretend anymore. Brother Jie, do you think there is a possibility? Of course, I am just saying one possibility."

"What's possible?"

"In fact, there is no main **** space at all, everything is just the fantasy of a vegetative person!"

Chapter 962: Fake! It’s all fake!

A vegetative fantasy?

Zhang Jie couldn't help but think of the topics that Ye Chen and Yan Xuyang had discussed privately during this period. If Yan Xuyang and the others were telling the truth, there seemed to be a reasonable explanation for these unclear conversations...

No, that's not right!

What on earth was I thinking!

Is the main **** space a vegetative fantasy? How could I have such a ridiculous idea!

Zhang Jie shook his head fiercely: "Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"

"Really? Why do you dare to be so sure?" Yan Xuyang asked.

"Needless to say, the pain I experienced is still vivid in my mind!" Zhang Jie reached out and touched the scar on his face: "Do you know where this scar came from? This is what I was injured in A Nightmare on Elm Street. It was left when Freddy tortured me! If this is all an illusion, how can you explain this scar and the pain I experienced!"

Ye Chen and Yan Xuyang looked at each other and said slowly: "Brother Jie, before I answer this question, I want to ask you a question first."

"what is the problem?"

"Do you think people can feel pain while dreaming?"

Zhang Jie was stunned for a moment and then replied decisively: "Of course not!"

"you sure?"

"Isn't this nonsense? You already said you were dreaming. How could you feel pain in a dream?"

"Really, in that case, what was your previous experience in A Nightmare on Elm Street?"

"this…"

"I've seen the horror movie A Nightmare on Elm Street. The story structure is very simple. It's about a murderer who acquires the power of a dream demon and keeps dragging people into their dreams to torture and kill them. Brother Jie, you have experienced this horror movie. I Let me ask you, did you feel the same pain in the dream in that horror movie as in reality?"

"..." Zhang Jie was silent for a while and then reluctantly said: "Yes, I felt the pain in my dream, but all of that was Freddy's special ability!"

Marven smiled: "Brother Jie, you just said that people don't feel pain when they dream, but now you say that Freddy's ability can make people feel pain in their dreams. Don't you think this is a bit contradictory? ?"

Zhang Jie was speechless.

Seeing this, Yan Xuyang started to popularize science.

"Brother Jie, the reason why you think dreaming won't hurt is because you made a common sense mistake. Human pain is generated by the skin collecting sensory information and converting it into nerve signals and transmitting them to the brain. It is not just pain. , all sensations including hearing, vision, smell, and pleasure are produced by the brain! So physical contact is not actually the only condition for generating feelings. If there is a way to bypass the nervous system and directly stimulate the brain, even without physical contact, You can still feel pain! And dreaming is a great way to do that."

Zhang Jie's breathing became rapid.

"If everything is as you said, then why don't I feel pain in my dreams?"

Yan Xuyang shook his head and explained: "That's because your dream is not deep enough. Although people usually dream, they only enter a shallow dream state. They can still realize that they are dreaming subconsciously. As long as they are dreaming, It is easy to wake up when you find factors that are unfavorable to you, but when you enter a deep dream and even your brain cannot tell the difference between reality and dreams, then how can you be sure that everything you experience in the dream will not What about corresponding stimulation to the brain?"

Zhang Jie was silent.

In fact, what Ye Chen and Yan Xuyang said are all pseudoscience. Netizens who surf the Internet with a slightly higher intensity can immediately find a bunch of logical loopholes.

But Zhang Jie couldn't refute it. The reason was very simple. He had read few books...

This incident tells us that we need to read more books to avoid being deceived by intellectuals. Look at Brother Jie as a good counterexample!

Seeing that Zhang Jie had gone from talking nonsense to being dubious, Yan Xuyang quickly struck while the iron was hot.

"Brother Jie, have you ever heard of the brain-in-a-vat hypothesis?"

Zhang Jie scratched his head: "What is that?"

"Brain in a vat" is a hypothesis proposed by Hilary Putnam in her book. It assumes that an evil scientist performed a surgery on a person, removed his brain from his body and put it in a culture vat, and then put his brain in a culture vat. The nerves of his brain are connected to the computer, and the computer transmits information to the brain to simulate all his own environment. In this place, he can eat, drink, sleep, and perform all necessary life activities for human beings. He can even get married and have children. Then I I want to ask you."

Yan Xuyang stared at Zhang Jie and tortured his soul.

"How do you know you're not the brain in the vat?"

A chill ran up his spine, and Zhang Jie's body couldn't stop trembling. He looked up at the ceiling of the building, and everything seemed unreal.

Are you a brain in a vat?

Is everything I have experienced just a program designed by others?

"No! I don't believe it! It's fake! It's all fake! I can't be a brain in a vat! Don't try to lie to me!" Zhang Jie roared with red eyes.

He couldn't accept this fact.

This is normal. Anyone who hears that his life so far has been a farce and that he is nothing more than an experimental prop may not be able to accept it.

Ye Chen nodded: "You are right. Lao Yang just gave an example. You are indeed not a brain in a vat, but a vegetative person who has been lying in bed and comatose for ten years. And now all this These are all fantasies you had while you were in a deep coma."

"Eh?"

Zhang Jie was stunned.

Ye Chen and Yan Xuyang nodded silently in their hearts.

It can be seen that Brother Jie's mood is obviously much more stable than before.

This is also normal. Compared with the extreme statement of brain in a vat, vegetative coma is obviously much easier to accept.

This is also what Ye Chen and Yan Xuyang want to achieve. If you tell Zhang Jie directly about the vegetative illusion, his reaction will be just like the initial disbelief.

But when you give the heavyweight option of brain in a vat and then bring up the topic of vegetative fantasy, he will feel that compared with brain in a vat, vegetative fantasy is not unacceptable.

Do you understand that you can laugh at fifty steps and laugh at a hundred steps? You just have to give him a contrast!

With comparison, he will feel that his originally miserable life seems to be bearable again.

To put it bluntly, it’s all a routine!

After frowning and thinking for a while, Zhang Jie said: "Brother Xu, Brother Chen, although what you said seems to make some sense, I still don't believe what you said. This is too outrageous! Why did I become a vegetative state! If you can't answer If I have doubts in my heart, then I won’t believe it.”

Ye Chen and Yan Xuyang couldn't help but smile when they heard this. The plan was successful!
