Original God, but the real world

Chapter 191 190-Your Story
Strictly speaking, predicting the future is very similar to what Jiang Qing showed.

The discordant parts were exposed by Jiang Qing on his own initiative.

If he didn't say it out loud, even if Ying had a lot of imagination, it would still take a long time to figure out the truth.

After he revealed it, Ying also grasped the unreasonable aspects and realized the truth.

This is not about predicting the future, but about standing in her perspective and seeing what she has experienced and is about to experience.

But considering that Jiang Qing knows more than her and the problem of limited time always exists, Jiang Qing must have some additional knowledge to supplement.

Either he has other information cards, or he has more time than me and can explore more things.

Just like the main storyline of Dragon Quest is definitely the hero and the dragon, but when people watch it, there is not only the hero's perspective, but also the auxiliary perspectives of the dragon, the sage, and the witch.

The narrator can even change the subject and directly talk about the story of gods thousands of years ago, highlighting the background of the story.

The hero will not come into direct contact with these things, he only needs to know Dragon Quest, but people who read the story can get additional information and have a better understanding of the direction of the story.

Similar things do not necessarily have to be light novels. Ying just confirmed that Jiang Qing saw a story with himself as the main perspective, and he also had other information to add.

After the speculation was confirmed, many of Ying's questions were answered.

For example, why Jiang Qing always has a high degree of overlap with her adventure path.

She was in Mondstadt, and Jiang Qing took Beidou's ship and headed straight to Mondstadt.

She was in Liyue, and Jiang Qing happened to be back home.

When she went to Inazuma, they were all in the same boat.

Jiang Qing used his own adventures as the main line to fish in troubled waters, and he succeeded repeatedly because he had seen the development and direction of the story.

He knows what he knows, and he also knows what he doesn't know, because he has information supplemented by means other than adventure, such as [narration], [astrologer's prediction] and the like.

"Shouldn't you tell me this?" Ying was a little distressed.

She scratched the side of her face with a strange look on her face. "I won't doubt my own existence because of this, nor will I think that I am an immortal hero who is destined to win, and then go crazy and commit suicide..."

"But this kind of thing shouldn't be something you can just say casually, right?"

I would have known better than to guess.

"You really don't think of yourself as the center of the world?" Jiang Qing smiled narrowly.

Ying turned on her toes slightly, feeling a little embarrassed.

Of course there is.

The moment Jiang Qing admitted it, Ying guessed that she might be the protagonist of a story.

Well, in most heroic stories, the heroes complete their journey successfully, and although they experience various dangers, they are always immortal, right?

Some of the dark and cruel stories are gone!

So, if I were a hero, I would be the protagonist of the world, I would get the best of everything in the world, then defeat the worst dragon and enjoy the favor of fate, right?
For a moment, Ying thought so.

But she soon realized something.

Maybe the original story is really like this.

But this definitely does not include the appearance of Jiang Qing.

His appearance means that there is no immortal protagonist in this world, at least Ying will not be that protagonist.

Moreover, if it was a dark and cruel story, for example, the hero was killed by the dragon in the end, or the hero's friends were crushed by the dragon, and the hero himself was paralyzed and barely won, these were all things that Ying could not accept.

The story is about fun, not logic, and it doesn't necessarily mean the brave will win.

Light and justice may not necessarily prevail, because some people succumb to reality and some people like dark stories.

Is she going to bet her brother's life, her own life, on this being a beautiful story?

Ying shook her head and rejected this speculation.

No.

You can try your own life, and you can also throw the lives of strangers on the gambling table, but if it involves your brother, or friends you met during the travels, using their lives as chips is not okay.

"It's a game." Jiang Qing said seriously, "It's like an adventure game. Your equipment is constantly upgraded, and your friends are getting stronger. Then your enemies are also constantly updating their equipment, becoming stronger, and continue to cause trouble for you."

"So, I'm one of the fighting bugs you control?"

Ying tilted her head.

"To be more precise, you won't be in my team at all." Jiang Qing answered the question honestly, "In the game, you can only use the power of a single element. You are ridiculously bad."

Ying puffed up her cheeks, put her hands on her hips, and stared at Jiang Qing.

"Damn it, there's no need to say that!"

Ridiculously bad? You won't even be on my team?

How dare you say that!

"But you are the protagonist," Jiang Qing consoled, "and I like you most among all the characters. You are very good-looking."

"You look good, why don't you practice?" Ying didn't show any shyness at all, and insisted on reasoning with Jiang Qing, "The intensity will change, but the good looks will last a lifetime."

"No, that's too weak." Jiang Qing shook his head. "Besides, there are powerful and good-looking characters in front of me. Why should I train a weakling with only one elemental power?"

Ying blinked her eyes. "Are you trying to...show your affection to me?"

Such a stiff show of goodwill.

If you showed half the level of scheming you do, you wouldn't have embarrassed me this much.

"Is it obvious?" Jiang Qing felt a little uncomfortable.

"Let's skip the game part," Ying thought for a moment, "Anyway, I'll definitely help you with this!"

Ying patted her chest and said confidently.

Jiang Qing showed her unexpected sincerity, and she was willing to help Jiang Qing.

"But speaking of which, are you being so frank because the intelligence you have is limited to this point, or because you have other confidence and feel that you no longer need the intelligence advantage?"

Ying was still a little curious.

The former is easy to understand, but the latter... Jiang Qing is now a follower of Thunder God, and the upper limit of this identity should be the level of [Original God].

The reason why the Dragon Kings Rodrak and Tevarin are so powerful is that the gods' followers are only a part of Their power. Not counting the power of their followers, They are also powerful elemental life forms in the world.

Jiang Qing is different.

The power of the Familiar is at his core, just as he describes the Skirmishers.

The power of the three earthly rulers is the Heart of God plus their own demon power, and the three of them resist the Heart of God in various ways, while the only thing the scattered soldiers can rely on is the Heart of God of Thunder.

But relying on the Heart of God, the scattered soldiers are qualified to reach the strength of the Demon God.

But Jiang Qing's reliance could not get him across this gate.

The Eightfold Son of God has the blood of a great demon, has practiced for five hundred years, and is also a follower of the God of Thunder. Yet, he finally stopped at the door to the demon god level.

Jiang Qing's conditions are not even as good as those of the Eightfold Son of God, so he is even less qualified to cross the threshold.

So he had something else, something that gave him the confidence to cross the demon's door and reach a higher position.

Ying was very sure.

With Ying's knowledge, many things can actually be quickly described by finding similar scripts from memory.

The seal only sealed her power, but not her memory.

As an immortal being who travels between worlds, her knowledge is a treasure trove that humans cannot even imagine.

Her long experience allowed her to remain absolutely calm in the face of most disasters, because she had dealt with them more than once.

The only thing she couldn't hold back was when it came to Sora's disappearance.

The same was true of Jiang Qing's sudden confession. She could probably guess some possibilities.

"Most choices people make come from their inner confidence, or they simply don't have a choice." Jiang Qing looked quite relaxed. "I was able to make this choice because I have the initial strength to participate in the high-level game in this world."

"Are you able to participate with your current strength?" Ying raised her eyebrows.

"It's still a little bit short now." Jiang Qing said with a smile, "but it will be soon."

The feedback of Thor's power will soon elevate him to the limit of human beings. At this level, with a little more effort, he will be able to surpass the limit of human beings and become a true demon god.

Although...it's most likely just a demon god on Heulia's level.

"So confident?" Ying thought for a moment, "That's good news. After all, we are friends."

As for friends, it is good to have more cards in hand and be stronger.

Lv7, level 80-90.

The pinnacle of the game is level 90. If you go higher, it should be the time when Vanessa ascends to Sky Island and becomes a god.

But within the same level, there is actually a gap in strength.

When Jiang Qing and Youla are at the same level, with Youla's fighting power, there is a high probability that she can hang him up and beat him.

The power of Thundergod's followers can raise Jiang Qing to Lv7, but the specific level will not be very high, at least not level 90.

This level is the level where one can truly ascend to godhood and reach the Sky Island.

It is a channel reserved for true geniuses.

And Jiang Qing just can't be considered a true genius.

But in theory, once you reach Lv7, the next time you add points you will be at Lv8 - it seems like this is still a fixed level bonus.

81 adds to 91, 90 adds to 100...
Theoretically, the latter will definitely make more money, and the experience pool will become higher in the later stages, which is the norm in the game.

As for the current Teyvat, the stronger it is, the slower it grows.

But just like the three strategies of best, middle and worst, I know which one is the best, but the best one has a bit high requirements, so I can only choose the middle and worst strategies.

Ying was able to hold the lady's coffin lid firmly when she had three elemental forces. From this perspective, her strength was directly raised to 80+ in the three versions, which is closer to the middle number.

When she had the four elemental powers, she obviously did not exceed the limit of the Demon God. During this period, the level should be 80+ close to 90.

At the beginning, she was still sealed and was almost an ordinary person.

Judging from the range of his abilities, this guy is truly a genius. His three versions have crushed the lady's five hundred years of hard work.

But considering that Ying's initial strength was actually even higher, she was not getting stronger, she was just breaking the seal that bound herself. Jiang Qing could still understand her growth momentum.

According to this expressiveness, in the case of the five elements, she is at least a demon god.

Ying's eyes rolled around.

She was guessing based on her own knowledge, for example, guessing Jiang Qing's cards based on other things in the light novel.

But the girl wasn't serious.

Because of Jiang Qing's friendliness and their friendship, Ying was unwilling to speculate too much.

With her strength, she still follows the principle of entrustment and does things for others in exchange for what she wants. It can only be said that she has become accustomed to life on the side of order.

Otherwise, if Ying had been a little more irritable, she wouldn't have been driven around and worked so hard all the time.

As far as commissions are concerned, there are definitely more ways to get paid than just busying yourself according to the client's requirements. There are also simpler and freer ways.

Rita explained one of the methods: exchanging your life for your information.

However, Ying never thought of these methods.

"Okay, I've revealed enough of my cards," Jiang Qing said with a smile, "it's your turn now."

"Me? What else can I say?" Ying asked in surprise. "According to what you said, you may know me better than I do. Do you need me to reveal anything?"

"I only know your experiences in Teyvat, but I don't know your past stories."

Jiang Qing stretched out his hand. "I've been so frank, you can't just not say something, right?"

"You want to know my travel stories?"

the girl asked softly.

"I've always been interested, but I was too busy before, and I didn't know you very well, so I didn't dare to ask." Jiang Qing said frankly, "Now I dare to ask."

Ying was still a little hesitant.

This development seems a bit bizarre.

This person doesn’t seem to be interested in my story. Could it be me that he is interested in?

But Jiang Qing didn't say that, and Ying certainly didn't have the nerve to ask directly.

This was not a busy starry night.

Even though Jiang Qing knew that he might encounter even more difficult troubles in the future, and that his opponent might have already torn his cards into pieces, Jiang Qing remained indifferent and just listened to a girl's memories of the past.

[It must have been demolished.]

Jiang Qing was very sure.

This is a Thousand Layer Pancake problem. If you suspect that your enemy has done something, but it seems that he has not done anything, then you will guess whether he has predicted your guess, and then start fighting with the void and making guesses.

Just like now, if the desert people were beaten to death, Jiang Qing would be able to understand it.

Because based on his understanding of the Fatui, this group of people not only do bad things, but also know how to do bad things.

If such a person makes arrangements in advance, it would be normal for him to destroy all the cards in Jiang Qing's hand.

It would be fine if there were two or three pieces left to fight for, and the cards on the field were neat and clean, but this is not good enough.

If Jiang Qing saw that the Desert People seemed to be still quiet, he would not feel fortunate. Instead, he would only think that his guess was predicted by the Fatui, and they had set up other means behind the Desert People.

The main theme is persecution delusion.

The Fatui must reveal what preparations they have made so that Jiang Qing can relax a little.

but······
He lowered his eyes and looked at the girl sitting cross-legged beside him, and put these speculations aside for the time being.

The difficulty of the story of the Layered Abyss is that I have completed all the world quests and the activities are over, ugh...
