When There Are Too Many Protagonists, They're No Longer Special. It's All the Plot's Fault!
Around 9 PM.
Ling Yi, carrying Ling Shuang, flew in through the window.
After placing Ling Shuang on the ground, Ling Yi clapped his hands and said, "Sister, do you believe me now?"
Ling Shuang tidied her hair, which had been slightly disheveled by the wind.
He stared intently at Ling Yi: "So, are you still my brother or not?"
Ling Yi remained silent.
"How did my brother die?" Ling Shuang asked again.
Ling Yi scratched his head, unsure of what to say.
Ling Shuang didn't say anything, just stared at Ling Yi Ling Yi, quietly waiting for his answer.
"Ahem, your brother was trapped in Infinite Revive, and eventually he suffered a mental breakdown and died."
Ling Shuang remained silent, still staring at Ling Yi.
Ling Yi stopped hiding anything and recounted the entire process of the original owner's death in detail.
"Therefore, my brother's death was an inescapable fate."
"Yes, he Revive and died thousands of times, experiencing all sorts of ways to die."
"There's no escaping it, no way to escape it."
"Death brings Revive, Revive brings death."
"This vicious cycle of despair is suffocating to even think about."
Ling Shuang asked in a deep voice, "Then how did you break the cycle?"
"I have a system."
Ling Yi spoke, he pointed his finger, and a streak of blue light flashed past.
On Ling Shuang's wrist, there was now a silver-white cesium wristwatch.
" The Villain System allows you to gain Villain Points by harming the Protagonist."
"I told Ye Fan about the system, and we reached a cooperation agreement."
Ling Yi pointed to the wristwatch on Ling Shuang's wrist.
"The specific details of the cooperation are all included in the watch."
At this moment, Ling Shuang had already opened the Subsystem interface.
You are currently browsing its contents.
Their eyes lit up, especially when they saw the items in the Villain Shop.
"So, Su Luoxue, like Ye Tian, is also just a tool to you?"
"Not only Su Luoxue and Ye Tian, but also Xiao Chen, the Dragon King of the Dragon King Palace, Guo Fan, the Goddess Conquest System, Qin Wanwan, the Midas Touch, Qin Hao, the Life-Saving Immortal Cultivator, and Jiang Yu, the Suck-Up Guy."
"Huh?" Ling Yi paused for a moment after saying that.
"Wow, when did we get so many Protagonist?"
Ling Yi opened the Dragon Radar Map and took a look.
Ling Yi narrowed down the Dragon Radar Map to a range that could cover the entire North Leaf Province.
Originally, only six Protagonist were marked on the Dragon Radar Map.
But now, the number of Protagonist has reached twelve.
Besides Jiang Yu, who was only marked yesterday, there are six more now.
And these newly added Protagonist, apart from Zhu Wei from Dafeng City, were all found by Su Luoxue alone!
In other words, Su Luoxue found six Protagonist all by herself.
None of these Protagonist followed Su Luoxue.
Not only did he not follow Su Luoxue, they weren't even together.
They went their separate ways.
So, how do you farm points?
Ling Yi checked his Villain Points.
I checked the Villain Points's stats refresh history again.
"Something's not right!" Ling Yi murmured.
"What's wrong?" Ling Shuang asked, puzzled.
Ling Yi directly Sharing his Dragon Radar Map data with Ling Shuang.
"To gain Villain Points, you must attack and damage the Protagonist Protagonist."
"But according to Su Luoxue's Villain Points refresh log."
"These Protagonist all achieved their score-farming goals at almost the same time."
"And during this time, Su Luoxue and the main Protagonist he had targeted were not together at all."
"How exactly were these points obtained?" Ling Yi had clearly fallen into the trap of point-farming, or rather, the system's rules.
"As long as you hurt the Protagonist, you can get Villain Points, right?" Ling Shuang asked.
"Yes!"
"Does that mean you have to fight face-to-face to rack up points?"
"That's for sure..."
At this point, Ling Yi suddenly stopped.
"Yeah, it doesn't mean you have to beat up the Protagonist in person to get points!"
"You can score points by attacking and damaging the Protagonist."
Ling Yi then checked the purchase logs of the "tool person" in the Villain Shop.
Upon seeing the Life and Death Talisman skill, I instantly understood Su Luoxue's method of remotely racking up points.
"This Su Luoxue is something else, actually eating all that food by herself."
They have such a great way to boost scores, yet they don't reveal it.
As expected of a villain.
Su Luoxue didn't say anything, but Ling Yi had no choice but to.
This remote scoring method will greatly improve the efficiency and speed at which the "tool" (player/support character) earns Villain Points.
Hiding it away wouldn't be in his interest.
Ling Yi directly sent out the method for remotely farming points with the Life and Death Talisman in the Subsystem chat window.
Then I closed the Heaven.
I opened my Main System.
[ The Great Villain System ]
[Host: Ling Yi ]
[ Battle Power: 39000]
[ Villain Points: 560,000 (Can be directly added to Battle Power, can be exchanged for items in the shop, the only way to obtain them is by attacking the Protagonist; the more injured the Protagonist is, the more Villain Points!)]
[ Villain Shop ][Click to Expand]
[ Auxiliary Subsystem ][Click Settings]
Their Battle Power is close to 40,000.
Villain Points: 560,000.
And this 560,000 is just the Villain Points for today.
Ling Yi used Villain Points he had previously earned from Ling Yi to buy Spirit Stone and maintain the passive effect of the Body Refining Art.
Ling Yi's Battle Power is basically enhanced by the Body Refining Art.
However, as Battle Power increases, the Spirit Stone consumed by the Body Refining Art increase exponentially.
However, the rate at which Battle Power increases will also accelerate.
Ling Yi was very satisfied with this.
"Are all twelve of them Protagonist?" Ling Shuang asked with some surprise after looking at the Dragon Radar Map.
"Right!"
"There are just too many Protagonist in this world!"
Ling Yi nodded. "Who says otherwise!"
"And I suspect that these Protagonist are just the tip of the iceberg; there will be many more to come."
"This doesn't make sense." Ling Shuang frowned.
Even if this world is a hodgepodge, it is still a world; the only hodgepodge is the plot.
"If there are too many Protagonist, then these Protagonist can no longer be called Protagonist."
"A world with only one Protagonist is the only reasonable approach."
"These are all just fake Protagonist."
"That makes sense, but who knows who the real Protagonist of this world is?" Ling Yi shrugged.
Then he saw Ling Shuang staring straight at him.
"Sis, why are you looking at me like that?"
"You don't actually think I'm the Protagonist, do you?"
"Isn't that right?"
"Impossible, I'm just a minor villain, the weakest kind."
"Yes, it's the Villain System; even the Protagonist has become your tool."
Ling Yi was unable to refute this for a moment.
It seems that it really is true.
Could it be that I am the Protagonist of this world?
"It doesn't matter. No matter what, becoming stronger is the key. As long as you're strong enough, you don't need to care about being the Protagonist, the villain, or the plot."
As he spoke, Ling Yi transferred 100,000 Villain Points to Ling Shuang.
"So generous?" Ling Shuang was somewhat surprised.
"You're a villain too, and a villain of a higher rank than Su Luoxue," Ling Yi said.
"I reckon the Protagonist who corresponds to your villainous role must be incredibly powerful."
"One hundred thousand points can rapidly raise your strength to the current world's Limit."
"That's enough for you to protect yourself."
Ling Shuang didn't say anything more.
She could roughly guess that Ling Yi's purpose in doing this was to make amends and to continue the Karma.
"My brother's death was not your fault." Ling Shuang stood up and walked towards the door.
"It wasn't even Ye Tian's fault."
Ling Shuang opened the door and turned to Ling Yi, saying, "It's the plot's fault."
After saying that, he left the room and closed the door behind him.
