Chapter 193 The Overlord Insists on Using Me as Bai Yueguang’s Stand-in (81)
"0937?" Ni Fang asked.
"Your number, there are countless taskers here." it said.
"So what's your number? Or who are you?"
"I am the administrator of Tianming Bookstore, the only administrator."
"A...bug?"
"You can believe what you see, or you can not believe it."
"You mean, the way I see you is based on my imagination of you?"
"You are very smart. The ant in the eyes of humans is the whole picture of the ant, but the human in the eyes of the ant is only a part of the human, or even just a piece of color of the human. We are not in the same dimension. What you see of me is just your imagination."
Ni Fang suddenly felt a sense of powerlessness, like a tiny person facing a huge monster. She couldn't even see who the manager of Tianming Bookstore was.
But she still didn't want to give up.
"Where are you from? Or why were you born?" she asked again.
"We have limited time to chat. Are you sure you want to dwell on this kind of issue?"
"Yes." Ni Fang said briefly.
"I came from the unknown, was born in a book, and am what you humans want to have throughout your life - wisdom."
Ni Fang suddenly thought of the allegory of the cave that Plato made two thousand years ago to prove the rationality of the existence of the philosopher king.
He imagined a group of prisoners in chains in a cave, with a fire behind them. The shadow of the fire shone on the wall, and they could only see the shadow in front of them. Until one prisoner broke free and saw the fire and objects behind him, he would feel dizzy at first, but he would walk out of the cave with his own efforts and see the world outside the cave.
The only prophet will realize that the world outside the cave is the real world. They have only lived in the cave before, and mistakenly thought that the shadows cast by the firelight are real. So he returns to the cave and tells everyone, but everyone thinks he is talking nonsense.
Ni Fang himself had just walked out of the cave.
But her body was dead and she couldn't even return to the cave.
"You're not from the future?"
"I am from both the future and the past."
"I do not understand."
“People never understand what they don’t know.”
Ni Fang had no choice but to change the subject, "You have mastered all the books from ancient times to the present?"
"Yes, I am very happy to see a tasker like you who has the ability to think independently and make independent behavioral choices. I heard that you want to replace the male protagonist in the book. I have agreed. Why did you come to see me?"
"Because I want Lu Wenyu to be able to enter a story of his own after his death. Mingming once said, 'I am a consciousness.' Lu Wenyu is also a consciousness like me. He can create his own story."
"Creation? In Tianming Bookstore, no one can create. Lu Wenyu can become a new tasker, but he cannot create a new story."
"Because there is no author?"
"Yes, without an author creating a new story, even if the protagonist has self-awareness, it cannot form a story."
"What if I have a way? Mingming once told me that as a tasker, I have to complete tasks in one piece of literature about women being tortured, until finally, you will give me a chance to join Tianming Bookstore. Theoretically speaking, as long as I find enough awakened characters in novels, I can create a new story."
Ni Fang’s idea was simple. If she couldn’t go back to the cave, she would create one.
"This is very interesting. Tianming Bookstore has never collected such a story. After Lu Wenyu dies, I can help you temporarily take charge of his consciousness. However, there are only a few characters like Lu Wenyu who have awakened. For you, you need to complete countless tasks. As for the characters in the story, they will not trust you, and may even kill you like they killed Socrates. You do so much? What is it for?"
Ever since stepping into Tianming Bookstore, Ni Fang has been beaten by this white bug. It feels really bad. Now there is finally something that the administrator doesn't know.
"Because I'm unwilling to accept it. I think that after I finish this, I can also go to this story and truly die in this story."
"By then, there will be no system to help you, and you won't be able to see how the story will develop in advance. You will no longer be the protagonist of the story, and you will no longer be carrying the destiny. You have to think clearly."
"After all, it's just the word unknown. You are the unknown, why should I be afraid of you?"
The wind suddenly blew up, and the strong wind blew up the pages of the book.
Ni Fang couldn't help but close his eyes, and darkness appeared in front of him again.
It was as if she had never been to Tianming Bookstore.
She returned to the study, still with the company report she had just read in front of her.
Mingming's voice sounded in my ears, "Host, based on your previous performance, the administrator has changed the task to achieve the popular Mary Sue ending. As long as you can get 9999 points, it will be considered completed. Since Ye Haotian is no longer the male protagonist of the story, and Xin Yuan is no longer the male supporting role of the story, their love points will no longer have additional bonuses."
"If I convert 9999 points, how many people would like it to achieve this?"
“At least 10 million people have to like it.”
"What kind of treatment is this for the world's top female celebrities?"
"In fact, with your current status, it will only take three to five years for you to gain the love of ten million people."
"Gou Gou, I suddenly realized that I like you more than the administrator."
"Why?" Mingming's voice rose, sounding a little excited.
"Because you're cute when you're stupid."
Ni Fang could not forget the feeling she had at Tianming Bookstore. When facing the administrator, she felt a chill all over her body.
After more than a month, Ni Fang reopened his personal panel.
[Name: Ni Fang]
【Age: 18】
【Appearance: Natural beauty】
【Fame: Well-known】
【Height: 165cm】
[Weight: 45kg]
【Points: 1014】
【Evaluation: New actor, entrepreneur】
Thanks to a live broadcast that made a sensation across the country and more and more people registering for Ultrasurf, Nifan's system points almost increased tenfold compared to before.
Changes in system integrals occur almost every once in a while.
It seems that, as Mingming said, it will only take three to five years to complete the task.
But Ni Fang cannot take it lightly. As a public figure, every move will be magnified, and it is too easy to be liked or hated.
The success of Ultrasurf has attracted the attention of Internet-related companies. Due to the favor of the Ye Group, they will not engage in open commercial war. However, the Ye Group is about to collapse, and Ni Fang must make the entire company grow as quickly as possible.
What's more, she also needs to use system points to exchange props to cure Lu Wenyu's illness.
Difficult.
