Inside and Outside the Script

Wenren Sheng watched Liu Jian's Truman World for three straight days.

The insulting labels piled onto him numbered no fewer than twenty in total.

Then Liu Jian would reveal another identity—his identity as an Otherworldly User—and slap them back hard.

And in Wenren Sheng's perception, Liu Jian's strength had progressed over those three days as much as Wenren Sheng's family did in an entire month!

That was right. This was an imitation Truman World.

In that movie, the protagonist was the only one who did not know the truth.

Hypnosis certainly existed, but it was strictly restricted. After all, it was far too easy for
