Chapter 46 Acting involves the secrets of the gods
"Don't be so excited." Mr. Devil waved his hand gently:
"Actually, I only have a partial understanding."
"No matter how small the clue is, please tell me!"
Little Sun fought hard, but Mr. Devil, who was in the spotlight, suddenly turned his head and looked at Mr. Fool, as if asking: "Can I say something?"
"What are you looking at me for? I don't know what you are going to say?"
Klein felt a little embarrassed when he saw Mr. Devil's gaze, but he also thought of one thing from Mr. Devil's attitude -
When Ms. Dai Li entrusted him to hint the "acting method" to the captain before, she once said that all those in the Church of the Goddess of the Night who have understood the acting method will be required to swear an oath and cannot disclose it to others.
Mr. Hanged Man, who is suspected to be a member of the Church of Storms, also does not know the acting method. Does this mean that all the existing gods only have a "secret" attitude towards the acting method?
So when Mr. Devil heard that more than 2,000 people in Little Sun knew how to act, did he decide that there was something wrong with the god they believed in?
Thinking of this, Klein couldn't help but become curious, so he maintained his persona of the Fool and nodded slightly as permission.
After receiving Mr. Fool's approval, Mr. Devil seemed to be relieved and turned his attention to the Hanged Man:
"Mr. Hanged Man may have also wondered why acting, a simple method that can greatly reduce the probability of low-level extraordinary people losing control, was sealed by the church."
"Why are you mentioning me again?" Mr. Hanged Man frowned, feeling that the matter was not simple, but he had indeed considered this issue, so he nodded, "Yes, the church has stood for thousands of years. It makes no sense that it has not concluded
Acting method, but they did not inform the underlying extraordinary people."
"Correction." Mr. Devil raised a finger and shook his head slightly:
"The Seven Righteous Gods Church not only fails to inform them, but also provides an oath to all official extraordinary people who understand the acting method, requiring them not to spread the acting method in any way."
"Why is this happening?" Miss Justice asked subconsciously, and Mr. Devil smiled slightly at her and said:
"Because it's not good for the gods."
"God?"
Everyone was shocked. Why would the performance of a mere low-level extraordinary person affect the gods?
"Since you know the acting method, do you know the principle of acting?" Mr. Devil did not answer directly, but asked rhetorically.
Miss Justice immediately repeated the example of entering the castle in disguise that Mr. Fool told before. Just when Mr. Fool was worried that his example was wrong, Mr. Devil smiled and said:
"It's a wonderful metaphor, but have you ever thought about where the guards in the castle come from?"
"This..." Miss Justice was at a loss for words, but Mr. Devil was minding his own business and said:
"Each potion, or each extraordinary material, hides a special imprint. You can think of it as the consciousness of another existence. The higher the level of the potion, the more powerful this consciousness is.
, because it is often mixed with a part of the spiritual imprint of the 'former owner', so it is usually called spiritual residue. In a sense, it can be regarded as the main culprit that causes extraordinary people to go crazy and even lose control."
"Is this mental remnant the guard?" Miss Justice asked thoughtfully, and Mr. Devil nodded, "Yes, but the problem with the impersonation method is also here - you bypass the guard through the impersonation method, and you can
It means that these guards have not been knocked down, um, by the way, there is a very important key to the acting method, which is 'you are just acting', um, Mr. Sun, have you ever taught this in Silver City?"
Mr. Devil suddenly crooked the building, but it did not make Miss Justice and Mr. Hanged Man feel uncomfortable, because the words "you are just acting" gave them a new understanding of the acting method.
When Little Sun heard what Mr. Devil said, he immediately nodded and said:
"Yes, we have emphasized in the general education class that the only thing to pay attention to in the acting method is that 'you are just acting'."
"That's good." Mr. Devil showed an expression of relief, and then continued:
"The acting method is just acting, because if you are so involved in the play that you forget your original self, then these mental remnants may take advantage of it and blend into your spirit, making you no longer you, well,
In a sense, this is also a type of madness. To use that example, you were too absorbed in your role, and ended up forgetting to leave after getting the treasure. Instead, you were forced into the guest position by the guards in the castle.
Become a real 'guest'."
When Miss Justice heard this, she felt like she only knew how to hide in dark corners and observe others. She couldn't help but shudder, and then she asked nervously:
"So the church conceals the acting method because it is worried about this situation? But what does this have to do with the true God?"
"That's not the case." Mr. Devil shook his head and said:
"Actually, you can think of the spiritual residue as the branches of a giant tree. The impact on each low-level extraordinary person is just the last branch, a leaf. And the true god also has to fight against madness."
"The true god also has to fight against madness?" Klein felt that the amount of information was a bit overwhelming, and he almost reached out and pinched his eyebrows.
When the topic came to this point, even Miss Justice didn't dare to guess casually, and Mr. Devil just kept to himself and said:
"Each potion seems to be independent, but there is some kind of mystical connection. Low-sequence extraordinary people will be affected by high-sequences, and high-sequences will also be affected by low-sequences. Of course, because of their strength,
Regarding the gap, this impact is generally very small."
Having said this, Mr. Devil's tone changed and he said in a somewhat nasty tone:
"Miss Justice, you said before that acting is like pretending to be a guest, sneaking in, and then stealing the treasure. Have you ever thought about where the castle and the guards will go after the treasure is stolen?"
"Could he go to a high-sequence Extraordinary... or even a true god?" Miss Justice made what she thought was the boldest guess, but Mr. Demon shook his head, pointed to his chest and said:
"It's still in your body, lurking in the potion. Even if you die, some of your spiritual residue will also join in, and even strengthen this spiritual residue, and have a negative impact on the next person who takes the potion.
Influence."
Audrey, who did not know the law of immortality of extraordinary characteristics, did not realize the meaning of the next person who took the magic potion, but the Hanged Man and Little Sun, who knew this knowledge, were slightly moved in their hearts.
But then, an even bigger thunder was thrown by Mr. Devil——
"Because everyone uses the acting method, in a sense, your mental state will be close to the spiritual residue of the potion. In other words, after the person who has learned the acting method dies, the mental residue in the potion will not change.
, and even get 'repaired', well, Mr. Hanged Man, do you know how extraordinary people who don't understand the acting method can 'master' potions?"
Hearing Mr. Devil's question, the Hanged Man subconsciously replied: "Ordinary extraordinary people will stabilize their spirits through meditation and suppress the... well, the spiritual residue in the potion, just like taming a beast, suppressing it and taming it.
it……"
When the Hanged Man said this, he suddenly felt that a certain key had been opened. He found that he was gradually understanding all this——
"Could it be said that if ordinary extraordinary people 'master' the potion without using the acting method, it will weaken the spiritual residue in the potion? In this way, the impact on the true god can be reduced?"
