The Answer to the Question, How to See Through an Illusion

The patrol officers didn't seem to think dinosaurs were anything particularly terrifying, which is quite baffling.

Just then, a female resident from next door came out of her house and shouted impatiently, "Who is it? Shouting in the middle of the night, can't a person get any sleep?!"

Upon hearing this, Li Si anxiously called out, "Sister Wang, hurry back inside!"

But the dinosaur was too fast; it knocked Sister Wang to the ground with a single swipe of its claw.

Sister Wang was immediately terrified and turned to Li Si for help.

"Xiao Si, save your sister!"

However, Li Si simply reached out and locked the door, then said through the peephole, "Sister Wang, I'm sorry, I'm not some saint. Good luck to you."

Then, the dinosaur's two little claws grabbed Sister Wang from the window in the corridor and pulled her out of the building.

"Ah!"

Hearing the screams, Zhang San and Li Si rushed to the balcony and looked outside.

The two were immediately terrified upon seeing it.

It turned out that the dinosaur saw Zhang San coming and, right in front of Zhang San, started eating Sister Wang...

To their utter surprise, Sister Wang was eaten alive!

As she was being eaten, Sister Wang cursed at Li Si and the others, "Li Si, Zhang San, I hate you! Your fate will be the same as mine!"

Before she could finish speaking, Sister Wang stopped breathing completely.

The man-eating dinosaur, however, was flashed with a bloody light.

It roared towards the sky, and its size increased at a visible rate.

Just as Zhang San and Li Si were filled with fear, the kindergarten director finally called Li Si.

Li Si hurriedly answered the phone. The kindergarten director on the other end said, "Li Si, I've brought people to your house. Where is the dinosaur now?"

"It's near Building 8, right downstairs from my apartment."

"Great! Hang in there, we're on our way!"

"Persist? How are you expecting us to persist? It just devoured a person alive!" Li Si roared. "What kind of monster have you created?"

"This..." The headmaster seemed taken aback as well.

Zhang San quickly grabbed the phone and asked, "Director, did you bring a special tranquilizer gun?"

"Yes, we brought the tranquilizer gun. I think that should be enough."

Li Si snatched the phone back, cursing, "Enough my foot! That dinosaur ate my neighbor's house, and now it's several times bigger!"

"How is this possible? I only added some Tyrannosaurus Rex genes to it, I never expected it to turn out like this?"

"However, tigers eat people, and it's normal for dinosaurs to eat people," the zoo director said. "Anyway, you don't need to worry about it; leave it to me."

Five minutes later, the principal quickly led a group of people to the entrance of Building No. 8.

"The dinosaur is right here! Catch it quickly!" The zoo director spotted the enormous dinosaur immediately.

It was still lingering in the same spot, seemingly taking a post-meal walk to digest its food, just like a person.

And at this time...

Then Zhang San and Li Si heard a commotion.

Wang Er called at that moment, "Old Zhang, Old Li, are you both alright?"

"Did the headmaster take people there?"

"We're fine for now; the principal has already brought people over."

"They're currently entangled with dinosaurs."

Looking from the balcony, they saw a thick, long tranquilizer gun firing a huge syringe at the wandering dinosaur.

The syringe was as thick as an adult's arm.

Good heavens, if this were used to prick someone, it would immediately anesthetize them to death.

Anesthesia can also be harmful.

If medication is used improperly, it can easily lead to death from an overdose of anesthesia.

The dinosaur was clearly caught off guard; its brain was like a walnut kernel. Although it possessed human-like intelligence, it couldn't yet comprehend what a tranquilizer gun was.

The syringe was inserted directly into the dinosaur's neck.

Just minutes later, the dinosaur collapsed, sending dust flying everywhere.

If Gao Linzhi here, he would be able to see that the distribution and trajectory of those flying dust particles do not conform to the laws of physics.

This is perfectly normal.

The illusions people see are constructed by their own minds and do not completely conform to the objective laws of reality.

This is actually the point that allows you to distinguish between an illusion and a hallucination.

After all, even when people are in a hallucination, their minds remain clear.

Although the memory was altered, the physics knowledge learned and the brain's reasoning ability were not directly changed.

Therefore, if one is gifted enough, one can distinguish whether what one sees is an illusion.

After all, being in the Illusion Realm is not a dream; it's just that the scene you see is fabricated.

If it's a dream, it's hard to tell.

After all, when a person is dreaming, the brain is not fully awake; it deceives itself.

And at this time...

When the dinosaur fell to the ground, there was finally no more noise outside.

There was a knock on the door. "Zhang San, Li Si, we've anesthetized the dinosaur, please let me in for a drink of water."

This is yet another flaw.

In such a tense situation, who would even think about drinking water?

The important thing is to lock up the dinosaurs as soon as possible.

Just as Li Si was about to open the door, Wang Er called to remind him, "Old Zhang, Old Li, don't open the door yet. I just asked someone, and the zookeeper only brought two zookeepers. Do you think they can fight the dinosaurs?"

Zhang San immediately asked in confusion, "That's not right, we saw the zoo director personally anesthetize the dinosaurs."

"Is what you're seeing the truth?" Wang Er hinted over the phone.

Clearly, Wang Er had already sensed something was amiss.

But they didn't dare to say it directly.

Zhang San frowned slightly, then went to the door and said, "Director, you said the dinosaur has been caught. Could we see the dinosaur after it was anesthetized?"

"What are you talking about? Didn't you already see it from the balcony upstairs?" the director asked in surprise. "What's there to see? I've already had Xiaoqiang and the others carry the dinosaur to the car."

"That dinosaur, once it grows up, will be much heavier than a truck. Will Xiao Zhang and the others be able to lift it onto the truck?" Li Si realized something was wrong.

What happened today is so strange.

All sorts of things that defy common sense have happened.

But I always felt that this was normal and had no doubts whatsoever.

"It feels like a dream," Li Si muttered to himself.

"Oh, you're right, this dinosaur is too big to keep. I'll euthanize it when we get back," the zoo director said casually. "Hurry up and open the door, come and help."

Zhang San also noticed something was wrong, so he called Xiao Qiang.

But Xiaoqiang's phone rang next door.

"Director, didn't you say that Xiaoqiang and the others carried the dinosaur onto the car?"

"Then what's with this ringing sound?!"

"I'm sorry, I lied to you. Xiaoqiang and the others have already been killed. The dinosaur is now..."

Before the principal could finish speaking, the awakened dinosaur approached the building window, stuck a sunflower seed in, and killed it instantly.

The dinosaur then devoured the three of them, increasing its size several times over.

Zhang San increasingly felt that something was wrong.

From beginning to end, this doesn't make any sense in reality.

It's like a third-rate novel, or a bizarre dream.

They clearly saw Xiaoqiang and his friends anesthetize the dinosaur and then carry it onto the car.

The zoo director, however, said from outside the gate that several people had been eaten by dinosaurs.

Now that the dinosaurs have awakened, they've eaten Xiaoqiang and the others?

No, no!

Zhang San felt increasingly uneasy.

It's like watching a TV series that completely defies normal expectations, like "A House Full of Birds."

It was clearly a trap, a scheme to ruin Sha Zhu, ensuring he would never have a legitimate child of his own, yet he was still forced to support everyone in their old age...

That's really clever.

At that moment, Li Si quickly contacted the police again. "A dinosaur has appeared near my house. It has eaten many people and is now taller than a person."

"Mr. Li, we have already deployed police officers, but there are too many cars on the road. Please wait another half hour."

"No problem, but please bring enough firepower."

Li Si had just hung up the phone when Zhang San stared at him speechlessly.

Can you hold out for half an hour?

That's a dinosaur, not a tiger!

Dinosaurs could demolish buildings!

He then went to the balcony, staring intently at the spot where the dinosaur had appeared, and anxiously exclaimed, "Li Si, something terrible has happened! The dinosaur has disappeared!"

Looking out from the balcony, Li Si saw that the dinosaurs were indeed gone.

"It must have gone to find other owners; I need to notify them immediately."

Li Si then sent a reminder to the residents' group. "Attention residents, a dinosaur has appeared near Building 8. Please lock your doors and windows."

"Li Si, isn't Building 8 my building? How is my wife doing now?"

"Brother Liu, your wife has been murdered."

"Impossible, we had a fight yesterday. Can someone go check on her for me? I'll transfer 2000 yuan to her later."

Gao Xiang, who lives in Building 6 nearby, saw that there was money to be made and said, "Brother Liu, I'll go watch it for you. Remember to transfer the money to me."

Gao Xiang then grabbed a mop and used it as a weapon, went to Building 8, and started a live video stream. "Brother Liu, I'm downstairs at your building."

"There are no dinosaurs here, but I'm certain your wife has been murdered."

"Because I found her blood-stained clothes and an ID card on the ground."

"Her name is written on it."

"Li Si, could it be that you killed Sister Wang and then blamed it on a dinosaur?"

"How could that be? If I killed someone, would I need to remind you instead of running away?"

"I kindly reminded you, but you accused me of doing it." Li Si was very angry.

At the same time.

A huge dinosaur appeared behind Gao Xiang.

Then a shadow fell over him.

"Ah!"

Gao Xiang screamed in fear.

"There really were dinosaurs!"

Everyone in the group chat was screaming.

The dinosaur killed Gao Xiang with a single claw strike.

Then, on the ground, it ate Gao Xiang.

To their surprise, after the dinosaur ate the fifth person, it actually evolved the ability to shrink.

Then the dinosaur began to shrink, trying to squeeze into the building.

The two were so frightened that they turned around and ran downstairs.

They ran ahead, and the dinosaurs chased after them.

"Dad, Dad, why are you ignoring me?"

Ignore me, and I'll eat you all up!

The two were terrified.

The patrol officers arrived at that moment.

They fired directly at the dinosaur.

Although this dinosaur mutated, it was still a carbon-based organism.

Any carbon-based life form cannot withstand guns and cannons.

The patrol officers had already called in the SWAT team, who brought along high-powered sniper rifles.

After using armor-piercing rounds, they shattered the dinosaur's head with just one shot.

That's how this terrifying dinosaur was killed.

Wang Er called at that moment, "How's it going? The patrol officers didn't suspect you, did they?"

"Don't worry, the police have confirmed that it was all the dinosaurs' doing." Li Si looked at Zhang San.

The two suddenly gave a sinister smile.

"Now, our next step is to breed even more dinosaurs, and world domination will be a piece of cake."

And at this time...

Zhang San and Li Si suddenly sensed something was wrong.

"Strange, how did we end up saying those words?"

"Yes, it's like we're being manipulated by someone."

Suddenly, Zhang San laughed and said, "How ridiculous! I understand now, everything we just experienced was an illusion!"

Suddenly, a kitchen knife appeared in his hand, and he slashed it fiercely at himself.

The next moment, he opened his eyes.

What lies before us is no longer a magnificent pavilion or a modern metropolis.

Instead, it was a cluster of bamboo houses.

He returned to the game.

And now, he himself is still in East Wolf Village.

"How ridiculous, it turns out it was all an illusion."

"We three idiots weren't satisfied with being fooled once, we wanted to be fooled a second time."

"Damn it, those lousy game designers, is this even meaningful?"

Wang Er and Li Si were indignant.

However, Zhang San sighed, "It's not the game's fault at all. If you think about it carefully, you'll realize that the plot they just made up was actually very simple, at most at the level of an elementary school student, and we couldn't even see through it."

"There's nothing we can do; we have preconceived notions."

"Yes, we took it as real, which is why we ignored it. If we had known from the beginning that it was fake, we definitely would have been able to tell."

Hearing this, Zhang San was speechless.

At the same time.

In the Official Built-in Group, top players were watching the mission livestream.

The game administrator actually extracted all the illusions the three people saw in their minds, as well as the things they did, and then turned them into videos to play for everyone to see.

This demonstrates that the game developers have reached the pinnacle of mastery in manipulating memory and the mind.

This alone demonstrates to top players just how powerful the game's official team is.

Anyone who tries to compete with the game is simply overestimating their own abilities, like a mantis trying to stop a chariot.

"These two idiots, no, these three idiots, they're probably only at a middle school level."

"You can't even see that?"

"Yes, the entire task logic is upside down. If it were me, I could tell it was fake in five minutes at most."

"I have three minutes."

"I'll take a second."

"Alright, alright, stop bragging. I'll let you try it next time, then you'll know whether it's true or not."

"Heh, they're all so wilted, they couldn't even last a second."

Someone immediately started driving.

And at this time...

The Skyfall's Most Handsome spoke up:

"Everyone has already reviewed the mission procedures for the three individuals."

Please write down the answer to the following question: If you were in this situation, how would you solve it?
