"This ability is harder to use than I thought." After leaving the captain's cabin, Snow walked on the deck facing the hostile eyes, muttering silently in his heart.
He tried his ability in front of Edwina before, but it didn't work as well as he imagined.
It is difficult for Shakespeare's ape to rewrite what is currently happening. For example, he tried to make Edwina wear a ring on the spot. Even if the monkeys had customized a corresponding script, after consuming all the available spirituality, they could not
It was not successful because the early stage was too short to trigger enough coincidences.
It's like making 100,000 yuan in the same amount. If you make enough money in one minute and make enough money in a year, the level of difficulty required is completely different.
But correspondingly, through this series of trials, Snow also discovered some details that were not reflected in the sequence inheritance information. For example, after successfully completing a certain script, the monkeys' scripts will begin to converge, and they can use
To judge whether your ability has been successfully activated.
Taking advantage of this effect, Snow tried to make Edwina make three associations. They were that the paradox pathway might be the sixth pathway hidden by all five companies, and that the paradox might be the vest of the resurgent Russell.
The Ten Commandments of Paradox may involve some kind of ritual.
Based on the realization effect of these three associations, he judged that Edwina knew the knowledge of adjacent sequences, knew the existence of the whole five families, and also knew to a certain extent about Russell's possible recovery, but did not know Kabbalah
The Tree of Life and the Ring have ten such pieces of information.
Compared with such micro-management, the two macro skills provided by the sequence itself are much easier to use than expected. For example, Snow used [Going in the opposite direction] to successfully avoid the ending of Edwina returning the ring directly;
Devenna's letter to Huang Beibei was also the result of [Different Routes to Same Destination].
Of course, the one-click macro operation is convenient, but it is also very rigid to use. It is indeed worry-free and labor-saving for short-term use, but it will be too much trouble for long-term layout.
After all, destiny is a variable that is constantly being disturbed. The longer time passes, the greater the disturbance. Even a slight flap of a butterfly's wings may cause a huge storm in the future.
…
"Who dropped this gold coin?" In the evening, on the Golden Dream, the sailor responsible for scrubbing the deck suddenly saw a gold coin stuck in the corner, and his eyes suddenly flashed with curiosity.
Yes, it's not greed, but curiosity, because few people on the Golden Dream carry cash.
As a pirate with a female captain who is good at teaching others... ah, the adventure ship, the crew of the Golden Dream has a completely different lifestyle from other pirates. Although they also have no money left on them, they are not like other pirates.
Instead of spending money on women and fine wine, under the guidance of the captain, they buy properties, manors, deposit them in banks, or simply invest in stocks and bonds. Only those responsible for defrosting and purchasing will see real money.
"Is it the little girl who was left behind? Or the gambler? Or the pretty boy?" The sailor thought of the gambler who gambled away their drinking quota for a week before leaving, and then thought of the pretty boy who was so handsome that he looked inhuman.
, suddenly felt a toothache.
But no matter who it belongs to, gold coins are always innocent.
He used the action of scrubbing the deck to get close to the gold coin without attracting anyone's attention. The moment he was about to pick it up with the action of bending down and scrubbing, he suddenly felt a pain in his head, and his human instinct made him subconsciously move towards it.
When he shrank back, he happened to bring over the bucket for scrubbing the floor. As the precious fresh water was splashed out, a cursing voice could be heard from behind.
He hurriedly pinched the gold coin and turned around to see what happened, but he felt as if he stepped on something under his feet, followed by a scream accompanied by a curse.
The sailor immediately realized that he had stepped on someone, and he suddenly raised his right foot, but just in time a wave hit. The slightly tilted deck was actually nothing to these people who live at sea all year round, but just as he adjusted his posture
While doing so, he stepped hard on the overturned bucket.
The deck of the Golden Dream suddenly became chaotic, with jeers and curses rising one after another, while Snow, who was standing in the shadows, raised the corners of his mouth.
"If possible, I hope you won't tease my crew." Suddenly, a clear and coherent voice came from his ears. Snow turned his head and was watching Edwina slowly walking towards him.
Snow smiled, spread his hands, and said with a casual smile:
"It's just a little joke. I don't think it's any more disrespectful than doing those little tricks at the cabin door."
"I will restrain them." The corners of Edwina's eyes twitched slightly, but she nodded slightly, but deep in her eyes that seemed to contain infinite wisdom, there was still a trace of doubt.
"In terms of function, it is similar to the winner's misfortune, but the mechanism of action when analyzed is completely different. Although it is only equivalent to the ability of Sequence Five, it is extremely complex, including strengthening, weakening, distortion, divination, etc.
This kind of power, is this the power of the 'paradox' path?"
When Edwina heard the reply she just got last night, her curiosity was rising uncontrollably. She had never heard of this path, but it seemed to be mutually exclusive with the reader. She wanted to observe further. This was also
The reason why she never gave an answer or signaled Snow to disembark.
But what she didn't know was that all her choices were within the scope of Snow's ability. Although that was a choice she would make, all of Snow's actions were to prompt her to make a decision.
A result that has been fine-tuned to suit your choice.
This is also the trick that Snow discovered through constant attempts——
You cannot just rely on consuming spiritual energy to enlarge/reduce the possibilities, but you must cooperate with your own subtle changes to make the change of destiny smoother.
Just like what Russell plagiarized in "The Fable of the Shipwreck"①, you don't just wait for fate to favor you, but you have to act in accordance with the pace of fate. Even if fate feeds you, you still have to open your mouth.
Just when Snow began to select the next prank from the scripts submitted by the monkeys, a small sailboat slowly approached at dusk. Even from a long distance, Snow could tell that it was exactly
The ship that carried Wright away last night.
The boat was quickly hoisted by the Golden Dream. The sailors who had been prepared rushed forward and began to carry the supplies on the boat into the cabin. However, the two people who got off the boat did not start like the others.
He moved the supplies on the ship and headed straight towards Edwina.
And Snow, through his continuously strengthening five senses, vaguely heard the reports of the two people——
"Captain, there seems to be a problem with several of our contact points... Also, the bounty for that guy Daniz... I heard that he teamed up with someone to kill him..."
Note ①: "The Fable of the Shipwreck" is one of the fairy tale fables written by Russell for his children. Because of its educational significance, it was included in the Intis student textbook. The main meaning is - a devout believer on the sea.
Encountering a shipwreck, the passing pagans wanted to save him, but he firmly believed that he was favored by the gods and was waiting for the gods to save him. After drowning, he asked the gods, but the gods told him that he had arranged several encounters for him.
He encountered rescue, but he gave up boarding the ship...
ps: It’s easy to understand if you use a substitute for the two macro skills. The effect of [Different Paths to the Same End] is similar to [Rolling Stone]. No matter how you fight, it will eventually lead to the predetermined development, while [Going in the opposite direction] is similar to [Golden Experience Requiem].
It can never reach the reality of xx. Of course, the power is definitely not that strong.
