"Thank you, but I don't need it for now~"

【Do you want to execute the wake-up procedure?】

"Trouble~"

[Received, it is now 22:15 on January 2, 2049, and you will wake up in one minute. 】

It took Mo Tan about two minutes to adapt to the sudden night after leaving the game cabin. After all, it was still sunny in the game when he logged off. This kind of experience is no longer surprising in this era when mental simulation devices are prevalent.

, but every experience still brings him a hazy sense of illusion.

It feels like you are in the gap between spirit and reality, which is novel and intoxicating.

"It's a pity that time is precious~" Mo Tan dispelled the wonderful feeling of dissonance in a very short time, and sighed with regret: "And since two days ago, the time under the night has become more important to me.

It has become extremely precious..."

He made himself a cup of coffee with only sugar and no milk, but he did not take the time to drink it immediately. Instead, he put it on the table at hand, and then came to the soft sofa and fell straight down.

.

Close your eyes and start thinking ~

【Who am I? Do I really exist? 】

[I can control my own behavior, such as gently raising my finger like this...]

[But does this process really exist in ‘reality’? 】

【Do my emotions come from my ‘original heart’? 】

[What does ‘original heart’ mean? How do people prove their existence? 】

[Is all of this in life a predetermined script, or is it a pure product that has no position between chance and necessity? 】

【Do I really exist? Why am I who I am? 】

【……】

This seemingly half-hearted thinking process is not the result of Mo Tan suddenly getting nervous, but a subconscious self-hypnosis process. His focused but meaningless thinking has only one purpose, which is to actively transform his personality.

.

This method is so far the only conversion method that can guarantee a sufficient success rate, and it does not cause much harm to himself.

Thinking is wonderful, and so are human beings. We often enter a wonderful state of 'detachment' under certain circumstances, as if we are observing ourselves from the perspective of a God who no one knows where we are.

This is not a lie. At least some people (the one who is typing the keyboard in front of the monitor at the moment) have had a similar experience. The strange idea of ​​"questioning and denying one's own existence" emerged from the random thoughts during insomnia.

attempt.

In short, it is to find all kinds of evidence that can prove one's existence. For example, if you want to move your finger, then order yourself to "move your finger", and then use another angle to question it, from actions, thoughts, dimensions,

Destiny exists until existence.

And at a certain moment in this process, a confusing feeling will come, as if a layer of water is covering the world between you and the outside world, and your thoughts and behaviors are isolated. Although you can still control your body, you can't control your body.

There will be a brief delay...

A somewhat scary, but also very interesting state.

I called it 'upper level thinking', and successfully entered this state several times in subsequent deliberate experiments. To be honest, the experience was not very good, as if I had isolated myself from everything around me.

, not even sure whether it exists.

[Note: The author’s personal experience does not know whether it is widespread. Friends who are interested can give it a try, but please do not take it seriously. Maybe I am really not mentally normal, but you may not necessarily.]

So, the detour is over and let’s get back to the business.

After many years of trying, Mo Tan found that this state he accidentally discovered could very well help him to 'convert'. Although this process would consume a lot of energy, it was still his best experience so far.

A good choice, among which he is the most proficient in the process of transforming personality into the [Absolute Neutral] state.

After all, he is the most normal personality in daily life, and his personality is relatively average (not mediocre). At least it is not as extreme as the other two, and it will not be too troublesome to switch...

So after a while, when Mo Tan escaped from that somewhat strange feeling, the chaotic and always smiling look in his eyes had faded, replaced by a gentle and lazy temperament.

"Coffee..." He walked to the cup of coffee on the corner of the table, hesitated for a moment, then took out a small bag of instant sweet milk from the drawer and poured it in. He sighed: "It's better to add a little milk.

"

Mo Tan, who drank the entire cup of coffee in one breath, immediately felt a lot more energetic. After stretching, he lay back in the game cabin. After remembering the current time, he logged into the game.

…

[Your spiritual connection has been detected and personal information is being synchronized...]

[Connection completed, reading character information]

[Welcome back, the absolutely neutral Black Brahma, will soon enter the realm of innocence, wish you a good night]

"Sure enough, no one noticed~" After Mo Tan regained consciousness, he found that he was sitting on a bench on the central avenue of Dieyan City. There were many pedestrians around at this time, but no one noticed that a big job had appeared out of thin air.

People, this made him sigh: "What kind of manipulation has the system done to the perception of these NPCs? Or is my sense of existence too meager?"

In fact, this is of course the impact of the system...

Mo Tan thinks so just because he is very aware of how flamboyant or upright he is at times, but if compared with other people, the [Absolutely Neutral] Hei Fan is still quite normal.

He stood up slowly and continued walking towards the church in the city after a whole day (he had originally planned to go to the church before he was disconnected yesterday). He walked among the people with different skin colors, occupations and even races.

Enjoy yourself.

Although he had already experienced the bustling Anka Market and the large and vibrant Pato City, Mo Tan, who was in Dieyan City at the moment, was not dissatisfied with the comparative desertedness.

I can always easily integrate into the surrounding environment, and I can keep up with the rhythm like a local citizen no matter where I go. This is not an extraordinary talent, but just enough to be happy with the situation...

If Mo Tan's character at this time were isolated and thrown into Metamorphosis, he would probably have to say: "It smells so good!" when he first ate a meal in the village.

He is the neighbor who smiles at you when you get up in the morning and go for a walk~

He is a melon-eater like you who laughs from ear to ear when he hears a funny joke~

Like you, he likes playing games, reading comics, and reading novels, but he doesn’t like eating vegetables~

He will feel guilty, fearful, sympathetic, compassionate, hesitant, and indecisive~

He usually doesn't talk too much, but when he encounters a topic of interest, he will chat with you for a long time with great interest~

He won’t put reflective films on the backs of his shoes or take secret photos of people’s skirts with his mobile phone, but he will unconsciously take a second look when he encounters big white legs while walking on the street~

He is just such a guy, an 'ordinary person' who is not unusual at all in this era of population explosion.

It's just that on the premise of being smart enough, he also has the other two characters who are always dealing with troubles. No matter how 'ordinary' he is, no matter how [absolutely neutral] he is, he cannot be too mediocre.

No matter how fuel-efficient the lamp is, the more it is exposed to those messy things, the fuel consumption will go up...

"Why aren't you online today?"

"You can play 12 hours a day!"

"The magic power release technique you mentioned is quite useful!"

"Even if you don't need to gather, let's go to the military camp and show up~"

"Why did Yinna look at me with a strange expression? What did you say to her?"

…

Probably out of boredom, a certain gas-guzzling female hacker had no problem sending him harassing messages without getting a reply from 'Tan Mo'...

Mo Tan thought about it and replied to her. The general content was, 'I often work at night, and the online time may not be fixed. If you have enough time, please upgrade as soon as possible so that you can fly with me in the future.' This kind of nutritious thing

.

Then he left an email address for Futaba, one with a very average level of encryption. With Sun's skill, he could probably confirm his true identity with just a little investigation, and then further connect 'Hei Fan' and 'Mo Tan'

'Draw an equal sign, so that the other existence of 'Black' and 'Tan Mo' will be safer~

As for the similarity between the real name and Tan Mo's game nickname, in today's era of huge population, it can almost be attributed to coincidence. Even if Futaba becomes suspicious, it will only make her more confused at best. Then

So what?

As a result, not long after he had just replied to Futaba's message and before he had even reached the place, a message box popped up in the corner of his field of vision.

[Player: Chen Wangyu (absolutely neutral) applies to add you as a friend]

He didn't need to recall to remember that this was the girl named Yuchen who had accompanied Yi Dong at the party before. She was very introverted and a little shy of strangers.

Well, it seems that I told everyone at that time to add each other as friends later, but later there was no bonus. On the one hand, the online rate of 'Hei Fan' was too low, and on the other hand, everyone was quite new to the game in the early stage.

I guess he is too busy with a lot of things. Even Yi Dong didn't bother him much anymore after being let go by Mo Tan...

The game Innocence Realm does have a unique charm.

"Hi~"

After choosing to confirm, Mo Tan casually said hello through the email system on the friend interface, and received a reply within a moment.

"Hey, I finally found you online O(∩_∩)O~ What is Mo Tan doing? I have added all of your friends now!"

Mo Tan replied simply while walking. The general meaning was that he had been a little busy recently and didn't have much work. He had just joined the autonomous army of a certain territory in the game. Some time ago, the priest in the city tricked 20 people with a scripture.
To be continued...
