I upgraded and added points in the Holy Inquisition

Chapter 241 240. Why is it so fun?

After experiencing the butler's "Story" in a serious way, Lloyd could feel the strength of the "Story" ability more intuitively.

It seems that the great thing about the [Story] ability is that the 'plot' can be flexibly adapted. The more you try to decipher the plot, the more dangerous the plot will be.

Even if the other party realizes the problem, it will be difficult to break free directly, and maybe it will get deeper and deeper...

If you eventually die in the [story], your thinking consciousness will probably be lost forever, unless the 'author' releases the person.

The abilities used in the [Story] and the consumption produced will also be fed back to the body in the present world. If the spiritual power is exhausted or injured, the body will become weak in the present world.

The speed of its interference with thinking and consciousness may be slower than those of the [Distortion] and [Intellectual] systems, but it is very difficult for people to escape, and it will affect the body in the present world.

After Lloyd summed it up in his mind, he looked at the crowd of 'neighbors' crowding in front of his house, begging him to deal with various strange incidents; his ears kept urging him to protect the weak and help his neighbors. The little 'narration' I want to guide myself to continue to delve deeper into the 'plot'.

Fortunately, he stayed awake and did not listen to the narrator.

But Lloyd can also clearly feel that those 'narrations' are not just as simple as advancing the 'plot', but have been trying to modify his own personality, that is, interfering with and affecting his own three views and inherent cognition.

For example, right now, the narrator is trying to become a kind-hearted young man who protects the weak.

And earlier, when meeting 'Miss Desda', the narrator kept reminding himself that he must protect Miss Desda in the future, remember that she is good to him, and not have evil thoughts about her. , have any unreasonable thoughts.

I'm afraid this is not just the influence of the 'plot', but is similar to some kind of spiritual suggestion. Even if you leave the [story], it will be difficult to completely get rid of the characters in the 'plot', and you will really become a guardian of the weak in the future. A kind young man will really protect Miss Desita.

Lloyd could sense the butler's intentions, but he couldn't laugh or cry for a while.

But I have always been a righteous young man who helps the strong and the weak, and I decided very early on to protect Miss Desita, but they just can’t use me...

What's more, I am full of respect for her. I always remember the help she provided to us siblings when we were in the most difficult times, so I have never thought too much about it. There are enough girls around me...

But if the housekeeper and I are not on the same team, or even hostile, how will he affect my outlook and cognition?

In addition to this kind of interference that affects one's perspective and cognition, the NPCs in the [story] will even inquire about various privacy and little secrets of oneself.

For example, when she was getting along with 'Everol' before, she asked her inexplicably how much money she had in her bank account, what materials she still lacked before the next [Transcendence], and whether she had a girl she liked.

These questions actually had nothing to do with the plot at that time. They were asked so abruptly. It was obvious that the 'author' behind them wanted to know these things.

Fortunately, Lloyd and the housekeeper are on the same side, otherwise the question raised by 'Everol' would probably be more important and private.

It seems that [Story] is really a powerful ability, with many advantages and characteristics that other thinking interference abilities do not have.

Of course, it also has weaknesses and drawbacks, which are not entirely unsolvable.

If I could stay awake all the time, I would not have the narrator ‘modify my character’, nor would the NPC trick me out of my inner secrets.

As for these 'plots' trying to trap me...

Just use my own way to crack it!

After Lloyd made a summary, he looked at the noisy neighbors in front of him and began to kidnap himself morally.

"If my daughter's illness cannot be cured, I will hate you forever! I will also write an anonymous letter to report you!"

"If you don't help me solve this trouble, you will have to bear my losses!"

"Since you refuse to help and my house can no longer be inhabited, I will move into your house!"

"You are from the Holy Inquisition Tribunal, how can you ignore us? Why do you ignore us!"

Lloyd's fists became hardened when he heard it, and his whole body was shaking, his hands and feet were cold.

By the way, why can the butler depict such a disgusting face so clearly and realistically?

In order to respect the plot, Lloyd suppressed the nausea in his heart and said:

"Okay, okay, everyone, don't worry, I will help, but you have to do it one by one, right?"

"Life is at stake, you must treat my daughter's disease first! If my daughter dies from this, let your sister be my daughter!"

"Okay, let's go."

Lloyd replied simply.

Then a group of people rushed to the neighbor's house. A group of people gathered outside and watched coldly as Lloyd walked in alone.

According to the narrator's description, as soon as Lloyd entered the door, he knew that the neighbor's daughter had been bewitched by a strange, evil, and mysterious existence, became crazy, and began to transform into monsters.

If you want to cure her, you have to...

"In the name of veto!"

Lloyd didn't wait for the narrator to finish speaking, and directly hit it with a skill.

"Ah!!!!"    The crazy woman in the bedroom was hit so hard that her brains exploded and she died on the spot.

Then he clapped his hands, walked out, and replied to the neighbor:

"Okay, your daughter is no longer sick."

Although the neighbor did not go in to check, he seemed to have learned about his daughter's fate through other means. He was stunned on the spot, his eyes were dull, and his expression was numb.

It looks like there is a bug...

He froze in place for a while, then opened his mouth and read in a mechanical tone:

"Ah! This is so great! Thanks for your help, Lloyd, you will always be my best friend."

He just knew that his daughter was indeed not sick, and he had fulfilled his request to Lloyd, so the part of the 'plot' he was responsible for would be over, but he ignored the fact that his daughter was also dead.

Do you think he thanked me?

Lloyd felt dumbfounded.

Obviously, no matter how realistic and realistic the butler portrays these NPCs, it is impossible to take every NPC's way of thinking and behavior into consideration, and it is impossible to make every NPC look like a real person.

What's more, there is still a change in the 'plot'...

So there was this hilarious result.

And as this plot was deciphered by Lloyd in this tricky way, he once again felt the flickering and blurring of the surrounding space, indicating that the power of the 'plot' was once again weakened.

But this impact is obviously much smaller and milder than the previous one.

In the previous plot, he forcibly killed an invincible enemy in a scene where he should have fled, completely changing the plot direction.

In this plot, he followed the plot and ran to treat his neighbor's daughter, but the method he used was completely unreasonable. This was a loophole in the 'plot', and he just found it. Come out, rather than violent change, so it did not cause a backlash in the 'plot'.

Obviously, the second way of coping is the normal process, and it is also the method that the butler taught Lloyd before.

It's not very efficient, but it's fun?

So Lloyd said to another neighbor:

"Okay, now it's time to solve your problem."

The other party was a calculating young woman, and she quickly replied:

"Well! Let's go quickly. I have to help convince my fiancé to let him put my name on his family's property and land."

"Okay, let me show you my speaking skills."

As Lloyd said, he led a large group of neighbors and ran to the home of a powerful family in the town.

The narration in his ear began to describe to him how powerful this family was. Even 'Miss Desda' respected him, and how powerful the high-ranking person in the family was, and he was ready to fight with this woman. How is the married young son so much loved?

But this woman didn't love the landlord's youngest son at all, and just planned to defraud others of their property through marriage.

But if she doesn't agree to her request, she will whisper in the ears of many lovers, making her socially dead in this small town and unable to survive.

In short, if Lloyd helped this, he would definitely be retaliated by the powerful, and most likely he would be hunted down by other people's high-ranking people.

But if he doesn't agree, he will be forced to leave the town. Once he leaves Arkham Town, which is full of talented people and powerful people, the mysterious existence that just harmed other people's daughters will focus on him, because he has just cured the disease. He cured his daughter's illness, but ruined His good deeds...

Anyway, there are high-ranking powerful men on one side and mysterious beings on the other, who just want to push Lloyd to death.

Fortunately, Lloyd has already thought of a reasonable countermeasure...

He took the girl into the landlord's mansion, and chatted with the young son for a while, explaining the interests to him.

In the end, the younger son added his fiancée's name on the land deed and the land deed with a dull look on his face.

The fiancée also looked dull and signed her name on a piece of special terms.

It was promised that after the two get married, he must remain loyal, love his younger son wholeheartedly, take care of everything in the family, and promise to give birth to a hundred heirs for his younger son.

If you can't do it, you won't be able to get any land or real estate.

The goal was achieved, but it seems that it was not completely achieved?

As soon as the two parties signed the things, Lloyd felt that the world around him began to blur again, and the power of the 'plot' was weakened again.
