Chapter 1265 Time flies
Lying is one of the required courses for most intelligent creatures, and it is also an indispensable part of the world. For people, in many cases, its role is as good as Air and sunlight are the core elements for our survival.
Since we have discussed this beautiful and cruel word many times before, we will not go into details here to avoid digressing too seriously.
All in all, no matter which angle you look at it, Mo Tan is very proficient in the art of lies. It is worth mentioning that Mo Tan here refers to 'Mo Tan', not a certain person. Mo Tan under one personality.
In fact, if there is a reason or necessity, even a 'lawful good' personality with a relatively correct outlook on life can tell quite sophisticated lies, and given his temperament at the time, his The credibility is often much higher than that of deceivers of the same level.
As for when his personality is "absolutely neutral", Mo Tan, who derides himself as an ordinary passerby, is actually very good at telling lies. This is mainly due to some wise sayings related to pork and pig running. In short, although his mood swings will have a negative impact on the effect of lies. Impact, but most of it is very real unless it involves a girl.
However, no matter how high his business proficiency is in the above two states, in the field of lies, Mo Tan will never be able to compare with himself under the 'chaotic neutral' personality. In fact, Except for that girl with too many nerdy elements, there are probably very few people in this world who can compare with Mo Tan under that personality.
Perhaps, Mo Tan under the other two personalities can deceive others, but only when he is a pleasure criminal (called by Yi Dong) can he deceive himself perfectly.
Deceive your own heart, deceive your senses, deceive your subconscious.
Even if it is just improvisation, the man who goes by the pseudonym 'Tan Mo' in the Innocence Realm can casually say a large number of remarks that are clearly labeled as 'lies' but have an inexplicable core of 'honesty'. Only he can convince others while convincing himself, isolating the 'concept' from the 'label' and 'core', and banishing it from his thoughts before he needs it.
In fact, even if Yao Qianhan can really read minds, as long as Mo Tan under the 'Chaotic Neutral' personality enters the state earlier and is determined to unfold a subtle lie before the so-called 'mind reading' takes effect, then unless the former can turn the page like a book Just read Mo Tan's mind at will, otherwise even if you perform real-time mind reading, you will never be able to find any clues.
Of course, Mo Tan knows very well that those guys with great supernatural powers can still dig out their deepest secrets if they are willing, but he thinks that the probability of this is slim, because after all, he is just a small person, even though he is Yi Dong Best friends, but this factor probably only makes those people more tolerant of themselves.
In short, Mo Tan's decisive decision that day in the chairman's office created an insurance for him, an insurance that was full of loopholes but extremely reliable. From the moment he returned home, he had made up his mind. From now on, whenever you are in the same situation as Yao Qianhan, you must try your best to put yourself in a state of 'chaotic neutrality'.
Although this is likely to cause a lot of inconvenience to his future campus life, as long as it is effective, it is worth it.
In addition, during the three days of August 16th, 17th and 18th, Mo Tan also carefully recalled the blank period in his social life, and carefully checked whether Are there any clues that could reveal his mental state hidden inside? It has to be said that he is very satisfied with himself, because even during the period when he lost contact with Yidong, Mo Tan, who knew that he would one day be on the right track, was still Great care was taken and no conspicuous evidence was left behind.
As for the imperfections that were not very obvious (for example, sometimes he bargained for a good deal until the vegetable stall owner became a monk, but sometimes he obediently paid the marked price), he felt that he could use 'lack of parental care', 'departure of friends' and ' I tried to explain my premature puberty, but if I couldn't, I admitted that my IQ was indeed very high and I was extremely precocious, so I stayed anonymous and behaved strangely during that time when I was feeling world-weary.
In any case, Mo Tan thinks he has done the best he can with regard to the troubles in the real world, and in the realm of innocence, he has spent a relatively comfortable period for the time being. Although the three days and nights were as compact as ever, there were no serious troubles.
To summarize briefly -
The previous discussion with the Awakening Dragon in the public space was not in vain. Although the battle did not last long, the character of 'Mo' returned to the role. After the game, [Akatsuki]'s proficiency did not change at all, but when he was sparring with Yaya in the backyard of Linyin Inn, he discovered that [Akatsuki: Ruthless Sword]'s weapon experience points were accumulated incredibly fast. It only took less than ten minutes of fighting back and forth, and the experience value of [Dawn·Ruthless Sword] form increased by a full 0.8%. Adding the experience value accumulated by Mo Tan before, it was exactly 1%.
Don’t underestimate this 0.8%. You must know that Mo Tan had a passionate fight with Anthony Dabbs for such a long time, and it was under the circumstances that both parties tried their best to use the sword form. The experience has only increased by 0.18%.
Needless to say, after Mo Tan discovered this result, he immediately fought with Yaya for another ten minutes. As a result, [Xiao·Ruthless Sword] did not gain any growth this time, and the experience value remained stubbornly at 1%. superior.
Mo Tan was not disappointed, but Yaya enthusiastically proposed to fight for a while, and even borrowed Jadeka's staff to blow himself up into a frenzy. As a result, Mo Tan, who had planned to stop, had no choice but to He continued to fight with Yaya without holding the weapon of shabby quality until he ran out of energy and could not get up again.
Living up to expectations, the experience value of [Akatsuki Ruthless Sword] has indeed increased, from 1% to 1.01%.
After that, Mo Tan (after recovering his physical strength) tried several other forms, but because he only used the sword form when fighting the awakening dragon, there was no reaction at all in other forms.
So, after two days of experimenting, the rules were summarized.
First of all, click until it’s over... or in other words, the experience value that can be provided to [Akatsuki] by sparring without harming life is very small, almost to a ridiculous level, and in a real fight, even if the fight takes place in a public space , [Xiao] is still able to grow relatively significantly.
According to Mo Tan's speculation, the experience he gained while fighting in public spaces should belong to [Hidden Experience Value]. These experiences will not be directly added to [Akatsuki]'s corresponding form, but will be added to his When you are in the realm of innocence, you can add it up little by little through fighting. Before the experience reserves in the public space are exhausted, even the most perfunctory discussions can add a lot.
Although he has not had the opportunity to actually fight in the Innocence Realm, Mo Tan feels that the effect should be the same as in public space. Even if it is different, the effect will only be better, and experience will most likely be added directly.
In fact, in the past three days when he was 'Mo', he was mainly studying this. The people accompanying him were Jadeka, Yaya, and Ji Xiaoge because of Artisan Town and the Saint of Fortune Fiya. The business between Li and Li has become busy again recently, while Cordova absentmindedly strolls around Academy City every day. He seems to have something on his mind, and Mo Tan doesn't ask.
The chaotic neutral 'Tan Mo' has also been relatively leisurely recently. In view of the fact that the process of this exchange meeting has come to an end (in fact, the real 'exchange' of the big shots has just begun), so Diana's I have been very busy for a while. I have to go to the Academy City Mages Guild in the inner ring area almost every day. Occasionally, I will go to the Academy City Council of Elders with the Tuning Sage and Evie Lehman from the City of Miracles, and Will definitely take Futaba with me.
"Diana!! You obviously have nothing to do with me, why do you have to go with me? Are you afraid that I will be alone with Frank?"
After being forcibly 'appointed' by Diana again, I couldn't. Don't put off going to the library for the eighth time to meet Frank Hughes. When lining up, Futaba couldn't bear to complain: "How do you think he is lovable!"
But Diana just smiled lightly, said 'everything', and then Drags Futaba away after kissing Frank Hughes on the cheek.
I have to say that his girlfriend's "understanding" really relieved Mo Tan. After all, he knew very well that as they continued to conquer the copies given to them by Shu Ling and the tasks given to them by the system, even if everything failed According to the most ideal situation, Futaba's evaluation of Frank Hughes will become higher and higher, and accordingly, his suspicion of Frank, Tan Mo, will become more and more serious.
All in all, thanks to Diana's thoughtfulness, both 'Tan Mo' and 'Frank Hughes' gained a lot of free time. Naturally, he did not let these precious sands pass under his control. Instead of letting it flow through the cracks, seize every minute and second to do something that makes you feel happy. For example... to add trouble to a lady named Philly Graham who claims to be a high-quality local woman from the Innocence Continent, she casually added her part that seemed to be very beneficial to her, but in fact used several kinds of lace in the lace. The language added at least thirty additional clauses to the contract, tore it in half, and mocked the person for three hours in a gentle manner without a single curse word.
Oh my god, this was the first time that the Saint of Wealth had been insulted like this. What made her even more aggrieved was that she couldn't even reply.
Because manipulating a contract is like cheating in gambling. If you are not discovered, everything will be fine. But if you are exposed on the spot, no matter what people do to you, it will be reasonable.
In other words, Feiyali’s little tricks not only failed to get Mo Tan into the trap, but even got her into the trap. After all, Mo Tan’s next move was after tearing the contract in half. He restored it with magic tape in a minute, and claimed that he didn't mind plastering it all over the streets of Academy City, saying that this would not only attract investors such as the Gold Coin Chamber of Commerce and the Steam Foundation, but also provide benefits to everyone. Popularize demonic, ancient elven and sylvan languages.
It is foreseeable that although this negotiation on the beverage business has not yet been settled, it is difficult for Philly Graham to get too much advantage from it. In fact, listen to her I accidentally let it slip, as if I would be thankful if I didn't suffer too much in this business.
However, although 'Hei Fan' heard these words, 'Tan Mo' did not take any action after Feiyali's bottom line was lowered. Otherwise, Feiyali might soon react to this Link Zelda How did the gentleman see at a glance that there was something wrong with the contract lace?
In addition, he still 'reluctantly' communicates with Ms. Evie Lehman who likes to change eyeballs... To be precise, he should be occasionally attracted by the latter. Go for a walk or hang out somewhere where Diana won't be caught, Ever since Mo Tan bought her a bottle of [Qian Kun's Throw] worth 888,888 gold coins at the bar of Feiyali's property [Black Mary], and asked for a bottle of [Golden Jade Brilliance] worth 666,666 gold coins for herself, she became more and more... I am getting tired of Mo Tan.
Of course, the girl named Evie Lehman did not think that Frank Hughes or Link Zelda...or anything else would really come up with the money. Buying two bottles of juice, what she sees is the fact that she can't see anything.
If Evie Lehman’s previous claim that she wanted to be Motan’s lover was just a joke, then after this alluring unknown gradually swallowed her up, she seemed to have taken her words a little bit seriously. Something happened.
However, this does not mean that she has no threat. In fact, in this Academy City, Evie Lehman can even be ranked third in the threat to the concept of 'Ink Tan'!
Above her is Futaba who can kill 'Tan Mo' at any time.
The one who ranks at the top of the list, and has become the one who is worried about Mo Tan, is the one who pretended to be Cole Schulun a few days ago and attended the gathering as 'Mo' in his place. His acting skills A mysterious bastard who was so superb that even Mo Tan himself deceived him.
But strictly speaking, it may not be a mystery. After all, Mo Tan always has a hunch that the shadow hidden in the dark is most likely the person who almost exonerated the Marshall family in the Violet Empire.
In Mo Tan's mind, strictly speaking, no matter which personality Mo Tan is under, figuring out that person's identity and purpose is firmly ranked first, even more than killing both parties. Ye, negotiated the soda business and other matters.
He must take action before the Academy City exchange meeting ends!
