Chapter 315: 151 Role-playing_2
"Everything here is related to school, but the hues are all biased towards cold white tones. It's clear that this must be someone's memory, their remembrance of school life,"
This is the shallowest layer.
Of course, if this story were described in text, it would plainly tell the audience that this is one person's distorted school career.
However, in reality, when you are actually immersed in it, you don't get so many text clues, no such obvious hints or indications.
Jian Zou Pian Feng said,
"Is the roasted sweet potato vendor one of the very few people who can bring him joy?"
Zhou Baiyu nodded, feeling that everyone's comments were very accurate.
The next to speak was still Xinkui:
"If... If, say, the meaning behind killing more than three thousand students is about reaching the pinnacle of learning, then in his eyes, it seems that learning itself means battling with other people."
"Although he detests such a scene, it has to be said that he actually regards these students as enemies, right?"
"Although my grades were poor when I was in school, and I can't understand the world as seen through the eyes of a genius, but... but I always feel, it shouldn't be like this."
"Perhaps the overly competitive atmosphere of this school has led to some students having different thoughts from others."
"Or maybe, could it be that he has a pair of parents with equally aggressive mentalities?"
Zhou Baiyu smiled.
"Xinkui, you did great. In the future, you all should keep looking at this game, or rather, this recruitment, in this manner. Please try to remember every image, even though each can be interpreted in many ways. But as you encounter more clues, the ways of interpreting them will become fewer until only one possibility is left,"
Zhou Baiyu started to explain the entire story he had seen.
Although Karlando had no interaction with Zhou Baiyu, and Zhou Baiyu could not possibly have seen Karlando's "Containment Manual."
But if one day, one of the top figures of the Pantheon were to meet Zhou Baiyu, he would definitely be very eager to turn Zhou Baiyu into a game or a significant NPC within his own game.
Because Zhou Baiyu's deductions are very similar to Fang Xuan's life as described in the Containment Manual.
Of course, the two would inevitably meet.
After narrating the general content, Zhou Baiyu said,
"So the difficulty lies in time."
"Xinkui's strategy is not wrong. In the S-tier difficulty, the pathfinder challenged was probably Fang Xuan's childhood. What we're challenging is his high school period."
"During childhood, he had many things he wanted to try. Maybe he liked playing games, maybe reading comics, or reading books? Or perhaps, he enjoyed painting."
"But his parents didn't care about what he liked. They only instilled the skills they needed into him."
"So he hates playing the piano, but is forced to learn it, because with his talent, if he doesn't master a piece, he'll be criticized for being lazy."
"So I guess, the 'mark of laziness' Xinkui mentioned, is probably this kind of thing."
"Of course, what time is the happiest? A person's life is probably happiest only in kindergarten, or even just after birth."
"If we chose the easy difficulty, then maybe... we would see the world through the eyes of a young child."
"But let's not dwell on that; we chose the highest difficulty, we've made it through the campus part, and next we're heading into the most grueling part—the adult section."
"It's also Fang Xuan's corporate drone life, but it's predictable that it will be very different from the corporate life of a normal person."
At this point, Wei Ai Chong Dong Yi Da Wu, who had been silent the whole time, suddenly spoke up:
"But I always feel that he... on what grounds?"
Zhou Baiyu was stunned for a moment.
Wei Ai Chong Dong lifted his head, no longer timid:
"He's just a dead child who had everything but lacked freedom."
"On what grounds? There are always such people in the world, born with a starting point unreachable by others in a lifetime, yet they always feel so tragic. The very things they disdain are what many people dream of."
"Isn't it just a lack of freedom, isn't it just a childhood arranged by parents? But I think, if it weren't for such arrangements, he might have ended up even more depraved."
Obviously, Wei Ai Chong Dong Yi Da Wu didn't quite like the protagonist of the game.
Zhou Baiyu said,
"Everyone is a different individual, at the least, he exposes his genuinely inner thoughts."
"After all, people have different educations, they see different things, and their understanding of the world varies."
"Anyway, going forward you all need to think carefully about how to deal with this."
"Pay attention to all the text information, because it's the simplest and easiest to acquire."
With fifteen minutes to spare, Zhou Baiyu slowed down his pace of speech:
"Imagine, if a person encountered various problems during their childhood and youth, then in their adulthood, the issues could become even more twisted."
Sima Kaoyu nodded, pondering and said,
"The stages we have encountered before were someone's kind college life, next is the malicious corporate life. Literally... this person named Fang Xuan, seems to have completely fallen."
If this is the state of being good, then what level of evil might it be?
Zhou Baiyu furrowed his brows, noting this as well.
Clearly, Fang Xuan's life seems to have taken a completely twisted turn.
